Eric Adrian, who was far away in Hanover, of course, received a telegram from Friedrich Ebert, but he ignored it. In his telegram, Albert invited Adrian to rush back to Berlin to serve as German Minister of Defense, in order to co-opt Adrian's forces behind him for his own use and weaken the insurrectionary army to a greater extent.

Adrian had a well-equipped armed force of more than 2,000 people in the industrial park on the outskirts of Dresden, and another group was recruited after Adrian applied for the expansion of the industrial park. It's just that because most of the men of school age have joined the army, the number of people who have expanded has been dissatisfied.

This unit was originally used by the Eric Group to defend industry, but after a reorganization and reorganization, the General Staff was responsible for expansion and training in late 1916 and early 1917 due to the need for secrecy and defense. After Adrian's dismissal, this defense force remained under the command of the General Staff. The actual commander of this force was Major General Tim von Bodwin, Wilhelm II's military attache in the Guard, whose position remained unchanged after Wilhelm II's abdication, and continued to protect the industrial park, which provided large quantities of military supplies to the soldiers of the Reich's front. Even Paul von Hindenburg did not move the industrial complex even if he had many unpleasant quarrels with Adrian.

Adrian hadn't been back to Berlin since he returned to Hanover, and it wasn't until October 1 that Sylna gave birth to the baby that Adrian breathed a sigh of relief, and the family was swept away by the tension of the child's birth. The situation in the country is very critical, the location of Lower Saxony is very important, the terrain here is flat and there is no danger to defend, the domestic uprisings are frequent, the front war is tight, if the Allies take advantage of the situation at this time, Lower Saxony will inevitably bear the brunt of the impact. Augustus III's Lower Saxony was also in turmoil, and Adrian sent troops to suppress it several times before he drove the rebel out of Lower Saxony, but the situation got worse and worse, like a spark on fire. Friedrich Ebert's Provisional Government was also powerless in the face of the situation, and most of Poland, which had been a German-controlled area, was occupied by the rebels, and the clamor of independence resounded throughout the eastern part of Germany.

Paul von Hindenburg, who was in Berlin, did not stay in Berlin because he personally supervised the war on the Western Front, and Albert's repeated requests for Hindenburg to send troops back to suppress it were perfunctory. Albert, who suffered from the lack of military support, had to temporarily arm himself to fight against the revolutionary army, but found that there was a shortage of food and guns, so he found Adrian, although Adrian had been removed from his post at home, he still had influence in the military, and Brauchitsch, the successor of the General Office of Military Economy, was Adrian's man. But where would Adrian give him something, and he didn't even reply to him once, Albert had no choice but to give up. Just as Germany was submitting its pleas and negotiations to the Entente, Lenin sent an international support force to Poland to join and lead the local rebels, and a nascent Soviet power was quickly formed in Poland. Encouraged by this, the Soviet rebels in Germany reached out to the city of Dresden in Saxony after receiving Polish aid, and wanted to establish Soviet power in Germany.

Although Eric Adrian was in Berlin, he also received the news through the ghost group that the rebels planned to capture the city of Dresden after receiving assistance, and he immediately panicked, first reported the news to Major General Tim von Bodwin, who was the commander of the defense in the industrial area, through an encrypted telegram, and then asked a total of 900 people of the local garrison of Lower Saxony to rush to Dresden by special train overnight, and he himself sent a telegram to Albert, and threatened that if Dresden was lost, Albert would bear all the consequences. Adrian's private transfer of garrisons from Lower Saxony to Saxony could not hide from everyone, and if this kind of behavior was in peacetime, it would be regarded as a rebellion, but at this time it was already a national chaos, internal and external difficulties, and everyone was asking for their own blessings. The Saxony garrison did not prevent the armed force of nearly 1,000 men from crossing the border, and opened the door very generously. Adrian also finally arrived at the industrial park outside Dresden before the rebels arrived.

Tim von Bodwin was forty-two years old, with a muscular figure and a close-fitting khaki military uniform, waiting for Adrian to get off the train at the train station. Although Adrian was removed, the rank of marshal was still retained, and Bodwin did not dare to slack off.

Adrian was dropped off in the industrial zone, a tutorial route built specifically for the transport of goods, and after the Provisional Government formed by Albert submitted a peace request to the Allies, Adrian ordered all his companies and factories to stop supplying any supplies to the military. In addition, he had long been worried that such a situation would occur, so he also pressed a large number of arms to remain in his hands, and through several private transportations, this batch of arms was stored in the industrial park in case of emergency, and sure enough, this time the misfortune was expected by him. The Eric Arsenal was the signature of the whole of Saxony, which initially provided a large amount of military supplies for the Eastern Front, and then turned to the Western Front after the war on the Eastern Front.

Time passed quickly, and Adri sat quietly in Bodwin's office, which had been converted into a temporary command center, production in the factory did not stop, and some workers who had been on shift were recalled, thanks to the generous treatment of Eric Group's staff. When they heard that Adrian needed to form an armed force to fend off the rebels, many people signed up. Adrianton's telegram to Albert for help did not provoke the slightest reaction, and the rebel ranks slowly approached from the north and east. The temporarily conscripted workers and the armed forces of the industrial park were reorganized into the 1st Division of the Factory Guard with the assistance of Bodwin, with a total of 8,550 men, all armed with MP16M submachine guns, more than 3,000 MG-16 machine guns, 40 small-caliber guns, 4 large-caliber guns, 220 mortars, and sufficient ammunition. Twenty-two armed transport vehicles that were not delivered to the front line were used as pillboxes around the industrial park. Adrian really wanted to make good use of these 22 armed transports, but there was really no suitable commander, and Bodwin needed to command the entire operation on his behalf.

After being well prepared, Adrian was persuaded by Bodwin to leave the industrial park and secretly return to Berlin, accompanied by several key members of the Ghost Group who were responsible for his personal safety.

However, before rushing back to Berlin, Adrian sent a telegram to a number of people who, like him, were now in danger, with their lives and property at risk. The telegram was plain code, and it had only one intention - to invite people to join the Federalists.
