The Third Reich: The Return of the King

Entering the city of Mosco, the situation in Mainz is not optimistic, there are basically not many people on the street, there is a bleak scene everywhere, the population of Mosco at this time is only about four or five hundred thousand, the population is indeed not very much, but such a bleak scene, but it is still surprising, it seems that the impact of the war on the livelihood and economy of the woolly bear still exceeds their expectations.

"Colonel Mainz, welcome to the Soviets, you are the highest-ranking foreign guest to visit the Soviets so far!".

The middle-aged man introduced Mainz very politely, and Mainz raised his eyebrows when he heard the news, and said with a smile: "I guess this definitely doesn't include those unpopular Allied troops, right?"

The military intervention of the Allied armies was not small, so it was normal for generals of higher rank than Mainz to participate in the war, and Mainz was certainly not the first or highest-ranking foreigner to arrive at the red woolly bear first.

However, the fact that others had come here to overthrow the rule of the red woolly bear, and that Mainz had come on a normal visit, had a very different meaning.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately recovered, he shook his head, and said with a smile: "The jackals have shotguns when they come, and the friends have good wine, Mr. Colonel is our friend, naturally different from those jackals!".

Mainz nodded, and accepted the other party's explanation, but the two chatted for a long time, and he didn't know who the other party was, and he always felt a little familiar, but he hadn't seen each other before, so he thought that the other party should be a more famous person in the hairy bear, right?

"Introduction, this is the current member of the Hairy Bear Committee, the head of the military - Comrade Trotsky!".

As if to see Mainz's confusion, at Trotsky's behest, the staff member in charge of the translation next to him immediately introduced.

This guy is actually Trotsky?

Now it was changed to Mainz, and I was surprised!

Trotsky's name was not particularly well-known in later generations, and he was much less famous than Lielin, Stalin, and even Khruchael.

However, at the time of the formation of the Red Hairy Bear, Trotsky's status was very high, even higher than that of Lielin, as can be seen from his position as head of the Central Military Commission, and the person who was in charge of the entire Red Reich at this time was not Lielin, but Trotsky.

The reason why this guy is not well-known in later generations is entirely because he lost the contest with Stalin's loving father, lost the opportunity to take charge of the huge Red Empire, and then was expelled from the woolly bear and wandered outside, although he founded the Fourth International, but this thing is no longer recognized, and even more so he was assassinated later, and died early, so not many people remember him.

Faced with the loser of this historical power struggle, Mainz looked at the other party with interest.

To be honest, Mainz doesn't have a high opinion of Trotsky, this guy has a lot of good cards, but he plays poorly because of his indecision, obviously Lielin wants him to inherit his mantle and take over the helm of the Red Empire, but this guy himself hesitated, and as soon as he hesitated, he immediately lost the opportunity to reach the top, and then he was defeated.

The political struggle between Trotsky and Stalin still had a great impact on Mao Xiong, even after Trotsky went into exile, his roots in the country were still not small, so in order to completely eradicate this threat, Stalin launched the Great Purge, of course, the purpose of the Great Purge was not only to eliminate Trotsky's supporters, Stalin's intention to sweep away dissidents with the help of the Great Purge, to increase the centralization of power and his own power was obvious.

This wide-ranging and long-lasting terrorist campaign led to the killing of a large number of government officials and generals in Mao Xiong, and Mao Xiong's national strength, especially military strength, was greatly weakened, which indirectly led to the invasion of the Third Reich.

Thinking of this, Major Mainz had a whim: if Trotsky had been given some support when Stalin had expelled Trotsky, would there have been a second civil war with the woolly bears?

If the Woolly Bear does have a second civil war, it will be another disaster for the Woolly Bear, and for the Third Reich, this is a great opportunity, no matter who wins the civil war in the end, when the civil war beats the Woolly Bear to the ground, what else can they use to resist the million-strong army of the Third Reich?

Thinking of this, Mainz felt that it would be good to try to get on good terms with Trotsky, after all, it would give him one more chance to weaken the woolly bear.

And if this indecisive guy really took Stalin's place, it would be better news for the Third Reich!

"Your Excellency, I don't know how many weapons and equipment your army currently has in hand, if you can, I hope to reveal a bottom line to us, so that we can make the next procurement plan!"

Trotsky did not know that the German colonel opposite him was playing his own mind, and he was now testing the colonel's tone little by little, according to his own plan.

The Germans left a lot of weapons after the war, and the intelligence officers of Mao Xiong had already reported this matter, but due to the intervention of the Allied countries, a large number of German weapons were towed away by the Allied countries, which made it difficult for Mao Xiong to judge how much the Germans still had in their hands.

So far, the only country willing to provide weapons to the woolly bear is Hans, if this country can continue to cooperate for a long time, it will be of great significance to the Soviet army, after all, a stable supply of weapons is of great help to solve the problem of insufficient equipment of the Soviet army on the front line, and the quality of the weapons and equipment of the German army is obviously better than that left over from Tsarist Russia, such things as the Makqin heavy machine gun, who uses it knows, with this thing, it will be much more convenient for them to deal with the Cossack cavalry! !

"According to the current procurement plan, I don't think there will be a problem for three years, you just need to make sure that the traffic lines along the way are safe!"

After a first-hand journey, Mainz lost hope for the safety of this line of communication.

It would be best if the German army's arms sales to the Soviet army were not known to outsiders, but if outsiders found out, not only the Soviet army would be in trouble, but the German army would also be in trouble, after all, the Entente side had already set up an arms control committee against the German army, which was responsible for supervising the disarmament of the German army and the production activities of domestic military factories.

If these people find out that Hans is selling weapons to the woolly bear, then this matter will be in trouble!
