Chapter 383

"Please rest assured that I will accompany you down." Goodrian replied with a smile.

"My head of state, I will go down with you." Rommel followed.

"Rommel, there are some special forces you want to build. I need you to be independent in a big environment. There are no outsiders here who can't reveal secrets. Let me be frank. I don't have much hope for Italy's North Africa strategy. I will transfer you to Africa to clean up the mess Mussolini left behind. Do you have confidence? "

"My head of state, in the case of fighting far away from home, replenishment will be the top priority." Rommel is no longer a fledgling young man. He has been on the battlefield for a long time, but after a little thought, he put forward his doubts: "in that environment, our tanks, armored vehicles and fighters are big gas consumers. Can the Navy maintain such a huge supply?"

"You don't have to think about the Navy. I just tell you, I will give you everything you want, and what you have to do is very simple, go to Suez and dominate North Africa! " Akado complacently said: "I want you to be the king of Africa. When the world mentions you, it will remind you of your terrible l army, the terrible African Army."

"When you take down Egypt, I will give you the Marshal's scepter and make you one of the greatest soldiers in the Empire." Finally, with that, akado stopped talking and just stared at Rommel.

"My head of state, I will hold Africa in your hand." Rommel thought about it for about ten seconds, then solemnly stood at attention and saluted: "akado? Long live Rudolph

Hearing Rommel's reply, akado nodded and turned his eyes to goodrian: "I'm not going to let you rest. I'm going to take your g army to the east line. If the Russians dare to come, we'll break their bones!"

"What about England?" Asked goodrian, frowning.

"Britain? Let's leave it to lundstadt. I owe the Admiral a scepter, so I have to give him the goal of taking Britain and guarding the Atlantic Acardo waved his hand and motioned to go to the waiting car: "what's left in Western Europe is all sea battles and intrigues. It's not suitable for you generals on the battlefield. I'll give it to Augustus and Merkel... What? Can't believe it? "

"My Fuehrer..." the two men were immediately terrified.

"I'm kidding. You two are with me in Paris today. " Akado went to the side of the car, and when Anna opened the car door, she continued, "I don't have much appetite to eat with those French diplomats. It's more appetizing to eat with you two."

With that, he got into the car, started with the long motorcade and drove slowly towards the downtown area of Paris. The surrender ceremony was held in the former residence of Emperor Napoleon in Paris, where the huge German flag was now hoisted.

It was originally suggested that the French should be allowed to complete the surrender ceremony in the carriage where the Treaty of Versailles was signed. In this way, it was revenge for the humiliation imposed on the German by the French in 1918. However, akkado ignored Hitler's revenge at that time. He calculated more shrewdly and decided to give up beating the French in the face.

After all, acardo also needs to requisition the French factories which are not efficient but large in scale; Moreover, he also tried his best to make the French continue to contribute in his war of aggression, at least to keep the French colonies in North Africa neutral in the future war; In the end, there was a trace of the doctrine of the mean in his soul. He didn't want to do anything absolutely, and he didn't want to make the French too embarrassed.

After all, he wanted more things this time than Hitler, so he was very generous in such a small matter of face.

Among the flashing lights of countless reporters, the head of state in his black SS uniform climbed the steps and entered the former residence of Emperor Napoleon. One hand was holding the belt, the other hand was swinging with the pace, holding a pair of leather gloves, with an invisible smile on his face.

He wore a German flag armband with golden wheat embroidery on the edge of his arm and a "Fuehrer" on his chest! Akado? Rudolph! Long live Standing on the edge of the corridor, the protocol soldiers with white gloves and Mauser 98K rifles stand at attention and salute. The raised right hand forms an arch on both sides of acardo. Acardo does not squint and moves forward step by step, but every step makes the French diplomats waiting at the end of the corridor tremble.

After several hours of hard negotiations, the French lost almost half of their territory and ceded most of the economically prosperous areas, including the capital Paris. In the name of compensating Italy for its losses, they also offered sacrifices to Monaco, Marseilles and Toulon. At the same time, France disbanded its army and air force, and Germany acted as a protectorate to exercise its defense power.

France has to pay Germany 400 million francs a day for military protection and public security maintenance. Germany has the right to requisition most of the French factories and assign supervision departments to French enterprises for wartime supervision, so as to improve production efficiency. At the same time, all French ports must be open to German warships for 200 years.

On the basis of this treaty, France was allowed to keep all its navies and most of its overseas colonies by the generous German government. But France must promise to send out its fleet to help Germany guard the Mediterranean routes and ensure that these routes are not harassed by the British Mediterranean fleet.

At the same time, France announced its accession to the steel agreement and became a member of the axis power. He announced that he would withdraw from the war against Germany and remained "neutral" to the British government under the understanding of Germany, provided that the French navy would not be attacked by British warships when it completed its Mediterranean mission. Of course, there are other provisions, which seem a little funny. For example, Germany allows France to provide materials and industrial capacity to help Germany win the war. After that, Germany will compensate France for the war just like Italy. This kind of clause has almost no attraction to France, because in terms of the current relationship between the two countries, it's the utmost of the two countries' benevolence not to fall into the trap. However, it is a great misfortune to save the French navy. At least Darlan, the commander-in-chief of the French navy, is very satisfied with the result, so that France's maritime interests can be preserved for at least half of the time. And the control of the overseas colonies will not be weakened much, which can at least keep the hope of France's rise“ My head of state. " At the time of signing, Merkel found an opportunity to get close to acardo: "if we insist, we can take at least three battleships from the French... Is it true that we don't consider Marshal Ryder's proposal?"“ Merkel, believe me... "Akado stared at the signed document and replied:" these fleets, even if they are not mine, will never become British. In this case, it is not so important who will control these warships. " After answering Merkel's words, akado took the pen with a smile and signed his name at the bottom of the document, a line of colorful characters. Then a diplomat stamped a steel seal on the document, followed by the warm applause of a group of German officials and politicians, and the loud cheers of nearly 100 etiquette soldiers outside. With a smile, the head of state extended his hand and expressed his blessing to the French diplomats who were responsible for signing the peace treaty: "Congratulations, the German French war is over."
