Stalin finally said, "Let me think about it again. This also requires consulting the Politburo and other relevant leaders. " Later, he instructed Antonov to draft an instruction for Aleksandr Aleksandr Vasilevsky, that is, to send him to lead the operations of the 3rd Belarusian Army and 1 Army on the Baltic coast. See him away instructions, Stalin asked again:
"When are you going to the front?"
"Tomorrow!"
"Oh, in my opinion, you don't have to be in such a hurry. I suggest you stay at home for two days and go to the theatre to have a rest. By the way, please come to me again before you leave, that is, 19 night. "
"Ok, I'll do it according to your suggestion." Say that finish, Alexander Aleksandr Aleksandr Vasilevsky left. In his mind, this is the first time Stalin didn't rush him to the front.
However, the next day, the situation changed again. When he really came to the Moscow Grand Theatre, during the performance, his adjutant said that the Supreme Commander wanted him to answer the phone immediately. On the phone, Stalin told him an unfortunate news: General Cerna Jovsky, commander of the Belarusian Third Army, died of serious injuries in Melzak. Hearing the bad news, Alexander Vasilevsky was particularly shocked.
On the phone, Stalin also said that the base camp would send him to be the commander of the 3 rd Army of Belarus and asked him what he thought. Aleksandr Aleksandr Vasilevsky immediately expressed his willingness to obey the new arrangement of the base camp.
