, like many American workers, was initially very resistant to the German army’s method of distributing relief food.
However, without a job, there is no income, and his family’s life needs expenses, which caused him to be under increasing pressure. After hearing that Kodak, his former employer, had resumed work and production, Miller could no longer remain calm!
“Since the factory has resumed work, it means that some people have returned to the factory!”
Miller felt very anxious and angry.
In his opinion, the German army had such excessive demands. As an Eagle Sauce person, everyone should resist collectively and force the German army to change its policy.
In fact, some local organizations and individuals loyal to the Eagle Sauce did connect privately, trying to unite everyone to fight against the tyranny of the German army.
Unexpectedly, a traitor appeared among them and betrayed everyone! However, after getting angry and taking a look at his wife and children who were crying for food at home, Miller’s anger completely disappeared and was replaced by deep fear!
He was worried that he would lose his job!
During the economic crisis, Kodak had already carried out several rounds of layoffs. In the past few years, many people have lost their jobs one after another. The rest of them are cautious for fear that they will lose their jobs. He was fired too!
The horrific scene of losing a job and living on the streets was almost everywhere in the United States during the Great Depression!
The fear that this situation brought to the people of the United States cannot be described in words!
Therefore, many workers, including Miller, cherish their jobs very much and do not want to lose their jobs and become street vagrants!
While he was still at home insisting on not accepting relief food from the German army and not revealing his personal and family details, the factory suddenly started working. What does this mean? It means that the factory has recruited workers, otherwise they would not be able to start work!
When Miller thought of this, he was completely panicked. He was worried that the factory would recruit a large number of workers in a short period of time, so that his original job would be taken away by others. Once this happened, then… It means that he will be completely unemployed!
When Miller thought of the terrible consequences of unemployment, he was completely upset. At this time, personal privacy and freedom to bear arms are not as important as keeping his job!
So, the next day after hearing that the factory resumed work, Miller took the initiative to go to the work point set up by the German army to ascend the throne, and after the ascension and obtaining the employment permit, he immediately returned to his factory with the permit!
Facts have proved that Miller’s worries are not unreasonable.
When he returned to the factory, he found that the factory had begun to resume work on a large scale, and at least 70% of the workers in the factory had returned. If he was late, his job would definitely be taken away!
Thinking of this result, Miller was scared and broke out in a cold sweat. He was lucky that he reacted quickly. If he continued to listen to those militants, he would be stupid. If you wait at home, then this is really over!
There are still many people like Miller!
After confiscating a large number of weapons in the occupied areas, the situation in the occupied areas began to stabilize. Although there are still some militants hiding in the dark, their number is too small to change the overall situation.
Therefore, with security guarantees, a large number of factories began to resume work and production in an orderly manner!
The resumption of work in the factory requires a large number of workers. In this case, if the Eagle Sauce people really do not ascend the throne and resume work as agreed in advance, and carry out non-violent and non-cooperative protests, it will indeed have some impact on the German army’s action plan.
However, the German army can rely on more than these Eagle Sauce people. In the Florida area where the German army first controlled, there were more than 10 million German immigrants who fled persecution and war from the north!
After these German immigrants entered Florida, most of them lost their jobs. At this time, the factories in the occupied areas began to resume work, and the German army naturally gave priority to them.
Therefore, when the German army resumed work and production, it had at least more than 5 million high-quality laborers as a guarantee. They didn’t care whether the local Eagle Sauce people were willing to come out to work.
With these five million people as a base, the German army can at least keep 50% of the factories running. Some key factories, such as arsenals, cement plants, and steel mills, which are the manufacturers of materials that the German army urgently needs, can even resume production at full capacity.
And there is another key point. The German army has resumed production. The local Eagle Sauce people don’t know who is working in the factory. They only see that the factory has resumed operation, so they naturally think that someone has become a traitor.
Someone has become a traitor, just like a window that has been smashed with a stone. At this time, continuing to maintain unity and resist is a joke!
In this case, unless the Eagle Sauce people have endless food and endless money at home, they don’t worry about their jobs at all, and are willing to give everything for their country, otherwise, in the face of practical interests, they will definitely rush into the factory to speed up the restoration and reconstruction of major factories!
The implementation is indeed so. In less than a week, most of the Eagle Sauce people honestly registered their identity information and went back to the factory to work obediently.
In this way, the identification work, which was originally a huge workload for the German army, suddenly became simple!
Those who are willing to register are not necessarily all good people, but those who are unwilling to register are definitely not good things!
So what the German army has to do is to immediately strike those guys who are still resisting!
Eisenhower did not hesitate at all. With the cooperation of the SS, the German army accurately struck and arrested this part of the people.
In order to ensure the concealment and suddenness of the action, the German army dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops and divided them into a large number of arrest teams. At the same time, they launched an arrest operation and successfully captured a large number of militants hidden in the civilian population. A large number of weapons and ammunition and some communication equipment, such as radio stations, telephones and even some pigeons, were found from their residences.
This operation was very successful. A total of more than 265,000 people were arrested. After interrogation, it was confirmed that at least 120,000 of them were defeated in the US military and hidden in the civilian population. More than 5,000 people were agents specially sent by the White House to sabotage.
In addition, there are more than 100,000 people who are not very smart, still believe that the US military will fight back, or still have illusions about the American government and are extremely hostile to the Third Reich.
The German army was not polite to these guys at all, and sent them all to the uninhabited mining areas in the west to mine!
Although the gold rush in the West has been over for a long time, there are still many gold mines that have not been mined in some areas of the Rocky Mountains with harsh climatic conditions.
If normal means were used to recruit workers for mining, the cost would be very high, but using these militants and diehards, the cost would be very low!
Sending them to mine not only solves their threats, but also brings profits, killing two birds with one stone!
