Battle of the Third Reich

Vol 6 Chapter 328: Parade (withdrawal)

As the last team of half-tonnage trucks drove through the viewing platform, the highly anticipated military parade finally came to a close.

But don't think this is the end. The following German New Year celebrations will continue until the next morning.

Although Germany holds a New Year celebration every year, since the Nazis came to power, this year's event is the most magnificent. The human and material resources consumed by the government have also broken the historical record, but this event is related to the historical glory of the Great German Empire, so even if it is invested more, it is worth paying.

The Nazi Party has always been keen to organize this type of mass event. It can promote the ideas of the organization and please the grassroots people in Germany. These talents are the most solid cornerstones of Nazi rule. Hitler will not be untargeted.

According to the originally agreed plan, after the morning ceremony, the German head of state will hold a luncheon at the Chancellery to entertain all foreign guests, generals and diplomats participating in the military parade.

After the German new head of state came to power, he rarely appeared in such social activities, especially in the past month, he has been wandering around Europe, and even senior officials of the German government have a rare opportunity to meet him.

This luncheon was a precious opportunity to brush the presence in front of the heads of state. Almost all the heads and faces of the German military and political circles came. This banquet invitation has already become a status symbol.

In the early years, the Nazi Party often sold such banquet places in the social circle at a clear price, and those who were willing to take out thousands or even tens of thousands of marks to mix a meal, of course, could not just eat for that bite, not endorse the Nazis from the bones. The party's philosophy is to use it as a political investment, trying to get a little incense with the Nazis.

However, the specifications for this banquet are too high today. Even the phoenixes and grandchildren who hold the titles of princess and prince can give you two tables for the future. Although the politicians in various European countries are not very complete, the people who should come are basically here, so any accident on this occasion will surely evolve into an international event.

Under such circumstances, who dares to make money in it, not to mention Himmler's courage is not so big.

At this time, several foreign journalists with keen observations noticed a very unusual situation. The expression of the German head of state when he left the court was too serious. From the distance, he could feel the bone-killing breath.

If the solemn and gentle performance of the head of state when he was on stage was like the grace of the sea, then when he stepped down, he really showed everyone what God is like.

It seems that I don’t know which part of the problem happened before, which made the head of state unhappy. What I can know is that no matter who is the specific responsible person in the end, it is obvious to be prepared to take a peel.

The head of state hurried down the ladder of the parade, completely losing the kind of calmness of the past, and his face was gloomy like a thundercloud in the summer afternoon.

He did not even follow diplomatic etiquette and shook hands with the diplomatic envoys who wanted to get close. Instead, he made a blocking gesture to the guard flag officer standing by the table, and then dropped the pile of embarrassing diplomats. , Quickly walked towards the Mercedes-Benz special car that was standing by.

Disenhofen opened the door openly, the head of state bent down to sit in the back seat, frowning briskly, and looking worried.

"Randolph, go back to the Prime Minister's Palace immediately. I remember that there are some important matters that need to be dealt with immediately." Xu Jun told Randolph who had just entered the driver's seat.

"Is there something wrong? My head." Dogen asked, holding the door on the other side.

"There is nothing wrong, Dougan, don't worry, close the door quickly." Xu Jun tried his best to make the tone calmer.

Now there are at least two dozen reporters up and down the stands, holding the camera and pressing the shutter to the side, the flashes are almost all connected.

"Aren't we going to the armory in a moment? My head." Disenhofen sat in the passenger seat, and he turned his head to ask Xu Jun.

The Berlin Armory is on the street under the linden tree, adjacent to the Spree waterway in the east, and Humboldt University in the west. As the name implies, this was once an armory and military factory in Berlin. The military factory was moved out in the early nineteenth century. The Prussian royal family was converted into a military museum, which contains a large number of precious war memorials and military relics.

After waiting for the military parade on the side of Paris Square, Xu Jun will transfer to the Berlin Armory, where he will perform the next commemorative event, where he will give a speech to commemorate the ruins of the German ancestors and promote the establishment of the State of Prussia The military tradition since then shows off the glorious victory Germany won in this European war, especially under his leadership.

This kind of scar removal activity is not suitable for foreign guests to participate. In the plan, the VIPs will be sent to the Prime Minister's Palace for a rest, and then participate in the reception banquet held at noon.

"I changed my plan. This is an order." The head of state answered loudly, holding his forehead.

Speeches like this can be delivered at any time, so why bother to join in the excitement today.

"I understand, I will immediately convey your decision." Dougan nodded and closed the door, then patted the roof to signal that Randolph could start.

Randolph apparently felt that the heads of state were in a bad mood. At this time, he sat in the driver's seat without saying a word, honestly like a good baby.

Randolph did not follow the head of state on the review stage. When Xu Jun played his way against Fang Qi on the stage, Randolph was on the roadside under the review stage, happily watching the parade, and cheering with the audience. Got an addiction.

Dougan really understands the character of this subordinate and wants Randolph to stand on the stage as a ceremonial guard. This is simply asking the guy's life.

Hearing the command of the head of state, Randolph turned the gear lever to step on the accelerator. The Mercedes-Benz armored car flew out of the Brandenburg Gate like a sharp arrow shot, and then turned left at the intersection to the direction of the Prime Minister's Palace.

"What's wrong? Where is the head of state going to?" Weiler asked Dougan anxiously, and Himmler immediately followed the chief of staff, looking nervously at the SS general.

"The latter event was cancelled and the head of state changed his plan. He seemed to remember something important and hurried back to the prime minister's office to deal with it." Dougan reported to Weiller.

"Important question? Did the head of state say so?" Weiler asked.

"Yes, he said that in person."

"So what about the luncheon? Did the head of state mention the luncheon?" Himmler interjected anxiously. If the head of state had a whimsy, even if the luncheon was cancelled together, it would be a big deal.

"The luncheon was carried out on time according to the original plan, and it is time to start diverting guests and arranging vehicles to send them to the prime minister's palace for rest." Dougan replied.

"That's good, I'm going to inform Goebbels now. I will leave the rest to you, General Dougan." Himmler wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then turned and ran to the stand to raise his head Goebbels.

The Minister of Propaganda has been paralyzed all year round, and even more so today, especially after the head of state suddenly said goodbye to him, he tried his best to pretend to be disgruntled, so as to cover up his uneasiness.

Because the preparations for the propaganda in the later stage of the military parade were personally controlled by him.

"Where did it go wrong? Is the head of state very angry? Is it because of the slogans and banners? I knew..." Goebbels dragged Himmler to the side of the road, and then whispered to the other party. He had already started to make up his brain before, so how to pray for forgiveness from the head of state.

"The head of state was not angry. He just suddenly thought of an important thing and rushed back to the prime minister's office to deal with it."

"Really, just thinking of an urgent matter?" Goebbel asked Himmler by the arm. Not to mention that the Minister of Enlightenment and Propaganda is not tall, the strength in his hands is not small.

"It was Dogen who told me personally." Himmler twisted and tried to free his arm.

"It turned out to be true, yes, nothing wrong! This is indeed like the approach of the head of state. He always put the country first. He must have thought of what is very important just now. Ah, what a great person, So intelligent and courageous, it has all the virtues of mankind in one." The Minister of Propaganda fell to the ground with a big stone, and immediately began to acclaim habitually.

Himmler didn't have time to listen to this kind of fart, and there are still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.

"I suggest you go to the Prime Minister's Palace now, maybe you need your help there, those guests have already started to leave. By the way, have you seen Ribbentrop?"

"I saw him just now, as if chatting with a British envoy." Goebbels turned his head and pointed to the corner of the stand.
