Is Rommel reckless? No! Rommel is actually a very calm person. He is brave and bold, but not reckless. Rommel's accusations against West are indeed biased, but this is also because he is outspoken.
A manifestation. If it hadn't been for his mouth, he wouldn't have offended a lot of senior officials of the Third Reich in the original time and space, leading to the final group attack.
To give a simple example. In the original history, when Hitler's motorcade was driving through the rugged port of Dinnia, Rommel, the guard captain of the "Führer's Base Camp", acted as a traffic policeman. He ordered that only
Hitler's car and a guard car were allowed to pass, and other vehicles had to stay put.
Rommel's action of blocking the car made Bowman, who regarded himself as the "shadow of the Führer", very angry. He quickly asked to follow him. However, Rommel was not moved at all. He sternly scolded the driver: "This is not a play for kindergarten children."
, you must do as I say." The voice was so loud that everyone present was frightened and did not dare to say a word. Bowman had to blush and ask the driver to turn off the engine, and obediently obeyed Rommel's command.
.
Later, when Bormann, who had long been dissatisfied with Rommel, saw the report that Rommel's staff participated in the murder of Hitler, he felt as if a lottery fan who had been buying lottery tickets for half his life suddenly won a big prize. He finally waited for the opportunity to avenge his shame.
He ruthlessly added the following sentence after the report: This is consistent with the content of other more egregious reports I received. Then, he handed the report to Hitler.
Rommel's consequences can be imagined. And all of this stemmed from his mouth.
However, Zhang Chengtian did not have the patience as good as Bowman. Zhang Chengtian, who was happy with his grudges, chose the quickest way - to beat the person directly. Of course, the outcome was not what Zhang Chengtian expected. He could not beat Rommel!
Even though Zhang Chengtian was a cadet from a military academy in his previous life. But compared with Rommel, who had been training on the battlefield for several years, the fighting skills Zhang Chengtian learned in the military academy were as weak as radio gymnastics. Sometimes, the most standard
Fighting moves are often not as deadly as the moves that veterans have figured out on the line of life and death.
Zhang Chengtian could have slapped him in the face and stopped (he didn't hit him anyway), but after the blood rushed to his head, he chose to go further regardless. And if Rommel didn't fight back like this, he wouldn't be called Rommel.
Fortunately, several officers around him quickly pulled the two away, otherwise Zhang Chengtian would have been punched a few more times. As for Rommel, he was basically not hit.
Zhang Chengtian, who was beating someone up, was beaten instead. This was extremely embarrassing to everyone, and Zhang Chengtian also looked furious.
However, when General Ludendorff came over with several senior officers, almost subconsciously, Zhang Chengtian's lifeless eyes became sharp and energetic, and his slightly swaying body became upright and powerful. As for his face,
The expression that was angry just now has become resolute and upright without even realizing it.
Ludwig on the side looked dumbfounded. God, his face changed faster than turning the pages of a book.
"What just happened? I seemed to hear many people calling the same name." Ludendorff said lightly.
However, this seemingly non-committal statement clearly showed his attitude. Ludendorff never mentioned the fight incident, but asked about Zhang Chengtian's cheers. This clearly ignored Zhang Chengtian's fault and emphasized Zhang Chengtian's contribution.
How smart Zhang Chengtian is! If I don’t mention my fault, then it’s not hard to talk about my retirement. No, I want to take some more action!
"General, that's my name. Reinhardt!"
Ludwig and other naval officers breathed a sigh of relief. In their opinion, Reinhardt should have understood Ludendorff's intentions. With Ludendorff, the army general, speaking out, Reinhardt would have less trouble.
More than half of it.
Don't underestimate Ludendorff's attitude. If Ludendorff doesn't express his attitude, it's really hard for a group of naval officers to choose. If they help Reinhardt speak up, the nature of this fight will become that of the army and navy.
There was a confrontation. But if we didn't help this little second lieutenant who preserved the dignity of the Navy by proposing Operation Rainbow, many people within the Navy would probably feel chilled.
At this moment, Rommel also felt something was wrong with Zhang Chengtian's answer. At least, he felt that his position was already very unfavorable.
Rommel glanced at Zhang Chengtian and stopped arguing. He was not the kind of person who was good at arguing, and at this moment he also understood that his argument would have no effect!
Several of Rommel's colleagues also saw Rommel's embarrassment, but they did not intend to give up the argument. After all, Rommel's contribution on the battlefield was obvious to all, and it was not in their interest to see an excellent officer fall because of his mouth.
in principle.
A lieutenant stood up: "Although Captain Rommel said something too much, but..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Chengtian rushed to say, "Reinhardt apologized to Captain Rommel. I was impulsive just now. I understand that Captain Rommel was just speaking out of anger because of his temporary anger. He himself had no ill intentions."
"
Before everyone could realize what Zhang Chengtian wanted to do, Zhang Chengtian immediately continued: "What I did just now was entirely due to my anger at Captain Rommel's remarks. But for someone who once broke through the defense line of an Italian division with 600 men and captured 9,000
I have nothing but admiration for Captain Rommel, the hero of the remaining Italian soldiers! I am willing to take responsibility for my actions."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the house was shocked. Many people who did not know Rommel before were shocked by Rommel's incredible achievements. And many naval officers who knew Zhang Chengtian were shocked by Zhang Chengtian's responsibility.
Originally, Zhang Chengtian was already in a transcendent position, clearing the name of an officer, and was protected by the highest army and naval officers present. At this welcome meeting, which was not attended by senior air force generals, it can be said that Zhang Chengtian had the favor of all senior officials.
.
Originally, as long as Zhang Chengtian didn't say much, Rommel would definitely take responsibility for this chaos. In fact, it is often natural to choose the scapegoat for an incident.
But two things that Zhang Chengtian did changed his position with Rommel. He expressed two meanings in his short speech. First, his apology showed that he was on the wrong side. Second, his statement
Most of the people present learned about Rommel's heroic achievements, which restored Rommel's popularity.
Ludendorff's eyes gradually narrowed. The young man in front of him clearly understood his intention, but he did not go downhill as he thought. In fact, he was only here to help Zhang Chengtian.
.There is nothing wrong with such an investment when Zhang Chengtian already has the advantage of public opinion.
But Zhang Chengtian's answer was beyond everyone's expectations. Is there really someone so noble that he sacrifices himself to help others?
Zhang Chengtian has silently recited in his heart countless times: "Dismiss me from the military, expel me from the military..."
"At that time, it was clearly stipulated in the military academy that fighting would result in expulsion. Are the rules in Europe different?" Zhang Chengtian, who was doubtful, decided to add fuel to the fire.
In the end, Zhang Chengtian's wish came true. He was fired from the Navy, but was arranged by Ludendorff to join the Army and was promoted to lieutenant. Everything stemmed from his last words to Ludendorff - "Karp even
