The port of Genoa, an important town in northern Italy.

After a long journey, the heavy cruiser Prinz Eugen finally arrived at its destination, where Chen Dao would change trains and return to Germany.

After the slender hull docked, Chen Dao walked down the gangway with the little adjutant salon and saw a familiar figure in front of him.

Goering's adjutant, Lieutenant Colonel Clark, how did he get here?

Chen Dao had an ominous premonition in his heart, and with this ominous premonition, Chen Dao and Lieutenant Colonel Clark saluted each other.

"What did Marshal Goering send you for?"

Lieutenant Colonel Clark replied in a low voice: "General Rosen, it's inconvenient to say here, let's change places." ”

Chen Dao took the car prepared by Lieutenant Colonel Clark and went straight to the Genoa railway station and boarded the special train prepared for him by the Italians.

After the two men had sat down in the carriage, Lieutenant Colonel Clark said: "Marshal let me tell you that the Führer's old malaise has flared up again. ”

"Old problems? There are many old problems with the Führer, which one are you referring to? Chen Dao asked suspiciously.

"Literary and artistic middle-aged disease, the specific symptoms are here." Lieutenant Colonel Clark said as he pulled out a file bag from the briefcase he was carrying.

Chen Dao took the file bag and looked it up and down carefully, and after confirming that the seal was in good condition, he tore open the seal.

Taking out the document inside, Chen Dao moved his facial features to the center of his face every time he looked at a line of words, and after reading all the contents of the document, his facial features were already squeezed together in the center of his face.

The sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, and the Führer is afraid to change his plan!

For the sake of a Turkey where birds don't, it is necessary to drastically revise the battle plan for the summer offensive, and the symptoms of this attack of Lao Xi's literary and artistic mid-life disease are very serious and must be treated.

Goering mentioned in the document that he, Marshal Reichenau and others temporarily dismissed Lao Xi's intention to revise the plan, but in the end, the matter of convincing Lao Xi had to be left to Chen Dao, a "literary youth".

Chen Dao's anger turned into a flash of fire on the lighter.

Watching the documents in his hand burn to ashes in the ashtray, the facial features on Chen Dao's face stretched back into place.

"I know about this, and I will find a way to convince the Führer." Chen Dao said.

I don't know why, Lieutenant Colonel Clark always felt that there was a taste of gnashing of teeth behind Chen Dao's calm tone.

Is it a delusion? It should be an illusion.

Lieutenant Colonel Clark's mind changed, and he began to wonder how the famous "Your Excellency Brother-in-law" in front of him would treat the Führer's "literary middle-aged" disease.

Chen Dao looked at the platform outside the train window, only to find that there was a line of Italian gendarmes standing on the platform, and the entire platform seemed to be under martial law.

"What's going on outside, you go and ask the Italians, when are you going to drive?" Chen Dao pointed out the window and said.

Lieutenant Colonel Clark got up and walked out of the carriage, and about ten minutes later, Lieutenant Colonel Clark returned to the carriage.

"The train won't be running for a short time, and Mr. Mussolini is on his way here, and he's going to see you off."

"Mussolini came to see me off?" Chen Dao blinked, and said in his heart, is the relationship between the two of us so good?

"Yes, that's what the station staff said." Lieutenant Colonel Clark said.

About half an hour later, out of politeness, Chen Dao stepped off the train and greeted Mussolini in front of the carriage door.

After a few pleasantries, the two walked into the carriage, and Mussolini drove away the others in the carriage, leaving only him and Chen Dao.

Looking at Mussolini's big red face and shiny bald head, Chen Dao was keenly aware of the battlefield instincts he had cultivated over the years.

This guy didn't look like he's here to see him off, but like he's here to find fault.

Chen Dao's guess was quickly verified, and Mussolini said with a calm face: "General Rosen, after you return to Berlin, please tell Adolf for me, you will let me do this······ No, not only me, but also the Franco leaders in Spain are passive, very passive. Your unauthorized actions have seriously damaged the interests of the Axis powers. ”

What the heck? It was really inexplicable, Chen Dao couldn't figure out Mussolini's intentions for a while, and asked tentatively: "What is the behavior that harms your interests?" Mr. Leader, please be clear. ”

"Why is Madagascar independent? Before, in order to dismantle the British colonies, you plotted Jordanian independence, which I could barely accept. But now, you are planning the independence of Madagascar without taking it upon yourself, and have you ever thought about the bad impact you will have on the colonies we control? ”

"What impact can it have? They just want to be independent? Then let them be independent. Chen Dao said lightly.

Mussolini's originally red face instantly turned the color of pork liver.

"You······ You ······ You guys are going too far, that's how you Germans treat your allies? Do you still have a big picture? You will pay the price for your lack of a big picture. ”

Chen Dao's gaze focused on Mussolini's right index finger, which almost poked into his nose, and a violent urge to break it swelled in his heart.

Lao Tzu is accumulating anger and preparing to go back to Germany to educate Lao Xi, what kind of green onion are you a black bald man, dare to talk to me like this?

Mussolini didn't know that he was demoted by Chen Dao from "His Excellency the Leader" to the level of "ink bald" with one action, and was about to speak, when he heard Chen Dao say in a wandering manner: "Doing business always has to pay a little cost." I am planning two deals with Your Excellency. The first business was relatively small, only a few billion dollars······"

Tens of billions of dollars! Small business!

Mussolini's anger instantly came to naught, and Chen Dao's words could not be believed by him, after all, it was under the efforts of His Excellency this brother-in-law that the Axis group got a loan of 20 billion US dollars from the United States, and Italy received 4 billion, which has now been fully received, which is really a big pie.

Chen Dao's voice then came: "However, this small business is a preparation for another big business, if this small business is done well, we can talk about that big business." It's just that His Excellency the Leader seems to have a big opinion of me right now, so I'll forget about this business. ”

"Big business? Uh, what you're saying is true? That was a misunderstanding just now, how much money is involved in this business? Mussolini withdrew his finger and immediately changed the subject.

"A big business that starts with trillions of dollars has no ceiling."

Trillions of dollars? It shouldn't be bragging, Mussolini was cautious.

"Can you elaborate on the details of the business?" Mussolini asked.

"The first business was about the $20 billion loan we owed to the Americans, and I had an idea that maybe the Americans could forgive our debt. After all, $20 billion, plus 2 percent per annum interest, we are also under a lot of pressure to repay. ”

"$20 billion, not $200, the Americans won't forgive this debt."

"If we can get the Americans to get a greater benefit, the Americans will definitely forgive this debt. For example, if we support the US dollar replacing the British pound as the world currency, what do you think will happen to the Americans? Conversely, what if we support Britain and help it maintain its position as the world currency of the British pound? ”

Mussolini leaned back in his chair and touched his chin for a few seconds.

"I kind of see what you mean."

"The war is not over yet, and we should try to maintain good relations with the Americans while dealing with the Russians and Japanese. The United States is a bank and a company disguised as a state, supporting the United States to become the world's currency, and the profits of this business are large enough, I think the Americans should do this business with us. Moreover, allowing the dollar and the pound to fight, which can damage relations between the Americans and the British, is also what we would like to see. ”

"I'm sure you're not going to make a loss-making deal, I can work with you, but I need more details about the business. And what's going on with that big business? Mussolini regained his sanity as the leader of a great power and talked to Chen Dao in a serious manner.

"As for the details of that big business, it is so important that it needs to be kept secret now." Chen Dao said.

"Keep it secret, and keep it secret from me?" Mussolini said, pointing to his nose.

"Yes, to keep it a secret from you. This business is simply too big and needs a credit access system. Only when you and I have completed the first business together and accumulated enough credit value, can I rest assured that I will do the second business with you. ”

Mussolini instantly felt that he had been greatly insulted, and stood up and looked down at Chen Dao.

"You say that my dignified Italian leader has no credit? How dare you say that about me······"

"You're in a bar?" Chen Dao ignored Mussolini's questioning and asked calmly.

"Don't change the subject, what does credit have to do with alcoholism?"

"Of course it does, because big business is meant to be kept absolutely secret. It's fine when you're sober, but after drinking too much, you won't necessarily keep it secret, and it's likely that you'll brag to your mistress and your son-in-law, that is, leak secrets. For the sake of insurance, I must not tell you the details of the big business right now. If you really want to know, cooperate with me to make your first business and accumulate enough credit. ”

The incomprehensible and accommodating attitude of the old man aroused Mussolini's strong curiosity.

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll be able to keep it a secret, just like I keep a battle plan a secret, tell me."

"No······" Chen Dao shook his head and said, just after speaking, Chen Dao suddenly remembered the word Mussolini's battle plan.

With a move in his heart, Chen Dao changed his words and said: "Unless you come to Berlin, such a big business, we must discuss it with the Führer and Marshal Goering." Before we talk business, though, let's take a look at this year's summer offensive. Because this big deal was made after the war with the Russians was over, we had to deal with the Russians as soon as possible before we could talk about business. ”

Seeing Chen Dao's categorical appearance, Mussolini could only temporarily suppress the surging business experience in his heart, and instead asked: "When do you need me to go to Berlin?" ”

"Within three days, you get ready."
