Battle of the Third Reich

Vol 5 Chapter 247: Return home

At a relaxed pace, Xu Jun walked out of the Waterloo Building. On the last step, he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look up. In front of a window on the third floor, Churchill was watching him, the two people's eyes met, Xu Jun nodded slightly to the former British Prime Minister, then turned around with a confident smile, and walked to the door where he had been waiting. Seat car.

"My head, will I return to the base now?" Muller pulled on Daimler's door and turned to ask Xu Jun.

"We still have time to go around the center of London a little bit." After completing a wish, Xu Jun's mood is now quite good.

"Follow the orders, heads of state, are you going to Trafalgar Square?" Disenhofen asked back.

"Well, turn around there, don't stop, I don't want to ask for trouble."

Xu Jun is traveling in secret this time. So far, except for some high-level and internal personnel, British civilians have not known that the German head of state has arrived in London. Whether it is for political or security reasons, Xu Jun should not appear in front of the British citizens in a hurry. In the past few months, he has been in the limelight and no longer needs to produce another news that shocks the world.

Mueller sat quietly next to Xu Jun. Although he wanted to know the meeting between the head of state and Churchill, the two sides talked about whether there was a dispute, but the commander was also very aware of the current affairs. He knew that these were not his For officers of this level to be able to inquire and know, a person must have self-knowledge, especially a gentleman like him, if he loses the protection of the head of state because of his misalignment, he does not know how many people Will jump out and knock him into the world again.

At that time, Goering was too self-expanding, and the result was contained in the man beside him. This young German head of state is extremely short-sighted about credulity, but once he finds out that you no longer deserve his trust, God knows what terrible things will happen later. More than once, Mueller heard from the mouths of Wehrler and Hans about party cleansing. This God's apostle was not a person who showed kindness to the enemy. The SS and the General Administration of Security have replaced almost two-thirds of middle- and high-level officials, many of whom were party aides and cronies who had followed Steder earlier, only because those people did not stand firm in the fight between Steder and Hitler. So he was detained for conspiracy group members and imprisoned in Sachsenhausen. Unless they were pardoned by the head of state, they were doomed to live out of the concentration camp.

"What are you thinking? Mueller." Xu Jun turned his eyes from the window back into the car, and he found that the atmosphere in the car was a bit too quiet.

"Nothing, my head of state, just recalling some previous things." Of course Mueller dared not tell the truth, and he was even a little shocked by the thought that would have appeared in his mind just now. This is simply disrespect for the head of state. Mueller must reflect on himself after preparing to go back. Although he is not a SS, he firmly believes that his honor also comes from loyalty.

"Remember the first time we met? I was forced to land on your position in Arras, when I took Dougan and Randolph braving gunfire and traversing the whole battlefield." Xu Jun said of the past, There was a emotion on his face. Although it was only a few months apart, it made him feel as if it had happened a long time ago.

In just a few months, he completed an almost impossible task. He cut off Adolf. Hitler's just beginning road of hegemony not only cost the incomparable dictator his life, but also took all his career and power into his hands. He took the throne of the German head of state while shouldering the mission that Hitler failed to accomplish. While mastering the extremely powerful power, he also assumed extremely heavy responsibilities. Hitler and the Nazi Party left behind a lot of messes that he needed to go one by one to clean up. You know, the situation in Germany at that time was not as good as that in Nazi propaganda. Reversing the situation to the right path is not an easy task.

Prior to this, he was just an ordinary history scholar. Without the support of the original biochemical memory, he did not even know how to take over the work. During that time, he really felt that he was a bit powerless. If it were not for those loyal men who supported and encouraged him, he once lost his confidence in facing the future.

"Of course I remember that day, my head of state. On May 21, I will never forget what happened that day. If you did not appear in front of me at that time, maybe now the 7th Armored Division and I have already No longer exists." Mueller also fell into memory. The scenes of that year flashed in his mind. He is now more ashamed of his previous rude thoughts. If the head of state did not appear at that time, the battle was The result will be very embarrassing. The 7th Armored Division lost its entire headquarters at that time and was already on the verge of collapse. Mueller knew that he would never choose to surrender, and death or self-sufficiency would be his ultimate end.

"I am also very thankful that I fell there, and I got a loyal and excellent man. Look at you, Mueller, the former battalion commander, has grown into a qualified commander. I look forward to you very much now After completing the higher command course, I believe that you have that ability, just like I am optimistic about Hans, I look forward to you in the future can build a greater merit for the Third Reich, I hope that one day I I can personally wear you the rank of Marshal." Xu Jun's sincere expression on his face spoke a motivating word to Mueller.

"I don’t know how to express my present mood, my head of state. I can only say that being able to fight for you is the glory of my life. I will never fail your expectations and be loyal to you and your great cause, even At the cost of my life, I swear by the name of my family and ancestors." Mueller was too excited to speak incoherently.

"I know, General, I believe in your loyalty." Xu Jun smiled and patted the back of Mueller's hand on his knee.

"My head of state, Trafalgar Square is in front." The expression of Disenhofen was also a little excited. He knew that he should not break the current atmosphere in the car, but after all, his duty is in his hands. This is his He must complete his work.

"Really, it's great, get closer, first turn around the square twice." Xu Jun said with a smile. The ideological work of the subordinates needs a gradual order, and the intensity should be appropriate and appropriate. Now this level is just right, and too much force will delay things.

This is the first time Xu Jun has come to Westminster, the political center of the British Empire. Trafalgar Square is an important node in the core area. From this square, a large group of buildings radiating to the west contains all important government departments of the British Empire. In fact, the square itself is not very special. Because of the relationship between the land area, the British architectural pattern has always been a bit small. Compared with the European architectural styles that pursue bigness is beauty and more is good Not on a level, for example, compared with the magnificent Versailles, Buckingham is only a partial palace. Compared with the Royal Forest Square in Berlin, Germany, Trafalgar Square can only be regarded as a street garden.

Xu Jun’s convoy went around the square twice, because it was still under military control, so there were no pedestrians, and few tourists, but there were many German officers and soldiers on vacation. Some of them are lined up neatly, taking photos of Nelson’s monument as a background, as evidence of their participation in the British campaign, or to be commemorated, or sent to their families to make them happy.

German soldiers can be regarded as the most loved soldiers in Europe. Everywhere they go, they will find a way to take a picture of a landmark building as evidence of bragging to friends and family after they return home. Especially now everyone has some savings in their pockets, enough to buy a cheap version of the camera for the army. Zeiss has done a very good job in this area. They not only launched a simple structure for some soldiers who have never used the camera. The point-and-shoot camera has also launched the relevant after-sales service specifically for the army of the German army. As long as the soldiers provide accurate identification, they can get discounted repairs and accessories services at ZEISS. Welcome.

The German officers and soldiers who took photos in Trafalgar Square that day would not have thought that they might have been fortunate to leave the trace of the head of state in their photos, but no one knew at that time that the high-end car that circled the square was riding Who is it.

Xu Jun looked at Nelson's monument and couldn't help expressing emotions. In any case, the unparalleled commander-in-chief is just an ordinary person on the battlefield. The bullets will not treat you differently because of your rank.

"It's almost time, go around Whitehall Street, take a look at the British Parliament Building, and then return to the base." Xu Jun raised his hand and looked at the time, thinking he wanted to speed up the game.

"Observe, sir." Disenhofen turned his head and looked at the driver.

"It's okay." The driver nodded and slightly increased the throttle. The Daimler armored car shone with fascinating paint roared through the streets of Whitehall Street in the political heart of the British Empire.

Looking at the magnificent or exquisite tall buildings on both sides of the street, a slight smile appeared on Xu Jun's face. I came, I saw it, I conquered it.

Finally, we still ask for monthly tickets. This month is about to end.

I have been asking for votes this month. I am very happy to have everyone’s enthusiastic support and response. I am very touched. There are so many enthusiastic book friends around, giving me countless encouragement and affirmation. The author once again expresses my sincerest sincerely to everyone. Thanks.

thanks for your support. (To be continued.)
