"So, you are ready to completely break up with England and France." Sickert, who was sitting on the hospital bed, quietly listened to Reinhardt's report, smoking a cigarette and laughing.
After listening to Reinhardt's embellished description of recent achievements and hype about the future route, Sickert just smiled faintly.
It can be said that his teacher was very clear about Reinhard's divergent way of thinking.
Anticipate the invasion of the Ruhr by the French-Belgian forces, establish a militia and SS capable of resisting Europe's first army, defraud 500 tons of gold reserves, control the situation of the Spanish Civil War, seize the family savings of the Childe Consortium, and establish an efficient
domestic production lines.
Reinhardt proved his ability with his own achievements. Apart from anything else, Sickert could not finish all the things he had done so far in his whole life.
In the eyes of other countries, Reinhard may just be a lucky young chancellor who climbed to a high position by virtue of being a disciple of Sickert.
Only the Germans themselves understand what Reinhard means to the suffering Germany! It is no exaggeration to say that he is a gift from God to Germany. Reinhard’s actions have proved that he is Germany’s treasure.
He is the favorite of the Germans.
When Germany was in a state of ruin, such a young man emerged from nowhere, put down the coup, reformed the internal affairs, and paid off the indemnity.
Internally, he gave every German a job opportunity, liberated the rights of every German woman, and assisted a large number of Germans in other countries.
Externally, he broke the political blockade imposed on Germany by the League of Nations, allied with Italy, a historical power in Europe, and sent troops to Spain, a long-established power in Western Europe, so that the impoverished Germany had the fifth largest royal reserve in the world.
"That's right, the opinions of Britain and France can no longer have any influence on us." Reinhard rubbed his hands and smiled: "When it comes to technology, they have been left behind by us in many aspects. When it comes to economy, Germany's booming economy
It is in sharp contrast to their sluggish market."
"Haha!" Sickert, who was sitting on the hospital bed, patted his thigh and laughed loudly. "I never thought that I would be able to wait until the day when Germany stands up again in my lifetime."
Upon hearing this, the corners of Reinhard's mouth twitched slightly at an angle that Sickert couldn't see.
He knew that Sickert in history did not wait for Germany's most glorious period.
The "100,000 Wehrmacht" created by Sickert single-handedly established the powerful Third Reich, but the father of the German Wehrmacht did not wait until that day.
Reinhard looked respectfully at the haggard old man on the hospital bed, and said softly: "Teacher, give me another week, and I promise to let you see a broader Germany."
Although these words made Sickert's eyes flash, Sickert did not give too much guidance and just replied lightly: "If you want to do it, just do it. I believe you will succeed."
"Aren't you afraid that I will drag Germany into the abyss of war?" Reinhard looked at Sickert doubtfully and asked: "President Gustav doesn't agree with my plan at all. Teacher, don't you want to
Do you want to know first what exactly I want to do?”
"It's not necessary." Sickert shook his head gently and said leisurely: "You are the student I brought out, and I believe in you. You will see no less things about war than I do. I have taught you
How do you control the war? As for how to face the war, that is your business."
Showing a proud smile, Sickert looked directly into Reinhard's eyes and said seriously: "About war, your understanding is even deeper than that guy Gustav. You are definitely not a war madman.
I'm sure. But there are some things that Germany cannot be afraid of war if it wants to take them back. Such as dignity, such as glory!"
Looking at the general who had only a short time left in front of him, Reinhard's eyes felt a little sore. He vowed that at least he would let his teacher see the day when Germany unified the German region, and let Sickert leave on the day he left.
In a complete Germany!
A soldier will die for his confidant! Reinhard bowed deeply to the German general who was the first to recognize him and affirm his abilities.
"Go ahead, I'll be waiting for your good news here. Although I prefer to be in my office, formally holding your report documents." Sickert finished this sentence with some pain.
Immediately, he quickly put on his serious look and said loudly: "If there is a problem, I will ask you!"
"Yes!" Reinhard immediately put his feet together and solemnly saluted Sickert with a standard military salute: "Students promise to successfully complete the mission!"
At this moment, the master and the apprentice seemed to have returned to 10 years ago, to the time when Sickert carefully explained the battle cases to Reinhard bit by bit and analyzed the strategic goals.
The difference is that today's Reinhardt has lost his immature otaku temperament, and Sickert is no longer energetic...
………………
In Berlin, in the presidential palace, Gustav was on pins and needles after receiving Reinhard's report.
Although in recent years, under the leadership of Reinhardt, Germany has completely stopped taking the Treaty of Versailles seriously, Reinhardt's next plan still made Gustav terrified.
Annex Austria! Reinhardt’s plan is to take over a large European country with a population of 7 million!
The specific plan that Reinhard gave to Gustav was roughly to incite Austrian fascists to riot and assassinate Prime Minister Dolfiss, and then force Austria to sign the "German-Austrian Agreement" and make Austria guarantee that it will always be in foreign policy.
Acting in accordance with the principle of recognizing itself as "a Germanic country", and stipulating in secret provisions that German and Austrian fascists should participate in the formation of Austrian government agencies.
The ultimate goal of this plan is to merge Austria into an "Eastern Province" of Germany and strengthen Germany's comprehensive national strength.
In this way, Germany could not only add 7 million more people out of thin air, but also absorb Austria's air force and army, which were not restricted by the Treaty of Versailles. Increase its gold reserves by more than 500,000 tons, obtain a full 1.8 million tons of oil reserves, and a large amount of
Factories and food bases.
It seems that this is indeed an extremely tempting goal. However, it means blatantly provoking Austria, a large Central European country with a population of 7 million, a standing army of 300,000, and two air force brigades!
At the same time, the League of Nations will not do nothing and watch Germany annex Austria and grow stronger, especially France, Germany's old enemy!
Gustav sighed regretfully and said politely to SS Chief of Staff Steve, who personally sent the annexation plan: "Prime Minister Reinhard's plan is indeed tempting, but it is too dangerous. This is
It's a huge gamble with Germany's fate."
"Mr. Gustav!" Steve, Reinhardt's right-hand man, responded unceremoniously: "As a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize, you should indeed say this. But please don't forget, you are Germany.
As a human president, you should do your best for the future of Germany."
"This is not a matter of trying your best!" Gustav, who had always been calm and steady, yelled out of control: "Reinhardt is playing with fire! Can't you see it?!"
Without answering Gustav's question, Steve just looked at the German president coldly with a disdainful look like a coward.
Seeing that the other party did not answer, Gustav met Steve's cold eyes and said in a deep voice: "In order to intervene in the Spanish Civil War, Reinhard has sent tens of thousands of Germans on his own initiative."
Gustav paused and then spoke in a heavier tone: "Every day, countless German soldiers sleep in foreign lands, and countless death reports are sent to the country. If this continues, how can I, the president,
Explain to the people at home? What kind of sanctions will the League of Nations take against Germany? Have you considered all this?!"
