Chapter 54 Tukhachevsky (Plus 6)
Mikhail Nikolaevich Tukhachevsky, one of the first five marshals of the Soviet Union, has the title of "Napoleon of the Red Army".
The marshal was born in 1893 and graduated from the Alexander Military School in 1914. He participated in the First World War and was appreciated by Lenin during the Soviet-Russian Civil War, becoming one of the most capable army commanders. After the war, he vigorously promoted the modernization of the Red Army and was one of the core figures of the Soviet army.
It is a pity that an excellent general could not escape the arrangement of fate. During the Great Purge, he was sentenced to death for espionage and immediately shot.
The crime at that time was to have an affair with Germany!
Perhaps, in the dark, this is the arrangement of fate! Cyric has long been thinking about how to use Stalin's purge to make a fuss, and now, Tukhachevsky, absolutely cannot escape this fate!
"Marshal, I'm deeply honored. I'm just a major. It's up to you to meet me in person." Cyric said to Tukhachevsky.
"Major Cyric, I believe that the epaulette on your shoulder will soon shine." Tukhachevsky said: "This is your lady?"
Hannah nodded, and Cyric suddenly realized that he had been exposed to his wife's light again!
The Soviet Union is not looking at this little major at all, but the Krupp family! In the Krupp family, there is something the Soviet Union needs!
General Cyric introduced the people behind him one by one, especially when he heard that there was a naval colonel who came with Cyric, Tukhachevsky was also stunned, the major led the team, and the colonel followed. Really haven't seen it!
Of course, Tukhachevsky knew that Cyric's military rank was only temporary. As the son-in-law of the Krupp family, as an important staff member of the current German Chancellor, and as a figure valued by President Hindenburg, Cyric's Soaring through the ages, it is certain.
"Major Cyric, look at how the socialist construction of our Soviet is going?" Sitting in the car on the way to the guest house, looking at the scene outside, Tukhachevsky confidently asked Cyric to said.
"Like us in Germany, once the enthusiasm of the people rises, they can build our new country with a hundredfold strength," Ciric said.
This scene, in Germany, is also in full swing. The power of the people is inexhaustible!
If any political party wants to succeed, it must gain the support of the people! How could Hitler start World War II without the absolute support of the people?
After all, Cyric's current status is still very small, and the following people will discuss it properly first, and then the big man above will come forward. Therefore, it is normal that Cyric will not see Stalin during this visit.
In the guest house in Moscow, the two sides sat down and exchanged greetings, and then the formal talks began.
"We came this time with friendly sincerity, hoping that we can get closer and cooperate in various aspects." Cyric said: "After all, we are all hated by Britain, France and the United States."
This is also the only common denominator that can be found. Fortunately, Hitler has not yet engaged in the arson case in the Congress. When Hindenburg was still alive, Hitler had to hold his tail and pretend to be a little sheep.
"So, what kind of cooperation are you interested in?" Tukhachevsky said.
Smart people don't make conditions first, but let the other party make conditions, and then they can deal with it randomly.
"For example, there is still a big shortage in the field of precision machining in the Soviet Union. Krupp can export some machine tools for precision machining to the Soviet Union." Cyric said: "As a transaction, we hope that you will allow us some Civil aviation organization, flying in the Soviet flying club."
Export precision machine tools! This is also an idea of Tukhachevsky. Taking advantage of the Germans' arrival this time, the idea is to let them export some to the Soviet Union! All aspects of Soviet industry require precision machine tools! This is an important aspect of the industrial technological advancement that plagued the Soviets!
Now, the other party actually took the initiative to bring it up!
As for civilian flights, Tukhachevsky certainly knew what was going on, but this deal seemed to be a complete bargain!
"Of course, we also have many civil aviation groups, and we can communicate and cooperate with each other." Tukhachevsky agreed immediately.
"Also, the Soviet Union's steel production is still not high, and we, Krupp, have a lot of excess production capacity now." Cyric said: "We can import a large amount of ore from the Soviet Union, and then convert steel products. , and then export to the Soviets, we can even barter, the Soviets do not need to spend any funds, only need to export the corresponding various ores."
The Soviet Union is now short of foreign exchange reserves! Moreover, the West is in an economic crisis, and banknotes are worthless. Now, goods are directly traded in Germany. Now, Cyric proposes this kind of plan, which is completely in the interest of the Soviet Union.
Just, why is this?
The Soviet Union's steel output is small, so it is possible to build more steel plants, and there is no need to carry out such a troublesome trade with Germany?
For Germany, of course, there are benefits, increasing employment opportunities! Moreover, the various ores imported from the Soviet Union must be much higher than the exported steel, and the profit in the middle is all.
Moreover, you can also import all kinds of rare ores and store them!
And most importantly, the following!
"Our steel products can be railways, locomotives, or other things, such as 283mm naval guns," Cyric said.
283mm naval gun! Hearing this, the expression on Tukhachevsky's face was instantly astonished.
What do you want, what do you want!
Still too young, unlike those old political fritters, now, Tukhachevsky's expression is seen by Cyric, and he knows that this plan will definitely be implemented smoothly!
On the plane, Cyric and Colonel Lütjens had an in-depth exchange. Lütjens is an absolute artilleryist. In the future battleships, he very much hopes to have 380mm or even 406mm heavy artillery!
Therefore, it is absolutely no problem to export the already backward 283mm naval gun to the Soviet Union! Also, this is the beginning of a chain of programs that can be continued if the Soviets are interested!
