    In the Prime Minister's Residence in Rome, the capital of Italy, Mussolini went berserk. On his desk was a telegram from the distant Pacific. The officers of the Italian Expeditionary Fleet were still very dedicated and hung up the white flag to surrender.  After that, he immediately sent back to China the truth about what happened to the expedition fleet in the waters of the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific.

    Therefore, after reading the telegram, the always conceited Prime Minister Mussolini went berserk. His fat body moved back and forth hurriedly in the office covered with precious Persian carpets, and he cursed the Chinese loudly, especially that  Tang Qiuli, who didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and more than a dozen Italian party, government and military leaders looked at the prime minister with fearful expressions and as furious as a fat lion.

    After cursing for more than ten minutes, Mussolini stopped, lit a cigar, and took a long puff. The light blue smoke blurred his plump red face, and he turned towards the party, government, and military leaders standing aside.  The members roared: "I, as Prime Minister, order you to start immediately. The battle plan for the expedition to mainland China in Asia must use all the forces of the army, navy and air force!"

    "I want those ignorant Chinese to know what disastrous consequences Italy's anger will have, and I want that arrogant Tang Qiuli to know that if I destroy one of my fleets, I will destroy the entire China! Zhan  The invincible Italian army must appear on Chinese soil in two months!"

    "Also, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the General Staff, immediately contact the Japanese and inform their Emperor Hirohito of my thoughts. Italy is willing to form the latest bilateral military alliance with Japan to jointly deal with our enemy-the abominable China.  people!"

    Mussolini¡¯s roar.  Echoing in the spacious office, those Italian party, government and military bosses.  They looked at each other, no one dared to start a fight.  Originally, many of them were concerned that the Prime Minister, regardless of the international situation and seeking the interests of the Japanese, would send some kind of expeditionary fleet to the Asia-Pacific region to serve as thugs for the Japanese and fight against the Chinese, who had never had any friendship or grievances with them.  .

    ¡°However, the Prime Minister at the time, His Excellency.  He was in a good mood and had great ambitions to open up overseas colonies in Asia and the Pacific. He couldn't listen to anyone's words. However, now the Prime Minister was so angry that he wanted to use all the strength of the country to travel thousands of miles to Asia.  , to fight a national war with the Chinese.  This is no small matter, it is related to the rise and fall of the Kingdom of Italy, but the Prime Minister cannot be allowed to do whatever he wants!

    The top boss of the Italian military, General Mario, Minister of Defense and Chief of Army General Staff.  I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I am very dissatisfied with Mussolini's words.  Are you just kidding about sending troops to attack China, which is thousands of miles away?

    How far is it between Italy and China?  The Prime Minister doesn't know?  How big is China and how big is Italy?  Is the Japanese army inferior to the Italian army in terms of combat effectiveness?  These.  Don't you, the Prime Minister, know?

    The big bosses of the party, government and military kept their own thoughts, but none of them responded to Mussolini's words. The atmosphere in the office was dull.  Depressing and embarrassing.

    Seeing that his subordinates did not respond to his call, Mussolini felt even more shameless. He suddenly became furious and shouted: "What? No one carries out my order? In this case, I don't mind replacing the Italian army, navy and air force with a new one."  Appoint generals who can resolutely carry out the Prime Minister¡¯s orders!¡±

    For Mussolini's words, the expressions of the party, government and military leaders suddenly became colorful. General Mario had to express his position, "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, please calm down. The Chinese people don't know how high the sky is.  He actually took the initiative to attack our Italian fleet. We must resolutely fight back against this deliberate provocation and contempt for Italy!¡±

    "However, Your Excellency, Prime Minister, sending troops to Asia to fight in China is a huge undertaking. It requires careful planning and is not something that can be completed in a short time. For my personal opinion, would you like to consult our  Allies, German opinion.¡±

    "After all, a war with China will require the help of the Germans on many matters. Moreover, it is said that China's actual leader Tang Qiuli has a very close personal relationship with the German head of state Hitler. Even if we decide to send troops to China, we cannot  Don¡¯t worry about the German attitude!¡±

    Mario's words definitely had a miraculous effect. Just like a bucket of cold water, Mussolini immediately calmed down. Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. The current Pacific region is almost like the Borderlands. So,  Why don't the Germans reach out? There are more than six million German troops on the North American continent. It is much more convenient than Italy to reap the benefits of the Pacific region.

    Others may not understand the German head of state Hitler, but he knows very well that he is greedy for territory. He is a pathological guy and has strong strength. Even Hitler does not extend his claws to the Pacific region. What is he worried about?There must be something wrong here. Almost in an instant, Mussolini regained the shrewdness of a politician. He immediately put on a smile and said with a smile: "Just now, my emotions were a little out of control. Okay, let's break up the meeting."  Well, as for whether to attack the Chinese, wait for my next order!"

    After the party, government and military officials left, Mussolini dictated to his cronies' secretaries that he sent a private telegram to the German head of state, Hitler. The core content of the telegram was about his intention to send troops to mainland China to teach him a lesson.  The Chinese, who did not know the heights of heaven and earth, sought Hitler's opinion on this matter.

    Hitler was playing with Mussolini¡¯s telegram in his hand, with a scornful sneer on his lips and his mustache trembling constantly. All the German party, government and military officials stared intently at the expressive face of His Excellency the F¨¹hrer.

    Hitler knew Mussolini's pig-like teammate very well. He could even tell that his old Chinese friend Tang Qiuli, who had a strong and tough personality, must have swallowed the Italian fleet in a big way.  Without even blinking, it turned out to be true. Mussolini gave Tang Qiuli more than 30 warships for nothing.

    Now, Mussolini actually wanted to send troops to China. Regarding this, Hitler could only describe his mood as speechless. He really couldn't figure out whether the leader of the Italian Nazi Party and the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy had anything in his mind.  Even an idiot would not come up with such an idea that is not only ridiculous but also very dangerous?

    Hitler still planned to send a telegram back to Mussolini. After all, he was his old friend, "Your Excellency Prime Minister, Germany cannot interfere in your country's sovereign actions. As for choosing who to go to war with, it is the freedom of old friends, but I still want to  A sincere reminder to my old friend, once you leave the war with my old Chinese friend Tang Qiu, Italy will not only gain nothing, but also anger a strong and fierce tiger!"

    Hitler really didn't want to talk too much with Mussolini. He was worried that his pig-like teammate would affect Germany's ongoing North American war if he clashed with the Chinese. Otherwise, he would be happy to see the Italians  Go to war with the Chinese.

    Then, Hitler said with emotion to the party, government and military bosses around him: "Now you all know, my old friend Tang Qiuli is such a person. I absolutely believe that if he was killed in the South Pacific waters,  The fleet belongs to Germany. If Germany cannot give him a satisfactory explanation, he will not hesitate to order his fleet to do the same thing! "

    Holding Hitler's telegram, Mussolini was stunned. He understood the meaning of the telegram. After a long time, he sighed, with a very lonely and unwilling expression. He never mentioned the expedition to this continent again. The Italian Party  The political and military bosses were also happy that a war between the two countries that was about to happen just disappeared.

    One day later, Tang Qiuli received a telegram from Germany, which was sent by Hitler himself. In the telegram, Hitler not only told Tang Qiuli in detail about Italian Prime Minister Mussolini's idea of ??sending troops to mainland China, but also vaguely  He hinted that he had already advised Mussolini, and it was very likely that the Italians had died down.

    After reading the telegram, Tang Qiuli couldn't help but sneered, and immediately called Hitler back. Of course, polite words were indispensable, and he had to thank Hitler for his help. But at the end of the telegram, there were these few words, "The Chinese have never been  Will succumb to foreign pressure, and as for Qiu Li himself, he will not accept any external threats and war blackmails, regardless of which country, person or force it is!"

    "Qiu Li has fought with the Japanese, fought with the British, and fought with the Soviets. Now, he is still fighting the Japanese. He doesn't care about one more Italian. Please tell Mussolini that he will let him go if he dares.  Come here!"

    Tang Qiuli¡¯s reply was absolutely domineering. There was no need for any tactful diplomatic rhetoric, diplomatic protests, or warnings. As long as Mussolini dared to come forward, he would see the real seal on his fist.

    Tang Qiuli was a man of two generations and had unparalleled experience. How could he not see the meaning of Hitler's telegram, which was vaguely threatening and warning. It meant that Italy was now completely under its own constraints, and Hitler could decide for himself.  Where does the Italian fist hit?

    After replying to Hitler's telegram, Tang Qiuli quickly forgot about the matter. As for Mussolini's reaction, it was none of his business. However, he felt sorry for the more than thirty prisoners.  I was very considerate of the Italian warship and sent a telegram to Tang Qiuquan, telling him to treat the captured Italian officers and soldiers well. They are all ready-made talents. After applying kindness and power, they can be used by me. The notification is that the fleet  more necessary.

    Tang Qiuli¡¯s main energy now is devoted to the aftermath of the Australian war.?, there is another decisive event that is also imminent, and that is the issue of the combat strategy for attacking Japan's mainland.
