After lunch, everyone said goodbye to Hitler. Goering saw Goebbels take the first step with his eyebrows fluttering, and the pressure in his heart doubled, this "cripple" must have gone so fast to spread the news, Goering thought darkly.

"Marshal, the Führer invites you and Major Rosen to the lounge." Hitler's adjutant invited.

Goering had no choice but to go to the lounge of the Chancellery with Chen Dao, and Hitler was already sitting on the sofa in the middle of the main seat.

Seeing Goering and Chen Dao entering, Hitler stood up and stretched out his right hand to the two from a distance to greet them. Goering hurriedly reached out and shook Hitler's hand.

Hitler clasped Goering's right hand tightly and said: "Thank you, Hermann, my dearest old comrade-in-arms. ”

Goering looked dazed, and before he could react, Hitler had already let go of his hand and stretched out his right hand to Chen Dao.

Chen Dao was also confused, stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Hitler.

"Thank you, dear little one." Hitler said.

Hitler motioned for the two to sit down, and then said affectionately: "You have discussed today's matter, right?" Especially you, Heinz, who did not hesitate to sacrifice your personal image to boost morale, and I know very well what you mean, and thank you again for your sacrifice. ”

Chen Dao and Goering were stunned and had no idea what Hitler was talking about.

"Herman, you are well aware that the Army has been opposed to me since the initial reconquest of the Rhineland. This was true at the time of the reconquest of Austria, with the annexation of the Sudetenland and the Czechs, and with them before the Polish campaign. Now we are going to fight two more formidable enemies, England and France, who will surely still thwart me. Today at lunch you deliberately said that we could defeat France in eight weeks, you, me, and Heinz, of course we knew that it was impossible, but Heinz said it anyway, and he said, "Hitler couldn't help but burst out laughing."

After struggling to stop laughing, Hitler continued: "And that the French can only win battles under the leadership of loli and foreigners." In order to strengthen my resolve against the French war, and to boost morale, you have made up such humorous jokes, and you have good intentions to say them on such occasions. In a week at most, today's dialogue will spread all over the German world, and in addition to letting the officers and soldiers know that we are disdainful of the French, I am afraid that in the eyes of some pessimists, Heinz and the Luftwaffe will become their laughing stock. ”

Hitler sighed at this, and then said to Goering and Chen Dao with a solemn face: "In short, thank you again for the sacrifices you have made for Germany. ”

Chen Dao and Goering looked at each other, Chen Daoxin said that the Führer, a middle-aged man in literature and art, was really active in his thinking, and he just wanted to have a normal lunch in order not to be devastated by his "spiritual atomic bomb", but he didn't expect to be put on the platform to the realm of worrying about the country and the people, which was really unexpected.

This seems to be an opportunity, Chen Dao has a flash of inspiration in his mind, what is the biggest advantage of being a traverser? Is it political ability? Or the military ability to command large corps operations?

As a modest bandit, Chen Dao clearly knows his weight, he does not think that he has a higher ability to govern than Hitler, nor does he think that he has more superb command ability than Guderian, Rommel, Manstein and other famous generals, his biggest advantage is the prophetic sense of history, he should make himself a prophet, in order to improve the weight in Hitler's heart, and then influence Germany's strategic decision-making, Chen Dao secretly made up his mind in his heart.

Of course, Goering knew that what happened at lunch today was nothing more than Chen Dao's unauthorized actions, and it was not premeditated at all, but Hitler over-interpreted Chen Dao's words and believed that they had deliberately arranged them. Confession and leniency? Goering immediately rejected this idea, and if Hitler was allowed to know the truth, Hitler, who was embarrassed and angry, would not necessarily do anything, and perhaps cancel his status as the Führer's heir, and he would never confess.

When Goering was entangled, Chen Dao's voice reached Goering's ears. "Führer, you are wrong."

Hearing Chen Dao's words, Goering instantly felt that his front heart and back were soaked with sweat.

"Oh? Isn't that so? Hitler's face suddenly became cloudy.

"It's not at all what you think, I won't be the laughing stock of the German world, and the Luftwaffe won't, I'm telling the truth, we will definitely defeat France in eight weeks." Chen Dao said seriously.

Goering breathed a sigh of relief, and said in his heart that fortunately, Heinz was not stupid enough to confess, and it was better to have a hard mouth than to confess.

The clouds on Hitler's face gradually dissipated, and with a smile of "I understand everything", he said: "I think you should join the Propaganda Department, maybe you will be able to take over the post of Propaganda Minister in the future." ”

Chen Dao ignored Hitler's ridicule, stood up and said solemnly: "Führer, find me a map, and I will show you how to defeat France in eight weeks." ”

This time it was Hitler's turn to be stunned, Chen Dao enjoyed the feeling of being noticed by Hitler, and after a few words of urging, Hitler was driven by curiosity to move to the office with Goering and Chen Dao.

"Bring me a pencil." Chen Dao said unceremoniously to Hitler.

Hitler cooperated and handed Chen Dao a sharpened pencil, and the three of them stood in front of Hitler's desk, Chen Dao pointed to the German-French border on the map with a pencil and said: "Since learning that Britain and France have declared war on us, the marshal, oh, my brother-in-law is very concerned about the war plan against France, and he often tells me that our war against France must be resolved quickly, otherwise once it becomes a protracted war, the Russians, who have always had no morality, will definitely stab us in the back." ”

Hitler nodded, looked up and looked at Goering, the look of approval in his eyes.

A hot current surged in Goering's heart, Heinz was his own person in the end, he didn't care about him in vain since he was a child, and he didn't forget to brag about himself at such a time.

"After returning to Berlin, I often discussed with my brother-in-law how to fight against France while recuperating from my wounds, and recently it finally came to fruition." Chen Dao continued.

Hitler quietly glanced at the elated Chen Dao, and secretly made up his mind in his heart, even if Chen Dao's plan was that kind of smelly bad idea, he should be greatly encouraged, after all, he couldn't chill this child's sincere heart, as for the battle plan? Think of it as a joke.

Chen Dao knew what Hitler really thought, and he gushed out: "If we want to fight a quick battle, we can only take risks, and my idea is concrete, our troops fighting in France are divided into three army groups. ”

Chen Dao pointed to the German-French border and said: "On the opposite side of the Maginot Line, we set up Army Group C, and the task of this Army Group is to feint the Maginot Line and attract their attention. ”

Hitler nodded and encouraged: "This idea is very good, go ahead." ”

Encouraged to get more and more excited, Chen Dao pointed to the border between Germany and Belgium and said: "Here, we will set up Army Group B, and after the war starts, they will attack the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, and then attack France. ”

Hitler and Goering were so disappointed that they both recognized it, and this was clearly a copy of Schlieffen's plan, and there was nothing new at all.

"How is this different from the Schlieffen Plan?" Goering asked with a cold face, coldly unable to prevent a pain in his foot, but he was kicked by Chen Dao under the table.

"Führer, how would you cope if you were French?" Chen Dao didn't look at Goering, who had just been kicked by him, and stared at Hitler and asked.

"If I were French, I would have placed the main forces on the Belgian border, and as soon as the war started, I would immediately enter Belgium and intercept Army Group B on Belgian territory, and I would not fall twice in the same place, after all, I had already suffered a loss twenty years ago." Hitler said without hesitation.

"What do we do next if the French are like what the Führer said?" Chen Dao turned his head to look at Goering.

Goering said in his heart how do I know, but he had just been kicked by Chen Dao, and he didn't dare to dismantle the stage again, so he could only cooperate with his head and immediately said ambiguously: "If the main force of the French enters the territory of Belgium, they will suffer." ”

"Why?" Hitler asked, staring at Goering.

"Because we still have an army group that has not been dispatched." Goering said nervously under the pressure of Hitler and Chen Dao.

Chen Dao saw fine beads of sweat on the tip of Goering's nose, and said in his heart that the fire was almost over, and said: "When my brother-in-law and I formulated this plan, we had already considered the response plan of the French, so once the main force of the French entered Belgium, they would lose half of this war, because our Army Group B was also a feint. ”

"A feint too?" Hitler's interest was aroused by Chen Dao at once.

"Tell me, where is Army Group 3?" Hitler asked.

"After the main force of the French enters Belgium, our real main force, Army Group A will come from here" Chen Dao pointed to a point on the map and said viciously: "The Arden Pass will attack France, and then strengthen the Maas River, and then march to the northwest to attack the English Channel, completely cut off the retreat of the British and French forces in Belgium, and finally destroy them together with Army Group B." ”

"Having eliminated the main forces of the Anglo-French forces, their remaining forces are simply vulnerable, and we will soon occupy all of France, and my brother-in-law and I expect the French campaign to be over in six to eight weeks." Chen Dao put away his pencil and stared at Hitler and said proudly, quite a kind of "pointing out the country and inspiring words".

Hitler stared at the map in silence, and after a while, he suddenly looked up and asked, "Who else knows about this plan but you?" ”

"Only the three of us know at the moment." Chen Dao said.

Hitler nodded and said with a straight face: "Heinz, I order you, without my order, this plan is not allowed to be talked to anyone." ”

"Yes." Of course, Chen Dao knew the importance of secrecy, and replied solemnly.

"I have two questions, the first one, Army Group A is the main force, and the spearhead of their offensive is the armored forces?" Hitler asked.

Chen Dao didn't speak, but just kicked Goering again under the table, Goering was reminded, saw Chen Dao bowed his head slightly, and said boldly: "Of course." ”

"The second question, does the terrain of the Ardennes Pass allow the passage of armored troops?" Hitler asked.

Chen Dao still didn't speak, and when Goering saw this, he had to grit his teeth and say, "Of course you can." ”

"If you have any concerns, we can ask General Guderian to go to Belgium for a field trip." Chen Dao said.

Hitler stood up straight, stared at the map with his arms crossed, and pondered, and it took five minutes for Hitler to break the silence in his office.

"This idea of yours is very good, no, it is a genius idea, and it can definitely shorten the time of the campaign considerably." Hitler said to Chen Dao and Goering.

"It's just that the French are still very tenacious in combat, and the British are helping them, and I expect the war to be fought for half a year." Hitler hesitated.

"No way, as long as the army can do its best and not slack off, we can definitely win in eight weeks, and if they don't secretly obstruct it, it is possible in six weeks." Chen Dao retorted.

Goering did not miss the opportunity to dig a hole for the army, and then said: "If you want those old men of the army to do their best, that is impossible, when did they agree with us?" ”

Hearing Goering's words, Hitler's face was clouded: "When I decided to regain the Rhineland in 1936 they opposed me, and I succeeded; When I decided to annex Austria in 1938 they opposed me, and I succeeded. Before the annexation of the Sudetenland, the Czech Republic, and Poland, they all opposed me, but without exception, I succeeded. If they turn against me this time, I firmly believe that I will succeed in the end. ”

"I have no doubt about it." Goering hurriedly pledged his loyalty to Hitler.

"Thank you, Herman." Hitler stretched out his hands and hugged Goering tightly.

"Führer, my brother-in-law knows that you are under a lot of pressure, but he is not a person who is good at expressing his emotions, and we can only let you know in this way that behind you there is still us supporting you." As soon as Chen Dao saw Hitler's true feelings, he hurriedly seized the opportunity to sensationalize and add bricks to the friendship between Hitler and Goering.
