Chapter VIII Legion Distribution Meeting
"The above is the deployment and combat arrangements of our defensive front," Tukhachevsky breathed a deep breath, patted the situation chart with his big hand, and then said, "The final arrangement is our military deployment on the northern offensive front."
"According to my idea, we must concentrate the most advantageous forces in the shortest time to defeat the Finnish Karelian cluster in one battle, and then at the latest in early December, the southeastern Finland cluster under the city of Leningrad will be encircled. To this end, I decided to form our Karelian Front, one part of the Leningrad Front, one part of the Volkhov Front, and the entire Baltic coastal front to form the Northern Front, with ten fronts under its jurisdiction. In addition, the Radoga Lake Fleet, the North Sea Fleet, and the Onega Lake Fleet are also under the unified command of the Northern Front. Do you have any objections to this resolution?" Tukhachevsky glanced at the venue and asked at the same time.
The entire venue was silent, and there was no one who raised objections. The clerk sitting in the corner waved his pen and wrote another one on the minutes of the meeting - "Comrade Tukhachevsky proposed, and a certain resolution was passed unanimously."
"Since everyone has no objection, let's discuss the main personnel appointment issues of the Northern Front Army Command." Tukhachevsky nodded with satisfaction and said, "If you have any good opinions, you might as well put them out."
"Buzz!" The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became warm. Whether it was sitting in the meeting seat and voting to speak, or those who had no voting to speak in the back seat were discussing enthusiastically, showing a warm atmosphere of democratic gangs.
"Chu," took this opportunity to take the lead, Buluheer turned to Chu Sinan's ear and said, "The meeting will be over later. Don't forget to find Yona. He will handle the procedures for joining the party for you. This is specially explained by Mikhail."
Chu Sinan was stunned. He knew that the Yona mentioned by Buluheer was referring to Yakil, and he was also a friend of his inmate when he was imprisoned. He is now the second secretary of the CPC Central Committee and is in charge of party affairs. But what Chu Sinan didn't understand was how could Tukhachevsky ask himself to join the party for no reason? He had never joined the party in the history he had lived in before. Should he join the party here?
"My friend, if you don't join the party first, how can you be a military commissioner reasonable?" Buluheer reached out and patted his leg, and smiled.
"Hmm!" Just as Buluhell finished saying this, Konev, opposite him, said loudly after a loud cough, "Since everyone still can't think of a suitable list of personnel, then as the new chief of staff of the General Staff of the Most Command, I will first talk about my own ideas."
The venue suddenly became quiet and his eyes were fixed on Konev.
"I suggest Comrade Cui Kov be the commander of the Northern Front Army. I believe everyone here should be familiar with Comrade Cui Kov's resume. He is very suitable for this position, both in terms of his experience in war and command performance." Konev talked freely, "As for the position of military commissioner..."
Konev stopped when he said this, his eyes swept around the venue and finally fell on Chu Sinan.
"I suggest that Comrade Chu Sinan can be temporarily led by the time being. This is my opinion, of course, it is just my personal opinion." Konev said simply.
"I have no objection to Comrade Cui Koff as the commander," said Huasilevsky. "But I cannot agree with Comrade Chu Sinan as the military committee member. From a personal perspective, I admire Comrade Chu Sinan very much, but this appreciation cannot be placed on military decision-making. After all, he is too young. The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, and if you don't think carefully, you will most likely lose everything. Therefore, you must be cautious about Comrade Chu Sinan's appointment."
"I agree with Comrade Konev's proposal," Bulucher smiled and took over the topic and said, "Although Comrade Vasilevsky's concerns are very reasonable, it is because he had too little contact with Comrade Chu Sinan. Comrade Chu Sinan was in prison with me at the beginning. During the period in prison, his foresighted military ideas and cautious and bold military ideas made me admire him, as well as all those present. For this, I believe that many of the people present have proved this, including Comrade Tukhachevsky."
When Buluheer said this, the generals present who had been in prison with Chu Sinan nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I can prove this." Tukhachevsky said with a smile.
"Of course, Comrade Chu Sinan's position as a military committee member of the Northern Front Army is not without conditions," Buluheer continued, "and the most important point is that he is not a member of our party, and in terms of identity, he is not a member of our Bourvik ranks."
"Oh, this is a small problem," said Tukhachevsky. "Although Comrade Chu Sinan is not a member of our party, his revolutionary firmness and determination have been reflected in the previous struggle with Beria. You must know that at that time, even a strong-willed party member could not do better than him in the face of Beria's power. Therefore, I am willing to guarantee the status of the First Secretary of the Central Committee, the commander of the Supreme Command, and the 22-year party membership to introduce Comrade Chu Sinan to our great Bolshevik Party."
"Wow..." There was warm applause at the meeting. Now everyone knows what Tukhachevsky meant, that is, he wants to push Chu Sinan to the seat of the Northern Army Military Commissioner. Previously, Konev suggested that Huasilevsky objected and Buluhell came to vote, but in fact, they were performing a big show. The purpose of this show was to tell everyone that Chu Sinan was a comrade who had been in jail with Tukhachevsky and his men and was a comrade who had shared the joys and sorrows. Now, the military's real powers want to push him Chu Sinan up. Whoever agrees and who opposes is a personal statement. In the face of this situation, who dares to object? What is the outcome of the opposition? At least at this time, no one will go to sweep Tukhachevsky's excitement unless they are impatient.
After a while of singing and singing, Konev's proposal was passed unanimously. Oh, no, it was not unanimously passed. One person opposed it, and this person was Chu Sinan himself.
