Chapter 423: 423 Starlight

81_81266 "Now that we are underestimating the determination of the British side to go to war. Accardo looked at the tired old man Augustus who had hurried to Rotterdam and said with some frustration.

Augustus, walking beside Accardo on crutches, coughed a few times before speaking: "My Führer, war cannot unilaterally envisage the enemy's reaction, and even at this moment it is impossible to speculate when the British will surrender. ”

"General Rundstedt was exhausted by the tragic street fighting in Norwich, and Army Group A was exhausted in his hands. If we continue to fight like this, our operations on British soil will turn into a hard tug-of-war, and this kind of fighting with constant loss of troops is not what we are good at. Accardo said worriedly.

Augustus saw Accardo's entanglement and reluctance, he knew that the Führer seemed to be willing to give up the British war situation, and just this afternoon, he had asked several operational staff officers and military advisers, and briefly discussed the possibility of transporting Army Group A to Iceland.

In fact, Arcado was even more reluctant to see a tug-of-war than Hitler, and his assistant professor of history from the 21st century was more opportunistic and quick to solve the problem. Therefore, when the war entered a brutal battle in Britain itself, his first thought was not to rely on brute force to win the battle, but how to use another method to break the deadlock and change the shape.

Compassion is not in charge of soldiers, and righteousness is not wealthy. Accardo, who came from a small background, still lacks the atmosphere of a million people being wiped out in a chatter and a joke, or he still doesn't have the consciousness to see hundreds or thousands of soldiers' lives as a set of numbers that reflect the situation of victory and defeat. Therefore, Accardo was very sensible and did not interfere with the military's problems in the formulation of the campaign, and his intelligence was that he was able to clearly recognize his own shortcomings and disadvantages.

When, as the Führer and not the general, brought out this kind of intolerance and compassion from the depths of the soul of the little man, this disadvantage became an advantage, and this kindness of putting the interests of the people first and caring for the life of every soldier became a concrete manifestation of the phenomenon of being close to the people, flesh and blood, and loving the people. Inadvertently, Accardo established an image of a near-perfect leader of the country, and was loved and embraced by the German people in the wildest.

"My Führer. Changing the battle plan now will only make our initial investment meaningless. Augustus had to remind Accardo not to do anything stupid: "Once the morale of the army is shaken and it is difficult to control it, our attack on Britain will face the danger of total failure, and at that time all you can do is to die with Germany!"

Although he was a little flustered and a little unable to accept the losses of the German army in England itself, Arcardo obviously did not completely lose ground, and of course he knew what the consequences would be if the landing in Britain really failed--he had watched the movie The Destruction of the Empire countless times, and if that day came he could perform it word for word. The point is that he really doesn't want to shoot his own head while biting on potassium cyanide, after all, he didn't pay so much to repeat the tragedy.

"I see what you mean. Accardo nodded: "At 3 o'clock this morning, I had to personally send 30,000 soldiers out of the port of Rotterdam again to fight bravely for the Empire on British soil, and I hope that this kind of thing will come to an end." ”

Augustus nodded, knowing that Accardo was not completely lost and retreated, he was relieved, so he thought for a moment and said: "My Führer, the British are just as uncomfortable as we are, and they are even worse than us. At this time, it is not surprising that they surrender in the next second...... The point is that whoever can persist more, whether we or them, and who can persist until the end, will become the hegemon of the whole world. ”

"I came to you this time, in fact, there are more important things to discuss. "Accardo found that the mess in Germany was really a bit devastating, the war situation on the front line was enough to make people anxious, and the tattered things in the back were not worry-free.

Augustus was in charge of the empire's economy and all kinds of small things, what was the natural way Accardo worried about, he smiled and said, "Is the Führer worried about the first batch of national debts and Mifu coupons?"

"Yes, Enrique has come up with a large sum of money to show their sincerity, and I'm hesitating whether to use it to pay off the national debt and the Mifu bill, or to continue to grit my teeth and keep snowballing. Accardo said with a wry smile.

He did not rush to walk with Augustus to the Führer in Rotterdam, but walked around the former Dutch Queen's Palace.

Without waiting for Augustus to answer, Accardo continued to talk to himself: "Before repaying the Mifu vouchers and government loans, we all used the war profits to fill the hole. Poland was the beginning of the pit, and Norway's mines were carved up by these business magnates. However, this primitive partition was extremely inefficient, and Poland's light industry and agriculture were okay, and Norway's mining industry was quite bearable. But I can't give up the heavy industry cake of France and Belgium anymore!"

In another time and space, Germany's use of the industrial base of France and Belgium was so low that it did not establish an effective plan for the industrial utilization of the occupied areas on a large scale until the defeat of the war, and wasted the industrial base of Belgium, France, the Netherlands, and other regions, so that from beginning to end it was challenging the industrial capacity of the whole world with the power of one country's industry -- if it did not fail, it would really be intolerable.

"It seems that the Führer has his own plan, so I, the Prime Minister, can fully cooperate. If the Führer doesn't mind, you can tell me about the plan and let me see if there's anything I need to add. Augustus said with a smile.

"Give the cake thrown by the Jews to the capitalists and plutocracy. Accardo nodded and said his plan: "The industrial production capacity of France and Belgium and the Netherlands must be in the hands of the countries of the empire! I have already chosen a candidate, this person I have cultivated for a long time, and I have observed it for a long time, and I have hidden it until today, just to eat the industrial cake of the entire French occupation zone in one bite." ”

Augustus laughed, then squinted his eyes and said, "There are many people who have recommended Speer to me, saying that this person's organizational talent is very good. As a result, the Führer has been putting him under the hands of his father-in-law, Jeylin Nike, Kasia, and he has not been used or abandoned, and I thought that the Führer had some prejudice against this person, but I didn't expect that the Führer had already set up a stage for him here...... What a love you have...... I can't compare, I can't compare!"

"I don't mind talented people giving them the stage they deserve, and I'm willing to build a suitable stage for such people! So after Anna recommended you to me, I even took out the post of prime minister that had already been abolished, just to give you a suitable position?"

"Hahahaha. My Führer, the one who really suits my position is the Prime Minister of the Empire, not the Prime Minister. Old man Augustus brought up the subject again.

Naturally, Accardo will not continue to talk about this topic, the matter of calling the emperor is not something he is willing to do, at least not what he is willing to do now - Britain is not destroyed, isn't it a complete joke to call the emperor?

"Now that you've guessed that I'm going to use Speer, take care of the future Minister of Industry of the Reich. Accardo folded his hands and continued to walk forward: "I hope that this empire can really become a stronger and stronger country." ”

Augustus watched Accardo's thin but tall back walk in the bleak wind, but a blazing fire rose in his heart. He continued to follow Accardo on crutches, muttering as he went, "Starting with Sickert, Karl Bentz, Streismmann, Hindenburg...... There are so many Germans who love this country so much, and they are revitalizing it in one way or another. How can this country not be strong?"

Accardo's heart is also constantly exclaiming: Merkel, Speer, Bosch, Krupp, Augustus, Jelin, Nike, Cassia, Fanny, Mercedes, ......; Brauchitsch, Raeder, Rundstedt, Lütjans, Guderian, Rommel, Manstein, Liszt, Kluger...... Anyone born in this age is lucky, because he can stand side by side with so many bright stars, and anyone who is born in this age is unlucky, because even the most dazzling stars will be small in the light of these people.

There was a sentence that Augustus held back in his heart and did not say it to Accardo, and he followed the Führer slowly, as if every problem would be solved, as if the rise of Germany was unstoppable. He silently recited this sentence in his heart, extremely reverent: "My Führer, in this Germany, where there are many heroes and talents, you are the brightest star after all." ”

At 3 a.m., Accardo stood on the dock and threw away the page of his speech that he had been preparing for a long time. Standing on the high platform, he said only one word to the soldiers who were about to board the ship and sail for the battle: "Promise me!

This was probably the shortest and least ambitious pre-war mobilization speech. Augustus stood beside the Führer with a wry smile, trying to maintain the calm demeanor that a prime minister should have.

Unexpectedly, however, Accardo's words were answered by a shout of "Long live Führer Accardo!" so loud that it seemed that the British people across the Channel could hear it. These soldiers were willing to die for their country and for their Führer, just like the British across the Channel. Augustus raised his right hand along with the frenzied soldiers, shouting the name that would forever be etched in his heart: "Long live Accardo Rudolph!"
