Peace Between Soviets and Nazis? (August 1939)

August  31 1939, Manchuko

We’ve just defeated Japan by encircling their 6th Army. Using elaborate deceptive measures, we managed to wipe the Japanese out with our artillery and air attacks. Our feud with Japan has now ceased for the time being and as Commander Stalin had apparently signed a non-aggression pact with Hitler and Ribbentrop on the 23rd of August, we have become de-facto allies with Japan and the Italy in the Axis Power Alliance. The success in Manchukuo has given me great satisfaction, I’ve managed to prove myself and gotten rid of the slanderous accusations that followed me to Japan. Being awarded the military title of ‘Hero of the Soviet Union’ proves my evident innocence. Without the success of Japan, I would have fell under the purges of Commander Stalin. Being posted to Khalkin-Gol was a blessing.

Germany seems to be dominating every aspect of European politics. According to the maps, our eastern front is safe, for now. Onto other threats, the only other major one belongs with the Western Powers. We needed an ally to galvanize and substantiate ourselves against the threat of capitalism. At least we have one threat less. We can focus on the hidden initiatives of the Western Powers. Our Eastern Front is secure for now. We need to prolong the peace between Germany and the Soviet Union. Assisting the Germans can only strengthen our position against the West, and would deflect any attention towards us. In terms of tactical geography now, we are safe and secure even if another world war breaks out again. We’re on a tactical winning streak. Hopefully it will stay that way.
