Chapter 403: Borrowing the Corpse to Resurrect the Soul

"This fat man, it looks like he's really going to fight us to the end." Immediately after learning that Churchill had just delivered his famous "never give up" speech, Reinhardt also issued a-for-tat speech in the German parliament.

Of course, as a reaper of substantial victories, Reinhardt's speech was obviously more convincing.

"For more than three years, ever since Mr. Churchill came to power, he has been chasing around Europe like a madman, looking for everything he can set on fire." At the German parliament, Reinhardt jokingly summed it up: "He was the most bloodthirsty and layman strategist I have ever met." From Norway to France, from Narvik to Dunkirk, everything Mr. Churchill did, in the final analysis, was to provide prisoners to the Third Reich. ”

Reinhardt smiled conceitedly, and then deliberately attacked Churchill for his unashamed description of Dunkirk as a success: "It seems to me that Mr. Churchill's greatest genius is to be able to lie and distort the facts in a pious manner, until finally the fiasco is a glorious victory!! ”

Similar to Churchill's speech on the theme of "Never give up", Reinhardt's speech on the theme of "Fat Qiu is a fool" will also be publicized internationally through the German media and become another speech that people talk about.

"If the British really want peace," Reinhardt smiled kindly, "they will have peace in two weeks without losing their dignity." ”

After releasing the verbal promise, Reinhardt continued to boast: "I sympathize with the British soldiers who fought in France, because they did not know what they were fighting for. ”

"France and Germany have an irreconcilable dispute over the Ruhr industrial area. Britain and Germany, at least until Mr. Churchill intervened, had been steadily maintaining the treaty signed in Munich that year. And what I want to say today is that as long as Mr. Churchill is gone, the Third Reich will continue to honour the peace treaty with Mr. Chamberlain. ”

When the Munich Agreement was signed, Neville Chamberlain, then Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, unexpectedly declared to the British people, "We have won the peace of a generation." ”

As a result, just a year later, the British army stepped onto the battlefield and went to war with Germany, which had signed the treaty.

Now, Reinhardt is playing this card.

He wanted to use the Munich Agreement, which had already existed in name only, to re-isolate some of the British people's will to resist, so that they would think that peace was possible, and that they would not firmly support Churchill's war strategy.

Of course, Churchill himself openly said: "The Munich Agreement was a "complete surrender" of the Western countries to the threat of force against Germany, and "a shameful defeat for Britain without war." That is, Churchill himself was incompatible with Reinhardt's "peace agreement".

Based on the experience of later generations and the analysis of Churchill's personal character by later generations, Reinhardt was convinced early on that Churchill was an absolute diehard who would never surrender. As long as Britain remained in power, Britain decided that it would not negotiate peace with the Third Reich.

Since you can't talk to Qiu Fatzi, you can simply smear him. In the big picture, Reinhardt sought to portray Churchill as a fanatical colonialist, a warmonger, and likened himself to a messenger of justice. In private, he maliciously spread rumors that Churchill was associated with homosexuality, which was not accepted by mainstream British society.

In short, Reinhardt did not have any hope for Churchill, a man with whom it was impossible to work with, from the outset. Everything he gave was addressed to the British people and to the rest of the world.

As for why Germany would fight Britain later, it would have to be the personal reasons of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill.

"Germany wants peace and is willing to lay a solid foundation for lasting peace in Europe. I am convinced that an end to the state of war between Germany and Great Britain will serve to advance the real interests of the peoples of the world. ”

"I know that Mr. Churchill just delivered a speech yesterday that also spelled out his personal rebellious resolve."

Reinhardt did not put the whole of Britain on the opposite side, but deliberately threw all the black pots to Churchill alone. Although he knew that this would not immediately shake Churchill's position, it would help to establish a peace-loving image of Germany internationally, if not as an image.

History is written by the victors, but even the victors cannot write history blindly. Reinhardt, on the other hand, now wants to provide material for future history textbooks and provide the peace-loving side of the Third Reich.

"The blood that has been shed on the European continent over the past 300 years is far from commensurate with the consequences of these events for all countries. Imperial ambitions, political desires, and patriotic prejudices have caused a great deal ......of bloodshed," Reinhardt said in accordance with the standard model of a sage: "If these nations had spent only a fraction of their sacrifices for more sensible and constructive purposes, their achievements would have been greater and more permanent." ”

After all, Germany did not attack the Netherlands or invade Norway in this lifetime.

In this life, the Third Reich only went to war with Poland, which invaded its own territory, and with France and Belgium, which invaded the Ruhr. At the same time, the Third Reich also acted as a "messenger of justice" for a while, quickly sending troops when the Anglo-French forces violated the sovereignty of Norway, and retained power for the Kingdom of Norway.

To some extent, the Third Reich's international prestige was better than that of Britain and France, which had destroyed Norway's neutrality and sent troops to neutral countries, simply because of the war to save Norway.

At this moment, Reinhardt is really a bit into the play, he looked at the camera of a reporter, raised his arms and shouted with righteousness: "Whether it is accurate, if you want to start a war in Europe, you can't hope for anything other than chaos." However, we are firmly convinced that it will be the revival of the West, not the demise of the West, that will be achieved in our time. Germany's potential for an indelible contribution to this great work is a proud hope and an unshakable conviction. ”

"May God, who bless Germany with its constant victories, also help the people of Great Britain to realize how unwise and pointless it is to fight against Germany."

"And for Mr. Churchill, I have something to give him." Before the end, Reinhardt smiled a little slyly: "When I tell you that a great empire is about to be destroyed, you should believe me. I also hope that you will win the opinion and affection of the British people in this matter, and not continue a senseless war. ”

Whether this is good or not, of course it is good. You, Germany, are almost done fighting on the European continent, and at this time you want peace, and when the British Empire does not want hegemony?

Even Reinhardt, who said this, knew that Britain would never accept Germany's peace proposals, either with British hegemony or Churchill's imperial dream.

Well, this beautiful speech really just made Reinhardt famous, and then there was no real meaning of beautiful words.
