Chapter 15 Ask Them
"The Allied forces launched a large-scale attack on the Strait of Messina. Although the Chinese Federal Government and the Allied forces are both warring sides, the Chinese Federation hopes that both sides of the Strait of Messina will pay attention to the possibility of humanitarian disasters. If possible, please do your best to assist the work of the United Nations Angel International!"
This is another place where two of the three major forces in the world - the Allies and the Axis powers miscalculated, because when the United Nations was established, Angel International was almost the first non-governmental organization to join. Everyone knows that the world no longer has the opportunity to compete with the Chinese Federation or the future United Nations in this matter. Fortunately, what makes politicians happy is that Angel International announced that it will not treat any differently in charity because of whether it is a member of the United Nations.
The center of "Angel International" is the "City of Angels" that is already in the Pacific Ocean when he left the Dutch port. As readers and friends know, it has become the world's center for the prevention and control of vicious infectious diseases. Countries have sent domestic patients such as "leprosy" and other types of vicious infectious diseases to the island by plane or airship.
"City of Angels" is the world's infectious disease prevention and control activities center, and health institutions in many countries have cooperated with it most closely. At the same time, countries have also provided research funds to it, in addition to United Nations funds and charity. Although "Angel International" is a charity, its research institutions are naturally non-profit organizations. However, as the most cutting-edge infectious disease development institutions in the world, vaccines, including research results, countries that have not invested "research funds" do not have the right to use them free of charge, except for charity carried out by Angel International in the country.
That being said, but in addition to those extremely poor African countries in the world, many countries have invested this part of their medical institutions on the "Angel Island". All major countries know that if they do not participate in activities that are of high value to all mankind, they will be exposed to the whole world in the future by "first-line connections".
Under such circumstances, the scale of "Angel Island" is larger than in the past. Even the small nuclear reactor donated by the Chinese Federation is the most important energy source beyond wind power. Funds from various countries have also made the research facilities here the world's cutting-edge infectious disease research room. In terms of security, just like a camp that provides charitable work on the battlefield, Thunder International was directly hired as a security force.
But in the news just now, the Italian king Victor Emmanuel III was not concerned about a "humanitarian disaster". He was not interested in the world-class charitable monopoly organization "Angel International". What he was worried about was the battle situation in Italy.
Until now, Italy has no army from other countries to assist in defense except for the assistance of a small Spanish legion. What's worse is that most of the Italian troops who returned from foreign countries are still on the way. After all, the Japanese Empire's rebellion is only a short time now, and then Italy withdrew from the Axis powers due to the establishment of the United Nations.
Because of the return and adaptation of the army, the Italian army was at its weakest moment. The country could only rely on the returned army to deal with the US attack. At the same time, it was said that it also planned to launch a war with the Allied forces in the future against the British colonies Kenya, Sudan, Egypt, and other colonies in the world.
This often made Victor Emmanuel III feel worried. He believed that Benito Mussolini had been too close to Tang Yunyang and had forgotten his responsibilities to Italy. After all, Italy had withdrawn from the Axis powers at this moment and gained some benefits in France and other parts of the world. So is it time for Italy to try its best to protect its interests and escape unstoppable?
Also, Japan's turnaround, the Chinese Federation was dragged into war, and the United Nations declared war on the Allied forces, which also changed the attitude of the king of the Kingdom of Italy, Vittorio Emmanuele III to the Chinese Federation. Of course, please don't think that His Majesty the King is just compassionate, or to consider the issue from the "height of all mankind". If that is the case, King Vittorio Emmanuele III will feel that he is too "two".
He was just worried that at this moment, he had mobilized almost all countries in North America, South America, and the Allies of most European countries, would force the Chinese Federation to recognize the power of the Allies and eventually gain a major position internationally, especially Europe and America. Like most veteran politicians, the "war" in which the Allies and the Chinese Federation were fighting and fighting was nothing more than a demonstration of strength and a confrontation at the international political level. He even sometimes wondered whether there would be a war between them.
I think Japan and the Soviet Union were just chess pieces used, so they really could fight with the Chinese Federation. He could even conclude that these two self-righteous countries would perish miserably. Especially Japan, at this moment, it is already certain that 100% of them would be beaten into scorched earth. The only difference is whether to use conventional weapons or nuclear weapons.
He firmly believed that the Chinese Federation would not use nuclear weapons against the Allied forces. This was precisely a major factor in his judgment on the outcome of the future war. Another factor was that if the Allied forces were victorious, then as a European country, would Italy be excluded by allied members in the future. It is precisely for this reason that the head of state of Italy, Benito Mussolini, was really in danger.
These thoughts often made the Italian king Vittorio Emmanuele III feel a headache. He didn't know how to deal with Benito Mussolini. Because this guy has the support of the Chinese Federation, he wanted to hear about Benito Mussolini's main supporter - Costanzo Ziano, the Duke of Cabri.
At this moment, King Vittorio Emanuele III has already obtained the pro-British and American fascists and the Speaker of the League Grandi (there is also Ziano in history, but he is still young in this book, so he has nothing to do), some members of the Fascist Committee and other leaders of the Fascist Party. Another consists of royalists and senior generals of the three armies who are closely related to the royal family, including former Interior Minister Federzoni, former Minister of Defense Marshal Diaz and Chief of General Ambrosio, who proposed to "return the power of the state to the king."
So how should King Vittorio Emmanuele III choose? In a sense, this matter depends on Costanzo Ziano, the father of Duke of Cabri and Galeazo Ziano.

After all, when a main partner of the "head of state" abandoned by the Chinese Federation, his position in Italy and even in international politics will be completely lost because he stood in the wrong team. But he is very suspicious of this matter. As of now, the Chinese Federation has not given up any friend. The only problem is, is Benito Mussolini a friend of the Chinese Federation?
This is a question, but if he knew the real content, he would be frightened and unable to sleep.
"Your Majesty, you are so anxious to call me into the palace. Is it..."
Facing the thin face of Duke Costanzo Ziano and King Vittorio Emmanuele III, who rushed over, looked even more worried. Because the country tended toward Britain, the United States, and those who opposed Benito Mussolini told him that if Benito Mussolini continued to serve as prime minister, the Allies would continue to attack Italy and continue the war until Italy surrendered.
"His Excellency Duke, there is one thing...you know, we are facing an attack from the US military..."
Duke Costanzo Ziano is a smart man. The words of King Vittorio Emmanuele III have already made him understand what the problem he is about to face. But he dared not speak up about this problem. He was not afraid that Benito Mussolini would be unhappy. As for King Vittorio Emmanuele III's ideas, it has nothing to do with him.
After seeing Tang Yunyang, he knew that if Benito Mussolini was supported by the Chinese Federation, then whoever asked him to step down might die! In terms of safeguarding international interests, he had never seen a country that was stronger than the Chinese Federation. Moreover, this has nothing to do with national development. Looking at the allies of the Chinese Federation in the world, except for the surrounding countries, all of them are the countries with the highest development speed in the world.
Facing the melancholy on the face of King Vittorio Emmanuele III, Duke Costanzo Ziano tian took his lips and said the following sentence.
"Your Majesty, some things may not be decided by us, but we must recognize the future of Italy. You know that this is a matter of life and death!"
