Chapter five hundred and eighty seventh China-Germany-France alliance
In Munich, just as Ampos and Guderian were formally signing the alliance agreement in Bratislava, Slovakia, Ouyang Yun's special envoy Gu Weijun was having in-depth talks with Falkenhausen in an ancient castle.
What Ambos didn't know was that the Chinese had done a lot of work behind the scenes in order to promote the alliance between Germany and France. Among them, Gu Weijun and Falkenhausen played a crucial role.
Time goes back to a month ago, in this ancient castle, Falkenhausen met with the Chinese delegation headed by Gu Weijun. With the fact that Germany was defeated, the country was divided into two camps due to political reasons. He did not want to see Germany
Falkenhausen, who was fighting against each other, took the initiative to retire and live in an apartment. Because he once served as the head of the military advisory group to aid China, even when he served as governor-general in other parts of Europe, Falkenhausen still worked with many
Chinese friends maintain close contact. For this reason, when Gu Weijun secretly visited Europe, he met Falkenhausen relatively easily.
Of course, Falkenhausen has deep feelings for China. This is also the fundamental reason why he took special care of the Chinese during the European War. Of course, because he was particularly favored by Chiang Kai-shek when he was in China, he was particularly fond of China.
He was very dissatisfied when the Xuebing Army entered Chongqing and sidelined Chiang Kai-shek.
"Without President Chiang, it would have been impossible for China to defeat Japan. What does Mr. Gu think of this point of view?" Straight to the point, he asked this question directly to Gu Weijun.
It can be seen that this problem has been bothering Falkenhausen for a long time, which is why he seems so impatient.
Objectively speaking, because he has had in-depth contact with Ouyang Yun and received sufficient respect and attention from Ouyang Yun during his two visits to China, Falkenhausen personally does not have much prejudice against Ouyang Yun. But obviously,
As a person with relatively traditional ideas, Ouyang Yun's behavior of leading the student army into Chongqing and silencing Lao Chiang was considered to be treasonous and unethical, so he could not accept it.
Unexpectedly, Falkenhausen would raise such an important question as soon as they met. Gu Weijun looked around with a wry smile. Seeing that all his subordinates seemed to be staying out of the matter, he thought for a moment and then turned around and asked: "General
, is this your personal opinion?”
With a very cunning answer, Falkenhausen stared into Gu Weijun's eyes and said: "No, this should be able to represent the opinions of the vast majority of Germans. Of course, this is just an opinion. After all, we have no intention to interfere in China's internal affairs."
meaning and ability.”
Not wanting to get entangled in this issue at all, Gu Weijun changed the topic directly and said: "General, I think it is necessary for me to introduce to you the purpose of our visit to Europe. We are here for world peace. In addition, because I have accepted
We have received Germany's favor, so we are willing to do something for the reunification and peace of Germany."
"For world peace? Does China have this ability now? Oh, I almost forgot, the headquarters of the United Nations is now located in Guangzhou. If the United Nations can be recognized by the vast majority of countries, China can make some use of it,"
Falkenhausen has never been an easy person to get along with, and the upright nature of Germans makes many truths appear barbed once they come out of his mouth, making people feel very uncomfortable.
Fortunately, China has made great efforts to study Falkenhausen. Because they know his temper, Gu Weijun and others were not offended by these words and were able to continue to maintain their gentlemanly demeanor.
"General, do you doubt the representativeness of the United Nations? Well, from a personal standpoint, you have every right to do so. However, from a national standpoint, I think it is not a good thing for Germany to doubt the United Nations."
Gu Weijun's German was very good, and Falkenhausen had no difficulty listening at all. These words made him think deeply. After a few minutes, he looked up at Gu Weijun and said, "Mr. Gu, why do I feel that your words are a bit alarmist?"
What do you mean? To put it bluntly, the United Nations has now been reduced to a tool for your country to manipulate international public opinion. What does it have to do with Germany?"
Are the Germans really stubborn, or is Falkenhausen simply unaware of the crisis Germany is facing now? Gu Weijun thought in his mind, and the expression on his face became serious. He also stared into Falkenhausen's eyes and said: "General
, are you sure that it has nothing to do with Germany? Or, do you think that Germany does not need to bear responsibility for initiating World War II? As far as I know, neither the British, the French, nor the Soviet Russia seem to be known for their magnanimity.
Right? I would like to ask, what do you think is the reason why the United States, the Soviet Union, and the United Kingdom are not holding Germany accountable now? Or, do you think the United States, the Soviet Union, and the United Kingdom will give up this right?"
Falkenhausen chewed these words seriously, and his expression gradually became serious. "Although Germany is now in a civil war, whether it is the United Kingdom, the United States or the Soviet Union, if they dare to infringe on Germany's interests, I think all Germans
They will all stand up and fight to the death! Just like all the warlords in your country united to resist the Japanese invasion."
Gu Weijun smiled and exchanged glances with his men, and said: "I have never doubted the German people's fighting will to resist foreign invaders. However, no matter how powerful Germany is, can it resist the allied forces of the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain, and even Japan?
Of course, this may not happen because we will defeat the so-called anti-China alliance."
Falkenhausen was silent. He had thought about the relationship between the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and Japan to form an anti-China alliance with Germany since the New Delhi meeting. As Gu Weijun said, today, the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and Japan can form an anti-China alliance against China. Then
After defeating China, will they form an anti-German alliance? The answer is of course yes.
When he thought of this, he sighed softly and said: "Of course I know this truth, but the current situation in Germany-" At this point, he shook his head.
"The current situation in Germany is indeed a bit bad, but we believe that the Wehrmacht will definitely win in the end!" Gu Weijun said decisively.
"Oh?" Falkenhausen looked at him.
"As I said just now, one of the purposes of our trip to Europe is to do something for the peaceful reunification of Germany!"
There was silence again, and after a while, Falkenhausen said: "Tell me your conditions!"
"Conditions? Oh, you can also call them conditions..."
"You said that your government is willing to send the Pacific Fleet to expedition into the Atlantic for the French Zionist Army?!"
"We have been to the Atlantic Ocean before, and we also pinned the American Atlantic Fleet immobile on the east coast of the United States! General, no matter now or in the future, there is no core interest dispute between China and Germany. Since we have a common enemy,
So why don’t we join forces?”
"Okay, I will do my best to promote the alliance between China, France and Germany!"
