On the night of July 19, 1934. Berlin, the residence of the head of state.
"My head of state." As the first person in charge of the German intelligence service, Gaskol has many secret secret intelligence channels in Germany. At this moment he is standing at the desk of Akado, worshipping Looked at his idol: "According to your prediction, we have strengthened our surveillance of Spain, and it has now been confirmed that just yesterday, the troops of West Morocco had undergone a mutiny."
Akado nodded: "Well, since that's the case, then everything will go according to plan. Organize our interest chain in Spain, and then we can open a price with our Spanish friends."
...
As the economic crisis broke out and continued, Spain at the western end of Europe was turbulent. People control most of the region, making Spain more and more the trend to become the second Soviet.
On July 18, 1934, the Spanish army stationed in Monaco clashed with local people. Under the impetus of the British government, this incident quickly expanded and caused a series of vicious reactions in the Spanish colony.
The unbearable Monaco garrison that has been squeezed out by the Spanish mainland and the Republican government and local businessmen have negotiated, killed a group of pro-Republican officials and soldiers, and raised the banner of opposition to the Republican government.
The Spanish colonial forces of Monaco and the Canary Islands launched a rebellion under the leadership of General Francisco Franco and Mora. The rebellion quickly spread to large and medium-sized cities such as Cádiz, Seville, Zaragoza, and Burgos. Most troops of the Army and Air Force and the "foreign legion" composed of Moroccans participated in the rebellion.
This troop with more than 120,000 people looks much stronger than the Spanish Republican Army. Under the command of Franco and Mora, they also achieved certain results at the beginning of the war.
Franco ’s army took advantage of the Republican government ’s hesitation to quickly occupy Western Morocco, the Canary Islands, the Balearic Islands, and the northern and southwestern provinces of Spain ’s mainland. On July 30, the Defence Council was established in Burgos. "An attempt was made to attack Madrid from north to south and to seize national power.
However, the good times are not long, because the opposition of the British Parliament and the domestic economic situation are not very optimistic. The plan that originally intended to support General Franco was eventually aborted. Franco ’s army lost the only support of external forces and attacked. It gradually slowed down, which also gave the Republican government a chance to breathe.
The Republican government exchanged land for time for reaction. After the Civil War, people from all walks of life in Spain responded to the call of the Popular Front and took up arms to defend their republic. Within two days, a total of 300,000 people signed up to join the militia organization, the People ’s Guard.
Later, because they could not get the support that Franco promised, the supporters of Franco and others had fought in large and medium-sized cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Valencia, Cartagena, Malaga, and Bilbao. Quickly subsided.
At this moment, the Franco army only controlled Andalusia in the south and Galicia, Navarre, and Old Castile in the north. The Republican Army controls all industrial and political centers, major ports, main lines of transportation, and important agricultural areas. At this stage of the war, everyone has seen that the situation is beginning to be detrimental to Franco.
In the headquarters of the Franco army established in Seville, Franco and several of his confidants are studying the next countermeasures. Mora, the second man of the Franco army, has been sent to the front line of Cordoba to direct the defensive operations.
"The war can no longer proceed like this!" Franco frowned, looking at the combat map on the table. "Although we have a firm foothold in Cadiz and Huelva, the Republican troops still occupy The vast majority. "
"General Franco! The British government ’s commitment to our support has not been fulfilled, and they are still watching. If we continue to fight like this, we will have to run out of food." A general stood behind Franco and exhorted : "The Republican Army has the support of the French and the Soviet government and is more willing to fight the war of attrition than we are."
"We can't count on the British to fulfill their promise! Maybe we should find some stronger supporters." A staff member in a suit stood up and said to Franco: "There are many powerful countries in Europe who are afraid of the expansion of , they do n’t want to A country appears at the western end of Europe. "
"Of course I know." Franco said with a sigh: "But in order to take the lead, I only made the British government's promise, and did not contact other countries. Now that I'm looking for it, I will be forced to give up Huge national interest. "
"But, Lord General! If we do n’t send our people to contact the countries at this time, then we really want to lose this war! Once the republican army has defeated our army, then we and the traitors who betrayed our national interests will not end. Any difference. "The staff said.
"That's right! We can't sit still! We can rent ports, sell minerals, and even allow troops from those countries to enter our territory, but we can't defeat!" The general behind Franco said loudly: "As long as we win Sooner or later, the lost things can be taken back sooner or later! But if we fail, then we have no chance. "
Franco nodded and said, "Since everyone feels that they should contact supporters again, let's plan well, which country should we ask for help."
The headquarters was silent for a while, and after a few minutes, the talking staff tentatively said a country in a non-exuberant tone: "Or, send someone to Italy to try?"
"It's not good in Italy!" Franco shook his head. "As far as I know, Italy, like the United Kingdom, is still overwhelmed by the economic crisis. If they pit us once more like the British, we will really lose our lives."
"Then go to Germany! At least the Germans did not suffer a huge loss in this economic crisis. They have already gone out of the economic crisis and have taken advantage of the two things that annexed Austria and Czechoslovakia." The staff thought I would like to suggest again: "If there is a country capable of supporting us, then I think this country must be Germany."
"The Germans are very proud of their recent spring breeze. They are heading east. They seem to be preparing to act as anti-Soviet pioneers in Western countries. Will they have little interest in Spain?" Franco shook his head and questioned.
"Always give it a try." The general behind Franco said: "As long as we give them enough conditions, they will be tempted!"
"Try it!" Franco nodded and said, "If it were me, I would not give up the big benefits in front of an illusory enemy. The German leader Akado Rudolf is not a fool, on the contrary he Very good at grasping the strategic direction, he will not make mistakes at this critical moment. "
Speaking of which, Franco looked at his staff, patted his shoulder and said solemnly: "There are really not many people I can trust on your side, you go to Germany in person, remember! Try their best to win their support! But the bargaining place should not be too retreat! Too cheap prices will only make the Germans look down on us! Do you understand? "
"Report!" A soldier came from outside the door and shouted loudly: "Report general! According to intelligence provided by our army scouts, Republican troops are gathering in the Cordoba area, with a number of about 10,000."
"It seems that the Republican Army does not intend to give us a chance to correct our mistakes!" Franco grinned bitterly, then walked to the map to examine it carefully. After a few seconds, he nodded and commanded the incoming soldier: "Telegram, order General Mora! Let him lead Cordoba's troops, immediately deploy a line of defense and prepare for a street fight."
Then he looked at his staff again: "The situation is critical, and we can rely on you to win the final victory."
The staff nodded: "Please rest assured that your lord! I will do my best to win the support of Germany!"
"So, from now on, you are my personal envoy. Go and prepare! I will arrange for you to go to Cadiz tonight, where you will take a boat to Italy, and from Italy to Germany!"
The Spanish special envoy arrived at Cadiz, a port in southwestern Spain, that night, and took a boat to Italy, where he took the train to Germany and Austria. After seven days of tossing and turning, he finally arrived in the German capital Berlin.
After reporting the news, he was taken to the duty room by two SSs and searched rigorously, while another SS officer informed the head security office of his arrival.
"It seems that your prediction is accurate." Gere smiled and told the Spanish envoy that he had come to Germany. "It was not easy for him to come once. Because according to the information provided by our intelligence network, a day ago, Buddha Lango ’s army lost Cordoba. "
Akado laughed: "Arrange him to come in! This time it was the people who delivered the benefits to our door. If I don't eat, I feel sorry for them."
"Oh." Anna covered her mouth and laughed out loud: "Master, you are so humorous."
The Spanish special envoy was invited into the palace of the head of state after ten minutes and sat in front of the German head of state Akado. He clarified his intentions in a hurry, and then looked at the German leader in front of him enthusiastically: "The great German head of state. I hope you can help Spain get rid of the horror rule of ! I think the Spanish people will appreciate your great And generous. "
"Everyone who knows me knows that I am a miser." Akado smiled and looked at the Spanish envoy. He stood up and walked over to shake hands with him: "I don't buy a dress for a few months, save a little The meager salary is donated to the country for construction. "
"Head of State ... Mr." The Spanish Special Envoy really did not know what to call after the head of state. It seems that both Your Excellency and Your Highness are not very accurate, so I chose the term Mr .: "I admire your selflessness and greatness, but we still Talk about the Spanish Civil War, after all my compatriots are suffering. "
Akado nodded, then made a seated gesture and said, "As you wish."
