    In the early hours of the morning, the rapid ringing of the phone broke the silence of the Kremlin. Comrade Stalin, wrapped in his pajamas, picked up the phone, his face slowly turning gloomy.  (144 books! None in the hospital., pop-up window

    Kabul is lost!

    The news was so unexpected, it could be said that there was no warning.  This made him vaguely regret the purge of the intelligence department. You must know that the defection of Ivan Mir and Kuibyshev allowed him to conduct an unprecedented purge of the intelligence department and the surrounding secret police and internal affairs forces. This extended to his dissatisfaction with various departments.  Believe it or not, the number of people related to intelligence that he signed to be executed alone is as high as 150,000!  Because of this, the intelligence network that had been cultivated for more than ten years was completely paralyzed. After Yezhov came to power, he became obsessed with power and did not work as down-to-earth as Ivan Mir. As a result, he now seems to have cataracts and can only see the outside world.  The light of the world cannot be seen clearly.

    But even if there is only light, he also knows the importance of Afghanistan.  If Kabul is lost now, what will happen next?  Kunduz, Kandahar and crucially Herat!  In order to control Afghanistan, he once ordered the widening of the highways from Herat to Kunduz and Kabul. Now these roads can be passed by trucks, making it easier for the Soviet army to move, but he did not expect that Kabul was lost!  If the Chinese [***] team intervenes, they can use these roads to quickly move south to Iran and open up the China-Persian Gulf land channel!  Thinking about the heat between China and Germany during this period, even a person like him feels a chill down his spine.  Assuming that there really is a secret deal between China and Germany, could this be a precursor?

    This assumption really made him break out in a cold sweat!  Losing Afghanistan is equivalent to losing the strategic node going south. For Moscow, which has always wanted to push gc international to the world and launch a world revolutionary movement, it is a far heavier blow than the failure of Spain!  If Iran is lost again because of this, everything from the Caucasus to the Caspian Sea will be surrounded!  In addition, T¨¹rkiye is supported by Britain and France, and Italy and Germany are deliberately conniving.  The Great Hero of 1911740

    A chilling picture slowly emerged from his mind.

    "Based on the information currently available, it is believed that the Chinese aviation force was involved in the military operation in Kabul and provided air transportation for the northern rebels, and 40 bombers and about 80 combat aircraft provided air cover. Due to the sudden incident, Oman  Noura has been arrested, and the Afghan army is facing a situation of fragmentation. Although our pilots deployed in Kunduz, Kabul and other places tried their best to resist, many comrades still died."

    Three hours later, at the Kremlin¡¯s Politburo military meeting, Marshal Voroshilov, Chief of the Soviet General Staff, introduced the situation in Kabul to the members.  But he did not dare to say that his plane was lost at the airport without even reacting to take off. He could only glorify it as saying that the enemy attacked suddenly and there was no time to react. The heroic Soviet pilots did their best to shed blood in the sky.

    The sight of only a few people including Kalinin and Motolov left in the empty conference room made the participants feel chilly even as they were worried about the situation in Afghanistan.  However, Stalin ignored this "emptiness" and would not admit that he had done something wrong even if he secretly regretted it.  Kalinin was one of the few people who did not have to worry about being purged. Looking at the distance of more than a hundred kilometers in depth on the map, he asked in a deep voice: "Comrade Marshal Voroshilov, how did the rebels enter Kabul?"

    Everyone wants to know this question: Did someone neglect their duties or deliberately surrender to the enemy?  Otherwise, how could there not be even a little warning at a depth of more than 100 kilometers?  Even if a plane flies over, the sound of noisy engines will definitely alert the garrison.  Voroshilov's back was covered with sweat and he whispered: "Comrade Chairman, the enemy first took control of the airport and then sent more troops to Kabul by plane."

    "Dereliction of duty! This is a serious dereliction of duty! Comrade Yezhov, didn't you get a little information before? Are our aviation and army asleep?" Motolov was very dissatisfied with this explanation.

    Yezhov, who finally had the opportunity to attend the Politburo meeting, was sweating with cold sweat on his forehead. He hated Motolov so much that he secretly wondered if he could find a chance to get some evidence to "cleanse" him too.  Stalin was also very angry. The intelligence department did not respond at all to such an important matter, which shows how corrupt it has become!  You have to know how the assembly of so many aircraft and the mobilization of such a large force would reveal some flaws.  But he didn't want to discuss this now. The flame of his pipe flickered and he spoke very slowly: "Comrade Yezhov's issue will be discussed later. The important thing now is Afghanistan! China's sending troops to help the Afghan rebels is a premeditated military action.  ! Just like what Germany and Italy did in Spain, it is a crime against our gcist revolutionaries! It is a crime that kills the great Soviet. Afghanistan is the birthplace of the vast proletarian revolution in Central Asia, and now it faces loss,  It will put the cause of gcism in Central Asia, India, Arabia and other places under serious threat! So the question now is, what should we do, how should we break the blockade and stranglehold?"

    "One sentence was tantamount to pronouncing Ye Ruofu's death sentence, and the latter's face turned pale with fright.Bai was shaking all over and couldn't even speak.  The people next to me were secretly happy!  "The death of this evil dog has finally arrived!" If he were not talking about a major event related to the survival of Soviet Central Asia, I am afraid that some people would have applauded and celebrated.  But the next two inquiries also made everyone a little stunned, because since Tronotsky was expelled, Stalin rarely asked for opinions from below.  Now that Afghanistan is asking for everyone's opinions, this shows that the situation has indeed reached a very serious level.

    "General Secretary, my opinion is that there must be no compromise!" The speaker was Shaposhnikov. He is one of the only three generals left after the army suppressed the rebellion, and he is also an officer who has the ability to be promoted to marshal.  He continued: "Afghanistan is different from Spain. It is not only related to the revolutionary cause, but also related to the security of our country in Central Asia! The Arabs, Iranians and China are in cahoots. If we lose Afghanistan, they will inevitably fall to China and Britain.  The country, even the Caucasus will be threatened by then. So my opinion is to immediately send additional troops to Afghanistan to nip the rebels in the bud."

    "But Amanullah has been arrested. If we continue to send troops, will China also send out its army?" Kalinin looked cautious.

    Indeed, Amanullah¡¯s arrest left Moscow very passive. Stalin¡¯s original intention was not to start a war with China or even the world¡¯s imperialists now, because the Second Five-Year Plan was progressing slowly and the Soviet Union was not fully prepared, otherwise he would not have  Then it was tied up in supporting the Spanish National Army.  His original intention was to support Amanula as a puppet and hide behind the scenes to control him, but that doesn't work now.

    The conference room suddenly became quiet, and everyone knew that if troops were sent, there would inevitably be a full-scale confrontation between China and the Soviet Union.  It is undoubtedly a foolish dream to imagine that the 4,000-kilometer-long front is impregnable. Once a full-scale war breaks out, it will inevitably be a battle for Asian hegemony!  Even Stalin did not dare to make a decision easily. He pondered for a long time before speaking: "Comrades! This is the most serious national security threat since the establishment of the Soviet Union. Afghanistan is related to the success or failure of the revolutionary cause and the security of Central Asia, so imperialism must be defeated."  conspiracy!"

    As soon as these words came out, everyone understood that Stalin already wanted to fight.  Many people wanted to stop him, but seeing Yezhov's pale face, they didn't dare to say anything.  Fortunately, Stalin was not overzealous and continued with the arrangement: "Comrade Motolov, you have to expose China's conspiracy to the world as soon as possible so that the proletariat of the country and the world can clearly see the face of imperialism." Voroshilov  Comrade, the army must be prepared for a big war! We cannot let the enemy play with us. If necessary, we can mobilize the strength of the whole country to go to the east. We must tell every Red Army commander and soldier to dare to use armed force.  Strength protects the party and the country and defends the cause of gcism. We must have the courage to sacrifice and use our blood and lives to safeguard the territorial integrity of the great Soviet and thwart the enemy's conspiracy."

    After Stalin finished deploying the work in Afghanistan, he glanced at Yezhov sitting next to him, snorted coldly in his heart, and turned to Beria: "Comrade Beria, from now on you will temporarily take over Comrade Yezhov's work.  There are a large number of reformed reactionaries in Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and other regions, so you have to take your work seriously. Their collusion will pose a serious threat to the border areas, and any negligence is a crime against the great Soviet Union."

    Ye Ruofu¡¯s pale face suddenly turned dark, and he understood that he was completely doomed this time!

    ??.When the Kremlin hurriedly deployed counterattacks, the situation in Afghanistan deteriorated sharply for them!

    On October 28, the third day after Kabul changed hands, the Soviet and puppet troops returning from places such as the Hindu Kush and Kunduz were defeated one after another. At the same time, the number of takeoffs and landings at Kabul Airport exceeded 1,377.  A total of 1,102 tons of supplies and 30,000 soldiers were sent here.

    On the 29th, Amanullah announced his surrender and abdicated in Kabul. Nader Shah announced his successor as the new Afghan king and promised the world that after the Afghan regime stabilizes, he will implement a constitutional monarchy and hand over the country to the tribes and people for joint management.  At the same time, he also announced an amnesty, and any opposition and soldiers who are willing to lay down their arms will not be held accountable.  Finally, he announced that he would visit Yanjing immediately to seek help from China and even friendly countries around the world for the next step of restoring the country's economy and stability.

    As soon as the news came out, everyone was shocked!  Tens of thousands of troops loyal to Amanullah defected one after another. The northern defense line that had been standing for nine years collapsed overnight. The Soviet army retreated to Kunduz, Termez, Kandahar and Herat.  The Afghan coalition forces under the personal command of Mei Sheng, led by Fei Wenhua, Park Eun-sung and others, advanced with great success. In less than 24 hours, they broke through the Baghlan defense line and recaptured the Hindu Kush mountain defense line, known as Kabul's barrier.  The Great Hero of 1911740

    By November 5, except for the four areas where the Soviet troops were stationed, all the remaining areas were liberated, and various tribes and local governments also swore allegiance to the new king.

    War in Afghanistan!  Kabul changes hands!  The mysterious army attacked the Soviet army, and Nadir Shah swore to regain the throne!
