The Return of the King chapter 032

Entering the city of Moscow, the situation Mainz saw was not optimistic. There were basically not many people on the streets, and there was a desolate scene everywhere. At this time, the population of Moscow was only about 400,000 to 500,000 people. It is true that there are not many, but such a bleak scene is still surprising. It seems that the impact of the war on Mao Xiong's people's livelihood and economy has exceeded his expectations.

"Colonel Mainz, welcome to the Soviet Union. You are the highest-ranking foreign guest to visit the Soviet Union so far!"

The middle-aged man introduced Mainz very politely. Mainz raised his eyebrows when he heard the news and said with a smile:"I think this definitely does not include those unpopular Allied forces, right?"

The scale of the military intervention of the Allied Powers is not small, so it is normal for generals with a higher rank than Mainz to participate in the war. When it comes to the first foreigners to arrive at the Red Bear, Mainz is definitely not the first one, nor is it the highest rank. The tallest one. However, the others came here to overthrow the rule of the red bear, while Mainz came here for a normal visit. The meanings of the two are quite different.

After a moment, he immediately recovered. He shook his head and said with a smile:"When the jackals come, there are shotguns. When friends come, there is wine. Mr. Colonel is our friend, so he is naturally different from those jackals!"

Mainz nodded, accepting the other party's explanation. However, after the two chatted for a long time, he still didn't know who the other party was. He always felt that he looked familiar, but he had never seen the other party before. He thought that the other party was a furry bear. There are relatively famous figures in it, right?

"Let me introduce, this is Comrade Trotsky, the current member of the Bear Committee and military leader!"

Seemingly seeing Mainz's confusion, under Trotsky's instruction, the staff member responsible for translation immediately introduced him.

Is this guy actually Trotsky?

Now Mainz was surprised!

Trotsky's name was not particularly famous in later generations. Compared with Lenin, Stalin and even Khrushchev, he was much less famous.

However, when the Red Bear was first established, Trotsky was very famous. Tsky's status is very high, even higher than that of Lenin. It can be seen from his position as the head of the Central Military Commission that the person in charge of the entire Red Empire at this time is actually not Lenin, but Tolo Tsky.

The reason why this guy is not well-known in later generations is entirely because he lost the battle with Stalin's loving father, lost the opportunity to take charge of the huge Red Empire, and was expelled from Mao Xiong. Although he founded the Fourth International, no one recognized him anymore. In addition, he was later assassinated and died early, so not many people remember him in this history. The loser in the power struggle, Mainz looked at the opponent with interest.

To be honest, Mainz didn't think highly of Trotsky. This guy had a lot of good cards, but it turned out that he was the loser. He was beaten to a pulp due to his indecision. It was clear that Lielin wanted him to inherit his mantle and take over the rudder of the Red Empire's power, but this guy himself hesitated, and as soon as he hesitated, he immediately lost the chance to reach the top. Then it was completely defeated.

The political struggle between Trotsky and Stalin still had a great impact on Mao Xiong.

Even after Trotsky went into exile abroad, his foundation in the country was still not small, so in order to completely To eradicate this threat, Stalin launched the Great Purge.

Of course, the purpose of the Great Purge was not just to eliminate Trotsky's supporters.

Stalin used the Great Purge to eliminate dissidents and increase centralization and power.

The intention of his own power is obvious, and this terrorist campaign that spread over a wide range and lasted for a long time resulted in the killing of a large number of government officials and generals in Mao Xiong.

Mao Xiong's national power, especially its military strength, was greatly weakened, indirectly.

It led to the invasion of the Third Reich.

Thinking of this, Major Mainz had a sudden thought: If Stalin had given Trotsky some support when he expelled him, would the wooly bear have happened? What about the second civil war?

If the second civil war can really happen in Mao Xiong, it will be another disaster for Mao Xiong, and for the Third Reich, this will be an excellent opportunity, no matter in the end Who won the civil war? When the civil war left the bear full of holes, what else could they do to resist the million-strong army of the Third Reich?

Thinking of this, Mainz thought, try to fight Trotsky? It's not bad to have a good relationship. After all, it will give you one more opportunity to weaken the Mao Xiong.

Moreover, if this indecisive guy is really allowed to replace Stalin, this will be better news for the Third Reich!

"Your Excellency, I don't know how many weapons and equipment your army currently has. If possible, I hope you can give us a bottom line, so that we can formulate the next purchase plan!"

Trotsky didn't know that the German colonel opposite was making plans of his own. At this time, he was following his own plan and testing the colonel's tone bit by bit.

The German army left many weapons behind after the war. This matter Mao Xiong's intelligence personnel have already reported it, but due to the intervention of the Allied Powers, a large number of German weapons were dragged away by the Allies, which made it difficult for Mao Xiong to judge how much the German army was willing to give

Mao Xiong so far.

The only country that provides weapons is the Hans family.

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 will be of great help in solving the problem of insufficient equipment of the Soviet army on the front line, and The quality of the German army's weapons and equipment is obviously better than that left over from Tsarist Russia.

Who knows who uses things like the Maxim heavy machine gun? With this thing, it will be much easier for them to deal with the Cossack cavalry!

"According to the current procurement plan, I think it will last for three years without any problem. You just need to ensure the safety of the traffic lines along the way!"

One of the journeys I have personally experienced���, Mainz gave up hope for the safety of this transportation line.

It would be best if the German army sold weapons to the Soviet army not to be known to outsiders, but if outsiders knew about it, not only would the Soviet army be in trouble, but the German army would also be in trouble. After all, the Allies had already An Arms Control Commission for the German army was established to oversee the disarmament of the German army and the production activities of domestic armaments factories.

Once these people find out that Hans is selling weapons to bears, this matter will be in trouble!
