Chapter 1098 Great Country Style (Plus 1)
"I'm sorry, Berlin believes that everything that happened in Rome belongs to Italy's internal affairs. We are also shocked by the death of Mussolini's party leader. We cherish the memory of this predecessor, but we in Germany will not interfere in Italy's political situation. It's also a respect for Italy."
After entering the German embassy, Ciano found the German ambassador. Over the years, Germany and Italy have become allies, and the German ambassador has a very good relationship with them here.
Ciano originally planned to ask Germany for help to stabilize the situation in Rome. At the same time, he had Germany's advice to see who dared to refuse in Italy. Even the king had to listen to Germany's appointment.
Who would have thought that the German side actually meant this!
"However, if we continue to be in chaos in Rome, it will have an impact on the entire European situation. In particular, the Greeks will take the opportunity to attack us and put Italy at risk." Ciano still did not give up and continued to say to the German ambassador.
"Yes, we also saw the threat from Greece, so we decided to teach the Greeks a lesson." The German ambassador said: "Italy don't have to worry about Greece."
Don't worry about Greece, Germany helped deal with external problems and let Rome continue to mess up? This is simply too... Ciano gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I see, please tell President Cyric, our Italian political party will not live up to the expectations of President Cyric."
Ciano, who is good at speculation, wouldn't he understand the meaning of the German side, the one who wins in the end, it is enough to make good friends with Germany, he must rely on his own ability!
Only the guards are on hand, and those who support Badoglio must also be defeated!
In Rome, chaos remains.
In Berlin, German Foreign Minister Ribbentrop met with the Greek ambassador in Germany.
"We want to maintain peace in the Balkans," Ribbentrop said. "We are concerned about the current situation in the Balkans, so we ask the Greek army to withdraw from Albania and restore the situation before the war."
The Greek ambassador's face was ugly. At this time, the Germans had to rely on their strength to oppress people.
"When Italy attacked us, why didn't we see Germany come out to mediate? Now we have clearly won the battle and are about to occupy the whole of Albania and drive the Italian army into the water. At this time, Germany has stood up?" Greek ambassador Almost reluctantly mustering his courage, he said to Ribbentrop: "We protest!"
Now, it is different from history.
Historically, the United Kingdom firmly controlled the Middle East. At the same time, the United Kingdom was also giving blood to Greece to encourage it. Without the support of the British, how could Greece have almost defeated Italy?
And Hitler also used the German army, and it took a month or two to win Greece, carve up Greece, and become the control area of the Axis powers.
Now, Germany does not intend to use force against Greece, and it is best to be defeated without fighting.
"According to our steel treaty with Italy, we should have sent troops with Italy to attack Greece. If we also sent troops, Mr. Ambassador, do you think we can attack Athens?"
Ribbentrop almost said it with a smile, but there was a cruel truth in his smile.
Until now, Germany has not lost! Not to mention Europe, Germany attacked cities in North Africa, and soon hit the Middle East. If Germany came to attack Greece, Greece could not bear it at all.
Greece has no military industry, and all of Greece's weapons are imported. In fact, Greece has almost been knocked out by now.
"If Greece does not accept it, then we will control all routes in Greece, and it is impossible for any Greek ship to transport goods to enter the Mediterranean Sea." Ribbentrop said: "We will also control the airspace of Greece, any Greek ship It is impossible for the plane to leave. By the way, I forgot to tell you that our fighter jets have already taken off from the aircraft carrier and are on their way to Greece. They will protect the airspace of Greece. "
The Greek ambassador wanted to stand up, scolded the other party for his shamelessness, and used force to oppress people, but in the end he didn't.
The Germans seized Greece's soft underbelly.
In this era, it is impossible for any country to develop its own development behind closed doors. Trade has long been global. Greece is next to the Mediterranean Sea and can only be shipped to other countries by sea. If Germany closes the sea door of Greece, Greece’s own The economy collapsed.
Germany has this capability.
"Britain was once our enemy, and in desperation, we used a special bomb to bomb Exeter." Ribbentrop continued to press: "If Greece makes us impatient, maybe , We will also use this kind of bomb on Greek cities, such as Athens, it is a pity, in fact, we cherish the ancient city of Athens, and do not want to see the entire Athens turned into ruins!"
Ribbentrop has begun to be aggressive, agree or not?
If you agree, then withdraw your troops immediately and return to the original site. Everything is considered to have never happened. If you do not agree, then Greece will be destroyed. come over!
This is the style of a strong Germany, without the use of force, just intimidation can make the other party unbearable!
In later generations, the United States played with democracy in one hand, force in the other, and two big sticks. However, the nuclear bomb never dared to use it. Now, Cyric has nothing to be afraid of, and dares to take it out at any time. It's too easy to flatten Athens or something.
The Greek ambassador's body was shaking slowly. As a proud Greek, he wanted to refuse, but he knew that refusal meant destruction.
"Please wait for a while, I need to report to Athens." The Greek ambassador said.
"As soon as possible, our plane will soon be able to fly over Athens." Ribbentrop's words were relaxed.
It didn't take long, less than half an hour, the Greek ambassador met Ribbentrop again.
"We decided to agree with your opinion, although it is a bitter fruit for us. Please also keep your promise. We in Greece are peace-loving, and at the same time, if our homeland is invaded, we will never fear war. ," the Greek ambassador continued.
"Of course, we will keep our promises, no one dares to invade Greece." Ribbentrop continued: "Now, we can talk about other issues, now that the euro has become the currency of Europe, Greece should also Consider promoting the euro across the country.”
