Chapter 1041 Do Iranians Know (Plus 2)

Since Yakov was captured, he was going to be rescued. If he died, there was nothing he could do.

In this case, Stalin was absolutely embarrassed to say it. After all, he wanted to lead the entire Soviet. If he used too many troops to save one of his sons, it would have a bad impact. His son is a son. 's son, isn't it?

In order to save him, more people died, is it worth it?

Therefore, Voroshinov simply put forward a new opinion. Since it was sent to Tehran, then simply shoot Tehran down. This kind of strategic significance is even more important. After becoming a Soviet, are you afraid that Yakov will not be rescued?

"Yes, let's just mobilize the army and attack Tehran directly!" Khrushchev responded, this is a good way to kill two birds with one stone, just right.

Seeing that the two were in high spirits, Zhukov, who was behind, couldn't help shaking his head.

If looking at the map, Tehran is not very far from the Caspian Sea. It seems that the Soviet army can rush past it in a day. In fact, it is the opposite. Except for the plains along the Caspian Sea coast, and further south, all belong to the Caspian Sea. Mountains too.

The northern part of Tehran is shrouded by the tall Alborz Mountains, including the Damavand Mountains, which are 5,600 meters above sea level, as well as countless rivers and two reservoirs. In the north, the terrain is steep and easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Why fight Qazvin? Because from the border of the Caspian Sea, the mountain road to Qazvin is relatively easy to walk, and there is a relatively wide road from Qazvin to Tehran. In this way, Qazvin can be regarded as the western gate of Tehran. It is necessary to bite the hard bone of Qazvin.

Now, to bypass Qazvin and go directly to Tehran?

How to get around? There are only sheep's intestines all around, and the tanks are not easy to drive! Do you want to repeat the terrible back road of the previous period when the cavalry was eliminated by the establishment?

In his heart, Zhukov was extremely disgusted with such a way of disregarding any common sense and commanding one's anger, but he still held back.

After all, it was Stalin's son who was captured. At this time, if Zhukov poured cold water on him, his fate would be terrifying. The aftermath of the purge has not yet calmed down. Even if Zhukov made a lot of credit, he could easily be beaten. Like Tukhachevsky.

Zhukov didn't want to get in trouble, especially since this was only a local war, and it had nothing to do with the life and death of the Soviets. The big deal was that they lost more troops.

Zhukov, who used soldiers like a god, knew not to spoil the fun at this time, so he deliberately ducked back. However, as if seeing through Zhukov's thoughts, Stalin's eyes were actually on Zhukov's body, and then he said: "Zhukov, what do you think?"

Damn it! Zhukov cursed in his heart, this is simply trying to derail his own rhythm. At this time, it is definitely inappropriate to say no to fight. Does that mean giving up on saving Stalin's son? It would be inappropriate to say fighting. Zhukov already had a hunch that if he fought, it would definitely be a defeat. At that time, Stalin would put the blame for the defeat on Zhukov.

Zhukov couldn't bear this pot. He quickly came up with this in his mind, and he already understood what Stalin meant.

Zhukov could see it, but why couldn't Stalin see it? Now, Stalin is undecided, so he wants to hear Zhukov's opinion, but unfortunately, no matter what Zhukov says, it is wrong!

Countless schemes were quickly revolving in Zhukov's mind, and suddenly, Zhukov thought of something.

"Comrade Khrushchev, I want to ask, do the Iranians know the true identity of the captured Yakov now?" Zhukov did not directly answer Stalin's words, but asked Khrushchev on the side.

Do Iranians know? This question is really important!

Khrushchev was suddenly asked, how could he know whether the Iranians knew it or not! However, Yakov is the eldest son of Stalin. It is a secret in the army. Only a few people know about it. I am afraid that the Iranians are more likely to not know?

Thinking of this, Khrushchev suddenly understood the true meaning of Zhukov's question, and immediately cursed himself for being stupid.

If the Iranians don't know Yakov's true identity, then Yakov is an ordinary prisoner like everyone else. At least now the Soviet Union has not done any brutal things. Both sides should abide by the Geneva Convention. In the prisoner of war camp, Yakov was not subjected to any abuse.

However, if the Iranians know Yakov's identity, it will be troublesome. Maybe they will use Yakov to coerce the top Soviet leaders. At that time, Stalin will be in trouble.

But now, the two sides are working hard in Qazvin and want to make a big fight. If the Soviet army turns around and attacks Tehran, there will be too many doubts. For Yakov, it will bring even more trouble to the Soviets!

Thinking of this, Khrushchev's face turned pale. He had already left the power center once because of a mistake. Now, he can't make any more mistakes!

The expression on Khrushchev's face was gloomy and uncertain, he hesitated and did not speak, everyone was not a fool, and immediately understood the meaning.

This matter cannot be publicized, let alone fanfare. The best way now is to secretly send capable personnel to rescue Yakov!

The anxious Zhukov saved his predicament with a single word. He did not offend Stalin and pointed out Khrushchev's stupidity. Stalin did not speak, turned around and slowly smoked the cigarette pot.

"Qazvin's plan remains unchanged, continue to attack Qazvin!" Stalin said: "Beria, come here, there is a special task that I have to give you to do."

Khrushchev's face was ugly. He knew that his position in Stalin's heart had declined again. He could only look at Beria and went to another room with Stalin. Needless to say, he must have discussed how to rescue him.

Although Stalin didn't communicate much with his eldest son in normal times, when something really happened, Stalin still cared about his son.

At this time, Yakov, who was far away in another world, was staying with his comrades in a dark and damp cell.

"Will these Iranians kill us?" a soldier said involuntarily, looking at the moonlight from the small window.

"Of course not, we are prisoners of war and are protected by the Geneva Convention, but I hope we die on the battlefield." Yakov said, glancing at Ivan.
