At exactly 10:00 am on July 5, the conference room of the Prime Minister's Office in Berlin.

Seeing Chen Dao's appearance, Braushich and Hard felt a little guilty at the same time.

The news of France's surrender shocked the three realms of the German army, navy and air force.

Because of the "Eight Weeks" incident, the German army officers and soldiers who should have celebrated their victory with compatriots across the country were collectively covered with a shadow in their hearts. It is inevitable to be embarrassed when they encountered officers and soldiers from other services, especially the Air Force. Before the Battle of France, they used the "Eight Weeks" incident to mock the Air Force.

The feng shui took turns, and the victory of the French Battle completely reversed the offensive and defensive momentum between the German Army and the Air Force, and the Army became the target of ridicule.

If Manstein had not participated in the formulation of the Manstein-Rosen plan to attack France and saved some face for the army, the German Army would have completely lost its head in front of the Air Force.

Is "My brother-in-law" the illegitimate son of God? Otherwise, why did God favor him so much? He actually blessed Germany and killed France within eight weeks.

Seeing Chen Dao walking towards them, Braushich and Hard raised their faces, straightened their backs, ready to accept Chen Dao's ridicule.

Unexpectedly, Chen Dao just greeted them politely and sincerely assured them that he would fulfill his duties as a special consultant of the Army Ordnance Bureau and sat in his seat, leaving only Braushich and Hard in a daze.

They didn't know that in Chen Dao's eyes, the Army had become a major buyer of Skoda Arsenal.

When dealing with big buyers, Chen Dao of course had to greet them with a smile, then knocked on the bones and sucked the marrow and squeezed the last mark in their hands.

After the meeting began, it was indeed as Chen Dao and Gorene expected. A fierce quarrel broke out between the army and the navy.

Braushich said that a landing assault was carried out on a wide front from Ramsgate to the Isle of Wight. The total length was about 200 miles;

The first batch of landers was about 100,000, and then another 160,000 were landed, and the Navy was asked to prepare for the attack before August 13.

Redell patiently explained to Hitler and Blauchic: such a large-scale landing requires many ports for the assault fleet to prepare, French ports have been destroyed and unusable, and the assembly of ships in these ports will inevitably expose the invasion plan to the British;

Redell also stressed that amphibious assaults must be performed on a narrow front so that a supply line across the English Channel can be maintained. According to Redell, the only viable landing ground is located about 80 miles wide between Dover and Beaches.

Redell also stated that it was completely impossible to operate at such a large scale or such rapid pace, and that the Navy was unable to undertake the task of escorting landing troops through the vast seas mentioned.

Even if he has mastered the air superiority, the navy's strength can barely escort the first batch of 100,000 people across the sea. To transport the second batch of 160,000 people and heavy equipment across the strait at one time, it will take two million tons of ships, and it is already barely tempting to find one million tons.

Even with enough ships, it is difficult for the port to board the ship to accommodate such a large number of ships.

Among the ships the Navy can collect, there are many barges that are only suitable for transport in inland rivers. These barges can only withstand the third-level wind at most, and it is difficult to adapt to transport in the English Channel where winds are high and waves are severe.

Redell further pointed out that landing on the vast coastline means that the high tide time of each selected landing site varies from three to five and a half hours. Therefore, either accept unfavorable tide conditions at certain landing sites, or the Army abandons the idea of ​​landing at different locations at the same time.

Chen Dao and Gorin were all unrelated to each other and stood up high. They sat and watched the navy and army quarrel, and were furious.

A command from Hitler put an end to the debate. He ordered Keitel to be the coordinator, coordinate the opinions of the Army and the Navy, and come up with a practical plan and submit it in a week.

"Hermann, if an attack on the British mainland is launched, can the Air Force guarantee air supremacy over the Strait?" Hitler asked.

Goering had already made up his mind not to make any promises and said with a sad face: "In order to ensure the victory of the Norwegian Battle and the French Battle, the Air Force lost 2,784 aircraft in four, five, six and three months. The losses of the aircraft are easier to supplement, but the losses of the pilots are very difficult to supplement. I think it is better to ask the Army and Navy Command to come up with the final plan first. During the period when they formulated the plan, the Air Force would do its best to supplement the losses, and then talk about the issue of cooperating with landing operations."

A meeting ended without any result. After the meeting, Gorene did not leave immediately, but stayed in the Prime Minister's Office.

Two hours later, Gorene returned to the Air Force Command office.

Chen Dao was already impatient to wait. When he saw Golin coming back, he immediately met him and asked impatiently: "What did the Head of State say?"

"The Head of State was very happy to see me submitting plans to him, saying that I am worthy of being his closest and reliable comrade-in-arms and knowing to prepare in advance, unlike the Army and Navy, who do things without any prospects." Goring said excitedly.

"What does he think of our plan?" Chen Dao asked.

"He said he wanted to stay and read it slowly, and then talked to me about some other topics, very important topics," said Gorene.

"What topic?" Chen Dao asked.

"He asked me if we could turn our landing in Britain into a psychological threat, restraining the British troops in the British mainland and preventing them from being transferred overseas. This way, Italy's attack in the Mediterranean would be much smoother, and we would not need to send troops to the Mediterranean to support Italy. Moreover, if the Royal Navy's huge forces were restrained in the British mainland, it would weaken Britain's escort force in the Atlantic Ocean and relieve the pressure for our submarine troops to attack British transport ships." Gorling said.

"Do you think he is really asking for your opinion, or is it just a flash of inspiration to talk to you casually?" Chen Dao asked.

"I think he is asking for my opinion very seriously, because he also asked me, if we prepare to attack Britain with great fanfare, will we form strategic deception against Russia and reduce the Russians' vigilance against us?"

"What do you think the head of state's true thoughts?" Chen Dao asked.

"There is only one answer. He doesn't want to land in the UK. He is just bluffing and bewitching the Russians. Then he waits for an opportunity to sneak attack Russia." Goring said.

"Also to confuse the British, attract the main force of the British to the British mainland, and relieve the pressure on Italians in the Mediterranean, just as he said himself." Chen Dao said.

"Fortunately with your reminder, I did not promise to take down the air supremacy of the Strait. Otherwise, the war would be halfway through, and the head of state suddenly said that we would give up Britain to attack Russia. Our air force would lose at least half of the pilots, and they were all elites who had experienced the test of the battles of Poland and France." Goring's face showed a look of lingering fear.

Chen Dao was silent for a while and suddenly asked, "When will the props I want be ready?"

“It will be done today.”

"It's very good. Whether the head of state can be convinced depends on these two props." Chen Dao said.

Hitler's reaction was much faster than Chen Dao expected. The next morning, Hitler called Goring's office and asked Goring and Chen Dao to see him.

In Hitler's office, as soon as Chen Dao and Gorene sat down, Hitler asked anxiously: "Is this "Defense Forces' Horror Theory of Heart War Propaganda" planned by the two of you?"

Goring nodded and said, "We worked together to complete it."

"This is a very......" Hitler pulled a long voice in his mouth, as if looking for a suitable vocabulary.

"It's a very interesting plan. I'm very interested in the splitting action inside. I'm also very interested in the man named Grandson. Is this grandson the grandson of which famous general? Or is he called grandson himself? How could the Oriental people give such a strange name?" A strong seeking for knowledge burst out in Hitler's eyes.

Chen Dao knew that Gorene could not answer the profound question of who his grandson was, and he had to do it himself.

"Of course his name is not Sun Tzu. This is a translation issue. In German, the official name of the Art of War should be "The Art of War of War" and you should call him "The Art of War of War."

"It turned out to be Mr. Sun. Thank you, Heinz. I have learned some new knowledge." Hitler said.

Lao Xi's attitude today is quite correct and he knows how to be modest. Chen Dao praised Hitler's performance in his heart.

"Who will explain to me the principle of this separating action?" Hitler's eyes swept across Goring and Chen Dao's faces.

Gorene waved his hand gracefully: "Heinz, give you a chance to show your performance, and you will explain it to the head of state."

Chen Dao took the ball kicked by Goring without hesitation and said to Hitler: "This issue must start with the Lord Sun. In his military tactic, Mr. Sun said that before the war begins, there are five things to think about, and the first of the five things is Dao.

Taoism means to make the people agree with the emperor. It means to find ways to make the people agree and support the will of the government so that the people can advance and retreat with the government and fight together."

"This sentence makes sense, but it's nonsense. Which government has tried every means to win the recognition of the people? Our party has also tried hard to win the recognition of the people and gained enough votes before coming to power. I have a deeper understanding of this sentence than anyone else." Hitler said.

Chen Dao subconsciously touched his forehead and thought to himself that he had forgotten that Lao Xi was the head of state elected by the people, so he had enough confidence to say this.

"Don't distract me. What I want to say is how to apply this concept to war. First, let's analyze the psychology of the British. Why did the Chamberlain government implement an appeasement policy for us? A large part of the reason comes from public opinion. Why? Because the British were already scared by the heavy losses of the last war. The number of British killed in the last war was as high as 880,000, and the number of disabled people reached 1.66 million. The British did not want to fight another nightmare war. The same is true for the French, so their fighting will is so low." Chen Dao said.

Hitler nodded and said, "I don't want to."

Chen Dao ignored Hitler's words and continued: "The British, to be precise, the British people do not want to fight. The reason why they entered the war was dragged into the war by the British government, and it was because Poland was dragged into this war. Therefore, their fighting will is not firm enough, which can be seen from the combat performance of the British Expeditionary Force. The British government wants to fight, but the British people do not want to fight. This is our opportunity. We should use their psychology to separate the relationship between the British government and the people, so that the British government cannot gain the recognition of the people, let alone support.

The reason why the British people are now standing by the British government is entirely because of the British government's intimidation of them. The British government intimidates them. It says that Germany will soon land in the UK. With the idea of ​​defending its homeland, the British people are united by the British government.

If we really attack the British mainland, even if we only drop a bomb in the British mainland, it is equivalent to helping the British government turn their intimidation into reality, which is equivalent to... "

"This is equivalent to helping the British government complete the process of 'to make the people share the same desire', so that the British people can only unite by the British government and fight us to the end. Is this what you want to say?" Hitler asked.

"That's what it means. The status of Your Excellency Sun in the Eastern military is equivalent to that of Clausewitz in the Western military. He puts the relationship between the people and the government in the war first, and there must be his reason. So we must follow his teachings and find a way to separate the relationship between the British government and the people, so that the British government will not gain the recognition and support of the British people, and indirectly weaken the British combat effectiveness." Chen Dao said.

"So you thought of a way to achieve this goal with a gentle word and a big stick in your hand?" Hitler said.

"We should speak with our hearts and pull them away from Churchill, so that Churchill will not get the support of the British people. We should use a big stick in our hands to beat Churchill himself to make him bruised and swollen, and let him be majestic in front of the British people."

"I get it. So you want us to attack the Mediterranean and to attack Churchill's prestige by seizing British colonies in the Mediterranean?" Hitler asked.

"No. That's just one purpose, and it's a secondary purpose." Chen Dao said.

"What is the main purpose?" Hitler asked curiously.

"The main purpose is...what do you think of oil?" Chen Dao asked.

"Oil is the blood of industry. Without oil, there is no industry. What does this have to do with our attack on the Mediterranean?" Hitler asked.

Chen Dao did not answer, but took out the first item he had carefully prepared from the briefcase he carried with him and handed it to Hitler.

"This document was sent by a secret agent we installed in the United States. It indicates the oil reserves of countries in the Middle East. The figures are very amazing. I think whoever grasps the Middle East will master the future of the world. Now the British are unprecedentedly weak in the Middle East. I think we should seize this opportunity to occupy the Middle East and gain the power to control the world."

"The total reserves are 80 billion tons!" Hitler couldn't help but exclaimed after seeing the numbers on the "props".

"There are so many? Could you make a mistake?" Hitler covered his chest with an incredible expression on his face.

Chen Dao rolled his eyes and thought to himself that the number was made up by himself, and there was absolutely no possibility of correctness.

Goring pretended to be sad and said, "It's true, and this is just a proven reserve. We don't know how many hidden reserves are. This information was sent back by an agent we arranged for in the US government. According to the intelligence sent by another agent we installed in the United States, the agent unfortunately exposed himself for this information. He committed suicide and died for the country the moment before the American agent arrested him. It was a pity."

Hitler showed a regretful expression on his face.

"What's the name of that agent? I must give him a medal."

"His name is James Bond, codenamed 007." Goering, according to Chen Dao's teachings, seriously fooled Hitler.

"James Bond? Why is it a British name?" Hitler asked.

"The agent's father is British and his mother is German. His father died when he was very young. He and his mother have been living in Germany. In addition to his name, he is a pure German." Goering continued to fool him.

"I will remember this name. When the war is over in the future, I will ask the film company to use him as the prototype to make a special agent movie to commemorate him." Hitler said.

"I raise my hands to agree." Chen Dao raised his hands high.

Goring also raised his hands to join in the fun.

Hitler stared at the information in his hand and said word by word: "For the sake of 007 and for the future of Germany, I announce my entry into the Middle East."

"First of the People, you are so wise." Goering gave Hitler a high hat that was worthless without hesitation.

"According to that plan, we have to stab Stalin first before entering the Mediterranean and create chaos in the UK. These are all time-consuming, and we must start preparing immediately." Chen Dao said.

"I almost forgot. You said there are props that can make the blood of the Russian Purgatory flow more. What kind of props are they?" Hitler asked.

"It's a model." Chen Dao took out a tank model from the suitcase he brought.

"What kind of tank is this?" Hitler asked curiously.

"Its name is t-34." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
