"The Poles did not arrive in Berlin at the appointed time, and we have reason to believe that this is a unilateral abandonment of the peace process by the Poles!"

This was Ribbentrop's official response to the British and French governments, in the early hours of August 31, 1939!

Ribbentrop announced that the object of the decision was the British ambassador to Germany, Neville? Henderson, this means that the Germans have begun to prepare for war, but there is still a glimmer of hope on the British side. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At noon that day, the Polish Special Ambassador, Joseph? Lipski arrived in Berlin and asked to meet Ribbentrop, however, Ribbentrop once again refused the Polish side on the same grounds: "You did not arrive in Berlin before midnight!" ”

Moreover, what caught Lipski even more off guard was still to come, and less than an hour after Ribbentrop informed him that he had rejected the negotiations, the major German radio stations began to broadcast statements saying that the Polish government had rejected Germany's terms of negotiation!

Lipski realized that this was something that the Germans had planned for a long time, and whether they came or not, the Germans would find countless reasons to put the negotiations on hold, and that the Germans were preparing for war.

Sensing that the situation was not good, Lipski hastened to inform the Polish government of preparations for war before returning to Poland. Rez? Khimigvi issued a defense ******, and Poland entered a state of emergency.

Even in this case, however, the British and French governments still have a glimmer of hope for peace, and they are even trying to restart the negotiation process, and the policy of appeasement has made the two countries afraid of war.

But the imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruel!

At this time, a large number of German troops had been assembled on the German-Polish border, and more than 64 German divisions had entered the attack position, and another 14 divisions were waiting to be sent to the front line as reserves!

In the afternoon, Hess decided to start the attack at 4:30 a.m. the next morning, September 1, 1939!

Sitting in the Chancellery, Rudolph? Hess was shaking, wondering if he was excited or worried.

He wasn't Hitler, he wasn't as crazy as Hitler, so more often than not, he was prone to making himself afraid.

"Forget it, since it's been decided, let's take it one step at a time!"

Determined again, Hess decided to activate the battle plan that had been drawn up, and Operation Grewitz officially began to prepare!

At 8 o'clock that night, on the German-Polish border, which was still relatively quiet, dozens of German SS soldiers were hurriedly changing into Polish army uniforms that they had gotten out of nowhere, and then sneaked into the night.

The SS soldiers, dressed in Polish army uniforms, suddenly appeared in the German border city of Grewitz, and after a few symbolic shots, the German border guards immediately gave up their resistance, and several prisoners of war from the camp were escorted to a radio station in Grewitz, also in Polish uniforms.

Then, the station began to make a sudden announcement, the first half of which was a jumble of gunfire mixed with Polish shouts.

Moments later, the gunfire died down, and a man's voice was heard on the radio, making baseless insults to Germany in Polish, which was not fluent.

After a four-minute speech in Polish, gunfire rang out over the radio again, and silence returned.

But the silence didn't last long, and after just an hour, all the radio stations in Germany began to broadcast urgent news: "Germany has been attacked by the Poles!" ”

At 1 o'clock in the morning, when the incident had already begun to ferment, and even some newspapers had added late-night editions and had already carried photos of the so-called 'Polish invaders' who had been shot dead by German soldiers outside the radio gates, Rudolf, as the head of state of Germany? Hess finally stepped up!

He began to address all of Germany via radio.

"When we repeatedly offered peace, the Poles rejected our sincerity!"

"When we were repeatedly trying to avoid war, the Poles adjusted their military deployments, issued war ******, and they were preparing for war!"

"While we were trying to avoid conflict as much as possible, the Poles attacked our territory!"

"At this moment, we will no longer endure it, Germany has been invaded by Poland, the great Germany will not continue to endure it, we will fight back in self-defense!"

"Our army is ready to go, we will return the bomb with bombs, drive the invaders out of Germany, and drive out any land that originally belonged to Germany!"

"The war has begun, and I need you! Stand up, great German people! ”

……

The radio is broadcasting Rudolph over and over again? Hess's speech, the soldiers entered their respective attack positions in the night, Li Ling watched the people around him discussing the abomination of the Poles, and he himself muttered a little in his heart.

He knew very well why it happened, and it was no different from history, except that the speaker was replaced by Hitler and Rudolph? Outside of Hess, there is no difference!

That's politics, that's the power of propaganda!

As the first large-scale foreign war after the reorganization that Germany will face, Guderian, the founder of the Blitzkrieg, is as excited as most soldiers at the moment.

At this time, it was obviously impossible for him to continue to stay in his 19th Panzer Corps, this was not his style, let alone the way he wanted, he was at the forefront, he was going to personally command the German tank units created by him to charge into battle!

After explaining the specifics, Guderian left the military headquarters and went to the 3rd Panzer Division, the only pure tank unit under his command, where he was going to witness the first appearance of the blitzkrieg in the history of world warfare!

At the same time, the German High Command was getting busy with only two hours left before the planned start of the war, and they needed to check the communications of the various units and make sure that they were fully prepared!

On the Luftwaffe side, Air Marshal Volkbil sat in the headquarters, and this time, he will command his air forces to provide unprecedented and powerful support to the various army groups, this is his first battle!

The navy was more relaxed, because Poland itself had almost zero naval power, and Poland would not even have an outlet to the sea if it were not for the Danzig Corridor, which was forcibly assigned to Poland after the end of World War I.

The "Herstein", which had arrived in Danzig in the name of an exchange visit, had already sent shells into the chambers of the ship's guns at this time, just waiting for an order!

But all these troops were waiting, and only one unit had already entered Poland, and they were the German special forces "Brandenburg Force", which had entered Poland at this time, and their purpose was not to start a war or sabotage, but to prevent as much as possible the destruction of their own factories and mines by the Poles that might occur after the war began.

The Great War is imminent!
