Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 346: Negotiation (Part 1)

The Junker 52 transport plane with the Eurasian Airlines black "Asia" logo slowly landed in the Gia Lam Airport on the outskirts of Tokyo (Hanoi) in French Indochina under a drizzle. During the period of Sino-German cooperation, German Lufthansa and China jointly established the famous Eurasian Airlines, with a total investment of one million US dollars, and the Chinese side accounted for two-thirds of the shares. So a batch of Junkers JU52/3M transport aircraft were used as German Part of Fang's investment has entered the operation team of China's civil aviation. Until 40 years, this kind of transport aircraft was still the best long-range transport model in China's civil aviation, and only a few DC2s owned by China Airlines could be regarded as her competitors.

During the years when Germany’s China policy changed, Eurasian Airlines was affected to a certain extent. Germany transferred back many key pilots and technicians from the company, which had a considerable impact on the company’s development. But now the situation has changed again. With the adjustment of Germany’s Asian strategy, this airline will become a very important link between the two countries. It will participate in the air traffic business between China and the colonies of South Asia. Enjoy the benefits, but it is enough to make it develop into a giant.

"They're here at last, and they are a full hour late." Lieutenant Colonel Hans von Ludwig lowered his head and looked at his watch, then raised his wrist and sent a message to the men waiting by the runway. Preparation gesture.

"Stand at attention!" The leader officer shouted the command.

For this welcoming ceremony, the Guard Brigade drew a platoon of soldiers, all of them were Germanic brawny men over 1.8 meters tall, fully equipped with SS salutes, black parade gowns, white armed belts, and arms wearing red and white circles. The black eagle armband, the white ceremonial thread clipped with silver thread on the chest, holding a 98K ceremonial rifle with a chrome-plated barrel, and a water bottle cartridge and a black tropical tomahawk hanging around his waist.

The plane taxied slowly to the guard of honor. The pilot opened the window of the cockpit and waved hello to the ground crew below. The plane has been flying between the two places, and the crew and ground personnel have long been mixed. It's overripe. At present, there are only Eurasian Airlines aircraft that dare to undertake outbound aviation business. Because the company's background involves German capital, the Japanese Army and Navy Air Forces will generally not launch attacks when they encounter the JU52 with the Asian logo. Eurasia Airlines has become the sole operator of the Kunming-Hanoi route, and it has made a lot of money on this important exit channel.

Two Vietnamese ground crews rushed to the door carrying a simple foot ladder welded by steel pipes and iron plates. The flight attendants on the plane opened the door and helped the ground crew to buckle the ladder on the threshold. In the trench.

"Start playing music." The conductor of the French military band saw the German commander's gesture, and quickly waved the command bell. The military band affiliated with the French colonial infantry Tokyo Infantry Corps played a lively welcome music.

"Colonel, let's go." Lieutenant Colonel Ludwig turned to face Colonel Eugene von Davidson who was standing beside him.

"Yeah." Von Davidson stuffed the monocle into the watch pocket, tugged at the hem of the military uniform, then straightened his chest and strode towards the plane.

At this time, the passengers on the plane had already started to disembark. The first to jump off was the two entourages, wearing grey Chinese tunic suits on the upper body, navy blue trousers on the lower body, and wearing the blue and white Kuomintang emblem on the chest. The two jumped directly from the door to the runway, with light figures and neat movements. Seeing that shàngqù was obviously a practice. It's a pity that the Germans don't have this concept at all. They only wonder why this person has a ladder and doesn't use it, so he just jumped down.

Two attendants guarded the door, carefully supporting a somewhat wealthy middle-aged man to fall to the ground by stepping on the ladder. This person is the famous Confucian God of Wealth Kong Yongzhi. He holds the financial power of the state government. He is regarded as a confidant by the chairman and a prominent figure who relies heavily on his right hand.

Seeing that it was still drizzling in the sky, another attendant who got off the plane opened an umbrella for it.

"Put away the umbrella." Kong Xiangxi pushed away the secretary's umbrella.

"kànkàn, none of the Germans are holding umbrellas. In this case, you must pay special attention to the state system." Kong Xiangxi whispered.

"Hi, Reinhardt! Welcome to Indochina, Mr. Minister." Colonel Davidson walked up to Kong Xiangxi, bowed to Kong Xiangxi with a neat gesture, and then extended his hand to Kong Xiangxi.

"Hello, nice to meet you." After the accompanying translator and interpreter, Kong Xiangxi quickly shook hands with the other party enthusiastically. Kong's English bùcuò, German is totally unacceptable. The last time I went to Germany to meet Hitler, it was all Translation by Chen Jie, the Ambassador of the Government to Germany.

"I am the adjutant of Marshal Blumberg of Germany, Colonel Eugene von Davidson, this is Lieutenant Colonel Hans von Ludwig of the SS~IndoMTL.com~You and yours The Attaché’s security work during his stay in French Indochina will be directly in charge of the lieutenant colonel and his subordinates.” Davidson introduced to Kong Xiangxi.

"Hi, Reinhardt! Good afternoon, Mr. Minister." Lieutenant Colonel von Ludwig saluted.

"Hello, nice to meet you, Lieutenant Colonel." Kong Xiangxi enthusiastically stretched out his hand to shake hands with the SS Lieutenant Colonel.

The last time he visited Germany was 37 years ago. It was at the peak of the Nazi Party’s activities in Germany. Hitler had just created several political, economic and military miracles in succession. He liked to show the Third Reich in front of outsiders. majesty. Kong Xiangxi was deeply impressed by the strong military appearance of the German Army and Hitler's Guards at the time. When Chairman Chiang was ready to declare war on Germany in 39 years, the most fierce opposition was the Minister of Finance. Fortunately, the arrogant and arrogant British directly rejected Jiang Zhongzheng's temptation proposal, otherwise the government would now face the European coalition armed to the teeth.

"Mr. Minister, please come with us. We have prepared the vehicle. Now we will send you and your entourage to the residence for a rest." Colonel Davidson made an inviting gesture. A line of glittering luxury cars drove to the tarmac.

"Thank you very much, Colonel." Kong Xiangxi smiled and nodded in approval.

Davidson and Kong Xiangxi got into a Mercedes-Benz in the middle, and the rest of the entourage were put in the other vehicles.

Lieutenant Colonel Ludwig sat in the co-pilot position of the leading barrel car, extended his arm and made a forward gesture. Six two-wheeled motorcycles and two three-wheeled motorcycles that were responsible for clearing the way passed the barrel from both sides. The car roared towards the airport gate.

Suddenly something happened at home today, I took the time to write this point, the number of words is a little less, and I will fill it up with a large chapter tomorrow. (To be continued.)
