I Became Stalin?!

Chapter 179

Those damn traitors! They all deserve to die!!!

Mr. Chiang! Isnt it time to focus on the Japanese army? The Soviet Union may not be to your liking, but they are our allies, and they promised to return Manchuria to us.

Chiang Kai-shek trembled with rage as he glared at the American general, Stilwell. Stilwell was not fond of the communists either, but he seemed uneasy, as if following the orders from above.

The founding of the Manchurian Communist Party was done quietly, almost secretly, but the Chiang government, which considered that land to be the rightful territory of the Republic of China, was furious.

But what if they attacked the communist army, which was under the Soviet command, directly? 

That would only give the Soviet Union an excuse to swallow that land. As much as he hated that bastard Stilwell, his words were right for now.

Hmm Fine. I will order to advance as soon as possible.

Good. I agree with you on that point.

The Japanese army was now in a weak state, as their homeland was engulfed in flames, and their elite forces were annihilated in the Pacific and the Chinese mainland.

They had to bypass and encircle the major strongholds they were defending, and advance as quickly as possible.

Only the land that the National Revolutionary Army stepped on could be the territory of the Republic of China. 

The communists would try to delay the time and incite the peasants to build their own liberated areas, but they would not dare to cause trouble in front of the three million guns and swords of the National Revolutionary Army.

Of course, the Chinese mainland was so vast that even three million troops could not cover it all.

We will ignore the inland communists in the coastal, Wuhan, and Kaifeng areas For now, we want to recapture the major ports in Nanjing, Beijing, Shandong, and so on, and receive aid from the United States.

Stilwell nodded. Anyone with common sense would know that it would be troublesome if the Soviet Union devoured all of Asia.

In the west, General Yan Xishans 19th Army will subdue the communists stationed on the coast. As we advance, we will recruit new troops from the newly liberated areas and form new armies. I hope the United States will help us arm them.

I will report that to the higher-ups.

Chiang Kai-shek missed the German military advisers terribly. They may not have been able to provide the massive supplies like the United States, but they were courteous and competent.

Generals like Hans von Seeckt and Alexander von Falkenhausen trained the elite divisions of the National Revolutionary Army, but everything went wrong because of that Hitler, who allied with Japan and started a war.

Blasoff

Blasoff was also a polite person. Unlike that damn Stilwell.

The divisions trained in the Soviet style were also worthy of being the elite of the National Revolutionary Army. 

Of course, they could not match the actual Soviet style of overwhelming artillery support and heavy tank units, which was unpleasant for the National Revolutionary Army.

But somehow, he felt that the Soviet Union was peering into the Nationalist government through him.

The communists were everywhere, and the operations to subdue them all failed because they ran away first.

It was a plausible guess that the Soviet Union, and Blasoff, were connected to the communist bastards behind the scenes. His arm, which was holding the armrest, trembled.

They all had to be purged. 

The Soviet Union, the traitors who sided with the communists, the warlords who disobeyed the orders from above, and the parasitic communists who were deeply rooted.

Give the order to attack! Lets crush the Japanese bastards!

Yes! Mr. President!

But first, Japan. One by one, one by one

***

We have captured Qiqihar and Harbin. We are also collecting the data from that facility as Comrade Secretary ordered.

We are deploying engineers to explore the oil fields in the northwest of Harbin We are sure that there are oil fields, but we need more time to determine the exact depth and location of the oil layers.

Take your time. Take your time.

The Soviet army was quickly taking over the vast Manchuria.

The Kwantung Army, which had a pathetic level of strength, was torn apart in an instant. The land they had occupied was now fully taken by our Soviet army.

Manchuria had a lot of things indeed

First, there was the Daqing oil field. It was the largest oil field in China, and it had an estimated reserve of 16 billion barrels.

This alone could provide enough funds for the industrialization of the Manchurian region. 

We could also sell it cheaply to the new republics like Mongolia, Manchuria, and Korea, and make them our allies in the Far East.

The gas fields in Siberia were still far from being developed. 

We needed time until the engineers who studied in the United States came back and learned about high-pressure pipes and fluid dynamics, and laid gas pipelines across Siberia.

It was too costly to bring oil from Baku in the Caspian Sea, so we wanted to take over the Daqing oil field first.

Since there are so many mineral resources in Manchuria, why dont you explore them too

And the modern semiconductor no, the rare earth elements that would be the core of the future semiconductor technology were also buried in large quantities. 

We could probably find some in the Soviet Union, but if it caused environmental destruction and pollution, wouldnt it be better to outsource it?

Other resources, such as coal, steel, and so on, were also buried massively in the Soviet Union, so lets leave them aside.

Ah! And how is the propaganda in the United States going?

As expected. The Americans are shocked by the additional data that was released.

Of course, there was some manipulation involved.

Unit 731 and the German biological and chemical research institute conducted human experiments on countless people. We could not identify all of their identities.

But the experiments on white prisoners conducted by Unit 731 were uniformly annotated as presumed to be experiments on American or British prisoners.

The West still regarded the yellow and black people as inferior, or even worse, as something less than human. 

So they just treated all the experiments conducted by Unit 731 as data, and gave them a pardon and took them for themselves.

If the American prisoners had suffered that, they would have washed the entire Japanese archipelago with nuclear weapons and still had some left, but they just passed by without much emotion, as it was the Chinese and Koreans who suffered.

Good. Good. Just write that they are presumed to be American prisoners. Anyone can make a guess.

This was Berias specialty, but somehow his empty seat felt big.

If only he had less ambition and knew how to hide his greed better. He hastened his own demise by adding the historical fact that he changed his attitude right after Stalins death.

Nevertheless, the operation in the United States was going smoothly.

As the new head of the NKVD, Kruglov was busy manipulating FBI director Edgar Hoover, using the strings that Beria had left behind.

But Comrade Secretary, why are you letting that kid go? Why are you letting him stir up anti-communist sentiment in America?

Ah? Its simple. Why stop him when hes smearing the faces of the anti-communists?

Molotov asked me cautiously.

Hoover had dirt on many politicians in America. 

He had used the information he had dug up on their weaknesses and private lives to prevent them from threatening his power. He had done this to everyone from President FDR to the major senators and representatives, and the governors of each state.

When this kid McCarthy suddenly rose as a patriotic hero who stood against the Soviet threat, Hoover had investigated his background.

Is that so?

Of course! We can destroy him anytime. Wouldnt it be more advantageous to topple him when he reaches the peak of his power and rallies the anti-communists behind him?

We had already found many weaknesses of McCarthy. Not only Hoover, but our spies had also snooped on him.

Alcohol addiction, money he took from here and there And his list is a lie, isnt it?

But the Republican Party still reached out to him, hoping to end the long-term rule of the Democrats.

What if McCarthy became the real center of the anti-communist forces? We could just blow him up and ruin him. Whats there to worry about when we cant even catch the real spies?

I see. Then When will you appoint the new ambassador to the US?

Oh! Right, there was that issue. Our strategic weapon!

The Politburo members laughed quietly. After deciding to replace the ambassador to the US in preparation for the new era of diplomacy, the old Bolsheviks who remembered the old revolutionary days chuckled.

During the First World War, the German Empire sent a strategic weapon on a sealed train to shake the Russian Empire and end the Eastern Front. The name of that strategic weapon was Lenin.

He actually ended the Russian Empire with a revolution and brought peace to the Eastern Front.

Our strategic weapon also had a similar purpose. Although it was more peaceful and more conforming to the system.

How is Kollontai, the woma I mean, sister?

Yes! She is still well. She seemed quite surprised to hear the news that she was appointed as the ambassador to the US

Alexandra Kollontai. She was one of the few old Bolsheviks who survived my purge, and a famous feminist who was ahead of her time. She was the new ambassador to the US. She had traveled the world as a diplomat since early on, and had also attended the League of Nations as the Soviet representative. She had enough credentials.

Good, good. I dont know how many more years she will work, but anyway, she is someone we need as the new ambassador to the US.

In this world, the word Cold War would hardly exist.

The confrontation with the US would ruin the Soviet Union. I didnt want to do the stupid thing of investing in the military to protect the homeland, when our economy was already weak compared to the US.

To prevent that, we had already made the USs major allies our side, planted the best informant (Hoover) in the US, and now one more thing. We sent a symbolic figure who could make half of the Americans our side.

The US had granted womens suffrage after the First World War, but there were still many conservative and discriminatory aspects in society. Womens social advancement was restricted.

But what about the friendly country Soviet Union? Women were revolutionaries, ambassadors, and high-ranking politicians! We realized that this was a sure way to make half of the Americans, that is, women, our side.

If half of the voters were friendly to the Soviet Union, could they really be hostile to us?

Hahaha! Now lets deal with Japan!
