Even though everyone knew that Emanuele III would definitely find a way to clear his suspicions, the other party directly chose the most cunning trick.
Not only did he use Ciano to assassinate Mussolini, but he also made Ciano bear all the responsibility and became the scapegoat afterwards.
While getting rid of Mussolini, he also killed two birds with one stone and eliminated the Ciano Group. Before eliminating the Ciano Group, he also made the Ciano Group bear the responsibility for assassinating Mussolini.
Now he no longer needs to explain anything. For the people, finding the murderer is enough to eliminate the suspicion of the king, who was originally the most suspected beneficiary.
While crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, you can kill two birds with one stone. Emanuele III is really very good at playing.
As for the Ciano force, because they were too active in revealing too many details when they sought cooperation with the king, they all handed over all their information to the king.
Ciano thought that he was the wolf that the king needed most and could help him eliminate Mussolini, the big tiger. Unfortunately, he was just a dog in the eyes of Emanuele III.
The useless Ciano was put on the chopping block by Emanuele III in a blink of an eye.
As a result, the status quo of factions in Italy suddenly became much clearer.
During Mussolini's time, there was one super power and many powers, and in an instant, only Rossi and the king's forces were left to oppose each other.
"The only ones we need to deal with now are Emanuele III and his General Staff." Jonas handed a document to Rossi: "The royal family has begun to vigorously eliminate Ciano.
The remaining people from the faction. In addition, we have also received temptations from the royal family."
Looking through the documents and records, Rossi clearly discovered that King Emanuele III had asked the General Staff to send many people to contact him, hoping to get his statement.
Support! Or oppose?
Rossi turned around and closed the documents and records and pushed them to the corner of the table: "It seems that if we don't immediately express our support for the king, it will be our turn after the generals of the General Staff have cleaned up the remnants of the Ciano faction.
."
"We don't have much time." Jonas also nodded in agreement: "Many of Ciano's former cronies have defected and expressed their willingness to serve the royal family to lead the country again. Wait until Oliver and Matthew take the lead.
Switch sides. From what I understand, they will definitely do the same. Even if Ciano is released now, he will have no manpower at his disposal."
With one arrest, all of Ciano's wings were removed, and a large amount of power was instantly recovered. King Emanuele III showed his control in front of all Italians!
"Do you think we should support His Majesty the King?" Rossi joked knowingly.
"Of course not!" Jonas exclaimed, pretending to be surprised: "In that case, wouldn't all our previous efforts have been in vain?"
Rossi was also very satisfied and repeated: "What I'm saying is that we have done so much, and at this point, of course we have to refuse His Majesty the King's request."
"Besides," Rossi's face turned gloomy and he said in a deep voice, "I hate this practice of throwing people away after using them. He reminds me of what Mussolini did to me back then."
Indeed, what King Emanuele III did to Ciano today is almost exactly the same as what Mussolini did to Rossi when he crossed the river and demolished the bridge. And this time, Ciano was essentially doing it for the benefit of the king.
He took the initiative to ask for help, but in the end he became a scapegoat.
King Emanuele III's actions were even more ruthless than Mussolini's at the time.
Every Gestapo present could read an emotion in Rossi's eyes - disgust, extreme disgust, disgust to anger!
Standing up from his desk, Rossi patted the corners of his clothes symbolically, as easily as he was wiping away the dust on his clothes.
"Let's go, let us follow the king's actions and clean up the last dust for Italy. Our country should have long ago swept away the king and the royal family like the German Third Reich and let the leaders elected by the people and the country lead.
." Rossi said with a relaxed smile.
There are always some smart idiots in this world.
Some people think they have seized the opportunity, but they do not know that they have bitten the bait thrown by others.
Some people think that by using fishing bait, they are using others as pawns, but little do they know that they themselves have also become pawns of others.
No one can control everything as they wish, unless that person is called Reinhardt!
Judging from Rossi's experience over the years, he has only repeatedly proved one thing through personal experience - no matter how the various factions in Italy fought, they were actually calculated to death by the German head of state from the beginning.
ending.
Only Reinhard was the ultimate shepherd who truly predicted everything, understood everything, and controlled everything through Rossi.
Whether it was Mussolini, Rossi, or even the whole of Italy, in fact, for Reinhardt, they were just sheep in a pen that were unanimously controlled and controlled!
In particular, recently, countless Italian politicians and military officers who were watching the excitement stood up and spoke without pain, criticizing and commenting on the German head of state's poor decision-making, which led to the Soviet Union's sneak attack on his back and so on.
Rossi basically didn't bother to pay attention to these fools who were talking on paper.
Many people ridiculed the German generals for their short-sightedness. They did not know to first capture the Soviet Union, which was easy to defeat and bordered Germany, and then turn around and concentrate on taking care of Britain.
Some politicians even predicted that after the German army captured the Soviet Union, they would not even have to land in Britain, and the British government would surrender.
In short, the opinions of the officials were the same, and they all decided that the German army should fight the Soviet army head-on instead of crossing the English Channel and landing on the British Isles.
As long as Rossi's group is the most sensible, they remain silent. Although he doesn't know why Reinhardt didn't order war with the Soviet Union first, Rossi believes that if Reinhardt doesn't do something, there must be something wrong.
Absolutely no reason to do it!
And what Reinhard did... was simply a stroke of genius!
Rossi didn't know it from far away, but in Italy, Rossi knew that he was now willing to be a pawn of the Germans, and as the seeds that Reinhard planted more than ten years ago, took root, sprouted, and then controlled the entire Italy!
After this round of power transfer, Italy in the future will be completely tied to Germany. Under the simultaneous control of Reinhardt, the only co-leader, Germany and Italy will soon become as close as one country.
