Chapter 8 Tehran Spring

Biyatrisa looked at the basic contents of the meeting proposal, and there were not many things on it. If divided, there were three major themes and seven parts.

The first theme is the issue of the US-British Allied forces opening up a second battlefield in western Europe. Biatrisa knew that just last night, the US-British Allied forces had successfully landed in Sicily, Italy. The troops participating in this battle had a total of thirteen divisions and three independent brigades, with a total force of 480,000. Among the troops participating in the battle were the Seventh Army led by his father Patton and the Eighth Army led by General Montgomery.

As a journalist with a keen sense of smell, Biatrisa certainly knew that the Allies chose to land in Italy not just to defeat the German and Italian fascists faster. They obviously had a deeper plan, that is, to liberate the entire Italian Peninsula and even the entire Balkan Peninsula before the Soviets, so as to organize the Soviet Union to spread their influence to Eastern Europe after the war.

There is no doubt that the Soviets would not be able to notice the small abacus in the minds of the United States and Britain. The most important thing is that at this time, the United States and Britain needed the Soviets to further restrain the German troops on the Eastern Front, so that they could not divide their troops south to advance into Italy. Therefore, the issue of opening up the second battlefield on the Western Front must be raised again to obtain the Soviets.

However, perhaps what the Americans and British people could not have imagined was that Chu Sinan had actually expected this. In the telegram sent to the Zhukov Corps on the Eastern Front, he talked about the issue that the US and British Allied Forces were most likely to land on Italy in the short term, and judged it. The Germans invested ground forces in the Battle of Kursk, which would be greatly reduced with the actions of the United States and Britain. It was with Chu Sinan's encouragement that Zhukov dispelled his doubts and gave up his plan to put the grassland front into the Battle of Kursk in advance, thus laying a solid foundation for the glorious results of the entire battle.

Therefore, fundamentally speaking, Chu Sinan or the Soviet Union did not oppose the landing of the US and British forces in Sicily, because the German forces are still not weak enough to be vulnerable. What is particularly important is that the US and Britain chose to land in Italy and attempt to advance northward. It would be necessary to break through the German defense front in the Alps, and as far as Chu Sinan knew, it would be a bad battle, and the US and Britain could not gain any advantage there in the end. Therefore, from the purpose of making local combat, the US and Britain landing on the Italian Peninsula was a complete wrong choice. They had nothing there except to eliminate Mussolini's fascist regime.

The second theme of this meeting is the problem of dealing with Germany after the war. Obviously, although the war is far from over, the United States and Britain are already eager to put the dealing with the German issue on the agenda. Don’t think that the purpose of this topic is just to deal with Germany, the reason why the United States and Britain advocated the finalization of this issue at this time was to solve all the problems on the European battlefield in a package. Germany and all its servants are the objects to be dealt with. If we consider it from this perspective, then their real purpose is very clear. They hope that through this meeting, on the condition of opening up a second battlefield in Europe, they will force the Soviet Union to sign a written agreement to divide the respective spheres of influence of the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union in the entire Europe after the war.

The draft that Biatrisa saw was still not all. A large part of the content on the second issue was deleted by Chu Sinan. In the part he deleted, there was the initial suggestions from the United States and Britain for the division of European forces.

According to the suggestions of the United States and Britain, after the war, Poland's territory will extend westward and occupy a large tract of territory east of Germany's former Danze. At the same time, the Soviet territory will also expand westward. As for the maximum extent of expansion, it will be finalized in subsequent meetings; Romania will be divided after the war, and the Principality of Romania and the Principal of Moldova will be included in the Soviet area controlled by the Soviet Union, while Transylvania, Maramuresh and Krishana will be under the jurisdiction of the United States and Britain; after the war

Hungary, Austria, Montenegro, Bulgaria, Serbia, and Poland can be included in the actual control areas of the Soviet Union, and in exchange, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Finland, and Norway will be actually controlled by the United States and Britain. After the war, Germany will be subject to the most severe punishment, and whoever can finally include it in its sphere of influence depends on the future war situation. Simply put, whoever enters Berlin first will enjoy more control in Germany.

When Chu Sinan first received this draft, he suddenly realized a suspense that he had not been able to understand for a long time, that is, why countries such as Yugoslavia, Romania, Poland, etc. were able to establish a country in power in the left, while Greece on the Balkans and Turkey on Central Asia failed to succeed. For nothing else, it was because of their revolutionary prospects that had already been encircled by an international agreement.

Now, history is about to repeat itself, and at this juncture, Chu Sinan himself has become a person who can determine the fate of these countries to a certain extent. What should he do? What can he do? There is no doubt that this is a very difficult choice.

As for the third issue, it is the problem that Chu Sinan expected. The United States and Britain proposed that in order to prevent the outbreak of a new large-scale war, after the end of World War II, an international organization similar to the League of Nations but larger and more binding than the League of Nations should be established. The organization is mainly responsible for coordinating international disputes, discussing global issues, and maintaining world peace and security. Of course, in order to achieve this goal, the reorganization should have a certain amount of armed forces, and the size of this armed force will be borne by the member states as needed.

This is the initial structure of the so-called United Nations. Chu Sinan naturally would not have any opinions on the establishment of the United Nations. After all, from some aspects, this international organization played a certain role in maintaining world peace for a long time after the war.

After reading the content of the topic quickly, Biyatrisa turned her attention to Chu Sinan again. After thinking about it, she asked, "I wonder what issues the general is dissatisfied with? What problems do you think should be added to these issues? I think this issue should be something that many people will pay attention to, of course, including me."

Chu Sinan still walked to his seat with a faint smile, stretched out his hand and gently tapped on the arched back of the chair, and said, "There is only one thing I am not satisfied with, that is, what we need to consider now should not be just a European issue. In Asia, the war crimes committed by Japanese imperialism are not much inferior to the Germans. And what about now. With the allied counterattack on the Pacific battlefield and our Soviet Red Army winning streaks in Manchuria, China. The demise of Japanese imperialism is also near. Therefore, we have reason to think that at this time, if we want to discuss the post-war handling of fascist countries, Japan should also be among them, otherwise, this local meeting cannot be considered complete."

Chu Sinan's words made Biatrisa understand him in an instant, to be precise, it was the attitude of the Soviet Union. It was obvious that the Soviets were not satisfied with the division of power in Europe. Their eyes were also staring at Asia. As for the punishment of Japan, it was just a springboard. Since the Soviets were staring at Asia, what were their targets? China? Korean Peninsula? Or Japanese mainland? Biatrisa was not sure, but she felt that the most likely was Manchuria, because at least it was still under the actual control of the Soviets.

However, perhaps Biatrisa would never have thought that Chu Sinan, who was about to take over as the first secretary of the CPC Central Committee, not only had no ambitions for Manchuria, but on the contrary, he was also very reluctant to talk about this issue. You should know that with the Japanese Kwantung Army's defeat in Manchuria, a kind of argument began to appear in the Soviet Union, that is, to require the Soviet government to take the opportunity to regain all the rights and interests that the former imperial and Russian government had lost in Manchuria since the Russo-Japanese War. There is no doubt that this argument was unwilling to hear from Chu Sinan. He could even see through various signs, who were spreading this argument behind the scenes, and these people undoubtedly wanted to use this question to the greatest extent to attack his reputation in the Soviet Union.

Faced with this situation, the only safest way Chu Sinan could take was to divert the public's attention through further sanctions on Japan. Similarly, this is also the most fundamental reason why he insisted on putting the issue of punishment on Japan on the agenda at this meeting.

"What kind of punishment measures should the general think against the major imperialist countries in Asia... Japan?" Biatrisa asked carefully, as she was testing Chu Sinan's tone.

"My opinion is very clear, that is, to impose the most severe punishment!" Chu Sinan said casually. Of course, he would not tell the reporter his most direct view that all he needed was to disclose information to the United States and Britain through this reporter, that is, the Soviet Union had "political intentions" against Japan. As for other details, it would have to be held at a formal meeting for negotiation.

"Can the general say more in detail?" Biatrisa asked.

"I am a soldier, so from the perspective of the problem, I also look at the identity of a soldier," Chu Sinan began to change his concept. He said with a serious face, "In my opinion, after experiencing the heavy blow of World War I, another world war with a larger scale and wider scope broke out in just over a decade. It is not simply because of the emergence of Hitler, nor because of the rising Japanese militarism sentiment. Its most fundamental principle

Because after the catastrophe of World War I, those countries that really caused the war did not receive enough severe punishment. Just like Germany, whether it is you Americans, British or French, it is obvious that when dealing with it, the idea of ​​"being slutty dogs and not chasing them" is blinded by everyone's eyes, so that they can raise their heads again after just over a decade to prepare for another larger war."

"Now, this war that has lasted for several years is about to pass, and we are about to face the problem of sanctions on the culprits who provoke the war. At this time, I stand in the perspective of a soldier and also express my opinion on behalf of the entire people of the Soviet Republic. This time, for the sake of stability and peace for at least a century in the future, we must not only knock the head down, but also kill it directly. We must not only chase the enemy, but also chase it to his lair.

To completely destroy the bandit's nest, turn his two acres of paddy fields into dry land, turn his two acres of dry land into sand dunes, and finally, he must be sentenced to death in front of his descendants. In this way, after several years, if the descendants of the bandit want to continue to do evil, he will first look at the dilapidated homeland, the two acres of dry land, the two acres of sand dunes, and then carefully consider the consequences of doing evil. I think that at that time, the chance of war breaking out will be much smaller."

After Chu Sinan said this, he sat back on his chair leisurely, picked up the teacup on the coffee table beside him, and took a sip of it happily.

Biyatrisa had to admit that the general who claimed to be a military general in front of her was very good. At least the analogy he made was very vivid and appropriate, but she could not feel any humorous. On the contrary, her sensitive professional touch could even feel an extremely strong smell of blood through these seemingly unintentional words. In the past, Biyatrisa once thought of her father. The guy who always liked to claim that she was a professional soldier, the coldest and most unreasonable person in the world. Now it seems that compared with the yellow-skinned young man in front of her, her father is obviously more gentle. Perhaps, maybe when these two men sat together, they would have more common language besides those ideological things.

The fifteen-minute interview passed in an instant. After sending Biatrisa, Chu Sinan stood in front of the magnificent blue floor-to-ceiling window, watching the American female reporter who had just left the room boarding a black sedan, and a thought-provoking smile appeared on the corners of her slightly raised mouth.

"Comrade Xie Mishisnei," said Chu Sinan suddenly, after a moment of silence, "Would you say that the person who drove for Miss Biatrisa be from the CIA?"

Behind Chu Sinan, a tall and thin middle-aged man in casual clothes stood there quietly. His kind smile could definitely give people the feeling of a peacemaker. However, people who truly know his identity would never regard him as a peacemaker. On the contrary, they would be as afraid of him as a snake or scorpion, because he was not a small character, he was the number one general under Kluchkov, and the director of the external liaison office of the Security Committee Vladimir Yefimovich Xiemisnei. All the Soviet intelligence organizations and spies abroad were controlled by this person, and the so-called spies, sabotage elements, and remnants of the white bandits in China were also secretly executed by his hands, publicly or secretly through his hands. This time when he came to Tehran, Chu Sinan did not bring Kluchkov, but with this "smiling tiger". The purpose was naturally self-evident.

"General, that's hard to say," Xiemisnei stepped forward, looked out the window, and said with a smile, "But if the general gives me an hour, I can tell you the exact identity of the driver."

"Haha, no need," Chu Sinan turned his head and reached out to pat the confident guy on the shoulder, and smiled, "I'm just talking casually. There's no need to focus on these irrelevant things."

"It's the general." Xiemisnei replied respectfully.

Chu Sinan was obviously quite satisfied with the attitude of the spy leader. He walked back to the front of the chair, picked up his pack of cigarettes from the coffee table, took out one and handed it to Xie Mishisnei.

"I remember you were smoking too, let's have one, American goods." Chu Sinan said with a smile.

"Thank you, General," Xie Misi Nei was not polite. He took out the cigarette before Chu Sinan and lit it for the two of them.

"Oh, yes," said Chu Sinan, sitting in the seat again. He pointed to the chair opposite, signaling the intelligence leader to sit down, and said, "You just said that a French friend wanted to take me. Oh, in order to deal with General Patton's baby daughter, I didn't hear it clearly. Let's talk about it now, what's going on."

"It's such a general," Shemisnei took out a thick notebook from somewhere, opened a few pages, and looked at it, "This man is George Pompidou. According to himself, he came secretly this time to represent the current 'free France, leader Charles de Gaulle, and I investigated the details of this man through secret channels, and it turns out that what he said should be without false elements."

Then, Xie Misnei reported in detail about Pompidou's personal situation, including when he was born, what important experience he had, and his current position with Charles de Gaulle, etc.

In fact, there is no need for too much introduction from Xie Misnei. Chu Sinan also knows the specific origin of Pompidou. Originally, after the war, the second Western European political strongman who ignored the Western blockade and firmly advocated the development of diplomatic relations with China, how could Chu Sinan not know? It’s just that before that, Chu Sinan didn’t know that Mr. Pompidou had actually been Charles De Gaulle’s personal aide. No wonder this guy would consistently implement De Gaulle’s political proposition after taking over the power.

"There is nothing between us and France... Hiss, why did they choose to contact us at this time?" Chu Sinan stroked his chin and said in confusion.

"We have analyzed it," said Shemisnei. "The French chose to contact us this time because they were influenced by the Casablanca meeting not long ago. According to our intelligence, after that meeting, the United States and Britain seemed to be interested in causing some trouble for future post-war France."
