"We have to create an external environment for Germany that is suitable for its development and that it can be maintained for a long time, which is not a task that can be accomplished in a short period of time, and in the present situation there is not enough time left for Germany.

The first strategic preparation we need to make now is to continue to expand the armed forces on the basis of reorganizing and improving the existing forces.

In order to achieve the ultimate strategic goal, we must draw on every force that Germany has at its disposal, both human and material.

Now at the most critical juncture in Germany, I have decreed that any official, regardless of his rank or reason, or in whatever form, will be subject to a scrutiny investigation of state secrets on suspicion of corruption or waste of state resources, and that if the crime is true, it will be severely punished as a crime against the German nation. ”

Xu Jun's tone became cold, mixed with the undoubted majesty that made the atmosphere in the venue solidify again.

"It's all about expanding the army, we have to expand it, and a strong army can not only deter our enemies and buy us precious time, but also allow us to continue the next step of our strategy.

While we know that force cannot solve all problems, we will not hesitate to use force if necessary. ”

As soon as Xu Jun's serious words fell, a small discussion sounded at the scene, and the Führer's words made the adrenaline of all the officers present begin to secrete a large amount, and now there is nothing more stimulating to these professional soldiers than fighting.

Although many of them had expressed misgivings and worries about Germany's rash start of war before the war, some even explicitly expressed their opposition.

But when the war really broke out, after these generals tasted blood and victory, the previous worries and concerns were completely left behind by them, and many people were surprised to find that they were more and more enjoying the excitement brought by the battle.

Somewhat similar to the actual situation, the historical German official corps was also intoxicated with this feeling.

The difference is that the noble members of the officer corps in history have given up the reserve and pride of the officer corps while gaining the needs and satisfaction of their own interests.

Like fish hanging from a fishhook, they resisted twice and then obediently fell into Hitler's grasp.

Germany's early victories and the enormous benefits they had gained from them had made it impossible for them to think rationally.

This situation remained until after the German army suffered a crushing defeat on the Eastern Front, when the "rationality" of these guys seemed to suddenly awaken, and this "rational" thinking swept through the Wehrmacht like wildfire.

And the most "rational" of them even began to carry out the action of overthrowing Hitler, which is really incomparably "admirable".

To tell the truth, Xu Jun was very disdainful of the performance of some members of the German ** official corps in the late stage of World War II, he was a great Führer when he was victorious, and he became a national thief when he failed.

What is awakening, what is confused, in Xu Jun's view, is completely an excuse to shirk responsibility, in the eyes of Europeans, justice and evil are just labels hanging on the victors and losers.

"My Führer, I still can't believe that with the present strength of the German army it is not enough to cope with the situation at hand. Personally, I think that the existing strength of the German ** team is enough to undertake the mission you have given, and besides, as you said earlier, our resources are not abundant, and I don't know if the current Germany can still withstand the pressure caused by the expansion of the army. ”

It was Feng who spoke. Loeb, a conservative professional veteran, Xu Jun is well aware of the old guy's character, and his objections are more out of nature than from reason.

"You'd be wrong if you thought so, Commander Loeb."

Xu Jun glanced at Loeb coldly, and the old guy subconsciously shrank his neck.

"It is an indisputable fact that the forces we have are absolutely not sufficient to accomplish what we are going to achieve next. Let me tell you what our next step is......"

Xu Jun swept the scepter in his hand.

"After talking about it for so long, I think everyone here must be eager to know what our next exact goal is."

Xu Jun looked around the venue, and the officers all sat upright and looked at him, their eyes flashing with longing.

"We are going to sweep the whole of Europe in one year's time, remove all dangers, whether hidden or exposed, at once, and build a safe and secure rear for Germany.

All hidden dangers that could threaten the peace and stability of Germany and Europe were eliminated. Any element of instability, whether national or national, religious or belief, must be eliminated if there is any sign of threat.

This work is much more difficult than you think, and inevitably requires the use of force.

In addition, we will have to regain the confidence of the defeated countries during the year, and this issue must be dealt with by political means, but at some point the necessary cooperation from the military will be required, and the German army will play a key role in solving certain difficult problems, for which the high command will soon give clear orders and relevant documents to the troops carrying out this task.

At the same time, we must defeat Britain and its allies once and for all, and I think everyone knows the importance of this issue, so I don't need to remind you of it.

After defeating Britain and its allies, we will take advantage of the situation to wrest control of the sources of resources and supply channels that Germany lacked from the areas under their control.

If we don't have a strong military force, the only way to accomplish this strategic vision now is to use force, and the troops stationed in the British colonies are not Boy Scouts, not our diplomats who can bluff them with gummies. ”

When Xu Jun said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the generals below immediately lost no time in bursting into laughter, and the tense atmosphere of the meeting relaxed again.

"This is the most military target, but it is also the temptation we cannot resist the most. Resources, what we need most are resources.

Minerals, energy, transport hubs, military locations, and even national and regional influence are the things that Germany most desperately wants to acquire.

The defeat of the British government would lead to the loss of control and protection of its resource-rich colonies and dependencies. This is our best chance, but it is also a severe test of our strength.

Germany's continued viability will depend on the ultimate ownership of the origins of these resources. Again, this is an opportunity for other great powers, and if any powerful foreign government wants to intervene at that time, I think we will have to prepare for a great war for the good of the Empire.

I think you should all understand that if two countries are to conflict over issues of such substantive interest, it will be very difficult to resolve them peacefully through diplomatic means.

The value of the existence of the army is reflected here, how to safeguard the interests of the empire, I bet that the pressure on the shoulders of the German ** team will be very heavy at that time. Now, Marshal Loeb, you see, the German military forces are simply not capable of achieving these goals, because only two of these tasks can consume all the mobile forces at our disposal. ”

Xu Jun looked at Loeb indifferently.

"I see, all according to your will, my Führer."

Loeb nodded respectfully, but Xu Jun knew that he must still be a little unhappy.

His Excellency William Knight Loeb had participated in the Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China, but he was also a strong veteran who adhered to his personal values.

He has always had little affection for expansion wars, believing that the value of the army should be reflected in the defense of the homeland.

Feng. Loeb was a master of defensive strategy, and loved the garrison as well as the mountain infantry.

Loeb, who was straightforward, could hardly win Hitler's affection, and he also didn't like Hitler.

Hitler lost his son to the war he waged, and when he learned the tragic news, Loeb was furious and immediately accused Hitler of being an idiot, a liar and a criminal.

As a result, he was hated by Hitler, and Loeb almost died of old age with Brünnberg.

If it weren't for the fact that Hitler couldn't find a suitable candidate before the outbreak of the Western Front, he would not have been reactivated. Loeb was assigned as the commander of Army Group C, and Loeb, who was good at fortification operations, was also good at overcoming the fortified defense system, and Army Group C's goal was the Marzinot Line, and anyone would be frightened in the face of the pile of reinforced concrete fortresses.

Although the famous army general is now deceived by Xu Jun's knowledge and is willing to be loyal, his deep-rooted character has not changed.

His Excellency decided when he had time to teach the glorious knight a lesson, to let him know what it means to ride a tiger and the profound truth behind the famous saying that a grasshopper is tied to a rope.

Xu Jun withdrew his gaze from Loeb's face, and then continued loudly.

"With regard to our upcoming campaign against the British, the High Command is now making final preparations for the battle, and soon formal orders will be issued to every unit participating in the battle.

Special training for the attacking troops is also underway, and those who are not fully prepared must hurry, after all, we cannot afford to keep the British waiting too long. Yes, my General Bock. ”

Xu Jun to Feng. Bock cast an inquiring look.

"Yes, my Führer. My troops are in the process of final training and preparation, and for a week at most, the morale of the troops is very high, and they will be ready for battle as soon as the training is completed. ”

Bock replied aloud that his three infantry divisions had just been assigned to the 1st Assault Group and were now being trained for transfers near Calais.

"Very well, General Bock, what about General Rundsteadt?"

"My Führer, everything is going according to your will, the troops are well trained, and they are ready to fight."

Rundstead replied respectfully.

"Very well, I have read your report, whether we will be able to defeat the British is now an undoubted question, after the landing, the army will have a very heavy task, so the army must make comprehensive and meticulous preparations."

"Yes, my Führer."

Feng. Brauchitsch hurriedly replied loudly.

"The next thing we want to discuss is the plan and the details of the war against the British, and I want this plan to be as flawless as possible, knowing that we can only have one chance. Map, Dogen. ”

"Yes, my Führer."

Dogen stood up from the seat beside Xu Jun, he walked quickly to the wall of the conference room and opened the curtain on the wall, and a huge and delicate military map appeared in front of everyone.

"Britain! This country has been playing with Europe for three hundred years. ”

Xu Jun stood up and walked to the map, pointed to the famous island with his scepter, and said: "The British are very focused on taking advantage of the contradictions between European countries to provoke disputes and gain benefits.

She has never allied with the number one power on the European continent, but instead will unite with other continental countries to attack that number one power at all costs.

For hundreds of years, poor France occupied this target, and again and again Louis XIV, Napoleon, the kings of France fell into the machinations of the British.

Britain would not allow European unity, especially if France was in the lead, which would mean her demise.

In a word, Britain is the ultimate source of unrest on the European continent.

In order to weaken the countries of the continent, she used various means to provoke war after war, and took those opportunities to slowly strengthen her influence on the European continent.

To tell the truth, the British means were very stealthy and very beautiful, and the noble English gentleman was very good at using vile and vicious tricks, and on this I admit that the Germans could never have done better. Not to mention the Germans, there is no other country in Europe that can do extremely shameless things with such grandeur and justification as Britain. ”

"It's really limited to Europe. is also an island country, and the one in Asia is really world-class, and I am afraid that the British Empire will not be able to catch up with the level of despicability and shamelessness. Xu Jun sighed secretly.
