Chapter 289: Leading the Way Party (2)
In the face of Raeder, the commander in chief of the navy, and Ghisling, who was full of loyalty to Germany, was finally able to pour out his long-thinking plan without reservation. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Norway has thousands of kilometers of coastline and hundreds of ports, and on the surface it seems that it is difficult to conquer in one fell swoop because of the dispersion of power, but in reality, the population, economy, army, and material reserves of the whole country are concentrated in one-sixth of the southern territory. As long as they take control of the five important southern port cities of Oslo, Kristiansand, Stavanger, Bergen, and Trondheim, as well as Narvik in the north, the regular Norwegian resistance will be choked and will eventually surrender under siege......"
"Colonel Sundlo, the current commander of the garrison of Narvik Harbor, is a close friend of mine from my time as an officer. He had long been enthusiastic about your head of state and National Socialism, and at the same time deeply hated the incompetence and weakness of the Oslo government. With a letter from me, he will immediately be honored when your army reaches Narvik. Lisa, commander of the 5th Division stationed in Trondheim, was also a close associate of the 5th Division that I promoted during my tenure as Minister of Defence. His political position is absolutely reliable, and he will certainly not fire a single shot at your army at that time. Therefore, there are only four remaining locations that your country really needs to capture by force. I also have a group of comrades in those places who will try to slow down the resistance of the Norwegian army and provide guidance on the way to your army when they land......"
More than 95% of the Norwegian government's gold, foreign exchange and foreign bonds are concentrated in the capital, Oslo. If the situation is not good, they can be transferred by the government at any time. Norway, although not a big country, has stored about 50 tons of gold over the years, which, together with other foreign currencies and bonds, is worth no less than $150 million. If this wealth were to be transferred and eventually fall into the hands of the British, it would be particularly detrimental to your country's war. Therefore, if possible, it is better for your army to capture Oslo at the first opportunity. At that time, I will personally lead your army to mothball the Norges Central Bank and find the place where the gold is stored......"
Hearing Ghisling tell him everything about Norway, and also stood on the German standpoint with great intimacy, planning the best blueprint for the German army to advance north, Raeder's last suspicion about the person in front of him disappeared. No spy would do this in order to gain his trust, and this is a clean sale of the Norwegian people! The stern expression on Raeder's face quickly melted like ice, and his gaze at Quisling was full of joy and gentleness - although this man was the ultimate traitor to be found in the world, he was undoubtedly an indispensable and great help to Germany as it prepared to attack north!
"Dear Mr. Quisling, you are a loyal friend of the German Empire." With a happy smile on his face, Raeder praised Quisling without hesitation. Joyful, Ghisling, who had received the affirmation, humbly and flatteringly, said: "It is the privilege of my life to be able to serve the great German Empire. If your country can thwart their plot, all of Norway will be grateful to you and to Führer Hitler. ”
Raeder's heart twitched slightly, and he had a new understanding of the lower limit of discipline of the person in front of him. If Germany did occupy Norway, all kinds of underground resistance would inevitably emerge: because the German model of rule, although far less brutal than that of the Soviet Union, in which hundreds or thousands of people were hunted and shot, was also downright authoritarian and terrifying. The pervasive Gestapo watched over every aspect of the state's functioning, using electric batons and concentration camps to intimidate all rebellious individuals who dared to go against the will of the government. To hell with the fact that the rich and loose Norwegians can accept this strict control from Germany!
However, this issue is not on Raeder's agenda. As the commander of the navy, he only hoped to use the Norwegian ports for his own use, and as for how to manage the country, he had Flick, Ribbentrop, Himmler and others to consider. What's more, there is a Quislin in front of you that can be utilized. The German government could have pushed Gisling to the front as a puppet to silence the revolt in Norway. Judging from the leading nature of this man, he will definitely spare no effort in internal suppression: because without eradicating the anti-German forces in the country, Gisling, who introduced German troops into Norway, will not be able to whitewash himself politically.
On 11 December, Raeder introduced Quisling to Hitler. He fully recognized the role of the Norwegian traitor and hoped that the Führer would dig deeper into Quisling in the field of politics and intelligence. And with his sincerity and ingenuity, Quisling also made a reliable impression on Hitler. The latter waved his hand before the meeting and gave Gisling 200,000 marks as funds for the development of his "fifth column" in Norway. Hitler threw out the temptation that Gisling could not resist the most: if he worked hard to build up his team and serve the German invasion of Norway, he would be the all-powerful prime minister when Norway was occupied.
The sun was shining, the sky was blue, and in a wide courtyard covered with frost and snow, Fang Yan was running and playing with his daughter Alice with a smile on his face. The nearly 6-year-old Lori was wearing a thick winter coat, and her delicate face was full of excitement and joy at the moment. She mischievously threw the snow ball secretly pinched in her hand at the father beside her, splashing a large piece of flying silver white on the other party's body; When the attacked father bared his teeth and claws to take revenge, Alice immediately flew away with her calves, leaving only a series of childish and clear smug laughter, and the bright crescent moon that had narrowed into a slit.
Not far away, under a pine tree, Sylvia quietly looked at the happy father and daughter in front of her, and with their constant laughter, her heart became happy and happy.
Five days ago, Fang Yan finally returned home for the second time during the war, which immediately made her overjoyed, and wrapped Fang Yan's body and mind with all the warmth and tenderness. At this moment, Sylvia's heart is full of happiness, although her husband has not always been by her side, and the supplies in Berlin during the war are far less than that of her hometown Milan, which is extremely prosperous, but the consistent love he shows for himself and his children makes Sylvia feel another deeper and purer spiritual baptism, and thus comprehend the true meaning of a higher level of happiness.
Little Alice was full of vitality, but after all, she was still a young child who had not yet entered school, and after running and frolicking with Fang Yan in the courtyard for more than ten minutes, her tired cheeks were red, her breathing was short, and she couldn't be naughty anymore. Sylvia hurriedly led her daughter into the warm house, carefully wiped the sweat off her body, and changed her into a new pair of dry underwear. Seeing Fang Yan approaching, Sylvia glanced at him with slight disgust and said, "Honey, why can't you pay attention and ask little Ellie not to do too much exercise?" Now that the temperature is so cold outside, what if my daughter catches a cold because of sweating? ”
Fang Yan held his wife's slender white hand and said with a smile: "Xiwei, isn't this you?" The kids will certainly not have any problems. What's more, I don't want to disappoint Alice in any way. This time I could hardly guarantee how long I would stay at home, and the marshal and the Führer might suddenly assign me a task, as they had done last time, and leave me for months. So as long as Alice likes it, I'll do my best. ”
"Daddy is the best for Alice." Hearing Fang Yan's words, the little guy was very happy, she pulled Fang Yan's sleeve and motioned him to squat, and then kissed Fang Yan on the side of the face. Seeing that her exclusive territory was violated, Sylvia patted her daughter's head with slight anger and demonstrated to her husband at the same time. Sylvia had already made up her mind that tonight, when the children were asleep, she would declare absolute ownership of Fang Yan's body.
At that moment, the telephone rang suddenly from the living room in the center. Fang Yan was stunned, and then walked quickly towards the source of the sound. For a moment, Fang Yan couldn't help but feel a little helpless in his heart, could it be that his words just now had been fulfilled so quickly, and what tasks did he need to deal with at this moment?
"Brigadier General Brom, I'm Kars, Commander of the Battle Fleet. A meeting will be held at the headquarters of the Navy at 7 p.m. this evening, and the marshal has asked you to attend as well. The elderly male voice on the other end of the phone spoke slowly, but the will he expressed did not allow Fang Yan to disobey in any way. Fang Yan's heart froze, and he immediately opened his mouth to answer the order. He slowly put the receiver back on the phone holder, and his mind began to work fast. Calculating the time, at this time, the Tirpitz sea trial training has probably reached the end of the first stage, and theoretically has the ability to go to sea to fight. If nothing else, tonight's meeting will most likely be to discuss the departure of the German Navy's new ****-sized fleet.
"The last time diplomatic relations were broken in the Atlantic, a good thing was ruined by a British submarine that attacked the Blucher, and this time the British should not have such good luck anyway." Fang Yan thought in his heart. For Fang Yan, who was well aware of the power of aircraft carriers, the wave of fleet sorties at the beginning of the war was actually only half the success: although the British home fleet was broken, the Atlantic route it guarded was not dealt too hard. As a direct result, London today still dares to stare at Berlin, and hopes that after its industry has fully completed the transformation of the war, it can work with the United States and France to turn the situation around.
Thinking of this, the corners of Fang Yan's mouth hooked up a cold arc. Britain, the evil sowing machine of hatred, has been abusing the world for too long, and now is the time for it to be full of evil. (To be continued.) )
