Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 282: The Stormtrooper (Part 2)
How to deal with the stormtroopers? To be honest, Xu Jun has not seriously considered this issue, because the complexity of the members of this organization has surpassed all Nazi units.
During the rapid expansion of the stormtroopers, the main sources of members were as follows: veterans and Nazi party members, landless peasants and urban refugees, low-level workers and handicraftsmen, and the German middle class who were dissatisfied with the social status quo were annexed by the Nazi party Members of the other right-wing parties, as well as members of the Social Democratic Party and the Communist Party.
You are not mistaken. At that time, a large number of left-wing forces were mixed in the stormtroopers. These people concealed their political beliefs and party background, and their words and deeds looked like ordinary stormtroopers.
Not all the stormtroopers were members of the Nazis, which caused Hitler to never fully trust them. Roma's rebelliousness was another reason.
During the strongest period of the stormtroopers, stormtrooper organizations in some areas even consciously rejected the Nazis in the team. Especially those stormtroopers who came from the ordinary working class, they regarded the confluence of the Nazi Party and capital forces as a betrayal of the working people and the 25th Program.
This type of stormtrooper is nicknamed "steak" inside the stormtrooper, which means "brown on the outside, red on the inside", which is really a metaphor that cannot be more vivid. In the three to four years, the number of "steaks" in the stormtroopers in northern Germany even accounted for more than 70% of the total.
The Gestapo was aware of this dangerous tendency within the stormtroopers for a long time. It can also be said that the existence of these socialist radicals clamoring for the second revolution in the stormtroopers finally forced Hitler to make a decision to cleanse the stormtroopers. .
After "Night of the Long Knives", the stormtrooper's left-leaning trend was curbed, but the "Steaks" still existed, but their activities became more hidden.
At this time, the stormtrooper has become an ordinary national organization. After losing the trust and support of the Nazi Party and the government, the total number has dropped to 40% of the original. However, because the original base was too high, there were at least one million stormtroopers in Germany at this time.
Even at this point, the stormtrooper is still a large-scale and highly organized force, with a complete organizational structure and a solid mass foundation at the grassroots level. Xu Jun could not allow such a force to exist that was not under his control, and of course he would not let this group be idle like in history.
Hitler’s marginal treatment of the stormtroopers helped the group to some extent and kept the organization away from those war crimes. As a result, in the post-war trial, the stormtroopers were judged to be legal social organizations by the International Court of Justice. , Does not belong to a criminal organization like the SS.
"Report your number and name, Stormtrooper." Xu Jun stood on the table, looking down at the young brown shirt in front of him.
"The first team of the 44th squadron of the second division team of the Berlin Stormtrooper, the first team captain Rudolf Berkman, salute the head of state! Victory!" The leader of the first team took a step forward, boots Raised his right arm after hitting.
"Hurray!" The stormtroopers raised their arms again.
"Victory!" "Long live!" This time the surrounding people also joined in, and the long live sound of the mountains roaring and tsunami spreading towards the neighborhood.
"Victory!" "Long live!" Three Calls Long live, this is a Nazi repertoire. Although there are always so many times in every rally, it can make people feel that passionate power every time. .
This is the display of collectivism in reality, and the kind of fanaticism displayed by the group can often make individual individuals indulge in it, and it seems that they have drawn some mysterious power from it, and feel that they have become glorified. And be strong.
"Captain Berkman of the First Class Stormtrooper." Xu Jun nodded in satisfaction.
The ownership of the stormtroopers is distinguished by various colors according to the region where they are located. So as long as you look at the top of their bucket hat and the color of the collar, you can easily identify where the team belongs. The logo color of the Berlin stormtroopers is black, because this was once the uniform color of the Prussian army, which is the same as the color of the SS uniform.
It's just that the SS not only adopted the Prussian black uniform, but also stole the skull logo of the Imperial Hussar. As a result, the shirt was collided with the German Armored Corps, the successor of the original logo. The skull logo on the uniform collar of the German Armored Corps came from their cavalry ancestors. Apart from the same pattern source, it had nothing to do with the SS.
"Yes, my head of state." Berkman replied excitedly with his chest straightened out.
This stormtrooper squad is not full, there are only 22 stormtroopers in total, almost half an infantry platoon. They were not armed either, and each person only had a short sword of stormtrooper standard.
Berkman will show up here. Safety is a coincidence. Today is the birthday of one of his team members. A group of people have made an appointment to go to the zoo to celebrate, because the restaurant in the garden is cheap and it sells the best in Berlin. Of private brewed beer.
As a result, when they just got out of the subway station on the west side of Hindenburg Street, they saw hurried passers-by.
At first, Berkman thought there was an accident. When he caught a pedestrian and asked what was going on, he knew that there were wild heads of state nearby. Everyone rushed to see the truth.
As a result, when they finally rushed to the scene, the blood donation activity here was over, and the failure to catch up with this feat made Berkman and his party regretful.
But then something happened that they will never forget in their lifetime. Maybe God heard the prayers of the stormtroopers, and the head of the Empire noticed this small force unexpectedly. At that moment, Berkman was suddenly blessed to his heart, and he quickly squeezed into the front of the crowd with his subordinates, arranged a line to pay tribute to the head of the empire.
"First-level squad leader Berkman, I need someone to help maintain order. Can your people take up this task?" the head of state asked with majesty.
"No problem, my Führer!" The team leader was shaking with excitement at the moment to catch up with the Führer.
"Very good, now follow my orders, Berkman, the first squadron, the first squadron of the 44th squadron of the stormtrooper. From this moment on, follow the command of Colonel Dougan. He will tell you exactly what to do. "Xu Jun pointed to Daogen and ordered.
"Yes, my head!" Berkman quickly raised his right arm to salute Xu Jun.
"Hi! Reinhardt!" The stormtrooper hurriedly followed his boss and raised his arm.
"Before the reinforcements from the National Guard and the General Security Bureau arrived, we only had this person in hand. I think you should first ensure your personal safety." Daogen suggested on the side.
"Don't worry, Daogen, no one can hurt me at this time and place." Xu Jun knelt down and said to Daogen.
"Look at these people, Daogen, they are my strongest shield." Xu Jun's face was full of confidence, pointing to the people around him.
"Just do what I said, Colonel." The Führer smiled and stood up again.
"As you wish, my head." Daogen lowered his head humbly and paid his respects to his head.
"Remember today~IndoMTL.com~Eric, this is a day that will surely be recorded in history." Witnessing the energetic head of the Empire, Weierle whispered to Disenhofen.
"We found this in that idiot." Instead of taking the chief of staff's words, the adjutant handed Weierle a piece of paper.
"I found it from that guy?" Weierle raised his hand and put on the monocle, then took the paper from the opponent.
"Can you recognize the monogram above? I don't understand what is written at all." Disenhofen looked at Weierle expectantly, hoping to get an answer from the other party.
Willer frowned as he watched the complicated monogram on the paper, and began to search hard in his memory.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly the chief of staff had a flash of inspiration, and he hurriedly took out a small mirror from the pocket of his suit.
"Yes, it is indeed Kanaris's monogram. I didn't expect there to be fish slipping through the net." The chief of staff's face was gloomy.
