Romanian Eagle

Chapter 646: Spanish Gold (1)

When the three countries of Germany, Italy, and Romania are obviously providing a lot of support to the National Army, the Republican government, which is its opponent, naturally needs to find help. Although the Soviet Union had given a batch of aid before, it was basically exhausted in the civil war.

Unlike the original time and space, due to the rise of Romania, the external environment of the Soviet Union has become worse, so it is more eager for the needs of allies. At present, the Spanish Republican government is the only country in Europe that has helped the Soviet Union.

Therefore, although Stalin no longer pursues his own revolution, he is also very urgent for a country that can share his pressure. So after the outbreak of the Civil War, the Soviet Union secretly assisted Spain. A batch of 40 million rubles worth of arms was shipped from Leningrad to Valencia under the control of the Republican government one week after the outbreak of the Civil War.

In addition, the Soviet Union also dispatched a military advisory group of more than 3,000 people. It is mainly composed of technical officers such as air force, armor, artillery, etc., in order to strengthen the strength of the Spanish Republican government.

However, with the arrival of the stalemate stage, the materials and resources of the three countries of Germany, Italy and Romania continued to flow into the National Army. The republican government immediately felt the pressure. For this reason, they could only place hope on the Soviet Union. For this reason, a heavyweight official of the Republican government went to the Soviet Union in person, intending to ask Comrade Steel for help.

Dolores Ibaluli, one of the founders of the Spanish Communist Party who was received by Lenin, is the representative responsible for seeking assistance from the Soviet Union this time.

As the helm of the Soviet Union, Stalin was no stranger to Ibalulli, the female leader of the Spanish Communist Party. Because she attended the thirteenth enlarged meeting of the Communist International Executive Committee in 1932 and spoke at the meeting.

"Dear Comrade Stalin, with the support of the evil forces of the three countries of Germany, Italy and Romania, the strength of the rebels has increased dramatically. Although the children of the Communist Party in Spain are not afraid of sacrifice, the flames of the revolution are facing the consequences of being extinguished by imperialism, so we hope Get assistance from the Soviet Union."

Seeing the cry of Ibaluli in front of him, Stalin calmed the opponent. "Don't worry, Comrade Ibaruli. The Soviet Union must not allow Spain to be invaded by *** and imperialism. We will send more soldiers loyal to the revolution to help Spain.

However, the Soviet Union is now undergoing economic construction, and there is still a certain gap in the national strength of the Soviet Union compared with the three countries of Deloitte, and the assistance it can provide is far from comparable. But as a big brother, the Soviet Union will do its best to help you. Of course, if you have other methods, you can also try. "

In fact, before Stalin and Ibalulli met, the issue of aid to Spain was discussed within the Soviet Union. Among them, there are mainly two opinions. One is to increase assistance to protect the Spanish Republican government. The other is that Spain can be assisted appropriately, but the Soviet Union itself needs to be given priority.

These two attitudes are also a manifestation of the Soviet Union's hesitation towards Spain. Because after the outbreak of the civil war, the rebels had the three Droghes for their apparent support, and their combined strength was completely higher than that of the Soviet Union. Not to mention the partiality of the United States, Britain and France. These three countries remain neutral on the surface, but they are still secretly leaning toward the rebels. Otherwise, how did the Three Kingdoms of Deloitte change the support of the rebels so openly?

On the other hand, as the big brother of communism, if the Soviet Union does not give support to the Spanish Republican government that favors itself, then this will cause huge prestige damage to the Soviet Union in the world, and this damage is also unwilling to see the Soviet Union . After all, many working classes now regard the Soviet Union as the existence of the second motherland, and it is they who contain the hostility of governments to the Soviet Union.

After all, the Soviet Union, which is still in a heterogeneous state, must survive in this world. In addition to its own national strength, it also needs other help. The working class of all countries is the best target for the Soviet Union.

So in the face of this situation, the Soviet Union is really not good at expressing its position.

The result of previous discussions by the Soviet Union was that the assistance to Spain must go down, but it was mainly supplemented by personnel as the main equipment, and Spain needed to buy weapons on its own.

Yes, the Soviet Union intends to make up for it before bleeding. Although the Spanish Empire is long gone, there are still three thousand nails in the broken ship, and there are still some in the Spanish family. In particular, the Republican government currently controls more than 500 tons of gold in the Spanish treasury, which can at least reduce Soviet spending.

Therefore, when facing Ms. Ibaruli, Stalin would say such a thing.

As for Ms. Ibaluli, whose political ability is still young, she is definitely not Stalin's opponent, and the rhythm of the conversation was quickly mastered by Stalin.

"For the help of the Soviet government, the Spanish people will remember this kind of grace. We can buy weapons and equipment."

Hearing what Ms. Ibaluli said, Stalin also let go of his heart. Because this is best to say from the Spanish Republican government, if the Soviet Union makes it, it may be said to be a threat.

"Then I will ask the people below to discuss with your country what equipment they need to buy."

After getting the desired result, Stalin called government officials to discuss the purchase of weapons with Ms. Ibaluli.

The next talks went smoothly for both parties, because this time the Soviet Union opened up supply of its own ordnance to Spain. As long as the Soviet Union is willing to provide it to Spain, it includes many new weapons that have just been finalized.

This is also the Soviet Union’s attitude to show the world ~www.readwn.com~ The Soviet Union has always been generous to its friends.

And these dazzling arrays of weapons and equipment made the Republican government bewildered. In the end, the Republican government chose guns, artillery and other equipment capable of equipping 150,000 people. The main reason for this situation is that there are too many recruits in the Republican government. After the military launched a rebellion, the Republican government has been short of enough officers and soldiers. Although the working class joins the army enthusiastically, training these people requires a lot of weapons, equipment and ammunition.

In addition to the Deloitte Air Force, which is torturing the Spanish people, the Republican government has also purchased many aircraft and anti-aircraft weapons.

Of course, in addition to these, there are military supplies such as raincoats, tents, telephone lines, rain boots, etc., which are fully equipped with more than a dozen ships.

Facing the urgent domestic demand in Spain, Stalin decided to release these materials first, and then wait for the gold to be shipped out. Faced with Stalin's sympathy for the republican government, Ms. Ibaluli and the republican government were grateful.

So after achieving a satisfactory result, the Spanish Republican government began to prepare for the future transportation of gold.
