The Rise of the Empire

"Did I hear you correctly? Your country can actually reach an agreement with the British?" Pavlov was really shocked. What is the so-called worst situation? To the north, the defense line was directly penetrated by the Bavarian Army, and the two river basins were not captured. Then the direction of the Persian Gulf was blocked by the German and Austrian fleets. It was almost besieged on all sides! And the only possible direction of evacuation is British India! But now that the relationship between Britain and the United States has deteriorated to the point of direct war, how can the Americans reach an agreement with the British at this time to allow the Russian troops to retreat when necessary? Isn't this a bit of a joke?

"Unexpectedly, during the cleanup, there is no absolute hostility or friendship between countries. During the war, the two sides had not been in contact. What's more, we and the British have one thing in common, that is, we believe Russia is our common friend in the future and our staunch ally against Germany and Austria!" Johnson did not tell the details of the relevant plan, but only told Pavlov the results. Make him feel more at ease.

As for the reason? It's very simple. So far, the Americans have not told the British about this matter. All this is just Roosevelt's idea... But it still works, at least the Russians feel at ease! As for whether it can be fulfilled in the end? decide as things go! Sometimes, lies are also a kind of energizer and a kind of power!

"Thank you very much for your help to us." Pavlov said. "Then the weapons and ammunition we need should be delivered on time before the final start of the war, right?"

"Of course there is no problem." Johnson said. He didn't understand what Pavlov meant by this. After all, the Americans have done a very good job in terms of material and financial commitments. At least they have never made a mistake so far. .

"If possible, I hope your country will provide more cars and accessories. You know, the road conditions in Persia are very bad. The failure rate and lifespan of vehicles are both problematic. On the other hand, we are engaged in offensive operations and need a large number of vehicles provide logistical support, and Persian railways are not trustworthy," Pavlov said.

"Are you kidding? The vehicle transportation capacity standards we provide to your country have far exceeded the transportation capacity of your country's troops of the same size during the war. Now, the transportation capacity of one division of your country is three times that of your country before the war! Isn’t it enough?” Johnson said dissatisfied.

Although the United States can now be called a country on wheels, although the United States' automobile production far exceeds that of Germany, which ranks second. But large trucks and tractors were still in demand during wartime, especially now as we prepared for a massive land war on the island of New Guinea. At this time, the Russians already have a large number of vehicles and have not started driving yet, so they want more new cars. This request makes the Americans feel very unhappy!

"We have relevant information about scrapped vehicles. Your country can check it." Pavlov said with some guilt. To be honest, although the scale of vehicles provided by the Americans to the Russian troops is definitely not comparable to that of the same level of US military troops, the transportation capacity is definitely not lower than that of the Bavarian Army during the World War.

And considering the enemies they are dealing with, these transportation capabilities are definitely enough. Even if the Americans no longer provide additional vehicles and accessories, the inventory alone is enough for the Russians to fight according to the pre-war plan for at least one year! Theoretically, even if there are some discrepancies between the actual combat and the plan, the Russians cannot ask for additional vehicles at this time!

As for the truth, there is only one truth, and that is that the Russians used some of the vehicles provided by the Americans for their own use! After all, cars can be used both for military and civilian purposes... In the eyes of the Russians, it is obviously a waste to use so many precious vehicles in the Persian war. It is better to transport them back to the country for domestic recovery and construction. These vehicles and parts are in very short supply in Russia today. Materials. As for the frontline troops, what should we do? On the one hand, Americans give a lot and have a lot of reserves. On the other hand, the Russians don't mind "requisitioning" some livestock and vehicles directly in Persia! After all, this is not their country!

"Your request is very unreasonable. As for the reason, we all know it. I can't answer the request of you and your government. I can only report the relevant situation to the country, and then the White House and Congress will make a decision. But I hope your country will not There is too much hope in reporting this matter." Johnson's words were full of anger! In his opinion, the Persians were indeed timid, and the Russians were too greedy!

Just when the Americans and the Russians were still fighting openly and secretly over issues of interest, Reza Khan also returned to his mansion. He dismissed everyone and locked himself in the study. After a while, something came from the study. Smashing sounds and loud curses. And when the loyal servant tried to get closer, he was shouted back by his master.

"I swear, I will make the Americans and Russians pay for today's insults and slights! I swear, I will get my country out of this tragic situation. Even if I have to be with someone I don't really like. In exchange for our country!" Reza Khan roared like a lion.

"Bring me twice as much coffee, the most refreshing kind, and some food, I'm hungry." After a while, Reza Khan ordered. After the servants cleaned up, Reza Khan sat alone in the study, Start thinking about the path beyond today. Today is a turning point in his life.

"The United States and Russia are too powerful, and relying solely on the power of Persia is simply not enough to resist. And the Shah is too weak, and he is not able to shoulder his due responsibilities." Reza Khan said after taking a sip of coffee. "This country must change. We have no retreat, no compromise, and no avoidance. Since the Americans and Russians want to light a fire, let's let them die in the fire!"

"Go find Count Moritz tomorrow." Reza Khan took the first step. He knew very well that relying on Persia's own strength was absolutely impossible, so the key to the success or failure of this matter was Germany and Austria. In other words, the attitude of Bavaria and Austria is that if Germany and Austria are willing and put into action, the US-Russia plan will definitely not succeed. But the problem now is that Reza Khan is not sure what the attitude of Germany and Austria is towards this matter, because he He vaguely felt that Turkey could reach this stage because of the inaction of Germany and Austria. He even believed that Germany did not want to see an overly powerful and aggressive Turkey! Because Turkey's location is so important, directly at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and Africa. If one day Turkey becomes too powerful, then he has the ability to choose a partner!
