Chapter 938： Old tears

Khrushchev came back eight hours later. After he finished his telegram, he took a car and went to a nearby air force base. He found a plane and sent him back to Moscow. It's a pity that this plane It was slower, and oil was added once in the middle.

When he returned to Moscow, Khrushchev jumped out of the car and ran inside. He was so tired that he was out of breath. He almost ran to Stalin in one breath, and then he knelt down involuntarily.

"Comrade Stalin, I am guilty. I blamed me for not discovering the German conspiracy in advance to let our troops jump into the fire pit!" Khrushchev beat his chest with both hands and cried with old tears.

"Hurry up and put your tears away for me, tell me what's going on, if you don't know, hum!" Stalin saw Khrushchev's tricks and said to Khrushchev.

Khrushchev wiped away his tears and said: "We were in the game. We thought that the Germans were unprepared. Who knows, the Germans were already ready. They deployed terrible cannons inside and behind the fortress. They can destroy one of our artillery positions with one shot!"

"Comrade Khrushchev, please pay attention to your words, do not deliberately exaggerate!" Voroshinov said: "One shot destroys an artillery position. Do you think we are all children?"

This battle was proposed by Khrushchev in order to save face for the Soviets and at the same time to deter the Germans from interfering in Finnish matters. However, the result now is the opposite. Someone must come to the back. of.

Khrushchev left the army and ran back alone. He might not be able to survive. Everything depends on the judgment of Comrade Stalin. In order to survive, Khrushchev deliberately fabricated facts and exaggerated the strength of the Germans.

Destroying an artillery position with one shot, who would you lie to?

"No, I didn't lie!" Khrushchev said: "The gun, which can hit dozens of kilometers away, lies in ambush more than ten kilometers behind the Brest Fortress. Our air force found the cannon. It’s a pity that I couldn’t destroy it.”

"Is that gun bigger than the naval gun?" Voroshinov asked.

"Yes, we infer that its caliber is about 800 mm." Khrushchev said.

"Khrushchev, don't quibble!" Stalin's expression was ugly, and he finally couldn't help speaking, and stopped Khrushchev from talking.

Naval guns, at best, can be used as fixed fortresses on land. They are usually located on the coast. Who has heard of large-caliber guns in the interior?

Moreover, it is actually 800 mm! What a joke! The largest of the battleship’s naval guns was only more than 400 millimeters, and Stalin could no longer bear it.

"Comrade Stalin, I didn't lie!" Khrushchev felt his liver trembling: "Their first wave suppressed our rear artillery positions. After that, our ground troops attacked. , In their fortress, there were also terrible cannons. One shot could kill hundreds of us. We really suffered heavy casualties. Just when the infantry was about to give up the offensive, a German armored force bypassed the woods. , Surrounded us..."

"Enough, come, take Khrushchev down!" Stalin roared.

Khrushchev felt that his legs immediately weakened. Stalin was already angry with him. His political career might be ruined!

Outside, two guards came in and dragged Khrushchev out like a dead dog. There was no way. Khrushchev, with his weak legs, couldn't stand up anymore. He wanted to say: " Comrade Stalin, what I said is true..."

It was easy to wait until Khrushchev came back, but what he said was simply appalling!

When Khrushchev's voice disappeared, Stalin looked at his men and said, "Do you believe what Khrushchev just said?"

Voroshinov and Budionni shook their heads, only the young Zhukov did not speak.

"Zhukov, what do you think?" Stalin asked.

"Comrade Stalin, I think Khrushchev's words may be correct." Zhukov said with a serious face.

Just now, Stalin was very angry with Khrushchev's words, only for the matter itself, and Stalin knew that Khrushchev, he would not lie on this kind of issue.

If Khrushchev's words are correct, then the problem is serious!

The Germans are fully prepared, that is to say, their plans for this period of time have been leaked. Who did it?

Stalin's eyes looked at everyone present. Only a few of them knew this secret. Although the frontline troops were frequently mobilized, no one knew that they were going to fight the Brest Fortress.

Everyone who was seen seemed to know what Stalin was thinking, and quickly shook his head, what a joke! Tukhachevsky and his group have long since disappeared, and everyone present has not fornicated Germany!

"There are many possibilities for the leakage of intelligence. For example, the Germans may have deciphered our telegram code. I suggest that we immediately change the codebook and encryption method." Beria, who has not spoken out, said.

In the last major purge, enough people died, and the quality of the army has deteriorated drastically. This can be seen through the battle between the Finnish War and the current Brest Fortress.

The suspicion of the great leader represented a **** storm. Now, Beria took the initiative to stand up and mentioned this possibility.

Stalin nodded. It is true. Everyone present is credible. It seems that it is indeed a problem with the telegram password. It is really speechless.

"What we need to solve most now is how to deal with this situation." Zhukov continued to speak: "Our army is captured by the Germans, what should we do next?"

The scene was calm, everyone knew what Zhukov meant.

At first, under Khrushchev's instigation, everyone was thinking about how to shame the Germans after taking back the Brest Fortress! How to warn the Germans not to continue to mix things with Finland.

As a result, the Soviets have failed, and the defeat is so miserable that even the coach is captured!

Soviet, what shall we do?

If you continue to be tough, you must increase troops and continue to fight in Brest. Then, a border conflict is likely to evolve into a war of annihilation!

The Soviets are not yet ready to fight a war, and even Finland has not conquered, let alone a war with Germany?

But if you don’t continue to be tough, should you just give in? How could the Soviets swallow this breath! Played by the Germans again!
