"Are we just going to stop at the gates of Europe?" Fan Chong was a little unwilling.

"Don't we have a backup plan?" Meng Xiang said with a smile beside him.

"Backup? Really going to take this step? Fan Chong said tangled.

"And what about the Germans?" Meng Xiang asked rhetorically.

Fan, who had always had a good impression of Germany before, could only smile bitterly and stop talking.

War involves more than just fighting on the battlefield, and it is not just about the opponent.

It was one thing to hit the door of Europe and provoke more fierce resistance from Britain and the United States, and the Germans also spoke.

Although Germany and China did not explicitly state it at the beginning, they tacitly acquiesced in the respective rights and interests of China and Germany in Asia and Europe on various occasions.

The Germans welcomed China's sweep of Britain and the United States in Asia and the constant involvement of the Allies, but if China wanted to enter Europe, there were endless debates in Germany so far, and a unified opinion could not be formed.

In the past, the Germans were more inclined to let China enter Europe, but when China defeated the Americans in a row and became more and more aggressive, more Germans changed their position.

Before, the Germans felt that they were still the boss and could hold down the Chinese steadily, but at this time, even they were worried about whether the Chinese would have inflated ambitions and directly occupy Europe.

In the current situation of fighting with the allies, the Chinese people will not be so short-sighted, but what about the future?

No one would believe that friendship between nations will last forever.

Even in one of the archives of the Germans, there was a top-secret plan to attack China in the future, seize the Middle East and Central Asia, and open up colonies in Asia, and some Germans even shouted the slogan of exterminating all colored people with ultra-nationalism. Perhaps after the war, a more powerful Germany, which united Europe, would have a more ambitious goal.

Who can believe that the Chinese people are willing to only guard Asia and no longer have the earth in their hearts?

If it weren't for the ultimate position and interests of the hegemon of the earth, the Germans would not have done so badly with the Americans.

Europe has deposited centuries of industrial wealth that no country with global aspirations can ignore.

The Germans, though having swallowed the innumerable wealth of Europe, have not yet absorbed enough nutrients. The young and strong man was consumed on the battlefield first, so that his vitality was greatly damaged. Even with the help of Huaxia. Completely quell this world war, and there is no longer the strength to start a war with Huaxia.

In the final analysis, in a word: the Germans are also afraid of the Chinese army.

Compared with Britain and the United States, the Germans, who had always cooperated with China, were most aware of China's military strength. If the Germans were at their peak in 42, they might not have been so worried about the Chinese army, but now they have to rely on the question of whether they will let the Chinese last fishermen benefit.

Even if it is worried that the Chinese army will not leave in Europe. If there is a problem in the future, it is better to draw the bottom line at the beginning.

For this reason, Ribbentrop personally flew to the central capital of China, asked to see Meng Xiang, and sent a large gift list, including a large number of technologies, to discuss the matter.

Meng Xiang was reserved and didn't promise anything at first. Until the Germans' gift list chips kept rising. Even Lao Xi secretly went to Baghdad, Iraq, and had another cordial meeting with Meng Xiang before signing the next "Baghdad Treaty," which formally determined the division of power between the two sides in Europe and Asia in the form of a document.

It is clearly stipulated here that the military is not allowed to enter the opponent's sphere of influence without the permission of the other side.

The ten-year contract made the Germans realize that they could quickly recover while occupying the resources of the whole of Europe.

Even if there were accidents during the period, the Germans could not hold on. It's not too late to ask Huaxia for help. Whatever the reason. For the wealth of Europe, it is of interest to every country.

Thereupon. With the signing of the Baghdad Treaty between the two countries, it was natural that the Chinese army would stop outside the gates of Europe first.

So many armies stop there, and they need an explanation both internally and externally.

So on April 5th, when the 400,000 troops continued to slowly squeeze into the Black Sea straits, the other 400,000 troops turned to the southeast and continued to sweep across the Middle East, and even 150,000 of them swept past Jordan and then invaded the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt.

In order to compensate the Chinese, and even to include no more attacks on the European part of Turkey, the Germans abandoned most of North Africa and acquiesced in the actions of the Chinese in North Africa.

The German military operations in North Africa, which had previously been aimed at stepping on the corns of the British, were now mainly aimed at containing the Suez Canal and blocking the choke point connecting the Allied forces in Asia and Europe.

But now that there are Chinese people receiving it, the same effect can be achieved, and it can continue to attract the energy of Britain and the United States. Anyway, the Germans don't need the Suez Canal now, except for the trade with China.

Even the sphere of influence in East Africa, along with the entire Red Sea, was ceded to China by the Germans with the tacit consent of the Germans.

Africa is the traditional source of resources in Europe, although the Germans are not reconciled, but at this time they can't control these, it is better to throw them out, leading China and the Allies to compete for consumption here.

Of course, they left behind the Atlantic coast of Africa, from the Moroccan Strait of Gibraltar to Namibia and other southern Africa, all the way to the Atlantic, covered by the German colonial sphere of influence agreed in the Baghdad Treaty.

It is only under the tough attitude of China that South Africa, the jewel of Africa, together with the Cape of Good Hope overlooking the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, has become a pending area.

After many negotiations, it was finally decided that whoever grabbed it would be counted as whom.

In addition to South Africa's abundant resources, holding the Cape of Good Hope is also the key to controlling the Indian Ocean.

The Germans were no longer able to take care of this place at this time, but they refused to let go of this African diamond in vain, and laid an ambush for the future, so they decided on such a move. At this time, they wished that the Chinese army would immediately hit here, cut off the British treasury, and even more involve the energy of the Chinese and allied forces, so as to prevent the Chinese army from wandering around the gates of Europe.

Today, in the face of the Chinese at the door of Europe, neither the Allies nor the Germans will be at ease. If the Chinese stay there, they will attract the attention of the Allies and dare not relax at all, and relying on the fierce attacks of the Chinese during this period of time, the Germans have already relieved their breath by attracting the main forces of the Allies. They have the confidence to continue to digest Europe, replenish it, and finally stand above everyone's heads.

……

"We still have to put on a posture, after all, we can't do without Germans for our current development!" Looking at the news that the Chinese army was constantly advancing on the Sinai Peninsula, Meng Xiang couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Obviously, Europe is close at hand, and the Huaxia army still can't break in, which makes Meng Xiang still feel a little depressed. Even if the door of Africa is about to be kicked open by the Chinese army, it will only be slightly relieved.

China, which already occupies almost all of Asia and Australia, has no shortage of resources, and the African continent may be more attractive to the Germans, but it is not the most urgently needed for China. Just like the Japanese who guarded the resource vaults of Southeast Asia during World War II and could not digest them, what China lacks now is to digest resources and strengthen its industrial steel appetite.

Although the industrial foundation has been laid, the digestion capacity is still insufficient, and the capacity of large-scale industrial production needs to be improved.

In the case of having already turned against Britain and the United States, the upgrading of Huaxia industry can only count on the Germans.

"It will take many years for us to digest and absorb these technologies!" Zhou Bai's original words made Meng Xiang can't help but roll his eyes.

The Germans had a demand for China, and some of the technology would no longer be hidden, and many of them traded with China in exchange for precious time to restore their strength.

China's industry has only just started, even if some technology is obtained, it is not as fast as Europe, which has infiltrated industrial machines into its bones, and the Germans who control Europe are not afraid of the Chinese people to catch up in a short time.

"What we have to do is not to catch up with the Germans at an overall level now, or to surpass them, but to master those ways to catch up. As long as the method is in place and the direction is correct, as our own talents grow up, we Huaxia will be able to grow into the world's first industrial power by ourselves. Meng Xiang instructed.

He also understands the industrial gap between China and the Germans, and it is impossible to expect that after the industrial strength of China surpasses the Germans, he will grab the fat of Europe in the mouths of the Germans.

Industry is only the strong backbone of Huaxia in the future, and at this time, Huaxia's minions have been sharpened by the base, and what is lacking is just an opportunity.

"Then we need two years at most, and we can get all the technologies on this list, and carry out in-depth research on our own." Looking at the list of technical and equipment support for industrial upgrading provided by the think tanks and added and modified under the guidance of Meng Xiang, Zhou Bai, who understood the current situation in China at this time, pondered for a long time, and finally gave Meng Xiang an exact timetable.

"Two years is still too much! Know that a lot of what we have can be obtained directly from the future of Europe, including a large number of talents in Europe, we can also get it! Meng Xiang shook his head and said to Zhou Bai, "We may be able to start a European operation earlier." ”

……

"Now, let the unwilled Germans continue to bear the wrath of the Allies in Europe!" The corners of Meng Xiang's mouth curled up in his heart.

The Germans were on guard against China, and Meng Xiang was not to eliminate the hidden danger of the Germans.

Since the Germans insisted, Meng Xiang also pushed the Chinese army to stop at the door of Europe, waiting for the Germans to continue to suffer in the anger of the Allies, and completely consume the vitality of the future and Huaxia competition.

"I'm also wondering how long the Germans can hold out?" Meng Xiang smiled at the helpless fan, "Maybe this time is a little earlier than we planned!" (To be continued.) )
