() Soon after Timoshenko left, Borisov ordered to surrender. Ukrainians did not want to fight for Stalin. They regarded the Germans as liberators. As a Ukrainian, Borisov could not disobey all Ukrainians Will, and at three o'clock in the afternoon on April 1940, 4, ordered all troops in Odessa to surrender to the German SS.

Zhang Jun held a special welcome meeting for this purpose. In addition to all the officers above the division level of the German SS, there were also all the officers above the division level of the Ukrainian Front Army. These Ukrainians who surrendered, Zhang Jun did not treat them as people at all. The captives were only temporarily handed over their weapons, and the food was enough, which was many times better than that of the Soviet Union. This made the surrendered Ukraine even more convinced that Germany was here to rescue them.

In addition, Zhang Jun also invited two SS lieutenant generals, Bliuchel and Yegorov. After careful discussion, Borisov agreed to withdraw from the Soviet Union’s political parties and swore to join the German Socialist Workers’ Party. Sworn to join the German SS.Borisov himself was appointed as a major general of the SS and started to form the First Ukrainian SS Army. The list of officers below the commander was nominated by Borisov himself and signed by Zhang Jun.This means that Zhang Jun has completely handed over control of the Ukrainian SS to Borisov, and all officers of the Ukrainian SS will also be nominated by Borisov.This made Borisov tearful at the time, thanking Zhang Jun, the commander-in-chief, for his unreserved trust.

Zhang Jun also released a "Declaration of National Equality" and a "Land Law" at the welcome meeting

"Declaration of the Equality of Nations"

Today, national equality is no longer a slogan, and we will immediately realize it in the new Soviet Union. Only under the leadership of the German Socialist Workers Party can it be endowed with real content and scientific meaning, and become the core idea of ​​the national outlook. It has become the fundamental principle for us to deal with ethnic issues.Its basic content includes the following aspects:

First, all ethnic groups, regardless of their size, are equal.From a national perspective, all ethnic groups in the country are required to be equal; from a global perspective, all ethnic groups in the world are completely equal.Although nationalities are big and small, some are advanced and some are backward, they must not be used to distinguish good from bad and noble from others.Large and small nationalities, advanced and backward nationalities should all be equal in terms of rights and status.

Second, the complete equality of all nationalities in all rights.That is to say, all ethnic groups are not only equal in law and in the fields of national political life, but also in all fields of social life such as economy, culture, education, language, customs, religious beliefs, etc.To realize the equality of rights of all ethnic groups, on the one hand, it is necessary to prohibit any ethnic group from enjoying any privileges; on the other hand, it is necessary to protect the equal rights and interests of ethnic minorities and prohibit any oppression and discrimination against ethnic minorities.We demand absolute equality of all ethnic groups in the country, and unconditionally protect the rights of all ethnic minorities, and "absolutely do not allow a single ethnic group to enjoy any privileges."

Third, help all ethnic groups realize their equal rights, and give special consideration to the interests and equal rights of weak and small ethnic groups.Not only must we abide by the Constitution and the legal equality of ethnic groups, but we must also take measures and do our best to help relatively backward ethnic groups realize equal rights.Sincerely, selflessly and for a long time, help the originally oppressed nations to develop their economy and culture, help them catch up with the development level of advanced nations, eliminate the development gap between nations caused by historical and other reasons, and realize the common progress and prosperity of all nations.

Fourth, all ethnic groups must fulfill corresponding obligations.Duty without right and right without duty do not exist, they are one.While fully exercising equal rights, all ethnic groups must also undertake the obligation to maintain ethnic equality, ethnic unity and national unity. "

"Land Reform Law

The vast majority of people in Ukraine have completely accepted the German policy from the bottom of their hearts, and began to take the initiative to lead the way for the EU army to arrest the chairman of the collective farm, and then happily divided the land and elections.

Of course, Zhang Jun commanded the SS field troops to attack quickly, and the EU troops swept up the Soviet Union in Ukraine. These EU troops did not have to worry about the appearance of large Soviet troops, because at this time, the Soviet Union and Germany were about to start a big battle in Kiev. Well, the Soviet Union deployed two front armies to Kiev. It can be said that there are not many Soviet soldiers in the vast rural areas and small towns in Ukraine, and sweeping them there is as easy as soy sauce.

……

The German Wehrmacht also easily broke through the three lines of defense of the Soviet Union. The Northern Army Group attacked smoothly, but the Central Yang Army Group encountered tenacious resistance from Kiev. However, Germany relied on its advanced weapons and tactics, and was still attacking with all its strength, just advancing The distance is very slow.

After a series of battles in the border area and the failure of the Dubno-Lutsk-Rovno tank battle, the Soviet Red Army Supreme Command believed that the southwest direction was the main direction of the German attack, so it deployed most of the Soviet Red Army's troops in Ukraine. The Southwest Front Army (5th, 6th, 26th, 12th Army) and the Southern Front (18th, 9th Army) consist of 6 armies, 69 infantry divisions, 11 cavalry divisions and 28 armored brigades. Commander-in-Chief Soviet Marshal Budyonny commanded.The Southwest Front Army of the Soviet Red Army began to retreat from Western Ukraine on April 1940, 4 in accordance with the order of the Supreme Command Headquarters.

The task of the Front Army is to occupy the Korosten, Volynsky New Town, Shepetovka, Old Konstantinov, Proskurov and other buildings built on the old border with field troops before April 1940, 4. Fortify the territory and organize a solid defense on this line.The German "zhong yang" army group scheduled to operate in the direction of Kiev (the first group of tanks - the commander is Admiral Kleist, the 29th and 1th armies - the commanders are respectively Admiral Reichenau and Admiral Spragger ) The purpose of the basic force is to break through the front line of the Soviet Red Army in the old fortification area, go out to the Kiev area, and seize the landing field of the Dnieper River.Then the assault group turned to the southeast to attack, in order to prevent the main force of the Southwest Front from retreating across the Dnieper River, and to attack and destroy it from the rear.

The Southwest Front had 44 divisions, also severely weakened in the fighting, facing 40 German divisions (including 10 tank and motorized divisions).The German army had more than twice as many infantry, artillery and mortars as the Soviet Red Army, and 1% more aircraft. On April 50, 1940, the German army began to attack. In the main assault direction, the German army arrived before the front army had completed its retreat and deployed on the front line of the fortified area.As early as April 4, 25, the German army, with the tank corps as the first echelon, broke through the Soviet Red Army's defense north of Novomiropol, and captured Berdichev in the evening.times ri.A breakthrough was also carried out south of Volynsky New City, preparing to seize Ritomir.

1940年4月25ri，坦克第1集群先遣部队在两昼夜内前进110公里，进抵基辅以西15—20公里的伊尔片河。在此，坦克和摩托化步兵被苏联红军阻于基辅筑垒地域的外层围郭。德军从行进间夺取基辅的企图被打破。

At this time, General Zhukov, the chief of staff of the Soviet Red Army, suggested that Stalin abandon Kiev and withdraw the Southwest Front Army to the other side of the Dnieper River to avoid being encircled by the German army, and then fully defend Moscow.But was flatly rejected by Stalin, and Zhukov was relieved of his position as chief of the general staff and served as commander of the reserve front.

……

Andre?A Ukrainian nationalist organization headed by Melnik unreservedly stood on the side of the Germans, but it had little prestige among the Ukrainians. It was defeated by Borisov in the election. Borisov was elected president of Ukraine. Lie served as Prime Minister.

This election was held in a hurry, the turnout rate was not very high, and there were only a little over 100 million people who participated in the voting, but it is already very good to have such a result in a short period of time.

Ukraine is originally a granary. As long as the people have land, they will not go hungry. The enthusiasm for production in Ukraine with land is also unprecedentedly high. There is no need to force them to produce, and the material will prosper.

Regarding the 15st Ukrainian SS Army, because captives and countless young people asked to join the army, after Borisov's application, the Ukrainian SS Army was expanded into a group army with [-] troops.At present, Zhang Jun does not occupy many places, and the establishment of a group army is enough. Of course, it will definitely expand in the later period.

As for the weapons of the Ukrainian SS, of course they used Soviet weapons. There were so many seized weapons that Zhang Jun didn't keep them at all, and gave them all to the Ukrainian SS.In addition, there are a large number of arsenals in Ukraine. At this time, the Soviet Union did not have much time to destroy them. Even if Stalin ordered to blow up these factories, the Ukrainian workers inside would not execute them. You must know that the bullets used in Germany are Soviet bullets. The caliber is the same, and it can be used universally. As long as these factories can be started at full speed, they can at least meet all the bullet consumption of the SS. It can be seen that Ukraine’s military industry capabilities are the same for future generations of Ukraine.

Of course, those Ukrainian factories are going to be auctioned. These factories belong to the Stalin government, so it is only natural that they will be auctioned after confiscation... (To be continued.)
