As a dictator and a dictator with a strong domestic opposition, Franco regarded his own life safety as extremely important. Even when he went out, he was surrounded by guards. When giving a speech or having to appear in public, he tried his best to

Who said this was Europe where assassination politics was prevalent? Thinking about the triggers of the last war, it is not difficult to understand why Franco was so cautious.
Jiang Cheng, who was in the most luxurious hotel in Madrid, looked at the photo of Franco in his hand. Jiang Cheng smiled slightly and kept rolling his eyes, thinking about something. Franco in the photo was slightly fat, with eyes full of
He doesn't have Hitler's firm light and looks more like a teacher. Of course, if anyone thinks of him as a teacher, he is not far from death.
Jiang Cheng asked how many powerful forces there are in Spain.
The Falange is now mainly divided into several factions, but each faction is very scattered. The reason for this is actually Franco's intention.
In addition to the Falange Party, there are also remnants of the Red Faction Monarchist Republican Faction, but these people are not united, and Franco continues to suppress and massacre them. I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve anything. Chen Nan replied.
Jiang Cheng hummed, stood up and said that for our benefit, Spain must join the Axis Powers. If something happens to Franco, who will be in power in Spain?
Chen Nan thought for a while and said that Spain was still a kingdom before the Republic. The original King Alfonso XIII died of illness last year. He had a total of four sons, two of whom had died due to accidents, and one had given up his inheritance rights long ago.
So Juan, Count of Barcelona, is the only heir. He is now 29 years old and has a son. His wife is the princess of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Due to his education abroad, Franco believes that he is not suitable to be the king of Spain.
, so although Franco repeatedly said that he would restore the king, he did not take any action. However, due to his words, there were good forces supporting the royal faction in the country.
But the difference between Spain and other European countries is that they do not hate the military's interference in politics. Instead, they feel that it is a good tradition for soldiers to step forward when the country is in danger. Therefore, the ruling party should still be the Falange Party, and the king is probably still a puppet.
, as for whose hands the real power will fall, it’s hard to say. Franco has almost eliminated all the people in the party who could threaten him, and everyone will have a chance.
After listening to this, Jiang Cheng said that your analysis is similar to what I thought. Spain will be in chaos for a while. Neither Germany nor Britain will sit back and watch each other's supporters come to power. No matter how you look at it, Germany's supporters have a greater advantage.
So the problem now is how to make the Spaniards think that the British killed Franco.
Chen Nan rolled his eyes and said, "Master, wouldn't it be great if we used British weapons to assassinate Franco?"
Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, don't treat others as fools. Even if you use weapons, you should use German ones... We have a newspaper in Spain, right?
Chen Nan nodded and said that my boss has a very good memory. We have three newspapers and two magazines, which mainly help us publish our newspapers and magazines, as well as help us with some advertisements. Since we have a German background, the Spanish government is not sorry.
us.
Jiang Cheng hummed and said, let's mobilize public opinion first, mainly to publicize the benefits of fighting against Britain and capturing Gibraltar, and also spend money to organize some people to go to Spanish universities to encourage college students and ask them to write letters requesting to participate in the war.
If we don't join the war now, it will be difficult for Spain to get Gibraltar whether it is a British victory or a German victory. If it wants to be neutral, it should sign an agreement with Britain and Germany and ask for the return of Gibraltar after the war. Remember to keep your hands and feet clean and don't let anyone find out about it.
We are related.
Please rest assured, boss. Chen Nan nodded and said.
Franco has been in a bad mood recently, and the waiters around him have been scolded a lot. I don’t know what happened in the past few days. In schools everywhere, people have been posting big-character posters calling for participation in the war. Although some have been caught
People, but they are just people bribed with money, and the real behind-the-scenes instigators have not been caught at all.
But years of struggle experience told Franco that this matter would not be simple. Maybe it was at home, maybe abroad, but after all there was someone planning something behind the scenes. Yesterday the German ambassador came to him happily and asked if Spain had any intention of participating in the war.
He came up with a new idea and managed to get it over with difficulty. Someone from Britain and the United States came over there and asked if he needed new assistance. This actually allowed him to get another amount of supplies. Thinking of this, Franco was in a good mood again.
stand up.
No one knew the importance of supplies better than Franco. It was because he brought a large amount of supplies from the Afrika Korps and German and Italian aid that he finally won the civil war.
Are there any activities today? Franco asked.
There will be a party meeting today, and there will be a banquet in the evening that requires your attendance, mainly for some domestic literary and artistic figures. The secretary next to him said.
Well, help me make some arrangements. I want to go to the Army Academy in the near future. Franco touched his beard and said.
One thing Franco and Chiang Kai-shek have in common is that they were both principals of military schools before they came to power. Franco knew the importance of the army and military schools. In history, Prince Juan and Franco discussed the story of Juan Carlos I.
When it came to education issues, Franco strongly urged Juan Carlos I to go to the army first and then go to college. Franco was an extremely calm man, which was one of the reasons why he did not let Spain participate in the war in the end.
When the undercurrent surges in the university, his first thought is not to go to the university to appease him, but to go to the military academy. As long as he ensures that the army is in his hands, he is not afraid of anyone. This is indeed the case.
Boss, we have received reliable news that Franco will go to the Army Academy in the near future. Chen Nan said to Jiang Cheng who was reading a book.
The fact that Franco went to the military academy cannot stop interested people from investigating. For example, recently, the military academy no longer allows people to take leave to go home.
Oh, have we found our people yet? Jiang Cheng asked.
Chen Nan said with a smile that we had found three good chess pieces. According to the owner's request, we asked Cynthia to contact them. Cynthia has a British background and I believe it will give all parties a good association.
When night comes, it seems that most of the conspiracies are related to the night. It seems that the night can make people feel safe to do things that they dare not do or even think about during the day. In a room, three young people looked at the photos on the table.
The lips were tightly closed and the teeth were clenched. The photo on the table was of a man in military uniform waving. The three people's trembling hands from time to time could tell how nervous they were.
Well, you decide for yourself. After all, this is a matter of no return. We have only one request. If you refuse, for the future peace of the world and the freedom of Spain, I hope you can keep today’s affairs a secret. A dress
said the gorgeous white woman.
The three of them took a few deep breaths, and one of them asked, "I want to know why you chose us, and who are you?"
The woman took a sip of coffee and said, "Isn't it important who we are? The key is not that we can help you achieve your wishes. As for why I chose you, it's because you all have loved ones and relatives who died in Franco's hands, right? Or maybe?"
Wife, or parents, and do you really have a favorable impression of Franco's Spain? I don't need to say how many Spanish compatriots died at the hands of this executioner. As long as Franco is dead, then all Spain will hate dictatorship.
People can stand up, and with our strength, the end of the Spanish Falangists is just around the corner, and the dawn of freedom will shine on all the Spanish people.
Saying great things and doing mean things often leads to no harm.
The three of them looked at each other for a few times and finally nodded. One of the little men still said unwillingly, please tell us what kind of power you have, otherwise we can't believe you.
The white woman took out the lighter, lit a cigarette for herself, and took a puff. Her charm in the smoke became even more powerful, which made the hearts of the three boys jump. The woman put the lighter back, floating lightly in the smoke.
He said to the three of them, "I'm from Gibraltar, but what I want you to remember is that if you fail, remember that I'm from Berlin."
The three of them were stunned for a moment. One of them wanted to ask again, but was stopped by the little man. The little man said with bright eyes: "We understand that we have always been dissatisfied with Spain for not joining the Axis powers. We will definitely fight for the Axis powers."
The heart of the country and the head of state shed the last drop of blood
The woman nodded with satisfaction, took out a small box and said there are thirty pounds of gold here, ten pounds for each of the three of you. Remember not to tell your family directly. It is best to divide the gold storage address into two parts, and hide one part in
At home, some suicide notes should be written by trusted people and sent to your family after your accident. This is also for the sake of your family.
The three of them were touched when they saw that the other party had considered themselves to this extent. The ancients said that a scholar would die for his confidant. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is difficult for ordinary people to be taken seriously. When you meet someone who trusts you and values you, you will naturally
It is easy to feel that only the other person will be so kind to you in this life, and the three of them had this mentality at this time. After taking the gold, the three cheered each other up and started to prepare.
After the three of them left, the beautiful woman turned around and entered the room next door. She said to Chen Nan who was sitting and drinking tea. "It's over. You are so bad and false. I'm afraid you won't even guess if I beat the three of them to death."
It turns out that you are neither on the other side.
Chen Nan laughed and said that this was all due to the wisdom of his employer, and he would continue to follow the plan. I believe this show will be exciting.
On this day, Franco felt something was wrong when he got up. He always felt that his neck was a little stiff, as if it didn't belong to him. Damn it, are you stiff? Franco thought about his plan to go to a military academy today.
Such a rigid self will affect your own image.
Come on, find a masseur. My neck is a little sore. Franco said to the secretary outside.
Mr. Head of State, what's wrong? Why don't we cancel today's plans? The secretary gave an idea.
No, it has been arranged over there and cannot be cancelled. Otherwise, others will think that something happened to me, and at the military school there might be some kid who thinks that I don’t pay enough attention to them. Franco said in denial.
The masseur came to massage for a while, and Franco felt a little relieved. After breakfast, he drove to the military school in a car under the protection of the guards. The guards stood on both sides of the car, ready to use their lives at any time.
to protect their leader.
If you watch the "Shanghai Tang" TV series, you will know that cars in that era often had a protrusion on the side of the car door. This was for thugs or bodyguards to stand, so that long-distance shootings would be borne by these human shields first.
.
Franco was extremely concerned about his own safety.
The convoy gradually came to the street. Although Spain is not a powerful country in Europe, there are still many cars. Although there are guards to open the way, the speed still slows down helplessly.
Are you aiming? This is our only chance. In a hotel room in the distance, a little man said to the person next to him.
Don't worry, you've forgotten that I've fought tanks before, let me count... 321 fires
A German-made Pak38 50mm anti-tank gun roared loudly. The two men immediately loaded their guns again without looking at the result. They knew that they were more than 800 meters away from the convoy, and would anyone be looking for them soon?
They still have a chance when they come to the door, and there are four or five identical cars in the convoy. They don't know which one they should hit, or whether they have hit it.
The huge bombardment shook the whole building. Everyone looked upstairs, wondering what happened. But on the street a street away from the hotel, it seemed as if the world was turned upside down. First, the third person in the moving convoy was
There was a sudden explosion between the car and the fourth car. The huge explosion shock wave sent the car flying three to four meters away, and the bodyguard in the car was naturally dead.
Then there were explosions every five or six seconds. The bulletproof car imported from Germany was like a toy in the explosion, and the great Spanish head of state had no idea whether he was dead or alive.
That's where there was shelling. After more than ten seconds, someone finally discovered the source of the shelling. It was a hotel. The guards quickly took out their weapons and shot at the place where the shelling was fired. The captain of the guard saw through the telescope, that
The window was actually blocked with wooden boards, and the distance was 800 meters. No one would have thought that someone would assassinate someone from so far away. After all, it is an impossible task to hit the target with a rifle from 800 meters away.
But there was no problem with the anti-tank gun. So the question is, who actually transported the anti-tank gun into Madrid and even transported it to the hotel. The dark shadow behind this incident is scary to think about.
Perhaps Franco was really lucky. He was actually pulled out by the guards from the destroyed vehicle. With blood all over his face, he uttered two words with difficulty and walked away and then fainted. When he saw that the head of state was not dead, he shouted loudly.
Feeling that the head of state was indeed auspicious, he quickly covered Franco's escape. To be continued...
