Chapter 255 Tied to the German chariot
Since the French government's position is to support the current Madrid government, it is of course Mora's enemy!
"If the Spanish army can attack France with us then, we are very welcome. If the Spanish army remains neutral, we only need to rely on the Spanish base."
Cialek continued: "I hope you can agree to this condition. We will remember that the territory of Spain will also be expanded when we take over the credit of France and Spain."
As the former Empire of the Sun never set, Spain and France also had deep conflicts. During the Napoleon period, they fought a fierce battle with Spain and died hundreds of thousands of people.
Soldiers who don’t want to be generals are not good soldiers, and leaders who don’t want to open up territory for their country are not good leaders. Sure enough, Cirick’s condition is slowly changing Mora’s thoughts.
If we agree to the German army using Spain as a springboard to attack France, it is actually no different from Spain's own attack on France. However, Spain is always going to oppose France, so it is the same.
His position has been slowly shaken.
"Also, about the control of Gibraltar, we have always believed that Gibraltar is an indivisible territory of Spain and was forcibly occupied by the British. We support Spain's legitimate demands."
Spain and France have conflicts, and Britain has more, and it is more direct. This is about control of the Strait of Gibraltar!
The Strait of Gibraltar is located between the southern end of the Iberian Peninsula in Europe and the northwest corner of Africa. It starts from Europe to the connection between Cape Lagerga and Cape Sbatel in Africa in the west, and ends at the connection between Gibraltar and Cape Almina in the east. It is about 48 nautical miles in length. The Strait is wide in the west and narrow in the east, with a widest place of 23 nautical miles and a narrowest place of only 6.5 nautical miles.
The Strait of Gibraltar is the only channel connecting the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean, and can be said to be the "lifeline" of the West. Especially after the Suez Canal was opened, the Strait of Gibraltar became a shortcut for sea transportation between the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean!
From the map, the most convenient way to control the Strait of Gibraltar is a peninsula in the north, called Gibraltar.
This place has always belonged to Spain's territory, but in 1704, the British, who was the Empire of Sun and the Sun never set, occupied Gibraltar and established a military fortress. Ten years later, Spain signed a peace treaty with Britain and humiliatedly ceded Gibraltar to Britain.
During the two world wars, this place was an important naval base for Britain. Spain never gave up its sovereignty over Gibraltar. Unfortunately, after decades of fighting in the United Nations, the British just refused to let go.
If Germany wants to win World War II, it has a large amount of resource requirements and the demand for oil is extremely huge. Therefore, in Cialis' plan, the Mediterranean must fall into Germany's control.
Only by controlling the Mediterranean and the oil from Libya can be transported to Germany continuously! Only when Germany can continue the war! In this way, control of Gibraltar must be seized!
And now, there is a good opportunity to inspire Spain to regain their own territory!
"If General Mora wants, we can also help the Spanish army when necessary, just as we are now, to seize the territory of Gibraltar from the hands of the British," said Cirick.
Cialick's idea was very correct. After thinking for more than ten minutes, Mora finally made his decision: "In principle, I can accept all these three opinions."
Mora had no possibility of rejection. Moreover, these were also beneficial to Spain.
Cialek was delighted. In this way, Spain would be tied to a German chariot. At that time, we should fight World War II with Spain obediently!
Throughout history, Franco has always remained neutral and the ungrateful ungrateful wolf has forgotten the help of Germany and Italy during the Civil War!
Now, Cirick has completely rewritten the progress of the Spanish Civil War! General Mora has been relatively cooperative so far. Since that is the case, there is no need to waste time on the Spanish Civil War!
If Mora wants to repent in the future, then she still has the tricks to deal with him. As for now, let’s end the war first!
"General Cialis, when do you think it is more appropriate for us to attack Madrid?" Mora asked Cialis. Now, Mora is also very eager to take Madrid down. In this way, the remaining areas will be a small force of resistance, and the whole of Spain will fall into his control.
"Not now, wait a few days." Cialek said.
How many days should I wait? This does not fit the style of Cialis! Mora looked at Cialis in confusion and heard Cialis' explanation: "Wait for a few days, if we don't need to fight, Madrid will have civil unrest. At that time, we will attack again and easily score in."
Mora still wondered.
"Today, we deliberately put in a team of people. This team came from Moscow from afar. Their goal was to promote the anti-counterfeiting to the international column, to Spain, and kill all the Trotskyists and anarchists inside." Cirick could only continue to explain.
The whole of Madrid was surrounded. How could those people rush through the valley? Of course, it was the result of our intention to let the water go! Now, we are waiting for internal strife inside!
When it comes to intelligence work, Reinhardt is really a master!
Before Cialick came to Madrid, the information gathered in Cialick's hands. Cialick immediately gave instructions to put these cute people in!
Now, the Soviet Union's purge in the country is in full swing, and of course this trend will also be expanded to Madrid!
Tropsippi, that is a thorn in Stalin's side. Stalin definitely spared no effort to chase them all over the world!
As for anarchists, they are also Spain's original cancer and have serious conflicts with the beliefs of the Third International. It would be better to eliminate them together!
At the same time, in a deeper sense, Cialek seemed to see it too.
Stalin already knew that the situation of the Spanish civil war was irreversible, he had not gained any benefits, and a big city like Barcelona fell, so the Republican army would definitely fail in the end.
So, before failure, raise the butcher's knife and kill all the people they should be killed, and they did not come in vain.
