#128. A person who is sincere towards the Soviet Union

April 7, 1949.

An underground bunker at the Yongson Ministry of National Defense building in Seoul, South Korea.

“Currently, the 5th Field Army has advanced to 150km east of Novosibirsk.”

“How many Soviet troops are in Novosibirsk?”

“There are two rifle divisions. Originally, it was a city that did not require the military to be stationed other than a small number of security forces, but it seems to have become uneasy due to the recent loss of contact with the Far East Army. “It was urgently dispatched two days ago.”

“Right. It’s a shame, I’ve been running comfortably so far.”

“Well, were you planning on taking over Siberia without encountering this much resistance?”

“Was I too conscienceless?”

“Yes, I think your conscience has run away from home?”

“… … .”

After pulverizing the Far East Army as Ko Seok-man said, the 5th Field Army moved smoothly by rail for 2,300 km from Ulan-Ude to Novosibirsk with almost no resistance.

No matter how much the area between the eastern and western parts of the Soviet Union is like a no-man’s land, it is in fact a fraud to travel safely by train for eight days in another country.

Also, the territory of the Soviet Union.

Of course, there were a small number of security forces, but there was nothing they could do.

As for wired communication, the Special Forces had already taken a helicopter and cut it off, and wireless communication was blocked by using Albatross to control radio waves.

Therefore, there was no way there would be a crazy guard who could stop the field army forces from approaching.

In short, it is not for nothing that Moscow is in danger if the Far East Army collapses.

“No matter what you say… … .”

“It’s true, right?”

“Ugh! Okay, Novosibirsk is just north of Kazakhstan. Are the kids in Kazakhstan okay?”

“It is now the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic.”

“Anyway, whatever happens, is it okay?”

“Kazakhs are also the Soviet Union. Most of them are serving in the Soviet army, so there are actually not many troops in Kazakhstan. There are only a few divisions in Xinjiang to the southeast, in the border area with the Republic of East Turkestan.”

The Republic of East Turkestan, which originally existed in history, is now completely independent with the support of the government of the Republic of Korea.

Originally, it was an impossible task, but it was because the Chinese Communist Party was forced to give up its hands in exchange for providing arms, and Burhan Shahidi, a communist, was ousted and Isa Yusuf Alptekin, a complete independenceist, took power in his place and became independent.

Of course, the Republic of Korea provided separate support, but the only conditions the government of the Republic of Korea put forward were anti-Soviet and anti-China, advocating as a liberal democratic republic with separation of church and state as the national body, and anti-communism, so they had nothing to lose. .

In any case, since it advocated anti-Soviet, anti-Chinese and anti-communist relations, it was impossible to be friendly with the Soviet Union, so a certain amount of troops were stationed on the border.

“Anyway, I think we will advance to the Urals without incident. “The 1st Field Army is following behind, right?”

“Yes, it looks like the 4th Far Eastern Front will be joining us sooner than expected because they are doing crazy things like we don’t know if it is Urra or Urazil. “We left Irkutsk three days ago.”

“Hmm… … . It’s going smoothly. The 2nd and 3rd Field Armies will also depart soon.”

“That’s right. Stalin will probably faint when he sees our field army arriving in the Urals.”

“Let alone fainting, can that butcher still hold on to power? No matter how much he rules with an iron fist, I don’t think it would be difficult for him to stay safe once he has completely destroyed the Far East army.”

“There will definitely be some moving around. “Some people need to move.”

“I’m worried that he needs to be nice to me. “It’s not something Director Cho usually puts in much effort into.”

“You will do well. “He was a man who deceived Stalin and gained his favor.”

“That’s right. ruler! Anyway, now we have to inform our people of our victory, right? Even all over the world?”

“Hehehe! “Stalin will try to eat Zhukov.”

“Hehehe! “Either it or not.”

April 7th at 4pm.

All radio stations stopped regular broadcasting, and TV broadcasting, which was still before broadcast time, began broadcasting in an unusual manner.

And soon, when the president announced that he would hold an emergency press conference on the war with the Soviet Union, numerous citizens hurriedly gathered in front of the radio and televisions installed in various places, including train stations.

After the war broke out, the government did not provide detailed information about the situation.

This is because it was obvious that if the story was reported in detail, information that should not yet be made public would be transmitted to the world by foreigners such as diplomats and businessmen who entered the country.

Even embassy personnel from the enemy country, the Soviet Union, were barred from going outside and remained in the embassy or lodgings.

* * *

Therefore, reporting on the war situation was strictly controlled, and only fragmentary statements such as ‘Our Armed Forces are fighting very bravely and well against the invasion of the Soviet Army!’ Since only a limited amount of information was reported, the public was thirsty for information about the situation of the war.

In the midst of this, President Lee Kang-cheol is holding a press conference himself, so you and I can’t help but focus our eyes and ears in a state of half anticipation and half anxiety.

Eventually, at 4:30 p.m., Lee Kang-cheol, wearing a combat uniform with the rank of Marshal of the Armed Forces, appeared on the screen.

“Dear citizens! “We are very sorry that we were unable to provide detailed information on the situation after the Soviet Union invaded us due to security issues.”

After Lee Kang-cheol apologized, he opened his mouth again while staring straight ahead.

“Fellow citizens! Now that all security issues have been resolved, I will tell you the detailed situation. Our brave Armed Forces! We achieved a great victory after a fierce battle against the wicked Soviet army that had invaded our territory by surprise! Currently, we are pursuing the Communist Soviet Army, which has suffered a crushing defeat and is fleeing! “I am happy to inform you that at this very moment there is not a single Soviet soldier on our territory!”

“Wow wow wow!!”

“I won!”

“It’s a great victory!”

“Korea horray! Long live!”

“Long live Korean independence!!”

In no time, the entire nation became enthusiastic.

But Lee Kang-cheol is not finished speaking yet.

And even in the midst of this, there were people who calmly savored Lee Kang-cheol’s words.

“That’s all well and good, but if there isn’t a single Soviet soldier in our territory, where on earth are we going to chase them?”

“ok? “Is that so?”

“Have you entered Soviet territory?”

“no way… … .”

‘No way’ always catches people.

“We, the Armed Forces of the Republic of Korea! Don’t let those ruthless communist Soviet soldiers invade our territory again! I pledge to the martyred martyrs and the people that I will pursue and punish them until the end! And so our brave Armed Forces are now pursuing the enemies fleeing to Moscow, and in fierce pursuit through Siberia!”

“Wow… … ok? Chu, chase? To Siberia?”

“Mo, you’re chasing those who are running away to Moscow all the way to Siberia?”

“Isn’t this going too far?”

Most of the people who were trying to cheer suddenly became anxious.

Because I felt like it was going too far.

What kind of country is the Soviet Union?

Isn’t this a country that has been a constant among the world’s great powers since the time of Arasa?

In addition, it is a military power that defeated Germany in the end while exterminating tens of millions of its people in the war against Germany, and is the suzerain of communism.

After defeating those guys, it’s natural to chase them down, so it’s natural to feel uneasy.

However, Lee Kang-cheol also knew that the people would be anxious at this point.

“Dear citizens! Our Republic of Korea Army is strong! The Kwantung Army, which had driven out the Japanese Imperial Army and restored the Korean Peninsula, and ruled Manchuria and was called the Invincible Kwantung Army, was no match for us! And the Japanese army, which was brutally defeated by us, had defeated the Russian army in the past! Yes, that’s right. The Soviet army is strong. But our Republic of Korea Army is much stronger than the Soviet Army!”

“… … .”

“But you’re still not trustworthy? Let me tell you one thing. Our Armed Forces! More than 1 million soldiers of the Soviet Union’s Far Eastern Front have already been killed! Watch this video! “We apologize in advance to radio listeners.”

The television screen showed a mountain of Soviet corpses piled up and Soviet prisoners of war sorting them out.

Of course, sensitive or overly cruel scenes are mosaicized.

“Wow! Three, oh my! “Are those all Soviet soldier corpses?”

“Really! Really! “Our armed forces captured and killed a ton of Soviet soldiers!”

“hurray! Long live!”

“Long live the Armed Forces!”

The atmosphere reversed and Korea fell into a crucible of enthusiasm again.

“Dear citizens! Our military will use this opportunity to severely punish the Soviet Union to prevent it from provoking it again! “Our army is on its way to Moscow now!”

“Wow wow!!”

“Long live President Lee Kang-cheol! Long live the Armed Forces!”

“We are going to Moscow now!”

Extras were distributed, and as the TV continued to play the government-edited video, people who had only listened to it on the radio went to the location where the TV was installed and watched the video.

And I was sure.

Our Republic of Korea Armed Forces are strong!

The whole country was in an uproar.

Not only the Korean Peninsula, but also Manchuria, Hokkaido, and Yugu Island (Okinawa).

And through foreign reporters dispatched to Korea, the great victory of the Korean army and its advance toward Moscow were relayed one after another to the whole world. Diplomats in Korea were also upset.

Especially this guy.

“Hahaha!”

“… … .”

The person who was sincere about the Soviet Union was Winston Churchill.

As soon as I saw the broadcast, I ran to it at once.

“Haha! Well done! good job! The end is not far off for that damn Stalin! Come on, you can’t miss whiskey on a day like this!”

Churchill has been in and out of Lee Kang-cheol’s office so many times that he now feels as comfortable as if it were his own home.

He even takes out his own whiskey and drinks it.

“Kya! good night!”

“Is it that good?”

“then! Good or bad!”

“I really… … .”

Lee Kang-cheol was dumbfounded and shook his head.

“More than that, tell me honestly.”

“What?”

“You didn’t peel it all, right?”

“Why not wear everything?”

“I mean broadcasting, broadcasting. From what I looked at, it didn’t seem like everything was covered.”

“Hey, about 70% is correct.”

“So, really?”

Churchill is needed anyway.

It has to be said with some degree of accuracy.

“Well, it was more one-sided than the broadcast announcement. “Not many of them ran away.”

“Oooh!”

There was no way there were people who ran away, but for a good reason, there had to be one.

“Are you really going to go to Moscow?”

“I have to go.”

“How far do you think?”

“Even east of the Urals.”

“Hoo! “From the way you respond so obediently, I guess you have something to say to me?”

“… … .”

I see Winston Churchill so often that I’m now close with him, so when I pretend to be he’s pretending.

“Would you like England to give us a shake from the west?”

“indeed! Hahaha!”

If you really pretend, it’s pretend.

“I will tell Truman separately, but the main player in this matter is England. “It’s especially great if Winston steps in.”

The world knows that Churchill and Britain are sincere toward the Soviet Union.

That’s why the UK is the right place this time.

“You know it’s not free, right?”

“Ugh! “I’ll make sure you don’t feel bad.”

“Hahaha! “Is this making you want to leave Korea more and more?”

“I understand it will last until this year?”

“That’s what I’m saying. Should I just sit down?”

“Don’t be scary, just have a drink.”

“Hahaha!”

April 8, 1949.

Moscow Kremlin.

bang!

“this guy! Zhukov! “How on earth did this happen?”

“… … .”

An ashtray flew over his head, but Zhukov had nothing to say.

Because I don’t even know what happened.
