685 Wealth of the Nation
"Pick up the surplus canned fish, pick up the worst taste, the worst quality, and transport it to the labor camp." Li Le said to the official in charge of this regard.
"Tell Hess that we also have to take into account a series of post-war effects, so we should improve the treatment of labor camps when conditions allow." Li Leke is not a murderer, on the contrary, his soul is missing a lot of Hitler's violent genes.
If he could get things done, he wouldn't even want to kill too much. After all, what he wants is a "war to divide the world"; Not an evil war against humanity.
The banners and slogans of the Righteous Division may not show any superiority in the aftermath of the summing up, but it is very useful to gather strength when the war is going on.
This is also the reason why ancient China emphasized the importance of war righteousness such as "the teacher of the king and justice".
A just war can unite people's hearts and influence the direction of the war in the process; You can also put gold on your face as much as possible after the end of the war.
"There is an old saying in ancient China, which says that war should set up a banner of justice, our war needs such a banner, and the people also need such a banner!" Li Le looked at each other and said word by word.
"We are fighting a just war, and we are fighting a just war to defeat those countries that hinder our development for better development." Li Le stretched out his hand and began his speech: "We are a peace-loving nation, not the source of evil!" ”
Although people who have read history well know that war is a continuation of politics, unjust wars are often caused by the inducement or pressure of the righteous side.
In modern history, only the war of Japan's invasion of China was pure and full of evil. Because China did not have the living space to oppress Japan, nor did it try to attack Japan first.
As for the exploitation wars such as the Opium War, in fact, in every respect, they are more decent than Japan's war of aggression against China.
Of course, this is definitely not to make any excuse for these wars against China, but only to say that it is slightly better than Japan's war of aggression against China.
But Japan's attack on the United States was not this kind of pure unjust expansion. To a large extent, it was the United States that forced Japan to fight this war, and it was not Japan that insisted on going its own way.
In the same way, the Second World War launched by Germany was actually a war of revenge in the First World War, and it was also a war that got out of control caused by the United States behind the scenes.
"In essence, Germany's invasion of Britain and France and the partition of Poland actually had historical reasons, and they were not unjustified and arbitrary." He gushed and told his men about history.
"We partitioned Poland because Poland participated in the dismemberment of Germany, occupied a large piece of German territory. They are evil and have taken over our sacred land, and of course we will fight back! He said this with some hatred on his face.
"And the attack on Britain and France, on the one hand, because Britain and France took the lead in declaring war on us, and on the other hand, we avenged the Treaty of Versailles." At the mention of that treaty, the Führer's face was full of disgust.
However, even if Li Le's reasons are very good, Germany still does not stand on the moral high ground.
At least when it came to the Jews and prisoners of war, Germany was brutal and inhumane.
This stained the National Socialist Party and the SS too much, and seriously affected the righteous nature of the German war.
Li Le is now beginning to ease the contradictions in all aspects and try his best to cloak Germany in a cloak of kindness.
After all, he wants to unify Europe, after all, he wants to govern the people of the occupied territories. Under such circumstances, if you continue to use concentration camps and labor camps to kill innocents indiscriminately, you will lose points for your own image.
"So now we have to divide the food and let the prisoners of war work for us in better conditions." After the speech, Li Le began to talk about dry goods.
Giving prisoners of war and laborers something to eat so that they could work better – work in exchange for food, that's what the camp is all about.
The dividends of the war brought with it countless laborers who did not need money, and also brought with them countless lands. The land needs to be developed, and of course the labor force must also be used.
"My Führer, we have already fed 3.9 million people in the labor camps, and we will need to increase it a little more in the future to the level of 4.1 million people." The head of the agricultural department replied proudly.
The number of laborers actually controlled by Germany was more than 900,000 in size in the concentration camp system for Jews alone.
At this moment, the population in German detention, including British, French, and Russian prisoners and Jews, totaled more than 5.7 million.
In fact, as a result of Le's moderate tactics, some Jews have been moved to labor camps, and the size of the camps is decreasing.
Moreover, the French and some British prisoners have been returned, after all, peace treaties have been signed between several countries.
However, this is nearly 6 million people, which is the total number after the return of some prisoners, so the food pressure is still huge.
Germany provides only two-thirds of the food for the detainees, which means that most of them are only able to eat two or even one meal a day.
This standard is already very low, and many Jews are even suffering from various diseases due to malnutrition.
The lethality rate in the camps was very high, and although Li Le tried his best to improve the attitude of the German leadership towards the Jews, the results could only be said to be very mediocre.
"In any case, let's raise the total amount of food to 5 million...... After all, the number of captives is still growing. Li Le looked at his subordinates, and he was embarrassed to make higher demands.
You must know that the Führer's angry revenge is also an important reason why many German high-level leaders support the Führer. In fact, many people still resist raising the treatment of prisoners of war for no reason.
"Understood, my Führer...... Should priority be given to ensuring the labor camps of the cooperative and the food of the cooperative labor force? The officer asked questions.
In the eyes of this official, the Jews who were imprisoned in the concentration camps were not human beings at all, and the prisoners of war were merely slaves of hard labor.
"Make it a priority to ensure the food supply of the collaborators, but try not to starve to death, that is the wealth of the Empire." Li Le could only change his angle and remind his subordinates not to go too far.
Sure enough, the official immediately understood what the Führer meant, and happily agreed: "Yes, my Führer! We promise not to waste any country's wealth easily! ”
