Token of the Head of State

"It's not that our king has given a death order. I must eat your 128th Division, saying that this will allow Britain, France and other countries to regain their hope of defeating you in Norway, so that more troops will be sent to support Norway!" Anthony was angry. Said, "Originally, I planned to go home after packing up the heavy equipment you discarded."

"Of course, in addition to the king's death order, I also have responsibilities. I mistakenly thought that you had no troops to support the 'rout' 128th Division, so I followed the king's order with a fluke." Anthony said slightly frustrated, "I I really didn't expect that you would drop the combat troops from the southern front directly across Norway to the northern front, otherwise I would not pursue your 128th Division even if I was disobedient."

"I see." Manstein nodded suddenly and said.

"By the way, General Anthony, after this battle, if you were asked to evaluate our troops, what would you say?" Manstein asked with interest.

Because the opponent's opinion is always the most pertinent.

Anthony thought for a while after hearing the words, and then replied seriously: "Your fighting method is very strange, completely breaking the single-armed combat in previous wars, but combining multiple arms to fight. But it stands to reason. It is said that coordinated operations among multiple arms are generally impossible to succeed, because each arm has its own officers, its own traditions, and its own combat principles, and this will lead to the emergence of coordinated actions among the various arms. All kinds of faults. But this problem does not appear at all with you, the combination of land, sea and air is so perfect, as if they are one in themselves!"

"Perhaps I can sum up your fighting style in three words." Anthony looked directly at Manstein and said slowly, "That is, 'three-dimensional'!"

"That's right! Three-dimensional warfare!" Manstein applauded happily, "Our head of state created this method of warfare, and he also used the three words 'three-dimensional'!"

"This, this theory was actually created by your Führer?" Anthony was surprised by Manstein's words for you. He never thought that such a powerful and advanced combat theory was created by a politician.

"Yes!" Manstein said with admiration on his face, "The Führer is our most powerful master of strategy and tactics. I'm really not worth mentioning in front of him!"

"I really want to meet your head of state right now, to see what kind of person he is, not only can he bring your country back to the top in just 20 years, but also create such an advanced Combat theory!" Anthony said with a face full of fascination.

Because of Germany's advanced strategic and tactical concepts, coupled with seeing through the stupidity of Norway's top management, Anthony's hatred for Germany dropped a lot. See the impulse above.

Maybe this is the sympathy between the masters.

Of course, Leon is not really a master. The reason why he came up with various combat concepts that made countless famous generals bow down is entirely because he bought a lot of military magazines on the street stalls in his previous life and watched the video of a certain bureau.

And the reason why Leon can manage the empire so well is because he has read a lot about the subject of the Third Reich and is proficient in how to govern the Third Reich.

But people in Germany didn't know this, so Lyon was the "chosen son" in their hearts, who was specially sent by God to save Germany.

"You want to meet the Führer? Of course you can." Manstein said excitedly after hearing the words, "To be honest, I came to visit you this time just to invite you to join us."

"Jia, join you?" Anthony said in surprise.

"Yes, join us." Manstein said sincerely, "With all due respect, although your country's current troops still have the strength to fight, but with your high-level commanding ability, it can be said that the overall situation of the Norwegian war has been decided. Judging from the current speed of our troops, it will only take a week for your country to defeat at most, and you must know this very well."

Anthony was silent for a while after hearing the words, then sighed and nodded in frustration: "Yes, our troops on the northern front have been exhausted, and it is impossible for the remaining remnants to block your Twelfth Army from north to south. Offensive. And your Sixth Army has already landed on the front line from Kristiansand to Larvik, and with our divisions on the southern front, we can't even fight back."

"You can't be like this on the southern front, aren't the Polish Allies helping on the southern front?" Manstein asked with a smile.

"Polish allies? Just a bunch of defeated soldiers, they all fled in panic on their own soil, let alone ours? Well, I guess your POW camps will soon have 50,000 more polands. Come on!" Anthony said, "Actually, the most terrible thing is not the military issue, but the growing number ofThe Quislingers, they are the root cause of this country's loss of hope. "

"This country is completely doomed!" At the end, Anthony let out a long sigh.

"Yeah, this country has been corrupted, so I invite you to join us and rebuild a new Norway with us." Manstein persuaded, "Join us and you can learn the most advanced With strategic and tactical concepts, you can command the strongest army in the world!"

Anthony listened to Manstein's words, and a hint of emotion appeared on his face. It would be a lie to say that the advanced tactical combat concepts and powerful army of the German army could not attract him. The strongest army in the world is the most wonderful thing.

But Anthony still shook his head and refused: "No, we are opponents. If I join you and help you fight against my motherland, what is the difference between me and those Quislingers?"

"Aren't you thinking about it anymore?" Manstein still didn't give up.

"No!" Anthony said firmly, "General Manstein, you are a wonderful person, and it is my honor to be friends with you, but I am a Norwegian, no matter how bad my country is, I still can't change my nationality, so I'm sorry."

"That's such a pity," Manstein said regretfully.

"I'm really happy to be friends with you, General. I hope my decision will not affect our friendship." Anthony looked at Manstein and said.

"Of course not." Manstein smiled, then took out a business card-like thing from his pocket and handed it to Anthony, "This is the Führer's token, with the Führer's phone number on it, with it you can You can travel unimpeded in Germany and all of Germany's allies, something that few people even in Germany have."

After listening to Manstein's words, Anthony returned the things to Manstein in panic, and said, "This is what your head of state gave you, right? How can you give it to me? You should hurry up and put away such a valuable thing. ."
