Chapter 456 Molotov (1)

"Haaaa!"

Yannick yawned loudly. Normally, he would have gone to bed early. But today there was a special guest, Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov, who came late at night.

Originally, Molotov was going to visit tomorrow, but he was taken to the palace as soon as he got off the plane; he was taken to Yannick's private reception room.

There were only three people in the entire reception room, Yannick, Reinhard, and Molotov.

Molotov was puzzled by Yannick's arrangement, which was not in line with diplomatic etiquette.

After the host and the guest greeted each other and sat down, Yannick went straight to the point. "I guess Molotov came here to 'call for punishment' for the Battle of Finland?" Because of Germany's secret support, the Soviet Union fought harder this time than in the original time and space, and the casualties were greater.

Molotov was secretly shocked. He didn't expect Yannick to bring up this matter on his own initiative.

Is he confident or just ready to tear his face off? After thinking for a while, Molotov calmed down and said in a deep voice. "We had a conflict with Finland, but suddenly there were a lot of German weapons in the Finnish army. What's going on?" So far, they have suffered more than 500,000 casualties, and the death toll alone has reached 100,000.

The main reason is that the Finns' weapons have suddenly changed from shotguns to cannons. Not only are they equipped with advanced weapons and equipment such as BF109 and Jackal tanks, but they are also very good at operation.

What does this show? !

Obviously, Finland has received reinforcements, and has received a large number of reinforcements from a certain country! !

Such a country, looking at Europe today, who else can there be except Germany? !

Yannick smiled and said. "Our German weapons are the world's top, and naturally many countries have imitated them. The German equipment that appeared in the Finnish War may not be supported by us." Without waiting for Molotov to ask, he continued. "But since your country believes that we are secretly supporting it, it must be us."

"!!"

Admitted it! !

Shamelessly admitted it! !

Molotov opened his mouth. Yannick's open admission was beyond his expectation! He originally thought that the Germans would never admit it! Really honest, no, really arrogant! !

A wave of anger rushed to his head, and Molotov gritted his teeth. "You are seriously trampling on the treaty!"

The Soviet Union and Germany had signed the "Soviet-German Non-Aggression Treaty" before, which included a clause that "If one of the contracting parties goes to war with a third country, the other contracting party shall not provide any support to the third country." According to this regulation, Germany should not have interfered in the Soviet-Finnish War, but in fact, the Germans were secretly supporting the Finns!

Yannick still looked calm and composed, and there was no change at all. "Oh, so, what are you going to do? Declare war on us?!"

"!!" Molotov didn't know what to say for a while. If there was no damn Finland, it would be entirely possible for the Soviet Union to tear up the agreement, send troops to the border, and start a war in the east of Germany. After all, the Soviet Union did not want to see a powerful and terrifying unified Western European empire appear in its west.

Seeing Molotov's face turn green and red, Yannick continued to stab him in the heart happily. "Your country can't even take down a small country like Finland, and you still want to challenge us, Germany? It's really laughable. I think it's better for your country to pretend not to know about this. After all, if this matter is put on the table, then we can only publicly support Finland and even send troops to Finland."

Molotov felt that his chest was so tight that he was about to spit out blood. He took the wine glass in front of him with a trembling hand and drank a sip of wine.

Yannick was right. At this time, the Soviet Union was in a mess because of the Soviet-Finnish War. Compared with the German army sweeping across Europe, the combat effectiveness of the Soviet army was extremely poor. The Soviet high-level officials have reached a consensus that the construction of the Soviet mechanized forces has a long way to go. Before the emergence of a real armored force comparable to Germany, the Soviet Union is not suitable for launching a large-scale war with Germany.

Since we can't tear our faces apart immediately, we can only continue to pretend to be friendly.

After drinking a large glass of wine in one breath, Molotov mentioned another thing. "I heard that our aircraft carrier has been completed?"

"The two aircraft carriers?" Yannick's smile was a little weird. "Oh, the two aircraft carriers, they are indeed completed and are undergoing sea trials. But they have been requisitioned by the German Navy and cannot be returned to your country in a short time."

With a "bang", the cup in Molotov's hand slammed heavily on the table. "You!"

This is really too much!

Do you think the Soviets will be afraid of you? !

"Is your country determined to declare war on us?!"

Yannick shrugged. "There is a saying that goes, 'How can I allow others to sleep soundly beside my bed?' The existence of the Soviet Union is a great threat to Germany. How much energy should we devote to guard against your country? So it is best to destroy it. But Mr. Molotov, don't worry. Although we are indeed ready to fight your country, now is not the right time after all. At least we have to wait until we deal with Britain and rest for a while before we can take action. So I have to trouble you to buy us this time and coax Stalin well."

"What?" Molotov suspected that he had hallucinations, but he heard Yannick continue. "I believe that Mr. Molotov will stand on our side and join the camp against Stalin."

"Ridiculous!" Molotov stood up suddenly and was about to leave.

"It's not ridiculous! You'll know if you take a look at this newspaper." Yannick waved his hand, and Reinhard, who had been silent, took out a newspaper and pushed it in front of Molotov.

Molotov only glanced at it and saw the big headline on the newspaper. "Germany's most loyal friend, Molotov exposes Stalin's ugly conspiracy!"

Below it was a photo of Molotov and Yannick shaking hands. Of course, the photo is not the point, this is an old photo taken when Molotov visited a long time ago.

Molotov subconsciously picked up the newspaper and took a closer look. The content was the agreement signed by the Soviet Union and Britain. It was about Britain ceding the Indian colony to the Soviet Union in exchange for the Soviet Union's war on Germany.

"This, this!!" Molotov's face turned pale to the extreme.

Yannick said leisurely. "Just now, Mr. Molotov said that we trampled on the treaty? Now tell me who trampled on the treaty first?"

Molotov blurted out. "This, this is absolutely a rumor, we have never done such a deal!"

"Oh? Really?" Yannick showed a scornful smile on his face. "Since we haven't done it, then 'a person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear', even if we publish this newspaper, it won't have any impact, right?"
