Chapter 937： Shame the Soviets (1/2)
Vyacheslav Mikhailovich Molotov, the People’s Commissar for Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union, was sitting in his place at this time, listening to the protests of German Ambassador Schulenburg.
”We and the Soviets have common interests. After the First World War, our fate was very similar, and we were closely pulled together. After that, we launched various cooperations in industry, agriculture, commerce, and military. He is the best friend, but today, something like this happened!”
Schulenburg was quite angry: ”Your side caused trouble in front of the Brest Fortress and caused serious conflicts with the defenders of our fortress. After that, you used built-in artillery to bombard us. This is to Do we Germany declare war?”
Facing the anger of the German ambassador, Molotov had been prepared for a long time. He said firmly: ”I'm sorry, I don't know about this. We will immediately urge the relevant parties to cease fire. There must be a misunderstanding. .”
This side is sloppy in diplomacy, and the other side rushes to control the fortress before the arrival of German reinforcements. This is the calculation of the Soviets.
Now, the anger of the Germans, in the eyes of Molotov, is very comfortable. Germans, let you do a ghost in Finland. Now, prepare to bear this evil result!
”We Germany cherish the friendship with the Soviet Union, but we will never be afraid of war. We have already conquered Europe. We still value the non-aggression agreement with the Soviets. Now, it is the Soviet Union that broke the agreement first. We will also move our troops over. Since the Soviet Union wants to fight, then we will accompany you to the end!”
Schulenburg has the confidence that since the 1930s, Germany has never lost every war. Although it used to be a small country, the Soviet Union is a vast country, and Germany has never been afraid.
In doing this, the Soviets were not afraid of launching a war?
”Ambassador Schulenburg, please rest assured. This is definitely a misunderstanding. We will investigate it immediately. We also attach great importance to the friendship with Germany. Please tell Führer Cyrek. This is just a small conflict on the border. , We will solve it as soon as possible.” Molotov said.
Now let's play sloppy first, wait until the Brest Fortress is handed, then don't expect the Soviet Union to vomit again.
”Please immediately order the frontline troops to stop the offensive. If we don't stop, our German counterattack must be quite fierce.” Schulenberg continued.
It seemed that he could see that the Soviets were deliberately procrastinating. Facing his attitude, Molotov also looked helpless: ”I'm sorry, Comrade Stalin went to Kiev for inspection today, not in the Kremlin. You know, Comrade Stalin. It is our great leader. Without him, we would not dare to give any orders.”
It is an established plan to shift the responsibility to Stalin and delay time by relying on Stalin's reputation. Molotov is very confident that he must behave fairly mildly and finally solve this matter satisfactorily.
”Please contact Comrade Stalin immediately and tell him that our head of state is already angry because of this.” Schulenburg said: ”I am here, waiting for your news.”
”Okay, then I will immediately contact the Kiev side and convey your opinion to Comrade Stalin, but I don't know if we can get in touch. After all, no one knows the specific whereabouts of Comrade Stalin.” Molotov said, standing. Get up and walk outside.
When he walked to the room on the side, he sat down leisurely, it was too early! Let's talk about it this afternoon.
At this moment, the phone on the desk rang, and when I picked up the phone, there was already a person's anger on the other end. Molotov was an agitated spirit instantly, and he ran out.
How is it possible, how is it possible!
