Chapter 227 Some people are happy and some are sad
The reporters on both sides of the street stood there blankly. In the camera, everything seemed so unreal...
Reporters from all over the world who were looking forward to it did not expect that the bizarre and fantastic rumors of streaking were actually true!?
Alessandro, a new Italian reporter who had just arrived in Germany, was rubbing his eyes desperately, trying to see clearly this dream-like scene.
On his right, even the senior who had heard the rumors a long time ago was stunned by this sudden scene.
Are you dreaming, or are the German top brass collectively sleepwalking?!
Is this an important large-scale event that the German government has been planning for a long time?
Are these official reporters now recording the remake of the island country’s heavy-duty video?!
If it weren't for those hairy generals with burly faces that often appeared in propaganda newspapers, and if it weren't for the fact that these famous generals with great military exploits had been repeatedly reported by German propaganda agencies, people would be so familiar with their looks that they couldn't be more familiar.
, maybe reporters will mistakenly think that the residence of the German head of state has been converted into a bathhouse!
It was originally a very exciting thing during the war to get up close and personal with more than 50 famous German generals whose reputations were well-known across the European continent.
They are all idols of this era, legends in people's minds, and protagonists who create and determine history!
However, a group of official journalists from various countries gathered here have now accidentally started working as gossip reporters. What is this called filming the streaking parade of famous generals?!
British and French journalists, because their motherland was at war with Germany, paid special attention to this major event, which was rumored to be once in a century. They originally thought they could send some meaningful news back to the country, but they didn't expect it.
, what we waited for in the end was such nonsense information.
Journalists from the United States and the Soviet Union initially speculated that Germany might have invented some black technology, and they wanted to take this opportunity to publicize it in a grand way to improve the country's deterrence. In this regard, they initially kept records of what they saw.
The mentality I heard. Now it seems that if this is really described word for word, is it possible to outline the density of leg hair of the generals?!
For governments like Spain and Romania that have established good relations with Germany, the main job of the reporters they send is to record the strong side of Germany and increase the recognition of the country's alliance with Germany.
If what happened today were reported back, it is estimated that the first impression the Chinese people would have of Germany would not be that of being iron-blooded and powerful, but would be more of a funny and interesting one.
In this case, reporters from Italy responded the fastest.
"Alessandro! Don't be stunned." The senior Italian reporter quickly focused the camera, grabbed Alessandro by the collar and said: "This is explosive news, we must record it properly!"
In an instant, the senior Italian reporter even planned the central theme of the report: In this world war that had just begun, without the German Third Reich, it would only be filled with blood and killings - and
The existence of the German Third Reich added some comedy to the otherwise brutal war.
Although the British and French forces showed no signs of attack, they had declared war on Germany after all.
As a country at war, the Germans still have the heart to hold a streaking parade. How cruel is this?!
"My camera has adjusted its focus before and is ready to take pictures at any time." Alessandro came back to his senses and agreed.
Following the lead of the Italians, reporters from other countries also returned to work. Although the news was very different from their expectations, it was still sensational news after all.
As a reporter, nothing is more important than reporting big news like this!
"I have only one request, and that is to follow my pace and don't hold me back!"
These words, which were originally very domineering, were now extremely funny in Reinhardt's mouth.
If other leaders say this, they probably mean not to fail to implement the strategic direction they have set, which is to symbolically hold back.
But what Reinhard is saying now is purely to stop the generals in the parade from breaking up and to "keep up with the pace" in the true sense!!!
............
"Is there no reply from Germany yet?" In Helsinki, the capital of Finland, Mannerheim looked anxious when he received news of the Soviet army's massive attack.
Colonel Silasvo has already set off to the front line to take charge. Next, as the only marshal in Finland, Mannerheim is about to rush to the front line to stabilize the morale of the troops.
On this occasion of departure, what Mannerheim hopes most is to get a strong country that he can count on to make a commitment to assist Finland...
"Marshal, officials from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs replied that the domestic high-level officials are not at their posts at all, and they will have to wait until they return to their posts before they can reply to us. Also, they said that due to busy affairs, all diplomatic matters have to be canceled in the past three months.
According to regulations, you must first submit an application to the relevant German department, and only after approval can it be submitted to the senior management.”
The confidential secretary's words stunned Mannerheim, who was waiting eagerly.
Not at work? What kind of big deal are Germany’s senior staff leaving their posts en masse!?
Submitted the application? How many months and years did it take for you to wait for approval?!
"In the past three months..." Mannerheim said with a wry smile: "Whether we can last three months is still unknown! What on earth is keeping them so busy, and they are all running naked together!
?”
The confidential secretary knew that Mannerheim's remarks about streaking were just to vent his temper, so he conveniently did not answer the call.
For a mature and calm marshal like Mannerheim to curse such bizarre swear words as running naked, it shows that the marshal is very anxious now.
After yelling and yelling, Mannerheim also felt that he had lost his temper. Cursing high-level officials of other countries for running around naked was indeed outrageous and went too far.
"Forget it, it seems that we won't be able to wait for help in a short time." Mannerheim calmly analyzed: "We can't just ask for help from big countries, such as Sweden, Norway, Denmark and other countries, as well as our foreign countries.
Immigrants, find as many troops as you can find. At the same time, launch a nationwide mobilization and do everything possible to expand the troops."
After all, Finland is still a small country. For this country, the most lacking thing is population. Insufficient population means low military strength. Therefore, the first self-rescue plan that Mannerheim thought of was to do everything possible to find military strength.
With the total military assistance of 211 million Finnish marks provided by Western countries to Finland in recent years, plus the extensive airport network built by Germany for the Finnish Air Force and the air force tactics taught by Germany, as well as the outstanding officers trained by German military instructors for Finland
, Mannerheim believed that Finland was no longer the weak military country it was at the beginning of independence.
As long as it can inflict pain on the Soviets and then receive follow-up international assistance, Finland will never die!
