Moscow, the capital of Russia, is also a city about to be at war. The entire city is now shrouded in the clouds of war. Although German offensive has not started yet, the atmosphere is very solemn, and the pressure is almost breathless.
German military's three Army Group surrounded Moscow from three sides, leaving only the East. German military seems to have no intention of attacking Moscow the East and completely surrounding Moscow. This left the Russia soldiers and civilians in the Moscow city a little confused, wondering what the Germany people were planning to do. However, they believe that even German military has not launched an attack now. But soon, the Germany people will definitely launch an attack. They will definitely not remain besieged like this. Not to mention anything else, the supplies consumed by German military and several Army Group every day are already an astronomical figure. If it continues like this, it will also be very detrimental to Germany. In the end, Germany will be brought down.
When German military did not launch an attack, Russia was happy to use this time to continuously replenish troops to Moscow, strengthen defenses, and prepare for the war that would break out next.
The offices of Kremlin and Joseph. In order to ensure the safety of Joseph after German offensive starts. The staff of Kremlin has modified an underground office with strong defense capabilities. However, German offensive has not started yet, so Joseph is still staying in the office on the ground.
"What on earth are the Germany people doing? They surrounded Moscow on three sides and did not launch an attack, nor did they surround our the East. Do you think the Germany people plan to continue like this?" Joseph looked confused.
Marshal Shaposhnikov, Marshal Voroshilov and General Zhukov are also unclear about this. They can only make guesses based on the information they have.
"Comrade Joseph, Germany people may be mobilizing war supplies. After all, they spent a lot of war supplies in order to annihilate our Western Front, Southwestern Front and Northwestern Front Army. Now, they need to attack Moscow To launch a large-scale attack, we must replenish these war supplies. In that case, Moscow is already very far away from German homeland. Coupled with the inconvenience of transportation facilities, it is not easy for Germany people to replenish them." Marshal Shaposhnikov said.
"Is that so? In other words, after the recruitment of Germany people is completed, the attack will begin." Joseph frowned.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph. It is expected that the Germany people will launch an attack within a week at most." General Zhukov said.
"So, why don't the Germany people send troops to block the eastern part of Moscow?" Joseph then asked.
Zhukov hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Comrade Joseph, maybe Germany people don't have enough troops."
"How is this possible? They have gathered millions of troops around Moscow." Joseph was obviously not satisfied with this answer.
"Comrade Joseph, Germany people should deliberately not surround the eastern part of Moscow and give us a direction to retreat. In this case, our army will not be determined to stick to Moscow. Germany people are trying to undermine the confidence of our troops in this way." Zhukov quickly changed his rhetoric.
"So that's it! Humph, Germany people are so despicable. However, our soldiers are the most determined and brave fighters, and we will not give up Moscow. In order to defend Moscow, we will fight to the death with the Germany people. By then, the Germany people will find that their attempts will never have any effect!" Joseph said.
"Yes, Comrade Joseph. This tactic of the Germany people is definitely a stupid move. We can completely evacuate the wounded through the eastern part of Moscow and transport more troops and supplies to Moscow. In this way, we can persist in Moscow for a longer time. There will be no problem even if we defeat the Germany people." Marshal Shaposhnikov said.
Joseph nodded with satisfaction. He also believed that this would be very beneficial for the Russian army to defend Moscow. As long as a steady stream of supplies and troops arrive at Moscow, they can persist until the end, and even use Moscow to severely damage German military and defeat German military.
However, is this really what Marshal Shaposhnikov and others said, was it really Germany who made a stupid move? Marshal Shaposhnikov and others can be considered cunning. They also guessed the true intention of Germany, but they didn't dare to tell Joseph clearly. In that case, it might anger Joseph.
As the Russian army continued to be defeated on the front line, Joseph's temper became increasingly weird. Once he is angered, even a senior general in the military will never end well.
"By the way, comrades, let me tell you some good news. United States has sent a notice that they will soon start a war against Germany. Therefore, as long as we persist, the situation of the war will soon turn around. By then, we will defeat the Germany people and win this war!" Joseph said with a smile on his face.
"Comrade Joseph, it would be great if Americans can join the war in time. With United States's military strength, it will definitely be able to attract Germany's main military force. In that case, our pressure will be much less." Marshal Voroshilov said.
"Comrade Voroshilov, you are a little too optimistic. First of all, has Americans really decided to go to war with Germany this time? Or is he still deceiving us. Secondly, US Army wants to land on Europe, their navy must first defeat German Navy. Otherwise, everything is empty talk." General Zhukov said.
"Americans shouldn't deceive us. After all, if we are defeated by the Germany people, they will not benefit at all. As for whether American Navy can defeat German Navy, it depends on Americans. Americans has been developing the navy for so many years, so it won't be without any certainty." Marshal Shaposhnikov said.
Obviously, everyone tends to American Navy to defeat German Navy and relieve the pressure on Russia. Although there is no argument for such a source of confidence. However, this is undoubtedly what they expected.
"Comrades, no matter what, as long as Americans joins the war, it is a good thing!" Joseph said.
