Third Reich Episode 317
The reason is simple, Mussolini has not hummed a ditty as usual these two days.Therefore, there have been no reports of defeat from the front line in the past two days.
That's why it is said that Mussolini is really miraculous. A small movement of his can influence the trend of the war.
And Mussolini is naturally in a good mood without the interference of external factors
Due to his good mental state, his condition naturally recovered well.
Mussolini's attending doctor told him a few days ago that he would be discharged from the hospital in a few days.
And today is the day Mussolini was discharged from the hospital.
Today, the Italian leader is in a very happy mood. He is also very happy when he thinks that he will be discharged from the hospital soon and command the Italian army to "sweep" the world.
"Hey, boy. You go ask my attending doctor, can I be discharged now?" Mussolini said to his assistant.
It can be seen that he can't wait to get out of the hospital and show his skills.
Mussolini has always believed that he has great talents in military command.
As for the previous defeats of the Italian army, he blamed it all on his failure to personally command in the hospital, and blamed the frontline generals for messing around.
He believes that as long as he sits in person, he will direct the actions of the Italian army in Africa.Then all the results of the battle will be as simple as coming at your fingertips.
"Leader, I have already asked. It is estimated that the discharge procedures will be completed in the afternoon. Then I will arrange a special car to pick you up at the hospital and go directly to the Prime Minister's residence." The little assistant replied. Things, he still did his due diligence.
"Very good, but the destination has to be changed. I need to go directly to my prime minister's office, not my official residence. I must have a lot of things to deal with after being hospitalized for so long. I can't rest for a moment." Mussolini Emphasized to the assistant.
At this moment, he felt that he was possessed by Jesus, everything was for the country first, he felt how great he was, fantasized that he would be the best leader in Italian history, and fantasized that he would be famous in history.
"Yes, leader, everything is according to your arrangement. But you also have to pay attention to your health. After all, you have just been discharged from the hospital and cannot withstand too long fatigue." The assistant knew that he couldn't stop Mussolini from pretending to be aggressive. , I had no choice but to compromise with Mussolini, and a symbolic persuasion to Mussolini can be regarded as making him pretend to be a little bit.
"Don't worry about this. I know my body well. Besides, even if I am exhausted and admitted to the hospital, it is for Italy and the Italian people. If I am exhausted, there will be tens of thousands in Italy." I stand up and continue to fight for the future of the clan!" Mussolini deliberately raised the volume of the last sentence, as if he was afraid that others would not hear him.
"The leader's fearless spirit is really admirable. If everyone can always put the interests of the country and the clan first like the leader, then why not worry about the prosperity of the new Roman Empire!"
I have to admire the assistant's flattering level. Everyone can see that Mussolini is pretending to be aggressive, but he can still put on a respectful posture. It can be said that the world owes him an Oscar.
Mussolini naturally smiled when he heard this, and said to his assistant: "Young man, I admire you very much. Work hard. You will have a bright future."
The little assistant smiled secretly, thinking that it was not in vain that he flattered Mussolini all day long, and the leader finally said what he wanted to hear the most, after all, he worked next to the leader for the purpose of One day you will be able to get promoted and stand out.
Of course, he won't show his thoughts. On the contrary, he said with a straight face: "I am honored to work for the leader. I don't want to be famous. If one day I am lucky enough to be promoted by the leader, I will never forget it." The leader taught me, wholeheartedly follow the leader's guidance step by step."
Mussolini was very happy when he heard these words, and he thought to himself: "I didn't expect this assistant to be my loyal fan. It seems that this person can be entrusted with great use."
Of course, he also didn't show it on his face. You must know that the more sophisticated a person is, the deeper he will hide.
I saw Mussolini said to the assistant with a serious face: "Leaders also make mistakes. You can't just follow me blindly. You have to learn from each other's strengths so that you can make progress. Leaders also make mistakes. I don't want others to say that I It is a dictatorship, a leader who can clearly recognize his own mistakes and dare to correct them is a good leader."
Mussolini was so praised that he happily chatted with his assistant until the afternoon, until the nurse brought Mussolini's discharge procedures and told them that they could be discharged.
Subsequently, under the arrangement of his assistant, Mussolini took his special car all the way from the hospital to his prime minister's office.
After coming to the office, Mussolini saw the huge stack of various documents that had piled up during his hospitalization, and instantly lost interest in working.
"Why so many?" Mussolini asked the assistant in horror.
"This is still a document that needs to be handled by you personally, the leader. I have already handled the irrelevant ones for you during your hospitalization. And these are some battle reports from the front line, as well as the generals' combat plans and logistics supply routes of the logistics department. , They all have to be handled by the leader himself, and I have no right to decide on my own." The assistant explained to Mussolini seriously.
"That's right, I understand. Then go get busy. I don't like being disturbed when I'm working." Mussolini said helplessly.
In fact, he just wanted to take the opportunity to dismiss his assistant. He didn't want his assistant to see him being lazy.
"Yes, leader." After finishing speaking, the assistant walked out with him.
After that, facing this huge pile of documents, Mussolini really didn't care about it.He turned to the side of the window, watching the sunset and the setting sun, thinking about it.
Suddenly, there was a rapid and brisk knock on the door of Mussolini's office, and the person knocking on the door was none other than his assistant.
After the assistant entered the door, he saw that the thick stack of documents on Mussolini's desk was still piled up like a mountain, which seemed very strange, but he couldn't care less, and hurriedly said to Mussolini:
"Leader, good news, great victory on the East African battlefield! After half a month of fierce fighting, our East African army finally occupied British Somalia and most of South Sudan half a day ago. Lieutenant General Frysk is going to take advantage of the victory and continue to pursue Advance to the north of Sudan, and then occupy North Sudan and ignore Egypt in order to relieve the siege of North Africa."
"Hahaha, show me the battle report." Mussolini was so happy that he almost jumped up from his chair: "As expected, General Garibaldi did not disappoint me, his plan succeeded!"
Text Chapter 489 Churchill's Little Secret
Judging from the current form of warfare, the German army has all-round advantages, and its advanced communication codes are the guarantee for the smooth implementation of its advanced strategies and tactics.
In fact, as early as the early 20s, the German army had already begun to issue advanced "Enigma" cipher machines.
It was the newest and most complex communication cipher at the time.Germany uses this cipher from Reinhardt to key military and intelligence agencies.
If this code is kept firmly secret, then Reinhardt and Germany will not fail easily.
But a turning point occurred in 1939: In August 1939, the British intelligence agency obtained an "Enigma" cipher machine from Poland.
Although Reinhardt designed and framed Turing, the key figure in deciphering the code, the historical "Alan Turing" team ceased to exist.
But in fact, Turing's death only delayed the deciphering time of the British, and did not completely prevent them from deciphering the German Enigma.
After cracking the code, one day in 1940, the British intelligence agency intercepted a bombing operation of the German army, which was code-named the "Moonlight Sonata" project.
The secret order was intercepted by monitoring during the transmission of the radio wave code.This is an order issued by the German Air Force Command in accordance with Reinhardt's order, requiring the Air Force fleet to carry out violent bombing of three important cities including Coventry City in the center of the British inland in the near future!
The bombing plan has two purposes: one is that Coventry City is an important industrial city that Britain supported the war, and it is of great significance; the other is that the British army is always prepared when the German air raids on London, and the German Ministry of Defense began to suspect that "Inigma" was Leaked, they wanted to confirm suspicions with this operation.
And Reinhardt also suspected that the "Enigma" had been leaked, and this time it was a huge trap he set for the British army.
From his point of view, even if the British did not decipher the "Enigma", such a large-scale bombing, when the bomber fleet approached the British mainland, the remaining British radar stations would definitely be able to intercept the news.
You know, Reinhardt had deliberately not let the German army destroy the British radar station south of Coventry, in order to keep them to verify whether the code was deciphered.
If the British had deciphered the German code, according to Reinhardt's understanding of Churchill, he would definitely order a ban on the evacuation of civilians in cities such as Coventry, and no special air defense arrangements would be made.
In this way, Churchill could keep the matter of deciphering the German code as a trump card and take it out when he needs it more in the future.
However, the British did not decipher the code, so after discovering the German bombing cluster at their remaining radar stations, they will definitely notify the transfer and evacuation urgently to prevent excessive losses.
In other words, if the British were smart enough not to carry out air defense preparations, they would have exposed their cards instead, which reflected the fact that they had deciphered the German code.
Therefore, on the evening of August 1940, 8, the German army began to implement the "Moonlight Sonata" plan.
But this time the plan has changed. In addition to Coventry and other three important cities for bombing, Reinhardt also temporarily and secretly added London, the capital of the United Kingdom. He wants to spy on Churchill's cards to the maximum extent.
In this way, the German army bombed London and other cities indiscriminately for 10 consecutive hours, killing 1254 people, injuring more than 6800, destroying more than 50000 private houses, and destroying more than 500 shops; 12 aircraft parts factories were paralyzed.
The British air defense force and air force seemed to be dumb, and did not give any counterattack at all.
