August 16 at 10 a.m., Reichstag in Berlin, Germany.

At this time, the Reichstag was already crowded with people, and almost all the giants of Germany and politics, such as Hitler, Goering, Himmler, Goebbels and Hess, gathered together.

The French campaign was an unprecedented victory, and Hitler's prestige in both German and political circles and among the people reached unprecedented heights.

In addition to his excitement, Hitler did not forget to reward his meritorious deeds.

With a wave of his hand, Hitler generously promoted 11 generals to the rank of marshal and held a grand ceremony at the Reichstag.

Among the 11 field marshals, eight were from the German Army, namely, Keitel, chief of the General Staff of the Supreme Command, Rundstedt, commander of Army Group A, Bock, commander of Army Group B, Loeb, commander of Army Group C, and four army group commanders, namely Kruger, Liszt, Witzleben, and Reichenau.

There were three field marshals from the Air Force, namely Milch, Deputy Minister of the German Air Force, Kesselring, Commander of the Second Air Force, www.quledu.com No > Mistakes, and Spiere, Commander of the Third Air Force.

On the ceremonial platform in front of the council hall, the collar medals and medals of the newly promoted marshals shone brightly in the sunlight.

Underneath the stage, reporters from major German newspapers, magazines and radio stations clicked on the shutter of their cameras.

Eighteen cameras were regularly distributed in all corners of the hall, and under the control of the cameraman, they hissed and kept running, recording the grand scene in the hall without blind spots.

Goering's mellow figure is always indispensable on such occasions, and Hitler has not forgotten his close comrade-in-arms.

In terms of weight and status, Göring was the most heavyweight in the promotion ceremony. Needless to say, he will appear as the finale.

He received the rank of reichmarshal of the newly created Greater German Empire. Rank above other marshals.

In order to satisfy the vanity of old comrades-in-arms beyond ordinary people. Hitler also ordered an extra-large marshal's scepter and awarded Goering a unique Grand Iron Cross.

Hitler personally put on the medal on Goering, took a photo with Goering and stepped aside, leaving Goering alone on stage to be photographed and interviewed by reporters.

No sooner had Hitler retreated to the podium than his adjutant, Colonel Schmunt, rushed to his side and whispered a few words in his ear.

Hitler's expression changed, all the joy on his face vanished, and he pulled Schmund to a secluded corner.

"What happened to Heinz?" Hitler asked hurriedly.

Schmund saw that Hitler's face was clouded. I didn't dare to talk nonsense, and said concisely: "I just received news from the Italian High Command that the Poseidon troop transport ship on which General Rosen was traveling was sunk by the British in the southeast of Sicily, and the whereabouts of General Rosen and his two adjutants are unknown, and the Italian Navy and Air Force are currently making every effort to search and rescue them. ”

Hitler was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at the high-spirited Goering on the podium.

The corners of Hitler's mouth twitched involuntarily a few times, and he barely managed to squeeze out a sentence.

"Who else knows about this but us?"

"At the moment only part of the communications staff of the High Command and General Yoder knows."

"First, you shall go at once to the High Command and inform General Jodele that this matter shall not be disseminated without my orders, and especially not by Marshal Goering; Second. Call Mussolini on my behalf at once and ask him to do everything in his power to find him. To live to see a man, to die to see a corpse. Hitler said quickly.

As Hitler's lieutenant, Colonel Schmund was well aware of the relationship between Goering and Chen Dao.

"I'll try to keep this matter to a minimum until there is definite information from the Italian side."

Seeing Colonel Schmunt leave in a hurry, Hitler returned to the table with his hands behind his back, his face regained his composure, and he smiled at Goering's round back on the stage

After the ceremony, Goering and Hitler went into the lounge to rest.

He sat next to Hitler, and while playing with the marshal's scepter in his hand, he excitedly said to Hitler: "After the video of this ceremony is cut, give me a copy immediately, and when Heinz returns from North Africa, I will show them what he has missed." I want him to regret not being able to attend today's ceremony. ”

When Hitler heard this, his body stiffened, and he immediately put his hands behind his back to hide the strangeness of his body, and said absentmindedly: "Yes, it's a pity that Heinz can't see your scenery today." If you make a copy, I'll ask Goebbels to give you a copy first. ”

Listening to Hitler's words, Goering seemed to think of something, and grinned.

Seeing Hitler looking at him inexplicably, Goering leaned into Hitler's ear and whispered, "You know what? Heinz finally figured it out. ”

"What did Heinz figure out?" Hitler saw Goering's gossip on his face, and although his heart was full of sourness, he still squeezed out an expression of interest on his face.

"Before leaving, Heinz repeatedly told me to go to the Netherlands to help him find someone."

"Who?"

"It's her." Goering said with a wicked grin.

"She?"

"Yes, it's her, not him. Heinz is twenty-seven years old this year, twenty-seven is coming, will thirty be far away? You also know how much effort I have put into Heinz's marriage in the past few years, and there have been no less than 30 social evenings alone, but he is not interested in those girls, especially since the end of last year, he even told me that if the war is not over, he will not find a girlfriend for a day, and he will devote all his energy to the war, which made me so angry that I will have a heart attack. ”

If the war doesn't end for a day, you won't find a girlfriend for a day, and you have to devote all your energy to the war! Hitler repeated this phrase in his heart, and with each repetition, the bitterness in his heart strengthened a little.

Out of the corner of his eye, Hitler stole a glance at Goering, whose eyebrows were fluttering.

Why did Heinz encounter such a thing? How should I mention this bad news to my old comrades? The emotions of the old comrades-in-arms are now in extreme euphoria, and the consequences of not being able to bear the blow of bad news are really unimaginable.

Hitler made up his mind to keep it a secret from Goering, and a few dry laughs burst into his throat.

"When you find the one Heinz said, you must bring it to me, I also want to know what kind of girl Heinz is interested in?"

"You ask Heinz about this, what if Heinz is reluctant to show you his sweetheart? I can't call the shots. ”

Hitler squeezed out a smile from his fighting spirit.

"When Heinz returns to Berlin, I will definitely ask him to show me the girl himself."

As if in touch with his master, Goering's sedan rushed all the way into Karin Manor.

As soon as Goering entered the living room of the villa, he saw his wife Amy sitting on the sofa talking to a man, accompanied by the Counts of Faulk.

When Goering returned, everyone got up to greet him.

"You came back from Italy, why didn't you inform me in advance?" Goering asked in surprise as he glared at his partner, Remtsma.

Ever since Hitler decided to march into the Mediterranean, Göring sent his partner Remtzma to Italy to tackle the problem.

Remtzma, who actively lobbied among the Italian elite and, of course, paid bribes, and finally cooperated with the German Foreign Office to persuade Mussolini to allow the German-army to successfully enter North Africa.

Remcma was scheduled to return to Berlin in September, and now he suddenly returned early and without notice, and Goering was naturally very surprised.

Remcma scratched her right cheek and opened her mouth three times in a row before she could barely squeeze out a sentence.

"Herman, I'm sad about what happened to Heinz." (To be continued......)
