"Here...... Really...... Great place...... Great place. "Got out of the car that greeted him, British Prime Minister Clement? Richard? Attlee didn't even know what words to use to describe what was in front of her.
In front of him stood Waffen-SS soldiers, and there were even two vicious-looking wolfhounds on the roadblock.
This is the German East Prussia and the location of the famous Führer's front command, the Wolf's Lair.
Of course, for the sake of Clement? Richard? In Attlee's eyes, it was a picturesque ...... Modern concentration camps.
Just where he parked, he saw the terrible mine warning signs planted in the open space on both sides...... This place is simply an island in the middle of a minefield.
To make matters worse, he also saw anti-aircraft guns for air defense, as well as searchlights for patrolling all places at night.
Combined with some sandbags piled up outside the bunker, it's a fortress, a modern fortress built in the middle of a dense forest.
"Welcome! Clement? Richard? Mr. Attlee, Prime Minister! You're welcome, Anthony? Minister Aiden! Standing on the outermost side was Bowman, the secretary of the Führer of the Third Reich.
If it weren't for the long-standing "friendship" between the two countries, Bowman might not have come to greet the prime minister of such a defeated country.
Now, at least on the surface, the British government is an ally of the Third Reich, and a newer, more important ally.
The Third Reich recognized British interests in the Far East, including India and Burma's colonies. In fact, the differences between the two countries are not serious, not from the beginning.
When Hitler was still alive, he dreamed of an alliance with Britain, and Germany never wanted to overthrow British hegemony on a world scale.
The Führer, as well as Goering, Hess and others, naively believed that if Britain was intimidated, Britain would admit defeat and cede its own interests.
In fact, there were not many benefits to be ceded: Hitler wanted to acquire some overseas colonies, but these colonies did not undermine Britain's fundamental interests.
The conflict between the two countries is mainly focused on the question of who is the boss in Europe. Now the problem is obvious, after Li Le's crossing, Germany is the boss of Europe.
After this was made clear, Germany did not actually do more to restrain Britain except for depriving Britain of its navy.
And in order to be able to quickly come out of the shadow of the war, Britain began to provide Germany with a large amount of arms.
From this point of view, in fact, British Prime Minister Clement? Richard? Attlee, and Foreign Secretary Anthony? Sir Aiden is a traitor.
Attlee saw Bowman, and his face finally soothed. His plane landed in East Prussia, and there was no big man to greet him as the prime minister along the way.
Dr. Goebbels, the Minister of Propaganda, heard that he was in Berlin and engaged in wartime conscription propaganda, made more than 20 films, and was ready to talk about himself and play a "Berlin Film Festival".
Imperial Field Marshal Goering had rushed to Munich a few days earlier, and when he heard that the Raven jet fighter had entered the crucial stage of test flight, he was relieved and went to personally preside over the test flight and procurement.
Speer was recently on the west coast of France and was busy revitalizing France's shipbuilding industry and integrating Europe's industrial productivity.
Hess, the deputy head of state, was even busier, because a part of the grain harvest was about to be harvested in the summer, and he, the supreme minister in charge of agriculture and the economy, was now proud of the spring breeze, and the people's hearts were even more desirable......
After all, people don't care much about wars, who can feed the people, and who is everyone's favorite leader, isn't it?
Foreign Minister Ribbentrop is in Turkey at this moment, and intense consultations are underway between the two countries on the use of the Black Sea. Turkey, of course, is bargaining, and the German side is not willing to pay too much.
However, because Turkey was still a neutral country, German warships, although not easy to pass, could actually pass through Turkey legally by transport ships and merchant ships.
Moreover, judging from the current military forces of Italy, Romania and other countries stationed in the Balkans, if Turkey does not know each other, it may be that the Axis powers will have to solve the problem of Black Sea shipping in their own way.
Mussolini was now regularly clamoring that Italy would wage war against Turkey if it continued to maintain a non-cooperative attitude.
It's just that the German Führer was not optimistic about the clamor of Italy, and he did not think that the Italian army could win against Turkey.
Therefore, in order to ensure the security of the Balkans, Li Le sent a long letter to Mussolini, hoping that he could keep his mouth shut and not mess with the strategy of the Axis powers.
Field Marshal Brauchitsch of the Army General Headquarters rushed to the front to inspect the supply of Army Group North. It's been a few days since I walked, and now I guess I'm in Leningrad.
As a result, most of the Führer's most trusted subordinates were not in the wolf's den. So Attlee really didn't have anyone to accompany him along the way.
"Thank you for coming here to greet you, otherwise I wouldn't know how to get in." Attlee complained slightly, which was a bit of a face-saving gesture for Bowman.
Bowman also knew that although the reason was good and the attitude was natural, they did snub the new "ally" a little.
So, the secretary of the Führer smiled and said while leading the way: "Tired all the way! The Führer is already waiting for two! Hopefully, this time, there will be some substantial progress between the two sides. ”
As he walked to the roadcar, Attlee looked unnaturally at the German SS soldiers standing on either side of him.
Dressed in old-fashioned Y-straps, the soldiers carried submachine guns or rifles on their backs, and stood as straight as poplars with their chins held high.
Worst of all, the soldiers wore the same uniforms as the SS occupation forces occupying the southern half of London – much to Attlee's discomfort and reminder of the half-occupied capital.
But he knew that everything had to look forward...... If he had been thinking about the German occupation zone on the British Isle, he would never have been able to get Britain back on his feet.
In the current situation, no matter how difficult it is, Britain must fully cooperate with Germany and strive to revive its own economy as quickly as possible.
Only in this way can Britain get on the fast track to recovery, and use the attrition of the Soviet-German war to buy time for British manufacturing to recover.
When this war is over, no matter who wins or loses, Britain can stay out of the situation and become the first country to rise in the ruins of Europe.
