Chapter 622 The Last Side

~.《》~    

If the Nazis did not issue orders to France to collect food every month, the French dining table would not become empty. Hitler's words were just a bad joke for the conquerors to mock the conquered.

What's more, the German dining tables are not very luxurious now, and the war has seriously dragged down the German economy. This has led to the rampant black market. Even Mr. Huang has to go to the black market to get some consumer goods that are difficult to see on the market.

"In addition to the French, Chinese people are also very particular about cooking. It is said that Chinese cooking skills are the most complicated in the world. But what surprised me even more was that although Chinese people are very good at enjoying life, they are not as decadent as French. Mr. Huang, if I remember correctly, you were from a distant China back then, right?"

Hitler's last question made Mr. Huang's heart skip a beat. He tried hard to keep calm and nodded.

"Yes, Master Head, at that time, I was still a Chinese tea merchant."

Mr. Huang was thinking about Hitler's intention to say these words. Last night, he just returned to his apartment in the suburbs of Berlin and received a call from Himmler. Himmler invited him to see the head of state this morning, and emphasized that this was the head of state's order.

Mr. Huang felt strange at that time. Since the last time he parted in the Germanic bunker, Hitler had not spoken face to face to face for a while, but now he suddenly took the initiative to invite him to visit. This matter is a bit strange.

After weighing the trade-offs, Mr. Huang accepted the invitation because he knew very well that now was the best opportunity for Colonel Stuffenberg to operate. As a member of the operation team, he had to remain calm no matter what, so he followed Himmler to this manor in the suburbs of Berlin and met Hitler.

What surprised Mr. Huang was that Hitler now looked like he was aged in his teens.

Is this a stand-in too?

Mr. Huang was worried from the beginning that if Hitler in the manor was also a substitute, today's action would have to be cancelled.

However, when Hitler started speaking, Mr. Huang was basically sure that this person was Hitler himself. After dating Hitler for so many years, Mr. Q was still very familiar with the other party's expression when he spoke, and others could not imitate it.

"When it comes to China, I always have a feeling that I think that if it were not for the establishment of the Chinese Federation, then China would not have developed and became stronger so quickly, and then the situation of this war would definitely be completely different."

Hitler's next words made Mr. Huang even more confused. Should he talk about the development history of Hualian?

"Mr. Huang, please give me a fair evaluation. If Chen Jiongming was the head of Germany, can Germany avoid defeat?"

In Hitler's eyes, the Chinese in front of him had always been suspicious, but he would not take his anger at him because of the UFO. After all, when he was still an unemployed vagrant who was so down and idle in a bar, it was the man in front of him who gave him considerable help.

According to ancient Chinese sayings, this is called the work of the dragon, which is an object that cannot be disposed of at will. Although there is no such statement abroad, there is a similar concept.

As soon as Hitler's question was raised, the scene was immediately quiet. Bowman immediately lowered his head and looked at his knees, while Himmler made a stunned expression, and then stared at Mr. Huang's face.

"What does the head of state mean?"

Mr. Huang frowned, and the other party seemed to have no logic in his words, which made him a little confused.

"I mean, if it was not me who led the Kuomintang party back then, but Chen Jiongming, what kind of attitude would Germany stand in Europe today?"

"I can't answer this question. However, there is one thing I can see clearly. Compared with China, Germany's strategic disadvantages are too obvious. Germany is surrounded by industrial countries, and China has almost no industrial powers except Japan. Although Russia is also an industrial country, the problem is that Siberia is not suitable for developing large-scale industries. In other words, China only needs to defeat Japan to basically establish strategic advantages. However, Germany not only has to defeat France and Britain, but also Poland, Czech Republic and the Soviet Union. From this perspective, it is very difficult for Germany to establish strategic advantages. Although Germany's industrial foundation is indeed stronger than China, Germany has too many enemies."

Mr. Huang carefully analyzed that this was just his personal opinion. He had lived in Germany for many years and had paid special attention to information on this. Before the war, he concluded that if Germany wanted to lead Europe, it must win over a strong enough ally in the East.

The ideal ally should be China, but China has never formed an alliance with Germany. With just one island country, Japan, it is obviously impossible to attract enough military power from the United States and Britain.

Mr. Huang is just an intelligence officer after all, and his main responsibility is to establish a good personal relationship with Hitler. His views on grand strategy are really superficial.

However, Hitler had been with him for many years, but he didn't care. And the reason why Chen Jiongming was mentioned was because Hitler did not believe that the rise of Hualian had much to do with Chen Jiongming himself.

Compared with Germany, China's rise is more difficult. The quality of the national people is the main factor, and there are two behemoths, Japan and the Soviet Union, outside. However, the foundation of the agricultural country is that there is no hope of victory at all.

Based on the information collected, Hitler could see at a glance that Chen Jiongming was a kind of person who was a little weak in his bones, not cowardly, but he was timid in his work.

Although he has outstanding governance talents and political prestige, he is not the kind of monarch who can establish a foundation in a chaotic situation. As a German dictator, Hitler naturally knew how difficult it was to rejuvenate a nation-state.

After a few tests, he still failed to get more useful information. Hitler looked at Mr. Huang with some disappointment. He had been speculating that there should be a strong man, or a powerful organization behind Hualian, who constantly guided the development of Hualian, and thus the current situation was achieved.

But these are still speculations so far. Hitler also understood that the Chinese in front of him were just intelligence pieces arranged by him and would not know much useful information at all.

However, the play still needs to be performed, and he also wants to convey some information to the people behind Hualian through this Oriental "friend".

"Then what about your former head of state, Li Wansheng, has been leading the Hualian to prosperity at the beginning of his rise." Hitler said this with a bright look, like a proud lion, with a majestic aura heading straight in front of Mr. Huang.

Hualian's illogical jumping technological progress and several targeted responses to economic decisions in Europe and North America, as if he had predictive capabilities, set up a plan before the Great Depression and made a big profit from the United States and the entire Europe.

Although he was not re-elected due to his age, Li Wansheng also had prestige within the Hualian League. At the same time, his legendary experience during his reign caused political leaders from all over the country to study it repeatedly.

Of course, Mr. Huang also knew this, and his smile was a little helpless, "His honor, China's political system is somewhat different from that of Germany, and even from most countries. Li Wansheng is not a dictator, so it is difficult for me to draw conclusions in this regard."

"You mean, even if Li Wansheng leads, Germany cannot establish its strategic advantage in Europe? ... No, no. My idea is completely different from you. I think that if Li Wansheng leads Germany, then Germany will probably have unified Europe in 1940 and will permanently ensure this strategic advantage. My view is supported by evidence. Before the Great Depression, you China could accurately foresee the arrival of the economic crisis that swept the world. I think he may have a prophetic ability that ordinary people do not have, and this kind of person is superman."

Hitler's analysis surprised Mr. Huang. Hitler always thought he was superman, but now he admits that a foreigner is also superman, which is a bit strange.

Mr. Huang certainly knew that the Nazis were very interested in some mystical things, but to be honest, if someone had any "prophetic ability", Mr. Huang would not believe it anyway.

Li Wansheng ended his term early before the Great Depression and took the initiative to hand over power to the new head of state elected by Congress Chen Jiongming. This move is quite shocking, but domestic public opinion generally believes that this is Li Wansheng's noble and conspicuous action, but no one has ever said that this is Li Wansheng's retreat to advance in order to avoid the economic crisis that swept the world.

After all, the Great Depression was detonated in the United States after Li Wansheng stepped down. If anyone could foresee it, then he was either a god or had other ways to calculate the approximate time of the Great Depression, but is this possible? Obviously it is impossible.

Moreover, Li Wansheng did not hold military power, nor could he have the ability to hold military power. At that time, the generals formed a group and handled military affairs by themselves. Then Chen Jiongming took over the position of head of the Hualian League, and Li Wansheng gradually withdrew from the political stage and became a wealthy man, which made the dictatorship that many people were worried about did not happen.

In fact, it is not only foreigners who feel strange, but even many Chinese people themselves feel strange. In a country where military dictators are rampant, how did the Hualian prevent military personnel from interfering in politics?

However, the inside story of all this is not something that a small person like Mr. Huang can know, so he had to honestly express his opinion to Hitler.

The conference room was quiet for a moment, Hitler was pondering, and Mr. Huang frowned and thought. Bowman and Himmler were sitting with blank expressions until the footsteps of a general sounded.

"His Excellency, all the people who attended the meeting are here."

After saying that, the general of the National Defense Army glanced at Mr. Huang, and seemed to want to say something to the head of state, but it was not convenient to say it here.

"He is my friend, just say it." Hitler nodded, as if he had no concern at all.

In fact, Mr. Huang himself knew that his intelligence focus was to gain Hitler's trust and maintain a channel of conversation between China and Germany, rather than risking his life to inquire about intelligence.

Hitler also knew this. Although he clamored to declare war on China, the junction of the two countries was not peaceful until now, and he did not look like he wanted to fight.

Before the last moment, who is willing to do things the best?

"I just received the news that the Manstein Line of Defense was hit by a nuclear strike in the early morning of this morning, and it can be confirmed that the atomic bomb used in the attack was thrown by US strategic bombers."

The news brought by the general shocked all the Germans present. They did not expect that the Allies would take action so quickly.

“What is our loss?”

Hitler frowned and asked the general.

"The German Army basically lost no money because Marshal Manstein had issued a retreat order last night."

"What? Retreat order? Who ordered him to retreat? Now, where is Manstein?"

Hitler was furious. The news was indeed too shocked to him, even more shocked than Manstein's nuclear strike from the Allied forces because it seemed to indicate that someone in the Defense Forces had begun to blatantly disobey his orders.

Moreover, this man was also a Field Marshal, which also reminded him of another Field Marshal.

"Martin Manstein has transferred the Southern Army Command to Bulgaria, but in the specific situation, we still need to wait for the Southern Army's telegram. Now all the news we know is passed by the Turkish government."

"Convene a military meeting immediately"

Hitler stood up. Although he tried hard to suppress his anger, the extreme anger in his heart could be seen from his trembling hands.

Mr. Huang also stood up, and then he saw the German head of state reaching out to him, so he also reached out and held the other party's hand together.

"I originally had a lot to say to you, but now I have more important things to deal with. I'm very happy to know you, my foreign friend."

Hitler's last farewell sentence made Mr. Huang fall into deep thought again. What does he mean?

Before Mr. Huang could figure it out, he had been taken out of the conference room by a staff officer. The information he had just heard was a bit out of the ordinary, and he also knew that the next time was Hitler's strategic arrangement, which was not a category that outsiders could listen to.

After walking a few steps, the roar of the head of state had already heard behind him. But Mr. Huang was not sure who he was roaring at, whether it was Bowman or Himmler?

Considering Himmler's identity, was it because of some intricacies in his actions that he was caught by this secret police leader?

With a hint of anxiety, Mr. Huang followed the staff to turn around the corner of the corridor. At this moment, he saw a group of officers coming towards him. Some of the officers were people he knew, including Marshal Rommel, the "Desert Fox" who had been removed from military command.

Behind him was another acquaintance, Colonel Stuffenberg, and the colonel was carrying a bulging briefcase in his right hand, which was the briefcase that Mr. Huang handed to the colonel at the cake shop yesterday afternoon.

If the Colonel's actions go well, then the war may end soon, and this meeting may be the last meeting between Mr. Huang and Hitler. As for what was Hitler's original intention of summoning Mr. Huang to come here, it may become another historical mystery.

????????

The sunlight comes in from the window, reflecting the interior brightly and warmly, but not burning. It is also a rare enjoyment to bask in the sun after work.

Chen Jiongming sat in front of the window and received haircut services. Although the Han Dynasty was restored to the clothing and some sacrificial activities, China now has no habit of growing hair, and does not emphasize the concept of filial piety that hair cannot be damaged.

The location for the haircut is actually a study room in the head of state’s official residence. The barber who provided haircut services to the head of state was a folk master with superb skills. He has been serving Chen Jiongming for a long time.

It's almost noon and lunch break, Chen Jiongming decided to use this free time to sort out his hairstyle, because he had to go to several colleges and universities in the afternoon to hold discussions with teachers and students, and he had to be more energetic.

He returned to China from Cairo, Egypt the day before yesterday. This is not because the Cairo Allied Summit ended successfully. The meeting was full of differences and achieved some results, but some contradictions could not be resolved for a long time.

Anyway, China is just participating in it as an audience. After all, the two sides had a hard time fighting in the Pacific before, so there was no friendly visit.

The reason why Chen Jiongming participated in this international conference was just to show China's political status as a nuclear power. Anything that happened on earth must be approved by China!

The heads of state were trapped in Cairo for almost a month and were not allowed to split. They were a little tired. In desperation, the heads of state sat together to discuss and decided unanimously, and simply rested for a while, and waited for diplomats from various countries to reach a preliminary consensus in Cairo.

The heads of governments went to Cairo to sign an agreement, so US President Truman left Cairo first and returned to Washington. Chen Jiongming also left Cairo the day after US President Truman left, flew directly to China, and returned to Nanjing.

Chen Jiongming speculated that the reason why Truman was in a hurry to return to China was probably to participate in a very important military exercise. It is said to be related to missiles. This is not Zhao Bei's imagination out of thin air, but it is well-founded.

Some double-faced spies revealed the details of the US Army's missile test in the intelligence, which are true and false, but through careful analysis and contacting other sources of intelligence, the CIA of Hualian can basically be sure that the US military is indeed studying ballistic missiles.

In addition, we are also conducting research on miniaturization and lightweighting of atomic bombs. With the United States' industrial strength and scientific and technological strength, it is no problem to create practical nuclear missiles within a few years.

Foreign Minister Gu Weijun and Prime Minister Zhang Xiaolei were both worried about Chen Jiongming's speculation. They all suggested that more nuclear missiles be deployed as soon as possible to ensure strategic advantages.
