Voroshilov said with a serious and sad expression: "Our party is a party under collective leadership, a country under collective leadership, and Comrade Stalin alone cannot make mistakes. I have made many mistakes, many of which Comrade Stalin has repeatedly reminded me of the mistakes I have made, and I am willing to review them, and I do not want Comrade Stalin to bear the blame for my mistakes. ”

Khrushchev's statement was a little more tone: "Did Comrade Stalin make a mistake? Of course, there were, but Comrade Stalin made correct judgments and correct strategic intentions more often, and he reminded imperialism that the will to destroy itself would not die, and he had long ago explained that the Germans and the National Socialist Party were the most vicious enemies of the Party, and that they had made a great deal of preparations before the war, and even did not hesitate to sign a non-aggression pact to delay the outbreak of the war, and as a result, the war still began. ”

Molotov also said: "Comrade Stalin always believed that the outbreak of war was inevitable, and he desperately demanded the development of heavy industry, military industry, and equipment industry, and of course made many impatient and rash mistakes in the process, but his ideas were good, his starting point was positive, his vision was long-term, and his strategy was clever, and it was nothing more than that the imbalance in the balance of forces between us and the enemy was too serious. We could have made fewer mistakes, and I would like to sincerely review them with Comrade Stalin. ”

Beria spoke on behalf of a large number of members of the Central Committee: "There are various voices saying that Comrade Stalin has made a deviation in the work of purging the rebellion, and I admit that there are some problems, but this is basically caused by our comrades in charge of the actual work, and it is not that the direction, significance, or goal of the suppression are wrong, and Comrade Stalin cannot be blamed. If there had been no rebellion, would there still be the party today, and all of you here? I'm afraid we're all in the concentration camps of the Germans, right? Therefore, we are willing to continue to rally around Comrade Stalin and ask him to continue to lead the comrades of the whole Party and the people of the whole country forward. ”

Zhukov tearfully spoke on behalf of the army: "All the soldiers of the Red Army must apologize to Comrade Stalin, to the whole party, and to the people of the whole country, because our will to fight is not firm enough, our combat capability is not strong enough, and our combat coordination is not united enough, so that we often suffer defeats and lose many battles that should not be lost and cannot be lost. As far as I am concerned, I have reviewed it to the party many times, and today I am willing to review it again similar to the blow to the national separatists, which I used to think was too heavy and inhumane, and I also opposed Comrade Stalin's correct proposition, but after the war, now I think that our original approach is still too light and too tolerant, and that connivance with the enemy is a cruelty to the people, and I am too immature."

The final enlarged plenary session of the Central Committee went down in history as the "Omsk Congress of 3,000 People": the meeting listened to Comrade Stalin's report on the situation of the Great Patriotic War, listened to his self-examination and analysis as general secretary of the party, listened to the criticism and self-criticism of the comrades of the whole party, fully discussed the principles of how to move the party in the future, how to fight the red flag, how to develop the country, and formed a highly unified ideological consensus The party is determined to throw away the burden, throw away the illusions, fight with all its might, and start anew This congress is a solemn unity, Victorious and enterprising meeting! It is a conference that unifies ideas and unites people's hearts! It is a meeting that invigorates the spirit and inspires the fighting spirit! It is a conference that carries forward the past and forges ahead into the future! ”

Stalin's father chose to convene the conference in November, of course, for reasons: because of the various inconveniences of the relocation to the east of the Urals, internal complaints and rumors, Beria, who was in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, had proposed a purge to purge the "bad elements" who had mixed in, and even a group of close comrades-in-arms considered it necessary, but this proposal was rejected by him after careful consideration.

He considered the Bolsheviks and the whole country (referring to East Russia) as a whole, and of course it was necessary to review, how could he explain to the people without such a big defeat, so many sacrifices, and so much land? But the necessary arrangements still need to be made, so there is a deployment of the 3,000-person conference.

At the same time, he also knows that the Russian people are not without a choice, they have two paths and two directions to choose from, and the total population of East Russia is already small, and if they engage in self-rectification and self-purification, they will either force people to defect to their opponents or continue to weaken themselves, which is like suicide no matter how you look at it.

Therefore, he expounded his vision at the Politburo meeting and expressed his willingness to self-examine and retire.

His close comrades-in-arms were well aware that the responsibility for the defeat in the Great Patriotic War could only be borne by Stalin and not by anyone else. Of course, in the future, the party can only be led by a man like Stalin, who has an iron will and a sense of the overall situation. Originally, Trotsky was also a worthy candidate, but he had been killed with an ice axe by agents of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Mexico four years earlier, so this burden was not fulfilled by anyone else except for Daddy Stalin's continued selection.

Stalin's own attitude made the Politburo comrades see many positive aspects, such as he did not deny that there were spies and spies who had mixed in, but believed that the people as a whole were good, "Comrades, you have to think about it, if these people have no feelings for the party and the country, how can they follow us all the way to move here? Wouldn't they slip away and defect in the middle of the way, there are quite a few such people in Vlasov, and the fact that they can come here with us shows that their position is firm and can stand the test. As for having complaints, why can't it be said? If you have an opinion about me, you can also say that you are revolutionary comrades-in-arms who are heart-to-heart and heart-to-heart, so what can you not say but hide? ”

Everyone was stunned for a moment, but then they also realized that in the course of a few months of transfer, many people who had sworn to follow the party for generations finally compromised and defected to Vlasov, but they have always been a little dissatisfied with the party, and those who wanted to criticize a few words intentionally or unintentionally followed the party firmly. On the contrary, people who have no principles and no stance to go along with certain practices of the party and its leaders, and who do not leave their mouths of "long live" and "great, glorious, and correct" all day long are more likely to be two-faced and duplicitous opportunists

In the words of these people, "the party is bad in one way or another, but the party is always its own people, it wants to make the country good, it wants the country to be strong, Vlasov is just a dog raised by the Germans, we are willing to give the party another chance, we are willing to work together with the party, I hope that the party can mature and grow, the strength of the Bolsheviks before the October Revolution was also very weak, now at least much stronger than then!" ”

If this kind of typical words were placed 10 years ago, or even 5 years ago, how old would you be, dare to say that you would give the party a chance? But at least from the current point of view, many people who are willing to follow thousands of miles away are still their own people who are determined and have a firm position.

It was also because of this factor that Stalin knew what the morale of the people and the army was, and he was sure to hold the "Congress of 3,000 People," which now seems to have been a success. After Stalin's review, his reputation and prestige were not greatly affected, he was still the leader of the party, his comrades-in-arms of the Politburo were still important leaders of the party, and Beria, Malenkov, Voznesensky, and Bulganin, who had been added to the Politburo, were all very modest, and in particular, Voznesensky, an economist and deputy People's Commissar of the Committee for Economic Recovery, became a member of the Politburo (Voroshilov was the number one).

At today's Politburo meeting, everyone stopped speaking on past issues and mistakes, and the focus was on "looking forward in unity."

After Voroshilov finished reporting the relevant data, Voznesensky expounded on the key tasks for next year, and then the development and recovery of ordinary industry was ignored for the time being, and the focus of discussion quickly shifted to the tank industry, the drawings of the T44 tank submitted by the Morozov Design Bureau and the design ideas of the T54 tank.

The design bureau developed the T34M tank on the basis of the pre-war T44M tank. This tank is equipped with a new torsion bar suspension and a horizontal engine, and the hull machine gun is removed, so that it has the same performance as the T34 and effectively increases the armor protection, making it a more comprehensive and better medium tank than the urgently produced T43. Of course, the T44 also has a major weakness, that is, the turret is too small, and it can only accommodate the same 85mm tank gun as the T43/85 type, which the Red Army originally thought was enough, and the T43/85 could have enough advantages.

But the ideal was ruthlessly shattered in the face of reality, when Zhukov led the Southern Front campaign cluster to try to fight a large-scale battle at Stalingrad, as a result, his painstakingly selected Guards tank units were easily overwhelmed by Thor's hammer, the Panther overwhelmed the T43/85, the Tiger 2 overwhelmed the IS2, and the Tiger overwhelmed the IS1.

In order to effectively deal with the impact of the leopard, the T44 and even the T54 were ready to come into being
