Chapter 1561 Joseph's Decision

If the main enemy of the German Navy in this war is the US Navy, then the main enemy of the German Army is the Russian Army. At least, in the early days of this war, the German Army put the main target on the Russian Army.

Russia, which has an army of more than 10 million, undoubtedly poses a great threat to Germany. If Russia is not defeated, Germany will not be at ease in a decisive battle with the United States.

Fortunately, although the Russian Army has a large number of troops, its combat effectiveness is not strong. At least compared with the elite German Army, the combat effectiveness of the Russian Army is much worse. Coupled with the successful use of tactics, the German Army was able to eliminate the main force of the Russian Army at the beginning of the war. This also makes the development of the next battle situation logical. The German army pushed all the way and almost captured the capital of Russia. Moreover, the vital forces of the Russian army were almost lost in the battle to defend the capital and major cities such as Josephgrad. Without these troops, it will undoubtedly be much easier for Germany to destroy Russia.

Germany's strategic goals against Russia have always been carried out in this direction.

However, with the victory of the German navy, the Russians seemed to have lost hope. They found that if they continued to defend Moscow and Josephgrad, not only would they lose troops, but they would also have no effect. Once all the Russian troops are wiped out by the German army, then Russia will never have any chance in this war.

Joseph was originally a staunch defender of Moscow and Josephgrad. In order to show his determination, Joseph even did not hesitate to risk his life and stay in Moscow, which was about to be besieged. Joseph is not a person who is not afraid of death, he cherishes his life very much. Now he is already the supreme leader of Russia, and he doesn't want to die. Because if you die, you will no longer be able to enjoy the wonderful taste of power.

But Joseph ignored his own safety because he had great confidence in the United States and believed that the United States could defeat Germany in one fell swoop in this war.

But what he didn't expect was that the U.S. Navy lost so badly in this battle. This also made Joseph lose confidence in the United States. Under such circumstances, Joseph could not help but start to consider other ways out.

General Zhukov suggested that Joseph leave Moscow and retreat to the east of the Ural Mountains before the German army encircled Moscow, and continue to lead Russia in the fight against Germany.

I have to admit that Joseph was quite moved by this. In comparison, if you stay in Moscow, it is almost a dead end. Wait until the German army surrounded Moscow and conquered it in one fell swoop. At that time, Joseph will only have a dead end. But if you can escape from Moscow and retreat east of the Ural Mountains, you may be able to survive for a while. At that time, perhaps the battle situation will have a certain turning point.

However, Joseph also worried that once he left Moscow, he would no longer be able to control the overall situation. Joseph was still a little worried about handing over all the troops to the generals on the front line. In order to control the military power, he killed many people. This will inevitably make many people hold a grudge against it.

"Damn, why are the Americans so ungrateful? Should I stay in Moscow, or leave here?" Joseph seemed to be caught in a dilemma.

"Comrade Joseph, Comrade Molotov, please see me," the secretary reported.

"Well, let him in!" Joseph nodded.

"Good evening, Comrade Joseph!" Molotov said respectfully.

Although now the big ship of Russia seems to be sinking. But these senior leaders in Russia are even more in awe of Joseph, and they don't mean to ignore Joseph at all because of this. After all, they were all worried that Joseph would go crazy and attack them when they were desperate. In that case, their safety cannot be guaranteed.

"Comrade Molotov, please sit down!" Joseph tried to put on a calm look.

"Comrade Joseph, just received a telegram from the United States. The United States claims that although their navy has temporarily lost. However, the United States will not give up on this. They will rebuild their navy in the shortest possible time and let their navy recover. Strength, once again challenged the German Navy." Molotov said.

"Huh! Are those damn Americans still trustworthy? Their navy has been severely damaged. How much strength do they have to deal with the Germans now? Can the navy be rebuilt in a while? Besides, the Germans Already occupying an absolute advantage, it is impossible for the Americans to defeat the Germans." Joseph looked angry. It was as if he was dissatisfied that the Americans had failed his expectations.

Molotov nodded: "Comrade Joseph, I also think that the Americans just want to reassure us, and then let us continue to stick here and help them hold the Germans back."

"Yes, Comrade Molotov. Those despicable Americans have that in mind," said Joseph.

"So, Comrade Joseph, what shall we do?" asked Molotov.

Joseph thought for a while, and then said: "Comrade Zhukov suggested that we leave Moscow and go to the east of the Ural Mountains to continue fighting against the Germans. At the same time, no more reinforcements will be sent to Moscow and Josephgrad to preserve our vitality. In this regard, What do you think?"

As a senior leader of Russia, Molotov naturally knew this.

"Comrade Joseph, it is indeed very difficult for us to defend Moscow and Josephgrad. Judging from the current situation, it is difficult for us to resist the German attack. If we continue to defend, it will only make our troops Pay a greater price," Molotov said.

Although, Molotov did not make a clear statement. However, his attitude is undoubtedly very obvious.

Joseph naturally understood what Molotov meant. He also knew that if he continued to stick to it, it would only become more and more detrimental to Russia.

"Okay, I see." Joseph said.

Molotov did not stay long, and then took his leave.

Joseph thought about it all night, and early the next morning, he issued an order for the Russian government agencies to withdraw from Moscow. At the same time, the sending of reinforcements to Moscow was stopped. As for when he will leave Moscow, he hasn't figured it out yet.
