Section 287 The Foreign Minister's Understanding of China
Hitler picked up his teacup and took a sip of water. He was a little uncomfortable with the current situation. His generals did not put their minds on the battlefield, but actually used internal intrigues, especially the two marshals of the Air Force and the Army. This made him feel very unhappy. These two marshals were related to the offensive situation in the German army and the appearance of the entire army. Unexpectedly, they were like this.
"Mr. Ribintrop, you are the Foreign Minister of our country. You have been dealing with China a lot during this period and have a detailed understanding of China. Although I know you are not a pure soldier, I still want to know what stage China's military strength has developed to now, and whether it is possible for them to break through the Ural Mountains and enter Europe. Just tell me your own opinions, and I will not pursue anything." As for the dispute between the Air Marshal and the Field Marshal, His Excellency Hitler seemed to have seen nothing. He turned his head and looked at the Foreign Minister. The question he asked was also something that everyone else wanted to know. In theory, for such a question, we should find a pure soldier to answer. Unfortunately, the military exchanges between Germany and China have basically stopped recently, so we can only find someone from the diplomatic department to answer.
The Foreign Minister did not expect that such pure military issues would come to him. Now he also figured it out. Hitler did not want to ask soldiers to answer them, but the two soldiers were just a quarrel, and he was just an opportunity for them to divert their gaze. He did not really want to answer them by himself. When these two guys quarreled, they affected themselves.
"Dear Head, I can only talk about this problem from an outsider's perspective. Although I have a lot of contact with China, I am not easy to evaluate the combat effectiveness of the army when encountering problems. I just saw that the number of heavy bombers in the Chinese army is increasing. I remember when I visited China the year before yesterday, I heard that Minister Yan Xishan was processing some official documents, so I went to their staff to check it out. At that time, there were only 1,500 heavy bombers in China. Now, according to the data we have obtained, there are 1,500 heavy bombers on the front line of the Northern Front. They still have hundreds of heavy bombers in Vietnam, and there are still several in Southeast Asia.
There are hundreds of heavy bombers, and the number of heavy bombers in China has at least doubled." It has to be said that the Minister of Foreign Affairs has his own talents. Just relying on some public figures, we can tell everyone that the military strength of China has reached at what stage. If you still don’t know how to fight against China at this time, you may have to consider it yourself. At the beginning of the development, some arrogant generals in the German Army once said that after the Soviet Union was resolved, they would face the Chinese and build a big empire across the world. After conquering China, they could fight to the death with the United States with the help of China.
"In addition, it is their military combat effectiveness. Some information obtained from our internal General Staff, we have also collected some data in the war between the Chinese and the Soviets. Before, we thought that the Soviets' combat effectiveness had improved very strongly, but now practice has proved that when fighting with the Chinese, the Soviets seemed to have not improved their combat effectiveness as a few years ago. Is this true? I just want to say that the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the Soviets is definitely true, and the reason why this result was achieved
, there is only one thing, that is, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese people is increasing rapidly, and their speed is much faster than that of the Soviets." Mr. Ribbentrop finished his words, but the generals present were stunned. He was right, it was not that the combat effectiveness of the Soviets had not improved. Among the wounded people in our German army, it can be fully proved how fast the combat effectiveness of the Soviets improved. However, when fighting against the Chinese people, it was still the same result, which only shows that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese people is much faster than that of the Soviets!
Hitler nodded. He originally wanted Mr. Ribintroup to change his mind and the generals here were fighting power. Unexpectedly, he said such words, which also shocked everyone. Mr. Ribintroup's opinion was fully revealed, that was to try not to start a war with the Chinese. If we really faced the Chinese on the battlefield, our hope for victory was very slim.
At the same time, there is another thing that everyone must face. Everyone thinks of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese people. When the German army started the war, it was indeed the best in the world. The army of every country could not compare with the German army. At that time, whether it was the British or French, when they met the German army, they had to flee in panic. At that time, it was also the time when the German army had the strongest combat effectiveness. But now, after several years of war, the number of experienced veterans in the army has been declining. Coupled with the insufficient supply, the losses on the battlefield were huge. Now the combat effectiveness of the German army cannot catch up with 70% of the original ones. It is growing rapidly while declining rapidly. If the two sides meet on the battlefield, the result can be predicted.
"I understand what gentlemen mean. It seems that we cannot compete with the Chinese on the battlefield. So how should we negotiate with the Chinese? The moon Caterin Arbor is definitely not the end of the Chinese. We can skip this one directly. Can we draw a 30-kilometer dividing line between the two sides with the Ural Mountains as the center and negotiate with the Chinese?" Hitler put forward his thoughts, but his idea was a bit immature.
Such a huge military group, each of which is 30 kilometers, is 60 kilometers in total, and only 60 kilometers in non-combat zone. This is really too close for both sides. It used to be prepared to have a buffer range of thousands of kilometers, but now it is only 60 kilometers, and the descent speed is too fast. What can 60 kilometers do? The aircraft passes with one throttle, and the chance of friction is too high, but how many places can Germany give up now? 60 kilometers is already the limit.
