He ruthlessly crushed the Montenegro Uprising of 1941. In 1942 he ordered 50 hostages shot for every Italian soldier killed and 10 hostages shot for every Italian soldier wounded. He also said to his soldiers : "''I have heard that you are good family fathers. That is good at home, but not here. Here, you can't steal, murder and rape enough.''"
