Chapter 1523: Norman? Goering's provocation

The dinner that German Führer Hitler had carefully prepared for Tang Qiuli's secret visit to Germany in the banquet hall of the Reichstag was filled with a friendly and cordial atmosphere, and Hitler himself was even more energetic and sincerely happy to be able to meet Tang Qiuli again.

With Hitler's strength, prestige and status in the Nazi Party, and the German party, government, and military officials, Hitler often said that "my decision is unquestionable and irrevocable!" ”

Before the Führer came to a conclusion, everyone was accustomed to being silent, but there were people who spoiled the atmosphere everywhere, and Goering was one of them, probably in the Nazi Party, the only one who dared to contradict Hitler was this Norman? Mr. Goering.

However, it is a pity that Goering's countertone is not for the great cause of Nazi Germany, let alone for outright advice, more often, it is for his own selfish interests, or simply to show off or to fight for power.

And with Hitler's character, he was able to tolerate Goering's arrogance, selfishness, and even disregard for the overall situation, which is a difficult mystery in history, and later historians also have their own opinions.

Hitler knew the virtues and habits of his close comrade-in-arms, and Goebbels and Himmler had already reported to him in detail what happened at the airport, so Hitler was afraid that Goering would fire guns indiscriminately and say things that would make Tang Qiuli even more embarrassed. I could only keep glaring at Goering.

Goering attended this welcome dinner with a belly of anger, and was humiliated at the airport during the day. He thought about it carefully, and felt more and more that this Chinese was deliberately embarrassing himself, and with his position in the German and Nazi parties, Tang Qiu had no reason not to know his name?

In the banquet hall, when the Führer introduced himself, the expression of this Chinese seemed to be no stranger to him. Then what he did at the airport must have been deliberate.

In Germany, he had never been humiliated in this way, including the Führer, so the purpose of Goering's participation in the welcome dinner was to seek an opportunity to get back the lost field. As for the other colleagues and comrades in the party, the days are long, and some have the opportunity to take revenge.

Right now. The opportunity came, the Führer was somewhat skeptical of Tang Qiuli's explanation, Goering didn't mind adding fuel to the fire, and was more willing to see Tang Qiuli's embarrassment, I, Goering, am not a magnanimous person, and I will take revenge when I have the opportunity.

And Tang Qiuli's heart became wary of Goering's words, "What is Golin's purpose." If it's purely for today's airport matter, that simplicity proves that this guy is a person without a city government, if not, then you have to take it seriously," Tang Qiuli smiled slightly. He asked lightly, "Oh! Marshal Goering, what do you mean by that? ”

Goering pretended not to see Hitler's eyes, and then Tang Qiuli's words, said: "General Tang, I am a frank person, and I am also a soldier, in terms of the combat effectiveness of the British army, it is really vulnerable, taking the Battle of Dunkirk as an example, when our German army surrounded more than 400,000 British and French troops in the English Channel, the British and French troops showed full weakness. ”

"In the ensuing war of annihilation, our German army, relying only on the strength of the air force, annihilated more than 400,000 British and French allied troops, which was the most elite British and French troops on the European continent, and this battle laid the foundation for our German Empire to sweep across the European continent." …,

"On the contrary, the British army in the South Asian subcontinent is not even second-rate, with a strength of only a hundred thousand people, and General Tang commanded hundreds of thousands of well-equipped troops, and failed to occupy all the Indian land under the condition of absolute superiority, which cannot but make people doubt and puzzle, in the later stage of the campaign, the British no longer have the slightest ability to resist, which makes it even more difficult to understand your motives!"

"As far as my personal judgment is concerned, it is nothing more than the following reasons: first, I have doubts about the combat effectiveness and morale of your soldiers, and I doubt the command ability and courage of General Tang and your commanders, and secondly, does General Tang have such a concern that our German army, after the destruction of the British, will compete with you for control of that place in a certain area?"

"So, you deliberately keep certain economic interests to the British, in order to keep the British in check with our German army, in order to realize some of your strategic ideas, or ambitions? As for the Americans, I personally think that they are still struggling to deal with the Japanese in the South Pacific, how can they be a potential threat to you? ”

Goering's tirade shocked the German dignitaries, including Hitler, and this guy was too open-mouthed, not to mention how far-fetched his analysis was, and he tried his best to distort it, and the remarks themselves were a great insult to General Tang in China.

Hitler was even more annoyed in his heart, he didn't expect that Goering would release so many marginal words, especially the inference later, it is even more nonsense, Germany and China, one in Europe and the other in Asia, separated by tens of thousands of kilometers, what kind of conflict and intersection of interests to talk about, the world is so big, and it is not something that the German Reich can swallow alone!

At the same time, Hitler had a hint of vigilance against Goering's words, and the meaning of sowing discord was too strong, what did he mean to sabotage the alliance with Tang Qiuli? Or did Goering have some other conspiracy?

There was another person, so angry at Goering's words that he almost couldn't help but spit on him, the chief of the German General Staff von ? Field Marshal Strongs, unlike Goebbels and Himmler, who focused on party affairs and intelligence, and did not care much about the affairs of the army, was different from himself, and was involved in the designation of the program, as well as the specific command.

I have personally experienced the development of the campaign, its twists and turns, and the dramatic changes that followed.

Goering didn't mention the Battle of Dunkirk, but when it came to it, von? Marshal Strongs, he couldn't help but scold his mother, at the beginning, it was this guy, as the commander-in-chief of the Air Force, who urged the Führer to hand over the heavy task of besieging the British and French forces to the Air Force, and let out wild words, the wings of the Luftwaffe will be covered in the skies over the English Channel, and will become a nightmare for the British and French!

Moreover, he also advised the Führer to order the army to stop the attack and let the air force do it alone, but as a result, after several days of heavy fog, Goering's planes could not even be lifted into the air, and if it were not for the Tang general in front of him, who sent several telegrams to explain the stakes, the Führer would not have made up his mind and ordered the army to go into battle.

The most important thing is that the battle of Dunkirk, which can achieve a great victory, is still General Battle, at that time, he was only a colonel of a tank regiment, regardless of the danger of violating the Führer's order, without any orders from his superiors, with the armored force of a tank regiment, assaulted the beachhead of more than 400,000 British and French troops, and then led the attack of the First Panzer Army, and even the entire offensive of more than 200,000 German troops.

The final result of the Battle of Dunkirk, I don't know what happened? If you listen to the words of this guy who brags about not paying taxes, more than 400,000 British and French soldiers would have run safely to the British Isles, and they could still be blocked by the German team at the door of their homes? Can your Goering's plane bomb the British mainland unhindered? Dream on! …,

Chief of the General Staff von? Marshal Strongs, his face turned red with anger, if it weren't for the presence of the Führer, he would definitely expose the nonsense of this guy Goering, and in front of General Tang, the party, he dared to tell this big lie, which was really a shame for the German general!

Hitler secretly screamed in his heart, he still knew Tang Qiuli, knew that this was a young general who was very proud in his heart, and had achieved more brilliant achievements in Asia than any German general.

Hitler was just about to play a round, but it was too late, Tang Qiuli's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he exuded a murderous aura all over his body, "Smack!" He slammed the table and got erect, and the sound was so loud that it attracted the surprised eyes of everyone in the banquet hall.

Mei Xue and Liu Xinlan, although they were chatting and laughing with these German ladies and celebrities, their attention had been paying attention to Tang Qiuli's side, and seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became tense, they hurriedly apologized to them and hurriedly walked over.

After Tang Qiuli slapped the table, he tried to calm down, although he was extremely angry, but he did not lose his mind, if he was entangled with Goering on the issue of the Indian campaign, it could only be more and more black, and he also saw that Goering was deliberately provoking mutual trust between himself and Hitler, and if he argued, it would inevitably involve his own strategic ideas.

A battle of words and tongues will ruin a big thing, don't entangle with this guy, attack a little bit, didn't Goering talk about the Battle of Dunkirk, then good, today I will let you, a guy who has more than enough success and more than defeat, lose his face and make up his mind, Tang Qiuli exhaled a long breath and calmed down.

First glanced at the whole audience for a week, and then, looking directly at Hitler, said: "Your Excellency the Führer, you have all seen the attitude of Marshal Goering just now, and also heard his words, if there is no clear statement on this matter, I am afraid that the Führer and the generals will also have a lot of confusion in their hearts, to borrow Marshal Goering's words just now, we are all soldiers, and we speak frankly and straightforwardly!" ”
