One Hundred and Eighteen Sudeten Battle

"Long live the Führer!" The two generals of the Wehrmacht raised their arms and saluted Akado who entered the conference room. Here is a meeting of Germany's military plan for Czechoslovakia, and the atmosphere in the entire conference room is a little tense.

"Long live the Great Deutschland!" Akado waved his hand in return, then walked straight to the map and looked at the small wooden blocks that were constantly being pushed by the secretaries with long poles.

He watched for about two minutes, then raised his head to look at Schleicher, his Defense Minister, and General Brauchitch, the new Army Commander beside Schleicher: "Tell me, how's everything going? ?"

"My head of state, the army has mobilized 7 divisions, concentrated in Cheb, Karlovy Vary, Most, Ust, and Dechin." General Brauchitch pointed to Germany and Czechoslovakia on the map. border area.

Then he pointed to Austria, Germany's new territory "Oriental Province" with his long whip: "In addition, we have deployed two infantry divisions in Austria, as well as the 26th Cavalry Division commanded by Major General Rommel."

"Once Czechoslovakia counterattacks our army, Major General Rommel's 26th Cavalry Division will go straight into the city of Budejovice, and attack the city of Strakonice, threatening the rear of the Makino line on the Czechoslovakian border and forcing its The border guards are retreating back." As Brauchitch narrated, a secretary moved the small wooden block on the map with a putter, demonstrating to Arcado the change in the positions of the troops on both sides.

"Once we crossed the border, our armored forces were able to take advantage of their speed and wipe out the retreating Czechoslovak troops on the road," Schleicher explained: "This battle plan allowed us to avoid the Czechoslovak border. In a situation of positional warfare."

"Unfortunately, it has seriously delayed the troops' entry into Czechoslovakia!" Arkado rested his chin with his hand, and was obviously not satisfied with the plan: "We tried our best to plan the Sudeten region, for what? Where is it? There are still hundreds of thousands of workers in the factory! Once the war breaks out, do you think that as time goes by, these equipment and workers will stay in place and wait for us to pass?”

He pointed to the map as he spoke: "Once the frontal battle breaks out for more than twenty-four hours, the advance speed of the armored forces will be known to the whole world, and the only secret weapon we have at our disposal will be exposed. Is this the price? too big?"

"There is no way to avoid this, my Führer." Brauchitch said helplessly: "We only have such an offensive plan that we can adopt, to attack the Maginot line frontally, we will lose one within two days of the war. Division troops, this is not a loss that the Wehrmacht can afford."

Catherine, who was standing on the side, also stepped forward and reported to Accadorhui: "My head of state, the Air Force is only equipped with 37 of the latest ME-109 fighter jets, and these aircraft cannot ensure air supremacy over the entire theater. Our Air Force's plan It is to temporarily abandon the frontal battlefield to ensure the safety of the air above General Rommel's attacking group."

"The General Staff Headquarters deduces that within three to five days after the battle, the French troops will attack our western defense line, where the Siegfried line cannot withstand the French attack." General Bock also persuaded: "My head of state, The fact that we won Austria is already a very good situation, there is no need to take risks for Czechoslovakia."

Arkado knew that this was not an adventure, it was simply a situation where riding a tiger was difficult. If he stopped his actions in Czechoslovakia, how would he explain to the world his slogan of liberation of all Germans? Those Germans who had acted would be ruthlessly repressed by their country, and Arcador would forever lose their support and understanding.

What is even more frightening is that the French and the British will see that Germany is bluffing, which directly affects the implementation of Germany's entire strategic deployment.

"We must put on such a posture!" Arkado said seriously: "Show the world that we are about to attack Czechoslovakia! Leave the rest to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs! Time will be on our side! Trust me , the British and French will not choose to defend Czechoslovakia to the death, they prefer to give it to us, let us stop the Soviets' westward plan."

By the time Arcador had finally persuaded his generals to proceed with the preparations for military action against Czechoslovakia, and had assured them that Germany would not be drawn into the quagmire of war anytime soon, it was already ten minutes at noon.

When he walked out of the combat conference room and took the coat that Anna handed him, he found that the shirt he was wearing had been soaked with sweat. He smiled awkwardly, and then walked out of the gate of the Wehrmacht headquarters, which he was very familiar with. Got in the car and headed straight to the German parliament. In the afternoon, he still had an important speech to give.

Sitting in the back of the car, with his arms around Anna's slender waist, Akado let out a heavy sigh of relief. Now Germany is still not strong enough to make everyone think they will win.

The entire convoy stopped in front of a restaurant, and Anna got out of the car to buy a hamburger, a Coke, and French fries for Arcardo. This fast food restaurant belongs to the catering department of the Bai Lanhua Group. This kind of fast food has been welcomed by people as soon as it came out, because it is fast and cheap, and it has become the favorite of workers and employees.

However, it is estimated that no one would have thought that the actual controller of a country would be so busy that he had to buy such cheap food to satisfy his hunger on the way to the market. Arcado was munching on a burger with patties and green leaves in the rocking car, while asking Anna to help record the speech to discuss with Merkel after the speech.

"If the king of England is as busy as I am, Austria should still be a country by now." After swallowing the last hamburger and gargling with Coke, Akado smiled and said to Anna who was beside him: "Wait until everything here is over. Now, I'm going to give myself a vacation and visit the famous mountains and rivers in Germany."

Anna smiled, then nodded, and finally leaned on Akado's shoulder, and murmured, "I'm with you!..."

In the speech at the Congress in the afternoon, Arcardo took out the famous speech that was originally Hitler! This is an inspirational rhetoric that the ancient long song of the other world appreciates, but now Arcador is ready to plagiarize it to inspire his listeners: "The Germanic peoples have come to the most dangerous time, England, France Waiting for the country to look down on us, and our government to be cowardly and incompetent."

"They have forgotten the pride of the Germanic nation, they have given up the dignity of the Germanic nation. They want to retreat from the road of saving their fellow Germans, they want to give up the Czech-Germanic people who are looking forward to our arrival! They are a disgrace to the Germanic nation!"

Akado waved his arms high and clenched his fists in the air: "Are we going to watch these ill-intentioned nations and rulers humiliate the great Germanic people? Shall we back down too? Look at our fellow citizens Are our homes lost? Watching our sons create capital for them, watching our daughters and wives become their playthings?"

"Friends, we are descendants of the great Germanic nation, we have noble blood, do we want those lower nations to rule over our friends, relatives and even ourselves?"

He waved his hand as if to obliterate everything: "No! We are descendants of noble Germanic peoples. We don't want our lower peoples to rule us, we want to rule those lower peoples and let them submit to our feet!"

"We're going forward, we're going to restore the glory of the Germanic nation!"

Speaking of which, the entire Congress, under the leadership of Speaker Loic Carter, gave a warm applause.

When the applause died down, Accardo gave the German salute again and ended his speech in the loudest voice he could scream: "Go on, friends! Let the lower nations tremble at our feet! Go on! !"

The speech did exactly what Arcado had hoped for, and members of Congress cheered at his instigation. The resolution "German Armed Intervention in the Sudetenland of the Sudetenland", which was easily passed by a collective vote, legalized Germany's use of military force, and the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs became more assertive on the issue of the Sudetenland's ownership.

In the evening, Accardo met with German Foreign Minister Merkel, who was summoned by him. The two analyzed and summarized the current diplomatic situation. Accado gave Merkel a death order, asking him to British and French attitudes towards the Sudetenland must be dealt with within five days.

Then Accardo rushed to the airport, where he took a plane to Vienna to attend the German Music Film Festival held in Vienna. After all, the film company in his hands has produced more than a dozen excellent movies that shocked the world. As a well-known screenwriter in the industry , as the German head of state who has made extraordinary achievements in politics, art and business, he was invited by the organizers to attend the opening ceremony of the festival.

Unlike Germany, which was thriving, Czechoslovakia is now extremely depressed due to riots and riots. The production of this top ten industrial country in the world has come to a standstill, the economy has completely collapsed, and countless civilians have poured into the streets, holding high their flags and hoping that the German head of state can come to save the country.

On January 2, 1934, just after the New Year, at the final urging of Germany, the British government was the first to take a stand, recognizing Germany's ownership of the Sudetenland and Germany's actual control over Czechoslovakia. The Czechoslovak diplomatic envoy who rushed to the UK did not even see the British king at all.

The next day, the German Armed Forces crossed the Czechoslovakian border. Ten minutes later, the Czechoslovakian border troops gave up their resistance, and within a few hours the Maginot Line fell. The German armored troops drove straight in and soon entered Prague, the largest city in Czechoslovakia.

On January 4, 1934, the United States and Japan successively recognized the annexation of Czechoslovakia to Germany, and on January 5, France announced that it would not comment on the matter.

The sporadic resistance in Czechoslovakia continued, but the Germans had achieved their desired strategic goal: they had taken control of the entire Czechoslovakian industrial system and had hundreds of thousands of skilled workers in their hands.
