Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 164: The wind will rise
Xu Jun returned to the submarine deck and looked up and found that there were already a lot of people waiting on the dock. Net [//No pop-ups for novel updates, please search] The visit to u1001 was only his temporary intention, and it disrupted a series of follow-up activities. Of course, Xu Jun can't feel guilty about this, and the other party won't have the slightest complaint about it.
Before Hitler was known for his erratic whereabouts, and it was commonplace to modify the travel plan temporarily. It was mainly for safety reasons, but it did let that one escape several carefully planned assassinations.
Xu Jun’s current enemies are no less than Hitler’s, and because of several successive purge operations, a lot of enemies within Germany have been added. No matter how rigorous the plan is, there will be accidents, such as leaking fish. It is inevitable. Xu Jun believes that there must be some people waiting in the dark for a chance for revenge, no matter what their status is, no matter what reason they have, the ultimate goal is the same, to remove him and the empire he represents from this The world is completely wiped out.
The superstructure of the current Third Reich is very fragile. Xu Jun is the core of the entire power structure. He is the bond that can unite the various forces in Germany. No one can replace his position. Once he loses him, the leadership of the Third Reich will immediately lose control, and various interest and power groups will inevitably fall into a melee for that seat. At this time, once foreign forces intervene, whether it is military or political, or even the entire empire Therefore, it fell apart. At that time, Germany was not only unable to keep its current achievements, but it was more likely to eventually become a delicacy in the mouth of others. Xu Jun and everything in front of them would be trampled under the feet of the enemy. The history compiled by the victor was for the loser. Never show mercy.
Xu Jun walked slowly down the trestle bridge, Himmler walked forward with a look of concern, he turned his back to the crowd, leaned close to Xu Jun and whispered: "My head, Hans half an hour ago The general's plane has landed, and Galeazzo Ciano also arrived on the same plane. He really followed."
"Has the reception work been arranged?"
"The Berlin Ministry of Foreign Affairs has someone to accompany him, my head of state, he asks to meet you when he gets off the plane. It is said that there is a very urgent matter to discuss with you." Himmler replied respectfully.
For the first time, Himmler realized that he was intervening in public affairs at the national level. This discovery made him really excited. Only at this time did he truly realize that he had become a big figure at the top of the country's power. However, Himmler did not faint his head because of this. He knew that all the power he had now came from his loyalty. Otherwise, the apostle in front of him can beat him back to his original shape at any time.
"Go and deal with him first. You are now the Minister of the Interior of Germany. I apologize to Ciano. When I finish my affairs, I will meet him immediately... Well, let's do that. You Meet him at his resident, and at the same time take care of the restaurant on the side of the Star Hotel to prepare some Italian meals. You said to Ziano, that I will invite him to dinner. Also, you'd better find a way to test him. The purpose of this visit, as soon as there is any news, report to me immediately." Xu Jun frowned, the tip of his boot rubbed against the concrete floor of the dock. For the Third Reich, the Italians have always been a trouble that cannot be avoided. Ciano's arrival must have had a plan. Before meeting with him for a meeting, Xu Jun needs some intelligence support.
"Yes. My head of state, I will arrange these things immediately. Please allow me to leave." Himmler nodded to Xu Jun, then turned and walked quickly towards his car.
"How do you plan for the next step, my head of state?" Weierle stepped forward and asked Xu Jun.
"Marshal Raidel!" Xu Jun turned and shouted at Raidel.
"I am here, my head of state." Raidel was talking with several naval officers, and when he heard Xu Jun's call, he turned around and responded quickly.
"I want to adjust the activity schedule for this afternoon. Now I have to rush to deal with some urgent official duties. The time for visiting the dock will be changed to tomorrow morning. How do you think of this arrangement?"
"There is no problem at all. My head, everything follows your will."
"Tonight's meeting will also be postponed. Change it to tomorrow noon. I hope you can apologize to everyone for me."
"Everything is subject to your arrangements. My head of state, I believe they will understand it too, my head of state." Raidel nodded and expressed obedience. The first task of the admiral this time is to show favor and flattery to the head of state. , How could it be possible to defy the head of the state? Anyway, Xu Jun will stay in Kiel for three days. The navy has time and opportunity.
"Well, your Excellency Marshal, I am very satisfied with today's inspection. I have seen the strength and determination of the German navy's revival in these soldiers and officers, and I am very impressed." Raidel's answer made Xu Jun Very satisfied, of course he will not be stingy with compliments to the German Navy.
At this time, Disenhofen made a gesture to the motorcade parked on the side. The drivers quickly started the engine. The soldiers of the guard flag team stepped forward to separate the crowd, and the Mercedes-Benz 770k quickly drove to Xu Jun's side. .
"Then that's it, I'll leave first, your marshal, you guys, we'll see you tomorrow." Disenhofen opened the rear door, and Xu Jun stepped on the pedal next to the car with one foot, turned his face and shook his face. In a handsome posture, he held the marshal's stick and knocked on the brim of his hat, his eyes shot across a circle of people and smiled brightly, then he turned neatly and sat in the car.
Wait until Weierle also boarded the car, Disenhofen closed the door and sat in the position of the co-pilot. The driver stepped on the accelerator and the Mercedes-Benz started slowly. Two soldiers from the guard flag team stood on the pedal next to the car door to guard, and when the car speed began to increase, they jumped off the pedal quickly. The truck carrying the guard flag team followed from behind, and the two soldiers ran a few steps quickly and climbed onto the moving truck with the help of their comrades in the vehicle.
"What happened, my head of state." Weierle asked Xu Jun suspiciously.
"Ziano is here, there seems to be something urgent. I asked Himmler to deal with him. Weierle, the Italian must be planning something. I need to contact the command immediately."
At this time, two tricycles overtook Xu Jun's car, one left and the other sandwiched Xu Jun's Mercedes-Benz in the middle.
"Attention, my head of state." Diisenhofen reminded Xu Jun loudly, he secretly reached into the dark cabinet under the dashboard, where there was a mp40 for self-defense.
"My Führer!" Sitting in the motorcycle bucket is a SS officer who looks very young. He wears a shiny black m35 helmet and shiny goggles can't hide his fanaticism. With a look in his eyes, he held the machine gun frame in front of the car with one hand, while raising his right arm in a salute to Xu Jun.
Xu Jun turned his head and looked at each other. Expressionlessly, he raised the marshal's staff in his hand.
"Hi! Reinhardt." The SS officer shouted with excitement, then sat back in the car and waved his arms forward, two tricycles quickly overtook the Mercedes, and joined the road side by side. The formation of the motorcycle.
"What a daredevil." Disenhofen realized that it was just a false alarm. He was really frightened out of a cold sweat.
"I've seen him a long time ago. This should be the new commander of the Flag Guard selected by Lieutenant Colonel Kirsten and came with Hans." Xu Jun said calmly to Disenhofen. The calm demeanor exchanged the adjutant's admiring eyes.
"We have arranged a lot of manpower on the Italian side, and we should be able to obtain accurate information soon. I hope that leader will not be hotheaded. We still have a lot of troubles to solve now, and I really don’t want to spend it on him. Energetic." Weierle changed the subject, the chief of staff said leisurely while wiping his glasses.
"I hope so, Weierle, I hope so." Xu Jun answered the Chief of Staff's words indifferently, and at the same time quietly stuffed the pistol in his left hand back into the secret compartment next to the seat.
Xu Jun returned to his residence. He first went to his suite to freshen up and take a shower. Although Keele was not too hot in August, it still made him sweat, given that there will be foreign affairs at night. Xu Jun must maintain a good condition, because he now represents the face of Germany.
Xu Jun finished washing and put on breeches and boots with the help of Disenhofen. The Führer did not put on the gorgeous marshal uniform anymore. He only wore a snow-white army shirt on his upper body. The top two buttons were not buttoned. He opened his collar and walked out of the bedroom with a glass of ice water.
"The weather is a bit hot, my head of state." Xu Jun looked up and found that Weirler was sitting on the sofa, holding a document in his hand. A sharp smile on his face.
"It is said that rain will start again the day after tomorrow. These two days are the rare good weather in Kiel, my head of state." Weierle stood up and leaned slightly to greet Xu Jun.
"Would you like a glass?" Xu Jun raised the water glass and gestured. After seeing the other party shaking his head, he walked to the dessert table aside and picked up a small biscuit.
"Are there any gains from Himmler?" Xu Jun chewed cookies and walked to the sofa and sat down.
"Not yet, my Führer. He sent an adjutant to call you. Ziano's voice is very tight, and he has been urging Himmler to arrange for him to meet you. This is the latest flight from the command. The battle report. You need to check it out."
Xu Jun has found a stack of documents on the coffee table, and he picked up a careful look.
"Take Canterbury? Guderian moved faster than I expected. This climate can be regarded as a torture for him. I didn't expect that he could still make such a fast attack." Xu Jun put the water glass in his hand on the table, and he carefully began to read the preliminary report of the battle.
"The heavy rain has not hindered the German team as much as we expected, mainly because we have made targeted preparations for this. But the British are different. They have almost no defense. They are building in low-lying areas. The defensive position at the place was flooded by rain, and the only mechanized unit was stuck in the mud outside the city. In contrast, our tracked vehicles performed much better than them."
"The tracks of British armored vehicles are too narrow."
"Yes, the track is too narrow, the rain is surprisingly heavy, and the roadbed is soft." Weirler nodded in agreement.
"There is nothing wrong with our infantry~ IndoMTL.com~ The British are different. They lack long-range weapons and lack mobility. The most important thing is that they have too few troops." Weierle pointed to Xu Jun's hand Said the file inside.
At this time, Disenhofen walked into the room holding a tray. He first put a cup of green tea in front of Xu Jun, and then handed the other cup to Weierle.
"Thank you, Eric." Weierler happily took the teacup, and he nodded in thanks to Disenhofen.
"My head of state, this is a telegram just received by the communications office from Lieutenant Colonel Kirsten. The telegram requires that it be delivered to you as soon as possible." Disenhofen took it from his pocket A telegram was sent out and handed to Xu Jun.
"Thank you." Xu Jun took the telegram and read it carefully. After reading the message, Xu Jun took a deep breath. He passed the telegram to Weierle, who was looking forward to him, and then picked up the green tea in front of him.
"I think I already know why Ciano is so anxious to see me." Xu Jun blew the hot tea, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
