Due to the restrictions of the base group, Germany will not be able to launch an offensive in the Middle East and South Asia even if it resolves the financial crisis problem in the near future. However, due to this financial crisis, the balance of power between the Allies and the Allies is more inclined toward the Allies. Perhaps it is impossible for the Allies to go into full war with the Allies at this time, but if the Allies want to do something to do with certain countries, they are afraid that the Allies will be powerless? For example, this country called Italy! Xu Jie's concerns have finally become a reality today. Perhaps the Allies are not aware of this for the time being, but Xu Jie has to prepare first.

It is almost impossible to completely stop the Allies from taking action against Italy. China has no ability and no need to prevent Mussolini from controlling the Italian regime with the support of Germany. The former is a matter of capability and the latter is a matter of national interests and strategic, but it can try to delay Mussolini's time to take power. And it can try to get the Italian Navy out of the control of the Allies. The most important thing about Italy is its navy. These warships and well-trained personnel are far more valuable than the Italian army and industry. After all, this is the accumulation of decades of the Italian Kingdom. Italy has never been a land power, and is the industry + top + point + novel + industry? How to say it, it can only be said that the theoretical data of Italian industry is still a certain gap between the actual level of performance. So, just like two years ago, Xu Jie needed to start with the Italian Navy to reduce the impact of Mussolini's coming to power on the international situation.

In May 20+9, when the financial crisis intensified, China officially launched a plan called "The Road to Light", and the core of the plan was how to force the Italian Navy to escape the control of the Allies when the Allies carried out subversive activities against Italy. The entire plan was divided into three groups, namely the Italian group, responsible for coordinating China's support for the Italian Navy and various exchanges. The Allied State Group was responsible for consulting with the Allied State so that if an accident occurred, it would be possible to see if it could be done.

The last group is also the most critical. The largest group is the domestic military operation team. In this plan, Huaxia decided to send a fleet to the Italian Navy at appropriate times. "If anyone dares to stop our actions, then the Saipan incident is our code of conduct!" When someone asked about the bottom line of the military team, Xu Jie said this. In other words, Huaxia did not hesitate to have a head-on conflict with the other party when necessary.

"Is this really worth it?" At the planning discussion meeting, someone felt very confused when they heard that China was willing to make a feud with Italy and its allies. "Italy is just a second-rate power, and its trade ties with us are far less than those between China and its allies. We don't need to completely get into feud with a powerful group of forces for this?"

"It's not okay to not consider money. But it's not okay to just consider money! If Germany acquires the Middle East and South Asia, who can guarantee that they will not continue to expand to Southeast Asia? Who can guarantee that they will not embezzle our interests in the Middle East? When we lose the means to effectively check and balance Germany, who can guarantee that they will continue to be friendly with us? Germany began to hinder our exploitation and utilization of oil resources in the Mesopotamia several years ago. Then we can only continue to remain silent, waiting for one day Germany will be full and break with us completely, and then we want to come. Are there some things in the world that need blood and fire to solve? And if this is the case, it's better to take action before it is not full!" Xu Jie's attitude on this matter was very firm. No matter how much resistance is, he will definitely implement the entire strategy!

In addition to the reasons mentioned in the open, Xu Jie also has more far-reaching considerations. If China and the Allies can defeat the Allies and expel their power from the Middle East in the future, China will enter the Middle East to control the resources of the Middle East, which is almost the most perfect result. However, there is a problem that China is still a bit far away from the Middle East. In order to ensure China's dominant position in the Middle East, it must require the support of regional powers. Austro-Hungary is absolutely not possible. France is not allowed, because as a first-class half-country, it is also ambitious. Then in the future, Italy is the only country that is most suitable to control the Middle East with China. Italy has certain strength, but because of its limited strength and limited ambitions, so Italy is the best choice! From now on, China needs to make the direct relationship between the two sides further! Of course, if China and the Allies can't beat the Allies together, this plan will naturally be ruined.

This is the largest foreign action plan formulated by China since the military action against Russia in late World War 1. In Xu Jie's mind, this plan will also be a preview of a larger action plan in the future, so Xu Jie is very concerned about this action! "Old Lin, why don't you go to Italy first?" Looking at the elderly old guy, Xu Jie licked his face and said.

"You will reimburse all my expenses!" Lin Yongsheng glanced at Xu Jie and said. As a first-class general in the Chinese naval system, Lin Yongsheng had fought side by side with Tycho and others, and asked him to go to Italy to cooperate with the Italian navy to stabilize the situation in the Mediterranean. It would be better if he could stabilize it. If he couldn't, then consider other backup plans. "No problem, are there any other conditions?" Xu Jie didn't mind Lin Yongsheng's personal expenses at all. How much money can he spend alone?

"I also need an elite marine force. The Marines controlled by Tycho are still a little small and not enough. If you want to help them, maintaining the superior force on land is absolutely indispensable. You also need some activity funds. If necessary, you must bribe certain Italian officials and military leaders." Lin Yongsheng continued.

"The third and most important point is that we need to provide Tycho with an air force. The Italian air force is relatively poor in terms of scale and combat effectiveness, and many of them are supporters of Mussolini. At that time, not to mention helping the navy fight, it would be good not to reverse the situation. You should understand that relying solely on the navy's aircraft is not enough to support Italy's air defense. By the way, I also need a deputy who is proficient in air combat and naval aviation combat." Lin Yongsheng put forward the third condition.

"No problem, these will be arranged for you." Xu Jie was not surprised by Lin Yongsheng's request, which was necessary. "In addition, you can tell Tycho that the Flying Eagle aircraft carrier and aviation cruiser built by China for Italy will encounter aircraft, ammunition and related personnel. These are for free, and he doesn't have to pay a penny." Of course, this is not the simple generosity of China. Well, although the two ships combined together have nearly 130 various aircraft, which can indeed save the Italians a lot of money, but more importantly, both China and Italy need these two warships to quickly form combat effectiveness!

"I heard you want to stop financial aid to Italy?" After the request was met, Lin Yongsheng changed his mind and mentioned another thing. Although financial aid has nothing to do with military affairs, Lin Yongsheng believes that doing so will have an extremely bad impact in Italy.

"Then the Italians can't use our money to deal with us? However, although the financial assistance is less, we can provide the Italians with a large amount of agricultural products and daily necessities. We need to leave a good impression on the Italian people rather than give the bureaucrats a chance to speculate. These materials will not be given to the Italian government, but will be given to Tycho in the name of the individual. Then the navy will be responsible for distributing them. Moreover, most of these materials are actually prepared for those who support us. We cannot let Tycho have any worries." Xu Jie replied.

"It seems that you are not confident about Italy's prospects. Will we have to take the last step in the end?" After hearing Xu Jie's explanation, Lin Yongsheng smiled bitterly. "There is no way, the gap between the strength of the two sides is too big. We can only organize as much profit as possible to the allies, but we cannot completely block their offensive." Xu Jie sighed. "We must keep Vittorio, Tycho and the family safe. Thank you."

"I'm really worth it in my life. I first beat the Japanese, then the Russians, and then I took the Germans and Italians to beat the British and French. In the future, I might have to go back and fight with the Allies. From this point of view, I'm better than that." Lin Yongsheng quipped.

"What a pity, it was Lao Deng who beat Americans on Saipan back then, not you. If it were you, you might have become the first naval general in the world to fight against all the maritime powers." Xu Jie smiled. "However, because you have a good relationship with the US Navy, why don't you go to the United States first?"

"What a joke, wasn't Old Deng invited to the United States? He was the person who invited the U.S. Navy Department named him, so what am I?" Lin Yongsheng was also a little confused. Deng Shichang beat the Americans hard on Saipan. Why did the Americans still invite him? Because Lin Yongsheng didn't know that if he could not defeat his enemies, they would become friends.

"Both sides should prepare quickly. Once something happens, the Allies, China, Britain and France are not enough. Only the United States will be insured. And, what do you say? In fact, based on the current ideas of the US Navy, I am not optimistic about the performance of the US Navy on the battlefield in the future. So I let Sumo go together." Xu Jie shook his head and said. In history, the US imperialists could crush Japan with industry, but in this plane, the gap in national strength is not very large, it is hard to say that the American tube is not useful. Xu Jie has no high requirements. At least Sumo wants to teach Americans to realize the superiority of armored aircraft carriers!
