Chapter 1081： Fulfill steel treaty obligations

In a room in the capital of Berlin, Mussolini stood up, sat down, stood up again, sat down again.

He walked around the room a few times, and finally was impatient, and once again asked the German on the side: "When will the head of Cyric come back?"

As the leader of the Italian party, Mussolini must receive the highest level of reception to come to Germany, but now he is very dissatisfied. His plane is at the airport, and only people from the Italian embassy will be greeted by the Germans. Now, even if he came suddenly this time without notice, at least the German Foreign Minister should come here?

And now, he has been in Germany and has been waiting for seven hours, and the sky is getting dark outside, and Führer Cyrik still disappears.

"Führer Cyric is still inspecting outside. I don't know if he can come back tonight." The German on the side said.

Cyric's inspection route is of course top secret. For Cyric's safety, it is impossible to tell Mussolini.

"Then where is he inspecting? Send me, I want to see the head of Cyric immediately!" Mussolini finally couldn't wait. Cyric didn't come back, so he could go and find him by himself.

Just then, a voice came from outside: "Sorry, Mussolini leader, I just rushed back."

Not Cyrek, it was German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop who spoke!

Mussolini's face was ugly. He looked at Ribbentrop and said: "Where is the head of Cyric? I want to see him!"

"The Führer is inspecting outside, and the trip may take two or three days." Ribbentrop said: "What is the party leader, please tell me. I will tell Führer Cyric just as it is."

"Then I will find him, where is he?" Mussolini repeated what he said just now. At least Ribbentrop should know where Cyric is going?

"The head of state's itinerary is uncertain. He is inspecting some of the factories below. I am not sure where they are." Ribbentrop said.

Mussolini's heart was angry. Cyric would rather slowly inspect the factories below than to come back to greet him. In Cyric's eyes, his status is so low?

However, thinking of Germany nowadays, it is no longer that weak Germany. As a revolutionary mentor, he can only accept his fate if he is not respected by the younger brother.

"That's it. Our army is not fighting against Greece. We hope that the empire can send an army to defeat Greece with us. We have signed the Axis agreement and the steel treaty. The empire should At this moment, help us selflessly."

When the Axis powers were first proposed, Mussolini was aloof and signed with his own students, and when the Iron Treaty, he was already aggressive Cyric.

In any case, the two sides, as allies, should advance and retreat together.

In particular, the steel treaty illustrates the obligations of the Germans.

There are three main steel treaties:

1. When the security or major interests of one of the contracting states are threatened from outside, the other party will provide political and diplomatic support;

2. If one party is involved in a war, the other party will provide military support by land, sea and air;

3. Establish a standing committee to strengthen mutual coordination.

Now that Italy has been involved in the war with Greece, Germany needs to support Italy!

Hearing Mussolini’s words, Ribbentrop spoke: "This war between Italy and Greece is outside of our steel treaty, because before that, the head of Cyric had urged Italy, Ciri The head of Führer Krishna has already made a judgment that if Italy attacks Greece, it will definitely fail and hope that Italy will not invade Greece. Now, the facts have proved the correctness of the Führer Cyrik.

"What?" Mussolini was finally annoyed when he heard Ribbentrop's words.

Mussolini certainly remembered that when he decided to do it, he received an urgent telegram from Cyric asking Italy not to do it. But if Italy listened to Germany, then who is the big brother? And how can Italy be so weak?

Mussolini at that time was definitely not obedient, but now, the development of the facts is completely beyond Mussolini's expectations. Bolasca was beaten up by the Greeks and retreated from Greece, while the Greeks had begun to conscript troops on a large scale, and there were signs of continuing to fight.

At this time, Italy must find foreign aid, and Germany needs to provide assistance to Italy.

Who knows, the Germans actually said that?

"Then what is the significance of our steel treaty?" Mussolini angrily: "Is Germany forcing us to withdraw from the steel treaty?"

Hearing these words, suddenly, Ribbentrop’s eyes shot cold eyes, and even made Mussolini shiver. No, it must be an illusion, um, it’s too cold here.

"We in Germany can fulfill the treaty, which is to issue a warning to the Greek government The two sides are allowed to cross the border before the war broke out, and maintain peace. If the Greeks cross the border, then we in Germany will Considered an attack on Germany."

This is Germany’s commitment, the steel treaty is still in effect, and Germany protects Italy from the Greeks.

Germany will not send troops to maimed Greece for the sake of Italy. That would seriously affect Germany's Barbarossa plan.

However, Mussolini will not accept such a promise.

"It seems that I came here by mistake this time. We can conquer the Greeks and restore the glory of ancient Rome without relying on Germany, but Italy ourselves!" Mussolini stood up and walked out angrily.

Looking at the back of Mussolini's departure, Ribbentrop shook his head helplessly. People are worthy of self-knowledge, but now Mussolini is on the wrong path, going further and further!

Mussolini, dare to fight with Germany?

The entire Mediterranean Sea is the inner sea of ​​Germany. The trouble is breaking, and Germany does not need to send troops to conquer Italy, as long as it is replaced by Mussolini.

Well, anyway, Mussolini was sent away, and it was time to report to the head of Cyric.

Holding the phone and listening to Ribbentrop's narration on the other end of the phone, Cyric was very calm.

"It seems that Mussolini still doesn't give up." Cyric said: "Then we will not intervene. When the Italian mainland is captured by the Greeks, Mussolini will beg us no matter what."

In this regard, Cyrek is very sure. In history, the Greeks drove straight in and almost hit the French border. For this reason, the border troops of Vichy France set up a sign on the border. The Greeks, don’t Fight again, this is France! ()
