Great time travel

Chapter 28. The noisy red camp
Late December [-], Soviet Union, Moscow, Kremlin
Moscow in December is already a world of ice and snow.But in every room in the Kremlin, it is still as warm as spring.

However, no matter how well the heater is turned on in the Kremlin, everyone who visits here often cannot help being silent and trembling.

After all, only a few years have passed since the so-called "great purge" of the Soviet miracle.And the brutal man who sent hundreds of thousands of people to the execution ground in one fell swoop, and millions of people to Siberia, is still watching every Soviet citizen in this palace!
At this moment, this Uncle Joseph, who is hated by millions of people and feared by even more people, is in his office, admiring the map of Europe on the wall with folded arms, looking at the thick red arrows on the map. Going on a rampage, gradually dyeing the vast land red...

——These are the great Red Army who adored him!Belonging to a red empire created by him!

This unprecedentedly huge empire is completely run through by his personal will, and the entire state machine is his armor and sword!

Now, this force with a sickle and a hammer and a red flag is sweeping across the world like a tide, preparing to create a revolution in human history!

28 years ago, on November 1917, 11 (October 7 in the Russian calendar), under the outstanding leadership of Comrade Lenin, the great Russian working class achieved a great victory in the October Revolution and established the world's first social The communist state regime, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, ended the strange situation in which the Provisional Government of Russia and the Soviet of Workers and Soldiers’ Representatives stood side by side, one country with two governments.However, what greeted the Soviet government next was not the joy of revolutionary success, but overwhelming rebellion, various foreign intervention forces, and civil wars throughout the country.Even if the Soviets won the battle of the founding of the country with difficulty, they must face the hostility and blockade of the entire capitalist world.

——The reactionaries all over the country and abroad have never stopped trying to overthrow the socialist regime, and this has been the case until now.Conversely, the Bolsheviks in the Soviet Union have never stopped exporting the idea of ​​revolution and liberating all mankind, and are steadily implementing it.

Now, the influence of the socialist camp in Europe has expanded to an unprecedented degree: from the fjords of Norway to the beaches of the Aegean Sea, from Paris, the capital of flowers, to Rome, the ancient capital, everywhere is covered by bright red flags.But the haze of crisis also emerged at the same time - all the military experts were constantly warning him that the great Red Army had far exceeded its attack limit, and would soon be worn down by accumulated exhaustion and long supply lines!
At the same time, the surviving capitalist camp in Europe continues to struggle and resist: Churchill, the belligerent fat man in Britain, stepped down briefly in October.However, because the peace talks between the newly elected Attlee Labor Party cabinet and the Soviet Union finally broke down-despite being hit by two nuclear bombs, the arrogant John Bull still refused to completely give up their sphere of influence on the European continent, which led to the British Labor Party cabinet downfall.Churchill's war-oriented cabinet made a comeback again this month, continuing its fierce game with the red camp and getting more assistance from its American cousin.

Therefore, the current French battlefield is still a stalemate and see-saw. Although the remnants of the British Expeditionary Force have completely withdrawn from the Atlantic coast of France, but on the Mediterranean coast of France, with more than 20 Spanish troops going north to join the war, the situation is changing. The reversal was repeated: these Spanish intervention forces, combined with the remnants of the Vichy French government, managed to hold off the exhausted Soviet Red Army in the northern foothills of the Pyrenees.

Then, relying on the fire cover of the British Mediterranean Fleet and the U.S. Air Force's strategic bombers, de Gaulle just this week led a French Foreign Legion unit dominated by blacks, successfully landed in Marseille from North Africa again, and carried out an attack on the French Workers' Red Guards in Marseille. massacre.Although this approach aroused great anger among French civilians, anyway, in today's France, class conflicts have erupted like fire and water, and this is not bad.

On the other side, within the range of thousands of kilometers behind this line of fire, all kinds of Communist rebellions are also endless and endless. Coupled with the countless disputes between the newly-established regimes of various socialist countries, it is simply It made the Kremlin unbearable and greatly slowed down the Red Army.

In particular, Stalin was stunned that there is still a fascist gang in western Ukraine, which is now the core hinterland of the Soviet Union, and has not been wiped out!And be able to break through the local county government!The cadres in that place really should go to the labor camp to learn!

Hey, there are troubles and loopholes everywhere, and the front line seems to be dragged too long!It made it impossible for the Red Army to concentrate its forces...

Stalin sighed like this, feeling very irritable and having a severe headache. Sometimes he really had the urge to "nuclearize the world" - there are more than 200 atomic bombs of various types ranging from [-] tons to megatons equivalent. Instead of letting those cowardly and stupid juniors guard the world's largest nuclear arsenal and be "peacefully evolved" by the enemy in a daze, it is better to throw all the atomic bombs in hand before they die of old age!
Of course, Stalin was also very clear that such things could only be random thoughts.As long as the Soviet Union has not been able to drop atomic bombs on New York and Washington, the so-called "nuclear flat world" can only be pure fantasy: even if London is successfully bombed, there is still the big tiger of the United States to fight.

So, after rubbing his forehead, he turned his attention to the map of East Asia on the other wall: If the current situation in the European battlefield is due to indigestion after the rapid expansion of the socialist camp, then the situation in the East Asian battlefield, It was a chaos caught off guard.

——Until the moment before the sudden collapse of the Japanese Empire, the attention of the Soviet Red Army was always on the Western Front.Regarding the war situation in East Asia, except for the large-scale trade with the Japanese Empire, only the minimum alert force was maintained.

As a result, after the entire war machine of the Japanese Empire disintegrated, Stalin discovered that the strength of the Soviet Red Army in the Far East was so weak that the total number of mobile troops that could be mobilized was less than 10.Even with the cooperation of the Japanese Communist Party and the Chinese Red Army, it is very difficult to compete with the Yankees for the inheritance of the Japanese Empire.Even Manchuria and North Korea, which were originally thought to be safe and secure, will experience twists and turns.

"... Landing in Incheon... The Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea... Halsey's brute really made a good move!"

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the blue arrow on the map that cut off the Korean Peninsula horizontally, and couldn't help but snorted depressingly.

——On Christmas Day, the main force of the U.S. Pacific Fleet led by Admiral Halsey suddenly appeared on the west coast of the Korean Peninsula, dispatched marines to land and control the port of Incheon, which had long been abandoned by the Japanese army, and gave the North Korean army entrenched in Seoul The * group transported a large amount of ordnance and supplies, and let the provisional government of the Republic of Korea, which had been in exile for many years, hang a sign in Seoul, the old capital of the Korean Kingdom with extraordinary political significance.

Obviously, this was a serious blow to the process of the socialist revolution in North Korea, and it was also a great encouragement to the backward feudal forces in North Korea.

But unfortunately, the Soviet Red Army in the Far East is really unable to prevent all this from happening.

The Soviet Red Army currently entering North Korea consists of only one brigade in Wonsan Port and one reinforced regiment in the Chongjin area.And under Comrade Kim Il Sung, the scheduled leader of the North Korean Soviet regime, there are actually only two divisions that are seriously short of staff.With the support of the Soviet Union and the cooperation of the Japanese troops stationed in North Korea, Comrade Kim was able to peacefully take over the northern city of Pyongyang, which was already very reluctant.As for further marching southward into Seoul and destroying the lair of the North Korean Communist forces, we can only wait until he has established a relatively stable ruling order in Pyongyang and recruited more troops.

In the same way, the Soviet Red Flag Pacific Fleet based in Vladivostok is currently unable to sail out of the Tsushima Strait and confront the US Pacific Fleet outside the big pond of the Sea of ​​Japan—due to long-term neglect, The size of the Soviet Pacific Fleet has always been pitiful, and the flagship with the largest tonnage is only a heavy cruiser. How dare it run around in front of Admiral Halsey's dozens of aircraft carriers and dozens of battleships?
In fact, today's Vladivostok has entered a frozen period. Except for a small number of destroyers, submarines, speedboats, and light cruisers that had previously left Wonsan Port, most of the ships of the Soviet Pacific Fleet are currently locked up. The ground was frozen in the harbor, and it was impossible to leave the harbor.

Even in the Manchuria area north of North Korea, the current situation is chaotic, and it may take a long time to stabilize.

——Although General Umezu Yoshijiro, the commander of the Japanese Kwantung Army, surrendered Puyi, the last emperor of China, to the Soviet Union as agreed before leading the Kwantung Army to retreat back to China to fight against the U.S. Army, and disarmed and dismissed most of the local troops in Manchukuo, there are still some Manchukuo The native army refused to disarm and became bandits or petty warlords.At the same time, the entire Manchukuo fell into anarchy in an instant, and then there was a complete collapse of social security.

The paratroopers who took over the regime in the past were parachuted by the Soviet Union in an emergency, and they only had time to control several major cities such as Harbin and Changchun, and then barely ensured the smooth flow of several major railway lines.As for the troops and political workers of the Chinese Red Army, just taking over Beiping in the south has been tossing enough, and the vanguard troops going north and leaving the pass have just arrived in Shenyang.The vast majority of remote counties in Manchuria are currently in a chaotic situation where thugs are rampant.

Of course, all these difficulties are temporary. Stalin never thought that those Chinese comrades who had been tried and tested could not even deal with some criminals who looted houses. Yankee across two oceans...

Just as Stalin was contemplating the map with a pipe in his mouth, a human figure suddenly gradually condensed in the void beside him.

——Brilliant long golden hair, a delicate boat-shaped hat full of decorations, a colorful plaid skirt, and slender jade legs wrapped in fluffy socks.

Although it looks like a high-quality hair girl with a high value, the way it appears is obviously not in the category of mortals.

However, Comrade Stalin turned a blind eye to this, as if he had long been used to it.

"...Comrade Sophie, do you have the latest information from the East?" He puffed out a smoke ring and asked casually without looking back, "...how is the specific situation in Japan? Comrades from the Japanese Communist Party have Is it capable of seizing national power in a short period of time?"

"...I'm afraid it's not optimistic, Comrade Stalin. Although a series of Soviet local regimes have been established in the Japanese archipelago, this has also stimulated the class enemies of the Japanese empire, such as chaebols, landlords, and nobles, and prompted them to defect to the United States more quickly. under the banner of imperialism."

Comrade Sophie Aurora replied, "...when the Japanese Soviet regime was established one after another, the power of the Japanese Provisional Government was also rapidly increasing. The plutocrats, capitalists and landlords of the old Japanese Empire tried to use The guns of the US military came to suppress the workers' and peasants' movement and restore the old order."

"...In other words, just like Russia after the October Revolution, Japan is rapidly splitting into two camps, red and white, right?"

Stalin muttered in a low voice, "...What about the Australian and Pacific battlefields in the south? Did the Japanese army there also have internal divisions?"

"...Yes, in the southern battlefield, only the Japanese navy is basically under our control, while a considerable part of the Imperial Japanese Army there, after passing the initial wait-and-see stage, has defected to the enemy. This has led to Confusion, collapse and disintegration of the entire front."

Sophie replied that at the same time, she stretched out her hand and unfolded a map of the Southeast Asia and Oceania theaters that marked the sphere of influence of the Japanese army. On the eve of the Tokyo nuclear explosion, the Japanese Empire’s wartime headquarters had just voluntarily abandoned Ceylon Island and revoked the establishment of the Indian Army. .Therefore, in the Japanese-occupied area south of China, it roughly extends to Myanmar in the west, Micronesia in the east, Fiji in the southeast, and Australia in the southwest... Deducting the control area of ​​​​the Japanese navy, the deployment in this area is not counted. The Japanese Army can be roughly divided into two systems: the Nanyang Army and the Australian Army.Today, as the Japanese Empire itself is split and disintegrated, this vast southern occupied area of ​​tens of millions of square kilometers has also been cut into fragments due to the divided positions of various Japanese troops.

"...First of all, more than a month after the Tokyo nuclear explosion, General Hisashi Terauchi, the commander-in-chief of the Nanyang Army who was born as a nobleman in Japan, finally issued a public telegram at the headquarters in Singapore, ordering the entire Nanyang Army to obey the Provisional Government of Japan, and to The allies of the United States and Britain surrendered. At the same time, the Thai government also announced its withdrawal from the war and negotiated peace with the United States. In New Guinea, Lieutenant General Anda 23, who also came from an aristocratic background, was neither willing to surrender to the United States nor to join the red camp, and finally chose seppuku Suicide, the three divisions under its jurisdiction were basically taken over by our side after the military movement.

On the other hand, General Yamashita, the commander of the Australian Army stationed in Sydney, and the entire [-] divisions of the Japanese Australian Army agreed to change flags to join the Soviet camp.In addition, part of the Nanyang Army stationed in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Indochina also strongly resisted Terauchi's surrender order and asked the combined fleet for help.The United Fleet Command has been busy sending ships to pick them up these days, and they are temporarily placed in New Guinea and other places..."

Pointing to the markings of different colors on the map, Sophie talked eloquently—in general, some of the Japanese troops in the Nanyang theater are waiting to surrender, while some troops that have not lost their fighting spirit are making great strides towards the east and south Shrinking, quickly abandoned the Philippines and Indonesia and other Southeast Asian regions with dense indigenous populations and fierce resistance movements, and moved to the Oceania region where troops and immigrants are more concentrated, and continued to fight against the U.S. military.

This approach is obviously more in line with the actual situation, and it is also in the long-term interests of the Soviet Union and the Communist International Movement.However, in view of the arrogance of the Americans in East Asia, Stalin hoped that the completely red United Fleet could go north as soon as possible to attack the arrogance of the Halsey Fleet.

To this, Comrade Sophie’s answer was: “...the new Commander of the Combined Fleet, Inoue Narumi, has led the fleet back to the mainland to preside over the overall situation. The main force of the Combined Fleet, including four Yamato-class battleships, is under the command of Chief of Staff Shen Shigetoku Next, deal with the withdrawal of troops from Hainan Island..."
