Chapter 458: Hitler Who Made Up His Mind

"What? Can Li Tie provide the military deployment of the Russians? Chief of Staff Manstein was shocked to hear the news, and it was not only him, but everyone present except Heinrich, who had received the news beforehand, was incredulous.

Although everyone has dealt with Li Tie more or less for so many years, but when they heard Heinrich suddenly say such exciting news, let alone these important German ministers, even Li Tie's old friend Hitler Führer looked at Heinrich with wide eyes.

Everyone looked at him closely, wanting to hear his further explanation. After all, if this news is true, then it is worth it for them to pay for anything.

Heinrich was actually quite weak-minded, and only listened to him patiently explain to the bigwigs: "In fact, as early as two years ago, when we just started to exert force in Europe, Li Tie informed me through secret channels, saying that he could get all the important military deployments of the Russians in western Russia and even the whole of Russia. ”

"Then why didn't you say it earlier?" Manstein asked anxiously.

"Who dares to believe that what Li Tie said is true, so I didn't report to the Führer." Don't look at the intelligence minister of the Rishiri Empire in the sea country, he is the general leader of the Gestapo, but at this time, the Gestapo has not yet reached the point of power in the future. At this time, Heinrich was only a lieutenant general, several levels smaller than the marshals present.

If it weren't for the fact that the information he was in charge of was too important, I am afraid that it would not be his turn to attend such a high-level meeting.

"And you're talking nonsense now?" For some reason, Manstein seems to be looking at Heinrich unpleasantly today, and almost every inquiry is initiated by Manstein, and the tone is extremely unkind.

Heinrich, sensing Manstein's unpleasantness, reported more cautiously. I saw him say in a soft tone:

"At that time, Li Tie said that we would quickly defeat the European countries, and even very optimistic that we would occupy France within one or two months. Then we will attack the British.

He said in his secret report that our attack on Britain would be blocked. At that time, we will only have two ways to go, one is to fight hard and lose both, and finally let the Russians choose a bargain. One is to take advantage of the power of a great victory to directly attack Russia.

In the event of an attack on Russia, he was willing to provide a map of all the military deployments in the western part of Russia, as well as the numbers and armaments of the various units, and, if the conditions were suitable, he could also tell us the locations of several important warehouses of armaments and materiel in the western part of the country.

So that we can drive straight into these bases. With these favorable conditions, it will be easy for us to defeat Russia, even if we want to destroy Russia forever.

However, at that time, we had just started annexation operations in Europe, and if nothing else, I thought it was a fantasy to say that we could occupy France in a month or two and force France to surrender, so I didn't take Li Tie's secret letter seriously at all.

It wasn't until we finally reached the dilemma that Li Tie said that I had to tell Li Tie about this secret report. For the Führer's information. After Heinrich finished speaking, he looked at Hitler Führer with pitiful eyes.

And after listening to Heinrich's report, Hitler also sighed deeply: "You are not to blame for this matter, no matter who hears Li Tie say such a thing, he will not believe it." Take France for example.

Before attacking France, don't say you don't believe it, even I don't believe it, we will win against France in such a short time. When our Panzer Army made its way around the Maginot Line to Paris, I thought Guderian was lying.

After that, he bypassed Paris and went straight to the English Channel, and I believe that we really defeated France. Defeated all the great powers of Europe.

It was also at this time that I thought that I could take advantage of the high morale and directly defeat Britain in one go. Who knew that the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse.

I didn't expect Britain to be so tenacious, and it turned from a blitzkrieg to a tug-of-war, and now it is more likely to be a lost battle in a deep quagmire. So I was more inclined to turn to Russia at that time.

After all, the Russians have been preparing to attack us behind the scenes, and if we don't strike first, our war will fall into passivity.

Now the people of the country have just been fed and clothed, if they can defeat Russia. Then we, the Germanic peoples, will all live a prosperous life. Our people will no longer be afflicted by poverty and suffering.

It's just that the strength of Russia is obvious to everyone, and I have never been able to make up my mind to attack the Russians. Until a few months ago, Heinrich reported that the Russian army, despite its large numbers, was severely lacking in military training.

In particular, Stalin carried out the Great Purge for nearly ten years, and the current Russian army has long been out of combat, plus he is important to those political workers who can only do face-saving projects, so I think we can take a risk and attack Russia.

Although they have a large amount of supplies on the border, we have just signed a non-aggression pact with the Russians. The Russians thought we were trying to keep them safe so that we could attack Britain with all our might.

So the current Russia, from top to bottom, from soldiers to officers, and even Stalin himself did not think that we would suddenly give up attacking Britain and attack them in Russia.

Therefore, if we attack Russia now, we can achieve a full-scale surprise attack from psychology to reality. And with the strength of our Panzer Army, as long as we act quickly, we can kill and injure a large number of Russians in a short period of time.

If we have Li Tie's map of the deployment of military forces in various regions of Russia, then we can save at least half of our efforts.

and twice as fast as the victory over the Russians. What do the marshals think? ”

Hitler, who delivered a tirade, gave rare play to the spirit of teamwork. In the past, all military operations were arbitrary and arbitrary, and he would not have asked for other people's opinions at all, but this time it is different, because Russia is too strong, and Hitler really has no bottom in his heart.

"Your Excellency, I know that Li Tie has a very close relationship with our empire, and it can be said that Li Tie has made great efforts to re-emerge our Third Empire. And Li Tie himself is also the best political friend of our party and all of us.

But I still don't think he has the skills to get all the military deployment of the Russians. Moreover, Heinrich also said that Li Tie said that as long as the conditions are right, he will hand over this military deployment to us. But I don't know what he meant by the so-called suitable conditions.

You must know that Li Tieke is recognized as the most business-savvy person in the world, and how big the profits from our occupation of Russia are, if he doesn't get a piece of the pie, he will not be the richest man in the world, and he is recognized as the most business-savvy person.

Therefore, my opinion is to accept Li Tie's request conservatively, and we must not fully agree to Li Tie's request, otherwise it is very likely that after we occupy Russia, he will open his mouth widely, and as a result, he will get more benefits than us Germans, and the gains will outweigh the losses. ”

After all, Chief of Staff Manstein is old, so he doesn't think about it, and at the same time, after so many years of hard work, he knows deeply that there is no free dinner in this world.

Li Tie was so enthusiastic about helping Germany, he always felt that Li Tie had some big conspiracy behind him, but the personal relationship between Hitler Führer and Li Tie was very good, and anyone who dared to slander Li Tie would not end well.

Therefore, even if Manstein knew that Li Tie must be hiding something bad, he didn't dare to say it too bluntly. It's really hard for Manstein anymore.

You must know that the Germans have always been known for being old-fashioned, old-fashioned, and admitting death, so that Manstein could turn a corner with such a status old stubbornness to remind Hitler to beware of Li Tie's sugar-coated shells.

On the one hand, because Hitler is now really in the ascendant of prestige, almost comparable to God in Germany, anyone who dares to doubt Hitler, who dares to oppose him, will be torn to pieces by the German people.

Another aspect is to reflect Li Tie's position in the heart of Hitler's Führer, after all, Li Tie began to fund Hitler more than ten years ago. The millions of marks a year were spent on the activities of Hitler's Natsu Party.

It is precisely with Li Tie's strong financial help that Hitler can get to this day smoothly, and Li Tie secretly helped Hitler kill President Hindenburg, which has been considered by Hitler to be the biggest secret between him and Li Tie.

The two are already good comrades-in-arms who can stick knives in each other's ribs. It's a pity that Hitler didn't know that Hindenburg actually died of natural causes, Li Tie just remembered the specific date of Hindenburg's death, so he took advantage of the topic and sent the drug king to Germany to make an appearance, but Hindenburg really died within a few days. This allowed Hitler to ascend to the throne as he wished.

That's why Hitler always valued Li Tie so much. However, Manstein, the most important marshal under his command now, doesn't seem to believe Li Tie's words very much, although he has always trusted Li Tie.

However, Hitler was also skeptical about whether Li Tie really had this ability, because it was simply impossible? It is impossible for Comrade Stalin, the supreme leader of Russia, to remember all the military arrangements of the Russian army throughout Russia.

But what Li Tie said was true, and he really wanted to kill the Russians.

In the end, Hitler, who really couldn't resist the huge temptation of defeating Russia, couldn't help but ask Heinrich: "Okay, don't sell it, I've decided to attack Russia, all of you are the core personnel of the empire, you don't have to hide it, just say, what conditions did Li Tie put forward before he was willing to hand over the Russian troops to us." ”
