Although Stalin was the great leader of the Soviet Union, he seemed to be a little different from ordinary people in his own family life, and in the face of the news of his son's capture, Stalin not only did not rescue him, but also arrested his daughter-in-law and imprisoned him at the first time, and shot his son's aunt on the spot.
Yakov was the son of Stalin and Catherine, who was Stalin's first wife, when Stalin was just a revolutionary running for the revolution.
Catherine and Stalin were living in poverty at that time, after giving birth to a son, Catherine unfortunately died, it stands to reason that Stalin, who was a husband, should accompany Yakov, who was only two years old at this time, but Stalin did not do this, in the face of the death of his wife and the son who was waiting to be fed, Stalin continued to devote himself to the revolution.
Stalin was not only iron-blooded to himself, but also to his son Yakov, who did not want to see his son have a weak appearance.
When Yakov was still very young, Stalin educated his son, who had not yet devoted himself to the revolution, and he taught his son to be a useful person, a useful person to the revolution, and after being arrested, it was better to kill himself than to ask for help.
This also laid the groundwork for some of Yakov's later experiences, Stalin's personal love life was not too smooth, after all, Catherine died not long after marrying him.
Yakov was also the same as his father, after Yakov married his first wife, he had a daughter, who was very cute, but died soon after, and Yakov, who was devastated, divorced his wife.
Yakov, devastated by the death of his daughter, met Julia, a dancer, in a state of depression. Julia was young, beautiful and generous, and Yakov fell in love with Julia at first sight, but unfortunately, Julia was already an adult at that time.
Yakov forcibly seized Julia, not only did he finally get the beauty back, but according to reports, Julia's ex-husband seems to have been secretly executed.
This robbed marriage did not bring happiness to Yakov and Julia, and after this robbed marriage, both of them were punished by bad luck.
Yakov was captured by Germany during World War II and imprisoned in a concentration camp, where Stalin knew very well, and it was suggested that Stalin exchange the German Field Marshal Paulus for his son.
But Stalin did not adopt this suggestion, he thought that it was not worth exchanging a marshal for a soldier, it can be seen that Stalin was cold-blooded enough, and it was precisely because Stalin was cold-blooded enough that Yakov, who was not rescued, could only save himself.
According to Yakov's writer's daughter, Yakov was very resolute at the time, did not reveal any secrets, and even tried to escape from the enemy captivity on his own, but at the last moment he fell short and was shot dead by the enemy, with at least 15 bullets in his body.
The son's heroic victory in the enemy did not exchange Stalin's affirmation of the Yakov family, but Stalin suspected his daughter-in-law Julia, and in addition to the suspicion of Julia, the people related to Yakov, that is, the younger brother of Stalin's first wife Catherine, and the younger brother's wife, all of whom were killed by Stalin.
In terms of personal family, Stalin was cold-blooded and suspicious by nature, which led to many of Stalin's relatives eventually turning against Stalin, the most famous of whom may be Stalin's daughter, who eventually became an American citizen.
