However, Hitler didn’t just sit back and wait for death. He relied on the French to secretly finance and annex several small parties with no power, secretly develop formal political forces and prepare for the upcoming parliamentary elections.
Saudi Arabia’s diplomatic activities have made arcado a fortune, and the stretched defense forces have been replenished. In the Bavarian mountainous area, the armored forces of the Central Defense Forces have been expanded to nine, which are equipped enough according to arcado’s vision. Three tank divisions are nearly full, and these armored forces are practicing day and night to crush their opponents to make final preparations
However, on this day, an old acquaintance from arcado came to the headquarters of the National Defence Force. This person was none other than Smith, a British school. When arcado heard that he had prepared a little, he asked Smith to come to his office.
"arcado! My dear friend, thanks to you, I got a medal. "As soon as we met, Smith School pointed to his chest card and showed off."
Arcado motioned Anna Smith to pour a cup of coffee and then smiled and said, "Then you should invite me to dinner, Mr. Smith."
"Ha ha ha ha! There are too many people who want to invite Aka to dinner now. I’m afraid I can’t even line up! " Smith looked at him while joking, pouring coffee next to him. Anna picked an eyebrow. "You will enjoy the secret more and more. It’s such a stunning beauty."
"Don’t interrupt once. You should have met Anna Mi when I went to visit you." arcado burst out laughing. "What did you want to see me?"
"To tell you the truth, this time I came to ask you for help from a friend in the navy. I heard that you also have contacts in the navy. My friend wants to ask you a favor." Smith took a sip of coffee and sighed. "Your coffee making skills are really average. I still think black tea tastes better."
"If you’re here for a drink, I’ll give you red wine, but I promised first that I wouldn’t talk about business when drinking," said arcado, pretending to be angry.
Smith waved his hand and sighed, "You really can’t take a joke. I really doubt that you are the German emperor. People don’t say that Germany is not good at all."
He didn’t wait for arcado to speak and continued, "All right! No kidding! One of our transport ships has disappeared in the North Atlantic. This military transport ship has not only transported a large number of arms, but also several important engineers. Our government will find this ship at all costs. "
When he said the words at all costs, he emphasized the tone. As he said it, he also looked at arcado and hoped that arcado’s face would see something.
It’s a pity that he didn’t see anything. arcado was surprised. Then he asked, "You mean let us help you find a missing transport?"
"That’s right." Smith nodded. He was ordered to test a arcado reaction, because Britain confirmed a few days ago that the ship had sunk and some wreckage was found near the sinking site, but unfortunately no survivors were found.
"Germany will send a destroyer to participate in the search and rescue," Aka said after much thought. "But it is not easy to find a transport ship in such a large area of the North Atlantic."
"Thank you." Smith got up and was grateful. He held out his hand and shook hands with arcado.
As he walked out of the headquarters of the National Defence Force, Smith brought a naval officer with a frown and asked, "It seems that this arcado really doesn’t know about our shipwreck."
"no! I can’t understand this person! " Smith waved his hand and swept away the image of a nice guy in arcado’s office. His eyes narrowed and he sighed before he said slowly, "Can you say that we didn’t test out the result! Nothing more. "
Chapter 72 72 Joint Staff
"I don’t think we can let him master more power. He is too young and impulsive to do things. We can’t hand over the future of Germany to such a little boy," said an old general with thick eyebrows leaning back.
A middle-aged man with a brand-new general beside him seemed dismissive. "We are all old, and he has done what we really want to do but can’t, so we should support him."
"How to support him? What he put me away was enough to hang him dozens of times when I was young! We didn’t pursue it and gave it back to him more and more vigorously. "A veteran with a big white beard and a bald head patted the table.
"However, his recent diplomatic efforts have been quite successful. We can’t regard him as contributing to Germany just because he has done something out of line, because he is getting stronger and stronger, which is what we all want to see." President Hindenburg, who sat first, narrowed his eyes and said that he was in poor health recently. After a few words, he took a breath.
"General Hammerstein’s position as commander-in-chief still reassures us all and can give Akka some pressure to do things with scruples!" The most talking heavy eyebrows old general wanted to think and said
"well! We can’t just change the commander-in-chief of the national defense forces, Hammerstein, when he was our key, but there is no need to change it. "The middle-aged general also opposed him and nodded and said," Our control forces are decreasing and we can’t give him any more real. "
"If you don’t trust to give him the navy, you can see that he is a rare talent who is proficient in many multi-arms wars. I have no problem with giving him the navy, and the navy has less than 20,000 people. We can afford this reward," said Lieutenant General Lei Deer, the actual commander of the German navy in the corner of the table.
Central bald old general hum a smile "hum you are willing to give up money! The naval part of Project Hades turned you over as a naval commander, and you worked so hard to support that little Major General arcado? Give him all the strength in your hand? "
"Watch your mouth!" The old general with the most heavy eyebrows was annoyed and said, "Are we talking about dealing with arcado? Major General Rudolf asked, "What will this have to do with Lei Deer?"
"What else can I do? We promoted him to lieutenant general? Have you ever seen a German general under 2 years old? Go and have a look at the national defense forces! How many are there in the forty-year-old school? The 50-year-old Major General is already a young man! You make us nobles feel at home? Salute a general younger than them? " Bald old general more say more angry clap table complained.
"Don’t strike table in front of me! There is one person in this generation who can pat my desk, and that is the emperor! " Hindenburg opened his eyes and slowly said that the room was quiet at once, and no one dared to talk again.
"At present, all the exercise planning departments of the National Defence Force have worked out more than half of the weapons and equipment through his hands. It is he who ordered the procurement of the future development program, and he came out a few years ago and gradually improved it to the present …" The speech seems to be a very physical labor for Hindenburg. He slowly finished a paragraph and stopped to take a deep breath.
Then he looked around the generals, most of whom followed him in the four directions, which was his office. "We are all old! One day, we will hand over our strength to the young people behind us. What we need to do is simply that Germany will choose these successors. "
"I am a middle-aged general," the middle-aged general stood up and said, "but I know that there is no shame in letting me salute General arcado if he can lead us to victory! To Tapp’s German courtesy in the army! "
"So be it this time" Hindenburg nodded his head and helped slowly get up "I was promoted to arcado in name? Rudolph’s National Defence Force * will be responsible for the establishment of the Joint Operations Staff of the National Defence Forces, and his first Chief of Staff of the Joint Operations of the National Defence Forces will be responsible for the establishment and reorganization of the National Defence Forces. "
Clashing neatly, everyone got up from their seats and saluted at attention. "Yes!"
Now that things have been finalized, the meeting will be declared over. Hindenburg first walked out of the meeting room with the help of the secret, while others dispersed in twos and threes.
"Under the age of 2, the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, the German Wehrmacht, will become the laughing stock of the world! Old marshal, after all, he is old. "While moving to the corridor outside the meeting room, the bald general frowned and complained to the general with heavy eyebrows about his age."
"Compared with this, I am more worried about the expansion of the Great German Party army. I am not afraid of a national defense army. I am afraid that it is a dictator who has lost control of the military and political affairs. Once this person makes a mistake, Germany will be doomed." The heavy-browed old general sighed.
"When the Battle of the Somme, I knew you could see farther than I did. I am a Beowulf. I didn’t have as many twists and turns as you. But I just saw that arcado was not pleasing to the eye. Why did he become a senior general at an early age? I * will but take my life for it! He was a big soldier in the old war! Mom … "The bald general Hu swore and accompanied the heavy-browed old general to walk further and further, and the sound gradually became inaudible.
The middle-aged general watched the two of them go far and stopped, waiting for Lei Deer to walk side by side before asking, "I heard that you and Lieutenant General arcado met two years ago, and their friendship is still very good. Sometimes I treat you to have dinner together?"
There will never be a shortage of wise people in this world. After seeing the unstoppable rise of arcado with their own eyes, the commander who holds the command of two divisions of the German Defence Forces near Leipzig and Dresden finally decided to choose before. Sometimes life is a gamble, and if you win, you will be successful in gambling, and it will be beyond redemption. However, if you want to gamble, you must start early to get benefits because of timely help, and it will be easy to be settled later.
Bokezhong will be a wise man. He knows that he can be successfully promoted to the national defense force. He will rely on arcado’s "Pluto Plan" to expand the number of national defense forces. He was a staff school of the Ministry of National Defense in 192, and in just five years, he became a young general of the national defense forces with the expansion of arcado.
Originally, he was determined to repay Prussia’s loyalty to President Hindenburg who took him with him, but when he found that Hindenburg’s old body was about to collapse, he couldn’t get rid of the idea of finding another way out. After comparing various forces, he decided to bet his life on the new rising arcado? Rudolph regiment
"There is no problem. General arcado has always wanted to know a general Bok, but he has never had a chance." Lei Deer was stunned. Among the participants in this meeting, he was closely associated with arcado, and he made a big speech in arcado. If he did not represent the opinions of the navy, he probably would not have been called.
"thank you! I have treasured a bottle of French Margaux wine there for some years! Come to my house late! I asked Mary to prepare her famous salad and thick soup. "On the principle that choosing a day is better than hitting the sun, Bok is not going to wave this opportunity. He wants to establish a friendship with Lei Deer at once, and his home is Berlin, not Dresden, where his army headquarters is located.
Lei Deer also tried to woo and make friends. He nodded happily and agreed, "Of course, I’d be happy to go! You know I’m a wine addict, and I’m reluctant to leave when I hear there’s good wine. Hahahaha. "
Laughing, he followed Bok forward, then lowered his voice and said, "If you don’t mind, General arcado and Mr. Ster Lehsmann, the vice chairman of the Great German Party, might as well call them tonight?"
"Of course! No problem at all! " Bok smiled more and got to know arcado directly. In the future, arcado probably won’t be on the same level as Lei Deer, so the benefits will naturally be less. So he added, "Since so many distinguished guests can be invited to eat salad and thick soup, they will neglect me. I’ll go back and make a call and ask the servants to choose more steaks before preparing a roast chicken."
In the evening, arcado, Lehsmann’s confidant Merkel and Jelinek? Casia and others followed Lei Deer to Bok Berlin. Several people in the family were talking and laughing until it was late.
The next day, Bok secretly joined the Great German Party and hurried back to the Dresden headquarters to deploy and prepare to receive arcado’s secret transfer of armored vehicles and new artillery.
Moreover, he even invited the head-level meeting, that is, the officers of the 9th and 1st Divisions of the National Defence Forces to attend the regular meeting and personally announced that they would no longer interfere with the development of the Great German Party in the Ministry of Military Affairs. When Hindenburg returned to Berlin, he heard that he sat quietly for more than ten minutes without saying a word.
Just a few hours ago, he just issued an order to set up the Joint Operations Staff of the Armed Forces of the Army, Navy and Armed Forces, and was promoted from new to arcado. Rudolph will be the first chief of staff of the joint operations of the three armed forces.
For the first time, arcado controlled half of the national defense forces, which means that even if Hindenburg wanted to replace arcado, he wouldn’t get the support of the national defense forces as before.
Chapter 73 73 Unlucky Hadela
"Do you like it?" Arcado gently asked the girl next to his shoulder in a gentle tone in the dark environment.
"It’s so touching to like this film that I can’t stop crying," Mercedes replied softly.
This is a movie called "Ghost" shot by Germany. The film investment film company is a small company of the National Defence Force, and it was not other than arcado, the traveler. Just as everyone knows, this movie describes a touching love story, which moved the senior officials of the Great German Party and the social aristocrats who attended the premiere.
The film also brought the film technology, gorgeous soundtrack and fresh and refined lines, which will surely become more popular after it is put on the market.
"I didn’t know you were an artist" Mercedes? Cassia has been very worried recently because her lover is one of the best military figures in Germany, and the hero of the whole German people. His half-covered photo is still posted on the walls of streets and alleys, which is even more surprising. It is such an excellent man who knows how to write romantic love stories-God, you have created such a wicked man, so will you let us women live?
In addition to arcado’s own control of several important companies, the National Defence Force, and its own reinvested profit-making industries, Wuhuamen, including film, real estate, food processing and other industries, the National Defence Force military transport aircraft set up express delivery to its own engineering units to participate in the construction of roads and railways.
The movie finally finished, and the lights were on all around, and everyone stood up and applauded. Lillian, the heroine of the movie? Harvey hugged the director and cried excitedly. This film may win her praise from the German film queen, and she will become more familiar with the world because she took over this film.
Arcado and Mercedes also got up and applauded. After that, they will also attend the opening reception of the film together. This is also a social activity where Berlin’s floating society get together. But smiling, arcado saw Gaskell come in from the side door with his adjutant. As soon as he entered the door, he looked for arcado’s position. It seems that there is something to report to him.
"Excuse me for a moment," arcado said politely to Mercedes, and then pointed to him. Lieutenant Colonel Gaskell made a kind joke. "I just don’t like my leisure time."
"You have devoted your spare time to the German people, who will worship you like a god," Mercedes laughed.
"What about you?" Arcado asked with a smile.
"Me?" Mercedes smiled, "I, I already admire you."
"Thank you for being worshipped by you. I feel a great sense of accomplishment." arcado was said by Mercedes to be a little shy. He pointed to the main actors in the front row and said, "Go with Lillian? Harvey, talk about it. Maybe you can hear a lot of short stories from her when shooting. "
Mercedes knew it was time for her to leave. There were some things that she couldn’t and didn’t need to know. "I’ll wait for you" and then she turned gracefully and walked slowly.
Gaskell also came to arcado at this time and posted it in arcado’s ear, saying, "General, the British gray wolf sent back information to confirm our success."
"Those people are real ships?" Arcado narrowed his eyes and asked.
"It’s true that these people secretly visited the United States a few days ago. British fighter designers include Michelle, a famous aircraft designer of Rolls-Royce. According to our information, he is a British army to see several aircraft designers." Gaskell said, "But I still didn’t move in vain. Is it really worthwhile to risk attacking this British transport by hiding submarines?"
Arcado nodded. "Compared with our competitors, we have no numerical advantage. We can rely on technological advantages to make up for it, and we will do everything we can to delay the technological development of our competitors! Therefore, this action is necessary, and more importantly, we have succeeded without leaving any flaws. "
"The British Navy has confirmed the news that the transport ship sank. A destroyer of the Navy is still searching in the North Atlantic. Should we inform General Lei Deer to call these ships back?" Gaskell asked.
"well! Can let them return home, but the speed is slower. Haiduo drills escort warfare, which is a rare opportunity for ocean training. "Aka thought for a moment and nodded and said.
Not far away, Anna hurried over. Aka took one more look at her long hair, which was swinging because of scurrying, and sighed, "Alas, it’s really disappointing that things will be a lot if you don’t come."
"I’m sorry, general. Lieutenant Colonel Gaskol just got the news that the secret delegation of the Soviet Union has arrived in Berlin. They asked to see the general by name. You received them. Mr. Merkel said that this time they probably got submarine technology." Anna went to arcado and gave a military salute.
"Well, go back to the headquarters. I have a holiday this afternoon. Unfortunately, I am ready to be on duty." arcado sighed and then smiled and said, "I should apply for two salaries with President Hindenburg because the Great German Party advocates giving workers full overtime."
"General, if you need a rest, I can arrange for the Soviets to wait for a day." Anna said with a frown.
However, arcado’s diplomatic victory once again made him holy. Hindenburg’s plan to fight 50 boards each was dismissed. Instead, he unilaterally eliminated the stormtroopers. The police station sent personnel to seal up many Nazi party branches, but not all Nazi party party flag armbands. The stormtroopers were told that they were not allowed to wear medal armbands or hold high flags, which made the Nazi party suffer heavy losses for a while.
