Chapter 270 Baker's Objection
The Czech Republic is a powerful industrial country. If nothing else, the famous machine guns on the battlefield of China in later generations were made by Yishui in the Czech Republic. The Czech Republic is now the second largest arms factory in the world.
At the same time, as a victorious country in World War I, the Czech Republic also has a strong army. For example, the Czech Republic now has a combat army of forty divisions!
Moreover, the Czech Republic also has those vast mountainous areas in the Sudetenland, which are obstacles to the passage of the German mechanized army. At the same time, over the years, the Czechs have built a lot of fortifications in the Sudetenland.
If the Czech Republic wants to resist stubbornly, with the current military capabilities of Germany, it can't be eaten at all. Even though Cyric's armored troops are extremely powerful, they hit Barcelona in a few days. However, if they really do it, the mountainous area of Sudeten, Enough to keep them tossing for a few months.
However, in this world, many times, it is not based on strength. If this is the case, the two of them don't have to fight, everyone shows their arms, and whoever has harder muscles will win.
Although Germany's strength is not enough, but Germany is bent on fighting and protecting its own people!
"No, General Cyric, you can't do that." At this moment, a voice came from below.
Cyric turned his head and looked at the person who was speaking to stop him. Sure enough, it was as he expected.
The Army Chief, Ludwig Baker, this guy, was already one of the few anti-war factions in the Prussian officer corps.
There are always some people who are unfounded and think that as long as there is a slight change in Germany, they will be beaten by Britain and France, and everything will be in vain. The representative of them is this guy Baker.
He is simply the kind of pessimist by nature, he even has to look at the windows of the buildings on the roadside when he walks, so that the glass does not fall and hit him. Such a guy is simply a complete coward, but in later generations, he was named Hero's title.
Why? Because of his involvement in the 720 events of the later generations, he organized a large group of people to murder Hitler.
When Hitler was about to attack, he was indeed an anti-war faction, but when Hitler defeated France and occupied the whole of Europe, all the Wehrmacht cheered along with him.
As a result, the situation was unfavorable, and a group of senior officials within the Wehrmacht began to oppose the war, wanting to kill Hitler and end the war. These guys, from beginning to end, are a group of villains!
Therefore, Cyric was not optimistic about guys like Baker in his previous life, but now, this guy is even more annoying.
What's wrong with ploughing and ploughing the land for the survival of Germany with the sword of Germany?
Baker was quite excited. In the past, when advancing into the Rhineland and Austria, Baker was not high enough to play an important role. Now, he has finally become the Army Chief of Staff and can enter the command core. He must say it. .
"Führer, I don't mean to offend you." Baker said seriously, which was very valuable to him: "You should know that the Sudeten problem is different from Austria. The Czech Republic and France have signed a treaty. Once If we go to war with the Czech Republic, then France will declare war on us. Our army cannot beat France now."
They have a treaty!
World War I was a tragic war, and all countries suffered heavy losses. If they were to be elected, the two biggest victims would not be Germany and Austria, but Russia and Hungary.
After World War I, the Allies continued to intervene in the Soviet Union and Hungary. Three hundred years of Russian efforts in the European direction have flown by. Hungary lost 70 percent of its territory.
At the same time, the biggest beneficiaries were not Britain and France, but Poland and Czechoslovakia. Poland was aggressive. With its residual power, it beat all its neighbors. He dared to grab the Soviet Union's territory, and also grabbed some Czech territory.
As a result, after the war, if France wanted to clamp down on Germany, it had to form an alliance with Germany's neighbors. Among them, Luxembourg was irrelevant. The Netherlands, Denmark, and Switzerland must be playing soy sauce. If Austria was defeated, Lithuania would be wiped out by Poland. Yes, Italians are two-faced.
In the end, only Czechoslovakia and Poland were left to choose. It would be the best if everyone combined. Unfortunately, after a battle between Czechoslovakia and Poland, they refused to sign a mutual defense treaty with Poland.
As a result, France and Poland signed the Franco-Polish treaty separately. At the same time, France signed another Franco-Czech-Soviet treaty with Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union.
In the latter treaty, the Soviet Union made soy sauce. After all, the territories were not bordered, and there were birds.
It can be said that the Czech Republic is used by the French to deal with Germany. At this time, if Germany wants to invade the Czech Republic, France will definitely come from the other side!
In the Spanish Civil War, France did not send troops, and the German armored divisions looked aggressive, but how many were there in total? Moreover, the consumption of oil is simply astronomical!
Therefore, although the armored division has shown great power now, as the chief of staff of the army, Baker does not like to continue to form the armored division. He prefers to spread the tanks to other infantry divisions without too much.
"Baker, you are just as cowardly as a mouse." Cyric, of course, was not polite to this later conspirator. There are almost no bombs in the army. These actions have made the entire Wehrmacht admire Hitler incomparably, and only a few are left.
Simply, kill this guy first now!
Cyric's words made Baker blush. For a general who participated in World War II, Cyric's words were definitely an insult.
"I'm thinking of Germany! I don't want us to get back into the quagmire of war, like WWI!" Baker said.
"Then we will sacrifice the Sudetenland, our three million German compatriots? We watch them bullied by the Czechs, and then we do nothing?" Cyric said: "Then our army, is What was it built for?"
"Defend our country, defend each of our Germans!" Cyric paused, and his words became more high-spirited: "We built the Third Reich from the mess of the Weimar Empire, and it is definitely not such a soft egg. !"
"Cyric, you are short-sighted, this will drag us Germany into hell!" Baker was also anxious: "If we continue to attack, Britain and France will definitely do it, they will not watch us become stronger day by day, especially Attack the Czech Republic!"
"I don't think so." Cyric's words were calm: "I do think that Britain and France will continue to appease and allow us to occupy the Sudeten region. You should know that my judgment has never been wrong."
"No, this time, you must be wrong!" Baker said, "If everything develops as you said, then I am willing to resign!"
