Battle of the Third Reich

The meeting was held for an hour and a half, and the officers at the meeting reached an agreement. At least the attitude of the Army Command was very clear. In view of the consistent performance of the Navy and Air Force that Xu Jun was only a forward-looking, he would not think about the decision of the head of state. Any other ideas. During the meeting, only a few preliminary response plans were discussed, because the detailed report at Blumberg had not yet been handed in. Without knowing the specific details of the incident, no further detailed plans could be made.

At present, it should be certain that the scale of the incident should not be a planned invasion, but only a border conflict. It is not clear whether it is premeditated. The problem is that four countries are involved and the location of the conflict Within the territory of the French Indochina Federation, it is the Japanese army that occupies Chinese territory that provokes the conflict, and it is the French colonial forces and the German SS that launched the counterattack. The conflict between the little one and Deng involved the four parties of China, Japan, Germany and France, and they can all join in a table of mahjong.

Another point of special attention is that the conflict between Japan and the Western powers on the territories of the third countries that became colonies cannot help but remind people of the Russo-Japanese War of that year. Although Japan relied on geography to win, it was because of the time The pressure of the world powers has lost the dividends it deserves, and finally made the Japanese understand the essence of the European imperialists, and began to march toward the path of militarism.

At that time, due to the strength of the European powers, Japan had to bow its head in front of the strong in the face of pressure. However, the European war has just ended, and the military strength of European countries has been severely weakened. No one can make an accurate guess about what kind of reaction will happen after the incident.

However, no matter how the Japanese respond, Xu Jun will not change the decision that has been made. This is not a matter of intention, but the current situation forces him to show a tough attitude. This is not a simple diplomatic issue, which involves the implementation of a large number of follow-up plans and the completion of strategic ideas. It must not affect the progress of the whole plan because of the relationship between Japan and Germany.

This is a grand strategy related to the life and death of Germany and the entire nation. Xu Jun has finally reached this stage and has completely lost the possibility of retreating. In front of him, he can only move forward, carrying the responsibility and dream of the entire country and continue to move forward until The day of final victory or demise comes.

The efficiency of the German navy was very high. Immediately after receiving the phone call from Colonel Phil, he issued an assembly order to all German ships operating along the coast of Africa, including fifteen surface ships including two camouflage assault ships and six ocean-going ships. The submarines were all sailing towards Singapore at this time. This will be the first public response made by Germany. Next, the Air Force’s fighter squadron will also begin to move towards northern French Indochina, will participate in the patrol operation into the airspace of northern French Indochina, and at the same time order the Special Envoy to begin liaison with the Chinese side and establish a slave French in advance. Indochina's air transportation to China's inland is convenient for members of the mission to travel between the two places.

After the meeting, it was almost lunch time. Xu Jun left Brauchic and Halder together for lunch. The two German senior generals showed a flattered look. Xu Jun knew that they were just using this Attitude to declare personal loyalty.

"Beittan just knew about it." Xu Jun opened the napkin next to the plate.

"My head. I'm not surprised at all. This is their usual efficiency." Halde said happily to Xu Jun. A waiter stood beside the chief of staff and was approaching him. The golden white wine was poured into the glass.

"Bei Dang still wants to test my attitude. After hearing my affirmative answer, I can hear him obviously relieved." Xu Jun picked up the knife and fork and began to cut the food.

Today's lunch is French fried cod, the ingredients are very tasty. The chef was also very attentive. The browned cod fillet was drizzled with fresh lemon juice and decorated with mint leaves.

"My head of state. When will the French prepare to protest to Japan? Franz, can you pass the salt to me, thank you." After receiving the salt shaker from Halder, Brousich sprinkled the cod fillet. A few grains of sea salt were put on, and then the fish was scooped up and put into the mouth.

"Betan said it is best to be consistent with our diplomatic actions. He is really a cunning old fox. In fact, he has been eager to protest in his heart. This involves the authority and reputation of the country. Now the French can't tolerate their own country. The honor is lost again, and the special opponent is still the Japanese who have been despised by them."

"Without the support of Germany, those arrogant Gaul chickens can only yell a few times. Where else do they have the strength and courage to fight against the Japanese army?" Halde put down his knife and fork and took a drink from his wine glass. .

"Without your previous vision, the French had only 18 regular infantry battalions in French Indochina at this time. This force had to defend the entire country and the complex border. The scattered forces could not resist Japan’s Military provocation." Brauchic complimented.

"The vision of the head of state has always been my most admiration. My head, this time the action of Marshal Blumberg’s special envoy will definitely attract the attention of the Japanese side. Will it affect our plan? I am worried that they will go to China The itinerary will be obstructed by the Japanese." Halde expressed his concern.

"When does the German diplomatic action require the consent of the Japanese, and they have not yet provoked the guts of Germany, they also need to buy the resources and equipment they desperately need from Europe."

"The Marshal is right. The mission of the Special Envoy involves Germany's own interests. We don't need to take care of the Japanese's ideas." Xu Jun tore a piece of white bread, dipped it in fish sauce and put it in his mouth.

At this time, Japan had a lot of business dealings with Europe. At that time, Japanese products were world-famous for their poor quality and crude manufacturing. In addition to locally produced production materials, domestic industrial products could not open the European market at all. Japanese products that have no international competitiveness can only be dumped into the more backward Chinese market. These products are inferior goods with poor design and rough craftsmanship in the eyes of Europeans. In backward China, they have become cheap and advanced advanced products designed by Toyo. The dumping of Japanese goods has had a great impact on the national manufacturing and commerce that has just started in China.

The conflict of interest forced Chinese businessmen to launch a counterattack. In addition to Japan's wanton involvement in Chinese affairs during the period between the late Qing and the early Republic of China, it committed a lot of atrocities against China. The Chinese people have long accumulated this greedy and brutal neighboring country. Too many negative emotions, just a few Mars can ignite the people's patriotic enthusiasm. Not to mention the fact that there are dedicated people who are pushing all the way behind. The one thing the Japanese were most afraid of hearing during that time was boycotting Japanese goods. Every time China set off this trend, the Japanese economy would immediately fall to the ground.

The Japanese Army provoked the war of aggression against China. Apart from its own strategic purpose, there was no strong encouragement from the major chaebols behind it. The Japanese merchants wanted to forcefully occupy the Chinese market by force, and they could dump their cheap goods to China unscrupulously. . However, market share is limited. Japan’s dumping affects not only China’s manufacturing industry, but also a large amount of foreign capital invested in China, especially trade firms in European countries. In the occupied area of ​​Japan, the Japanese forced to squeeze out the market by various means. European multinational business giants have long been dissatisfied with the insatiable ugly appearance of Japan, but most of the armed forces suffering from Europe are pinned to the homeland. In the distant east, some whips are unmatched.

So is it time for Europe to free its hands? Xu Jun’s answer is no, there are still a lot of things to be solved in Europe itself. Stabilizing the situation of the defeated country alone is not a problem that can be settled in a month or two. In the hearts of the people of all European countries, the war is over at this time, and people are expecting life to restore peace and tranquility before the war.

Only a few politicians can freshly realize that the threat has not passed, but is slowly accumulating. Therefore, in a short period of time, the domestic policies of various countries can only choose to obey public opinion. At this time, the need to stabilize society and rebuild order must not put too much pressure on the people, as it will definitely shake the hearts of the people.

So how to make the people realize that the threat of war has not disappeared without causing panic turmoil. For the propaganda media of governments of various countries, this will be an extremely difficult task. The conflict that broke out in Asia at this time is a good subject, and of course it must be fully utilized. Germany can also use this as a reason to accelerate the integration of military production systems in European countries.

At the same time, the French Army also has sufficient reasons for re-arming and expanding, and the reorganization plan of the European Joint Force can also be put on the table for everyone to discuss. You don’t have to worry about people’s resentment in all countries. Because the previous wars were too tragic, the anti-war voices of European countries are soaring, and war-fighting sentiment is pervasive. Thousands of war-stricken families have become determined pacifists. The hawkish politicians who were tough before the war were all liquidated by the people. For example, former British Prime Minister Churchill and French Prime Minister Renault have been distorted by the media into bloodthirsty war dealers and madmen who provoke war for personal gain. They have been spurned and hatred by the people of the two countries, and countless letters are sent every day. Go to the British and French government agencies and the prison where they are held, demanding that these two war tyrants who are victims of the country be sentenced to death.

Xu Jun happened to take this opportunity to reawaken the hearts of Europeans who are enemies and enemies. After all, Southeast Asia is not only home to the French, but almost all European countries have immigrants there. For example, the United Kingdom is currently the country that is most concerned about the situation in Asia. Especially after the defeat, the queen’s crown jewel India, its resources and wealth and huge manpower have occupied the domestic recovery and construction of the United Kingdom. With a decisive role, once the situation in Asia is found to be unstable, the British will jump out and ask for additional troops there.

As for the large number of British colonies and dominions, it turned out that when it was crucial, all but Australia and India were unreliable. In particular, Canada on the other side even wanted to fish in troubled waters and annexed British assets in the Americas. It turned out that Britain and Germany had signed an alliance treaty, and they didn’t need to do anything immediately. They climbed back to the sovereign state and knelt and licked the British parliamentarians. No, I wish I could kick the Canadian special envoy out of the Westminster Hall.

Because the sovereign state had full power to declare war and reconcile peace, after the British surrendered, a bunch of British dominions following the war also proposed a truce to Germany. Australia persisted until the end. When they were surprised to find out that only Australia was still in a war with Germany, the kangaroos, whose thinking was always half a beat, only found out that they were pitted by the suzerain, but in the future this became Australia. Themes that people show off to outsiders.

Now proud Australians will not know that the German head of state has set his sights on this vast and resourceful British dominion. Australia’s geographical location determines that if he wants to guard Southeast Asia, he is an excellent rear base. Once the situation in Southeast Asia Out of control, he can also be the best haven.
