Athens, Parthenon.

May is the peak tourist season in Greece, and the Parthenon, a place that used to be full of tourists, is now unpopulated, and the huge Acropolis of Athens is only a few people. This is also something that can't be helped, the Soviet Red Army has entered Athens, who is still in the mood to travel?

The Acropolis is located in the center of the ancient castle, on a limestone hill, which is the highest point of the city, and you can see most of the city of Athens from here. At this time, a few tourists in civilian clothes stood in front of the square in front of the Parthenon, looking in the direction of Metropolitan Street. This group of people is probably all the tourists on the Acropolis today.

Among these tourists, there are both Eastern and Western people, who seem to be white-collar workers in the company, led by two Orientals in their thirties. They usually use binoculars to observe the scene on the streets of the Metropolis, talking as they go.

Today is the time when the Soviet Red Army held a ceremony to enter the city, and now it is the Soviet mechanized troops that have entered the city, only to see a large number of T-38, T-39, T-40, IS-4, BMP-39 and other armored vehicles lined up in a neat queue, majestically driving through the metropolitan street.

The Communists organized large crowds to welcome them on both sides of the streets, brandishing the sickle, hammerhead, pen, pen, and flag of the Third International, holding banners and slogans in Russian and Greek, and shouting "Ulla, Ulla". Well, yes, the flag of the Third International is a sickle-hammer-nosed pen cross, similar to the Korean flag of the original time and space. This was due to the fact that the sickle hammer was preemptively registered by the CSO, so Comrade Ulyanov had to change it. ＾＿＾

"Hehe, the action of the Greek Communist Party is not bad, and it actually created a picture of the pot pulp to welcome the atmosphere of the king's master...... "The thin and tall Meng Yan put down the binoculars and laughed with a bit of mockery.

"Of course, in the future, this country will be controlled by the Greek Communist Party, can they not be grateful to the Soviet Union? If they rely on themselves, I am afraid that there is no hope in this life. The slightly chubby Li Xiaoren nodded.

"Greece seems to have fallen into the hands of the Soviet Union, and Stalin has played the whole world this time. ”

"It's not about playing the whole world, this is negotiated by the Soviet Union and Germany, and the Balkans will be divided into half of the Soviet Union. However, the Greeks were really unlucky, thinking that neutrality would be fine, and disaster fell from the sky. If they had voted for the Allies earlier, they would not have been so passive. ”

The two chatted for a while, and then walked down the mountain. These two are indeed Chinese, but they both work in large European conglomerates. Li Xiaoren is an executive of the British Godzilla consortium, while Meng Yan is an executive of the French Pioneer consortium.

The British Godzilla consortium and the French pioneer consortium are both upstarts who made their fortunes by reselling Xingke products, and after they have the capital, they have subsequently developed into high-tech conglomerates in their respective countries. By the outbreak of World War II, their business covered finance, banking, aviation, shipbuilding, electronics, machinery, locomotives, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, mining and metallurgy, shipping, international trade, and even light industry, textiles, agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery.

Both the Godzilla Consortium and the Pioneer Consortium are among the top conglomerates in their respective countries, and coupled with the high technology they master, their actual influence is higher than their total assets. Although the current war in Europe has a certain impact on their business, it is even greater for other consortia, because the main trading objects of these two consortia are the People's Revolutionary Union and the Western Treaty, and they have many channels in these two national groups.

Therefore, World War II was a good opportunity for them to expand their domestic power. Other consortia lost fifty percent, and they only lost one percent, so who would have the greater advantage after that?

....................................................................................

Of course, Li Xiaoren and Meng Yan will not come to see the Soviet Union's entry into the city, they have come to Greece for a special mission.

Of course, the Soviets and the Greek Communist Party, which had already taken power, would not give them face. No, as soon as they came down the mountain, they were surrounded by a group of Greek Red Guards.

"Gentlemen, now that the decaying Glücksburg dynasty is finished, the capitalists are not welcome in the people's Greece. Gentlemen, your factories are the property of the Greek people!" The Greek man at the head was Karagunis, and he was holding a document and said proudly: "According to the notice of the Revolutionary Committee, you must leave Greece by 12 o'clock on May 28th!"

This person turned out to be just a sheriff, and he used to know Li Xiaoren and Meng Yan, but at that time, Greece was a neutral country, how could he dare to be so presumptuous in front of British and French tyrants like Li Xiaoren and Meng Yan? But now it's different, the Soviet giant bear is here. He is now a member of the Athens City Management Committee, and of course he is shaking. He's here to show his superiority now.

"Now you can go back and collect your personal belongings, you must not destroy the production equipment and drawings of the enterprise, these things must be handed over to the workers' committee in their entirety and in their entirety. In addition, gold cannot be taken away, which also belongs to the Greek people......" Karagunis tilted his chin and showed the superiority of the revolutionary. Looking at the pale faces of these capitalists, Karagunis was extremely proud.

Hmph, he is a man from a revisionist country, and he is still a high-level dog leg of a big capitalist, and of course he is an enemy of New Greece! If it weren't for the fact that these two companies also had a cooperative relationship with the Soviet Union and the talisman of the Chinese passport, his attitude would have been even worse.

"Okay, we'll leave tonight......" Li Xiaoren said with a cold face.

Although the workers of the Godzilla consortium in Athens were only used as a cover, and those who should have been transferred had already been transferred before the Soviets called, it was still very uncomfortable for him to be driven away like this.

Greece is an outlier in Europe, a very backward agricultural country. Greece's industrialization was surprisingly late in Europe, in stark contrast to Europe's vibrant Industrial Revolution. By the end of the 19th century, Europe had industrialized and urbanized, but Greece remained a self-sufficient, pre-industrial tradition. The land is dominated by agriculture and the sea is dominated by fishing. Although several railway and road lines were built at the end of the 19th century, they were not necessarily much more advanced than India, and the number and scale of factories were even lower than those of the Qing Dynasty.

In the history of the original time and space, it was not until the 60s when the Papadopoulos military dictatorship came to power that industrialization really began, and it was not until the 70s of the 20th century that Greece realized the transformation from an agricultural country to an industrial country.

However, there are some differences in this plane, because of the layout of Wendehei, the industrialization process of Greece is 30 years earlier than the original plane. During the economic crisis in the thirties, some capital groups in Europe and the United States, in order to avoid this financial turmoil, invested part of their funds in Greece and set up factories in Greece. At the same time, a large number of cheap machinery and production lines were purchased from Europe and the United States. Greece also took advantage of this trend and began to industrialize.

Therefore, Greece at this time was already considered an industrial country. It's just that most of their factories are in the hands of European capital, the most of which are the British Godzilla consortium and the French pioneer consortium, and nearly 6 percent of the heavy industry and 7 percent of the light industry in Greece are owned by these two companies. Consortium leaders like Li Xiaoren and Meng Yan have a high status in Greece.

But it is precisely because Greece's industrialization has developed faster that the power of the Greek Communist Party in this plane is much stronger than that of the original time and space. As for why scientific socialism has not developed? This is because of Turkey next door, and what historical grievances there are between Greece and Turkey, I will not say much here, and it is not enough to say that the feud between these two families is as deep as the sea. Even the Sino-Japanese relations in the original time and space can be called friendly neighbors compared to the relations between Greece and Turkey.

The Greek side, in particular, has the attitude of "whatever Turkey supports, we must oppose!" Since Turkey has already chosen scientific socialism, the Greeks will definitely not choose this. This is a matter of principle of the Greeks, "I eat Xiang when the local chicken eats". Therefore, the scientific socialism of Wen Deji cannot develop here.

Well, in other words, Wendesi's infiltration of Greece was a failure. He underestimated the national feelings of the Greek people, and these guys are very wary of China, because Turkey is China's little brother, so they naturally hate the house and Ukraine. But a Greece is certainly not worth giving up Turkey. The value of the local chicken is much higher than that of Greece, and it is not difficult to choose one or the other.

However, Mr. Wen also has considerations for Greece, since Turkey is very wary of China, making it difficult for Chinese companies to enter, but they are not so hostile to Western countries such as Britain and France, so the British Godzilla consortium and the French Pioneer consortium came.

As for why Wen Desi deliberately supported Greece, the reason is also very simple, that is, "checks and balances". You know, Greece on this plane is much weaker than the original plane, because of the different outcomes of the Balkan Wars, Macedonia is completely useless. The territory is a full 50,000 square kilometers less, almost forty percent less, and its strength is far less than that of the original time and space.

For China, checks and balances are a good means of balancing in the Balkans, a region that is difficult for itself to intervene in. The purpose of supporting Greece is to balance the power of the countries in the region, otherwise the Balkan countries will be prone to chaos if the differences in strength are too great.

It's just that the plan hasn't changed quickly, and according to Mr. Wen's plan, it was originally planned to let Greece continue to remain neutral, so that the forces in this area would be more balanced. But I didn't expect that because of the industrialization of Greece, the Greek Communist Party also took the opportunity to rise. It turned out to be cheaper for the red woolly bear.

Yes, Mr. Wen is planted in Greece, but it is nothing for the current overall situation. It's like playing chess, when the overall situation is dominant, being eaten a few pieces, although it is depressing, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation. Moreover, Greece's entry into the Red Bear camp is not entirely a bad thing.

Although he lost the opportunity to control Greece, he could make the red hairs sink deeper in World War II. With Greece as an forward base, it is more convenient for them to deploy troops.

[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, it must be better!]
