The rising sun slowly rose over the horizon, Marseille resumed its daytime hustle and bustle after a night of silence, and the German soldiers everywhere did not bring much chill to this harbor city, on the contrary, the French people living here seemed to have a very good relationship with these German soldiers, and a few French children would even jump into the dogs of the German patrol to play, and the German patrol soldiers with loaded guns stood by and turned a deaf ear, and had no intention of stopping them.

After a large number of Italian troops and German armoured troops entered eastern France, Marseille, a secluded port city in southern France, became a German occupation zone, and unlike the Germans in Poland, the German troops stationed in Marseille seemed to be very friendly, and they often invited young French girls into their barracks for balls. And the residents of Marseille, who have always been scared, did not notice that these German soldiers had shot the French at will, on the contrary, these German soldiers were also polite when they went out to buy things, if it were not for the German uniforms and weapons they never left, the French in Marseille would have almost forgotten this damn war.

In fact, not all Maasai people liked these German soldiers, and there were two groups of people living in Marseille, one was the Jewish refugees who had moved from the German-occupied areas, and the other was the wounded Allied prisoners of war sent down from the front. With Jewish refugees having their own camps and prisoners of war having their own camps, both of which were readily open to journalists, the German High Command decided to use powerful propaganda to change Germany's role in the war.

After the wake-up call sounded, the prisoner of war camp with the red cross flag hanging high on the flagpole in the center of the camp began the hustle and bustle of the day, the prisoners of war crowded on the edge of the sink to wash their faces and brush their teeth laughed loudly, and some washed prisoner of war soldiers lined up in a neat queue under the leadership of the officer to prepare for breakfast, if you can ignore the German soldiers standing on the high wall, people who enter this prisoner of war camp for the first time will think that this is a logistics training camp for the coalition forces at all, because the coalition soldiers here are too relaxed, There was no such decadence and restlessness as a prisoner of war should have.

"Major Gais, here's your to-do list for today, you have to do it before dinner, see what tools you need" Karina, dressed in an SS uniform, entered the POW camp with a folder. Busy shaving was the highest-ranking British Major Gaiss in the prisoner of war camp, according to the rules of the German army for prisoners of war, Gaiss was the commander of all prisoners of war in this prisoner of war camp, and Karina, who issued the work plan on behalf of the German army, only dealt with Gaiss and sent assignments.

"No problem, we have all the tools, we just need to get a few wrenches" Geiss glanced at the list of work plans that Karina had brought, and today's list was two-thirds less guns and a few more Sherman tanks and trucks equipped by the British army. An experienced officer like Gaiss only needs to look at the weapons sent for dismantling to know the intensity of the battle, and the battle-damaged tanks are sent to the prisoner of war camp for dismantling, which is the second time this month, I really don't know what kind of weapons the Germans used to destroy so many Sherman tanks.

The wounded in the camps were given medical treatment and medicine, and the Jewish refugee camps were fed, all of which journalists could see everywhere, and German soldiers did not stop them from conducting random interviews. In fact, there was no corporal punishment or trampling on the dignity of Allied prisoners of war in the prisoner of war camp in Marseille, because almost all of the Allied prisoners of war who were sent here were lightly wounded, and they were all lightly wounded who could move around on their own, and the German army that managed the prisoner of war provided these prisoners of war with due treatment and respect, and these Allied prisoners of war would dismantle the scrapped weapons according to the requirements of the German army, and transport iron for the German steel mills established in France.

The exchange of work for food and dignity was the result of discussions between the German troops stationed in the camp and the senior officers of the Allied prisoners of war when the Marseille POW camp was established. Eight hours a day of work in exchange for the prisoners of war minimum food security, if the prisoners of war want better food supplies or medicine, then it will have to pay more labor, as long as the prisoners of war work in peace, the German army guarding the prisoner of war camp does not mind letting the prisoners of war live a better life, in order to encourage the prisoners of war to work overtime, the German army even built a screening hall and a bathhouse for the prisoner of war camp, and the captured Allied officers also enjoy the supply of cigarettes and beer.

The same scene was played out in the Jewish refugee camp a few miles away from the camp, except that there were much fewer German guards, and the Jewish refugees were guarded by locally hired Frenchmen. "Tracy, these are yours" The red-faced Martin Bob dumped the guns in his trolley in front of Warehouse Three, and with his cart, there were already three carts of bloodstained firearms in the open space in front of Warehouse Three. Tracy, who doesn't like to talk, just nodded silently, and beckoned the women who came out of warehouse three to bring all the guns on the ground into the warehouse.

Clearing and primaries of Allied firearms seized by the Germans, a rule for Jewish women in the newly established Jewish refugee camp in Port Marseille, where Jewish women gathered were only given food and water after completing their daily quota, and who had to work more than others if they wanted to receive medicine and treatment. Male Jews were daily under the watchful eye of the local French, dismantling the scrapped firearms picked out by the women, as well as the scrapped vehicles towed back from the front, which were also sent back to the furnace to be remade into weapons for the front.

The camps also had very strict working standards, and only Jewish refugees who had completed their quota for one month in a row were given the opportunity to board an ocean-going ship and move to Burma, otherwise they would have to stay in the smelly camp until they died. The Jews, who knew that if they fled and died, they could work well with little supervision, and that if they wanted to live well, they had to work harder, so that they could get more food to fill their stomachs.

The smell of the camp is not due to the arrival of refugees, but the camp has been rebuilt from a large marina market, which was originally a fish market in the port of Marseille, so there is a strong smell of fish all day long. Tian Jing and Karina, who had been temporarily drafted from Berlin, were once again the administrators of the Jewish refugee camp in the port of Marseille, where they were to take in more than 500,000 Jewish refugees with the German army, which had already occupied two-thirds of France.

Unlike the loose management of the Bremerhaven Jewish refugee camp, when the Germans first established the Marseille port refugee camp, they once killed more than 100 Jewish refugees at once for a rifle hidden by Jewish refugees, so the Jews gathered in this refugee camp were very peaceful. As long as they have finished their work for the day, they can enjoy food, water, and conversation, and they have less freedom than usual.

The Germans had seized countless weapons from the Allied forces, and the eastern part of France had become completely occupied by the Germans, and a large number of weapons and trophies brought back from the front line by wagons and trains were piled up in the port of Marseille, including those Allied tanks and trucks destroyed by the Germans in Bazooka. The German troops who fought fiercely with the coalition forces exceeded 1 million people, and the daily ammunition consumption was astronomical, and the German troops who landed in Britain had begun to use British weapons in fierce battles with the British army, and the German high command that was about to be crushed by the supply of materials finally adopted Zhao Zhi's proposal and used Jewish refugees to disassemble iron tools and make weapons in France on the spot to supply the front line.

The Jewish refugees and Allied prisoners of war only dismantled the iron from the discarded guns and scrapped equipment, and had no access to dangerous goods such as bullets and gunpowder, so even if they hid the guns intact, they did not pose a threat to the German army, but gave the Germans an excuse to shoot Jewish refugees and prisoners of war. "Field, last week's progress was very good, we must maintain this speed, only in this way, the arsenal can ensure the delivery of ammunition to the front line" Lieutenant Cook commanded his soldiers to unload the supplies to the refugee camp from the truck, bring food and medicine when they came, and pull away the iron tools sorted out the previous day when they left, this is what Cook and their daily work is in.

"I know, we will finish the work according to the schedule" Tian Jing smiled very reluctantly, always touching those guns with stained blood, more than thirty percent of the women in the refugee camp are already working with illness, if the work continues to increase like this, Tian Jing is afraid that these sick Jewish women will not be able to afford to get sick. Karina kept holding Tian Jing's hand and didn't let her tell the truth to Cook, the Germans would not treat these sick Jewish women in vain, if they really knew about it, I was afraid that they would directly drag these sick Jewish women out and throw them into the sea.

After integrating the Allied prisoners of war and Jewish refugees in Marseille, the dismantled iron was sent to the steel mills, while the German-controlled steel mills in eastern France were made day and night, and all the specifications of steel needed for the arsenal could be found in these steel mills. According to the statistics of the German High Command, the German-controlled areas were gathered enough resources to support an expedition against the Soviet Union, provided that the Jews in the German-controlled areas must continue their current work, otherwise the German reserves of strategic steel will not be able to make ends meet.
