After listening to General Zhukov's words, Joseph did not speak for a long time, as if he was thinking about these words of General Zhukov,
I have to admit that these words of General Zhukov shocked him a lot. No one had dared to talk to him like that before. Everyone is following his will.
As the supreme leader of Russia, Zhukov's will represents the will of the entire country. He is always right, and no one dares to oppose him. Zhukov is also very satisfied with this status quo. He is now even more powerful than the Tsar forever. This also made him inevitably arrogant, thinking that it was best for Buer to develop according to his ideas.
However, what Zhukov said now made him sober, and he suddenly realized that if he followed his ideas, Buer might really be defeated this time.
"No matter what, next year's war is very important for Bu Russia. If you lose the war, Bu Russia will cease to exist. And I'm afraid I will also become a prisoner. At that time, let alone what I have now With these powers in hand, it may be very difficult to even save your life. Therefore, this war must not be lost!" Joseph said to himself secretly.
National leaders like him, while enjoying supreme power, have to pay a huge price. Once Bu Russia is defeated, he probably has no other choice but to commit suicide. So, if you don't want to die, you have to win the war.
Originally, Joseph believed that if he followed his own thinking, they would definitely be able to defeat Germany. However, now his confidence has been shaken, and he seems to have seen the possibility of failure. This made Joseph feel fear from the bottom of his heart. People who are more used to enjoying power are more afraid of death. They want to be able to live forever. In this way, they can enjoy power all the time.
"Comrade Voroshilov, Comrade Shaposhnikov, tell me honestly, are we not prepared for a counterattack at all this time?" Joseph asked.
Although the expression on Joseph's face could not tell his joy or anger, Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov knew that Joseph must be very angry. But at this time, they also knew that it was impossible to hide any more, otherwise, once Joseph got angry, no one would be able to save them.
"Comrade Joseph, we are indeed not ready yet. Many soldiers don't even have winter clothes. Although the Americans have provided us with a lot of supplies, it will take time for these supplies to reach the Western Front." Voroshilov insisted Said with a scalp.
"Then why didn't you tell me the truth before?" Joseph asked.
Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov stopped talking immediately.
Joseph guessed what they were thinking when he saw their appearance. They were simply afraid of disobeying Joseph's will and incurring Joseph's anger, so they dared not tell him the truth.
This made Joseph very angry, because these guys reported good news but not bad news, which made him make a lot of wrong decisions, which caused Bu Russia to suffer heavy losses on the battlefield. At the same time, Joseph felt a little happy because he knew that Voroshilov and Shaposhnikov were loyal to him. It is precisely because of the loyalty of the two that he was able to hold the army firmly and secure his current position.
"In next year's war, can we resist the German attack?" Joseph asked.
Shaposhnikov thought for a while, and then said: "Comrade Joseph, the current situation is very unfavorable to us. Although we are in a crazy armed army, by next spring, our army will exceed nine million. But There is a shortage of weapons and equipment, and the soldiers lack training. Even when facing the Germans and their servants, they have an advantage in strength. But it may be very difficult to defeat the Germans and their servants. Therefore, next year's In war, we will be primarily defensive."
Joseph's brows couldn't help but wrinkled tightly. He could sense from Shaposhnikov's answer that Shaposhnikov obviously didn't have much confidence in next year's war, which seemed to mean that the situation would be more unfavorable than he had imagined before.
"Comrades, I have decided to stop the winter offensive plan from now on. From now on, the troops will strengthen their training and war preparations to ensure that in next year's war, we must resist the Germans' attack! No matter how big the loss is , and smash the German plot to destroy us next year!" Joseph said solemnly. Now he has already felt the seriousness of the matter.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph." Voroshilov, Shaposhnikov and Zhukov couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Joseph being able to make concessions on this issue meant that they no longer had to worry that Joseph would deal with them because of this.
"In addition, our army needs further mobilization. Before the Germans launch an attack next spring, our troops must be mobilized to the limit. In this way, we will have enough troops to deal with the Germans!" Joseph then made a request.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph. Before the Germans attack next spring, the number of our troops will increase to nine million!" Shaposhnikov said. In the past few months, Bu Russia will further improve the efficiency of mobilization to ensure that it can have enough troops to resist the German attack.
"According to our agreement with the United States, in less than a month, the island country will declare war on Germany. The United States is also very likely to go to war with Germany within the next year. At that time, the Germans will face multi-front warfare .So, as long as we can survive next year, we have a chance of winning." Joseph continued. He also knows that Bu Russia's own strength cannot beat Germany, so he can only pin his hopes on other countries.
Marshal Voroshilov and others also nodded again and again. If it wasn't because the island country and the United States were about to join the war, they would have no confidence at all.
Subsequently, under Joseph's order, the Russian army's winter offensive stopped.
In addition, Zhukov was also transferred from the position of commander of the Western Front to serve as the commander of the newly formed Reserve Front. This group army has jurisdiction over the 24th, 34th, 60th, and 63rd Infantry, and the 2nd, 3rd, and 63rd Assaults. The 4th and 5th Army, the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Guards Army, the 1st Guards Tank Army, the 2nd Army, the 2nd Air Force Army, and the 3rd Army.
