"This is a turning point." Stalin said: "the defense of Smolensk has broken the German siege myth. We can break out of the German siege in an organic way. In the future, we will not be afraid of the German siege tactics."

Stalin was very happy.

Up to now, the situation of the Soviet Union is still quite not optimistic. After the Germans beat Smolensk, they can continue to push eastward and threaten Moscow. The legions in the north are also moving towards Moscow. In the south, the Soviet Union also lost more than 100000 troops in the uman battle. In the Caucasus, Turkey has crossed the border and officially intervened in the war.

Although there were crises everywhere, Stalin was still optimistic. He even thought that now was a turning point, and the Patriotic War saw a glimmer of dawn!

"As the Germans continue to attack, the German logistics supply line will be longer and longer. The German tank forces rely entirely on fuel. Now we are not only fighting on the front line, but also behind the enemy." Stalin said, "let the Germans know that our Soviet is not so easy to be occupied as Britain and France. We want to set the German back on fire!"

The territory of the Soviet is vast. It is definitely not comparable to the small countries of France and Britain. The occupation of several allied republics by the Germans will not affect the overall situation of the Soviet at all. On the contrary, there are a large number of people loyal to the Soviet in the occupied areas, including some who have not had time to retreat, who will be organized together, Guerrilla warfare was launched behind the enemy, destroying German railways and roads, blocking their transportation of supplies to the front line, and supporting the battle on the front battlefield.

Stalin also valued it.

The history of Russian guerrilla warfare can be described as long ago. As early as the war in 1812, the Russian guerrillas made Napoleon's army tired of dealing with it. Although Napoleon fought in Moscow, he finally went back in frustration, and the guerrillas certainly contributed.

Unfortunately, in the 1930s, the Soviet Union had completely abandoned guerrilla warfare, and the commanders of various units had not learned the essentials of guerrilla warfare. Therefore, although Stalin shouted loudly, Stalin now did not know that their guerrilla warfare could not be brought into play at all.

Even in history, it will take about 43 years for the guerrillas to play their role.

On the contrary, Germany has already made preparations for the establishment of the Belarusian people's Liberation Army. After the occupation, Germany has made corresponding preparations for stabilizing order.

However, Stalin now felt a little relaxed. He seemed to have seen the gradual change of the war situation. At this time, a telegram from the front line made him feel bad again.

"Marshal bujoni called."

After receiving the telegram, Stalin immediately frowned and read it hastily. Stalin threw the telegram heavily on the table: "bujoni, timid as a mouse, regardless of the overall situation, actually had such an idea. He really failed to live up to the cultivation of the Soviet Union for many years!"

Comrade Stalin was angry.

The men on one side carefully took the telegram, and their faces changed.

Comrade Stalin, the battle of Smolensk has confirmed the strength of German armored forces. We are worried that the end of Smolensk will appear in Kiev. We request to abandon Kiev and retreat to avoid being surrounded by German forces again.

Bujoni didn't say much, but he deeply hurt Stalin.

The Smolensk campaign was a failure, but it was only after the bloody battle of the Soviet soldiers, which delayed the German process and dealt a heavy blow to the German arrogance that they had no choice but to retreat.

In this battle, talents such as Lukin and rokosovsky also emerged.

What about Kiev? Kiev is the capital of Ukraine. Now, bujoni wants to retreat without war! Coward, absolute coward, how could he put forward such a plan?

In fact, Stalin knew in his heart that Zhukov's proposal to give up Kiev was also an acceptance of bujoni's request. Although it is a time of war, Stalin's control over the army is also quite strong. Belia has long reported on the contact between bujoni and Zhukov.

Because Zhukov proposed that the Kiev garrison retreat, Stalin even removed Zhukov from his post and asked him to organize reserve forces. Stalin's attitude was already obvious. At this time, bujoni dared to put forward his opinions in person!

This is hitting Stalin in the face!

Stalin was quite satisfied with bujumbini, the old marshal. They had a deep personal relationship and had a deep friendship as early as the civil war. This is also the reason why bujumbini was not affected in the vigorous purge movement.

But now, bujoni dares to make this request, which is to touch Stalin's inverse scale. Stalin will never allow it!

"Pass on my order to remove the commander-in-chief in southwest bujoni." Stalin said that as soon as this sentence came out, the temperature of the whole conference room dropped several degrees.

Bujoni, one of Stalin's most trusted men and one of the few remaining marshals, was thus exempted by Stalin.

No one dares to object.

"Order timoshingo to go to Kiev immediately to take over from bujoni." Stalin continued.

Timoshingo was the commander-in-chief of the Western Front Army. After cleaning up Pavlov's mess, he retreated to Smolensk and organized defense in Smolensk. Although he failed in the end, at least he satisfied Stalin.

Now that Germany has occupied Smolensk, Timoshenko has moved behind, and Stalin simply threw Timoshenko directly to Kiev to bring back this enterprising bujoni!

Stalin was angry. He didn't know. He regretted it before long, because his decision completely cut off the retreat of 660000 defenders in Kiev. Germany learned the lesson from Smolensk. Kiev was surrounded, and no defenders could break out.

Zhukov, the only one who dared to give Stalin advice, has been kicked out. Now everyone is obedient to Stalin.

At this time, no one in the Kremlin knew that the whole armored group of the German Middle Road corps had quietly moved south after the Smolensk battle and was ready to make dumplings directly to the east of Kiev.

This time Germany is not using the tactics of two-sided attack. It is simply a strange soldier from heaven.
