Chapter 763: A Defeat

The fourth shift is complete, and the background of the previous starting point collapsed

The arrival of the Soviet Union put Germany under unprecedented pressure. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info: In fact, the hand of the 76th Airborne Division was completely unexpected by everyone. Kohl would never have imagined that the Soviets would be so openly involved in the internal dispute in Germany. For the Federal Republic of Germany, however, the nightmare has only just begun.

Just as the Federal Republic of Germany was preparing to concentrate its firepower to retake Berlin, the United States suddenly and unilaterally announced the withdrawal of its troops from German territory. will no longer be involved in internal disputes, and the White House's hand is too much for Cole to guard against. The withdrawal of the Americans put the Bundeswehr under no small pressure. Germany, already understaffed, now faces its most daunting problem.

Either choose to confront each other and maintain a state of division for a long time. Either choose to attack in an unfavorable situation, of course, the final outcome is unknown to everyone. But without the cover of American armored forces and artillery units, it was not easy to take Berlin.

And this is only the first step in retaliation by the United States, and there are many more small actions that will cause Cole to be a headache.

"The Americans are putting political pressure on us, and the Soviets are putting military pressure on the Federal Republic of Germany, and the two are really singing and harmonizing, thinking that they can bring us to their knees with a tough attitude? As long as Germany does not give in and continues to attack under pressure, even the United States and the Soviet Union will not be able to help us. ”

The Soviet foreign spokesmen on the screen are no different from those spoken by the United States before them, and without exception they will implement the way in which the two sides will return to the negotiating table to solve the problem on foreign issues. Cole fell into the set trap if he agreed. Will Jonishkis spit out the Berlin he eats? Cole believed that he had ghosts.

He could almost surmise that the United States had colluded with the Soviet Union to carry out this plan against Germany. The diplomatic pressure on Cole is enormous. If he continued to attack Berlin, he could be accused of being the one who started the war. After all, whether it was East Germany, the United States or the Soviet Union, they were all acting as defenders of peace.

It's as shameless as snatching your stuff and then reasoning with you. So Kohl made a resolute counterattack, and his approach was to attack Berlin with heavy troops, and transfer the second-line troops to Schwerin and Dresden, ready for the outbreak of conflict. And then take the capital of Germany at any cost.

Ill-prepared Germany was ready to lose both, and even if the Federal Republic suffered heavy losses, it would never let go of the German Democratic Baath Party.

But apparently Cole didn't expect President Mario to make a small move behind his back, which seemed to be beyond his imagination.

A phone call broke the peace in Bonn, and when the head of the Prime Minister's Office reported the sad news to Kohl, he had clearly not recovered from his surprise.

"What do you say? The top official of the United States is ready to meet with the leaders of East Germany? What the hell are they thinking! ”

Cole's surprise is beyond measure, which is equivalent to the United States changing its interest camp in silence. Such an ending is even worse for Cole. He could tolerate U.S. inaction, but he could never tolerate the U.S. colluding with East Germany.

"What the hell are these stupid Yankees thinking! What good will it do them to let a civil war break out in Germany! ”

Herzog sat across from Cole, and he had turned a blind eye to the old friend's complaints. At the beginning of the riots, the other side was advised to intervene in the East German army as soon as possible to suppress the riots. But Cole rejected the proposal on the grounds that it would avoid provoking the Soviet garrison, and now Cole would taste the consequences of his strategic mistakes;

"Peace talks are the only step that the United States has given us, Prime Minister Cole. Do you really think that declaring war on Berlin and the GDR would be good for us? Herzog questioned him, "When the time comes, we will either end up facing a DAP armed to the teeth, not counting their large number of supporters." Either that or the joint forces of the Soviet Union and the GDR, that outcome would be a nightmare for us. ”

"But the peace talks are different, we sacrificed only one Berlin, but we saved the whole of Germany."

Herzok hopes that his old partner will be able to recognize the facts, that it will not be good for them to continue to consume, and now he just wants to save the situation and then think about other things.

"Cole, you have to think about it. Once the IDF starts attacking the peacekeepers, we have no way out. And Germany is not just facing one country, but also a regime manipulated by two superpowers. The game was not put on a fair playing field from the start. ”

Herzog patted Cole on the shoulder and said, "Give up, my friend." You are now irrational, and it makes no sense to bet all your hopes on the Battle of Berlin. ”

Everything Herzok said was the truth, and it was because of his stubbornness and stupidity that the current situation had been led.

"And now that the Federal Assembly is very dissatisfied with your policy, I fear that if it continues like this, I am not sure what they will do."

"What do you say, even the parliament is starting to be dissatisfied? What qualifications do they have to be dissatisfied? Cole looked up, somewhat unconvinced by Herzok's words.

"Yes, it's not rumor. And do you think it's necessary for me to lie to you at this point? Herzog sighed, he shook his head, "The whole East German riot was premeditated from the beginning, and there may even be a joint intervention of the United States and the Soviet Union behind it. They are going to unite to strangle the EU in the cradle, Prime Minister Kohl. From the very beginning, however, your performance ...... It's terrible, so, you know what's next. ”

Herzog's last sentence was the most lethal to Cole, and Cole, who suddenly woke up, found himself in a state of embattlement. As a politician, he knows very well what the consequences will be if he continues.

"Enough, don't talk about it, I know it all."

Cole, whose soul was emptied, sat on the sofa in prostration, he really needed to be quiet now, and there was no way to accept such an embarrassing ending.

Kohl is most proud of the fact that he used economic and diplomatic means to reach heights that were not achieved by the Second and Third Reichs, and to form a highly unified Europe.

And now, it seems that the glory of the Federal Republic of Germany is coming to an end. (To be continued.) )
