Chapter 74 74 What to exchange for

Just as someone brought a pillow when he was sleepy, a family named Hadra sent a huge sum of money when the Wehrmacht was struggling to make ends meet. In the afternoon, a group of SS soldiers dressed in stormtrooper costumes stormed the old house of the Hadra family and killed all the people inside. Then came the news that the number two of the Hadra family, who was on a business trip to Munich to negotiate, was also killed in his car.

By the time the youngest member of the Hadra family was captured and killed in the basement of the Ruhr area, it was already a month later, but this did not affect the division of the family's property among the Wehrmacht.

Merkel, with the help of the White Lanhua Group, ate the entire Hadra family's industry in one bite and monopolized almost the entire pharmaceutical business in Western Europe, while the Wehrmacht received large sums of cash to expand its strength.

Although most people believe that the Nazis orchestrated the bloody massacre of the Hadera, there are still many well-informed people who have found clues that the Hadera's property had been divided among the Wehrmacht, that the killers who had hunted down Hadera's periphery had a large number of weapons, and that the grandson of the first hapless Hadra family had been captured by the Wehrmacht.

It's a pity that these well-informed people have kept their mouths shut, because the other pillar industry of the Hadera family, food, has made Accardo generously disperse, and these well-informed people have all gotten oil and water in this benefit distribution, so everyone has very tacitly ignored the many doubts about the whole incident.

Although many Jews were dissatisfied with Accardo's massacre of the Hadra family, they were in a fierce conflict with Hitler's Nazi Party and did not want to erect another strong enemy like the Greater German Party, so they chose to forget about the incident after receiving assurances from Krupp, vice chairman of the Greater German Party, that they would "no longer target the Jews".

Because of the financial support of the Wehrmacht, once again the money was "squandered" without knowing the cost of firewood and rice. Not only did they pay off a large part of the arrears owed to various companies, but they also purchased a lot of advanced weapons and equipment, and they even used some of the money to fund the development of the latest secret fighter plane.

However, at this moment, Accardo was receiving Tukhachevsky, the new commander of the Leningrad Military District and the head of the Soviet delegation to Germany, who had secretly arrived from the Soviet Union. The Soviet military leader single-handedly facilitated the secret cooperation between the Soviet Union and Russia, and personally supervised the preparation of several large arsenals that Germany had aided the construction of the Soviet Union.

He advocated the development of the Soviet Union's first-generation tank, insisting that the tank copy the French Renault F-17 tank, and abandoning the drawings of the No. 1 tank provided by the Germans. He personally supervised the Soviet Union's imitation of German military cars, perfected the rail and road systems in the Soviet Union, and even participated in the preparation of the production of Soviet-class battleships and Tsar-class cruisers. And because of his many contributions, he was secretly known as the "Accardor of Soviet power" by German intelligence.

It was at the newly established Joint Staff Headquarters of the General Headquarters of the Wehrmacht that two "Accardos" representing different interests of different countries met.

"Accardo! It's been a long time! Your promotion is much faster than mine! Now you are a lieutenant general in the Wehrmacht! It's incredible!" Soviet-style boldness, Tukhachevsky hugged Accardo in front of him hard, threw his fur hat on the sofa very casually, and laughed loudly: "Do you have any wine? Last time you went to the Soviet Union, we didn't treat you like this." ”

"Not here. Accardo smiled, and then learned the thick tone of General Hamstein: "Yes and no, our commander-in-chief, General Hamestine, instructed: Those Soviet friends are too good to drink! Our wine will be drunk!"

"Hahaha. Tukhachevsky laughed heartily: "Since there is no wine, then compensate me from somewhere else, to be honest, I came this time to ask you for help." ”

Here we are! Accardo laughed in his heart, "There is something I can help with, just say!Aren't we friends?" ”

"This time, I brought three cooperation agreements: one is for our army, and we want to buy your drawings for armored reconnaissance vehicles, tanks, trucks and other equipment; one is about industry, we want to continue to exchange oil and anything else for your precision equipment, especially fine processing equipment and the latest machine tools; and finally, it is a naval cooperation agreement, we can help you hide submarines and drivers, but I hope you will send submarine manufacturing experts to assist us in the production of Soviet submarines. ”

Accardo calculated a little in his mind, although the oil reserves found in the Middle East are huge, but now it is difficult to extract and transport, in fact, Germany and many parts of Europe are more dependent on Romanian oil fields and Soviet oil supplies. However, Germany, which has received a large amount of oil because of technical cooperation, and especially the Wehrmacht, which is not prepared for large-scale mobilization in the near future, has enough oil reserves.

So he raised his head, looked at Tukhachevsky and said: "As far as cooperation is concerned, we have been going on for many years, we have sold you all the technology that we can provide to our Soviet friends, and to be honest, you can also appreciate the great progress of Soviet heavy industry in the past two years." ”

Tukhachevsky also knew that Germany's appetite had been almost fed by the Soviet Union over the years, and it was no longer enough to continue to provide basic raw materials to arouse the appetite of the Germans, but he had to work hard again with the mission of the motherland: "You know that the Soviet Union's foreign exchange reserves have almost been exhausted, and the only things we can provide are ore and oil, and if you want, food, leather and even wood." ”

"A lot of the technology is in the hands of the German private sector, and the technology that our Wehrmacht has mastered is almost sold, and I don't know how many companies are interested in energy, but I can help you with the statistics. Accardo said with a sigh.

"Thank you. Tukhachevsky nodded, and then said: "Comrade Stalin is most concerned about this naval expansion plan, and he very much hopes that you will visit the Soviet Union again and agree to help the Soviet Union build submarines." We know that in the last war, the German submarine forces were very good, and we, the Soviet Union, were also fervently interested in having an underwater force that could deter the enemy. ”

"I don't think there should be a problem with that, but the submarine is a high-tech weapon, and to re-prepare the docks and ports in the Soviet Union, we helped the Netherlands produce 760-ton submarines, and if you're interested, there's a 250-ton submarine, which we call an offshore killer. Accardo introduced with a smile.

"We all want it!" Tukhachevsky, like a child who has seen a toy, said eagerly: "We all need this!"

"I can get in touch with the shipyard in Kiel and send someone to the Soviet Union to help. Accardo nodded and said, "It's not me who is blackmailing, our German technicians are paid quite well, and they are well paid." The Kiel shipyard will also lose a lot of high-tech talent as a result, and I hope the Soviets understand the price you will have to pay. ”

"No problem! We can convert it into oil, timber, ore, foodstuffs, and other things that Germany wants, and pay them directly to the Wehrmacht. Tukhachevsky happily promised: "We will buy from Germany 100 small submarines of the 250-ton class, as well as 20 large submarines of the 760-ton class." ”

Accardo raised his eyebrows, the appetite of the Soviets is really not small, armed with more than a hundred submarines in one go, it seems that the long-cherished desire to become the hegemon of the sea has always been buried deep in the hearts of the Soviets, not Khrushchev on a whim for a while: "No problem! I'll help you get in touch." ”

"In addition, we want to buy 3,000 BMW motorcycles, 300 new military trucks produced by Krupp, 500 Mercedes-Benz armored vehicles, 20 Mercedes-Benz luxury cars. Tukhachevsky thought for a moment and added.

Arcador laughed: "That's no problem, I'll let Merkel negotiate the price with you in a while." ”

"Mr. Merkel is a very respectable German friend, but he likes to ask for high prices that make us often distressed. Hearing the name Merkel, Tukhachevsky shrugged his shoulders helplessly and said.

"He asked for a price, and you didn't give it, did you? Asking for a price to pay back on the spot was originally a business method, and it didn't affect our friendship. Accardo said with a smile.

"You are right, may the Soviet Union and Germany always be friends!" Tukhachevsky said, standing up.

"May we always be friends. Accardo also got up to say goodbye: "Tomorrow I will accompany you to visit the Wehrmacht station on the outskirts of Berlin." ”

"That's great! I just wanted to see it. Tukhachevsky said very happily. The two hugged cordially and said goodbye reluctantly.

Leaving the back door of the Wehrmacht General Headquarters, Tukhachevsky ordered his adjutant: "Immediately send a telegram to the country, prepare the corresponding personnel, and prepare to copy the German submarines! In addition, let Kyiv and factories near Minsk send personnel to be responsible for receiving German cars and armored vehicles, dismantling and analyzing the samples, and copying them as much as possible!"

"Yes!" the adjutant nodded.

"Colonel Smith of England, please come to me!" Accardo stood on the windowsill and looked at the cars of Tukhachevsky and others in the distance, and instructed Captain Anna behind him: "Sue him, I have a large oil and timber business, and I hope that the British government and businessmen will be interested in these energy sources." ”

"Yes!" Anna agreed.
