The first snow of 1942 came a little earlier than usual. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

When the vast plains of Ukraine were covered in snow, Chen Dao's special train sailed into Mykolaiv, an important town in southern Ukraine.

The Governor General of Ukraine, Reinhardt Heydrich, and the commander of Hitler's Youth Division, Major General Mills, personally greeted Chen Dao at the station.

Both were dressed identically, wearing long black leather coats.

The difference is that under the military hat, Heydrich maintains his usual cold face, but Major General Mills has a sad face.

When the reinforcements stepped off the train one after another and lined up on the platform, Major General Mills saw the overlord flowers of the two companies, and he felt very painful.

Heydrich squinted at the female soldiers lining up on the platform, and there was a little more expression on his grim face.

Monkey business! Nonsense! Nonsense!

Chen Dao read Heydrich's expression.

After some greetings, the men and soldiers at the station divided into two routes, and the reinforcements boarded the train outside the station and headed for the Hitler Youth Division in the south.

Chen Dao took the adjutant corps to a reception luncheon arranged by Heydrich and Major General Mills.

At the reception banquet, because of the presence of the embarrassing person Yakov, Major General Heydrich and Major General Mills only warmly welcomed Chen Dao's arrival and expressed optimism about the future war situation, and did not say anything sensitive about it.

After the luncheon, the adjutants and Yakov were sent for a lunch break, and Chen Dao and the three of them held a small meeting behind closed doors.

As soon as Chen Dao sat down, Major General Mills couldn't wait to ask, "What's going on with those female soldiers?" Are they here to solve our problems, or are they here to cause us problems? ”

"I know that their arrival will cause you a lot of trouble, but there is no way, they have already come, you have to find a way to solve all the troubles yourself, but there is a principle, you can't hide them all in the rear, you must let them go to war."

Heydrich said: "It is not impossible for women to go to war, they die for the country on the battlefield, or they are disabled, I can accept it, but what if someone is captured? It is not difficult to imagine what kind of evil deeds the Slavs will do to them. ”

"I didn't do it on a hot head or a whim. This war has spanned too long for us, both in terms of scale and length of the front, far beyond the last war. On top of that, the ultimate goal we set is extremely ambitious. Now our biggest shortcoming has been exposed, and that is human resources. The United States has a population of 130 million, Russia has a population of 160 million, and the United Kingdom has a population of nearly 50 million. We have only 65 million people, and with Austria and the Germanic people in the occupied territories, we can barely make 80 million people. None of our allies are too reliable, and it would be nice not to cause us trouble. So, we can only rely on these 80 million people.

Because the enemy and potential enemy are too strong, we must use all the human resources at our disposal. ”

Heydrich said: "So, you have the idea of beating women and sending women to war? ”

"Wrong, there won't be many women on the battlefield, including this batch, there shouldn't be more than 3,000 people, and all of them are volunteers. My real purpose is that if we can't avoid a war with the United States in the future, and we have to deal with both the east and the west, I'm afraid we will have to mobilize women into the factories and replace men on the front. In fact, the Americans, the British, and the Russians are already doing this. The purpose of my training of these female soldiers is to prepare for the future.

If there are five, no, three, or even one of these female soldiers who can perform well and provide propaganda materials to the propaganda department, my goal will be achieved.

I've said all this, and you should understand the weight of your shoulders, General Mills. ”

Major General Mills said, "Well, I'll try to keep them safe and try to create opportunities for them to make meritorious contributions." Alas, what a hassle. ”

"With regard to human resources, in addition to exploiting the potential of our Germanic people, it is also important to make the best possible use of the spiritual Germanic people in the occupied territories and let them do some auxiliary work."

"We are doing united front work, winning over a group, cracking down on a group, dividing a group, and making our friends more numerous." Heydrich said.

"This afternoon, we will accompany the son of Stalin to see the specific content of our united front work." Chen Dao said.

After all, Heydrich has a superior IQ, and he can see Chen Dao's purpose at a glance.

"You want to bring him to our side as well?"

Chen Dao said with a smile: "As the boss of Abweil, I always have to do some political achievements, you have to cooperate with me." If the united front succeeds in the future, we will take half of the credit. ”

Heydrich smiled and said: "I accept this challenging job. ”

The lunch break passed in a flash, and at two o'clock in the afternoon, Major General Mills left for the division headquarters, and Heydrich accompanied Chen Dao and Yakov to a prisoner of war camp on the southern outskirts of Nikolaev.

More than 150 kilometers south of Nikolaev was the Crimean Peninsula, where the German 12th Army and the Romanian 3rd and 4th Armies were engaged in battles with the Russian Southern Front, and from time to time prisoners of war were evacuated to prisoner-of-war camps.

In the prisoner of war camp, Chen Dao saw those mentally exhausted and shabby prisoners of war in long queues, undergoing rounds of screening.

At the site of the first round of screening, more than 100 newly arrived prisoners of war gathered around a small rostrum more than one meter high.

On the podium, an SS major stood at the microphone and shouted in Russian: "Is there anyone willing to join us in fighting the Bolsheviks, if so, go to the registration office on my right." Once you have successfully registered, you will be glorious German soldiers and leave this damned prisoner of war camp. ”

After the SS major shouted three or four times, more than 40 of the 150-strong POWs went to the registration office to sign up.

The SS major shouted twice, no one went to sign up again, and the second round of screening began.

The prisoner of war camp guards standing on the sidelines rushed into the remaining prisoners of war, pulled all the officers inside out of the crowd, and stood alone in a line.

The SS major pointed to the rest of the crowd and shouted: "Go to the registration office over there now, tell me your home address, now, go at once." ”

After some registration, the crowd was divided into two parts.

The prisoners of war in the first part have their home addresses in Belarus and Ukraine, and a very small number come from the three Baltic states.

The SS major shouted: "You lucky guys, from this day onwards the war is over for you, and we will soon issue you passes and travel money to get you home." Remember, your names and looks are on file with us, and if you go home and join the guerrillas and are found out by us, you will no longer be treated as prisoners of war. Once captured, what awaits you will be hanging. ”

Hearing the words of the SS major, the prisoners of war excitedly discussed.

"You go to the photo studio now to take pictures, and when you return to your hometown, if you want to find a job, remember to contact the local production and construction corps with your pass, and they will take care of you first."

Seeing that the released captives were taken for photographing, Yakov curiously asked: "What is the Production and Construction Corps?" ”

Chen Dao patiently explained: "The three Baltic states, Belarus and Ukraine, have been extremely badly damaged in the previous war, and we need to restore the normal order of production and life in these regions. Therefore, four production and construction corps were formed. In the three Baltic states are the Baltic Production and Construction Corps, as well as the Belarusian Production and Construction Corps, as well as the Eastern and Western Ukrainian Production and Construction Corps. ”

Yakov nodded, pointed to the remaining prisoners of war, and said to the officers: "What treatment will they have?" ”

"The fate that awaits them will be labor reform," Heydrich said.

As Heydrich spoke, the two groups of people Yakov pointed to merged into a group.

The SS major said: "I am sorry, gentlemen, but the next thing you will undergo is re-education through labor. In Germany, no one can get something for nothing. For the rest of your life as a prisoner of war, you will be taken to a nearby town every day to work under your supervision. Depending on how much you work each day, we will issue you vouchers of varying amounts, with which you can buy food, warm clothing, and necessary medicines in the prisoner of war camps. Winter has arrived, and if you don't want to spend the winter in autumn clothes, work hard. When the war is over, you will be released. Until then, our government will communicate with your government so that you can send letters to your families. ”

After the crowd dispersed, Chen Dao said to Yakov: "Germany's national strength is limited, and in the spirit of humanitarianism, we can only do this, and if you have any good suggestions, you can put them to Governor Heydrich." ”

Heydrich said to Yakov: "Mr. Dzhugashvili, are you interested in meeting the commander of the Russian Liberation Army, Lieutenant General Vlasov. ”

"Lieutenant General Vlasov? I've heard of this surname. Yakov pondered according to the door of his head.

Heydrich said: "Lieutenant General Vlasov, the former commander of the 26th Army, is the highest-ranking former Russian soldier who defected to us, and we have decided to use him as commander to create a Russian Liberation Army." It was used to liberate the suffering Russian people. ”

After Heydrich's reminder, Yakov instantly remembered Vlasov's appearance.

"Is that the black-rimmed Vlasov, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a loyal look? He even defected to the enemy! ”

Yakov suddenly felt that his three views had been greatly impacted.

"In this war, the Axis powers are on the side of justice, and the will of the people is inevitable." Chen Dao said.

Chen Dao looked at the painful Yakov and Heydrich exchanged glances.

"I'm going to India, I'm in a hurry, and I'll be accompanied by Governor Heydrich in the future to watch the great changes that have taken place in Ukraine." Chen Dao said.

Bidding farewell to Yakov, in the evening of the same day, Chen Dao's special carriage was dismantled and attached to the back of a Romanian wounded train, all the way to Bucharest, the capital of Romania.

In Bucharest, Chen Dao met with representatives of Romania, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, and other Axis members. A group of people held a spoils rally to share the spoils.

The first $10 billion in loans from the United States arrived, with Germany, as the largest contributor, receiving half of the 5 billion, Italy 2 billion, and the rest of the Axis countries sharing the remaining 3 billion.

After some intrigues, the Axis powers split the remaining $3 billion as follows.

Romania and Hungary, which suffered more from the war, need a lot of money to resume production as soon as possible, especially to ensure the production of the Ploiesti and Budapest oil fields, and each country will receive a share of 500 million US dollars.

Spain, which had suffered more from the civil war, also received 500 million, mainly because of its status as the controller of the Strait of Gibraltar and the Canary Islands.

Each of the three Baltic states received $300 million.

Of the remaining $600 million, Norway and Yugoslavia each received $200 million, and Bulgaria and Greece each received $100 million.

After the spoils distribution meeting, taking advantage of the favorable opportunity when all countries had made a small fortune, Chen Dao launched a wave of large-scale fire sales activities on behalf of Germany.

The production lines and drawings of the ME-109, HE-111, Stuka, the No. 4G tank, the SD KFZ 250/251 series armored vehicles, and the Type 42 Three Brothers were placed on the counter by Chen Dao.

The variety of weapons used by the Axis member states greatly increased the logistical pressure on the Eastern Front, and Chen Dao believed that it was necessary to carry out the generalization of the weapons and equipment of the Axis group in the war.

The specifics of the sale were tossed to the representatives of the industry who had arrived from Germany, and he himself went to Brasov in west-central Romania with the adjutant's corps.

Brasov is located at the northern foot of the Southern Carpathians, on a hill thirty kilometers outside the city, there is a Brown Castle.

Brown Castle also has an alias, Dracula Castle.

The original owner of Dracula Castle was none other than the famous vampire Count Dracula.

Chen Dao and his lieutenant leisurely watched the scenery in Count Dracula's castle, imagining the future along the way.

"When the war is over in the future, I will definitely use this castle as a backdrop to make a movie belonging to Count Dracula, so that the whole world can feel the charm of vampires."

Chen Dao said that he was in a hurry, but he was not in a hurry on his legs. The group stayed in Romania until November 19 before resuming their journey via Bulgaria into Greece.

In Athens, the capital of Greece, Chen Dao and others lingered for two days before they boarded the auspicious ship Prince Eugen docked at the dock.

On the day of departure, it was already November 23.

Standing in the bridge of the Prince Eugen, Chen Dao looked at the sea-sky boundary in the distance.

The next target is Alexandria, Egypt, where there is to meet a heavyweight and negotiate a big deal.

It's really an endless business to talk about, and an endless amount of money to make!
