Khrushchev controlled the top leaders of the army and could control the entire army. Under the current circumstances, he would clearly explain the threat from Stalingrad. If he did not surrender, everyone would turn into barbecue together, and then surrender would be easy.

In the army, as long as no one takes the lead in making trouble, the soldiers below will follow the orders of superiors.

This is also an important way for military rebellion, and the army commander takes the lead.

Soldiers take obeying orders as their duty, so military rebellion mainly involves superiors taking the lead. When superiors are given the orders, subordinate soldiers must obey.

They didn't even know that they were rebelling, and they went there with a great sense of mission and honor. However, when their hands were covered with blood from their own people, they could no longer turn back and could only go all the way to the dark.

Now, Khrushchev is going to surrender with his army. As long as the senior commander of the army does not jump out to object, the resistance below will be much smaller.

Unfortunately, Khrushchev didn't know that he had made a serious mistake.

He forgot that in Stalingrad, there was another important place, the Stalingrad Tractor Factory.

Stalingrad Tractor Factory, also known as Derzhinsky Tractor Factory, is to commemorate the predecessor of the former Soviet Union's "KGB": Felix Edmundovitch Derzhinsky, the historian of the All-Russian Anti-Counterfeiting Committee.

This is a tractor factory built in the 1930s. All production equipment is manufactured in the United States, with about 80 American companies involved in the manufacturing. After completion, the equipment was dismantled and transported back to China and assembled by Americans and Germans.

Therefore, the technology here is also very advanced, and the time was just right. In the 1930s, it was the time of the Western economic crisis. As long as there were orders, even if it was the orders of the Soviets, American businessmen would enjoy it.

After the Stalingrad Tractor Factory was put into production, it immediately became the largest tractor factory in the Soviet Union at that time, and the tractors produced each year accounted for more than half of the national output.

Tractors of this era are all crawler-type, and the manufacturing technology of tractors and tanks is almost interoperable.

Therefore, it is natural to use a tractor factory to make tanks, which is the same as using a pesticide factory to produce chemical weapons.

When the war began, the Stalingrad Tractor Factory quickly transformed and began to produce tanks. At the same time, the main force they produced was the T-34 tank. This tank with a simple structure was once set as the main equipment of the Red Army, and the output required was very large.

In the Battle of Stalingrad in history, the tractor factory was also famous. When workers were hit by German air strikes and cannons at any time, they continued to maintain production in the factory. Even after the Germans approached, the workers drove tanks directly from the production line, walked onto the battlefield, and bombarded the German troops with their own cannons.

It can be said that the workers of the Stalingrad Tractor Factory can both produce and fight. After almost all the factories were blown up, they also insisted on production and fighting, composing a fighting music.

The current Stalingrad Tractor Factory also has the same fighting enthusiasm.

They sweated heavily in the factory and continued to produce tanks for the army. Although due to lack of fuel, some of the tanks stayed in the parking lot of the factory after they got off the production line and could not be started. They were still working overtime.

The fuel problem will be solved, but it really doesn't work. It's okay to push the tank to the street and use it as a fixed turret.

All of this is inseparable from the efforts of the tractor manager, Mikhailov Ivanov.

After the Stalingrad tractor factory was established, Mikhailov came here and became the factory director. He had been responsible for the production here and made contributions to the Soviets. However, when the terrible storm arrived, Mikhailov was also implicated and arrested.

Until the beginning of the war, Mikhailov finally returned to the tractor factory and was responsible for the production here again.

Although he was implicated by the great purge, Mikhailov still loved his motherland in his heart, and was full of anger at the invasion of the Germans. The great Soviets would not be defeated by the Germans!

He only slept for a few hours a day and organized production in the factory. When the workers were idle, he also organized the workers to conduct shooting training, always preparing to contribute his life to the Soviets.

The Great Purge was wrong. It was all the internal affairs of the Soviet Union. However, the German invasion was the enemy of the entire Soviet Union. This is Mikhailov's view.

Although he could not walk to the battlefield with a gun, the weapons produced by his factory were constantly supplying the front line. Now, when the Turks came, he was even more motivated.

But today, he suddenly lost his energy.

It can even be said that the entire Stalingrad has lost its vitality.

"Today, with a deep feeling, I will introduce the situation of the battle to you." A dull voice came from the speakers on the street: "I am the political commissar Khrushchev, and I was ordered by Comrade Stalin to take charge of Stalingrad's defense."

"The Germans have broken the bottom line of war. They have begun to use inhuman weapons on a large scale. Wherever there is resistance, they will be bombed into flat ground. Just like Petersburg, the Germans tried to smooth out all the cities of our Soviets from the earth."

"It's no point to continue fighting. We don't have planes, we don't have enough anti-aircraft guns. When the German bombers arrive, it's when the whole Stalingrad disappears."

"So, we have no hope of continuing to fight. Our Ural industrial zone disappeared and our Moscow disappeared. The next goal of the Germans is to us. In order to make hundreds of thousands of innocent people in the city live, and to allow the Russian nation and other nations to survive together, I and the commanders of the entire Stalingrad defense zone decided that we would put down our weapons and retain hundreds of thousands of lives. This is a bitter fruit, but we have no choice."

"If it is an ordinary soldier, it can be said that he will contribute his life without any complaints. However, so many civilians, including elderly people, women, and children, let them disappear together. This is not bravery, this is recklessness, and a crime. Even if I stand on the pillar of shame in history, I have to make such a choice."
