Chapter 2390 No conflict

Jonathan may have Stockholm Syndrome, but no one else.

After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese in the United States, regardless of whether they were born in the United States or not, were thrown into concentration camps for centralized management. You, an American general, brought back a Japanese woman grandiosely, and called her "Madam", Obviously, an inspirational drama in which a general is captured in a bloody battle and is captured would rather die than surrender, and it is played into an unethical drama such as a relationship between a grandfather and a grandson. MacArthur is probably having a headache, how can he report like Washington Report.

Jonathan did not regain the so-called dignity for Yuko, and was sent away "politely" by the staff of the military service agency.

His Majesty III was not so lucky, and his situation became more and more dangerous.

This winter of 1943 was difficult for everyone.

The Germans are having a hard time. They face increasingly crazy attacks from the Russians.

The Russians are not feeling well either. The joy of victory cannot dilute the sadness of the death of their family members. Since the outbreak of the war, Russia has lost more than 2000 million people. What does this mean to a country with a total population of about 1.9 million people? And know.

It's true that every family wears hemp and wears filial piety.

The Japanese are even more uncomfortable. After losing Nanyang, Japan’s strategy of relying on plunder to support the war has gone bankrupt. Now Japan has entered a dying period. The warships have no fuel, the tanks are getting fewer and fewer, and the Zero fighters are getting worse and worse. The performance is not good at all. The Japanese military boasted that it was so good, with a high failure rate and poor protection, and the engine would be scrapped within a few hours of flying. In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the Zero, the Japanese Air Force has begun to use the Zero as a kamikaze special attack. This is simply drinking poison to quench thirst.

Southern Africa is not doing well either.

As the rear of the Allied Forces, the federal government of Southern Africa and the capital enterprises in Southern Africa have good books on their books. Looking at the past, they have made billions of rands in profits this year and produced tons of supplies. Not only did the war not bring southern Africa To hurt, but to become stronger and stronger.

The actual situation is not optimistic. Although there is a lot of profit, there is no money in the account. The reason is that all the allies are defaulting. Ada and the accountants of the Ministry of Finance are racking their brains every day to consider how to recover the loan.

Now the financial situation of the governments of all countries is not optimistic. The United Kingdom, which is still gritting its teeth, has actually gone bankrupt when calculating government assets. At that time, Africa will change from a big manager to a big wronged species.

His Majesty III's active travels did not have any effect. He had little effect on the allies. Southern Africa, the United Kingdom, the United States, and even France had begun to look for spokespersons for their interests in Italy. The possibility of His Majesty III returning to Italy after the war was infinitely close to zero.

This world war has made all countries fully realize that war is no longer an effective means of solving problems. Even if they win the world war, their national strength has been exhausted, the army has suffered heavy casualties, and the economy has suffered heavy losses. The "Peace Treaty" has nothing, and whoever wants to start a war in the future will be the enemy of the world.

As one of the core countries in the Mediterranean, Italy's stability is very important to neighboring countries and the international situation.

During the reign of His Majesty III, two world wars broke out. Even if Italy was not the culprit, it was also one of the most important promoters. His Majesty III escaped the post-war liquidation last time. .

"The offensive of the British and American coalition forces is slowing down, and even opened up part of the sea channel, giving the German and Italian coalition forces in Sardinia a chance to escape back to the Apennine Peninsula. Our air force sank an Italian warship in the Bonifacio Strait yesterday. The navy 62 people were rescued, all of them Italian civilians.” Major General Torres, the director of operations of the North African Allied Forces, was a southern African, and his dissatisfaction with the British and American Allied Forces was accumulating.

"Italy still has a navy?" Barton was curious. Aren't all the active ships of the Italian navy in Cyprus.

"It's just a civilian ship equipped with artillery, which can be regarded as an armed merchant ship." Torres is not surprised, there are always more ways than difficulties.

Patton expressed his understanding that it is an old tradition in Europe to carry artillery on civilian ships.

An old tradition left over from the age of pirates.

"Alexander found an Englishman named Tony, who is promoting in Sicily, presumably to prepare for the end of the war." Torres, the director of operations, also has a lot to worry about.

"Are the British going to give up His Majesty III—" Barton was a little bit reluctant, but His Majesty III is still valuable.

As the king of the Kingdom of Italy, His Majesty III still has a certain influence in Italy. It is for this reason that southern Africa maintains contact with the Italian royal family.

Until the fat bald head was placed under house arrest, everything was under the control of southern Africa, the fat bald head was successfully dismissed, and the Kingdom of Italy decided to return to the side of justice, which seemed to be a replica of the script of the last world war.

However, His Majesty III messed up all of this. His control over the Kingdom of Italy was not as strong as Southern Africa thought. The life and death of the fat and bald head is uncertain. It has been a long time since he appeared in public. His Majesty III has completely lost his control over Italy. , being abandoned by the British is also reasonable.

"Marshal Badoglio told me yesterday that if we give enough support to His Majesty III, then after the war is over, the Kingdom of Italy under the leadership of His Majesty III will cooperate with us in all aspects." Torres provided The news indicated that His Majesty III had indeed reached the end of his rope.

"Don't even think about it!" Patton's attitude was firm. Even the British looked down on people, and southern Africa naturally didn't like him: "—even if it were replaced by other people, they would still cooperate with us in all aspects. We need A stupid partner, not an old and cunning guy like His Majesty III."

Some people always think they are smart, but they don’t know that they are misunderstood by their cleverness. It is very dangerous to repeatedly jump and step on the wire, and if they do not do it, they will overturn.

Then try another person.

Although the Tony whom Alexander found was of Italian nationality, he was actually British. He was running a timber business in Italian North Africa. This guy aspired to be a politician and was a member of the Italian Grand Council. Tony played some roles in the downfall of the fat bald head.

After the establishment of the Salo Republic supported by Germany, Tony escaped from Italy by bypassing France, and finally arrived in Sicily, where he successfully hooked up with Alexander.

"Everything we do is to save Italy. Italy must restore its autonomy and can no longer follow the trend. After the war, Italy should become a republic, not a freak like it is now." Tony does have ideals, but the difficulty is also very big.

The situation in the Kingdom of Italy is complicated. The royal family and the nobles are one, and the religious forces are also huge. The emerging bourgeoisie needs to speak out, the landlord class must maintain their inherent interests, and there are a lot of spokespersons who have been pushed to the front. Tony is one of them. member.

"To build a new Italy, it is not enough to rely on the support of the United Kingdom. From one camp to the other, this happened twice, and the end result is that everyone does not trust us-" from Naples Criminal lawyer Enrico De Nicola looked sad. Lawyers are professions that need the most trust.

Enrico de Nicola also has the identity of the Senate, but after being elected as a senator, Enrico de Nicola has never been to the Senate and does not participate in any meetings of the Senate. He has resigned on his own initiative many times. Instead of threatening to resign, submit a resignation report directly.

This is the real idle crane, probably because Enrico De Nicola was not attached to power, so after the founding of the Italian Republic, Enrico De Nicola became the first Italian President.

"But what can we do now? I know that compared with the United Kingdom, the support of southern Africa or the United States is more important. The problem is that we lack channels to connect southern Africa and the United States. The United Kingdom is our best choice at present." Tony also knew that the British were unreliable. Sure enough, it was the British who knew the UK best.

"As for the channel, maybe I can think of a way—" Enrico De Nicola has many ways, a criminal lawyer, and he is always good at taking advantage of loopholes.

Enrico de Nicola really has a way, his clients include southern Africans, and it is a special company.

As mentioned earlier, in order to raise funds, Brad’s office has opened many companies in various European countries. Although some of these companies have never engaged in any economic activities since they were registered, they will only appear in special identities at certain special moments , there are still some companies that are doing well, and Strachey is one of them.

Strachey does not have any special meaning, it is just an ordinary name, which is normal in Europe. Many family businesses with a history of one hundred years are named after their names.

Strachey is engaged in the import and export business of automobiles in Sicily. The company is doing well and has some fixed assets in Sicily.

After the war broke out, Southern African enterprises like Strachey became the first victims on the altar. Strachey was forced to close down and its fixed assets were confiscated, resulting in heavy losses.

After the British and American coalition forces recovered Sicily, the fixed assets of Strachey Company in Sicily were taken over by the British and American coalition forces. At this time, the general manager of Strachey company went to the British and American coalition forces to ask for it, but the British and American coalition forces claimed that the property ownership was unknown. Rejected, and Strachey went to the Southern African courts, where Enrico De Nicola was Strachey's lawyer.

The general manager of Strachey's company is Alfred, a French southern African. It is probably because of his dual identity that he was targeted by the Kingdom of Italy.

Not long ago, a scandal broke out in a British newspaper. It is said that the fat bald head’s ex-wife, the beautician Ida Dalsell, broke the news to reporters: the fat bald head had received a generous bribe from the French government during the First World War. He then used his influence to draw initially neutral Italy into war with Austria.

This news is very unfavorable to France, and it is also unfavorable to Italy, so it was reported by British newspapers, which is very reasonable.

It was only then that people noticed that Ida Darcell had died in a mental hospital on San Clemente Island in 1937 from a cerebral hemorrhage.

Then the reporter found out after investigation that Ida Dalser was not a mental patient at all, and his mind was normal all the time.

"For a mere 5000 million lire, it is obviously not a sensible thing to go to court with the British and American allied forces." Tony disapproved of Strachey's approach. It is obviously not worth the money to turn against the Anglo-American coalition forces.

"This is not an isolated incident. As you know, companies in southern Africa suffered heavy losses during the war. They now want to recover and pay compensation. If the British and American coalition forces don't pay the money, then the future Italian government will have to pay." Enri Co de Nicola was neutral, and the more such lawsuits there were, the better Enrico de Nicola's business would be.

"The future Italian government? Why?" Tony was annoyed, as if he had become the future Italian president.

Enrico De Nicola looked at Tony with the eyes of a retard.

Why?
Just because the strength of southern Africa far exceeds that of Italy, when hundreds of southern African warships are put on the sea near Rome, let's talk about whether the Italian government will lose money at that time.

Don't think that the Federal Government of Southern Africa cannot do such a thing. If this happened ten years ago, the Federal Government of Southern Africa might have exercised restraint.

Now--

"You contact the southern Africans first and see what they offer—" Tony was distraught, man-eating ghosts everywhere.

Then get in touch first.

In the evening Enrico de Nicola had dinner with Alfred.

The Strachey Company was indeed powerful. Shortly after the Anglo-American Allied Forces regained Sicily, the Strachey Company returned to Sicily to conduct business, and the first business came from the British-American Allied Forces.

Before the outbreak of the war, Strachey Company was engaged in the import and export business of automobiles. It not only sold automobiles, but also carried out maintenance. The company had a large number of skilled and experienced maintenance personnel.

The British and American allied forces were equipped with a lot of cars, and a lot of cars were damaged during the war. Some of the damaged ones were discarded directly, and those that could be repaired should be repaired as much as possible. Therefore, Strachey Company received the first business.

This is miraculous. While doing business with the British and American coalition forces, it is also a lawsuit against the British and American coalition forces. This kind of thing can only happen in Sicily.

"Sorry Enrico, we don't like Mr. Tony's attitude towards southern African companies. If it's you, then we can consider—" Alfred is a shrewd young man, he is energetic and personable, and he looks Looks like a standard Italian.

Italians are very popular with women.

"No, no, Mr. Alfred, you know, I don't like politics." Enrico De Nicola refused directly, as expected of someone who resigned many times.
