Chapter 32: Closed Doors
After meeting with Hitler, the group secretly left Germany and headed for Rome.
Europe has a long civilization, and Rome has a glorious history.
Rome is the birthplace of ancient Rome and the splendid culture of the world. It has a history of more than 2,500 years. It is a world-famous historical and cultural city and the birthplace of the ancient Roman Empire. It is nicknamed "Eternal City" because of its long history.
Rome is located on seven small hills in the plains of the lower Tiber River in the central and western Italian Peninsula. It is Italy's largest and most populous city and one of the most famous tourist destinations in the world.
Now, the nominal ruler of Rome was King Emmanuel III, but the king no longer personally inquire about state affairs, but appointed it to the Prime Minister.
The current Prime Minister is Mussolini! He organized a cabinet and completely controlled Italy's political situation! Although he had not yet reached the dictatorial rule in later generations, Italy completely listened to Mussolini!
It can be said that Mussolini was Hitler's revolutionary mentor. Although Hitler had already begun to make his mark in the German political circle at this time, he was still far from Mussolini!
Hitler came to see Mussolini with admiration. At the same time, at the suggestion of Cialek, Hitler had more expectations. No matter when, having his own power is always the most important thing!
The number of people was not large. Hitler brought Cyric, Gorene, and more than a dozen men to the Prime Minister's Office in Rome.
In history, Hitler did not come to see Mussolini so early, but the idea of paying homage to this revolutionary predecessor has always existed in Hitler's mind.
And now, Hitler is even more impatient! If he can win Mussolini's consent and gain the right to deploy a secret base in the Libyan desert, he can prepare for the future!
Hitler has not yet reached the pinnacle of German power, but Hitler, who has come from World War I, has always been looking forward to the next war. The suggestion of a military base proposed by Cialek is very in line with Hitler's appetite!
"Our Prime Minister is very busy, and I don't know when I will have time to see you." After reporting to his house, Hitler was still turned away.
An escort at the gate of the Prime Minister's Office stopped them.
There are so many people who want to see the Prime Minister, so where can you see it casually!
"Please accept this meaning." Cialek, who was beside him, took out a gold coin and gave it to the guard.
So the guard's face immediately improved: "Okay, then I'll hand in your prayer letter. You can wait, maybe one or two hours, maybe three or five days, or even half a month."
The guard was in a good mood and took the prayer letter handed over by Hitler and headed into the Presidential Palace.
No matter where you go, it is the best way to use money to open the way!
"It seems that we have to think of something else," said Cialek.
Cialek, who came from later generations, has a lot of experience in this area. Even if this greeting is handed over, I don’t know that I will wait until the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month!
At this time, even Hitler's face was quite bad. In Germany, Hitler was already a person who called the wind and rain. After every speech, there were endless voices of roaring and shouting long live Hitler!
But now, he was turned away!
At the same time, Cialek also realized the problem. Recently, no matter what he did, it was quite smooth. Especially after getting a lot of wealth from India, Cialek became even more complacent. Since he was chosen by fate, he would definitely be invincible!
But now, Cialek suddenly remembered that the relationship between Hitler and Mussolini was not friendly at the beginning!
After World War I, Germany was in turmoil everywhere, and its national strength had weakened to the lowest point, while Italy was a seemingly powerful country.
Mussolini even regarded himself as a leader and a mentor, while Hitler was at most a nouveau riche.
Mussolini is an idol, Hitler is a fan, Mussolini is a mentor, and Hitler is a disciple.
In 1934, Hitler took the initiative to come to "meet" Mussolini. This was the first time the two sides met. Before that, Hitler had thought about coming to see each other many times, but he had no chance.
At that time, Hitler was already an important figure in Germany. As a result, Mussolini looked at Hitler for the first time and said to the adjutant, "I'm not used to him."
Mussolini didn't like Hitler. Hitler, who was born good at speaking, came here and became a chattering monk!
Because of his bad impression, Mussolini was very disgusted with Hitler. Later, when Germany showed "abnormal movements" against Austria, he directly took out four divisions to make a statement, threatening Hitler with force not to act rashly.
You know, at that time, Hitler became the head of state! Mussolini's attitude towards Hitler was not very good, but now? The consequences are completely imaginable!
If Mussolini doesn't like Hitler, he will not reach any agreement on the Libyan base! Then his side will return in vain this time!
Cialick, of course, wouldn't let such a thing happen!
"Cialique, what are you good at?" Hitler asked Cialique.
"The gold coins just now were probably spent in vain," Cialick said: "It's not a solution for us to wait here. I think we'd better start from other aspects, such as visiting the most prestigious Earl of Cabri, which may be able to recommend us."
It is easy to do something if someone wants to find Mussolini directly, it is difficult to accept the summons, but it is still possible to find an earl.
In particular, the Earl of Cabri, named Costanzo Ziano, was Mussolini's close friend, a veteran of the party, and a main member of the Rome march with Mussolini. He was later appointed as the heir of Mussolini and served as Minister of Transport and Speaker of the House of Representatives for many years.
It would be easy if we could take the Earl of Cabrie.
However, Hitler was an absolute civilian, and now he has been despised when dealing with the nobles in Germany. Will people recognize him when he comes here to interact with the famous Italian Count?
"I have a way," said Cialek. "Let's wait for an afternoon first. If I can't wait for Mussolini's summons, I'll try it at the Earl's house."
