Chapter 240: Into the Wolf's Lair

I still remember watching a film starring Tom Cruise in the assassination of Hitler, which is based on a true story, and the assassination location in the movie is in the wolf's den in Warsaw.

If you take a car to a small town called Grod, you will see a forest, which was absolutely forbidden to ordinary people during World War II, called Wolfshampe.

As one of the many headquarters of the Führer during World War II, the Wolf's Den is famous, and during the four-year Soviet-German war, Lao Xi spent about three-quarters of his time here.

I once wrote a poem to express my love for this place..This is one of the few places in Europe where I can work freely and calmly.

That year, he arrived at Rastenburg by special train and directly named the headquarters Wolf's Den. Previously, he named the headquarters of the head of state in Belgium Wolf Valley, and the female secretary asked him curiously, why does it always start with the word wolf?

Wolf is a pseudonym by which he worked underground before the beer hall riots of 1923.

Now turned into a tourist attraction, the headquarters is spread over a radius of about six kilometers and is divided into three safety zones from the inside to the outside. Walking into the core security zone, there are 10 forts made of reinforced concrete, the walls and the top are up to eight meters thick, except for nuclear bombs, no one is angry!

He came to the room where he lived, a fortress in the far north, a large room where military meetings could be held. I didn't expect the décor to be very basic, only a bedroom, a bathroom and a relatively spacious living room with a table and a few chairs.

You must know that in peacetime, Lao Xina is a master of a lot of money, a god who spends a lot of money, but he doesn't even want the wild flowers in the fields used by the female secretaries to decorate the office in the wolf's den?

These forts resemble some kind of primitive sarcophagus, without windows, where sunlight does not enter, and does not even ventilate unless heavy iron doors are opened. The ventilation is completely through the exhaust fan, but the noise is unbearable, and if you turn it off, you will feel like you are about to suffocate.

Johnson rubbed his ears with his hands, and he felt uncomfortable for a while, and he couldn't imagine that if he left it on all night, the noise would be like a needle, piercing directly into his brain......

Hey, it's not easy to be a leader!

The reason why it is famous here is because of its seclusion. Throughout World War II, Allied intelligence did not use it as his headquarters.

Before the outbreak of the Soviet-German war, the national airline of the Soviet Union had flights from Moscow to Berlin, and the Wolf's Den was even located directly below the route. Each building is covered with plastic trees, disguised as a forest, to evade aerial reconnaissance.

The towers of the radio stations can be raised or lowered, raised and erected in the air when in use, and lowered after use, and hidden in the ground. German planes also regularly take photographs to check for flaws in the forest.

Another reason is the movie played by Tom Cruise, on July 20, 1944, Colonel Stauffenberg, who was plotting to overthrow the rule, brought a briefcase with a bomb into the conference room and placed it under a wooden table near Hitler, intending to kill the elder Hitler.

However, the briefcase was inadvertently moved to the outside of the thick base of the conference table, and after the bomb exploded, it was this distance and thick base that saved his life, only slightly injured.

The purges that followed were horrific, ranging from Field Marshal Rommel being forced to commit suicide by poisoning, to Stauffenberg and other rebels being shot, implicating 7,000 people and killing 5,000.

The main reason why he was able to escape was the temporary change of the conference room, if the bomb exploded in the conference room of the original fortress, the air waves and shock waves could have left no one alive in the windowless reinforced concrete room, but the meeting was temporarily moved to a wooden barracks with three windows next to it, and all this may have been arranged by fate.

Later, this guy left a huge shadow, for fear that there would always be people who wanted to harm me. During his administration, he was afraid that someone would poison his food, so he secretly forced 15 women to serve as his drug testers, which is probably why he has been assassinated more than 50 times in his life, but he has always saved the day.

There are many scenes like this in the movie: white peeled asparagus, steamed and served with a delicious sauce, and the fine butter is hot and fragrant......

At that time, ordinary Germans were smearing diluted margarine on bread, and they didn't even have to drink coffee, and during all the hungry war years, a young girl named Gert was selected as a member of the glorious drug testing team, and the only surviving drug testing girl now.

In that youthful war, she, like many young girls, was destined to become an involuntary tragedy in the torrent of history. For more than 800 days and nights, tasting every dish, every bite is like walking on the edge of a knife, and the Grim Reaper does not know when he will smile......

Only when the 15 testers eat all the food will they give it to Lao Xi himself to taste.

Johnson looked at the dense woods around him and heard that more than 50,000 mines had been cleared out of the vicinity, and he had been searching for more than two years. Later, the government openly rented it out, and it only cost $150,000, and you read that right, it was $150,000.

You can have this battle fortress, what are you waiting for?

Don't miss the time!

When I returned to Warsaw, I found that the prices here are very cheap, such as the local favorite barbecue sausage and drinking, and a large glass of beer is about one euro, more than seven yuan. A large roast sausage is only more than six pieces, which is almost the same as in China?

On average, 20-30 yuan can eat a set meal full of meat, a Polish sausage, plus grilled chicken liver, grilled chicken cutlet, grilled steak and bacon, accompanied by turmeric rice, potato wedges and two salads, the portion can be eaten until you vomit, up to 60 yuan.

The price of meat products, dairy products, and fruits is cheaper than in China, and 1L of milk can be bought for less than five yuan.

Even if you stay in the state guesthouse, a night in the presidential suite is only $499. Some people on the Internet even counted the entire Warsaw scenic spots, and the tickets were not as expensive as a ticket to Jiuzhaigou. Compared with a few rich and handsome people in Northern Europe, this is really a paradise for dicks.

Restauracja Zapiecek, a famous restaurant for traditional Polish cuisine, where the main dish is dumplings?

In fact, many stuffing stuffing things abroad will use the word "dumpling", but SC Johnson never thinks that these strange things are real dumplings, until I see Polish dumplings with my own eyes, which are exactly the same as domestic dumplings!

The most amazing thing is that the dumplings of the two countries are not directly related, and when you taste it, you will find that there is a big difference in the filling of Polish dumplings, such as this specialty, which is potato and cheese filling.

The strange thing is that the taste is not bad, and it is completely acceptable to yourself?

The most bizarre thing is blueberries and strawberries, and the brain makes up for the taste of boiled sweet dumplings, and it was finally included in the list of dark dishes, and I didn't try it.
