While Li Ling was still struggling with whether he had been injured or not, his incomprehensible ability to recover had been reported to Rudolf Hess through the people in the field hospital. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, this only made Hess conclude Li Ling's mystery once again, but it did not allow Hess to invest too much experience into it, because from the moment Germany began to attack Poland, he had to face more problems to deal with!

When the sun rose over the horizon, Rudolf Hess's office was constantly receiving all kinds of news, and German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop was already busy.

Early that morning, the governments of Norway, Finland, and Switzerland, upon learning that Germany had launched an attack on Poland, immediately came out to express their positions, and the three countries declared their neutrality almost at the same time.

It is not a big surprise that these three countries remain neutral, after all, there is really no third country willing to be involved in this kind of war between two countries, and Switzerland is a permanent neutral country.

But the game is far from being as simple as it seems, and while declaring absolute neutrality, Switzerland has also announced the cessation of arms exports and services to any warring countries! Switzerland's neutrality is conceivable, but his statement has put Germany in a lot of difficulties, Germany really does not need any Swiss weapons and equipment, but Germany needs Swiss services, Germany needs Swiss banking!

As for Finland and Norway, there is no chaos in these two countries at the moment, and the statement is just a neutral statement, and there is not much other practical significance. These two countries are the most important importers of Germany's iron ore resources, and as long as it does not affect Germany's iron ore supply, it doesn't matter how they like to toss.

Soon after the three countries declared neutrality, more and more countries began to express their attitudes, and Britain and France once again set a final armistice for Germany, demanding that Germany must complete the withdrawal of troops from Poland by September 3, otherwise Britain and France would officially enter a state of war with Germany.

At the same time, the Secretary General of the League of Nations, the Frenchman Joseph Avonneau, issued a statement condemning the German invasion and demanding that Germany, which had long since withdrawn from the League of Nations, abide by international rules and immediately withdraw its troops from Poland.

The attitude adopted by the British and French governments and the League of Nations, which had long been controlled by Britain and France, had long been well understood, and what Ribbentrop had to do was to drag Britain and France as much as possible, and as for the rest, they had already been fought anyway, and their own troops had already entered it, and when they ate the meat in their stomachs, where was there any reason to spit it out?

Here Ribbentrop was in a hurry to deal with the diplomatic problems brought about by the war, and on the other side Rudolf Hess almost wanted to tear down the entire Chancellery!

Germany's invisible ally, the Franco regime of Spain, has just issued a statement calling on the world to exercise restraint so that the flames of war do not spread to any non-belligerents, do not go beyond Poland, and save the people from the suffering that the Spanish people have experienced.

Although people who understand it can see at a glance that the statement issued by the Spanish government is actually helping Germany and making it difficult for Britain and France to interfere casually, what Hess wants is not such a result, but to turn world public opinion around, Germany has created the illusion that Poland is the first to invade Germany and provoke a war, and what he needs at this time is for Spain to take this matter as a rhetoric and then stand behind Germany!

But Franco clearly disappointed Rudolf Hess!

It was not only Spain that disappointed Hess, but also an even more important ally - Italy!

An ally who had just signed a military alliance three months earlier, and who had announced that they would advance and retreat together, an ally who had privately promised to give all help to Germany to Poland and send troops into the war!

Such an ally, such an important ally, but such an ally turned out to have made a decision that caused an uproar among the German people!

At noon on the same day, Mussolini's Italian government issued an official notice, announcing that the Italian army would never intervene in the war between Germany and Poland, that Italy was in a state of non-war, and that the Italian government would not easily make any decisions that were unfavorable to the Italian people.

Mussolini's statement almost pushed Germany to the edge of the cliff, the war had begun, and at this time in Europe, there was no country that came out to claim to support Germany, even its own military alliances, did not stand up to support themselves!

In the face of the aggressive posture of Britain and France, Hess began to worry more and more about a war that did not receive the support of other countries in the region, and behind his own back, two superpowers with guns ready to shoot at their backs!

Hess was worried that the British **** would really provoke a war, and at the same time, he was also worried that once Britain and France launched a war against Germany, what would his future become, and whether he would become a prisoner!

"We must speed up the offensive, we must shorten the war as short as possible, and in any case, we need to settle the Polish question before Britain and France enter the war! We can't deal with the Anglo-French military threat from behind! ”

Hess repeatedly stressed his demands to the German high command by phone, but at the same time, he also exposed his inner cowardice!

"Is it possible to draw the USSR in and let the USSR join us in an attack on Poland? Didn't they already have a treaty with us? Didn't they also want Polish land? ”

Putting down the phone, Hess called Ribbentrop, who was already busy and anxious, and kept asking for all the methods he could think of.

"Führer, you should know that those clauses are secret, and you also know the temperament of the Soviets, and they will not easily plunge into the war until they are absolutely sure."

"No, they have signed a treaty with us, if they want those territories, they have to do it, they have to attack Poland with us!"

"Führer! You have to remember that if we ask the Soviets to attack Poland with us at this time, they will not only not agree, but may even turn against us! Because your instability will make them think that Germany is already afraid, and Germany is not 100% sure that it will win the war! At such times, they will only fall into the well, not in the snow! ”

Ribbentrop snorted coldly, got up and left the Chancellery directly, at this time, he actually missed Hitler a little, if the German Führer was not the current Rudolf Hess, but Adolf Hitler, how nice it would be!
