"History will remember us, not you accomplices of dictators."

Chapter 697 Steel Prussia

Something even more unexpected happened to Kohl. When all the politicians either remained silent or supported the decision of the German Chancellor, the chairman of the Social Democratic Party, Oscar Lafontaine, actually stood up publicly and expressed his support for the actions of the East German People's Armed Forces.

"Although they used to be enemies of socialism, these people are now working hard to maintain social order, so as to prevent the collapse of the German nation. They are the conscience of Germany. As for those hypocritical high-level officials, they have long since thrown away their conscience. Into the dirty sewer."

The most popular and dangerous politician in Europe spoke, which made Cole feel a little pressure.In the eyes of centrists and conservatives, this Lafontaine appears to be "dangerous and extreme", but the people at the bottom of the former East and West Germany, whose vital interests were injured in the reform, threw themselves into his arms without hesitation.At the same time, Lafontaine is also a thorn in the heart of German politics, and his existence has always been the biggest obstacle to cooperation between the two parties.

Lafontaine's proposition represents the demands of the traditional Zuo faction party: maintain pensions, guarantee wage levels, even increase wages, and increase the tax burden of the property-owning class.He hopes to increase employment by cutting interest rates, maintain exchange rate stability by decree, increase corporate taxation to provide social welfare expenditures, and avoid financial crisis by restricting capital flows.In the eyes of others, these actions appear to be certain policies to revive East Germany.

Kohl had to have a good talk with this person, and even went from the Chancellery to the Social Democratic Party's office and knocked on Lafontaine's door.

"Please come in." After responding inside, Cole pushed open the door of Lafontaine's office.I saw this German political ivy sitting on the sofa with a German version of "Selected Works of Mao" in his hand.There are some books spread out on the table, "Das Kapital" and "The Communist Manifesto."

Cole's face twitched in the face of these socialists' classic Bibles.

"Prime Minister Cole, you are here, please sit down." Lafontaine asked the other party to sit down very enthusiastically, and removed the books on his desk.He also asked his assistant to make a cup of coffee for Prime Minister Kohl.

Cole glanced at the books on the table, picked up the Selected Works of Mao, held the book in front of Lafontaine, and said with some ambiguity, "Chairman Lafontaine really fulfilled that sentence. Dangerous And extreme, and what about your recent speech, which is as dangerous as the seditious effect brought about by this book, can I take it as a provocation to the German Federal Constitution?"

"Why do I always feel that Chancellor Kohl's words seem like the government is threatening the free speech rights of German citizens?" Lafontaine approached Kerr and said word by word, "Or the Federal Imperial Government, which claims to be free, equal and human rights, Ready to do Nazi things? Set up a propaganda department to control the mouthpiece?"

"That's not enough. After all, we are still different from communist fanatics." Cole straightened his clothes and said in a low voice, "I hope that Chairman Lafontaine will stop supporting the East German People's Organization. They are a group of Terrorists. Threatening to deport refugees, launching riots and attacking government halls, no matter how you look at them, these people are thugs and executioners who incite national unrest."

"But what about the facts?" Lafontaine said tit-for-tat, "But the facts that everyone sees are that the police suppressed citizens, and citizens took up arms to resist the violent machine of Germany. Am I right? A federal state that has always claimed to be equal and free I don't understand that the government has started to worry about civil unrest, aren't you the representatives of the people?"

Cole was leaned against the sofa without speaking.

Lafontaine picked up the books on the table, walked to the bookshelf, and stuffed the books one by one onto the shelf.He also said, "Of course, Chancellor Kohl can also regard us as sympathizers of the East German people, but are you going to use the same method to arrest me? Or will I end up like Krenz? Going back and forth between courts and prisons for years?"

The last East German leader, Krenz, was Honecker's appointed successor and served as the chairman of the East German Youth League for many years. After the downfall of Honecker in 1989, Krenz only held the position of the top leader of the East German party and country for a short time. In December of that year, the Central Committee of the Democratic Socialist Party led by him and the political leaders collectively resigned. , Krenz also stepped down from the position of chairman of the Council of State. In 12, the Berlin State Court began to accept the so-called second political lawsuit, and Krenz was one of the main defendants. In 1995, the Krenz case was reduced to four Berlin Wall deaths.

"You don't have any problems left over from history now." Cole took a sip of coffee and said calmly.

Lafontaine said sarcastically, "There will be after that, or is it that your Federal German government likes to use the banner of East Germany's enemy to deal with its political opponents? If there is only one choice between the interests of the people and the interests of the government If not, I choose the former. We will not speak out of conscience in front of a dictator."

Cole paused for a moment, and it seemed that this negotiation was over.Lafontaine stood on the opposite side of himself.

"It's better to take care of yourself, Chairman Lafontaine. If there are unexpected events in East Germany in the future, don't forget that you are one of the chief culprits who instigated them."

Cole picked up his clothes and was about to go out, but was stopped by Lafontaine behind him.

"Chairman Kohl, I also want you to remember one thing. Germany does not belong to the upper class represented by politicians and capitalists, but to the entire German people. Your proportion is only a small part. "

"Under the influence of the Soviet Union, East Germany did not complete a thorough reform, but now, the people of East Germany will regain the glory of Prussia. But you are just castrated and dismembered by the United States, France and Britain, and you have no fighting spirit They are nothing but moths. They think they are the leaders of Europe, but they are actually cowardly and incompetent. Poland has taken a large area east of the Oder River, and you have lost East Prussia, Koenigsberg. The army is limited to defense and rescue. We even Without their own strategic air force, they can only shiver in the face of the torrent of steel."

In the past few decades, no one has dared to mention the spirit of Germany, for fear of being equated with the right-wing Nazi by the political correctness of mainstream society.

But this time Lafontaine went all out, his tone was unusually firm, and his face even turned a little red with excitement, "Remember, East Germany is the only orthodoxy that retains the German spirit."

"And the steel Germany will return to Europe, let them see the greatness of our nation!"

Chapter 698 Our Bastille

The Berlin police station was already packed with supporters of Colonel Jonischkis and GDR sympathizers protesting the arrest of the GDR leader by the Berlin authorities without any concrete evidence.Even if the streets outside the Berlin Police Station were blocked by crowds of protesters, no one dared to act rashly without instructions from their superiors.

The police station did not dare to disperse the crowd. The first reason was that there was not enough staff inside, and most of the people were on duty.The second is because they are worried that the more they are suppressed, the greater the resistance will be aroused.Now they have surrounded the gate of the Berlin Police Station. If they try to make any dangerous moves, the manpower of the police station is equivalent to courting death.

As a result, there was a silent confrontation at the gate of Berlin. Residents who supported the East German People's Organization held signs and stood at the gate of the police station, adopting a non-violent non-cooperation method.As long as the police dare to attack them, angry crowds will rush into the police station to rescue the trapped former East German veterans.

So a dramatic scene appeared outside the Berlin police station. Citizens surrounded the police station and confronted the police officers on duty standing at the door. No one made a sound, and the scene remained deadlocked.Until Klaus came out of the hall, he stood on the steps, subconsciously buckled his right hand on the holster around his waist, pointed at the besieged crowd and said, "What are you trying to do? Follow the example of the Parisian People's Revolution to seize the bus." Hell? Do you know where this is? This is a violent organ of the Federal Republic of Germany, a manifestation of German order, not a place for you to act arbitrarily!"

The people were not intimidated by Klaus's momentum. In fact, this person who had just taken over the position of deputy director for less than two days still seemed a little younger to calm down such a situation.

Klaus' intimidation had the opposite effect. As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd began to shout, causing all pedestrians on the street to stop and watch.Moreover, more and more residents were supporting them, which quickly blocked the passage of vehicles on the street.

"Release the East German veterans!" "Release Colonel Jonishkis!" "Shoot you executioners!"

The slogans kept coming one after another, and Klaus took a step back in fright. He knew that his continued stimulation might cause the situation to get out of control, so he asked the police officers on guard at the door to stop him first, and he turned around and entered the police station. He needed to do something thing.

Klaus hurriedly opened the door of the interrogation room. He pointed to Colonel Jonishkis and said to the guarding police officer, "Remove his handcuffs quickly, we need him now."

Colonel Jonishkis said with a smile, "Right, I said that it is impossible for you to suppress the people's resistance. I don't want to see the Berlin police become the target of the people's reckoning in the near future."

"Shut up." Klaus grabbed Colonel Jonishkis's arm and dragged him out, "I'm going to let you speak now and disperse these gathered refugees, otherwise I will let you know what It's called the sanction of the law."

"Is this considered intimidation?" Colonel Jonny Kiss answered him while being carried away by Klaus.It seems that the deputy director did not realize that he was doing a very stupid thing.That is, don't let a sharp and provocative speaker meet a group of excited people, otherwise the whole situation will become difficult to deal with.

Colonel Jonny Kiss was dragged out, Klaus stood beside him, and whispered, "Hurry up and let this group of people disperse, or I will make you look good."

Colonel Jonishkis drew a corner of his mouth, and mocked Klaus for being smart. He waved his hand to signal the crowd to quiet down first.Then he cleared his throat and said, "It's great to see everyone standing here, fighting for us poor people. By the way, I want to emphasize one thing to everyone, the girl who was hit by the bullet is out of danger, It's okay, everyone can rest assured."

The crowd began to applaud, paying homage to Colonel Jonishkis for his bravery.

"But" Colonel Jonny Kiss changed the subject, "there is one more thing that makes me regret, that is, the policeman who shot the innocent girl never got the sentence he deserved! What is this, the Berlin authorities The trampling on the law is a shame on our human rights and freedom! Now Prime Minister Kohl has finally torn off the last fig leaf and revealed his shameless face. You think they represent freedom, but in fact they are just replica Nazis! Enemies of liberty! Tyrants of dictatorship!"

"Look at these people, what did they do in the end? They didn't arbitrarily arrest our compatriots through legal means, arrested our comrades-in-arms, and even rendered the resistance organization trying to protect the people as rioters. It is nothing like the Nazi secret police Any difference, I think they will set up concentration camps and black jails in East Germany soon, and put any East German residents who dare to resist the authorities into prison, let us completely shut up!"

Two police officers tried to stop Jonishkis from speaking, but he punched him to the ground one by one. On one side, Klaus tried to grab Jonishkis to shut him up, but the other party struggled away , and hit him hard in the face with a backhand punch.

"They want us to shut up, they want us to become mouthpieces for applauding and kneeling for refugees, but as Germans, our consciences are not thrown down the drain. We want to speak the truth. Refugees and religion are not welcome to the German people. Crazy, get out of this land of Germany. If not, then please get the German government and refugees out of our land!"

Jonishkis pointed to the building behind him and emphasized word by word, "They are right. Today, this is the Bastille in Berlin. The wave of resistance will eventually come. Long live the freedom of the East German people!"

"Long live the people of East Germany!"

With the last note of Jonishkis, those who had besieged the Berlin police station began to riot. When they saw several policemen grab Jonishkis and try to turn him into the police station, the people finally became angry. up.At first, the first person strode forward, followed by the second, and the third, and more and more people ran towards the entrance of the police station.Klaus, who reacted, wanted to pull out his pistol from his waist, but was pushed to the ground by the people who caught up first. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other police officers raised their hands and surrendered to the demonstrators who stormed the police station.

Storming the police station is tantamount to igniting the flames of rebellion.

The conflict between the people of East Germany and the Federal Republic of Germany finally broke out completely at this moment!

Chapter 699 The people are immortal!

The police officers who dragged Jonishkis into the interrogation room were knocked to the ground with iron bars and wooden sticks by the first people who ran in. Some supporters helped Jonishkis to go out, while the rest Pick up the key to free other former East German ex-soldiers trapped in the guard room and free them from the building that symbolizes dictatorship.

Some policemen who were originally supporters and sympathizers of East Germany soon joined the ranks of liberating the retired soldiers. Soldiers rescued them.

Colonel Jonny Kiss was helped out of the police station, and Klaus, whose face was covered in blood, fell to the ground and groaned in pain. He finally tasted what is called the iron fist of the people today, and he was so beaten that he couldn't even fight back No.He could only hold his stomach and sob in pain.Beg them not to do it again.

Jonishkis grabbed his collar, lifted him up, and said in a cold voice, "Remember, this is what happens when you fight against the people. East Germany will not submit to any violent machine. Freedom belongs to the people." !"

"Mr. Jonishkis, what should we do next?" Someone in the crowd spoke anxiously, "The authorities will definitely punish us severely."

Jonishkis looked around, most of them were passionate young people, and there were some residents who couldn't bear the refugees.But they just need to vent their anger, but they have not considered what kind of situation they will face after the anger is vented.

"The future of Germany is no longer in the hands of tyrants, but in your hands. What you do now means what your future will be."
