Chapter 1140 Surrender

Several thoughts swirled in General Timoshenko's mind. He could tell that Major General Korobkov really wanted to surrender. This is undoubtedly an opportunity for him.

"Comrade Korobkov, if those political workers knew what you were thinking, they would definitely arrest you and shoot you without trial!" General Timoshenko said.

"If we continue to fight the Germans, it will be a dead end. Anyway, we are all dead, so it is better to fight. Maybe there will be a chance. Besides, I will not sit still." Major General Korobkov said.

General Timoshenko nodded. He knew that Korobkov was determined to surrender to the Germans.

"If Major General Golubev can participate in it, then this matter will be feasible." General Timoshenko said.

Major General Golubev is the commander of the Russian 10th Army. The 10th Army is a powerful group army with more troops than the 4th Army. It has the 1st and 5th Infantry Army, the 6th and 13th Mechanized Army, the 6th Cavalry Army, and the 155th Infantry Division. Although in the previous battles, the 10th Army also suffered heavy losses. However, the remaining strength is among the Russian troops in Smolensk, which can be regarded as the group army with the largest number of troops.

Major General Korobkov was taken aback for a moment, and then elated. From General Timoshenko's words, he had already heard what he meant. That is, General Timoshenko seems to have agreed with him. This is undoubtedly a great thing for him. With the support of General Timoshenko, many things will be much easier.

"Comrade Commander, Comrade Golubev, I'm afraid it will take the commander to persuade him. I think that, after the matter has come to this point, Comrade Golubev will definitely make the right choice!" Major General Korobkov said.

General Timoshenko thought for a moment, then nodded.

"Comrade Commander, I will immediately organize my confidants when I go back. As long as you give an order, I will arrest those guys!" Major General Korobkov said excitedly.

"Okay, I'll summon Comrade Golubev right away," General Timoshenko said.

After Major General Korobkov left, General Timoshenko immediately asked his secretary to call Major General Golubev.

Soon, Major General Golubev rushed to the office of General Timoshenko.

General Timoshenko confided everything to Major General Golubev. He was not afraid of Major General Golubev going to Gaomi, because Major General Golubev could be regarded as his old subordinate. In addition, the current situation is like this. If it is not like the surrender of the Germans, everyone will have only a dead end in the end. Therefore, based on General Timoshenko's understanding of Major General Golubev, he believes that Major General Golubev will definitely make the right choice.

In fact, that's exactly what happened. Major General Golubev also did not want to die. Without any hesitation, he agreed to cooperate. As long as the 4th Army is launched, he will also order the arrest of those political workers.

General Timoshenko was very satisfied with Major General Golubev's statement. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, General Timoshenko decided to take action tomorrow.

After receiving the order from General Timoshenko, Major General Korobkov, the commander of the Russian 4th Army, first ordered the arrest of those political workers in the army. At the same time, he led the confidant troops to the headquarters of the front army. Major General Golubev, commander of the 10th Army, also issued the same order.

For a while, the political workers of the two main group armies of the Western Front were all arrested.

Front headquarters, troops led by Major General Korobkov, took over the defense here. Under General Timoshenko's instruction, the guards at the headquarters did not resist.

Subsequently, Major General Korobkov led people directly into the office of General Fominekh, the political commissar of the Front Army.

Seeing Major General Korobkov rushing into his office with people, Admiral Fominekh's expression changed drastically.

"Comrade Korobkov, what are you trying to do? It's a capital offense to bring someone to attack the headquarters without permission!" Fominekh said sternly.

"Dear Comrade Political Commissar, unfortunately, your current order can no longer scare me!" Major General Korobkov sneered.

"Come on, arrest Comrade Commissar!" Major General Korobkov ordered.

"How dare you!" Admiral Fominekh shouted.

However, no one took him seriously as a political commissar at all, and the soldiers directly arrested him.

After being dragged out of the office, Admiral Forminekh saw General Timoshenko.

"Comrade Commander, save me! These people are going to start a mutiny!" Admiral Fominekh shouted.

However, General Timoshenko didn't even look at him.

Admiral Forminekh immediately knew that all of this was led by General Timoshenko behind the scenes. He also guessed the intention of General Timoshenko and others all at once.

"Timoshenko, how dare you betray Comrade Joseph, our party and country! Comrade Joseph will never let you go. Your family members will all be hanged!" Admiral Fominekh cursed.

The complexions of General Timoshenko and the others suddenly became unsightly. He knew that what Admiral Fominekh had said was true. Bu'e has always been very strict with traitors and surrenderers. Even if they can't be dealt with for a while, their family members who stay in Bu'e will definitely suffer because of it. At the least, they were sent to Siberia to dig potatoes, and at worst, they were shot or hanged directly. Joseph, this person, would not say anything that would harm his family. When he is crazy, he can do anything.

General Timoshenko knew that his family members might be doomed this time.

However, he was not reconciled to asking him to stop. He is only in his forties now, if he dies like this, it is not worth it.

"Comrade Forminekh, if our family members are killed by Joseph, I swear that I will never let him go! One day, I will kill him with my own hands!" Timoshenko said through gritted teeth.

Admiral Forminech was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what to say. He knew that General Timoshenko and others were determined to betray Buo, and it was useless to say anything.

After arresting the political workers in the army and taking control of the army, General Timoshenko immediately sent someone to contact the German side, hoping that the German side would accept their surrender.

General Timoshenko also does not know whether the German side will accept them. However, this is the last way out.
