Steel Soviet Union

Chapter 509 The head of state is in action

When his kind father Stalin called on the entire Soviet Red Army to mobilize and prepare for war at full capacity to fight back against the Nazi invaders who occupied their motherland, Germany far away was also preparing for the upcoming action.

Rastenberg, located 650 kilometers northeast of Berlin, is known as the "Wolf's Lair". It was the place where Adolf Hitler was most accustomed to staying on weekdays. In most cases, it was also the core brain of the German Third Reich. location.

I don’t know when it started, but Hitler, the head of Germany who held important responsibilities, became accustomed to a bat-like work and rest schedule.

Since the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, Hitler would often go to bed at three or four o'clock in the morning after reviewing all the reports and files for the day, and get up on time to go to work around ten o'clock in the morning.

It is said that being Hitler's chef was probably the easiest chef in the world for the Führer. Hitler's food was enough to make him look like a bird. He was almost non-vegetarian, but he only dared to go to bed at three or four o'clock every day, and it was even better than Hitler to wake up in the morning. How many people can understand the pain of the earlier ghostly schedule?

Although today's work and rest schedule has been completely disrupted, the Hitler of just over a year ago was completely different from what he is now.

During the days when the British Expeditionary Force conquered France, Hitler's mood reached the best state in history. His work and rest were not in today's bat mode but very regular, and there was no big difference from normal people.

In those good days that have passed, Hitler would invite those around him and senior Wehrmacht officials to sit down for tea and chat every afternoon and night.

The content covered includes but is not limited to the war on the front line and even Germany's next strategy after conquering the Soviet Union, as well as some interesting anecdotes that recently happened in the army or in Germany, and from time to time a piece of Strauss music will be played. Relax your tired body and mind.

But with the deterioration of his ordinary living room, Hitler now rarely sits down and chats with senior Wehrmacht officials. Guderian believed that the words of senior generals in the General Staff Headquarters that deceived Hitler still had an effect, but this effect was limited to creating a rift of distrust between Hitler and senior Wehrmacht officials, and did not substantially help the frontline battle situation.

Hitler now looks like a decadent old man.

His face was longer than usual, and his complexion was even paler than anyone else's. When he walked, he would stumble and stagger unconsciously, almost causing the crowd who were following Hitler to fall. The confidants and followers were worried about the physical condition of the Führer.

Serious problems are often caused by the outside world rather than the body itself.

Moller, the charlatan who was entrusted with an important task by Hitler, had limited abilities. Many historians and economists in later generations blamed him for Hitler's physical collapse, although all this was indeed related to his way of practicing medicine. That's a huge cause-and-effect relationship.

In order to demonstrate his superb medical skills and to delay Hitler's frequent insomnia and mental depression, Moller would fiddle with a lot of small pills in his studio every day for Hitler to take. When the insomnia was severe, he would even Injecting injections into Hitler, before he went to bed, he also told the leader to remember to drink a lot of sleeping pills to add a drowsy buff.

As time went by, Hitler, who was originally in good health, was gradually overwhelmed by these little pills whose names no one even knew. Not only did his immune resistance plummet, but the sleeping pills that were originally better than black tea began to no longer work. Hitler, whose head was a mess, would often lie down all night after taking a handful of sleeping pills with his eyes wide open like lanterns, and when he got up the next day, he would feel dizzy and not sure if it was a side effect of the medicine. .

It was another sleepless night. Hitler, who was tossing and turning in bed and unable to fall asleep, sighed. He guessed that the German soldiers on the front line at this moment were probably having the same difficulty falling asleep on the cold winter night as he was.

Hitler sat up against the head of the bed and reached out to turn on the light. The clock hanging on the wall was pointing to four in the morning. It was still a long time before dawn in winter.

Feeling that he would definitely not be able to sleep again tonight, Hitler accidentally saw the vial of sleeping pills on the bedside. This drug that can increase sleepiness but seems to have huge side effects made Hitler both love and hate it.

He reached out and grabbed the sleeping pills next to the pillow several times and wanted to throw them directly into the trash can. However, thinking that it might make it more difficult for him to sleep, Hitler finally put down his hands after struggling several times and had no choice but to give up.

Someone is standing guard at the door of the Führer's room at all times. This is one of the unwritten rules that has been set since Hitler came to power, even in the middle of the night.

The door that was originally closed slowly opened with the gentle pull of Hitler's right hand. The adjutant, who was standing at the door in a standby state and was a little sleepy, was suddenly awakened by a clever idea. It was really surprising to him that Hitler was not sleeping so late. anticipation.

"Go get my dog, I want to go out for a walk."

The orders of the Führer were as iron as a mountain. The adjutant who had followed the orders unconditionally before doubting them immediately began to act quickly according to Hitler's orders.

Hitler had a famous French Alsatian dog named Bell. Bell, who was very humane, would happily wag his tail and nuzzle his owner's legs whenever he saw Hitler.

The truth that the more people you know, the more you like dogs, was fulfilled in Hitler. The adjutant on duty who was following Hitler saw that Hitler, who was leaning down and playing happily with Bell, had a rare look on his face that he had been away from for a long time. smile.

Although the temperature in the garden was not as cold as the Soviet Union, a gust of cold wind still made Hitler shiver not long after he got out of bed.

Seeing this, the adjutant quickly put the trench coat he had prepared on Hitler's body. Hitler, who neither refused nor expressed his gratitude, was noncommittal about this. On the contrary, Bell, who did not often go outdoors, happily threw up like a child. Enjoy jumping up and down everywhere in the snow.

The winter flowers had long since withered due to the cold climate and snow. Under the cold and desolate moonlight, all that was left to Hitler was the dark and terrifying forest around him and the thick snow under his feet.

Hitler, who knew that he was prone to wandering when walking recently, did not dare to walk too far at night. When he accidentally raised his head and saw a scene not far away, Hitler's brows twisted into knots on the spot.
