Chapter 540: Heydrich
Led by the guards, Qin Chuan passed through the gate and entered a rectangular hall.
This hall is at least the size of two basketball courts, and the transparent canopy decorated with glass on it is above, and the sunlight can shine directly into the hall, Qin Chuan and the guards walk in it and look very empty, especially the guards' boots stepping on the marble floor to make a "Keke" sound and produce a burst of echoes in the hall, making people feel like they are in an ambush, at least Qin Chuan, the person who came down from the battlefield, is uncomfortable, because there is no place in this hall that can be used for hiding and using as a cover.
But that's just the beginning, as you walk to the end of the hall and pass through another door, you immediately enter a small circular hallway with only a dim headlight at the top.
This design allows visitors to enter a small, dark room like a basement from a large and bright space, creating a feeling of being caught in darkness and disoriented.
Ahead is a vast marble gallery twelve meters wide and two hundred meters long. This is modeled after the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles in France...... The most special thing is that the polished marble under your feet is very smooth, and if you are not careful, you will slip.
All of these designs seem to make the architectural mistake of being wide and bright or narrow and dark, and sometimes slippery.
But this was all deliberate, and Hitler just wanted to make the diplomats who came to worship him feel a little psychologically oppressive, such as that they had to move carefully on the smooth ground.
Walking through the gallery, I saw a large door, and two guards stood on the left and right of the door, apparently Hitler's office.
Of course, it didn't mean that Qin Chuan would be able to meet Hitler as soon as he came, he was temporarily arranged to wait in the next room.
"Captain!" An officer came up and reminded: "I suggest you change into your uniform first!" β
"Oh yes!" Qin Chuan nodded.
Perhaps due to the design of a series of psychological tactics at the entrance of the Prime Minister's Palace, Qin Chuan was a little in a trance.
After changing into a military uniform in the locker room, Qin Chuan felt a little more comfortable, so that he at least regained a little bit of the feeling of returning to the battlefield.
The staff officer politely handed Qin Chuan a cup of coffee...... The coffee is certainly not artificial, which can be distinguished by the strong aroma that comes out of the nose.
However, after only half a cup of coffee, the staff officer shouted at the door: "Captain, the FΓΌhrer can see you!" β
When Qin Chuan walked into the office, he found that Hitler was not the only one in it, three people were talking and laughing next to the office, one was Hitler, one was Canaris, and the other had his back to Qin Chuan.
"Captain!" Seeing Qin Chuan come in, Canaris got up to greet him, and then invited Qin Chuan to the table and said, "Introduce my friend to you, Heydrich!" β
Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and looked at the German officer with his back to him, and it was indeed Heydrich...... Qin Chuan has seen his photos more than once in modern times.
"Nice to meet you, Captain!" Heydrich politely got up and shook hands with Qin Chuan: "I have admired the name for a long time!" β
"Me too, General!" Qin Chuan replied.
Heydrich was a police general, so Qin Chuan called him "General".
"You know what?" Hitler motioned for Qin Chuan and the others to sit down: "Last time, it was the captain who discovered the flaws in the intelligence of the British, and finally made us win the battle of Sicily, this is simply a miracle, Captain!" β
"Canaris told me about it!" Heydrich raised his glass towards Qin Chuan: "And I also know that the captain has made other feats, each of them is a miracle, it is really amazing, what we need is someone like the captain!" Cheers to the best warriors of the Empire! β
Qin Chuan raised his wine glass and took a sip, he really couldn't imagine that the person in front of him, who had always wanted to put himself to death, was now sitting calmly in front of him and praising himself like an old friend.
"Captain!" Hitler asked, "I heard you were on vacation, yes?" β
"Yes!" Qin Chuan replied: "But the vacation time has come, I should have rushed back to the front line today!" β
Hitler nodded, smiling: "Sorry, Captain. I've delayed your trip, but please believe that you are no less valuable here than fighting on the front lines! β
"No, Your Excellency!" Qin Chuan said: "In fact...... Colonel Koch had also planned to delay my trip! β
Hitler couldn't help but look at Qin Chuan with doubts on his face.
Qin Chuan said honestly: "General Koch and I were ordered to form a team in Frankfurt to study counterfeit 10 pound bills!" β
Of course, Qin Chuan did not dare to tell a lie in front of Hitler, in fact, he believed that Hitler had known about it for a long time.
Hitler looked at Qin Chuan with some surprise and said, "It turns out that you are also one of them, why didn't anyone tell me?" β
"I'm just a captain, Your Excellency!" Qin Chuan explained: "No matter where you put it, it won't be eye-catching!" β
"I think it's more important ......," said Heydrich, "no one would have thought that our 'legendary sergeant' would be good at making counterfeit banknotes in addition to fighting, would he?" β
Several people couldn't help but laugh.
"At least one thing I'm right!" Hitler said: "No matter where we are, our 'legendary sergeant' can show his value!" β
After a pause, Hitler continued: "Captain, perhaps you would have preferred to see another man...... General Rommel arrived last night and should be resting in his guest room by now! β
"General Rommel!"
"Yes!" Hitler nodded: "My staff officer will take you to meet him!" β
As he spoke, he glanced at the staff officer, who immediately understood what Hitler meant.
Finally, Hitler shook hands with Qin Chuan and said, "Welcome to Berlin and enjoy your holiday!" β
Heydrich also got up and shook hands with Qin Chuan: "I hope to have a chance to see you again!" β
"I don't know how many days the general will stay here!" Qin Chuan asked, "I know when I can visit!" β
"I'll go find you, Captain!" Heydrich replied: "I will not pass up any opportunity to recruit talent!" β
"Please, Heydrich!" "He belongs to the battlefield," Canaris said, "and I asked Rommel for it!" β
"But he doesn't belong to Rommel now, does he?" Heydrich said: "So I want to try, you know, Kruger is much easier to deal with than Rommel." Of course, it depends on the captain's own wishes! β
Saying that, Heydrich looked at Qin Chuan with interest and added: "As the FΓΌhrer said, the captain will reflect his value no matter where he is, and I will be no exception!" β
