One Thousand and Twenty-Nine, the Monstrous Price of Power
? In an ancient building, candles were lit and filled the entire hall. This is a sacred place, and it is remembered by people because of countless miracles. 8 ·==-=`=---` On this day, under the watchful eyes of countless people, a great ceremony is going on.
"Today! I stand here! Announcing an important event. We have waited so long for this day, so long that we have forgotten the concept of time. Our fathers, our ancestors, are all on this road We have tried hard, but none of them succeeded, but fortunately, we succeeded!" Under countless flashlights, the old man who gave the speech was impassioned, and he seemed to have spent all the remaining energy in his life preparing for this speech, so every sentence Words, every word is so sonorous and powerful.
"God bless all the Jews, today we finally get our own land here! Gentlemen, this will be the hometown of all the Jews in the world, and this will become the only country in the world where the Jews really dominate!" Standing on the stage The old man is Enrique, the old man who has been working hard for the establishment of the Jewish nation, finally stood on the podium today, and said the heroic words that he had always expected himself to say in front of countless reporters and audiences.
No matter how tortuous the process was, he finally fulfilled his wish. From then on, the Jews are no longer rootless duckweeds, and the Jews will no longer be bullied by others! God knows how much effort he has put in for this day, and thank God, all his dedication has paid off at this moment.
"From this moment on, the Jewish nation will become a great nation standing in the world like the Greater German nation! May the friendship between the two nations last forever, may the friendship between the two countries last forever, and may the world finally move toward peace!" Enrique continued his speech, and the applause from the audience never stopped.
The only thing that made these Jews dissatisfied was that the preparations were too hasty, so that at their founding ceremony, order was maintained by teams of Wehrmacht soldiers in German uniforms. Right `-=-This is also a helpless choice. After all, the Jews do not have their own armed forces. Even if there are some temporary guards, it is impossible to transport all of them to distant Jerusalem in a short time.
So they had to use the German soldiers on the front line to decorate their facade, because the other option, the Italian army, was very different in appearance. As for why the Jewish state was declared so hastily, it is because these Jews who have done business to the core know the simple truth that things will change if they are late.
As the speech said, for too long, the Jews have been able to survive under the wings of others. They want to take their own destiny into their own hands too much, and now they have such an opportunity, so they really don't want to let this opportunity slip away. It is precisely because of this that they are eager, and they would rather be simple, and complete the task of building the country as soon as possible, turning it into a fait accompli.
"The name of the new country was discussed, and the name 'Israel', the name of the Jewish ancestors, was unanimously chosen." Speaking of this,
Enrique had to be interrupted by applause and cheers from the audience again. The compatriots below had waited too long for this moment, so it was no wonder that they would cheer like children.
"Israel!" "Israel!" Everyone cheered one after another. They seemed to have forgotten that Enrique had not completed his declaration. They just cheered this name over and over again, as if this name was everyone here today. soul.
...
At the same time, in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, Ibn Saud was sitting alone in a room with several of his staff. full of concerns about the current situation.
When he was just a regional armed leader fighting in the barren desert, Akado's envoys found him with goodwill and guns and ammunition, and the funding from Germany also allowed him to establish himself in the Middle East faster. advantage, and defeated other opponents in one fell swoop, became the king of this area. > bar --= ·
What followed was greater sincerity brought by the German envoy. With the covert support of Germany, Saudi Arabia and the United Kingdom drew a clear line and became the first independent country in the Middle East to break away from the rule of the British Empire. This kindness is not insignificant, and it also raised Ibn Saud's favor towards Germany to a new level.
With the help of the German friend Akado who has never met, Saudi Arabia's good luck seems to have no end. German engineers and geologists discovered a large amount of oil reserves in Saudi Arabia. As a result of resource allocation, a large amount of money poured into Saudi Arabia, making it the most prosperous place in the entire Middle East.
Just when Ibn Saud was full of ambition and prepared to move across the Middle East after becoming stronger, Britain and the Americans kicked Saudi Arabia's benefactor, Germany, out of the Middle East's interest circle. The greedy capitalists not only divided up Germany's share of oil, but even the French after that.
The distribution of benefits again and again, but Saudi Arabia itself has not received much benefit. Since the Germans left the Middle East, the good days of this country seem to have come to an end. Not only is the development of the Saudi government extremely slow under the hostage of the great powers, but sometimes it is even unable to make its own judgment.
Back then, when the Germans were expelled, Saudi Arabia did not say a word for this ally. This originally only left a little regret for His Majesty the King Ibn Saud, but when the Germans returned to the Middle East again, the regret was It turned into a dumbfounding panic.
Because this time, the Germans obviously did not come back to do business. Their planes made the advanced fighter jets in the United States dare not take off to fight, and their tanks made the indestructible tanks in the United States dare not go to the front line. These Germans were no longer at the mercy of others as they were when they left. A ghost crawling back from hell.
"We have not fulfilled our obligations as an ally, so the Germans are no longer our friends." Ibn Saud sat in his high-end sofa, looking much older: "When they were at a disadvantage , we chose to ignore it, so we don’t have to regret their attitude towards us today.”
"However, they went too far this time! They actually supported those Jews to establish a country within our sphere of influence! This is something we cannot tolerate!" A Saudi minister complained angrily: "It was the United States that drove them away back then. The people and the British have nothing to do with us..."
Is it really okay? Of course it doesn't matter. The oil of the Germans in the Middle East was divided by the United Kingdom and the United States. Without the full cooperation of the Saudi tycoon, Saudi Arabia could save a lot of shady oil quotas for Germany by accepting various loopholes in the middle of oil production capacity. It is a pity that Saudi Arabia did not do this. Instead, it directly destroyed all the efforts of the Germans. So as the minister spoke, his voice fell involuntarily.
Ibn Saud rubbed his painful temple and sighed helplessly. Today's entire Middle East war situation is very unfavorable to the retreating Britain and the United States. For him, the king of Saudi Arabia, it is not a good word. The Germans came back obviously for oil resources. Whether the attitude towards the locals is good or bad depends on their mood.
"The British and the Americans are for oil resources. Now, in order not to leave resources for the Germans, they are also destroying the equipment in the territory... These are our bargaining chips. If they are all destroyed, what will we use to fight the Germans?" Bargaining?" A minister worriedly suggested to Ibn Saud: "We must hold part of the oil resources in our own hands, otherwise the Germans will really drive away the British and Americans, and we will be in danger."
His Majesty the King of Saudi Arabia sighed again, and complained helplessly: "Damn it! Germans, Italians, Americans and British... There are so many countries, how come there is no one who is sincere and us Arabs? , who made friends?"
...
When Mr. Enrique stepped off the podium, the German special envoy was waiting for him in the side hall of the rest. And waiting for Enrique with the German envoy, there are more than a dozen Jewish rich and industrial tycoons who often appear in economic newspapers in Germany. Seeing the almost exhausted old man walk into the room with the help of his assistant, everyone laughed and stood up and applauded.
"Thank you, thank you Yuan for your support. Although we can't join the Axis powers immediately, we can use our status as a neutral country to import a large amount of oil and other resources from the Middle East." Enrique smiled and found a sand to sit down, and then He shifted his gaze to the various documents spread out on the desktop.
"Germany is really a country that advocates efficiency." Enrique looked at Mr. Special Envoy from Germany with a look of contempt. Of course he knew the contents of these documents, which had been agreed between him and Akado long ago, but signing these documents required a lot of courage, at least for him personally, there were not many things to give up.
"Israel is also a country that advocates efficiency, isn't it?" The German special envoy asked with a smile. The guards outside the door are all German Wehrmacht. Of course, he has his own pride and proud capital.
Sure enough, Enrique and these Jewish tycoons stopped talking nonsense and began to sign thick documents. From then on, they will have nothing in Germany, and in exchange for this, they are in the country of Israel—— The power is monstrous.
