Chapter 723: The Middle East Matters

Ciric had had this plan for a long time.

The territory that Germany will rule in the future is extremely vast, and because of the limited population of Germany itself, even if German women are encouraged to have children now, it will be eighteen years before they can become a rioter.

Therefore, now we can only think of another way, that is, to recruit a large number of volunteers in other obedient countries, which has already made a good start in France.

And as an ally, Italy is certainly more suitable, Ciric is not worried about their loyalty, but only about their combat effectiveness!

How can the Italian army have a stronger fighting capacity and be able to take charge on its own? The quickest solution is to send German instructors over and use the harsh German instructors to rectify their discipline and make them fight for honor instead of just fighting with the wind!

However, this will involve the issue of military power!

No ruler wants his armed forces to be controlled by others, and this depends on how much interest there is.

In addition to the killer feature of improving the combat effectiveness of the Italian army, Ciric of course also prepared other plans.

"There are quite a lot of British colonies, and when the war in North Africa and the Middle East is over, we can give a piece of the British colonies to Italy, what do you think?" Ciric continued.

As a defeated country, you don't deserve to have a colony!

At the beginning, during the First World War, Germany was defeated, and all the German colonies were divided up by the victorious countries! Now, when Britain is defeated, the British colonies, of course, cannot stay!

Keeping the French colonies now is more of a requirement for stability, after all, Germany is not free to take care of more aspects.

The conditions for increasing the combat effectiveness of the Italian army, plus the distribution of a part of the British colonies to Italy, were good enough.

Mussolini agreed, that's for the best, if Mussolini didn't agree ...

Now, in Reinhardt, a complete plan has long been worked out, Mussolini's son-in-law is much easier to control than Mussolini, if Mussolini is not interested, then let him disappear!

Historically, Hitler admired Mussolini quite a lot, and always regarded Mussolini as a revolutionary mentor, but Ciric didn't care, this self-righteous guy would only drag his feet.

Instead of this, it is better to kill him and replace him with the right person to be the leader of Italy!

Ciric was not going to let Italy ruin its entire plans for a world war.

"Okay, in that case, then we can agree." Mussolini said.

It seems that Mussolini is also a person who understands, and Ciric nodded in agreement, which is the best, saving himself from raising the butcher's knife.

Increasing the combat effectiveness of the Italian army, plus giving Italian colonies, these conditions, already satisfied Mussolini's appetite!

Mussolini agreed, but then he suddenly remembered the purpose of his visit, not to discuss the leadership of the North African army? Now, it seems that there is no need to discuss it.

If the German instructors were sent to guide the training and combat of the Italian soldiers, then the supreme command must have been that of the German generals.

Sure enough, Ciric continued: "The Middle East is the most important source of raw materials for Britain, as long as we lay down the Middle East, Britain will not have the capital to continue fighting, and the whole world belongs to our Axis powers." ”

Until now, Ciric still admits Mussolini's claim that this Axis power is still very satisfied, Rome and Berlin, on one axis, this will be the axis of the world!

As a traverser, of course, Shirek knows better, in later generations, the Middle East is the world's powder keg, where every move will be related to the overall situation, the reason, of course, is the terrible huge oil reserves in the Middle East!

Now, of course, in the Middle East, there is already oil.

The first successful oil field in Iraq was discovered in 1928 by British, French and American oil companies. A similar situation occurred in Saudi Arabia in 1932 and in Kuwait in 1934, where oil was also successfully found by the Western Petroleum Company.

It's just that the current oil production in the Middle East is not very high, and no one will realize that all the underground in the Middle East is black gold.

Controlling the world's most important oil producing areas and turning the Mediterranean Sea into its own inland sea are all crucial for Ciric, as a resource-starved country, Germany needs to constantly grab resources if it wants to win this war!

The war situation in North Africa and the Middle East is very important, and now, landing on the British mainland is also quite important!

The landing on the British mainland is already close at hand.

Almost all the British believed that the German landing site would be in Calais, and the troops stationed in various parts of the British mainland were gathering towards Calais.

The dark clouds of the Great War are enveloping the whole of the United Kingdom, and the official residence of the British Prime Minister at 10 Downing Street is the center of the whole United Kingdom.

"I have important information to report to the Prime Minister." Outside the prime minister's office, an intelligence officer hurriedly spoke to the secretary outside.

"I'm sorry, the Prime Minister has other things to do, and it's not convenient to meet him now." The secretary said.

Something else? The intelligence officer was extremely anxious, what else was more important than the latest battle report? According to reliable intelligence, tonight, the Germans are going to attack across the sea!

The German units remaining in Calais, all the equipment is ready, just today! At a time like this, you can't wait any longer!

He pushed the secretary away, and then, with a big foot, kicked the door: "Prime Minister Churchill, there is an urgent military situation. ”

When the door opened, he was stunned, there was no one inside!

No wonder the defense outside is so lax, only a secretary can kick the door open effortlessly!

"Where is the Prime Minister?" He asked anxiously.

Now, when Germany is about to attack, the Prime Minister is not in the Prime Minister's Office?

"Secret." The secretary said: "You have seriously obstructed official business, if there is anything, you can leave it to me and convey it on your behalf." ”

"The Germans will attack tonight, and the battle for the defense of Great Britain will begin tonight!" The intelligence officer said: "This is our intelligence officer, who risked his life to send it, and must report it to the prime minister!" ”

The secretary was stunned for a moment: "Okay, I will quickly convey this information to the prime minister." ”

It's just that the prime minister can handle it on time? You know, right now, the Prime Minister is not in the UK at all! As a secretary who knew Churchill's whereabouts, he also felt a lot of pressure at this time.
