Chapter 30 Old Nest

In the hazy fantasy, Lin En felt that she was wearing a German night battle uniform again, walking through the dim forest with a red ball on her back. The light jumping in front was gradually approaching. It was vaguely seen that soldiers wearing Su-made steel helmets and long military uniforms were sleeping soundly on the position with weapons in their arms. Several sentries were unaware of the infiltrators. Suddenly, a fire broke out, gunfire was everywhere, and distorted faces fully showed a state of shock and panic. The rapid emotions were instantly

At the same time, Lin En urgently pulled the trigger, picked up the grass and shot a group of enemies, but he didn't feel the joy of victory in his heart. The noise gradually ended, and he suddenly stood alone on the empty battlefield, surrounded by corpses, the sun shone through the darkness, and a sharp sound of metal friction came from the vicinity without warning. He suddenly turned around and saw the t34 muzzles rushing straight to this

Wake up, open your eyes, feel relieved, and fall into endless melancholy again. Everything in the dream is so familiar. Lin En recalls the past with bitter feelings, and those familiar faces appear one by one. The dead are gone, but many living people still don’t know what the situation is. Listening to the dripping raindrops outside the window, sitting on the edge of the bed until dawn. [..com]

Hee...hee...hee!

When the door was gently knocked rhythmically, Lynn had just finished washing up, and the troubles brought by the dream did not leave a clear mark of fatigue in his young and deep eyes. Due to his deliberate beard, his whole face looked more mature and vicissitudes than his actual age. This is Munich, the capital of Bavaria, a southern German city that was devastated by war and is gradually rejuvenating. Munich is famous for beer and is also one of the bases for the rise of the Hitler regime. It is now occupied and managed by the US team. The emergence of American soldiers brought a new atmosphere, but the city is not stable, but has become a "dark place" where right-wing extremists frequently appear. Since the end of World War II, it has been born here

A group of various organizations, the Liberal Revolutionary Party, the Revival Front, the National Revolutionary Party, and the Workers' Union, these names alone give people infinite associations, and time is like returning to the turbulent 1919 for twenty-seven years. Unlike the defeated situation of World War I, the military organizations of the Third Reich collapsed after the Eastern and Western Allied forces occupied Germany. The National Defense Forces, SS and even some police forces were locked up in prisoners of war camps, and there was no situation of demobilized soldiers fighting on the streets. The so-called party alliance was either led by some soldiers who retired or resigned in their early years, or were controlled by civilian forces. Most of their existence was not recognized by the Allied forces, and most of them were in a semi-public or hidden state at this time.

This time, from northern Germany, Linn did not seek to contact or carry out further cooperation with these political factions of different natures and positions and qualities. After all, the ultimate goal of these people was to obtain power that could not be obtained during the Third Reich period after the war. Munich was only more than 100 kilometers away from Nuremberg, and its convenient transportation conditions and a solid mass base had obvious advantages. After the empire's top leaders fled the country through the "Aryan Ark Plan", the largest contact point of the hidden intelligence network that remained in Germany and the southern headquarters were located in Munich. They were originally led by the power of the Gestapo, but these infamous guys fled across the border to avoid the Allied arrests after the war. Those who really stayed in Munich and avoided the intensive search of the Allied forces were all low-key and hidden enough.

In addition to laying the foundation for the Nuremberg operation, Lynn has a more profound intention to come to Munich this time.

The agreed knocking method means that everything is normal. Looking at the vase where the gun is hidden, Lynn walked straight to the door, stretched his hand sideways and gently pulled open the door. In the gap, he saw Handmark's mature and confident face, and also saw Tanze behind him who was vigilant and looking around.

Unplugged the chain latch from the door, Lin Neng let the two of them into the room, and then closed the door gently.

"Did you sleep well last night? The environment here is quieter than you imagined." When Handmark stood in front of Lynn, Tanzer quickly walked to the window and lifted the curtains and glanced out a few times. This skillful and cautious attitude was obviously obtained in nearly a whole year of training and actual combat in North America.

The twists and turns of post-war experience and the interaction with senior figures gave Lynn a new view and a deeper understanding in many aspects. "Trust" is one of them. Some people seem reliable, some are trustworthy, and some are between the two and need to work hard to achieve them in the corresponding way. Learning to identify and deal with these important interpersonal relationships is not just a way for politicians to survive, but it is also a compulsory course for soldiers to move towards success. Bach is a trustworthy person, but this does not mean that old subordinates who have returned from North America are also trustworthy. Lynn consciously put aside his old impressions to re-exist.

Make your own judgment by contacting, re-understanding and re-geting. Bach's subjective evaluation of them in his letter is also an important reference: Handmark's military qualities are unquestionable. After being tempered by overseas intelligence warfare and special operations, he has further become an excellent battlefield commander. "has an unparalleled military vision and judgment, and can seize the enemy's flaws and launch an accurate blow." Walrich served as a grassroots non-commissioned officer for many years. He has been meticulous in his mind, comprehensive in his behavior, and has a decisive personality. He is a brave and courageous officer. "Flexible in thinking and acts in the underworld, and is an ideal candidate for carrying out operations behind enemy lines."

As for Tanze, who had just turned 18, Bach did not give a very qualitative comment, but used the four words "brave, intelligent, diligent and reliable", which was also a kind of affirmation of the young soldier.

The best use of everything and the talent of people. Lynn assigns them to new positions based on Ba's evaluation and his own cognition. Handmark served as the commander of the team, Walrich served as the commander of the direct special squad, and Tanzer replaced Wolfrum, who remained in Tromso, as Lynn's guard deputy.

"The quality of sleep has not been very good recently." Lynn told the truth. He didn't want to waste his talk on this issue, so he immediately turned to the topic: "Have you contacted the Serot?"

Serot is a backbone intelligence officer of the former German intelligence agency. Don’t think that the agency led by Canaris is only responsible for intelligence collection abroad. Before the Gestapo’s power develops to the point where everything is necessary, they are the real "eye and ears" of the senior management. On the one hand, its technical departments try every means to obtain military and scientific information from other countries, and on the other hand, they supervise and protect Germany’s own important military projects, aircraft, tanks, ships and new guns that need to be kept confidential are all listed here.

"Okay, he's waiting downstairs. You're ready and we'll set off." Handmark replied simply and neatly.

"What's there to prepare? Should we have breakfast here or on the way?" Lynn turned around, "Marcos, what do you think?"

Although Tanze was still on the other side of the window, his ears were not distracted. He immediately replied, "I can do anything, you decide!"

"Then let's find a restaurant on the way, and also take a look, listen more?" Lynn said in a tone of inquiry.

"Okay!" Tanze's answer was not delayed.

Walking out of the gate of this small hotel, the three of them went straight into an Opel "Olympia" parked on the side of the road. When it comes to German cars, people often think of Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz first. In fact, in Germany in the 1934, Opel, the Bavarian Machinery Manufacturing Factory Co., Ltd., which made BMW cars, and the Auto Alliance Co., Ltd., which made Audi, were both the leading automobile brands in Germany.

The Opel Company, founded in 1897, has been positioned in the cheap car market almost from the beginning. In 1924, they built Germany's first mobile car assembly line, and the following year the car production reached 160,000 vehicles, and the number of cars was exclusively in the cheap car field in Germany at that time. Volkswagen only mass-produced "barrel cars" in accordance with the Hitler regime's requirements ten years later. German senior executives chose the Volkswagen brand not because of its poor strength, but because of its bloodline. In the 1920s

Opel's production expansion was so fast that when the global economic crisis broke out in 1929, it encountered serious economic difficulties. The Opel family had to sell 80% of the company's shares to General Motors in the United States. Two years later, in 1931, the remaining 20% ​​of the shares were also sold to General Motors. From then on, Opel began to enter the era of "GM" automobile companies and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Motors in Germany. From the 1930s

Since the age of time, Opel began to focus on developing sedans and has been insisting on producing economical sedans and achieved good operating results. In 1 year, Germany's first mass-produced Opel car "Olympia", was put into production. This new car left other competitors' similar cars behind, making Opel the first German car factory with an annual output of more than 00,000 vehicles. In 1936, Opel's "non-commissioned officer" sedans put into production were one of the pioneers of German sedans entering ordinary families. In the 1930s

In the period, Germany began to get out of the trough of the economic crisis. The emerging generation of middle-class people showed strong car purchases. Opel naturally would not miss this opportunity. So they designed a sedan that ordinary people can afford on the basis of the "Olympia" mid-range sedan. The car weighs only kilograms and has a maximum speed of 98 kilometers per hour. The biggest charm is that it is priced at only 2,100 marks, far lower than other competitors, which has made many German families realize their dream of sedans.

After the outbreak of World War II, the Third Reich government took over Opel's car production, and the decision-makers quickly stopped Opel's car production and focused on producing transport vehicles. During the war, the total truck production was close to 100,000, which made an important contribution to the German Army's lack of capacity to improve the degree of mechanization. In the late World War II, Opel's two major production bases were severely damaged: the Berlin branch was razed to the ground and the Rousselsheim headquarters was blown up half. After the war, the equipment for producing "non-commissioned officers" cars was dismantled and transported to the Soviet Union as trophy by the Soviet army. However, Opel was finally the legal asset of General Corporation of the United States. With the support of the United States, Opel quickly reborn in the ruins after the war. In 1946, the first truck after the war drove off the assembly line and planned to resume production of "Olympia" the following year.

In a small restaurant open on the roadside, the four of them had a very simple breakfast. Since the US occupation forces still implemented a family quota rationing system in Bavaria, the restaurant business was theoretically not necessary, but there were not a few people who came here to eat breakfast. It seems that the black market should be very dynamic in Munich. Stores can get basic ingredients, coffee and milk through channels outside the rationing system.

While huddling his head and without saying a word, Lynn pricked his ears and listened to what the surrounding German residents were talking about. Since millions of prisoners of war were locked by the Allies, not many young and middle-aged people appeared here. The men talked about the latest news about the progress of the war in the form of bystanders, speculating on the next trends of the warring sides, but did not mention the "Terminal Remaining the Theory" that has been widely circulated in Germany recently. After the meal, sitting in the old Opel sedan, Lynn and his team went around several times and finally drove into the abandoned factory of Bavarian Machinery Manufacturing Co., Ltd. in the west of Munich.

The once prosperous and noisy now only has broken walls. The Allied bombing destroyed most of the factories and production lines here. Before the demise of the Third Reich, the disassembled machine tools and equipment here were transferred to surrounding villages and towns for workshop-style decentralized production. However, after the US occupation forces arrived in Munich, all of this was completely over. The machinery and equipment became the trophy of the Allied Powers, and many were paid to the Soviet Union in accordance with the secret agreement of the Potsdam Treaty. From this perspective alone, if the attack on the heads of allies could be successful, Germany's current industrial economy might have been much easier to recover.

Following the guidance of a young man wearing a baseball cap, the car turned into the path between two semi-collapsed factories, and then turned again and entered a passage similar to an underground garage. There were lights on here, and the roar of the engine could be heard faintly. With the efforts of local residents, the power supply system around Munich had long returned to normal. The two thermal power stations could supply the basic electricity needed for the whole city under normal operation. However, Germany's rich coal resources were not used in the living areas of residents as the Germans wished. After the war broke out in the Eastern and Western camps, the energy in the occupied areas of the Western Allied forces was given priority, and it was common for the city to supply power on and off.

Including Serot, the four people got off the car and followed the guide to the depths of the underground world. Although it looked very large, its layout was not horizontal and vertical, but connected to each relatively high-end space by the passage. Lin En guessed that these were originally air raid shelters for workers to temporarily avoid air strikes. Later, they were dug through them to form such a relatively secret facility.

In a humid and cold cave warehouse, various simple tables, chairs, boxes and cabinets form the office area and divide different functional areas with wooden boards. In the conference room that can only accommodate more than a dozen people, a man of different ages is already sitting at the square wooden table waiting.

Lynn looked at the watch and found that it was several minutes before the agreed time, but fortunately, he didn't miss the matter because of breakfast.

"You all look very good!"

The familiarity between the Seroth and the people here can be seen from his greetings.

A middle-aged man sitting near the end laughed: "Looking at your radiant look today, can we understand that some of the recent rumors are true?"

Serot smiled slightly and then introduced: "This is General Galgo, the special envoy sent by the base camp!"

For the Germans who have lived in an occupied state for more than a year, "base camp" has become a distant noun. The people at the table looked at Lynn in surprise. The young man at the far end stood up first, while the rest stood up one after another, and his ears were filled with the sound of wooden chairs and cement floor rubbing.

Under the gaze of these tenacious entrepreneurs, Lynn raised his right arm with Kong Wu's powerful aura: "Long live the head of state!"

Some people raised their hands awkwardly to respond, while others stood there blankly, and the atmosphere in the room was a little weird in an instant.

Now, unlike the past, Lynn did not force everyone here to salute the head of state. He quickly put down his arm and said to these people who have not yet fully reacted: "Today we do not talk about parties or faith. There is only one common goal we pursue, that is, reviving Germany."

After saying that, Lynn turned his head and signaled that Serott would recommend him.

"This is Francesco Otto, the absolute leader and soul of the rebuilding of Bavaria Machinery Manufacturing Company, the founder of the Bavarian aircraft factory and the inventor of the four-stroke internal combustion engine, Gisttan Alto, his grandfather. This is Drente von Ike, the young leader of the Ike family, and the key figure in the rebuilding of Berks Bearing Company. This Katen Anret, a metal material expert, has rebuilt the first production line. It is worth mentioning that he helped several engineers who had worked for Rheinmetall to escape the Allied forces' search. This is..."

With the introduction of Therot, Lynn shook hands with these entrepreneurs who guided and rebuild the trend in turn. At the industrial gathering in Basel, Switzerland, most of the well-known figures were successful people in their old age, and the oldest here was probably in their early forties. Young talented people in their twenties and thirties took the lead, which also made people full of hope for the recovery of German industry and future prospects. Lynn, who has a future vision, believed it even more.

After shaking hands with everyone, Lynn took Handmark and others to sit in the vacant position. Although everyone tried their best to hold their heads up, the difference between soldiers and civilians was very clear.

"The war between Western allies and the Soviet Union seems to have brought hope to Germany's revival, but no matter whether both sides ultimately speak and or win a complete victory, Germany will be occupied for a long time in the future. Even if we are willing to endure the loss of part of our territory, the sovereignty and dignity of the country are still unavailable. Because of this, we can only win the true revival of Germany in an unconventional way." Lynn's words at the beginning are not alarmist. After the World War Germany rose from its descent and set off an imperial storm. Whether it was deeply hurt by the Soviet Union, France and Poland in the Western Allied camp, they all hope to dismember Germany to eliminate its potential threat to its surrounding neighbors and even Europe by dismembering itself. Thinking from the perspective of others, this is indeed the most thorough way to not violate objective humanitarianism. (To be continued)
