Chapter 129 Conspiracy

These days, the British envoys sent to Poland and the Soviet Union have been talking their mouths off.

They are also full of grievances. If it weren't for the step-by-step connivance of those bigwigs, it wouldn't have become what it is today. Britain's calculations were originally very good, making Germany stronger to check and balance France, so as to prevent France from dominating the European continent. As a result, the dog that was originally thought to be obedient broke free from its shackles and showed its fangs without knowing it!

This is not what the British Empire wants to see. Germany needs to be contained, and the most appropriate solution is to find a new country to check and balance Germany!

Although Britain has taken a fancy to Poland, it also knows that Poland alone cannot stop Germany. The Soviet Union, which has made enemies with Germany in the Spanish Civil War, seems to be a good helper.

However, what makes the British envoy uncomfortable is that the Polish government does not welcome the Soviets and firmly opposes the Soviets from entering Polish territory; and the Soviets sneer at the British proposal.

After all, over the years, the grievances between the Soviet Union and Poland are hard to explain, and it is simply a century-old feud.

For 500 years, Russia and Poland have been in constant grievances. The greedy Russia has participated in the partition of Poland three times, and the ambitious Polish army has entered Moscow twice.

Poland was once a great power in history, but it perished under the continuous partition of Russia and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After the end of World War I, Poland became independent. The Polish leader wanted to realize the "great power dream". He first sent a request for unity to Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania and other countries, asking everyone to form a powerful "Eastern European Federation" with Poland as the core. However, everyone knew what Poland wanted to do and decisively rejected Poland's proposal.

In 1919, the Soviet-Polish War broke out. At that time, the Soviet Red Army attacked all the way to the city of Warsaw, but was eventually forced to choose a ceasefire due to lack of successors. This incident has always inspired the Polish leadership, who believe that they can disintegrate the Soviet Union. Poland quickly established multiple intelligence agencies to infiltrate the Soviet Union. Separatist forces, ethnic minorities and extremists in the Caucasus, Ukraine and Central Asia were all their targets of incitement.

Is the Soviet Union a loser? After the outbreak of World War II in the original time and space, the Soviet Union attacked Poland crazily. The German army also handed over all the secrets of the Polish spy department to the Soviet Union. It was not until this time that the Soviets realized how crazy Poland's investigation of the Soviet Union was. Even the detailed background information of Soviet officers above the company level stationed in Ukraine and Belarus was clearly checked.

The Soviets simply fought back and almost wiped out the entire Polish elite class in the Katyn Massacre. In the later Warsaw Uprising, the Soviet army, which had agreed with Poland, did not send troops to help as agreed, resulting in the massacre of social elites and civilians in Warsaw.

Seeing that the Poles were as smelly and hard as stones in a pit, and they were not willing to eat oil and salt, the British envoy gradually lost his patience and a surge of anger rose in his heart. These days, they have been trying their best to promote the Polish-Soviet peace talks. Although it is out of selfishness and hopes to rely on Poland to contain Germany, it is also beneficial to Poland.

Since the Poles are so confident, then when the Germans come, see how you ask for help!

Just as the British envoy left Poland in dismay, a discussion began in faraway Moscow.

Poland's refusal was very wise, because Stalin believed that Britain and France were not reliable at all. After all, the fate of Czechoslovakia was there, and who knew how Britain and France would stab Poland in the back at a critical moment.

If Poland really agreed to the Soviet army entering Polish territory, the Soviet Union would definitely give Poland an unforgettable "help".

"Britain and France are unreliable." There were not many Soviet marshals. In 1935, only five people were awarded. Then, several were killed in the Great Purge. Now, this Soviet marshal with a signature mustache is Budyonny, a cavalry veteran who has been in the military all his life. He is also one of Stalin's most trusted people.

"Look at the fate of Czechoslovakia. At a critical moment, Britain and France will abandon their allies without hesitation." Stalin said. "So, the promises made by Britain to us are all unreliable."

Trust Britain and France? It's better to believe that sows can climb trees!

What's more, the British envoy had just arrived, and the German secret envoy followed. Compared with the flashy and unreliable promises of the British envoy, the German secret envoy only brought one sentence: Are you interested in dividing Poland? !

This simple sentence made Stalin's heart beat.

Although the Soviet Union and Germany had some unpleasantness in the last Spanish Civil War, so what? Between countries, interests are paramount. As long as there are enough interests, even if there are tensions in the morning, they can still drink and talk happily at noon. "Instead of cooperating with those capricious villains, it is better to divide Poland with Germany. What do you think?" Stalin said slowly, holding the pipe that he almost never left.

After hearing Stalin's words, many people were stunned. Didn't Britain hope that the Soviet Union would support Poland to contain Germany? How did it become dividing Poland with Germany?

Because Germany sent a secret envoy, who directly met Stalin's words, most of the people present only knew the purpose of the British envoy's visit, and didn't know that there was a German secret envoy.

But this idea is not bad!

Poland and the Soviet Union have had a feud for hundreds of years, and each of them wants to destroy the other. The Soviet Union obviously suffered a loss in the last Soviet-Polish War, but if Poland attacks from both sides together with Germany this time, then Poland will definitely be doomed!

Although Stalin's tone was inquiring, his words were authoritative in the Soviet Union today. Who dared to express opposition?

The first person to react began to flatter him. "Comrade Stalin is right. Britain and France are fickle villains."

"I agree with this decision!" Others raised their right hands.

"I agree!" "I agree!" "Support Comrade Stalin's party's decision!" "I agree!" Soon, all the delegates raised their hands, and the proposal was easily passed.

Stalin nodded with satisfaction, but his face was still gloomy. No one had seen Stalin's smile since the 560 tons of gold that was at his lips disappeared strangely. "Since everyone agrees, we should sign a non-aggression agreement with Germany. By the way, discuss our joint action to divide Poland."

But who should be sent?

If Tukhachevsky is still there, it would be the most appropriate to send him. After all, he has a good personal relationship with the German crown prince, but he has been purged. It's impossible to dig him out of the ground and dress him up and send him to Germany. The female operator in GBU is a good candidate, but unfortunately her status is not suitable. Marshal Voroshilov seemed to have a hostile attitude towards the Germans after his last visit, so he couldn't be sent.

Looking around the conference room, his eyes finally fell on Vyacheslav Mikhailovich Molotov, the People's Commissar of Foreign Affairs. He was Stalin's close comrade-in-arms and staunch supporter. "Molotov, you go to Germany."

"Yes, I promise to complete the task." Molotov immediately accepted the task. After all, the proposal was first made by the Germans. He only needed to sign an agreement with the Germans, which was not difficult.
