My Third Empire

After some farce, Congress finally completed a show of hands, and at this moment, Krupp and Stressmann, who were sitting below, had smiles on their faces.

A man in a suit walked up to the high platform in front of the hall, coughed twice, and loudly announced: Cough! Cough! Now, on behalf of the President of the Congress, I will announce that because of the vote of the majority of the members of the Congress, the Congress will make the following Decide!

He glanced at the surrounding parliamentarians, and then lowered his head to look at his manuscript. He looked very solemn and pious, and his somewhat hoarse voice then echoed throughout the German parliamentary hall.

First! Congress recognizes the legitimacy of the Greater Deutsches Party, the German People's Party is dissolved and all merged into the Greater Deutsches Party.

Secondly, 7 of the non-partisan MPs announced their membership in the Greater Deutsches Party, and 133 Social Democrats left the party, all of whom joined the Greater Deutsches Party.

Thirdly, Major General Arkado Rudolph, Chairman of the Greater Deutsche Party, Mr. Gustav Krupp, Vice-Chairman, and Minister Gustav Stressmann, Vice-Chairman, immediately became honorary special members of the Reichstag, with The right to vote and propose, this decision will take effect immediately.”

Only in my own name, congratulations to the Greater Deutsches Party for becoming the second largest party in the Congress! Also congratulations to the chairman of the Greater Deutsches Party, General Arkado Rudolph, for such an extraordinary achievement at such a young age. After speaking, the middle-aged man He put down the manuscript and applauded.

There was thunderous applause in the entire congress hall. The Greater Deutsches Party just showed up and was caught off guard by the old-fashioned Social Democrats, and won an unprecedented victory on the battlefield of the congress.

...

The German President Hindenburg and the General Command of the Wehrmacht jointly issued the following order. Accardo announced loudly on the headquarters campus with an order letter: Recognize the position of the Greater Deutsches Party in the army and support the Greater Deutsches Party in the Wehrmacht. It is universally spread, and all parties except the Greater Deutsches Party are not allowed to spread in the military.

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at the officers below and the soldiers of the guard battalion with his azure blue eyes, and stopped talking. He was waiting, waiting for the officers and soldiers below to give him an answer, to give him the answer he wanted.

After waiting for a while, some of the officers and soldiers below finally responded, Long live the Great Germany! An officer finally broke the silence and shouted a slogan.

Long live the Greater Deutsches Party! More and more soldiers and officers shouted unevenly. Soon, various voices shouting this slogan converged, becoming more and more tidy and louder. .

From today, the national army begins to implement a new standard of etiquette, the old traditional military salute is abolished, and a new military salute is implemented. The new military salute is unified to raise the right arm at 45 degrees, with the fingers together and forward. The meaning is 'Germany and its people and interests are high For everything!'. The salute must be chanted 'Long live the Great Deutschland'. The name of this ceremony is the 'Deutscher Ritual'. Accardo picked up the speech and continued his speech.

On his left, Gehr immediately stretched out his right arm, stood at attention and shouted, Long live the Great Deutschland!

All the officers below stretched out their right arms, as neat as a dense jungle suddenly appeared, and at the same time countless voices shouted: Long live the Great Deutschland!

At the same time, in the barracks on the outskirts of Berlin, where the 1st and 15th divisions were stationed, countless soldiers raised their right arms and stood at attention neatly, shouting: Long live the Great Deutschland! Long live the Great German Party!

Ren, who was standing in the stands, looked at Hulk beside him: Did you see that?

This is the army, this posture, this momentum, it is comfortable to look at.

It's not just these that make you comfortable, but also the 20 new cannons in the warehouse behind the barracks. Hulk glanced at Ren and made a joke.

I heard that the unification of weapon specifications and the simplification of logistical support were proposed by Chairman Akado. He is really not an ordinary person. Ren smiled and continued.

At the end of 1918, when Chairman Arkado Rudolph was the second lieutenant of the poison gas defense team in our regiment, I knew he must be a great figure. Hulk said with some sigh, he was already the regiment commander back then , and Arcador was just a second lieutenant. Times have changed, and Arcador has now become his immediate boss.

Chairman is certainly not comparable to people like you and me. You introduced me to him back then, and I am still very grateful for your introduction at that time. Ren glanced at his old friend Hulk and said solemnly .

Don't say it, the flag raising ceremony this morning seems to be over. Hulk waved his hand to interrupt Ren's thanks: There is nothing to be grateful for, aren't we brothers.

Yes, let's not talk outsiders. From now on, we will fight side by side for the great Germany. Ren also smiled open-mindedly.

The two raised their right arm together.

The people below also raised their right arms, and the slogan of Long Live the Greater Deutsches Party echoed again on the school grounds, which was deafening.

On the school grounds of the Wehrmacht headquarters, everyone in front of them raised their arms and became members of the Greater Deutsches Party. Akado smiled, very happy. His Greater Deutsches Party finally surfaced, showing its sharp fangs like a dragon.

Look at the newspapers! Look at the newspapers! The Greater Deutsches Party was established yesterday! Improve people's living standards! Become the most influential political party in Germany! A newsboy waved the newspaper in his hand and shouted loudly. The technical backbone here, who joined the Greater Deutsches Party in the parade yesterday, asked him to create more momentum for the Greater Deutsches Party this morning.

So he started shouting like this, and just now, he also asked a few of his friends who were selling newspapers to help shout together. Now the whole street is echoing with their children's voices.

Because of the decisive victory in Congress, President Hindenburg agreed to another secret procurement plan of the Wehrmacht. On this day, Arcado secretly purchased 60 P-2 tanks from MAN again. The money was paid for in secret government funds, saving Accardo another fortune.

The saved Accardo's private funds were entered into the secret accounts of the National Defense Forces by Accardo. In addition to the weapons deposits remitted from China, the National Defense Forces privately purchased 60 more P-2 vehicles. In this way, Akados A full 120 P-2 tanks were added to the two armored divisions of Guderian and Rommel, giving both divisions a bit of an armored division appearance.

The 25th Armored Division now has 100 tanks in Guderian's hands, which is more than half of the 25th Armored Division's rated strength (Accardo planned to have 160 tanks when he reorganized the Panzer Division), although Guderian's troops As the teaching troops of the entire Wehrmacht armored force, these tanks are still seriously insufficient, but they are not as stretched as they used to be.

The newly established 26th Division of the Wehrmacht has 80 tanks just after its establishment. Rommel, the advisor of the division, is using exercises to test the actual combat capabilities of the armored forces. This newly established armored division is stationed in Hanover, a famous German city far from the French border.

And Arcador equipped the 1st, 15th, and 22nd main infantry divisions with a new weapon, an 88mm long-barreled anti-aircraft/anti-tank gun, which can easily be used at a distance of 1,000 meters. It can penetrate more than 50 mm of steel armor, and can serve as the air defense mission of field troops.

Although only experimental, each division is symbolically equipped with about 20 guns, and they are collectively referred to as 88mm field guns (to disguise the true purpose of these guns, these German divisions are even equipped with 4 less 150mm guns per division. caliber heavy artillery), but these weapons were indeed equipped to the troops in broad daylight, completely ignoring the officers of the Coalition Arms Control Commission who were staring at them.

Another very new thing was not given priority to equip the German Army, the new M25 steel helmet designed by Major General Arkado Rudolph himself began mass production (the famous M35 German Army helmet in history), the first batch of steel helmets were new The 15 Hercules-class transport ships that were launched were transported to distant China, where they were equipped for Chiang Kai-shek's troops, which were in desperate need of armed forces.

It is also because of this order that Akado has the money to purchase tanks and new anti-aircraft guns and other weapons for his troops. It is precisely because he sold 50,000 helmets to China that Akado has the money to equip the German troops with 300 more ministers. range radio equipment.

The M25 steel helmet has also attracted other foreign users because of its good appearance and exquisite workmanship. Spain has purchased 100,000 such steel helmets for its own army. Arkado Rudolph, leader of the pro-arms party, the Grand Deutsches Party, became more and more supportive.

That being said, Arcador turned the Wehrmacht upside down again at the end of February 1925. More than half of the soldiers and officers in the Wehrmacht joined the Greater Deutsches Party. This unit is equipped with 180 new P-2 tanks, nearly 200 aircraft, and a total of more than 300,000 soldiers.

And before that, Arcardo had done something more important to his own destiny at the end of 1924, that is, he had ties to the Supreme Court of Bavaria, Germany, to hear the prosecutor's protest against Hitler's early parole. , so that Mr. Adolf Hitler, who should have been released from prison on December 20, 1924, remained in prison until the end of February 1925.

Although the Mein Kampf was still published, Hitler still received the sympathy and support of many people, but the one thing that Arcador cared about most, he did it, that is, the original Hitler was released immediately after being released from prison. The time for the reorganization of the Nazi Party was artificially delayed greatly.

In any case, Arcador had already shown his sword at the beginning of 1925, like a fierce tiger showing his sharp fangs - from now on, it will depend on what happened to the Nazi Party, the Social Democrats and the Allied Arms Control Committee. Accepted.
