Battle of the Third Reich
v5 Chapter 30: Entering the city (1)
Brouelle estate outside Paris, France.
This huge manor built in 1740 originally belonged to a French marquis. During the Revolution, the marquis and his family successively went to the guillotine, so this luxurious manor was said to be related to a certain giant in the National Council at that time. The “citizens” of the country received it, and then, after a series of hands-offs during the Napoleonic period and the Second and Third Republics, they finally fell into the hands of a French banker.
But now, there is a new owner here.
On the lintel of the manor’s iron gate, a huge silver eagle emblem was hung high, and guard posts painted with red and black stripes were erected on both sides.
The two heavily armed soldiers in grey uniforms watched carefully on both sides of the gate. They had the same armbands on their left arms, and embroidered an imperial black eagle holding an iron cross on a silver-gray velvet bottom. It is a new symbol of the empire's headquarter, and it also reveals the identity of the current owner of the manor, with the hope of Germanic revival, a new generation of German military gods, a great leader, the most powerful ducái in Europe, Dunkel Killer Butcher, Warsaw Murderer, Yin cunning fascist gang leader. . . The head of the Third Reich, the "dazzling" title, Reinhardt. Feng. Staid.
"I am very satisfied with the arrangement of the headquarters, my marshal."
Xu Junyiran admired a pair of oil paintings hanging on the wall of the corridor. The former owner of the manor had a good taste. These oil paintings embedded in the gorgeous carved gold frames are not valuable art treasures, at least they are all A hundred years old antiques, and some of them are the works of some famous painters.
"I am very happy to be able to satisfy you, my head."
Feng. Brauchit replied respectfully.
"By the way, what do the headquarters think of General Modal's report."
Xu Jun turned around and continued to walk along the corridor.
"Well, huh, huh, everyone thinks we should put more effort, we should let go of the restrictions on Model before, and give him enough autonomy so that he can let go and do a big job."
Brauchit answered.
"Oh, I think so too, my Field Marshal. The Commander-in-Chief can make a plan for this and put it on the relevant meeting to discuss."
"Obey, my head."
There was a hint of excitement in Brauchitz's voice. Xu Jun knew what the commander-in-chief was excited about, and there was a cunning smile on the corner of his mouth.
A head guard fine guard standing by the wall looked at the old and young German marshals curiously. The strange smile on their faces reminded the soldier of two successful foxes who had just raided the chicken coop. .
The soldier suddenly felt that his thoughts were rude. He hurriedly lifted his chest and shook his head. He must forget the absurd association in his mind. That was really ridiculous and dangerous.
Brauchit seemed to notice the strange behavior of the soldier, but when he turned his head, the guy had put back the kind of head that was unique to the head guard and stood upright with a serious face, staring ahead and completely ignoring the presence of anyone.
Brauchit thought that maybe he was dazzled, and the Field Marshal shook his head depressedly, and continued to follow Xu Jun. Looking at the head and the army commander who were walking away, the soldier finally exhaled a long breath, praised God, and finally recovered his breath!
Xu Jun and Brauch Qi walked happily to his office. The office was at the end of the corridor. It was originally the owner’s study and reception room. It was one of the most luxurious rooms in this building. The space was large and quiet. Very Suitable for the head of state to think quietly.
At this time, Xu Jun's newly appointed deputy army officer approached them.
"What's the matter, Major Chester."
Xu Jun asked with a smile.
"My heads of state, Marshal von Blumberg and General von Bock, and General Kesseling have arrived. Following your orders, they are now waiting for you in your office."
Chester answered respectfully.
"Oh, I know. I will go with the commander-in-chief now. You go to the telecommunications room to see if there is a new telegram from Berlin. By the way, ask them to send us a pot of tea."
"Obey, my head."
Xue Xie slammed his heels, nodded to Xu Jun.
"My Excellency Marshal."
Then he turned to Brauchich and gave the same greeting, then turned and walked quickly towards the stairs on the other side of the corridor.
"It's a good adjutant, my head."
Feng. Brauchi looked at the master's capable back and spoke admiringly.
"Ah, yes, very good, but I think it would be a waste to transfer such a talented officer as my lieutenant. I plan to let him exercise with me for a while, and then send him to fight The troops go. Look at Manstein, Chester will be a good staff."
"Everything follows your will, my head."
Brauchit replied with a smile.
"Head of State!"
The two guards at the door of the office saluted with guns, and then opened the door of the office for Xu Jun.
"Head of State!"
The secretaries who were burying their documents outside the office saw Xu Jun coming in and hurriedly stood up to pay tribute to their leaders.
"Continue to work, ladies. By the way, Annie, find out the letter that the Frenchman gave me. I want to use it now, that is the copy I asked you to print yesterday."
"Obey, my head."
The lady Anne answered excitedly.
"Very good, I look forward to your performance, ladies."
Xu Jun nodded to the female secretaries in a room with an elegant attitude full of nobility, and then the young and handsome head of empire smiled with a smile that was extremely charming in the eyes of the female secretaries. Open the door inside the office.
"The girls look very cute, my head."
Blauchitz turned quickly and closed the soundproof door of the office, but still heard a scream of a girl erupting from the outside. The army commander couldn't help but tolerate something.
"Oh, yeah, it's cute. I don't know what went wrong. What I originally wanted was a group of secretaries who helped me process the documents, just secretaries. I didn't expect Borman to send me such a crowd. It’s all just fresh graduates. But to be honest, their secretarial majors are good. You haven’t seen them type, it’s an art.”
Looking at the warm Meimei in the commander-in-chief's eyes, Xu Jun scratched his head with a wry smile.
"My head!"
When Xu Jun walked into the office, the generals who had been chatting on the sofa in front of the desk stopped talking and stood up to salute Xu Jun.
"Marshal Blumberg, General Bock, General Kaiserin, everyone, please sit down. Marshal Brauchit, please sit down."
Xu Jun returned a military salute at will, and then strode to the huge desk in front of the window.
After sitting at the desk, Xu Jun glanced at the group of marshals and generals sitting in front of him, then he set his sights on Feng. Bock's thin face.
The group army commander has a very majestic face, with a kind of sculptural fortitude in his thinness, and also reveals a fearlessness and firmness in his eyes. The army general’s demeanor was tightly buckled, with a knight iron cross and a blue Marx medal hanging on the neckline. It was the highest honorary medal given to officers during World War I, which was to let the most discerning military judges come. Look, it is impossible to pick out any faults from the general's manner.
"I don’t want to say anything about the question of Paris now. General Bock, you’ve done very well, I’m very satisfied, all the problems now seem to be here at the base camp, there was a communication error between the base camp and the headquarters For this, we must be vigilant. Since the problem has already occurred, it must be solved, and we must permanently prevent similar problems from happening again." Xu Jun said with a serious expression.
"This time it was a lesson for us. Thank God, this is not a battle, otherwise I really don’t know how much we will pay for it. But finally it is okay, this mistake did not cause any loss. Not only that, we have a bigger harvest, which I did not expect. However, this does not mean anything, we cannot be so lucky forever."
Seeing that both the Marshal and the generals nodded slightly, Xu Jun went on to say: "There is a conflict between the headquarters and the Headquarters headquarters in certain functions. This is a problem left by Hitler. Now that I am sitting in this position, It is absolutely forbidden to allow this strange pattern to continue to exist in our military management institutions. This is a very dangerous thing, and everyone should be very clear about this."
At this moment, the electricity on the table rang.
"what's up?"
When he was interrupted to speak, Xu Jun was a little angry, and he asked coldly by pressing the button of the deskphone.
"Head of State, I have found the documents you requested, and the tea you requested has been delivered."
"Okay, hurry in."
As soon as the words fell, Anne walked in with a document, followed by a serviceman, pushing a gorgeous dining car with a tea set and a few plates of pastries.
"This is the document you want, and this is the new telegram you want from Berlin. Major Chester just got it." Annie put the document in front of Xu Jun.
"What about Chester?" Xu Jun asked the telegram aside and looked up.
"He was called by Colonel Dougan. I don't know exactly what happened, my head." Seeing Xu Jun's face was not very good, Anne answered softly.
"Okay, you go out first." Xu Jun picked up the document in front of him.
"Follow your orders, my head of state." Annie respectfully saluted and turned to the door.
"Annie, wait a minute."
Hearing Xu Jun's call, the girl stopped, and she turned around in doubt to look at the young head of state.
"Thank you."
Looking at the bright smile on the head of the head, Annie felt a throbbing heart.
"It's okay, this is my duty, my head." The girl replied blushing.
"Then you go to work."
"What did I say before, Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief." Xu Jun gently tapped the desk with the document.
"You mentioned that kind of problem is dangerous."
Brauchi's eyes turned back from the door, and he answered quickly and respectfully.
"Yes, this kind of problem is very dangerous...I think you should all be clear."
Xu Jun found that the few in front of him still seemed to be absent-minded. He couldn't help but increase his tone.
Quickly put away the smile of the warm Mei, the four old guys nodded vigorously.
