Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 19: Puzzle (Part 2)

　　 "It's really unbelievable, my marshal. These cowardly generals will dare to confront their supreme leader. It was a myth before that." Weirler nodded in agreement.

　　"These generals have been under Hitler's suppression for too long. They have completely polished the strength of the soldiers. Look at that Keitel and Von. Brauchic, look at their slavery in front of Hitler. Look like. I can’t believe they will have any thoughts of betraying their master.” Xu Jun said excitedly, and Weierle’s eyes flashed in his eyes when he called his great head of state by name without paying attention. The light of excitement.

　　"My marshal, those generals are indeed just like you said. They have been eroded by Hitler in the past ten years. The generals of the German high command are the weakest in the world. A group of people, they can make any regress and compromise in order to preserve their power and status. So the reliability of their support for you this time is indeed not too high. I originally wanted to remind you not to be too optimistic about the support of those generals , It seems that it’s no longer needed. Your analysis of them is the same as I thought, which makes me very happy.” Weirler smiled and said: “However, after analyzing the reasons for their defection, I I think at least we can trust them in this situation."

　　 "Oh, tell me your analysis." Xu Jun asked curiously.

　　"You may not know, or you did not notice. Your current strength can already face the head of state. The most powerful of the head of state is the Wehrmacht and the SS, which can really make those generals scruples The other is the Gestapo and the Imperial Security Agency. They are afraid of the insidious methods of these departments, so they bow their heads to the head of state and dare not step beyond the thunder pool. Although they admire your military talent very much, they also show you to Germany. The Army’s care is very grateful, but this cannot be a reason for them to risk their lives to support you.

　　 But now, the generals are astonished by your strength. They didn't expect you to have the support of these two departments. You took away half of the head of state at once. The power that threatened their destiny was no longer in Hitler's grasp. And if you lose in this struggle, Hitler will regain his power. By that time, you don’t need to guess what the fate of these generals will be. They will be severely punished as your supporters. Although they did not make their attitude clear before then, their support and admiration of you in front of Hitler had made them impress in Hitler’s heart that they were your followers. Maybe you just want you to gain more power in front of Hitler, so that the Army can get more benefits from it. This situation is something they never thought of. By the time they understand that you are going to confront Hitler, it is too late for them to reposition themselves. It is impossible for them to change this impression.

　　 Hitler had miscalculated the situation at the time. He didn't know that you had actually taken his most important weapon from him. He thought he was in control of everything in Germany, that's why he was so blatantly hostile to the generals who were forced on this path by his life. This was the first mistake Hitler made. Those generals now have to choose you as their only way out. Besides, they may win victory according to your current strength. They are gambling. "Weirler smiled and said his thoughts.

　　 "Your analysis makes sense." Xu Jun nodded in agreement, and then he asked Weierle. "Then what is going on with this promotion order? There must be a conspiracy. Can you give me a reasonable explanation?"

　　"Don’t worry, my marshal, listen to me continue. Although the army has this idea, under the current circumstances they cannot directly contradict the head of state, because this is in line with the tradition of the German army. Inconsistent, they can only support you privately. Moreover, Hitler reconvened a meeting with the senior leaders of the Nazi Party separately after the meeting. He may have realized his mistake. On the next day, He began to desperately use the soft policy to win over the generals, but to my surprise, all the generals showed the firmness they had never had before. Perhaps it was because they felt that they no longer need to be afraid of those generals. The conspiracy was framed. Especially Marshal von Brauchic, although he was respectful to Hitler on the surface, and once again expressed his loyalty to Hitler, but after looking back he called all the generals together to discuss how Come to support you. He was like a different person in the meeting. It was surprising that he was active. This makes me feel a little bit weird.

　　 We now have the support of the entire headquarters of the General Staff and the Army Command. Although they cannot help you by force, they can definitely contain some of Hitler’s power. At least Hitler can no longer use it. The power of the army is here to deal with you. The Navy is now on the sidelines, and Raidel wants to stay out of the matter. He is now using procrastination tactics against Hitler, and he is not a fool. In this situation, showing loyalty to any party is dangerous for him. The current attitude of the Air Force is very unclear. It seems that it has been divided into several factions. The faction headed by Mirch wants to support the Führer, while some of the other factions want to follow you and some want to remain neutral. The Air Force can react to this matter only after they reach a unified opinion. And now your biggest enemy is Reinhardt. Heydrich. He will be your biggest threat. "Weirler said seriously.

　　"Heydrich. He is indeed a very big trouble. The evil wisdom of this man will indeed help Hitler a lot. I have been informed a long time ago, and he was in a hurry the next day. Busy to the base camp, he will definitely give Hitler some ideas. This despicable villain, cruel butcher is definitely one of the most dangerous enemies on my way forward." Xu Jun's eyes exuded a sharp cold light. /

　　"Speaking of which, I want to ask you a question, which is also a question that all those who support you want to know. You have not expressed your attitude until now, and we don’t know what your ultimate goal is. Do you want to fight Hitler in court or do you want to replace it. I and other "bishops" and generals in the command want to know what you think. Only when we know your thoughts can we make plans on how to help you , We have the next goal. In my mind, you are the only candidate to replace Hitler. From the bottom of my heart, I feel that Germany can only be revived under your leadership. What Hitler did after he came to power It really disappoints me. He will bring Germany into the abyss of darkness. So from the bottom of my heart I hope that your goal this time is the same as I expected, to oust Hitler and thoroughly clean up those dirty government institutions. , To bring Germany back on the right path." At this point, Weierle's eyes were full of expectations.

　　 "Weirle, I can't promise you anything now, but I will make your wish come true." After speaking, Xu Jun smiled and nodded to Weierle.

　　 Hearing Xu Jun’s answer, Weierle couldn’t help but be overjoyed. He said happily: “So you really want to do this, so I and all the "bishops" will be relieved, what we did before All the work has paid off. We will do everything we can to help you achieve this goal, even if you are crushed. Eliminate evil and bring the Germanic nation to the light. You are indeed an apostle sent by God to save Germany. ."

　　 "Alright, now is not the time to talk about this. You can talk about Heydrich's situation." Xu Jun smiled and stopped Weierler's hymn.

　　"Oh, yes, my marshal. Heydrich was received by the Führer as soon as he arrived at base camp. The two of them talked alone for a whole morning. No one knew what they were talking about. But here After this conversation, Hitler was like a different person. The worries and anxieties he showed before suddenly disappeared completely, as if they had come up with a good way to deal with you in this conversation. Hitler completely He restored him to his original state. Then he began to woo the generals, almost to the point where they could do everything. However, the generals had already tasted the bitterness of his trick. He used to do this before the stage, but immediately after taking the stage he stepped on the generals he had wooed, so this time he did not get any results.

　　 Heydrich may have given Hitler a detailed report on what you did in Warsaw this time, and he may also have told Hitler about your "bishop". Although we are not sure how much he knows, what we can be sure of is that Heydrich's buddies in the Imperial Security Bureau have begun secret investigations into some departments we have. However, they still underestimated our strength. We intercepted that order. From the order, they wanted to kill the "bishops". They have the power to execute any "bishops" without trial and trial.

　　 It’s a pity that they never thought that most of the investigators they sent were our "priests." Letting a group of "priests" come to catch the "bishop" is simply the most ridiculous joke I have ever heard. However, this is a great opportunity for us. We can take this opportunity to get rid of those diehards that we have been unable to get rid of before, and let those **** scumbags serve as scapegoats for the "bishops". But this is just our idea, and you have to get your approval and consent. "Weirle respectfully awaits Xu Jun's reply.

　　"Yes, this is indeed a very good opportunity. I am still worried about how to solve those guys if I succeed in defeating Hitler this time. Now it happens that Hitler’s hands can be used The scum is cleared, how could I give up such a good opportunity." Xu Jun continued: "What information did Heydrich provide to Hitler, and how does his master Himmler react now."

　　 "You won't believe it, Heydrich may have sold his master."

　　 "What? Tell me in detail."

　　"Heydrich didn’t know what he thought. He might have said something bad about Himmler in front of Hitler. He might want to take advantage of this critical period to replace Himmler. You also know Himmler’s relationship with you It has always been very harmonious. It can be said that he admires you as his idol. In his mind, you are second only to Hitler as a great figure. That is why you used his subordinates when this incident happened. After the Gestapo and the Waffen-SS, Hitler became suspicious of him.

　　 Now he is the most unjust victim of this incident, and Hitler did not let him attend the meeting at all. Heydrich saw this clearly. He thought it was a chance for him to get to the next level, so he went to Hitler to frame his master. We do not know what he said to Hitler, or whether Hitler believed that his most faithful Heinrich had betrayed him. But what we can be sure of is that Hitler has indeed taken action against Himmler.

　　 According to the information we have now, he has been completely emptied by his close assistant. However, since this matter is still only carried out at the top level, Simlai still retains his command over the entire SS on the surface, but no one will execute his orders anymore. Now all of the SS The command and persuasion are in Heydrich's hands.

　　 I think he may have been mad at this incident, but in this way, Himmler was also pushed to our side by his most loyal head, our "bishops" have already been with him His immediate family members contacted him. Although he lost his actual power, his great influence in the SS is still there. I believe he will play a role in our future actions.

　　 Regarding the other high-level officials, we still don’t know their true thoughts, but some people have begun to contact us through various channels. It seems that the entire high-level officials are now splitting up. However, after our analysis, we believe that when you and Hitler have not clearly distinguished the outcome, many people will choose to fall on both sides, and the loyalty of these people is completely negligible. "

　　 Hearing Xu Jun interrupting Weierle here, he frowned and asked. "Then about me, how do civilians in Germany think about it."

　　"My marshal, this is the most critical issue. Hitler is remedying his mistake, and he used the publicity of this matter to give you the first fight back."

　　 "How could this happen." Xu Jun asked eagerly.

　　"On the third day after this incident, Hitler spoke about this incident on the radio. He used all the compliments he knew to give you this time The Great Purge praised. He also desperately criticized and cursed the people you executed. In his broadcast, he called you his most reliable and loyal comrade-in-arms. He also listed you one by one. The contribution made by Germany and your outstanding achievements on the front line. His move is very powerful, and now all Germans think you are the most favored one of all the subordinates of the Führer, and they are all worshiping you enthusiastically. And no one can know that you and your head of state are incompatible." Weierle said solemnly.

　　"Sure enough, he wanted me to be unable to turn his face on him publicly. He knew that his current situation was not prevailing, so he used this trick to prevent me from attacking him. Okay, it really is. The wise man did not disappoint me. Now he has affirmed what I have done and expressed his attitude in front of all the Germans. He thought that in this way, I would not get any attack from this matter. His excuse, he thought that I would not be able to use this matter to launch an attack on him. He wanted to stabilize me first, and then use other methods to restore his current unfavorable situation bit by bit. At that time, the guys who drove the rudder would fall back to him again, and then he used thunder to solve me all at once. It was a good plan, but he really took me too simple. In this situation, might I just stop like this? It's a joke. Don't worry, I won't let him have any chance to breathe. Now I understand. Why did he want to be promoted to my rank? One step in his action plan." Xu Jun sneered.

　　"Marshal, your wisdom is indeed well-deserved. These are indeed the preliminary conclusions we reached after analysis~IndoMTL.com~ I didn’t expect you to think of these all at once. It seems that Hitler’s think tanks are not at all Your opponent. Yes, this promotion is indeed a cruel move by him against you." Weierle continued: "This promotion actually belongs to the command department as I said before. Those generals expressed their support to you as a good way. At that time, this proposal made Hitler thunderous in the office, and he did not agree to let you be promoted to Field Marshal. But what he did not expect was that it was Hayley again. Hee, not long after he entered the office of the head of state, Hitler suddenly agreed to this proposal. But he may still be a little unhappy with this matter, so he gave the order, and this promotion will be based on the rank of field commander. Awarded. Those generals protested many times without any results, so they had to agree to Hitler's request.

　　Because I have been your subordinate, the generals asked me to give you this promotion order, but they still used the power at hand, they promoted me to brigadier general when I was leaving , And by the way, all three of your most powerful assistants have been promoted by one level. They want to show their humility in this matter. And I also got an important piece of information from the hints that those generals gave me. Your promotion will be closely related to Hitler's next move. We don’t know the specifics, but we know they have developed a "Jack Fried" plan specifically for you. Therefore, you still have to be more careful in your future actions. "

　　 "Jack Fred? Dragon slayer? Haha, I would like to see how he came to slaughter my dragon. Hahahaha." Xu Jun couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this.
