Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 36: Military Discussion (2)

"Destroying is always easier than building, gentlemen. Please add the scriptures | 典|书友新群 9494-7767 {} Destroying a building only takes a few seconds to fire a few large-caliber shells. It can be done, but if you want to build a building, it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to complete it in a year or more. I believe all the gentlemen here understand this simple truth."

Seeing that the officers nodded frequently below in agreement, Xu Jun took a deep breath and continued.

"The dream of building a modern Roman Empire is indeed very tempting. But how was the Roman Empire established? Relying on force?

Indeed, the Roman Legion was invincible, sweeping across Europe, and the empire even extended to inland Africa and Asia.

Relying on the excellent tactics and equipment, well-trained soldiers and advanced military theory, the Roman Legion obtained a powerful force that far surpassed his backward and stale enemies. All this is the same as what we have now The advantages of grasping are surprisingly similar.

But does this mean that we can build a second Roman Empire with powerful force? My answer is no, it is absolutely impossible for us to accomplish this undertaking by force in this era. "

Xu Jun stopped. He put down the scepter in his hand and took a sip of water from the cup on the table. The officers all stared at him with breathlessness.

"I think some of the gentlemen present have already thought of the reason. I want to hear your views."

Xu Jun looked at the three giants sitting on the left hand side.

"My head of state, I understand what you mean. What you said earlier is also the problem that has been haunting me up to now. I am very worried about our current situation, my head of state."

The Chief of Staff of the Operations Department, Yodel said respectfully.

"Indeed, Marshal Brauchic and I know this too. This is why we are determined to follow you firmly. As we have always told our men, only you can clearly see the existence of the crisis. Only you can save Germany from danger and lead us to a true rise, my head of state."

Keitel quickly went on to say that the shrewd chief of staff of the high command added von Brauchic's share by the way.

"You have specifically talked to us about this issue, my head of state, I still have a fresh memory of the scene, and I feel about your insights and the keen and far-reaching vision and strategic thinking behind it Extremely admired."

Von Brauchich quickly climbed up the ladder.

"Now we do not have the strength to build what Hitler called the Millennium Empire. As the head of state said, this is just a crazy dream."

It was Harder who was talking, the chief of the army's general staff, who had just been given a lesson by Xu Jun.

Hard, who had a somewhat stubborn character, was frightened to death by the kind of strategic thinking that was ahead of the entire era and the analytical ability and judgment that exceeded his imagination.

He saw a guy who looked more like a Superman than Hitler. During those hours, His Excellency the Chief of Staff of the Army acted like a rookie student who had just entered the military academy. He was sitting in jeopardy and listening intently to the flick of the young head of state, ah no , It should be teaching.

When Halder walked out of the door of the head of state's office, His Excellency the Chief of Staff of the German Army had become the most staunch admirer and follower of the head of state of Reinhardt, following von Brauchitz and von. Keitel, Yödel, Guderian, Raidel, von Rondstede, von Blomberg, von Manstein, von Loeb, and von Bok were then deceived by Xu Jun with advanced knowledge The victim.

"My head of state, let’s talk about our army without mentioning the navy and air force. The questions you raised when you met me alone last time I went back and immediately started investigating. It really is just like what you said. That way, those problems not only exist but are very serious. If it were not for your reminder, we might still be immersed in the dream of victory in the French campaign. If we wait for these problems to be revealed in the next battle, we might have suffered beyond repair. Is a huge loss.

The Army Staff is formulating a comprehensive improvement plan in accordance with your intentions. I really want to stop time now. I hope that we will have time to start this plan. "

Yordel said earnestly, but his words caused another whisper from the generals below.

"I also hope to catch up, General Halder. Our enemy will not sit there waiting foolishly. We can only deal with future crises if we go all out and prepare for all aspects."

Xu Jun nodded and answered.

"I said earlier about the Roman Empire. The Roman Empire was not established by pure force. The Romans spent countless hours and energy trying their best to create a safe surrounding environment for themselves. They develop a strong space.

The Romans relied on wisdom and perseverance most of the time. Their endless diplomatic and political tactics were often more effective than the killings of the Roman legions.

The Romans knew at the time that force can only be used as a last resort, and force cannot solve all problems, and we now think that force alone can conquer the world, which is really a ridiculous thing.

Now, we have taken the first step. Although we are forced by the situation, we have reached the point where we can’t look back. We can only keep going. I just hope that we all work together to make Germany truly rise in Europe. And the world.

Before that, we must re-examine ourselves, re-examine the world, so that we can find the right direction for Germany to advance. "

"Hitler once said that the Germanic nation is the best nation in the world and should be the ruling nation, while the non-Germanic nation must accept the rule of the Germanic nation. In my opinion, this is completely a pipe dream .

We are indeed a good nation. As a good nation, we should have a clear mind instead of believing that we are a ruling nation.

In this era, it is impossible for a nation to easily enslave and rule another nation. The continuous development of science and technology has made the earth smaller and narrowed the gap between nations.

The difference between the culture and technology of the two neighboring nations by tens or even hundreds of years is unlikely to happen again. Relying on force and killing to oppress another nation to surrender was difficult to achieve in Europe a hundred years ago, not to mention now We are facing a Europe with a highly developed civilization.

I can hardly imagine that we can rely on force to make European nations who have long been accustomed to freedom truly surrender.

If we continue to consider the issue of European unification according to our original way of thinking, what I know now is that the occupation plan formulated by the German government is not as good as Napoleon that year. I can imagine the final result.

I know that all of you present here are high-ranking military officers. Everyone can look at this issue rationally. This is why the German team has not suffered from such crazy ideas.

I hope that this situation will continue, and it will bring the whole of Germany back to sanity. This is a task that military officials must bear in mind. "

"We are on the road of war in order to survive."

Xu Jun paused for a scepter and then said: "What is living space, and why do we lack living space? Everyone should have some understanding of this.

The failure of the last war made Germany lose all the influence it had in Europe. Germany was suppressed by Britain and France and their allies for two decades. They were afraid of Germany's re-emergence.

But stupid, they want to get more benefits from Germany, and the bankrupt Germany can't give them any benefits. Driven by this greed, they gave Germany an opportunity to rise again, and at the same time cowardly They also built a strong cage for Germany.

Germany is poor in resources. We do not have stable and reliable sources of resources. Everything is in the hands of the Allied Powers who are wary of Germany.

In order to regain dignity and honor, we must rearm ourselves. This was the ideal and belief of all Germans at that time.

In order to realize his crazy ideals, Hitler had to re-arm Germany. After he came to power, he eagerly wanted to turn his ideals into reality.

However, to arm ourselves, we must obtain more resources. Of course, the Allies will not help us rearm ourselves. They don't want to see Germany's re-emergence.

If they regard Germany as a threat, we will lose most of the source of resources, and Hitler’s national economic policy makes our originally narrow import channels narrower. This is what he called the crisis of German living space The essence of this is also the best reason for him to accelerate the pace of rearming Germany.

So barren, we started wars in order to seize resources to expand our sphere of influence. To win the war and protect the fruits of the war, we must continue to grow the army, and to grow the army, we must continue to seize more resources, so we continue to launch In another war, we fell into a terrible vicious circle.

In the end, the fear that the Allies might interfere in our actions and the hatred accumulated over decades made us finally unable to help launching the European campaign.

You should be very clear about our current situation. We can no longer follow the crazy plan made by Hitler at that time. It is killing ourselves.

We can’t get the living space we need with our existing power alone. Let’s not even want to enslave any nation. If we do that, we will incur attacks from various quarters. Politically, Military, economically, in any field that may harm us, our hidden enemies will not give up this opportunity to attack Germany grandiosely.

And you all know how powerful the resistance against oppression will be, because we ourselves are the best role models.

At that time, unless you kill all the rebelling nations, you will never want to quell the flames of resistance. If you also add the intervention of foreign forces, when those hidden enemies come out behind the scenes and take the opportunity to attack Germany, that is The beginning of the disaster, because weak enemies will not dare to challenge us, this struggle is likely to evolve into a protracted and bitter battle.

Previous experience has made us soberly aware that it is best not to fall into a protracted war in Germany. Our existing forces cannot guarantee that while fighting against powerful enemies, we can extinguish the flames of resistance in the rear and protect the smooth flow of resource channels. Steady, I do not doubt your determination to be the enemy of the whole world for the sake of Germany's revival, but determination and reality are two different things and cannot be confused.

So, what we need to do now is to do our best to build a real living space in Germany, a stable and safe living space, before other countries with ulterior motives intervene in European affairs. Please remember, whether it is Political or military, both must be stable and safe. "

"My head of state, now I think all the gentlemen present here have understood what you want to tell us, and you have shown us clearly the crisis that will befall Germany. This makes us more determined to follow you I thank God for allowing us to fully support you instead of Hitler. I thank God for giving us a sober and wise leader, because only you can lead us out of the predicament.

Please tell us what the navy should do at this time, what difficulties we will face, and the imperial navy will obey all your orders as always and eliminate all apparent and potential enemies. "

Navy Commander-in-Chief Raidel finally delivered his first speech at this meeting, and by the way, he opened his posture to express his determination to be loyal to the end.

"I'm about to discuss with you the future strategic vision of the Navy in detail~IndoMTL.com~When this regular meeting is over, I will meet you and the members of the Navy Command and several fleet commanders individually. Marshal Ryder, I Thank you very much for your loyalty to the empire and to me personally. I will always remember this."

Xu Jun nodded approvingly to Raidel. It seems that the sweetness to the navy really made the commander-in-chief of the navy satisfied. Even in the face of Marshal Hitler Raidel, he never said such a nasty statement before.

"My head, our air force is the same. You don't need to doubt the infinite loyalty of the Luftwaffe. As long as you point out the direction, the Luftwaffe will eliminate all enemies for you without hesitation."

Milch, the current deputy commander of the Air Force, finally couldn't help speaking. Due to Xu Jun's hard work, the imperial aviation minister, who had been a bit domineering before, is now a lot low-key.

"I understand, General Mirch, I am full of confidence in the Air Force." Xu Jun smiled and nodded. Mirch immediately felt much better, even his waist seemed to be straighter.
