Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 176: Sorrowful Spain
Mediterranean turbulence, the situation changed severally overnight, and the whole process was full of all kinds of drama, shocking the spectacles of many observers. At this time, the precautions of the German head of state were rewarded at this time. After a series of actions, the initiative was once again in the hands of the dictator.
Just when the Venetian Palace and the El Pardo Palace were in a mess, Xu Jun leisurely enjoyed his dinner accompanied by Riddle. On the broad lawn of the Star Hotel, the tent that the head of state wanted has long been set up. As the sun sets, there is a gentle breeze blowing on the lawn. A group of high-ranking Nazi officials gathered here and raised their glasses to congratulate the head of state on his another great victory.
Xu Jun maintained his excellent demeanor and demeanor. The dictator moved closer and closer to his predecessor. He moved from the black hand behind the scenes to the front of the stage. After half a year, he has become The new generation idol in the hearts of the people of Germany.
This time it was indeed an unexpected event he hadn't expected. Although he knew the ambition of the Italian leader well, he underestimated the courage of the other party. Perhaps Hitler's toughness left some psychological shadows on the Caesar. When the head of state was alive, Mussolini had the courage to provoke Germany.
Von Steid's low-key performance has given the leader the illusion that the new head of the Empire is just an unknown Nazi junior, just a puppet introduced by the Nazi Party at the time. Hitler's death gave him a bit of confidence again. He thought he finally had a chance to raise his eyebrows and let the Germans taste the feeling of being forced to accept the fait accompli.
To be honest. Mussolini does have some cleverness. If it weren't for France, it might really make Germany suffer. But the most unlucky in the whole thing was not actually him. It was Francisco Franco who was successfully bewitched by him.
The savvy Spanish dictator could have stayed out of the situation and fished in troubled waters. From the very beginning, the shrewd Spanish dictator had a small abacus for both sides. In the original history, he really laughed from the beginning to the end. In order to win him over, or prevent him from being attracted by the other side, the two sides of the war continued to convey benefits. Even if the whole world knows what those Spanish volunteers are, no one will pursue it afterwards.
This time, the shrewd dictator made a rare miscalculation. It was precisely this mistake that made him regret for life. Mussolini has pitted a lot of people throughout his life. Franco will not be the last, but he should be the most unlucky one. Because at least Italy has directly joined the European war before, and Spain has just posed a little. I haven't done anything yet. Spain didn't even touch the side of Gibraltar, but still got a sap head on.
The direct lineage of the German head of state is like a wild horse running off the coast. The French not only opened the way, but also many troops joined this army. This force snowballed along the way, growing at an extremely terrifying speed. By the time Chen Bing reached the Spanish border, it had become a super cluster of more than twenty infantry divisions.
Franco found that he was almost in the middle of a plot. This kind of performance of the opponent can tell at a glance that after a long period of preparation, how could it be possible to have so many troops in a short day. And all of them are fully armed and full. The head of state in Germany is definitely not a simple character, and Petain from France seems to be well-deserved, and these two decent guys are obviously stunned. They should have already prepared for Spain.
France and Germany join forces. This is simply a nightmare for all small European countries. These two big countries have the strength to dominate Europe. I originally thought that France had just broken its spine, but now it seems that it has hurt its brain. It turned out to be a friend so quickly. This rhythm is a bit wrong.
What makes the Spanish dictator even more depressed. The other party remained silent from beginning to end, seeming to just put that terrifying army on the border. Let the Spanish visit. More than 400,000 soldiers, as well as a large number of tanks and armored vehicles, made Franco nervous and restless just thinking about it.
Before Franco could decide whether he should show his toughness or immediately kneel down to beg for mercy, a series of combo punches fell on Spain's face again. This time the French completely tore their faces, and it was Melilla, where Franco started.
A powerful and weird tribal armed forces suddenly attacked this Spanish enclave. The Spanish defenders on the border defense line were caught off guard. They collapsed under the overwhelming fire and force of the opponent. The Spanish citizens organized hastily. After holding on to the police for half an hour, they soon let the other party attack the city. These barbaric Papaer robbers immediately began their carnival in the city.
The local Spanish Phalange Party headquarters became the last stronghold of resistance, and everyone inside was slaughtered after it fell. The scene at that time reminds me of the holy city Jerusalem that was occupied hundreds of years ago. All shops with Spanish characters were looted. Spanish men who dared to resist were ruthlessly chopped off, and city residents, women and children kneeling down to pray Strap on horseback and take away.
What is puzzling is that, unlike previous similar attacks, these bandits did not light up even a fire. After almost emptied the city’s wealth, they were contented to evacuated the city with a load of spoils. , Disappeared in the vast mountains in the south.
If things stop here, it will be just a terrible tragedy. As long as the city and the port are still there, the Spaniards will soon be able to restore order and retaliate against the thieves.
The problem is that what happened next surprised everyone. A French foreign corps suddenly appeared on the outskirts of the city. French soldiers rushed into the city and began rescue operations. They provided first aid to the wounded and comforted the lost family members. Surviving people.
Some respected tribal elders suddenly stood up. On behalf of the surviving citizens, they asked the French to stay. They claimed that they no longer believed in the safety claimed by the Spanish and demanded the asylum of the French government. These old guys didn't even know where they were hiding when the attack happened, but at this time they suddenly became the backbone of everyone.
Their reasons seem to be super strong. The Spaniards are still far away in the Mediterranean. When they react to sending reinforcements, they don't know how long it will take. Who can guarantee that the robbers will not make a comeback during this period. But the French are different. When you leave this city, what is the place outside? It is French Morocco. From here to the Atlantic Ocean, the whole area is French.
The commander of the French Foreign Legion said that he can stay in the city temporarily. What about the specific follow-up questions? This will require a reply from Paris. This group of illiterate tribal elders handed over a touching petition to the French, expressing their hope that the French adults would consider the plea of local residents, and they looked forward to joining the French family. At the back of the letter was a thick stack of white paper covered with fingerprints of so-called surviving residents.
Franco learned of this terrible news the next morning. Along with the news, a telegram for help from the Ceuta Garrison was sent. They claimed to be surrounded, the outer defense line was breached, and the airport was occupied. The Spaniards in the city were in danger, and at least 100,000 Moroccans armed with various weapons gathered outside the city.
Franco started filming the crime in the office of the El Pardo Palace. There is no doubt about the mastermind behind these things. The French's greedy face was completely exposed, and he even used this method of not getting on the stage. He had never seen such a brazen person.
The unyielding Spaniards will not obey anyone or any government threats, even if they need to fight to the last person. Franco really wanted to shout this ironclad slogan to Petain, but his reason forced him to give up this decision that was tantamount to suicide.
Spain is no longer the great empire of the year. The country’s vitality was exhausted in the **** civil war that lasted for two and a half years. Almost a whole generation of brave Spaniards died miserably in the fight against each other, and those who survived faced it. It is a devastated country. Although the scars on their bodies have healed, the scars in their hearts are still flowing with blood and tears.
Spain can no longer bear a full-scale war. In this country with poor resources, even coal for power generation must be imported from abroad. This is also one of the reasons why he resisted the temptation to remain neutral. The life and death struggle between the two giants is not something that weak Spain can participate in. If you offend either side, Spain will be destroyed.
Most of the coal needed by Spain comes from Germany, and the British Empire controls the safety of coal transportation routes. Franco used his superb diplomatic skills to show goodwill to both sides, which allowed him to see as a bystander. This war is going on without any pressure from either side.
He also thought about participating when the victory or defeat appeared, and he could pick up some leftovers from the mouth of the final winner. Both of these giant beasts are worth a lot of money, and even a piece of meat scraps is long enough for Spain to digest.
Franco once secretly told Hitler~IndoMTL.com~Spain cannot be compared with the powerful Germany. If Germany can defeat Britain, then Spain will definitely consider joining the war. Hitler was very satisfied with Franco’s humble attitude. For him, it was just an extra knife and fork when the spoils were finally divided. Germany also needs a channel to purchase goods from abroad. Although Spain’s geographical location is relatively far away, Germany After conquering France, it will definitely border it, and keeping this external channel will definitely come in handy. The German head of state even forgot the unpleasantness that occurred in the tungsten ore trading before. After all, business is business, and Germany still has this kind of strength.
To this day, Franco doesn’t know if he is in a nervous state or the world has really become so fast. In the blink of an eye, the whole situation has been reversed, and the cruel reality once again has once again avoided the problem he has been avoiding. In front of this dictator, which side Spain is on.
