Chapter 186 Franco's Cleverness (Thank You for Your Great Support)
Robert is just a war correspondent, and he still sympathizes with the Republican Army.
Now, Robert has access to all the weapons and equipment of the Condor Legion, his own Black Panther 2 tanks, his own BF109 fighters, even a photo may leak.
"Of course it's worth it," Cyric said. "What would it be like to have a world-famous war correspondent come and report on our battles? Reinhardt, you should know that sometimes, public opinion more important!"
The direction of public opinion is of course important. It’s wonderful to think about it. A war correspondent who was originally reporting for the Republican Army began to report to the German Condor Legion. How meaningful is this, a war correspondent’s point of view will affect a lot. people!
In war, no one is right or wrong, and whoever wins is righteous, all these can be covered up for future wars in Germany!
Moreover, the secrets exposed are no longer secrets. On the contrary, it is better to let other countries know some of their own data.
For example, the black panther tank is only 50 mm thick at its thickest. If you know these data, then those advanced anti-tank weapons of the Soviet Union do not need to be studied, they are too powerful!
"Okay, I see." Reinhardt was quite astute, and quickly understood what Cyric was referring to.
"Well, you go back, the next step, the focus of your work is to get in touch with General Mora." Cyric said: "And secretly protect his safety."
Reinhardt's eyes narrowed: "Franco, don't let anyone go?"
"Not now, if we win Madrid this time, it's hard to say." Cyric said: "Franco is too unreliable, we can't pin all our hopes on him."
"Okay, I see." Reinhardt said, "Our focus has always been on Jose?"
"Reinhardt, we can't just do one-handed preparations, we have to prepare more, so as to be safe," Cyric said.
Reinhardt nodded, he was quite confident in his intelligence ability, but, I have to say, General Cyric was even better.
Prepare in many ways!
Reinhard has always existed underground, but occasionally reports to Cyric in secret. Overall, Cyric is quite satisfied with Reinhard.
After going back this time, it's time to kick Himmler away and let Reinhardt take over!
Cyric's eyes were shining brightly, for the future of Germany, what should go, must go! Damn, must die!
A few days later, the Condor Legion was officially launched, left its current station, and marched towards Oropesa.
Although they fought fiercely in Badajoz at the beginning, the Republican Army had limited strength and could only defend key areas. After the Battle of Badajoz, the entire western Spain was almost empty, and Franco's army pursued the victory. Easily won a lot of cities, their peak, pointing to Madrid!
Sitting in an off-road vehicle, beside Cyric was his lover, and at the same time, Cyric held the information he just received in his hand.
Franco has just signed a decree that stipulates that foreign investors can buy shares in Spain's mining industry, but foreign ownership in mining companies must not exceed 30%.
This guy is really not that easy to communicate with. Last time, when he asked to take control of the mining industry in Spain, Franco nodded and agreed, and wanted to go back to discuss.
As a result, we discussed such a result!
Foreign capital can control, but not more than 30%! This is far from the 100% holding that Cyric requires!
Franco obviously does not want Germany to control all the mines in Spain!
"What's wrong? Cyric?" Hannah asked Cyric, seeing the gloomy expression on Cyric's face.
Cyric handed the decree to Hannah, who glanced at it and understood what was going on.
"This is easy to solve." Hannah said: "This regulation requires that any foreign-funded enterprise cannot exceed 30% of the shares, so you can find more foreign-funded enterprises. Set up several leather bag companies and buy each other separately. If you have four companies, you can hold 100% of the shares."
For Hannah, who grew up in a big capitalist family, this is obviously not a problem! Needless to say? Just find a few more!
Cyric's eyes lit up: "Hannah, your idea is really good!"
This problem is solved in this way, but Franco must not be cheap, let him know that this trick is to pay a price!
Now, on the basis that the Condor Legion has worked hard to help them, they dare to engage in such small tricks, so when the battle is over, they must not drive the Condor Legion away immediately?
Don't think I'm a soft persimmon!
Cyric closed his eyes and rested, these days, it's time for the Condor Legion to rest!
The transition of the entire Condor Legion took about a week. When Cyric's legion arrived at the new station, they discovered that the conditions here were much better than last time.
At least, there is no need to live in field tents. The residents of a nearby village were all driven away and used by the entire Condor Legion. Just outside the village, their fields were flattened and became a new airstrip.
All this was arranged by Franco.
Franco wanted to ask the Condor Legion to fight this battle well. He also knew that he made Cyric very unhappy about mining, so he arranged this place to let Cyric continue to cooperate with him.
Think beautifully.
"I'm used to sleeping in tents, but I really don't know if I can fall asleep here." Cyric looked at his residence. The headquarters was a small two-story building with hot water and heating. In this cold winter, The conditions here are quite satisfactory.
"General Cyric, General Franco has sent someone to invite you to a combat meeting to discuss the battle against Madrid," Lieutenant Colonel Richthofen, the staff officer, said to Cyric.
Now, there is only one last battle left, and it seems that Madrid will be won soon!
Franco called the leaders of the various armies together to discuss how to attack.
Cyric shook his head: "Transfer the base all the way, just came here, tired, don't go, Richthofen, you can go to the meeting instead of me, during the meeting, no matter what Franco asks, you Don't agree, come back and ask me for instructions."
Seeing General Cyric's attitude, Richthofen immediately understood: "Don't worry, General Cyric, I will definitely keep your instructions in mind."
Richthofen has the ability to command the army, and he has the ability to draw relations from left to right. These days, under Richthofen's handling, the Condor Legion and the Spanish side are getting along very well.
Now this kind of thing, let Richthofen come forward, it will not cause embarrassment, but also show Cyric's attitude.
