Battle of the Third Reich

v6 Chapter 69: meet

The Vatican City has no walls in the direction of St. Peter’s Square, and it is completely open to the city of Rome. You can drive directly into the St. Peter’s Square along the Concorde Avenue. . The newest drive out of Concorde Avenue as quickly as possible. The head motorcycles of the convoy are divided into two groups, which are parked on both sides of the entrance of the circular colonnade.

It was followed by a truck carrying soldiers of the Guardian Flag, which also did not enter St. Peter’s Square, but parked in the driveway of the majestic Colonnade Road on the east side of the square. A team of guard flag soldiers in black parade dresses jumped out of the carriage quickly under the urging of noncommissioned officers. Then they lined up neatly and stepped into St. Peter's Square.

Seventy-five heads of guards and soldiers lined up on the left hand side of the ceremonial guard of the Swiss Guard of the Holy See. The black steel helmet shone with cold light, and the 98k ceremonial rifle with a bayonet was next to the boot.

"This is the first time the Vatican has allowed foreign teams to enter this square since the founding of the Vatican." A pope full-time priest whispered to his companions.

"By definition, they are the private guards of the German heads of state, and are not considered to be the real army." The spokesman was a domestic dean wearing a black robes.

"This lord has now conquered the whole of Europe, and Germany may become the next Holy Rome in his hands." A cardinal priest stroked the beads on his wrist and said solemnly.

"If it is as you said, we may be witnessing a piece of history today. But it is not as easy as imagined to rebuild the Holy Rome. This lord is still a long way to go." A Cardinal The bishop shook his head and sighed.

In order to allow time for the ceremonial preparation, Xu Jun’s Mercedes Benz slowed down deliberately. As a result, a group of Italian citizens waiting on the Concorde Avenue were cheaper. They saluted the handsome German head of state and kept preparing. Flowers and colored paper are thrown into the cab of the convertible.

The citizens of Rome showed extraordinary enthusiasm, but they put great pressure on the head guards. Captain Stark stood on the pedal with the door of the car, and colorful shredded paper and various petals spilled on him.

Although an Italian gendarme stands every few steps along the street, the German guards in the front and rear guard cars are still watching the crowd on both sides with vigilance. They dare not underestimate these Italians. They seem to be born with Assassination specialization.

Italy has been rich in assassins in history, and assassinations in the Roman era have been endless. Especially when the papal kingdom ruled Apennine, the entire Europe exudes a smell of conspiracy. (Weirler: "I heard that the highest-ranking assassin in Italy can sweep a thousand armies with a sleeved sword." Xu Jun: "Where is this assassin, basically a German Berserker." (□′)┻ ━┻”)

"Keep smiling, Weierle, you look too nervous." The head of state, with a bright smile on his face, waved frequently to the enthusiastic crowd outside the car.

"Sorry, my head." Weirler's stretched face hardened a smile.

"We're almost there. St. Peter's Basilica is in front of us." Xu Jun tilted his head and gently pressed Weierle's ribs with his elbows.

"Ah, yes, my head, there is the Vatican City." Weierle replied respectfully.

The front guard car and other vehicles were parked outside the colonnade. Only Xu Jun’s Mercedes-Benz 770k drove into St. Peter’s Square from the entrance of the colonnade. This is also the result of consultation with the Vatican. Leave a little face, can not be too arrogant.

"Salute!" Stark jumped off the pedal and quickly ran to the guard of honor, withdrawing the saber and standing upright.

"Salute!" Swiss guards in Renaissance-style uniforms stood upright under the command of the captain. The guards raised their sharp halberds and paid their attention to the German head of state who was walking down the car.

In the sound of welcome music played by the Holy See band, the German head of state walked with grace to the highest bishop of the Catholic Church, the patriarch of the Christian world, the servant of God in the world, the current Pope Pius XII.

"Welcome to the Vatican City, the German Head of State." Pius XII extended his right hand to Xu Jun.

Seeing this movement of the pope, the large and small bishops standing on both sides began to become nervous, and many people even held their breaths and stared at Xu Jun who stepped forward.

"It's an honor to be able to see you, under the crown." Xu Jun reached out and took the pope's hand.

The look on Pius XII's face changed slightly, but then a gentle smile appeared.

This is a temptation made by the Pope. If Xu Jun is a devout believer, he should bow his head and lightly kiss the right ring worn on his right hand, paying tribute to him and the Holy See.

Each Pope will cast a personal ring of his own right when he succeeds to the throne. The ring is made of pure gold, and the ring is carved with the pattern of Peter’s fishing passed on from generation to generation, because each pope nominally uses The successor of Rome's first Pope Peter himself claimed that he used this pattern to declare his power.

Therefore, this ring is called the "Fishery Human Rights Ring" or "Peter's Right Ring". It is a personal symbol of the Pope. Every pope uses this ring as a personal seal when issuing personal letters and orders from the Holy See. , Affixed to the seal seal of the letter or the lead seal of the official document lanyard.

After each pope's death, his ordination council was crushed under the supervision of the Holy See's property manager, to avoid being used by others to seal forged documents before the new pope was elected.

In addition to the general greetings and salutes, the right to kiss also has a hidden political meaning behind it, that is, in the Christian world, this is also regarded as a sign of the kisser's surrender to the Holy See.

Xu Jun hadn’t studied religion very much before, but there were many experts in this field in the Nazi Party, especially Himmler who raised a large group of people, so he had long received professional tips. Care must be taken everywhere when contacting etiquette organizations.

The results obtained by the Holy See for the first time were obviously disappointing them. The young man, who was called "the apostle of God" by the world, does not seem to be a devout person as they had imagined.

But there is nothing strange about this. The Holy See has stood for thousands of years. In the past, I don’t know how many tyrants and tyrants I have ever seen. Among them, there are beasts in human skin, and there are many real saints who are compassionate, but the Holy See They do not care whether they are personally pious or not, only to see if they can contribute to the development of the Holy See. As long as it is beneficial to the development of the Holy See, even if you once had **** sins in your hands, then you only need to be pious and ashamed in front of the Holy God to receive God's mercy and forgiveness.

"It has been seven years since the last meeting. I didn't expect that we would meet again after seven years, except that I have become the pope, and you have become the head of state of Germany." Pius XII smiled and released Xu Hand.

"Yeah, when I look back now, I can't help feeling that the fate of life is really wonderful." Xu Jun withdrew his hand and took the scepter from his left hand.

"Everything is God's will, and all glory belongs to the Lord." The Pope turned sideways, making an invitation gesture.

"You are right. Under the crown, everything is God's arrangement." Xu Jun raised his head and smiled incredibly bright.

"Come with me, honorable head of state, the Vatican today specially prepared a mass for you." The pope opened his hand.

"It makes me feel extremely honored, under the crown." Xu Jun elegantly slightly lowered.

The Pope turned around and took the lead towards the majestic St. Peter's Basilica behind him, followed by a group of priests and priests, and two juvenile assistants who carried the poncho's hem for the Pope.

The papal band on the side played a melodious and holy music. The priests and young monks of the choir lined up in two teams and sang hymns in unison.

Xu Jun turned his head to look at the colonnade behind him, and then looked at the SS players lined up on the side.

"It looks like a good start, Weierle." The German Head of State squeezed his eyes at Weierle, and then strode to the cardinal who guided him, walking towards the door of the church.
