Chapter 1212 (1/2)

Roosevelt knew more about politics.

When the Soviet Union and Germany had just entered a state of war, the United States had not taken action. After all, the Soviet Union was also bullied at that time. It believed that the Soviet Union's millions of troops were not like Britain and France.

Now, the Soviet Union is being beaten up by the Germans and is indeed aware of the huge gap between the Soviet Union and the Germans in the army.

The German army swept across Europe, relying not only on strategic wisdom, but also on the German's own advantages. Their army is the most powerful, well-equipped, experienced, brave and disciplined.

When the German war machine started, it was a sweeping situation.

Now, the Soviet Union has been beaten, and the Soviet Union is very injured. At this time, the Soviet Union can recover only through blood transfusion from the United States.

Of course, the United States will not support and strengthen the Soviet Union at once. The best outcome is, of course, that the Soviet Union contains Germany and both sides lose.

The Soviet Union warmly welcomed the arrival of the Americans. In fact, Hopkins informed the Soviet Union before his arrival, but they focused all their attention on Petersburg and forgot about it long ago. Now, the arrival of the Americans is just sending charcoal in the snow.

In a secluded room in the Kremlin, Stalin cordially met the Hopkins party. Not only the Americans came, he also saw other old faces.

For example, Stan fallipps, a former British ambassador to Moscow, left Moscow as a diplomat appointed by George VI after Edward VIII came to power. Now he has come here secretly again.

Hopkins's appearance is not good. He is quite thin. He can almost see the bulging cheekbones on his face.

He was born in a humble family and lived a difficult life from childhood. As a child suffering from typhoid, frail and sick, it has the nickname of ”thin skinned monkey”.

However, one cannot judge by appearance. Such a skinny monkey has become the most important aide around Roosevelt. Now, he has a great responsibility to visit the Soviet Union.

”We are very supportive of the Great Patriotic War of the Soviet Union. Now, the whole world is shrouded in the shadow of the axis powers. We must unite to defeat these damn lunatics.” Hopkins said, ”just after I got off the plane, I got the news from Petersburg. Please allow me to express condolences to the dead there on behalf of Roosevelt and the United States. This is another war crime committed by the Germans.”

Hundreds of thousands of people died in Petersburg at once, which was the heaviest blow to the Soviet Union. Stalin also looked serious: ”the German massacre will not scare us, but will only arouse our patriotic enthusiasm. Our 200 million people in the Soviet Union will continue to fight with the belief of victory.”

In fact, the Soviet Union had just 180 million people before the outbreak of the war. Stalin was right to round it.

”Yes, we firmly believe that justice will prevail.” Hopkins said: ”at the same time, we will also extend our hand, although we are also very difficult, and will support the just cause of the Soviet Union.”

Before the war broke out, the military strength of the Soviet Union was not weak, and a large number of troops, aircraft and tanks were deployed on the border. However, now, the Soviet army has disappeared one by one, and the equipment has been greatly reduced.

Now that the Americans are here to support, Stalin will never be polite.
