Following Mora's suggestion, Franco eventually sent 11 Spanish German armourers requested by Germany in the name of the Volunteer Army.

First, Franco dismissed all the officers of the German armourer, and then went through the procedure to use a special passage to get Ribbentrop to change Mora's nationality to German nationality.

After that, Mora bypassed the Spanish government and was "internally elected" by the Spanish Volunteer Army to become the commander of the Volunteer Army.

Of course, the fact that Mora became the commander-in-chief of the Volunteer Army was naturally not voted on by the entire Volunteer Army. In that case, on the one hand, the workload would be quite large, and on the other hand, if a commander-in-chief was to be elected, it would not be possible to meet the deadline set by Germany.

As for the internal officer structure of the Volunteer Army, it is also the internal command system of the previous German Armament Division. In this way, except for changing its name, the volunteer army is no different from the regular army in other aspects.

According to Reinhardt's request, the Germans were to travel all the way from Spain to the Spanish-French border via the Eremo International Bridge, and after crossing France with the assistance of the Vichy French government, they would pass through Saarbrücken, Karlsruhe, Nuremberg, and finally arrive at Grafenwall, where they would be assigned to the German High Command.

These 11 Spanish volunteer divisions will officially join the German armed forces in the reorganization, and will receive the number of the 250th Army awarded by Reinhardt himself. To distinguish it from other German army divisions, it was generally referred to as the 250th Spanish Regiment.

The division has another unofficial nickname, the Blue Legion.

The name is essentially used within the Volunteer Legion, and is the equivalent of a blue shirt that claims to come from the Falangists. As early as the Civil War, the Blue Army had already issued German-made equipment according to the standards of the German Army, uniformly wearing a Carlos red beret, the standard carte pants of the Spanish Foreign Legion, and a blue jacket of the Falangists. In addition, they have a red and yellow shield of the Spanish flag on the right sleeve of their uniform, with the word "Spain" inscribed on the top.

This gave these volunteer units a hint of Spanish characteristics, and they were also distinguished from the German Army.

Moreover, these armies are basically all elite troops, not like the Spanish volunteers in history, and there are a large number of non-professional soldiers mixed in.

This time, the volunteers were all well-equipped and well-trained regular army units that had experienced actual combat training in the Spanish Civil War.

Historically, Franco's participation in the war had a whole host of conditions. His conditions included such ...... as expanding Spain's colonies in North Africa, expanding the size of Spain proper, cutting the French, and Germany giving military and economic assistance to the Spaniards.

In the original history, these chips frightened the German high-level, and the Führer Hitler even said in private: I would rather have my teeth pulled out than talk about cooperation with the Spaniards.

But in this life, Reinhardt did not agree to any of Franco's demands at all, and won a new blue team ten times stronger than the historical blue team in all aspects.

The reason for this is that the allied forces of Germany, France and Norway, the allies led by Germany, marched all the way to the city of London on British soil, making the British Empire, which Franco feared the most, in danger and about to be wiped out.

In North Africa, the German, Italian, and French coalition forces, also led by Germany, were also at a disadvantage, blocking the offensive of Wavell's menacing Commonwealth coalition forces. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that sooner or later, the British army in North Africa will face the same fate as the British army at home.

On the Eastern Front, the German army not only relied on its own strength to establish an impregnable defensive line, allowing the Soviet army to crash into a head that was worse than the Soviet-Finnish battle, but also quickly pulled up the Derofen Three-Power Alliance, with a big backhand blow, and comprehensively defeated the Soviet army.

This made Franco unable to sit still.

If Germany finally won the Soviet-German war and led a group of younger brothers to destroy the Soviet Union. Spain, which had been on the wall all the way, not only could not share any leftovers and spoils of the war's victory, but was very likely to be squeezed out by the victorious countries participating in the war and spit out a lot of vested interests.

In order to maintain Spain's position in the Central Powers, Franco had to show something, and at least he had to see the war, so that the Allies could see that Spain had also helped.

At first, Franco planned to take the initiative to make up a volunteer army division to show his loyalty. But he didn't expect that before he could speak, Reinhardt's side took the first step to "help" Spain make a plan, and the lion opened his mouth to ask for 11 of the most elite divisions in Spain.

Among them, there is now the only armored division in all of Spain!

This made Franco, the most successful wall-head plant in history, start to feel pain in his flesh.

If the Royal Navy hadn't lost as badly, Franco would have had reason to be conservative. He could claim that, after all, Spain was only a second-class power, and that the land was surrounded by the sea on three sides, and that if it were openly hostile to the British, the Spanish navy, which had already fallen into a state of affairs, would surely be crippled by the cannons of the Royal Navy.

In Europe, although Spain's Arma was the first to become famous, with the overwhelming superiority of the Arma defeated by the British Navy, Spain gave up the title of maritime supremacy forever, and was suppressed by the British Navy for centuries.

No matter how brutal the Germans were, it was impossible for them to ask Spain to accompany them in fighting the Soviet Union, regardless of their own territorial safety. If Spain defects to Britain, then the German Navy may not be able to defeat the combined Anglo-Spanish fleet.

However, the defeat of the British deprived Spain, which was riding on both ends, of the capital to fall to one side or the other. Spain now had no choice but to defect to the German side, or to resign itself to becoming a specimen of Germany's example to the rest of the Central Powers.

There was no British grain, oil, and economic trade to co-opt, and there was no German military deal to provide the troops with combat effectiveness. Spain is only likely to grow weaker and weaker in the future, less and less able to rank among the international ranks.

Germany has basically taken over Europe, so it is not up to the German government to decide who to blockade and encircle and suppress in the future.

The most important thing is that Spain's gold reserves of more than 500 tons were basically cheated by the Germans with a batch of old and backward weapons during the civil war. After the end of the Civil War, the remaining population of Spain, not to mention the population of Germany, Britain and France, which were the most populous countries in Europe, even half of the population of Italy, was larger than the total population of Spain, which had a population of less than 20 million at that time.

There are no foreign exchange reserves, the country is not prosperous, and the war on the ground leaves everything in ruins. This makes Spain inseparable from the material support of the outside world, otherwise, it will be completely unable to develop.

For Germany, which controlled the whole of Europe through the Allied bloc and the League of Nations, it had actually controlled the lifeblood of Spain.
