19th June 1940
Nazi Germany has captured many of France's major cities, notable are Paris, Lyon, Tolouse, Italy has captured Marseille, and Nice, and various other ones. As the armies move in to besiege Bordeaux as the French make their last ditch attempt of survival, we see hundreds of thousands of communist comrades of the French. Certain comrades that we had a non-aggression-pact with. The Soviets bear their red flags high, decimating the German and Italian forces. Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy quickly retreat, seeing the magnitude of the strength the Soviets have brought upon us from this front.
20th June 1940
Because of the betrayal from the Soviet Union, Hitler has made an executive decision to initiate Operation Barbarossa much earlier than intended. Because of this decision, we are ill-equipped. Instead of the 142 infantry divisions, and the 17 Panzer divisions we had hoped to accumulate by this time, we had 105 infantry divisions, and 9 Panzer divisions. We do not expect much of the Soviets, as it is summer, and we have a large portion of our military charging into their land.
