ps: When I woke up in the morning, a fat man was very diligent in writing for everyone! Xiao Chao was very diligent, right?! Hahahahaha...

"After our head of state communicated with Japan, we decided to ask whether the Soviet Union was willing to join the Axis powers?!" This was the first sentence Ribbintrov said after seeing Kalinin. Ribbintrov did not exchange any greetings or any concealment, and looked at Kalinin directly.

"We now need an extremely powerful ally, which needs strong human resources and natural resources to support our wars. At the same time, it can assist us in the offensive and ultimately destroy the last reliance of Britain, France and the United States." Ribbintrov looked at Kalinin and smiled: "Obviously, the Soviet Union is in line with the conditions of our allies."

Kalinin did not answer this question immediately, and there was no expression on his face. But in fact, there was a shocking wave in Kalinin's heart, and all kinds of thoughts were twisted and turned.

For a moment, Kalinin suspected that this was the Germans' delaying plan to paralyze the Soviet Union so that the large number of troops hoarding the Polish border would launch a sudden attack, as they had done in Europe.

But after a while, he denied himself. Indeed! If he fought with the Soviet Union on the ground, no one could tell the final direction of the war. Even if they defeated the Soviet Union in the best result, Germany's losses would not be much smaller.

If the loss was too great on the battlefield of the Soviet Union, then the war against Canada and even the United States would not be carried out. For non-popular countries like Germany and Japan, the most important thing is human resources.

No one, no matter how good or precise weapons are, they are useless. Because unmanned weapons are just decorations. According to information, the Japanese have issued the eighth war mobilization order. They have suffered heavy losses on the Chinese battlefield, which directly leads to the current situation in Japan.

Although Germany did not suffer much in European countries, if the combat location was converted to the Soviet Union, their losses would definitely not be much smaller than that of Japan in China.

As long as there are hundreds of thousands of troops, it will definitely be a tragic blow to Germany. At that time, facing the surviving British Canada and the United States, which have almost no losses, Germany will have very low chances of winning the war.

"Mr. Ribbintrov, this matter is obviously beyond my authority. I need to report this matter to the Supreme Committee before I can give you a reply." Kalinin was silent for a long time before he held Ribbintrov's hand.

Ribbentrop smiled casually and said, "Yes, I understand this. But please ask all the Soviets to give me a reply as soon as possible. You know, the German generals hope to achieve military achievements. The head of state is already a little unable to suppress this. The victory in Europe made the Junkers too proud. The head of state means that they hope to continue to cooperate with the Soviet Union..."

Kalinin's face was gloomy when he heard this, nodded and left without saying anything. He could hear the threat inside and outside of Ribbintrov. If the Soviet Union did not agree to join the Axis powers, the war would become a necessary choice.

Those Germans who had been hoarded in Poland would undoubtedly lead the way to cooperate with the Japanese troops that had gathered in Afghanistan to launch a war against the Soviet Union.

Kalinin did not delay any. After returning to the theater command, he immediately formed a telegram and added his own analysis, sending all his views back to Moscow.

Then he personally smoked his pipe in the telegram room, quietly waiting for Moscow's response.

Kalinin's telegram also caused a stir in Moscow. The members of the Supreme Committee were fiercely arguing about this matter, and some people believed that they should choose to cooperate with the Axis powers.

Because the advantages of the Axis powers are now very obvious, and the whole of Europe is included under their rule. As long as they follow them, the Soviet Union will undoubtedly become the winner of the war and then have the right to participate in the distribution of the war dividends.

Opponents believed that this was probably Germany's delaying strategy in order to paralyze the Soviet Union and facilitate their launch of sneak attacks on the Soviets. They had done such a thing. Not long ago, France and Britain suffered this loss! We have to be careful.

At the same time, opponents also believe that the Soviet Union has no advantage in joining the Axis powers now. The distribution of war dividends is proportional to how much you contribute.

Germany will undoubtedly get the highest dividend after winning all wars, and Japan is no exception. As expected, Japan will win the rights they gain in Southeast Asia.

Italy has now obtained a part of North Africa, some Mediterranean islands, Corsica and the central part of western Greece. It has also won some benefits.

And what about the Soviet Union?! There is no doubt that Germany will not allow the Soviet Union to occupy Canada. Otherwise, the inflated Soviet Union will become a major enemy of Germany after the war. It is even possible that the war will end and Germany and the Soviet Union will fight immediately.

"It is impossible for the Germans to really work with us. What they want is to procrastinate and paralyze us. Even if they eventually throw out cooperation, I think this is the bait they release. It induces us to rebel against Britain and the United States. In the end, we have nowhere to go."

Zinoviev, who had resumed his job, was worried and said to Stalin and others: "The Germans gave us not as much as the British and Americans' benefits. After all, this war has now been related to the life and death of Britain and the United States, and they will spare no effort to support our development. From this point of view, Germany is considering more about using our human and natural resources. They will definitely limit the supply to us..."

"I agree with Comrade Zinoviev, and so do my opinion." Bukharin, who is also a member of the Supreme Committee, nodded and said, "The Germans have now gained an advantage. They will never support us like Britain, the United States and other countries. The most important thing is: we don't know whether the Germans are paralyzing us and then starting a war against us at the right time..."

Likov, who was also a member, frowned and glanced at everyone and said, "But the situation is very obvious now, Germany has gained an advantage. I would like to ask comrades, do you think we can win this war?!"

As soon as Likov said, everyone stopped talking. In fact, everyone was confident that the chances of the Soviet Union winning this war were too small. Maybe they could support it, but in the end they could not escape the defeat.

Unless the Soviet Union can support the United States to send most of its troops to the Soviet Union, there is still a possibility of victory in the war. Otherwise, the Soviet Union's fate will not be much stronger than that of Europe.

The Germans' strong offensive ability defeated the entire Europe in one battle. London, which had never been occupied by others, has now become a treasure in Germany. This has shown Germany's military strength in some aspects.

The Soviet senior officials were very clear-headed that their strength could never exceed that of the British and French coalition forces. Therefore, the small chance of winning a war was almost negligible.

"Then, let me tell you my opinion!" Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Stalin put down his pipe and looked at everyone and said, "My idea is to continue to maintain contact with the Germans. At the same time, he released news to the British and Americans through some channels..."

Trotsky couldn't help but smile when he heard Stalin's words. Stalin was preparing for both ways. If the negotiations with Germany were successful, the Soviet Union would join the Axis powers and choose to attack Canada.

If the Soviet Union and Germany did not agree, or if Germany planned to paralyze the Soviet Union and launched an attack, then the Soviet Union's secret discussions with Germany would cause high tension and attention from Britain and the United States.

They will try every means to disrupt the negotiations, and in order to make the Soviet Union stand on their side, Britain and the United States will definitely increase their aid to the Soviet Union. Otherwise, once the Soviet Union joins the Axis powers, Canada will be in danger by simply crossing the Bering Strait.

"Comrade Stalin, will this arouse the vigilance of Britain and the United States and cut off the assistance we are given to us?!" Likov said hesitantly: "These are too risky..."

Trotsky, who had not spoken, smiled and shook his head, and said, "Comrade Likov, I think this is probably not possible. We are too close to Canada. Just cross the Bering Strait to threaten the last reservation in Britain."

"So, Britain and the United States should not easily choose to turn against us. Moreover, the leakage also requires a skilled leakage. We need to show that we need to cooperate with Germany, but we also hope that Britain and the United States will increase their aid to give us confidence to win the war..."

Likov instantly understood what Trotsky meant. It was very simple. If the Soviet Union had secretly contacted Germany, then Britain and the United States would have noticed it after a long time.

Even spies trapped in Germany by Britain and the United States may report the news back. Rather than this, the Soviet Union itself secretly leaked it to Britain and the United States.

This aspect is to show the Soviet Union's attitude. If Britain and the United States did not give the Soviet Union confidence to win the war, the Soviet Union might not have chosen to rely on Germany.

On the other hand, it is to give Germany a reminder. Whether you really want to negotiate or be prepared to paralyze the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union will be prepared and will not let you succeed easily.

It has to be said that Stalin is now more mature and more politically wise than in history. The commotion caused by that civil strife has made him grow a lot. This even changed his attitude towards things to a certain extent.

"Tell Comrade Kalinin the telegram of our decision, and ask him to observe in the negotiations whether the Germans should sincerely negotiate with them or just delay." After some negotiations, the Supreme Soviet Committee finally made a decision.

Trotsky, chairman of the Supreme Committee, said to the meeting minutes: "As for how to tell the Americans..."
