Chapter 327 Comrades and brothers

On the night of December 13, 1912, Riga Castle.

The celebration party has ended, and the beautiful words of Hitler and Stalin, two good socialist brothers, have been finished. Now it is time to discuss the division of the "liberation service" market behind closed doors. There are many people in this world who need to be liberated. It should be that the two socialist countries, Germany and the Soviet Union, need to work together to liberate them.

"Comrade Hitler," said the fatherly leader, sucking his pipe, smiling, and in Georgian Russian, "Our Red Army is now fighting against the Polish colonists in Ukraine and Belarus, and this is also to liberate the oppressed Ukrainian and Belarusian people. Your country's socialist Germany must support us, right?"

Adolf Hitler listened to the translation of Earl of Schulenburg, and then looked at Marshal Hessman. Whether the Soviet Union can now balance Brest and Ukraine on the right bank, the military will have to make a decision. After all, once Poland and Ukraine are finished, the buffer between the Soviet and Germany will no longer exist.

"Germany certainly supports the liberation of Ukraine and Belarus on the right bank," said Hessman. "But the armistice agreement we have signed with Poland cannot support you with force."

Stalin shook his head, "No, no, there is no need for force, as long as you give up your support to the reactionary Polish government!"

In Stalin's view, his Red Army has not yet captured Brest because the Germans are supporting Poland.

Hessman shrugged, "Comrade Stalin, let me tell you the truth. Apart from the release of prisoners and the return of equipment stipulated in the Pod Armistice Agreement, we have not supported White Poland in any form. In fact, we really hope that you can capture Brest so that we can carry out protective occupation of the remaining Poland under the Pod Armistice Agreement."

This is basically the truth. At least Germany has not provided German weapons and equipment to Poland, and the Poles and Ukrainians are using their own weapons to resist. Therefore, Stalin's Red Army did not seize any German weapons and equipment from the Poles.

"We are allies who jointly oppose colonialism!" Stalin spit out the smoke, "Can you not show any sincerity?"

"Comrade Stalin," Hessman shook his head slightly, "In fact, we are not allies, at least we have not fought side by side yet!" He paused and said, "But we can still provide some convenience to the Soviet Union."

He looked at Hitler, saw the leader nodding, and then continued: "We can allow the Red Army's ground troops to temporarily cross the Buge River and encircle the Brest Fortress. However, after completing the mission of annihilation of the Brest enemy, they must retreat east of the Buge River."

It is definitely easier to surround the Burest Fortress, because the 12 forts outside the core fortress of Brest are all built east of the Bure River. The defense along the Bure River behind the fortress is relatively relaxed, with only the trench defense zone along the river. After all, it is difficult to fight before the Bure River is frozen, but after the Bure River freezes in winter, infantry can attack from the river surface, so it is very difficult to defend it.

"But the core fortress of Brest itself is also very strong!" Voroshilov immediately took over the topic. "If you can provide a few 'Big Beshas', we can solve it, you can use them to pay for the oil debt... we can pay a very high price!"

Hessman personally translated Voroshilov's words into German and told Hitler, "You can agree, but..." His face suddenly sank, "The Soviets must ensure that they deal with the Poles who were standing in the Brest Fortress!"

The meaning of dealing with it... should be "Katin Forest".

But this time it was not 20,000 people, but at least 200,000 people...

"This is no problem!" Stalin waved his hand and at least 200,000 Polish lives were about to be explained. In fact, Hitler did not make any requests, and Stalin would not spare them, at least they would not spare their backbone.

Even if the Polish people's liberation issue was happily resolved, today's talks will continue, and the two sides soon had differences again.

"Comrade Stalin, the people of Finland and Türkiye do not need to be liberated, and these two countries are not imperialist colonies."

"But Finland is part of Russia!" Stalin said, "so the Soviet Union has an unshirkable responsibility to the Finnish working people and has an obligation to rescue them from dire straits."

Finland is part of the old Russian Empire, and not Boro and Lithuania? Hessman looked at him and looked as usual. Hitler. The German leader said carefully: "What about Türkiye? It's not part of Russia, right?"

Stalin spread his hands and smiled and said, "That is the only way for the Soviet Union to liberate the people of the Middle East! The Soviet Union will not turn Türkiye into a franchise republic, you can rest assured."

Don't worry? Don't worry, let you get stuck in the "oil road" of Europe?

Hessman gritted his teeth and smiled, then looked at Hitler again. The German leader remained silent, "Who are you going to liberate first? The Finnish working people or the Turkish working people?"

The Earl of Schulenburg quickly translated his question into Russian.

"Finland!" Stalin said with a smile, "Of course it is Finland. If it is solved, the north of the Soviet Union will be safe, so that we can feel at ease to go south to liberate the oppressed people of the Middle East and India."

...

Just as Stalin and Hitler, a socialist leader with gay and brotherly friendship, discussed the cause of human liberation in Riga. The prime minister of the world's largest colonial empire was meeting with friends from the United States.

The person who came was US Secretary of State Hull, who brought good news to Chamberlain and also had little good news.

The good news is that the US Congress met and passed the amendment clause of the Neutrality Act. Now the United States can finally act as a democratic arsenal and export weapons and equipment to the democratic colonial empire to fight against socialist countries that oppose colonial oppression.

The advanced F2A Buffalo fighter and P40 Tomahawk fighter will be shipped to the UK and France soon!

As for the bad news, US President Roosevelt declared when he was questioned by Congress: amending the "Neutrality" does not mean that the United States supports Britain and France, nor does it mean that the United States supports colonialism. In fact, the United States has always opposed colonialism because colonialism is not in the interests of the United States...

Yes, although the United States also had few colonies, the United States itself opposed colonialism and did not have much interest in maintaining their colonial rule in the Philippines in 1939.

Moreover, colonialism poses an obstacle to the entry of American companies into colonial and semi-colonial markets, so the United States has long held an opposition to colonialism. However, the United States does not intend to use fierce war to oppose colonialism unless the European colonial empire wants to turn an independent American country into a colony.

Although everyone knows the moderate anti-colonialist stance of the United States, when the Soviet Union and Germany issued the "Declaration of the Liberators", they reiterated their anti-colonial stance again, which is probably not good news for the two colonial empires of Britain and France.

"President Roosevelt believes that the declarations issued by the Soviet Union and Germany do not reflect their true position." Secretary Hull carefully used the words, "Germany had requested the return of their colonies not long ago, and the Soviet Union is still invading Poland and Ukraine, which shows that they are currently taking a deceptive position."

In fact, the colony that Germany lost due to the Treaty of Versailles does not mean that they do not anti-colonial because they can also liberate them after the colony. As early as when Italy invaded Abyssia, Germany expressed its anti-colonial position. At that time, they believed that European countries had no meaning to the colonial rule of poor overseas countries and was a total waste.

However, the Soviet attack on Ukraine on the right bank was a bit exposing the fox's tail!

"Therefore, the president believes that the Soviet Union can fight for the target." Hull said, "Our Minister of Commerce Harry Hopkins has met Stalin in Moscow, and Stalin did not reject our kindness. The key now is just how much kindness the British Empire can bring? Prime Minister, I think you are very clear that if you want to truly block Germany, you cannot join without the Soviet Union!"

The way to defeat Germany is of course blockade! If the Soviet Union takes the initiative to attack Germany, the British Empire will definitely not be able to afford the price. If the French are to hit the impregnable Ziegfeld defense line, it will only make France defeated soon.

"Actually, we are very willing to restore the Soviet Union to the territory of the Tsarist Russian Empire," Chamberlain said carefully, "and even include the entire Austrian Galicia."

This is an old and confused fox! Hull cursed in his heart. Chamberlain wanted the Soviet Union to cut German meat by himself. Can this be considered as the reward for Britain to bribe the Soviet Union?

"Mr. Prime Minister," Hull said, "the British Empire needs to show some sincerity and travel its past promise to Russia."

Chamberlain was stunned, his promise to Russia, Balkans, or... Türkiye?

Secretary Hull then persuaded: "Mr. Prime Minister, the Soviet Union and Germany are not intimate and unconflictful. From the perspective of local politics, the Soviet Union and Germany are simply mortal enemies. The reason why the Soviet Union cooperates with Germany and alienates Britain and France is because you betrayed the interests of Russia, an ally after the end of the last World War. If you do not show sincerity now, no negotiations with the Soviet Union will achieve results. The Soviet Union will continue to provide oil to Germany, so that Germany will have the capital to engage in a protracted war with Britain and France."
