The Rise of the Third Reich

"Nikita Sergeyevich, you still have a way. The Bolshevik Party needs comrades like you right now."

The political bureau meeting was over. Khrushchev, who had returned from India and looked a little "un-European" due to the sun, did not leave the Kremlin, but was called into his office by the father-in-law leader.

Stalin also wanted to know about the situation on the Indian battlefield. Now that the Great Patriotic War has suffered a major setback, most of Leningrad has become Petrograd, and the remaining half may not be able to hold it for long.

And the Russian Empire is really back now!

Under this situation, the Soviet Union had no possibility of ending the war in the short term. So we must make long-term preparations!

And if we want to fight a protracted war, we cannot just focus on the Western Front battlefield. Because fighting on the Western Front is nothing more than fighting for attrition. The current exchange ratio between the two sides is too unfavorable to the Soviet Union, and Germany has too much capital. The Soviet Union will definitely collapse in the end if they fight hard.

Therefore, First Deputy People's Commissar of Defense Pavlov and Chief of General Staff Zhukov, who returned from Kalinin City, both suggested that the Supreme Command pay attention to the Indian battlefield. Because the Indian battlefield seems to be a weakness of Germany and the European Community, and it is also a very important weakness.

India doesn't seem to be important, right?

That was the view of people from all over the world except the people of India in later generations. It was not the view of the Bolshevik Party in the Soviet Union in the 1940s.

Because the Soviet worldview contained a lot of words about exploitation, oppression, cheap raw materials, and dumping of industrial products. And the bitter-looking Indian Asan is a representative of the exploited and oppressed people of Asia, Africa and Latin America. The big market of India is a collection place for cheap raw materials and a dumping ground for industrial products for the European Community.

If the more than 200 million working people in the European Community want to live a decent life, they must severely exploit the 380 million Indian Asans.

If 380 million Indian Asans rise up in rebellion with the help of the Soviet Union and overthrow the European colonial rule, then the European community will not be able to live a good life and the people will be in dire straits!

By then there will be problems within the European Community, and there may even be a revolution... Wouldn't the Soviet Union be able to resolve the crisis in this way?

Well, it sounds ridiculous, but in the Soviet Union of this era, this is the truth of GC doctrine.

Since it is the truth of GC doctrine, it must not be wrong. As long as the Indian revolution can take place, the European Community will definitely be in big trouble.

"Comrade General Secretary, the biggest difficulty in the Indian revolution now is the inability to unite India's revolutionary and progressive forces..."

Khrushchev began to report on the difficulties encountered by the Indian revolution. Although the Indian People's Army, with the help of the Soviet Red Army, defeated the British-Indian army in northwest India and occupied many territories.

But the imagined "Great Revolution" did not happen. Because the two major local political forces in India - the Indian National Congress and the Indian YSL League did not respond to the revolution led by the Indian Bolshevik Party, they still pursued the original line and had small conflicts with the British and German colonists.

"Why can't it be condensed?" Stalin lit his pipe and asked after taking a puff.

He actually doesn't quite believe that the Indian revolution can bring down the European Community. The most likely to bring down the European Community is the UK. How could Germany and France collapse? However, the current frontal battlefield of the Soviet Union is too bleak. If India can be messed up at a relatively small cost, it will always be an encouragement to sluggish morale.

"The main reason is that we have doubts about our land policy and religious policy." Khrushchev replied, "Because the upper echelons of the National Congress Party are all high-caste Hindus, and the leaders of the YSL Alliance are high-ranking Said and Shai Grams (YSL caste in India), and most of the leaders of these two political parties are very wealthy big landowners.”

Great India has its own national conditions here! Whatever you do, you have to be "kind", and those who are "good at planting" will most likely be rich. The father of Gandhi, the great leader of the Congress Party, was the prime minister of a princely state, and the Nehru family, the second-largest figure in the Congress Party, had been high-ranking officials of the Mughal dynasty for generations.

The YSL Alliance is not bad either. Jinnah’s father is a wealthy businessman, and his mother’s family has been religious leaders for generations. The Bhutto family, close comrades-in-arms of Comrade Jinnah, are the largest landowners in Sindh Province, with an astonishing amount of land. It is said that it takes a long time to drive through their land.

Even the Indian Bolshevik Party, which was supposed to be the vanguard of the working class, was similar. The prominent figures were all extremely wealthy! They all came to the revolution with a large number of servants and all kinds of enjoyment.

In short, in this magical land of India, there are no people who cannot have enough to eat and start a revolution...at least not yet! The revolutionaries were all well-fed, and their families were richer than the others. The red ruble family brought by Khrushchev did not look down upon them at all.

"Is it possible to mobilize the people at the bottom?" Stalin asked, "I heard that there is cruel caste oppression in India, and the people at the bottom live a very miserable life. If they can be mobilized, a revolution that can start a prairie fire may break out in India. Fire."

Stalin said this because it was impossible for him to invest a lot of financial and material resources in India. The Western Front is now tight, so there is not much force to invest in the Indian battlefield. The best thing is to light a fire in India and start a prairie fire.

Moreover, when Comrade Stalin thought about it, wherever there was oppression, there was resistance. The untouchables in India were so miserable, how could they not want to rebel and stand up?

"Comrade General Secretary, we also want to give the YSL Alliance and the Congress Party another chance." Khrushchev said, "Because these two parties have huge influence, if they can cooperate with us, the British and German colonists in India will The rule will collapse."

The line of uniting the YSL League and the Congress Party was formulated by Comrade Serov, who had actual revolutionary experience in India. He is now the general representative and general adviser of the Soviet Bolshevik Party in India, and his job is to guide the Indian revolution.

However, his line seems a bit conservative, he does not believe in the masses of the people, and he hopes that India's top leaders will participate in the revolution.

"Okay," Stalin thought for a while, nodded and said, "Give me one last chance! If they don't wake up by the end of July, they will launch an agrarian revolutionary struggle in the North-West Frontier Province, Punjab, Balochistan and Kashmir!" "

"Okay." Khrushchev then asked for instructions, "What kind of struggle should we take against YSL, Sikhism and Hinduism in India?"

Now the Soviet Union has come into contact with religious bans - the souls of people who died after the victory of the Soviet Revolution are also allowed to enter various heavens. That's why Khrushchev asked this question.

"We must accept the leadership of the party," Stalin said, "This is a must!"

Yes, how can we not accept the leadership of the Bolshevik Party in matters such as going to heaven, going to hell and reincarnation? Especially in a place like India, which specializes in deities and scriptures, how can we manage it well?

…

While Stalin was briefing Khrushchev, Hersmann was discussing the Atlantic Ocean with Commander-in-Chief of the German Navy Raeder, the new Commander-in-Chief of the Air Force Richthofen, and Commander-in-Chief of Naval Aviation Jeshunek. War situation.

Something happened again in the Atlantic Ocean!

This time the trouble occurred in the North Atlantic. A reconnaissance plane taking off from Iceland discovered a huge American task force on the North Atlantic 500 kilometers west of Iceland!

The fleet has at least six aircraft carriers and five battleships, as well as dozens of cruisers, destroyers and auxiliary ships.

It was so majestic that it headed straight for Iceland, but it frightened Redl and Jeshunek.

Now the main force of the European Combined Fleet has gone south of Cape Verde, more than 5,000 kilometers away from Iceland! The total number of German naval aviation aircraft in Iceland is only a few dozen. Among them, the only ones with sea attack capabilities are a squadron of 12 Ju288s.

With this aircraft, even without the new disposable Spitfire, it could not stop the approaching US fleet.

"What do the Americans want to do? Are they going to land in Iceland?" Hersman stared at the sand table for a long time, still feeling confused.

Although there are not many aircraft and troops stationed in Iceland, and there are no shore defense artillery, the Americans can succeed if they really want to land. But what about after landing in Iceland? Now that the British mainland is on its knees, Germany has garrisons and airports in Ireland and Scotland, and it is not afraid of a big war with the United States in Iceland.

Moreover, the European Combined Fleet was not completely wiped out. They were just led to the South Atlantic by the Americans. The sea route of more than 5,000 kilometers was only a few days away.

In just a few days, even if the Americans successfully landed, they would probably not be able to defeat the small number of German marines (with a regimental battle group) on Iceland. Not to mention setting up defenses in Iceland to counter the German counterattack.

"It can't be to occupy Iceland, because this is a completely impossible goal." Hersman shook his head and already made a judgment, "I think this should be a feint, the purpose is to cooperate with the actions of the US military fleet in the South Atlantic. "

"But what does the US fleet in the South Atlantic want to do?" Navy Commander-in-Chief Raeder asked. "They didn't get close to Cape Verde, nor did they go to South Africa. Instead, they wandered off the coast of Brazil."

Hessman shook his head. He couldn't guess what the Americans were fussing over. A large fleet rushed out of the Caribbean Sea with great momentum, made a large circle in the South Atlantic, and is now near the coast of Brazil.

What do they want to do? Scaring the Brazilian people?

When Hersman was puzzled, Major General Stauffenberg, the new third operations officer of the General Staff (equivalent to the deputy director of the Operations Bureau), walked into the conference room and brought the latest news.

"Report, Air Force reconnaissance found that the main force of the Soviet Red Navy fleet left Molotovsk, and its current whereabouts are unknown."
