Time: 46 hours after departureLocation: Armoured train of the Marshall
POV: Kyle"s
""Marshall, the 2 candidates have been selected and are now preparing for the negotiations."" A Unteroffizier reported to me. ""Good, tell them they have to be ready in 2 hours as that is the estimated time of arrival in Kiev."" I replied casually, ""In the Marshall we trust!"" The Unteroffizier saluted before heading off. " Shadow and Zero must have already arrived at Kiev and start preparations, 2 diplomats both 5 stars, level 5 teacher and diplomat with one being also a level 4 doctor and the other a level 3 combatant. I should be relatively safe, now to start setting goals we need to achieve at the negotiations." I pondered, I stood up and walked to the wagon the two diplomats were preparing, ""In the Marshall we trust!"" They both saluted, I signalled them to be at ease. ""Men, there are a mult.i.tude of goals we have set for today"s negotiations, I would like your opinion on them which should be added or removed to the final list. I list them from the highest difficulty which we will probably ignore to the lowest:
1. Convince the Soviet Union to leave the league of nations and instead join the Council of Nation
2. The sole rights to Soviet Resources for Council of Nations Members
3. Ask for rights to produce goods in their country to be later exported back to ours, including military goods
4. Invite them to join the joint-research program
5. Invite them to join the joint-exercises program
6. Non-Aggression pact between the Soviet Union and all Members of the Council of Nations
7. Fleet basing rights and access to their Airs.p.a.ce
8.....
The list continued of all hypothetical goals we would like to reach, but quickly of the 50 ideas proposed 30 were removed, 10 new ones were added making the final list come to 30 goals to achieve during Negotiations, ""Good work men, although I wish some would be in there what you deem impossible we shall not try, now we have arrived it seems lets go."" I said before heading off, the other 2 diplomats were quickly packing their things before following behind me.
""Добро пожаловать к славному Советскому Союзу!"" A commander in a thick coat wearing a big red star shouted from the rows of men in front of the train, "System, Purchase the Russian Language." I said in my head which was then transmitted through my wanderer"s headgear to the system who then bought it, "500 TUs deducted, please prepare for transfer!" The system sounded, I groan as the ma.s.sive amounts of information including Russian dialects enter my head. ""You alright Marshall?"" One of the diplomat"s whispers to me, I just signalled with my hand saying it is fine. ""Приносим извинения за возможные неудобства(We apologise for the inconvenience)"" I replied to the commander(They are speaking in Russian, but to make it easy and not translate all the time I write it In English). ""We are honoured to have a head of state to come to our glorious worker"s utopia!"" The commander said excitedly, ""Please follow us, Comrade Stalin is Waiting inside the Town hall."" The commander said while pointing to a building further in the distance. I just nodded and started to walk with my escort of over a 100 men towards the town hall. We entered the town hall which was decorated with pictures of Marx and Lenin, guards stood at every corner, 2 BT-7s were parked outside of the Townhall. "Security is Tight, I hope Zero and Shadow made their way in." I prayed.
""Comrade Stalin Together with his Adviser are seated inside, please proceed past the check, any weapons are not permitted during the talks."" A Russian Officer said, ""Understood"" I replied before heading towards the 2 guards who searched me and my 2 diplomats. Seeing that no weapons were on us they allowed us to enter the hallway leading towards the office.
We were silent all the way to the door, I knocked on the door waiting for a reply, ""заходи(come in)"" A young man said on the other side of the door. I pushed open the door adjusting a bit to the lighting before walking in, in the room were 7 men, one man in a seat behind the desk while 3 men were on each side of him, "Generals, Administrators, amba.s.sadors" I saw, were surrounding the man in the Middle, ""Приветствие Иосиф Сталин. Для меня большая честь встретиться с вами(Greetings Joseph Stalin, It is an honour to meet you)"" I said to the man In the Middle, ""глава государства в таком молодом возрасте(head of state at such a young age), I should be I who must be honoured to meet such a talented individual"" Stalin gave some quick pleasantries before continuing in a cold voice, ""Please sit down while we discuss our future cooperation."" I just nodded and immediately the 6 men behind Stalin and the 2 behind me started a heated debate while I and Stalin were just starring and listening, More than an hour pa.s.sed and about 10 minor goals have been achieved, ""Kyle follows me while our subordinates continue the discussion."" Stalin said before standing up and walking to another room. I entered the room quickly after Stalin entered, I closed the door blocking all noise from inside going out and the other way around. ""Kyle, I would like you to meet Petrov Iosif Yermolayevich."" Stalin said while sitting down, ""Just call me Petrov."" The man said with a slight smile. ""Now. Petrov is my main expert here on something you are familiar with, please let him finish and do not interrupt him."" Stalin continued coldly.
""Yes!"" Petrov replied before continuing, ""I shall first get something out of the way before telling you what we know to get your trust but to also help us. 1st I think you already have your suspicions, we know about you being a "Wanderer" and we know about the Liberator in England, we know as the REAL founder of the Soviet Union was the Liberator!"" Petrov said, "WHAT!" I shout in my mind, "This is bad, this is VERY bad." I cursed, ""Please be at ease!"" Petrov said quickly, before continuing ""We have cut all ties with the Liberator. The Liberator has caused too much death and killed too many Revolutionists, with the worst being the Норильск ma.s.sacre, our Leader Lenin was killed at his hands while Trotsky was under the Liberator"s influence, only Stalin stood up and cleansed their Influences, it is sad that even now large amounts of influences left by the liberator are still present, we are currently purging them, at a great cost to our country."" Petrov said dejectedly, ""But that has caused us to gather all knowledge on them, and one of our highest valued piece of information is the Doc.u.ment file code-named Power Balance. It gave us the entire overview of their war! We are willing to share all our information, but in return we want you to help us remove all Liberator"s influences in our Country, we warn you that the costs will be high.""
