Italy, Rome, the residence of the leader. Mussolini stood on the balcony with his hands on his back, listening to his beautiful secretary reading messages from Berlin. Mussolini has been very unhappy recently, because Italy's position in the Axis Group has slipped from the first to the current position of the 10,000-year-old second.
Don't doubt it. In fact, Mussolini saw Akado completely like a boss himself, but after a few years, he no longer looked up in front of the Germans.
In fact, in a national alliance, how hard one's waist is depends entirely on how strong one's own country is. This is even more true in the war era, as long as you intuitively compare the achievements of the alliance countries, you can easily arrange each other's affiliation.
Sighing at the thought of Mussolini, he really sighed under the circumstances. Take a look at the Germans: Defeat Poland along the way, sweep France, march into English, and now fight against the Soviet Union ... damn, think of it as a rainbow. Let's take a look at his own history of blood and tears: the invasion of Ethiopia was halted by others. He took advantage of the fire and robbed France and was beaten back. North Africa was defeated all the time and asked the Germans to stabilize the situation.
Such a huge gap caused Mussolini to postpone the time of going to Berlin for a friendly visit, even the listing ceremony of the special liaison agency of the new Axis Powers in Germany.
A few days ago, it was known that Akado was about to import Timing. He wanted to congratulate him personally, but because Rommel of the German North African Army complained that Italy ’s supply of supplies was not timely and Mussolini ’s face was dull. Once the Daoxi itinerary finally disappeared again.
"The Berlin side hopes that within the next 3 to 5 days, we will arrange for 70 transport ships in addition to the normal supply vessels to set sail and deliver some of the equipment of the 12th Armored Division and important supplies to General Rommel. The sweet voice of the secretary continued, interrupting Mussolini's thoughts.
"This Rommel, in order to supply his troops, I have made almost half of the Italian troops hungry. What else does he want?" Mussolini opened his hatred, and there were obviously others in the room besides the secretary. And many people.
A navy general complained while wiping his sweat: "Leader, we are not a transport team. Now throughout the Mediterranean, we are occupying our fleet for transport every day, and even destroyers are transporting people, but there is still no way to satisfy the Germans. There is no end to the demand for supplies. "
"Yes!" An air force general also nodded: "A military has more things than our group army. Since the number of their fighter forces increased, our air force has begun to limit the number of takeoffs except me-109c. Now! "
Obviously, this air force commander is a victim of the German-led military. In the eyes of the German air force commanders, except for the small number of me-109c fighters, which are still combat power, the Italian Air Force ’s heavy and slow aircraft are nothing. Qualified strike force. So the Germans made a big swipe and allocated all of Italy's aviation fuel to their Stuca and d0-217 bomber units.
The Italian army general on the side glanced at the complaints of the navy and the air force, which were obviously more wronged, but before he spoke, Mussolini interrupted: "Okay! Okay! I know the life of the army is more difficult. , You do n’t need to show me a stomachache! "
Everyone smirked and smiled. Compared to the grievances suffered by the Italian Navy and the Air Force, the Italian Army is simply an angry little daughter-in-law. In order to meet the huge supply of German troops, the daily meals of some Italian troops have dropped a lot, and even some troops have not even distributed ammunition in time.
In fact, Mussolini had fought for the opinions of the German side. He even privately disclosed his dissatisfaction to Marshal Brouchich, asking the German front-line commanders to maintain the traditional friendship between Italy and Germany. But his protest was easily overwhelmed by Braušić. The German marshal sneered, and then said: "Mr. Leader, except for your black shirt army, which Italian army do I hand over to? Beat the Britons like the Germans? "
"Remove 70 ships! Give the supplies to Rommel! I don't care what you think! But this order must be carried out without compromise! Do you understand?" Mussolini finally gritted his teeth. He must give an explanation to the German General Staff and the Supreme Command, because the German-Italian Allied Forces in North Africa are seizing the benefits of North Africa for Italy. If he does not work hard, the Germans can completely pat the and go home, leaving a mess that cannot be cleaned For Italians.
Italy is also adapting to the war situation little by little. Mussolini passed the wartime provisional bill in April and established the Italian logistics supply department, which temporarily stabilized Italy's chaotic logistics support work. However, Italy's preparations for participating in the war are really terrible. Up to now, the whole of Italy has not been ready to fight a war.
Akado certainly knows what virtue Italy is. In another time and space, what he has done can be described as funny. You said that a country suddenly announced that it would break away from the Axis Powers against Germany under the unfavorable conditions of war, and then it was completely occupied by German soldiers, and then announced that we would continue to fight Americans with German allies. From this we can see the mentality of the Italians: we do n’t really matter who we fight, anyway, do n’t expect us to win.
"Now we have to study and study how to maintain an inseparable ally relationship with Germany." Mussolini rubbed his temple, because there were too many facts to make him jump.
It is obviously unrealistic to count on his Italian forces to maintain relations between the two countries. It is estimated that if Italy continues to be so weak, Germany will discuss with Turkey how to divide Italy after the Balkan Peninsula is divided.
"Leader, are we going to move around with the Pope of the Vatican, did the German head of state just have a son, and we find a good name for his son, this is a gift that the head of state will not refuse to say." The most excluded army The general quickly hurriedly said that if it was not because he had some ghost ideas, he would have been killed by Mussolini countless times based on the Army ’s record of pit father.
This approach made Mussolini's eyes bright and nodded quickly. This gift is definitely the best choice, even more than the average physical gift to Akado's heart. Even if Arcado is disdainful, then Arcado's wife Mercedes will surely laugh at the good news from the Pope's Hall. After all, it can scare the children of the Vatican and see the whole world.
"Let the Pope Hall give this child a title ... The title of Duke. The Grand German Party has been advocating for Akado to be an emperor. If his son has such a title, will he accept the idea of ​​being an emperor? Down. "Mussolini whispered as he nodded.
Italy made a foreshadowing for the Mercedes family before. Shortly after marrying the head of the Akado, Mercedes became a noble recognized by the Vatican and Italy, and had its own noble title. Now it is logical to add a noble to Mercedes' son.
So Italian leader Mussolini personally went to the Vatican, gave the Archbishops a large sum of money, and donated a dozen luxury Mercedes-Benz cars to His Majesty the Pope. The public relations results were remarkable. Later in the day, the pope announced an amazing news. In the headquarter of Berlin, Germany, God ’s darling descended from the sky. The King of Italy and the former Queen of the Netherlands, William Minna, picked out at about the same time, admitting that the little boy whose son did not open his eyes was the Grand Duke of Iron Cross.
The little one didn't know that he was already a prominent Grand Duke, and the thin golden hair on his head was as soft as brocade. He was closing his eyes, snuggling in the arms of his mother, enjoying the most meticulous care and love in the world. The sky of smoke and the sea of ​​blood in the concentration camp seemed to have nothing to do with him. He just lay quietly, letting the people around him touch his smooth, fat-like skin with kind eyes.
"The little guy slept so sweet. He was like a beast when he was breastfeeding. He was very hard and impatient." Mercedes smiled and whispered to the head of state sitting next to Anna and Anna's cuteness and mischief.
"Look at this group of people, what do you give as a gift?" Anna pouted, apparently scorning the gift-giving level of the high-level celebrities of the Third Reich. She looked at the table where the gifts were piled up, picked up a golden pistol, and made a look of contempt.
Army Marshal Krupp gave the little guy a tank model, and Mr. Augustus gave him a huge map of Germany, and Krupp sent a deed of the castle at the foot of the Alps, Gerin Nike. The 3% tax-free Bailanhua Group stock was given to his grandson, and gifts from politicians from various countries, such as precious cars and famous cars, were numerous. Of course, the most frightening thing is the commander of the SS, Heidrich. This guy sent the gilded pistol in Anna's hand.
"There are good gifts, on the way." Akado smiled helplessly, it seems that these guys really can't catch up with the Italian leader Mussolini: "A gift that neither Mercedes nor I can refuse."
