"Ha!" Colonel Dennis smiled and said, "Lieutenant, if you think this will make me give up, then you are wrong!"

"Oh, is that?" Qin Chuan asked back: "Then colonel, I know that you were originally affiliated with the 13th Infantry Division of Greece. After retreating from Greek mainland to Crete, why did you not join the Greek government army and join the National Liberation Front instead?"

Upon hearing this, Colonel Dennis was stunned. Qin Chuan was asking about it.

At this time, Greece was still a monarchy, and another meaning of the monarchy was hereditary and dictatorial. Greece was a veritable dictatorship: they disbanded the parliament, arrested the workers' leaders, declared the strike as illegal, and freedom of speech was suppressed; left-wing politicians were either exiled or imprisoned; a strict censorship system was established, and even the works of Plato, Thucydides and Xenophon were listed as banned books. Workers held strikes and marchs were all suppressed by ruthless force.

These were originally tolerated. Colonel Denis, as a member of the government army, thought it was understandable for establishing a regime. However, when he saw that the royal family, which was originally a mighty man on the Greek people, was resisting Germany, and the Italian army fled in panic with the help of the British at a critical moment, Colonel Denis was completely disappointed.

Colonel Denis did not think that he could place his fate in Greece on such royal family and government forces, so he resolutely joined the National Liberation Front when he fled to Crete.

"This is not the reason I would choose to surrender!" Colonel Dennis's face turned ugly.

"Of course!" Qin Chuan said: "Then I can ask why your equipment is so bad?"

As he said that, Qin Chuan glanced at the Greek militia who were waiting for the other side. At this moment, their equipment was better because of the "sponsorship" of the British, but there were still people holding spears or grenades in their hands.

Colonel Dennis couldn't help but gritted his teeth. Qin Chuan was right. The British were always unwilling to provide equipment for militias, even though there were a lot of extra equipment in the warehouse.

"It has nothing to do with you, isn't it?" Colonel Dennis replied.

"No, it has something to do with us!" Qin Chuan replied: "Because if your equipment is better, I mean, as long as each of you has a rifle in your hand... you are afraid that you will have wiped out us in that high ground at Irak Airport!"

Colonel Dennis's eyes at this time can be described as the word "sad and angry".

Because Qin Chuan was right, the main reason why the militia failed in the battle in the Highlands was that it lacked firepower. Colonel Dennis, who had fought, knew this very well.

"So!" Qin Chuan said: "Let's go back to the original question... Let's look farther, what will happen if things continue to develop like this. You may win, because I saw the courage and spirit of the Greeks, but what can you get if you win? The king returns to Greece and re-placed on the throne, and then starts to suppress the National Liberation Front with the support of the British. Then... Colonel Dennis, who do you think will win in the end? Are you still the royal family supported by the British?"

As he said that, Qin Chuan handed a cigarette to Dennis who was already anxious and lit it for him.

These are not Qinchuan’s non-tributive words, but what really happened in history... The Greek National Liberation Front continued to fight against Germany and Italy at home, and finally liberated Greece, but the British army landed in Greece under the banner of “fighting against Germany and liberating Greece”, and then the civil war broke out before the end of World War II.

Needless to say, the National Liberation Front is no match for the British-supported government forces.

This is also the hypocritical side of Western countries. They will not not support Greece because it is a dictatorial state. They will only take them out and use them when they need them, otherwise they will pretend to be invisible.

"Or..." Qin Chuan asked: "You might think the British would turn to support you?"

"No!" Colonel Dennis shook his head and replied, "Our king is the great-grandson of Queen Victoria of England!"

"Hmm!" Qin Chuan nodded.

He actually knew this, which was one of the reasons why Britain spared no effort to support Greece.

"Col. Dennis!" Qin Chuan said: "I am blunt, your spirit is very respectable, but if this continues, there is only a dead end!"

"We don't seem to have any other choice!" Colonel Dennis looked up at Qin Chuan.

"No, you have a choice!" Qin Chuan said: "You can choose to cooperate with us!"

"Cooperate?" Colonel Dennis asked, "But what is the benefit of this for you?"

"The enemy's enemy is friends!" Qin Chuan replied: "It's just that you didn't see clearly, just like I said... We are not enemies, Germany has no interest in Greece, the Italians occupy your land, and now they still occupy most of Greece's territory. Germany's enemy is the British, and the British are also your potential enemies!"

"How do you want us to work together?" Colonel Dennis asked.

"Surrender!" Qin Chuan said: "First of all, you have to survive, otherwise there will be no cooperation!"

"Why should I trust you?" Colonel Dennis asked.

Qin Chuan looked at the German army behind him and replied: "By theirs!"

Colonel Dennis was stunned for a moment, and then soon realized that Qin Chuan had no need to lie to him, because only Qin Chuan had to nod, everyone, including Colonel Dennis, would immediately turn into a pile of corpses.

So Qin Chuan returned to the camp without any bloodshed. In addition to more than 200 rifles and several tons of explosives, the seized materials also included several 80MM caliber mortars and a batch of shells... When Qin Chuan saw this thing, he couldn't help but say "Good guy" that if this thing is used to attack an arsenal, fighting randomly across a mountain may cause a chain of explosions.

When Qin Chuan walked into the command center to report to Rommel, Rommel asked unexpectedly: "Lieutenant, you did a good job, but... why are you a prisoner rather than a corpse?"

"General!" Qin Chuan replied: "They are militias, militias from the people. If we kill one group, another will appear, unless we kill all the Greeks on Crete!"

Rommel nodded when he heard this.

"So!" Qin Chuan said: "I think what is more useful to militia is control rather than massacre. If we can control them within a certain range or establish a certain degree of cooperation, we will have less trouble!"

"Cooperation?" Rommel was a little puzzled. He didn't know what it was good to cooperate with the National Liberation Front.
