Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 84: Athens
Xu Jun likes the sea very much. When he was a Chinese college student, he would often go to the resorts along the coast of China during holidays to enjoy the sun, sea and beach.
After coming to this time and space, I came up to meet Dunkirk, which is a big beach, and there are people squatting all over, so I am happy to raise my hands one by one.
Next is the Strait of Dover. He stayed at the base near Calais for almost a month and a half, where he could not only experience the special French style, but also overlook the famous White Cliffs of Dover on the opposite side. Or lying on the beach while basking in the sun, while watching a large group of bombers pass overhead, this is not a casual sight.
After coming to Greece, Xu Jun discovered that compared with the three-foot-free English Channel, the Mediterranean Sea was like a beautiful girl raised in a deep boudoir. He had never seen such a clear and peaceful sea. The Greek official who received said that the Mediterranean actually has her violent side, perhaps to welcome the great head of state, but it has only become particularly tender and shy these days.
Xu Jun doesn't care about these flatteries. He just regrets that the season is wrong and he can't jump into the sea for a while, catch some famous red mullets and taste them, and imagine that he has become His Majesty Napoleon. However, the Greeks quickly satisfied his wish. Swimming was impossible, but red mullet was still available. The chef sent by the Greek royal family was very skilled and the fried fish was very delicious. In the end, the head of state faced the beauty of the Mediterranean, while tasting Napoleon’s favorite dishes, while drinking the French Champagne wine that was also loved by the emperor. The German head of state cherishes the memory of this great monarch who once shook the world. He will soon face the old enemy of the French emperor. The invincible French army was defeated on that land. Xu Jun believed that he would never become another. A Napoleon, he will not make the mistakes made by the predecessor in history again, and he is working hard to make up for those loopholes proved by history. For the upcoming war, he has spent countless thoughts and even used everything. , He firmly believes that the final victory must belong to him.
The Greeks completely welcomed the arrival of the German head of state with the posture of welcoming heroes. As a result, they gave the German head of state a grand triumph. The Greeks generously took out everything they had to entertain the Germans. benefactor.
Under the propaganda of the media, the Third Reich became a knight who turned the tide in the hands of the vicious Italian invaders and saved Greece from fire and water. The head of Germany is a saint who upholds justice and mercy and upholds justice and justice. .
Originally, the Greek people had a pretty good impression of Germany, but because of their marriage, the senior leaders chose to turn to the United Kingdom. On the issue of marriage, the Greek royal family has the style of the Habsburg royal family. The country is not too big, but it is related to most European royal families. The current king is one of the great-grandsons of the European grandmother Queen Victoria, as well as the Austrian and Prussian royal families. There is a certain blood relationship.
Compared with several existing royal families in Europe, the population of the Greek royal family is quite prosperous. Xu Jun believes that it may have something to do with the Mediterranean diet. The generations of Greek kings are full of descendants.
At present, the true ruler of Greece is Prime Minister Giannis Metaxas. What is interesting is that he turned out to be a **** royalist. After several abolitions, the Greek royal family has become a frightening bird. As for following the prime minister's words, he was willing to become a rubber stamp.
Since the end of World War I and Greece was forced to enter the republic, the domestic political situation has been in constant turmoil. In just 23 years, there have been 13 coups, the most recent one occurred five years ago. In that coup, the Greek royal family was successfully restored again, and George II became king for the second time in Athens.
Xu Jun feels that this country is really absurd. The Greek political arena was split into two factions. The liberals who support the existence of the royal family and the Republicans who support the republic. Both sides are your side and I will appear on the stage, taking turns launching the military. During the coup d'etat, the Greek people watched the excitement with enthusiasm, just like those spectators standing in the arena stands. It was not until Metaxas took the stage that this chaotic situation changed.
Metaxas was born in the military and he is not a power-loving person. As mentioned earlier, he is a **** royalist and has followed the royal family in exile several times.
Some people say that he initiated the military dictatorship purely by the situation at that time. At that time, the grassroots left-wing forces in Greek society were very active. Various trade unions and left-wing parties instigated strikes and riots from time to time. Many discerning people can see that in this A left-wing revolution in the country is imminent.
The royal family and politicians know very well that once the left wing comes to power, the end of the czar's family will be their example. Once the revolution breaks out, whether it is the king, the republican or the liberals, they will all die together.
The upper class in Greece absolutely did not allow this to happen to themselves, so Metaxas came to power, directly used force to dissolve the parliament, arrest and exile left-wing leaders, and completely suppress the signs of left-wing revolution in Greece, and wait until the situation stabilizes. Later, the dictator immediately turned his gun to the republicans and suppressed the group's biggest political opponents, thus continuing the Greek royal regime to the present.
According to the original history, after Italy failed to invade Greece, Germany, who could not stand by the side for a long time, would make a decisive move. The Greek army, which was beset with the Italian army, had just gained a little confidence, and then was beaten back to the prototype by the German Wehrmacht. The Greeks saw what is called a real blitzkrieg, what can be called a mechanized cluster, and the Greek army collapsed thousands of miles. , Was eventually occupied by Germany.
However, the prime minister did not see the Nazis ravaging his beloved land. His pharynx got cellulitis, which was a terrible bacterial infection. There was no cure at the time. Soon A bacterial infection of the blood caused sepsis, and he died in the Athens Hospital on January 29, 2011. Because of the dictator's merits to the allies, after the war, he was still regarded as the prime minister for life by the government, which caused many controversies among the people.
However, when history came to Xu Jun, he was just turned around. In a sense, it can be said that the intervention of the German head of state saved the sad fate of that king and prime minister. In history, this king still To be abolished once, ascended to the throne three times in his life, and finally died on April Fool's Day. As for that dictator, with the special antibiotic penicillin, cellulitis is no longer a terminal illness, and he can live very well. For a long time, watching how the German head of state changed the world.
Xu Jun really doesn’t have much demand for the Greek government. He only wants a stable Mediterranean environment. After the alliance with Italy and France, the entire Mediterranean is already under German control. For Germany, Greece says something. The unpleasant ones are not even chicken ribs.
This country has no mineral and energy resources, and no developed industry. Even agriculture is only below the average level. The people are scattered and the illiteracy rate is extremely high. There are some unruly mountain people in the north, but Quite difficult to manage.
Greece can neither provide the raw materials that Germany needs, nor can it provide qualified workers, even farmers can’t provide it. In Xu Jun’s plan, this place can only be used as a dumping point for industrial products, as well as European tourism and trade. Distribution center.
Greece's position on the Mediterranean route has certain advantages, but it is not indispensable. Especially now that the German Army has occupied the island of Malta, the transport fleet can not call at Greek ports.
Now that there is no country on the entire Mediterranean coast that can pose a threat to Germany, the value of Crete has become insignificant. So the German paratroopers didn't have to sprinkle Crete with blood, and the male Greek residents on the island also escaped a catastrophe because of this (described in detail above). Perhaps it is possible to organize a German airborne division to conduct a large-scale airborne exercise on the island to make up for the regrets in the real history. Xu Jun is going to go back and discuss with the command department. If there is that opportunity and time, he would be very interested to go there. Take a tour on the island.
This time Xu Jun came to Greece. One was that he was invited by the Greek royal family and government to participate in the celebration of the end of the Greek War. The other was that he was going to meet the leaders of several Balkan countries in Athens by the way. Xu Jun wants to re-establish the order in the Balkans~IndoMTL.com~The order established by Germany, he wants to show his absolute authority, so this Athens meeting is somewhat similar to the ancient Chinese princes alliance.
At the same time, Xu Jun is preparing to sign a series of secret agreements with these countries. He needs the Balkan countries to provide part of Germany's urgently needed resources and at the same time agree on a joint defense strategy on the Eastern Front.
Speaking of this group of Balkan scums, they don’t know where the many **** feuds come from. They may cause trouble in which rally. Who knows if there will be a second Sarajevo incident? Xu Jun The last thing I want to see is what happens.
At this time, we can see that the skeleton of Greece is strange. Not only does this country have no mortal enemies in the Balkans, but it has marriages with most of them. The meeting was held in Athens, and no one raised any objections.
At noon on November 16, amidst the enthusiastic cheers of hundreds of thousands of citizens of Athens, the German head of state stood on a two-wheeled horse-drawn chariot specially prepared for him by the Greek government, and brought his flag team into To the city of Athens.
