My Third Empire

In fact, Accardo has been troubled, because of his series of actions to change history, so that what should have happened on January 30, 1926, did not happen. The United Kingdom would have withdrawn from the Rhineland region on this day. However, because the two sides signed a series of treaties that allowed Germany to expand the Wehrmacht, the United Kingdom's confidence in Germany was reduced, so this withdrawal did not happen.

Therefore, there is still a small British expeditionary force stationed in the Rhineland region of Germany. Although the number of this army is not large, its existence represents the incompleteness of German territory - of course, Belgium and France also have troops stationed in the Rhineland, and these countries jointly control this demilitarized zone in Germany.

Germany's gradually improving economy has also benefited the United Kingdom. Therefore, under the improved economic environment, the largest workers' strike movement in history, which should have broken out in the United Kingdom in May 1926, was postponed until December 1926. 29th.

This time Arcador decided to trust Stressman again and gave him his ideas as a diplomatic mission. Stressman did not delay, and immediately organized manpower to go to the United Kingdom to launch a diplomatic offensive.

In addition, Accardo dispatched his new confidant, Jerin Nike Cassia, Mercedes' father, to secretly travel to the Middle East, where he had become the actual ruler of Saudi Arabia in January 1926. of Ibn Saud.

This Ibn Saud, his deeds could almost write a novel. In 1891, his father led his family into exile in Kuwait in order to avoid the continuous armed attacks of the Rashid tribe in the neighboring area. 12-year-old Ibn Saud settled there with his father. During this time, he learned from the teacher Koran commentary, hadith, teaching method, history, military, and social activities with his father.

The turning point was at the end of 1901, when he returned to the Arabian Peninsula with his troops, and in January of the following year, he occupied Riyadh by surprise attack and rebuilt the Saudi dynasty. Between 1903 and 1907, defeated the Rashid and their supporters, the Turkish army, and unified the Qasim area.

In 1913 he seized Hasa, a province on the west coast of the Persian Gulf, from the Turks. Between 1919 and 1925, he successively conquered the Emirate of Asir on the coast of the Red Sea, the Rashid Dynasty in the Jebel Shamar region of northern Najd, and the rule of Sharif Hussein of Mecca (who established himself as caliph in 1924) The kingdom of Hijaz, occupying Mecca, Jeddah and Medina. So far, the vast area between the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea has entered the kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

In this war of Ibn Saudi unification of Saudi Arabia, the German Wehrmacht and the British government acted as military advisers and arms dealers, which is a disgraceful role. It can be said that Ibn Saudi was able to take the entire Saudi Arabia so smoothly. , is inseparable from the support of the United Kingdom and Germany.

For some reason, no country in the world has yet recognized the uncrowned king of Saudi Arabia. Arkado decided to be the first to congratulate him and talk to the ruler about the oil import and export trade in Saudi Arabia. Of course, he didn't plan to eat alone, but wanted to pull the British and the French into the group after leaving a good impression on Ibn Saud.

So a mighty German diplomatic combo kicked off. Let January 1927 become the famous German Diplomatic Victory Month in history.

According to the spirit of the Locarno Pact, General Hamestein, the commander-in-chief of the German army, visited France in person and signed a memorandum of understanding with the French.

Immediately afterwards, Stressman went to the United Kingdom and reached a series of economic agreements with the British government.

The German government used potatoes and canned food to repay the war reparations to Britain in advance, and the British government used these substances to appease the striking workers - the British government subsequently issued a statement announcing that it would withdraw from its station in Germany before Valentine's Day, February 14, 1927. of all expeditionary forces.

Immediately after Germany and Saudi Arabia established equal friendly relations, Britain and France both recognized Ibn Saud's rule in the region the next day and signed a treaty of friendship with them. Subsequently, under the leadership of Germany, several countries signed the Agreement on the Allocation of Mineral Resources in the Saudi Arabian Region with Ibn Saudi Arabia, referred to as the Resource Agreement - the content of the agreement is very simple. Britain, France, Germany and the United States invested 10 billion US dollars to buy Saudi Arabia. Resource mining rights throughout Arabia. Any resource mined will be divided into 10 shares, 2 shares to Germany, 2 shares to the UK, 2 shares to France, 1 share to the United States, and 3 shares to be owned by the Saudis themselves.

In February 1927, the second month after the agreement was signed, German and British exploration experts discovered oil in Saudi Arabia, and then oil exploration teams from various countries entered Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and other places and began to set up equipment for mining. local oil resources.

This discovery made the economies of Britain, France, Germany, and the United States, which were already facing collapse, slightly improved. The British government was very satisfied with Germany's diplomatic generosity and humility, and immediately ordered the withdrawal of the British Expeditionary Force from the Rhineland.

Under the overwhelming publicity, Arkado Rudolph led the diplomatic event as the chairman of the Greater Deutsches Party, and was once again praised by the people. Even the elderly President Hindenburg dragged his sick body to the celebration. The ceremony even publicly praised Arcardo as the first person to restore German sovereignty in five years.

This diplomatic victory reassured Hindenburg, who was already worried. He was still worried about the conflicts between the SS troops under Arcador and the SA under Hitler, because these conflicts caused social security in Germany. It is extremely turbulent, bloody street incidents happen every day, and there are even vicious incidents of street killings.

However, Accardo's diplomatic victory made him once again put on the halo of holiness. Hindenburg's original plan to play 50 major boards was cancelled, and replaced by a unilateral purge of the stormtroopers. The police station dispatched personnel to seal down many branches of the Nazi Party, and confiscated all the Nazi Party flags and armbands. The stormtroopers were told that they were not allowed to wear medals and armbands and were not allowed to parade with flags high, which caused the Nazi Party to lose a lot of time.

However, Hitler did not sit still. Relying on the secret funding of the French, he annexed several small parties without power, secretly developed regular political forces, and prepared to concentrate on winning the upcoming congressional elections.

The diplomatic activities in Saudi Arabia made Arkado a huge profit, and it also filled the stretched Wehrmacht's funds again. In the mountains of Bavaria, the Wehrmacht's armored force was expanded to 900 vehicles, which were enough equipment according to Arkado's vision. Three nearly full tank divisions, and these armored soldiers drilled day and night, making final preparations to crush their opponents.

But on this day, an old acquaintance of Akado came to the headquarters of the National Defense Forces. This person was none other than British Colonel Smith. When Akado heard that it was him, after a little preparation, he asked Smith to come to his own. office.

Accador! My dear friend, thanks to you, I got a medal. As soon as he met Colonel Smith, he showed off the sign on his chest.

Arcador motioned for Anna to pour a cup of coffee for Smith, then said with a smile, Then you should invite me to dinner, Mr. Smith.

Hahahaha! There are too many people who want to invite Akka to dinner. I'm afraid I won't be able to line up! Smith laughed as he glanced at Anna, who was pouring coffee beside him, with raised eyebrows. One pick: You will enjoy it more and more. The secretary is such an amazing beauty.

Don't interrupt, the last time I was desperate to see you, you should have seen Secretary Anna. Akado laughed along with him: What's the matter with me?

To tell you the truth, this time I came to beg you for a friend of the Navy. I heard that you also have connections in the Navy. My friend wants to ask you for a favor. Smith took a sip of coffee and clicked his tongue twice. Next, he sighed: You guys are really good at making coffee, but I still think black tea tastes better.

If you're here for a drink, then I'll serve you red wine, but I'll say it first, I won't talk about business when I drink. Akado pretended to be annoyed and said.

Smith waved his hand and sighed: You really can't make any jokes. I really doubt that you are the German emperor. You can't tolerate others saying that Germany is not good at all.

He didn't wait for Arcardo to speak, and continued: Okay! No kidding! One of our transport ships has disappeared in the North Atlantic. In addition to transporting a large number of arms, this military transport ship also has several of our An important engineer. Our government will do whatever it takes to find this ship.”

When he said a few words at any cost, he intensified his tone, and while speaking, he looked at Akado, hoping to see something on Akado's face.

It's a pity that he didn't see anything. Akado was normally surprised, and then asked, You mean, let us help you find a missing transport ship?

That's right. Smith nodded, he was just ordered to test Arkado's reaction, because the United Kingdom confirmed that the ship had sunk a few days ago, and found some wreckage near the sinking site, but unfortunately no Found alive.

Germany will send 10 destroyers to participate in the search and rescue. Arkado thought for a while and said, But finding a transport ship in a sea as large as the North Atlantic is not an easy task.

Thank you. Smith got up, stretched out his hand gratefully, and held it together with Akado's.

When walking out of the Wehrmacht headquarters, the naval officer brought by Smith frowned and asked, It seems that this Arcardo really doesn't know about our shipwreck.

No! I don't understand this person! Smith waved his hand, swept away the image of the good man in Akado's office, and his eyes became bright. He narrowed his eyes and sighed before saying slowly, It can only be said that we haven't tried out the results! That's all.
