Chapter 674: The situation is stronger than people

"He really said that?" When Mussolini got Akado's request from the Special Envoy's mouth, he didn't know whether he was frightened or angry, his clenched fist was slightly trembling, looking It's like an elderly patient with Parkinson's syndrome.
In fact, the Italian Navy is superior to the Army in combat will and combat preparation. The main reason why dozens of warships were moored in the port was not because the navy generals were cowardly and frightened, but because of the psychological effect of the cowardly warfare, they faithfully executed the leader Mussolini ’s absence outside the port of Alexandria Order to fight the British Navy Mediterranean Fleet.
In Mussolini's view, the British navy's Mediterranean fleet really can't beat Italy's main fleet, but after meeting with several navy generals, he firmed his mind. He and these naval generals believe that even if the British navy is In the end, it was siege by the Italian navy, and in the end the Italian navy would also lose 20 to 30%.
Theoretically, if the British Mediterranean Fleet is annihilated, the Italian Navy will have no opponents in the entire Mediterranean Sea. Even if they fight for their losses and eat their opponents, it is not unacceptable for the Italian Navy who wants to control the Mediterranean Sea. Rini was from a political background, and he was n’t just thinking about a complete comparison of military power.
What politicians see is often more and more comprehensive. Sometimes it is a good thing, sometimes it is completely tragic. In Mussolini's eyes, after annihilating 1 ★ the British Mediterranean Fleet, the entire "Italian Inner Lake" not only has an Italian navy, but also has a weak but not negligible French navy fleet, and even more Mexican Solini is worried about the future Mediterranean navy squadron.
Therefore, he felt that he should think of a way to do something to preserve the size and strength of the Italian Navy. He felt that in the future Mediterranean area, the Italian navy should maintain a small range of absolute power. In order to ensure this power, he decided to betray his faith once.
Everyone with a discerning eye knows that after losing coastal ports such as Alexandria, the British Mediterranean Fleet has only two endings, either leaving the Mediterranean or surrendering to the Axis powers in the Mediterranean region. No matter which of these two roads the British choose, it has no essential impact on the Italian Navy's goal of dominating the Mediterranean.
As for the more distant future, Mussolini was too lazy to worry about it, and he did not have the idea of ​​allowing the Italian navy to expedite the Indian Ocean. For the Italian navy, which lacked the ability to deploy ocean-going operations, dominating the Mediterranean was the biggest dream they could think of in their lifetime.
Because Italy joined the Axis Powers and the highest ideal, or the highest strategic goal, to launch wars outrageously, is to "establish the glory of the Roman Empire" and "let the Mediterranean become the inner lake of the Kingdom of Italy." As for other ideas, The Italians have no courage to practice, nor do they have the imagination to practice.
The slogan of the glory of the Roman Empire was established, and it was a bit too far away. After all, the Roman regime in the Roman era owned France, Switzerland, most of Germany, the entire Balkans, and almost all of North Africa. It is absolutely impossible for them to say that half of France and Italy cannot afford to let them run to order Germany to hand over Munich to Italy to rebuild the Roman Empire.
Therefore, Mussolini ’s other slogan
Let the Mediterranean Sea become the inner lake of the Kingdom of Italy
has become the last bit of thought in the minds of Italian high-level leaders. So several generals of the Italian navy united to confuse Mussolini, and together they made such a plan that cost Akado a total of 3,000 German paratroopers.
Now the Germans are showing their swords, and it is Taishan's crushing momentum, leaving no room for the Italians to wander. Either agree to a series of covenants of bereavement and humiliation to compensate the Germans for this time's teasing losses, or prepare to meet the anger of the German J Army.
Mussolini's first reaction when he heard the news was dizziness. Which group of army generals under his hand could resist the J Army in Hult's hand? If Italy has the ability to compete with the 200,000 German team, it will not be chased by tens of thousands of British soldiers in North Africa.
His mind kept flashing past records: Rommel and Guderian led four armored divisions to sweep France and beat France to kneel and beg for mercy. At the same time, Italian troops were beaten back by the French; hundreds of thousands of Italy The troops were hunted down by the tens of thousands of British troops from the Egyptian border and returned to Tunisia. Now the North African war situation Rommel is approaching the city of Cairo and is ready to take his marshal scepter at the right time; the Balkan Italian forces are beaten by Greece and Yugoslavia Was looking for teeth on the ground, and finally asked the Germans for help to get his face back.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his face. Once Germany and Italy were really wicked, he could see the beautiful scenery of the Germans surrounding Rome in a few days. His army generals probably heard the Germans calling the first The reaction was not to organize resistance, but to take someone to grab him and give it to the German master.
Two days ago, when he learned that the Navy did not go to sea, but released the British Mediterranean Fleet, the army generals met Mussolini collectively. At that time, the Italian Army Chief of Staff said to Mussolini in tears: " Once the German army enters Rome regardless of the relationship between the two countries, Italy can last up to 1 to 2 weeks ... The specific time depends on the speed of the German army to gather the captives and the speed of advancement, and has nothing to do with the resistance of the Italian army. "
From that time on, Mussolini knew that it would be more realistic to expect these army generals to fight to the end to create a miracle to defeat the Germans than to pray to God in the church for a lightning bolt to kill Akado. The navy supported his decision, but once the German army was convicted, the navy would give him a boat at most and send him to South America or North America. There are many similar success stories, such as Charles de Gaulle, the British royal family ...
Thinking about it, Mussolini felt that it was a better way: go to Berlin and kneel in front of the Akado boots, then nod no matter what the other party said, then at least His Majesty the Emperor Axis The position of the first loyal dog under many dogs is absolutely unshakable.
"Preparing it for me, I will go to Berlin in person. It seems that the German head of state, Mr. Akado Rudolph, has misunderstood us Italians. We must maintain face-to-face with the old in the attitude of maintaining the traditional friendship between the two countries My friends explain clearly. "Although people with clear eyes know that this time he went to Berlin to beg on his knees, but at least on the face, Mussolini had to say a lot of words.
Everyone took a long breath. Since Mussolini was soft, at least Germany and Italy would not meet each other. At least everyone could be glorious and rich. Let ’s talk about the glory of the Third Empire. Topics such as making a fortune. In a word, if someone goes to serve, then everything will be fine. As for who is going to pretend to be this grandson, that is not what everyone is worried about.
"Leader! Are you planning an airplane or a train?" A secretary in charge of Mussolini's itinerary asked in a low voice behind Mussolini. He must prepare transportation in advance, as for which one to use, it depends on the leader's own meaning.
"Fly ..." Mussolini just wanted to say that he was going to Germany by plane. He remembered the last time he went to Germany to participate in the inauguration ceremony of the Third Reich Financial Building. When the plane entered German airspace, he was surrounded by four fighters. I think it ’s safer to take the train to be safer. I heard that the German ’s radar can now find a bird ’s flight at a long distance. In case the other party wants to change to an obedient Italian leader, it ’s artificial. A plane crash came out.
Thinking of this, he decided to be safe: "The plane is still not ready. Go by train. In addition, you have to trouble the special envoy to go to Berlin again. Take the plane and leave tonight. Tell the head of state and say everything Good negotiation. "
Mussolini also wanted to open up, didn't he just want the training and command of the Italian troops? Laozi bachelor once, I will give as much as I want. In short, Italy is the country behind the German body, and it is a matter of course to pay a little for the benefits. As for the interests of other places, the Germans helped to put it plainly. If it is not a big deal, give it wherever it is. As long as it is not excessive, I will make up my mind to be an ostrich this time!
Mussolini, who has already made such plans, feels that since it has been done, it would be better to do all the scenes at once, and give Akado and the German generals a big face, so that the Germans are ready to ask for prices. At any time, somehow have to converge.
So he beckoned to his secretary again, and commanded: "Let the black shirt guard of honor prepare, this time with me to Berlin, Germany, and help me prepare 30 huge wreaths, and transport them to Germany by special train. Go, I want to lay a wreath for the fallen paratroopers and bow down to confess! "
He thought about it, glanced at the Navy Chief of Staff who had decided in private to blame it, and finally added another sentence: "The Navy Chief of Staff will follow me to Berlin, if the Germans ..."
"Leader! Don't say it anymore. After all, the situation is better than people. I will go to Berlin with you to see the head of state. If he can't swallow this tone, I will punish him in his own face and give the Third Reich an explanation!" In the end, I also knew that extending my head and cutting my head were also the same. The Navy Chief of Staff bowed his head and said: "I will bear all the responsibilities!"
