Chapter 397 European Battle Clouds: Visiting China for Help
,
spn Germany, Berlin.
Headquarters of the Third Reich, Hitler's temporary office.
At the beginning of 1946, after Hitler was assassinated again, he ordered the permanent office to be cancelled, and instead used a temporary office to appear somewhere in the base camp from time to time.
After the assassination attempt by a Nazi officer, the head of the Third Reich was horrified and even a little difficult to understand.
"Hi, Hitler!"[
Several Nazi officers walked into Hitler's temporary office, including Air Marshal Goering, National Leader of the SS Himmler, the head of the military intelligence department, and the Director of German Intelligence, Admiral Canaris. The new German General
Chief of Staff General Krebs and others.
Hitler raised his head from the pile of documents on the table and glanced at several people with his gloomy eyes, especially Air Marshal Göring, whose eyes were evasive.
He waved his hand and motioned for several people to sit down.
"Canaris reported to me again yesterday that the Allied forces' intention to open a second battlefield in Northern Europe has been very obvious." Hitler nodded to Canaris and said.
"Yes, head of state!" Canaris stood up after hearing this and said at attention, "According to our intelligence, this landing operation will be launched soon, especially when the Chinese general offensive in the Far East comes to an end, the Allied forces will be spared
All the troops, supplies and even fleets that came out were invested in Europe. The Chinese containment effect on the United States has dropped to its lowest point.
In addition to the ongoing fighting in Southeast Asia, the Chinese have temporarily stopped fighting with the Soviet Union, the United States, etc., which has caused a lot of pressure on us. Please tell me the specific situation, Chief of General Staff."
Hitler nodded to General Krebs, Chief of General Staff, who stood up and walked to the map shelf on the wall, pulled down the map of Northern Europe, and pointed his baton at the original Soviet territory near Finland in Northern Europe, which is now the German occupied zone, and said
"Judging from the current deployment of Allied forces, there are three landing sites that the Allied forces may choose, one in Finland, one in Murmansk, and one in Karelia.
It is not yet certain which place the Americans will choose as the landing point, but what is certain is that in order to implement this plan, the Allied forces have assembled approximately 1 million preliminary troops and more second-phase troops.
What makes the situation even more serious is that in addition to the landing troops, the Soviets have regrouped a force north of Moscow. Their goal is probably to attack the direction of Leningrad and meet the Allied landings. The British may take advantage of this.
Sweden, our intelligence organizations and aerial reconnaissance have all discovered that the British are gathering forces on a large scale, and they are likely to use Sweden as a springboard to the hinterland of Europe.
Once the Americans successfully land, the British land at the second landing site, and the Soviets launch a coordinated attack on the flanks, we are likely to lose Northern Europe very quickly, giving the Allies the ability to attack the heart of Europe.
Although we have sufficient troops to deal with it, the Allied forces have also begun to gather landing forces on the Soviet Arctic Ocean coast. It is believed that more than one million Allied troops from the Americas and other regions have landed."
The Chief of General Staff's explanation was not long and ended quickly. No one spoke, and even the usually arrogant Goering fell silent.
Hitler: "The Chinese created a conspiracy. They drove away the Americans, annexed the Far East of the Soviet Union, and connected the entire Far East with Siberia. Except for the northern region near the Arctic Ocean, which is still in the hands of the Soviets, the entire Soviet Union is now
Half of it is in Chinese hands.
These places are rich in minerals and fertile land, which has provided great help to the Chinese immigration and strategic resource extraction. They have obtained oil and various mineral deposits, and they have also announced the discovery of very large natural gas fields.
Now, people are surrounded by them and cannot hold out for long before they are wiped out. However, they used this as an excuse to let go of half a million US troops, two air fleets, and the huge maritime transportation that was originally restricted in the Far East.
Strength and fleet.
Now, all this has been transferred to Northern Europe, providing the greatest help to the Allies in opening up a second battlefield.
Goering, the performance of your air force is very poor, which makes me very disappointed."
As he was talking, Hitler, who was so angry for some reason, punched the table with a bang.
It turned out that with the launch of the Allied landing operations and the plan to attack Europe, the Allied air offensive in the direction of the English Channel and the Arctic Ocean turned from defense to offense step by step.[
In just three months, the Luftwaffe lost as many aircraft as the previous eight months combined. This shows the intensity of the air battle and the heavy losses.
Hitler knew very well that once he lost air supremacy, it would be difficult for the German Nazi Army to prevent this large-scale landing battle, and millions of Allied troops would continue to pour into Europe.
"Guerrillas everywhere must be wiped out, no matter how huge the price is. Himmler, you must allocate more troops to take charge of this arduous task."
As he spoke, Hitler, who was very quick-thinking, turned his attention to Himmler. Now there are dozens of guerrilla groups across Europe, with a total number of more than 100,000 people. These guerrilla groups have fought
They ran away everywhere. Unlike the early smooth establishment of the Nazi regime, as the war became more rigid and the decisive victory against the Soviet Union was not achieved, many rebels appeared in various places.
Hitler even suspected that some of the servitor troops had a tendency to rebel, so he transferred them far away, and even sent a large number of these troops to the Soviet front line as cannon fodder.
However, this approach intensified the conflicts among various countries. The Nazi regimes in various European countries also made some different voices and began to show signs of opposing Hitler.
In short, everything made Hitler feel very unhappy. Although Germany had occupied almost all of Africa and the Middle East, he was still not happy.
"Führer, our latest me265 jet fighter is expanding production. Due to the lack of experience in large-scale jet air combat, we can only hastily fight when we are attacked by powerful jet groups from the United States and Britain.
We have changed our strategy and will concentrate our forces and use our most advanced jet fighters to regain air supremacy over Northern Europe and the English Channel."
Göring felt sweat on his forehead and felt very anxious. Although the air force performed well on the Soviet battlefield, that was because the Soviet air force was already very weak. Even with the addition of new jet fighters aided by the US military and jet meters produced by the Soviets,
They still succumbed to Germany's huge aircraft fleet.
However, in Northern Europe and the northern region of the Soviet Union, more and more US military air fleets began to arrive. Even the British had already mass-produced jet fighters obtained from the United States and the Hurricane jet fighters successfully developed with the help of the Americans.
, unified actions, and air superiority over Germany was gradually formed.
On the other hand, the German Air Force began mass-producing the Me262 jet fighter very early, but it has been used in a sporadic manner, eventually leading to the loss of more than 2,000 Me262s with immature technology in a few years.
Although Germany currently has more than 3,000 me262 and me264 jet fighters, their performance is not satisfactory. The number of the latest me265 is less than 500, and these aircraft were scattered all over the country just three months ago.
Used on the battlefield.
"We must concentrate our superior fighter jets and firmly control the air just like the Chinese did."
Hitler was very dissatisfied and even wanted to reprimand Göring loudly, but he also understood that the situation in the Luftwaffe was not caused by one person, but by the long-term superstition of large-scale aircraft fleets, which led to the production and production of expensive jet fighters.
Deployment is slow. "The Chinese were able to gather thousands of advanced jet fighters at one time to drive away two American air fleets and the entire Far East air force. This is something that our German Empire can learn from."
When it comes to the performance of the Chinese air force, Hitler had to be convinced.
Later, Hitler discussed the military response plan and preparations for anti-landing operations with these important officials. The entire plan was actually very large, known as the "Nordic Barrier."
During the entire anti-landing war and the Nordic defense war, the German army plans to use 2.2 million German troops and more than 2.7 million servants, more than half of which will be composed of Italian troops.
The entire plan was to deploy heavy troops in an attempt to counter the Allied landing operations.
Finally, Hitler issued an order.
"I decided to send a special envoy to China again to discuss some key issues with Zhang Shusheng. If the Chinese are willing to make concessions and are satisfied with the conditions we have offered, then we will be able to deal with the next situation more easily.
.”
Hitler was determined to win the help of the Chinese even if he had to pay a huge price.[
Although he often had some conspiracies against China on the issue of World War II, he had to make concessions again and again for the sake of Germany as a whole and for the sake of World War II.
Soon, a secret negotiation team set off for China. In order to buy as much time as possible, they even flew directly over the edge of the Soviet-German battlefield and landed at the airport in the Chinese-occupied Central Asia, that is, Huo Qubing Province.
Then transfer to Hanking, the capital of China.
After Hanking was informed by the Germans, he also made arrangements early, at least formally attaching great importance to this negotiating team.
"Chairman, the German negotiating team has arrived at Hanking Airport and is staying at the Hanking Hotel."
"Huh? It seems that the Germans are very fast."
After hearing Mao Yunxian's report, Zhang Shusheng smiled and put down a newspaper in his hand. It introduced the Republic's extensive afforestation activities in the western region and deserted areas. Hundreds of thousands of people were recruited to the northwest as afforestation workers.
, began to start artificial afforestation.
This is also the result of Zhang Shusheng’s recent order to officially launch a large-scale desert and barren area transformation plan.
"Let them stay for two days first, and the people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will talk to them first. Senior officials should not be in a hurry to see them."
