In the north-east corner of Madrid, Franco used to work inside the new Prime Minister's residence.

Franco, a little bald in a military uniform, was staring solemnly at the urgent encrypted telegram in his hand.

The telegram reported that the Germans had succeeded in capturing Ceuta and annihilating all the garrisons in the port of Ceuta.

"What is Hitler doing? How did he suddenly commit aggression against our colony Ceuta? Is he going to invade us, Spain? Or to invade our and French colony Morocco? ”

After reading the telegram, Franco suddenly became angry and scolded angrily.

"It's not clear what the main purpose of the German army is, but we're sending more intelligence officers to gather intelligence, Chancellor!"

Looking at Franco, who was furious, Toledos, the head of Spain's newly formed intelligence service, replied respectfully and cautiously.

"Vichy France's Prime Minister Petain, did he know about it? And countries such as Britain and the United States? ”

Hearing this, Franco turned to stare at Toledos, the head of the intelligence department, and asked fiercely.

"British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was already aware of this aggression, and Prime Minister Petain of France, and Commander Eisenhower of the United States probably did not know about it, because they did not yet have any operational arrangements, except that Britain had dispatched the aircraft carrier fleet of the Imperial Fleet and was on its way to Morocco!"

The head of the intelligence service, Toledos, hastened to reply.

"Who is the commander of the German army in command of the operation this time? Did you find out? ”

Franco continued.

"It's Rommel! He has already disembarked from the aircraft carrier fleet, and he commands no less than 4 infantry divisions, and two armored divisions! ”

The head of the intelligence service, Toledos, hurriedly replied.

"What! How did the Desert Fox come here, and lead so many troops, what is their purpose! Is it really Spain that is coming to invade us, or is it Morocco? ”

As soon as the words fell, Franco's eyes suddenly widened and he exclaimed.

"We're still under urgent investigation on this, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible! Prime minister! ”

After hearing this, Toledoston, the head of the intelligence department, said in a cold sweat.

"Find out the purpose of the Germans for me, and I'll send troops to the port of Melilla at once!" Go down! Later, I will call Hitler myself, and I want him to give me an explanation of what he is doing now! ”

Hearing this, Franco, who had calmed down, immediately made a decision.

"Yes! Prime minister! I'll get you back as soon as I can! ”

Toledos, the head of the intelligence department, looked at Franco, who had already made up his mind, and immediately nodded.

Immediately he hurried out of the chancellor's mansion to collect information on the German troops.

Franco, on the other hand, was also gloomy, picked up the ocean long-distance phone in his office, and dialed the private phone of the Berlin Chancellery.

After a while, Chen Yanlong connected Franco's phone through his own operator and made a call.

"Honorable Führer! I just heard a report from the head of my intelligence department that your German army has sent a large number of troops, under the leadership of Field Marshal Rommel, to carry out air raids, and airborne! Now we have captured our Spanish overseas territories of Ceuta and the port of Ceuta! I would like to know what your purpose is this, honorable Führer? ”

"We, Spain, are now neutral, do you want to go to war against us, honorable Führer?"

As soon as the phone was connected, Franco also took a big breath and immediately asked straight to the point.

"My ultimate goal is the Strait of Gibraltar, which the British occupied, and North Africa!"

"The reason for the temporary occupation of Ceuta is that we need to use it as a springboard before our attack!"

"When our German army has won the final victory, we can consider returning it to your country!"

Regarding Franco's mutiny, threatening tone, Chen Yanlong also responded forcefully without showing weakness.

"What if I don't say yes?"

Hearing this, Franco's heart trembled, and he responded in a cold tone.

"It doesn't matter! We, the German Empire, have never been afraid of any man, or country! If you don't want to, then let's negotiate until you do! And I think Your Excellency has forgotten that you have withdrawn your Blue Division to Spain, and now you are no longer fighting alongside us against the great powers of Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union! ”

After Chen Yanlong heard the other party's threatening words and gunpowder-filled words, he still continued to answer forcefully without showing weakness.

“......”

"You'll regret it! My honorable German Führer! We in Spain are not here to be bullied and fishy, and I, Franco, am not a coward! ”

In this regard, Franco finally couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and retorted viciously and threatened.

"Hmmm! I know! Because I'm the same person as you, maybe we can work together again! ”

Chen Yanlong smiled slightly.

He then hung up the phone without waiting for Franco to reply.

For Franco, Chen Yanlong really doesn't have a good face to show him; If there is really going to be a war with Spain, then go to war! Anyway, there are more mosquitoes biting, one more is not more, and one less is not less.

"Don't forget that our German Empire is not afraid of Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union, how can we still be afraid of a small Spain?"

"And now that so many countries around the world are coming to deal with us, I'm not afraid of one more Franco!"

At this moment, Chen Yanlong shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent expression and muttered.

Then he went on to do things that were important to him, such as what was going on in the Middle East for him who didn't know what was going on with Guderian in the Middle East. Has the unit he led already ascended to the aircraft carrier fleet and reached the Middle East?
