The Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of the main entrance of the hotel where Xu Jun was staying, and Disenhofen got out and opened the door for Xu Jun. Please search () to see the most complete! The fastest newest novel [,
The Star Hotel is located in the northwest of Kiel Harbour. It was originally a European-style manor built in the 17th century. The main building is a French Baroque-style four-story palace. There is a vast garden in front of the door with carefully trimmed shrubs and flowerbeds. With symmetrical geometric figures, a concrete road runs through the entire central axis, with a rectangular pool and a sculptural fountain in the style of Louis XIV. A tall iron fence encloses the entire area, and the black-painted iron railing also has a sharp hooked iron tip.
Xu Jun stepped out of the car, took a deep breath of the air with the fragrance of plants and trees, then turned around and watched the surrounding scenery. He was very satisfied with the arrangement of his opponents. This kind of French palace architecture is very rare in Germany. , The identity of a family that can own this kind of industry must be extraordinary.
"My head of state, this was originally the manor of the Duke of Augustenburg. Due to economic reasons, Kf bought it for use by senior military and political officials and foreign guests. When Kf took over, it was a rundown and depression. But now you see, it's a very beautiful place, isn't it?" Weierle stood aside and introduced to Xu Jun.
"Kf’s work efficiency is unquestionable. I appreciate their creativity in this area. Find someone to build an awning on that lawn. Is it the size? It can be used by twenty people. I want to be there tomorrow. Hold an open-air luncheon." Xu Jun said to Weierle with the marshal's rod pointing to a lawn by the pool.
"My head of state, I believe you will see the awning you want before dinner tonight." Weirler glanced at Himmler.
"Your Excellency Himmler will definitely prepare everything for you."
"There is no problem at all, my head of state, Your Excellency Weierle." Himmler nodded solemnly and answered.
"Himmler, come to my room in two hours, now you can do your own work first." Xu Jun turned his face and said to Himmler with a smile.
"Yes, my head, I am waiting for your call at any time." Himmler leaned to greet Xu Jun. He stood beside the steps wittily, and did not continue to follow Xu Jun into the building.
"Go and find someone to build a awning there, for twenty people." Himmler turned and whispered to his adjutant.
"Yes, sir, I will arrange for someone to do it right away." The adjutant who wore a full-service SS dress with a sword hanging from the waist replied respectfully.
"You are personally responsible for this. This is the order of the Führer. It must be completed before dinner today. Remember, the Führer lives here. Be careful not to disturb the Führer during your work. You know the consequences." Himmler took off his military cap and touched the back of his shaved head, turned and walked towards his carriage.
"Now let’s check the work of the surrounding security guards. We did a good job outside the airport gate in the morning. The head of state was very happy. The second squadron captain Fiegio should be rewarded. Give him a photo of my autograph. A bonus of five hundred marks.” Himmler stood in front of the car door, and the adjutant approached neatly to open the door for him.
"Well, it’s 8:40 in the morning. The head of state will summon me at 10:40. We have two hours. Give me a detailed report on "Operation Gray Pony". I think the head of state must I would like to know the specifics of that operation." After receiving a response from his subordinates, Himmler got into the back compartment. The adjutant closed the car door for him and stood by the car saluting him goodbye.
Himmler’s Mercedes-Benz with the SS-1 license plate drove out of the roundabout in front of the palace and drove along the main road towards the manor gate. The two tricycles guarding outside the gate overtook the car from both sides and began to clear Himmler ahead.
"The facilities here are good. The hot water is very comfortable." Xu Jun walked out of the bathroom in his bathrobe. He walked to the side. Disenhofen had already put clean replacement clothes and ironed on it. uniform.
"My head of state. Marshal Raidel reported that they are all ready there. He asked if you would visit the shipyard at the scheduled time." Disenhofen took the bathrobe from Xu Jun and turned Turned around and put it on a side table.
"Tell Your Excellency Raidel that I will arrive at the shipyard on time at two o'clock in the afternoon." Xu Jun put on the breeches studded with red trim, sat on it, and Disenhofen knelt on one leg to help him wear it. Lambskin riding boots with tight calves.
"Thank you, Eric." Xu Jun stood up and stomped his feet, feeling no discomfort.
"My head of state, His Excellency Himmler is now waiting for your call in the downstairs hall." Tysenhofen handed over the white shirt.
"What time is it?" Xu Jun fastened the buttons of his shirt, then tucked the hem into the breeches.
"At 11:20, my head of state."
"Wait forty minutes before calling him up again. We must observe the time." Xu Jun buttoned his cuffs and lifted the strap of the breeches to his shoulders.
"Your Excellency Weierle asked when you would have lunch. Today's menu has been placed on your table. Are you going to send them to your room or go to the restaurant to have a meal." The young life secretary mentioned Xu Jun's marshal uniform, Xu Jun reached into his sleeve.
"Let’s decide after I read the menu. I will add a pair of cutlery in a while. I will invite Himmler to have a meal and let Weirler pick a good bottle of wine. The old rules are all counted on my account. "Xu Jun buttoned the buttons of the uniform. The uniform was already wearing a full set of medals instead of the usual abbreviations. Because he was going to the naval shipyard to inspect work in the afternoon, the head of state had to show the dazzling image of the emperor before the people in public.
Xu Jun's extravagant life is not about taking people's cream, all the expenses are actually his own money. The German team was different from the armies of other countries at the time. Even the marshal had to pay for his daily food like the soldiers. The daily food expenses of the officers and soldiers were all the same, and the monthly payment was deducted from the military salary.
Military kitchens provide food for all officers and soldiers. There are no headquarters stoves and special officers’ kitchens, so many German generals eat exactly the same food as soldiers at the front. Even Hitler ate bread and soup on the front line. It was not until the end of the French campaign that he changed his face and started his own vegetarian cooking stove for personal health reasons.
Of course, although the rules of the military cannot be changed, some exceptions are always allowed, provided that the officer can pay for his needs. Officers can hire cooks and servants by themselves, and purchase food of their own preferences. This is the tradition of the military aristocratic culture in the German army. You can drink red wine and eat steak on the battlefield. The key is that everything must be paid for by yourself.
In the early days of the German army’s rise, this unanimous atmosphere did inspire many soldiers, but the thriving scene did not last long. By the middle of the war, due to the early victory of the German army, Germany had gained countless numbers from European countries. With huge wealth, some officials were dazzled by victory and wealth, and began to use their privileges for their own welfare. Senior military officers also began to indulge and enjoy themselves, and privileged classes began to emerge in the army.
The relationship between grassroots soldiers and senior officers is getting farther and farther. Soldiers and formation officers are very dissatisfied with those senior generals who ignore the suffering of frontline officers and soldiers. They are deeply disturbed by the increasingly common crimes within the army. Cracks appeared in the rigorous organizational structure of the army, and military discipline and morale were affected. Among the reasons for the fall of the Third Reich, military issues have always been one of the most critical factors.
Of course, Xu Jun will not ignore these problems. One of the duties of Odin’s Eye is to monitor the inside of the army. Don’t hide any changes from Xu Jun’s eyes. Some ordinary people can understand it, but which one is bold. The guy intends to create an organized interest chain in the military command system, then he will be purged mercilessly. When encountering this kind of thing, Xu Jun will behave more Nazi than any Nazi party, which is why he has not banned concentration camps. The reason is that for Germany during the war, this kind of institution was necessary for its existence.
Reinhardt von Steide was already a rich man in Europe before he came to power. The economic and technical information possessed by the robot Jack is sufficient to support him in creating a huge economic empire. In the private sector, the Steder institution founded by Reinhard von Steder kept a low profile like his master. Ordinary people who were not involved in this circle did not even know the existence of this unit, but in finance and In the industrial world, this name is as prestigious as his master, famous for his sharp eyesight, advanced technology, strong background, and ruthless methods.
Before Xu Jun's arrival, the Stadler organization had already grabbed billions of marks of wealth, and secretly invested industrial and mining enterprises and business networks spread all over the earth. Hitler relied on Stade’s wealth and ideological support to rise quickly, and Jack also relied on Hitler’s asylum to become even more ingenious. Most of this money was spent on operating his own underground kingdom~IndoMTL.com~bribery Officials, bribing colleagues, collecting teams, and establishing underground networks all require a lot of money. The activities of apostle organizations all over the country also come from this.
So now Xu Jun has sufficient funds to support his extravagant life, and he has never been stingy to share with his subordinates. He often gives valuable gifts to his subordinates, usually as a reason for condolences to his family. This moved his generals to add a lot of goodwill to him, and at the same time gained the loyalty of many old soldiers, because a generous lord will always be more supportive of his subordinates than a stingy lord. After all, it had just been out of the monarchy for twenty years, and the idea of feudal empire was still deeply ingrained in the minds of some senior military officers.
Disenhofen hung the shining Knight's Iron Cross on the head of the Führer's neck, and then turned to Xu Jun's back to help fasten the buckle of the ribbon.
"Well, my Führer, you look great, would you like me to make a pot of tea for you?" Xu Jun took the Marshal's scepter handed by Disenhofen and stood in front of the full-length mirror. In a posture that he thought was pretty handsome.
"Well, make me a pot of tea, Eric." Xu Jun moved his face in the mirror and showed a standard commercial smile. Looking at the handsome image in the mirror, the head of state is satisfied. Nodded. (To be continued...)
