STALIN, Moscow
July 28 1941
The Nazis are obliterating us. Army Group North is poised to make it's final drive into Leningrad. Army Group Centre has taken Smolensk, Army Group South is in Kiev.
All is not looking good at all for our people. What the hell does Zhukov thinks he's playing at, giving up Kiev is certainly out of the question! He will no longer be the Chief of General Staff. Shaposhnikov shall replace him. We have managed without Lenin and we can all the better manage without Zhukov! This is no time to lose another foothold in this war.
According to Zhukov, either I lose Kiev or I lose Moscow in the end. We can't lose Moscow. I won't be the one who loses the Soviet Union to a bunch of Nazi barbarians. I'll see what Zhukov has to offer. If he wants a counteroffensive at Yelnya, he shall be in charge of it as Chief of The Reserve Front. We have to stop this losing! Time to get him back into my office.
