Chapter 118: Purging the Republic
In wartime, the CMC does not draw up a specific battle plan, it is the work of the General Staff Headquarters. Ye Zhiqiu proposed at the meeting that he wanted to trick the whole country in order to maintain the authority of its chief executive.
The CMC bigwigs are responsible for decision-making choices at the strategic level, as discussed at this meeting.
The war in Europe has become more and more obvious, and it is estimated that Chamberlain is the only one who is still jubilant about bringing back "the peace of a generation".
Germany tore up the agreement several times, annexed Austria, invaded Czechoslovakia, and Italy, another country in the Axis bloc, had already taken Ethiopia in Africa into its arms, and the old Maozi, whose territorial ambitions could never be satisfied, also made unreasonable demands on his little brother Finland to cede territory and dismantle the border fortresses.
In such troubled times, it has become a luxury to be alone, should you choose to be a companion with Britain and France or an alliance with Germany and Italy to establish a third axis? It's a conundrum. At least for several bigwigs in the conference room of the Military Commission during the wartime of Weiqing Pavilion, it was a big problem. It is very rare that the two factions of the six people other than His Majesty quote scriptures and classics, argue with each other, and in the end they even blush, refuse to give in to each other, and accuse each other. This surprised Major General Long Zhou, who attended the meeting of the highest military commission for the first time!
Army Commander Jiang Yunzhi was an absolute pro-German faction, and the exchanges between the Han and German armies before the Kristallnacht night were quite pleasant in many aspects. The rigor and absolute obedience of the German soldiers are very fond of Jiang's black face, especially Erwin? Rommel, who served as commander of the German FΓΌhrer's guard unit, had a deep attainment in army command. After being introduced by Qian Zhihao, the German general who was equivalent to Captain Qian's position and Jiang Yunzhi formed an irreversible friendship, and even after many sand table deductions, the two generals who sympathized with each other almost beheaded chickens, drank blood and wine, and made friends for eight worships. Reading through Rommel's book "Infantry Attack" and the experience of visiting the German army many times, Jiang Yunzhi deeply felt the strength of the German army. Weapons and equipment aside, the training of the three million German Wehrmacht was in no way inferior to that of the Han Royal Guard. Chiang even judged that if there was a war, the armies of other European countries would not be able to withstand the German attack for six months.
His Majesty nodded frequently in appreciation. Of course, Zhong Yi knew that Jiang Yunzhi's judgment was quite accurate. In terms of land alone, only Germany and Japan can be compared, one is invincible in Asia, and the other is sweeping Europa. The difference is that the army equipment of the little devils is really shabby, and there are really no other decent armies in Asia. But His Majesty also admitted that if the Imperial Japanese Army was also equipped with the Leopard and Tiger styles, the other troops would not know that Lao Maozi's gray cattle were not the opponents of the little devils.
Thinking of this His Majesty's whim, if he occupies Japan in the future, it must be fun to get some reliable equipment for the little devils, and then throw them in Siberia to fight against Lao Maozi. Anyway, the population of the little devil and the old Maozi is quite large, so it should be a burden on the earth!
What is somewhat surprising is that the national Lin actually has the opposite opinion with Jiang Heimian. During this period of time, the commander-in-chief, who often mingled with Wang Yizhe and other former officers of the Northeast Army, heard them talk about the vast colonial resources of Britain and France and the huge potential of American industry, coupled with the congenital shortcomings of Germany's geographical location, and the theory that Germany would be defeated in a protracted war also made the commander-in-chief deeply convinced.
His Majesty also nodded incessantly at Quanguo Lin's speech, and his eyes were full of appreciation. There is no way, what Comrade Lao Quan said is also true.
But the others are a little blindsided, what is Your Majesty's attitude?
Hans, the commander of the garrison, had a very special affection for Britain, and he had always regarded Britain as his second homeland after studying at a military academy in Britain. Oh! God, am I going crazy? β
Unlike Jiang and Quan's fact-based analysis, Hans stood in line completely from his inner feelings, which made His Majesty's gaze suddenly cold, "General Hans, do you think this is your own idea or the idea of the majority of white people in the empire?" β
After hesitating for a moment, Hans still let his firm gaze meet the Han Emperor, "Your Majesty, I believe this is the idea of the vast majority of white people!" After all, Britain has existed as the suzerainty of this continent for nearly two hundred years, and most of us are descendants of immigrants of British descent, although everyone loves the country now, but no one can deny the special feelings for Britain in their hearts. β
General Hans is an old minister, and when he joined the Red Guard Corps in the golden city of Kalgoorlie, he is definitely a veteran of the imperial military, otherwise he would not have joined the wartime military council as a white man and became one of the military giants.
Seeing Hans and His Majesty's gazes intertwined in the air, everyone else seemed to see sparks colliding in the air, but Hans never shied away. With the growing strength of the empire, the population of the Han people gradually increased, and there were already some signs of exclusion of people of other colors among the people. Even in the eastern state of Yuzhou, a gang called the Hong Gang emerged, which specialized in kidnapping and robbing wealthy whites. Hans was a little afraid, very afraid that if this continued, the white people of the empire would be ostracized by His Majesty, like those Jews. Looking at the misery of the Jews in Europe, Hans felt that he had to do something!
But His Majesty was the first to withdraw his-for-tat gaze, and turned his head to call the native secretary over, and could not hear His Majesty's whisper to Vivien, but Hans suddenly had a bad feeling.
Others also think it's a bit off-topic, this is a meeting of the Military Commission, how can you get involved in the internal affairs of the empire? And it is also the most sensitive issue of race.
The conference room suddenly fell from the tension of the dispute just now to a frightening silence, and Hans seemed a little restless, could it be ......
His hunch was accurate, and after a while, Vivien hurried back, holding a thick folder in her hand. Gently placed it on the conference table, and then stood quietly behind His Majesty.
No one dared to take a few more glances at Vivien's wonderful figure, and everyone knew that it was His Majesty's forbidden body. But this time, since the indigenous girl walked in, everyone has been staring at her...... Well, staring at the folder in her hand.
No one knows what's in the folder, let alone why such an important meeting of the Central Military Commission is halfway through, so why it went off topic.
His Majesty did not open the folder, but his gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the room in turn, and finally stopped at Hans's distinctive Western face, "General Hans, can you tell me about the Liberal Democrats?" β
A soft and gentle question, so that Hans immediately fell into a semi-collapsed state, "plop", in a hurry, the chair behind him fell out and couldn't care about helping him, Hans who stood up hesitated for a moment, and then said in a dumb voice: "Your Majesty, I didn't join the Liberal Party!" β
Zhong Yi smiled, the long-lost smile of the king!
"Don't be nervous, General Hans, and I'm sure you don't even know as well as I know about this Liberal Democrat!" Ignoring the military bigwigs who opened their mouths in astonishment, His Majesty opened the folder and read it alone: "On November 5, 1938, four days after the German Kristallnacht, the Free Democratic Party was founded in the Sydney City Opera House in Yangzhou; Ten days later, the first batch of sponsorship from the British Cabinet was received in the amount of 100,000 pounds; At present, the main members of the Liberal Democratic Party are: party leader: Prime Minister Sandra; Deputy Party Leader: Andy? Lawson, a colonel officer from the British Military Intelligence Agency, responsible for intelligence in the South Pacific region; The other deputy leader was supposed to be General Hans, commander of the garrison corps, in parentheses, which had been refused; The main personnel were twelve officials of all levels of the imperial government and business people, known as the Twelve Round Table Representatives. At present, more than 7,000 party members have been secretly recruited among the white people, and the main sources of funds for their activities are two parts: the sponsorship of the British cabinet and political donations from the party. The Republican Party's founding platform is to seek the dominant position of white people in society and safeguard the political and economic rights and interests of white people. The ultimate goal is to establish a true constitutional monarchy on the South China continent, moving towards democracy and moving towards ......"
Hans, who was already sweating profusely, walked up to Zhong Yi, "Your Majesty, please forgive them, I am willing to resign from all positions and leave the military to become an ordinary farmer!" β
Zhong Yi raised his head with interest, and looked at the sweat dripping on Hans's face seriously, "You resigned?" Forgive them? What is the direct connection between this, you rejected them! You are a real military man, a qualified general of the Empire, why should you resign? β
"Your Majesty......"
"Don't say it, I'm not reading this to you, not asking you to resign! At the moment of the great enemy, I want to force the resignation of important generals in the military, is this no joke? I want to ask you: Do you think you are up to the task of purging the Liberal Democrats by the Garrison? β
