On the first day of May, a group of special guests were ushered in the office of Akado. These guests are special envoys from Turkey. After finalizing the interest relationship between Turkey and Germany, they will announce the joining of "Steel" The Agreement became another new member of the Axis Powers.
The reason why Turkey has waited until now is on the one hand to wait for a win or loss between Germany and the United Kingdom, on the other hand to wait for the price to sell, comparing the various benefits given by the United Kingdom and Germany, and seeking a maximum for their own future Interests.
Because of the superiority and strategic location, Turkey has been playing a procrastination strategy. They salivate the Balkans and are hostile to the Soviet Union. Of course they also covet the land of the Middle East. As a country with ambitions and expansion capabilities, Turkey has a reason for Germany. Both countries were rising countries before the First World War, and they both had their own territories and were suppressed by the United Kingdom. If they were not united, would n’t it be unreasonable?
However, because Turkey did not seem to have benefited from World War I, this country was very cautious. They do not want to be easily involved in the world war, but they want to share their benefits in the world war. This is the current situation in Turkey: greedy and unwilling to contribute.
It is a pity that the recent German streak of victories has stimulated the nerves of the radicals in Turkey. They are sensitive to realize that if Turkey does not shoot quickly, the interests claimed by Turkey will be distributed by Germany to other Axis countries, such as Italy. I have always had my own views on the Balkan Peninsula.
Suddenly I heard that German airborne troops stormed the island of Malta with lightning speed, and extended his hand to the islands in the Mediterranean Sea. Turkey's big men began to sit still. They are afraid that Germany will also win in the Balkans with lightning, so that the benefits Germany has promised to Turkey have become overwhelming.
"My head of state, we have traveled thousands of miles to make the final confirmation. On the Balkan issue, Germany and Turkey, and even Italy, can we really achieve equal division of interests?" As soon as he sat down, the Turkish diplomat Asked Akado.
Akado glanced at Merkel and then nodded slightly: "Of course, Germany has always regarded Turkey as a friendly partner country, and the" Steel Agreement "has always been looking forward to Turkey's accession-in the Balkans, the Greek region has historically been the Turkish Empire Mussolini ’s leaders have reached a consensus with me on this point, and Germany is also a country that respects history. "
After he said this, he turned his head and watched the Turkish diplomats continue to say: "But please understand your country's truth that Germany is not a fool and will not give its own benefits to others in vain, Our meaning is very simple, there is no problem to want benefits, but we must fulfill the obligations of an ally. "
Turkey ’s representatives were silent. They naturally knew the specific content of their obligations. In the past six months, they have been studying the contents of these treaties every day. They are carefully weighing whether they can bring benefits to Turkey. Recently they reached a conclusion, otherwise they would not rush here. But diplomacy is diplomacy, and it is necessary to bargain on every condition.
"My head of state, since it is a comprehensive submission of the covenant, Turkey will naturally fulfill the obligations stipulated in the covenant." The Turkish diplomat carefully negotiated his own words and carefully bargained: "We will send troops if conditions permit. The Middle East disrupts Britain ’s strategic deployment in the Middle East. We will also conduct military deterrence on the Soviet border to attract some of the Soviet Union ’s attention. "
"When conditions permit?" Akado raised his eyebrows, looked at the Turkish diplomat in front of him, and sneered: "Germany is Poland, which is wiped out when conditions permit? Is it annihilated if conditions permit?" The Anglo-French alliance? Every battle we fight is a victory for soldiers with life and blood! Waiting for the benefits and then picking up the cheap behind? Why can't Germany catch up with such a good thing? "
The Italian diplomat who was watching was blushing and almost buried his head in his crotch. The performance of the Italian army in France was almost shameful. The mess in North Africa is still making the Germans pay. If you pick up the cheap at the back, it is almost Italy.
However, somehow Italy has done a better job, that is, although the battlefield performance is very general, but it does contribute. Italy is one of Germany's earliest allies and a major country in the world that has always supported Germany internationally. At this point, even Rommel, who was directly dealing with the Italian army, had to admit that in some areas the Italians did what allies should do.
A team like Turkey is swaying from side to side, watching the limelight and betting. At the last minute, it is still bargaining. Even the Italians with thicker skin than the city walls feel a little too shameful, if they are not in the headroom of the head of state. There is really no courage to take the case. They all want to ask the Turks why they dare to compete with Italy for the Balkans.
The Italian diplomat asked himself if he did not have the courage to clap the table in front of Akado and glared his eyes, and he did not dare to speak out at this time. At least the German head of state has not yet brought the problem to Italy's battles, and it is definitely an unwise choice to come forward.
The Italian diplomat hypnotized himself when he thought of his country and helped some small things. He sat comfortably in his position, not looking aside at Merkel's and Turks' playful eyes.
"My head, Turkey has never had the habit of not gaining nothing!" After listening to Akado, the Turkish diplomat replied with a frown: "We will be ready to start in the Middle East within a maximum of two months In preparation for the war, Turkish troops will go south, looking for opportunities to attack the local British garrison. "
He paused and then said: "To prove that we really have this sincerity, Turkey will declare war on the British government of Iceland in two days!"
In this way, Turkey is completely prepared to board the German chariot, and it is so awe-inspiring to say that the looting after the declaration of war against Iceland and Britain is so awe-inspiring. Akado feels that these diplomats should all speak in a cross talk, at least their mouths are absolutely An unmatched advantage.
The German soldiers used courage and blood to win the battle. They can get it by spraying their mouths. This is the so-called three-inch tongue? Akado glanced helplessly at Merkel, and suddenly felt that he could have such a talent.
Merkel saw Akado's eyes and knew it was time for him to go out, so he stood up decisively and became the protagonist of the alliance meeting between the two countries today. Facts have proved that although the level of diplomats is important, the level of national strength is even more important. Merkel is still in the face of various demands put forward by the Turkish envoys, and there has been fierce competition between the two sides.
The war in the Middle East is naturally not the case if Turkey dispatches troops. If it is simply a troop to occupy an area, and it is such a far away area, what else do you sit down to discuss, youcanyouup not finished, what effort? Therefore, this kind of troop dispatch is naturally accompanied by the distribution of oil interests of the entire steel axis in the Middle East in the future.
That is to say, if you send troops to the Middle East, Turkey will hand over part of the benefits to Germany and Italy, so that Germany and Italy will recognize Turkey's power in Greece-in fact, it is a process of buying insurance each other. Cause you to have me and you to have your community of interests, strengthen the covenant strength of the steel axis.
The three countries even include Franco ’s Spain, Betten ’s Vichy France, Chamberlain ’s northern United Kingdom, and the new country of Ireland. Everyone has extended their own forks and knives to start dividing up the Middle East oil fields that are still British and American interests. Representatives of several countries compete for each barrel of oil quota, and everyone has their own reasons. The greedy appearance of these people reminded Akado of the Paris conference that year. When Chinese diplomats watched a group of countries discussing the benefits they deserved from their motherland, he felt uncomfortable.
The final distribution of benefits is completed. The latest distribution plan is that the United States still accounts for 20% of the output of the entire Middle East oil field, Germany accounts for 30%, Turkey can account for 20%, Italy, Spain and France each account for 10%, local forces account for 20%, other The country shares the remaining 10%. Everyone said that this distribution was fair, and it was a result of everyone's joy.
Later in the day, these Turkish secrets rushed to Germany for diplomats to attend a high-profile reception held by Krupp. The two sides showed good intentions for cooperation at the reception.
The next morning, diplomats from both sides officially confirmed the alliance relationship at a press conference of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Berlin. Turkey joined the steel axis and became a new member of the group.
This blow was a bit huge for Britain, and the war situation in the Mediterranean immediately became worse. Barton and Montgomery, who were still planning to fight back Rommel, immediately gave up their plans to fight back and began to work hard to strengthen the Tobruk Fortress.
On the afternoon of the same day, Turkey officially declared war on the British government in exile in Iceland. This news shocked the American government and the United States, and the interests of the United States in the Middle East were under unprecedented threats. US President Roosevelt immediately summoned the German ambassador to the United States and asked whether the Axis Group ’s future military action plan in the Middle East targeted the United States.
