Hitler's unexpected appearance once again made the Turkey issue more complicated. Previously, the Soviet Union used force against Turkey, and there were more people who shouted and scolded. The emergence of Hitler directly reversed this phenomenon. Now, people who applauded or believed that it was reasonable for the Soviet Union to send troops had the upper hand, which directly led to the public opinion that opposed the government's continued assistance to Turkey in the US polls.

Of course, public opinion is a slap for the US military interest groups. Congress, controlled by the interest groups, cannot withdraw its aid to Turkey. In the words of later generations, it is to commit crimes against the wind. Just a month after Hitler was arrested in Turkey, the United States still delivered hundreds of early M4 medium-sized tanks and hundreds of 1O5mm artillery to Turkey.

As for the Turkish government, it was naturally "resisting" to the end, firmly denied any connection between Hitler and the Nazis, and accused the Soviet Union of deliberately framed the situation.

After December, the armed conflict between the two sides became more intense, and the Turks who received sufficient US aid were ready to fight back. After Huasilevsky received reinforcements, he was also preparing to fight a large-scale annihilation battle and bleed Turkey again. Anyway, a big war is imminent.

Looking at Yugoslavia again, Tito is still insisting. In addition to continuously using guerrilla tactics to harass the CIS peacekeeping forces, he also strengthened control over Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, cracked down on local racial separatists, and ensured that his remaining basic structure would no longer have any problems.

As for the CIS, on the one hand, it severely swept the Tito guerrillas in Kosovo, and on the other hand, it also attacked Macedonia. As mentioned earlier, this Macedonia is not the same as that of Macedonia in history, and this Macedonia has many things, and it is not very harmonious with the Albanians (more people who believe in Orthodox Church in Macedonia), and Tito has also instructed Macedonia to pull Kosovo's back from behind.

But what Tito did not expect was that Sverdlov was so annoyed by him that he was determined to dismember Yugoslavia. It would be fine if Macedonia did not cause trouble, but now it was sent to the door to cause trouble, so the CIS would naturally not be polite to it. After another local armed forces in Macedonia attacked the CIS peacekeeping forces, with the political bureau, the CIS authorized that a new peacekeeping force entered Macedonia. Anyway, it was slashed and killed as soon as it came up, cleaned up Tito's local forces and supported a Macedonian National Liberation Committee to temporarily take over the local regime in Macedonia.

In this way, Tito naturally exploded. He attacked the Soviet Union in anger, which was an attempt to dismember Yugoslavia, which was a wolf's ambition. Naturally, Britain and the United States also kept up with it, making a big move in the Security Council, and it was impossible for the Security Council to form any resolution. This institution has no authority to refer to the gangster.

Moreover, Macedonia is surrounded by Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, and Kosovo. Not to mention that Britain and the United States are far from reaching even Tito, they can only watch Macedonia change the world.

After December, not only Macedonia changed, but also China also had many more. The newly established East China Field Army (the commander and political commissar was Chen Shuai, and the acting commander General Su) continued to fight and won the battle. The Central China Field Army (Liu Deng’s troops) also rushed to the outside line and turned Henan and Hubei into a huge uproar. As for the battlefield in North China, the North China Field Army (Shi Shuai, Nie Shuai) disrupted Hebei and Shanxi, blocked Yan Laoxi in the city and railway lines and could not move. As for General Peng and He Shuai’s northwest field army, although there were few people, walking Hu Zongnan was like walking a dog, annihilated tens of thousands of Hu Zongnan by knocking on candy.

At this time, Lin Shuai's Northeast Field Army in the Northeast was basically completed. His headquarters had thirteen columns, a special forces column and a heavy artillery column, with a total of more than 500,000 starting a continuous entry into the pass. I'm afraid 1946 would be very difficult for the Democratic Party.

Looking back at the situation in the Soviet Union, by the end of 1945, the Soviet Red Army had laid off a total of two million troops, reducing the total amount of the Red Army from its peak of 120,000 to less than 10 million. Of course, this scale is still too large. According to the requirements of the Military Commission, 40,000 people will continue to be cut in 1946, and strive to reduce the troops to 50,000 in 1947 and to 50,000 in 1948. According to Li Xiaofeng's estimate, the scale of the Red Army is relatively healthy. Among them, 20,000 in 6 troops, and the Air Force and Navy are around 10,000.

According to the long-term plan of the Political Bureau and the Military Commission, the Red Army will fully implement mechanization and modernization, especially to purchase more helicopters to make the Red Army faster and stronger assault capabilities. The Air Force has begun to reduce propeller aircraft on a large scale, and the focus will gradually turn to jet aircraft. The Red Navy has eliminated all battleships, battle cruisers, and old artillery cruisers are not newly built and have begun the process of gradually retirement. In addition, the Navy will fully display aircraft carriers and nuclear-powered submarines, and the new generation of jet carrier-based fighters will also be put on the agenda.

Of course, for the Political Bureau and the Military Commission, the top priority in the military is nuclear weapons. According to the long-term plan of the Military Commission, intercontinental missiles and hydrogen bombs will be the focus of the next stage, and the ability to strike the United States as soon as possible. Of course, in this long-term plan, Li Xiaofeng specially listed a requirement that the number of nuclear warheads is not required for the time being. Judging from the current nuclear weapons development status, the degree of updates will be very fast. The atomic bombs produced will be completely outdated in just one or two years. In order to save funds, the total number of atomic bombs should not exceed 50 in the next three years. As for the power of atomic bombs and hydrogen bombs, the stronger the better. We must pay attention to economics and technology, and do not be greedy.

In short, a certain immortal added a lock to the exhibition of nuclear weapons. If the relevant parts were allowed to be opened, the current economic strength of the Soviet Union would really not be able to hold on. Of course, this is a pure deception to the outside world. The intelligence about nuclear weapons that was deliberately leaked is almost fake. For example, in the five-year plan for the Soviet nuclear weapons obtained by the Americans, it showed that the Soviet Union would produce at least O nuclear bombs and 5O medium-range ballistic missiles in the next five years. Anyway, from the data, it would be scary.

Of course, relying solely on data will not last long, so the Soviet Union's nuclear tests will be very frequent in the next few years. A bomb will explode in a few months and the Americans will hear it. I believe they will feel urgency.

It has to be said that the tricks formulated by a certain immortal were very successful and immediately brought the Americans into the ditch. In order to deal with the Soviet Union's "amazing" nuclear plan, the Americans also fought to catch up with them. The Senate generously approved the plan to produce at least 60 atomic bombs in five years, and also required relevant parties to strengthen the development of ballistic missiles. This required huge expenses. Of course, the Americans were rich and could afford to play. But it was not very meaningful to play like this.

While the Americans were spending money in nuclear programs, the Soviet Union was calculating and saving money, and more funds were spent on restoring production and developing the economy. He began to catch up with the United States in terms of soft power. However, the burden on the Soviet Union was also quite heavy, and the main source of these burdens was Central and Eastern European countries. Since 1945, the economic situation of these countries was very unoptimistic. Even with the assistance of the United States, the problem was quite serious. In order to restore the normal state of Central and Eastern Europe as soon as possible, the Soviet Union had to tighten its belts to support them. It was not until 1947 that they gradually got out of the trough and returned to normal.

Of course, compared with history, Central and Eastern European countries in this time and space are much happier. In history, due to the obstruction of the Soviet Union, they failed to receive US aid, and the economic situation was even worse, and even caused famine at one point. Now, famine has basically been eliminated. Except for some people who are a little malnourished, the problem is not big.

However, Central and Eastern Europe has indeed caused some problems because it received the aid from the United States. A large number of pro-British and American leaders are operating in secret. They are highly dissatisfied with the "rule" of the Soviet Union. It can be said to be a time bomb.

"The main problem we encountered in 1947 was still economic problems," Sverdlov made a summary report for the previous year at the annual Plenary Session of the Political Bureau. "The economic situation in Central and Eastern Europe is still not optimistic, and the temporary difficulties in climate have led to the continued reduction of grain production last year. Initially, Central and Eastern European countries still needed a large amount of food imports to overcome the difficulties, but the bad thing is that their foreign exchange and credit limits have been completely consumed, and it is difficult to say whether the United States can continue to assist Central and Eastern European countries this year as before. From now on, what we have received

According to information, if the Central and Eastern European countries do not open their markets to the United States, the United States is preparing to interrupt economic aid to Central and Eastern European countries. That is to say, the next year will be a serious test for Central and Eastern European countries... my country's economic situation has risen steadily and has basically achieved self-sufficiency in food, but the situation of light industry is not ideal, the daily necessities gap reaches %, and the export of heavy industrial products is not optimistic. Central and Eastern Europe lacks purchasing power due to limited economic capabilities, the French market is limited to open to us due to trade protection reasons, and faces competition from similar products from the United States and the United Kingdom..."

Sverdlov's summary report made the political and political situation unfavorable. Soviet industrial products, especially heavy industrial products, have sales channels except oil and steel. Other automobiles, construction machinery, machine tools, etc. are difficult to open up the Western European market. This situation is nothing for countries that do not pursue much. For example, Arab oil princes live like this. However, the Soviet Union is not Arab and cannot live by selling resources. This is really too low-level. In the end, we have to find ways to open up the market for industrial products, otherwise our lives will probably not be easy in the future.

The economy is not ideal, and there are many political challenges. Sverdlov continued to say: "Yuberty-Slavia has officially announced the severance of diplomatic relations with our country and the expulsion of our ambassador. This means that the Kosovo conflict may explode in full. To deal with this challenge, I believe that the CIS peacekeeping force should extend the period and withdraw from Kosovo as early as 1948, otherwise our previous efforts will be wasted."

Yes, Tito has not stopped at all in the past two years, and has stopped fighting with the CIS, which has dragged down, forcing a Soviet army to station in Kosovo and Albania for a long time. This has involved considerable attention from the Soviet Union. This has made Sverdlov a little difficult to retreat. Let's retreat. Tito is eyeing there. As long as the Soviet Red Army leaves, he will definitely launch a large-scale counterattack on Kosovo and Macedonia. Staying in Kosovo and Macedonia means a lot of expenses, and it cannot be consumed like this, right? Who knows when it will be.

In fact, Sverdlov already regretted the good idea that he had come up with on his head back then. There was no benefit in Yugoslavia at all. He was simply exhausted and he was flirting with energy and strength. Now that he could not repair Tito in a comprehensive manner, he could not withdraw his troops. It was a dilemma.

Li Xiaofeng spoke: "The Yugoslavia issue cannot be delayed like this. We must quickly solve the problem, either withdraw troops from Kosovo and Macedonia. Or recognize Kosovo and Macedonia's independence. There is no third option!"

To put it bluntly, either you should quickly withdraw from the quagmire of Kosovo, or you should simply not have any fantasies about Tito, get rid of the passive situation in front of you that you cannot fight hard or do not fight, and you should just do it in a straightforward way.

Sverdlov emphasized: "This means a full-scale war!"

Li Xiaofeng replied: "That's better than dragging on forever!"

The Political Bureau fell into silence. After a long time, Li Xiaofeng broke the silence again and said simply: "I suggest admitting the independence of Kosovo and Macedonia. The situation in the previous two years has proved that Tito will not surrender, so it is extremely stupid to continue to have hope for it. We must solve the problem as soon as possible!"

Sverdlov asked hesitantly: "Will the invasion of Yugoslavia fall into a bigger quagmire?"

Li Xiaofeng corrected: "We are not going to invade Yugoslavia, but to force Yugoslavia to recognize the independence of Kosovo, Macedonia and Snownia. We do not intend to enter Yugoslavia's territory, but to make full use of air superiority, weaken Yugoslavia's military and economic strength, and torture Tito and force him to let go!"

Yes, in the past two years, the Red Army's military operations were strictly limited to Kosovo and Macedonia, and they could not enter Yugoslavia to fight. This led to Tito gaining an asymmetric advantage. He deliberately and unscrupulously sent guerrillas to Kosovo for trouble, but his own territory would not suffer any losses. In this way, how could Tito let go?

Sverdlov was still a little hesitant because he was exhausted in the past two years. One Yugoslavia and the other Turkey were as hard as two porcupines. If Li Xiaofeng had not received a large amount of funds from the Nazis, the economic development of the Soviet Union would have been affected. Finally, Huasilevsky fought two large-scale annihilation wars last year and wiped out nearly 500,000 Turkey's army in one fell swoop. This made the Turks realize that they were powerful and beat them to the negotiating table, and then they were breathing. If they had to take into account the three directions of Turkey, Yugoslavia and China at the same time, they would be exhausted.

If Yugoslavia wants to start a full battle now, will it fall into a more troublesome quagmire than Türkiye before? So Sverdlov has to be cautious.

"This issue is discussed for a while, comrades will consider it more and wait for the next plenary meeting of the Political Bureau to make a decision!"

It has to be said that Sverdlov's decision made most political bureau members dissatisfied, because the destruction of Yugoslavia could not be delayed anymore. Why? The war on the Indochina Peninsula had already ignited, and the little brother of the revolutionary Viet Cong made the French embarrassed. Seeing that the French were about to run away, the Americans were preparing to take over. Once the Americans intervened in the affairs of the Indochina Peninsula, it would cause a series of chain reactions. It cannot be ruled out that the Americans were using the springboard of the Indochina Peninsula to prepare to interfere in China.

You should know that at this time, the overall situation of China was basically determined. In a total of one and a half years, the 1.50,000 DPP troops were wiped out, and the elite troops of the slaughter army, including the five main forces, had already been wiped out. At this time, the slaughter army could only rely on the so-called Yangtze River natural barrier to resist stubbornly. Of course, everyone now saw that the slaughter Yangtze River natural barrier was just a joke. The one- or two-kilometer-long defense line could not be defended by the semi-disabled DPP troops. It can be said that as long as the slaughter army is willing to cross the river to fight at any time. Now the slaughter party can only get time through Jiang and shouting for peace negotiations.

At this time, the US military intervened in the affairs of the Indochina Peninsula. Who dares to say that there is no intention to use the springboard to go to China? Even if there is no, if the Indochina Peninsula is in the hands of the United States, it would be like a cannon on the head of the Communist Party. This threat is too close.

If the Soviet Union could resolve the destruction of Yugoslavia as soon as possible, it would take out the strength to create pressure on the Americans in other directions, forcing them to not deal with the Vietnamese Communist Party and the Communist Party wholeheartedly.

And now, Sverdlov is going to drag it out. Why can't it be disappointing?

In fact, in the past two years, not only Sverdlov has disappointed the political bureau on some external issues, but also lost points in some internal issues, such as anti-corruption and anti-bureaucracy. Xiao Si was also hesitant to delay and delay, only willing to treat symptoms but not the root cause. He was indifferent to some unreasonable and unscientific parts of the existing system, and sometimes he tried his best to maintain the so-called "old revolutions". Anyway, Derzhinsky was quite annoyed and was on the verge of being on the verge of storm.

Not only this problem, but also the Soviet Union has no vitality in the first few five-year plans in the 1930s. The growth rate of GDP has dropped rapidly from more than 10% to less than 5%. Although it is still growing, it is weak no matter how hard it looks. As for economic reforms, Xiao Si's advantages are ashamed of Mo Shen, and he does not let go at all, which makes real economic experts such as Bukharin also feel dissatisfied with him...
