In the early hours of November 3rd, Kurt? Feng? Schleicher was captured in his command center, and the remnants of the 19th Army of the Albert "government" surrendered en masse to the National Army. The deafening news soon reached Berlin. When the Cabinet Secretary read the message to him word for word, Albert seemed to have expected it, and his expression was calm and silent for a long time. The cabinet members wanted to hear what he had to say, but Albert only waved his hand lightly, motioning for the guards and the cabinet members to go out.

It was very cold in Berlin in winter, and after a few days of wind, I finally saw the snow, and Albert loved the snow, but he was always not interested in these days, and although he had expected it to be today, the cabinet members still felt some pity in their hearts when they first read the telegram. His government has run out of troops to compete with the Nationalists, let alone the ability to make trouble.

He pushed open the window, which had been closed for days, let out a long sigh, and began to take in the snow outside.

The layer of snow on the roof was like a thick layer of cotton wool; The white snow on the ground is like pure jade; The white snow on the branches of the trees is like the silver flowers in mythological stories; It's beautiful, it's pure, it's charming, but it's also like there's something missing. What's missing? He couldn't remember, but he always felt that something was missing.

The cabinet members came again and asked him if tomorrow's meeting would go on as scheduled, and he thought about it and said that it would be open, and he wanted to have an explanation, or listen to everyone's thoughts. So, the cabinet members quietly closed the door and left. At this time, Albert realized that what was actually missing in the snow was people, groups of innocent and lively children, and if there were people on the snow, it would really be like a fairy tale. What a beautiful snow, he said to himself.

The next morning, Congress went on as usual, but the Cabinet members were not very active, and Albert thought to himself that these people should talk about the decadence of the platform, or accuse the president of incompetence, and so on, but that did not happen. As a president, Albert seemed particularly relaxed and natural, and he felt that he should speak out for the last time, he guessed, and only in such a situation could someone tell him the truth.

The meeting was still carried out in an orderly manner, although everyone knew that this was a cabinet meeting, but none of the procedures that should be followed were left behind, except for one of the most sensitive topics that others could not mention, so Albert himself could only speak first. The president can't go on, so he has to have a gesture. In the end, Albert brought it up on his own, saying that he wanted to hear what the attitude of Congress was.

Most of the members who came to the meeting were members of the cabinet of this year, although they were small, they were all well-organized, and they were all Albert's right-hand men who were very trusted or celebrities of the society at that time. These people are all secretive now, some are watching the fire from the other side, some are deeply sympathetic, some are secretly happy, and some are waiting to wait and see, but the final statement is surprisingly unanimous. In the end, Albert had to accept the reality, agree to the result of the vote, and resign as president.

It is common sense that the previous president should have a successor when he leaves office, and because of the special background of the times, this agenda can only be to elect a successor first. Congressional members, you look at me, I look at you, hoping that someone will stand up for the presidential nomination, and at this time, someone will boldly stand up and support Eric? Adrian, and briefly elaborated on the reasons for the nomination.

However, if only one candidate is not eligible for election, then one or two people must run for the people to vote, so two cabinet members who volunteered to run at the same time appeared.

Adrian was immediately aware of this situation, and was very pleased, and immediately telegraphed staunch supporters everywhere to quickly build up momentum, and issued a campaign platform in the form of a telegram to the people of the whole country, promising to hand over to the people a prosperous, stable, united, harmonious, fair, and prosperous Germany during his term of office. Supporters everywhere were in high spirits and passionate, and every effort was made to create a positive atmosphere for Adrian's campaign, and the whole process was enthusiastic and cheerful, and all the people were enthusiastic. In just a few days, support Eric? Adrian's crowd grew, holding banners and shouting slogans, unanimously willing to cast a sacred and precious vote for the young future president.

At the same time, the reception of Potsdam had been completed, the armies were fully rested, and most of Schleicher's troops were integrated into the various units.

According to Adrian's "four musts", Potsdam was largely well preserved during the war, especially the registered monuments and famous buildings. The people have returned to their homes, and the new life has given them hope again, especially the initiative of the National Army to help them rebuild their homes, which makes them full of expectations for the new government.

Early in the morning, the Nationalist Army was helping the citizens of Potsdam to clean up the streets, and the badly damaged walls, doors and windows were restored, and the whole of Potsdam was restored to life.

Celebrities from all over the country soon gathered in Berlin, which shows how desperate the whole country is to think about stability after a long time.

The counting of votes was supervised by an interim cabinet made up of all members of society, and Eric ? Adrian was well awaited and was elected with a high number of votes without any suspense. The result was quickly announced by the interim cabinet by telegram to the nation, and by President-elect Eric ? Adrian will deliver his inaugural address on a later date.

Adrian, who was far away in Hanover, received the telegram of his election at the same time, but he behaved calmly and proudly. In fact, it all seemed to be in his plan, and the reason why he was calm and relaxed was not at all because the dust had settled, but because he would have to face all the difficulties and lead Germany out of the predicament and realize the political program he had issued before the election.

When everyone, including Sylna and Sylna's relatives, was congratulating him, Adrian couldn't help but whisper in his heart: "Power comes out of the barrel of a gun, and it is indeed a wise saying!" Of course, Adrian's military power and the large forces of the Nationalist army that were already approaching Berlin also had some influence, but most of it was because of his governing program and the group he united played a decisive role in his vote.

Albert stood on the white snow, surprisingly calm, not angry, but relieved. He didn't think much about what would happen to his trial, he just felt that he had let go of everything, and he had never felt more relaxed than before, and this feeling was very good.

In the early morning of November 5th, Adrian, who had not slept all night, and Gustav, the prime minister of the cabinet? Stresemann arrived in Berlin on three special trains with some of the government officials he had nominated.

Outside Berlin, the three armies of the Nationalist Army gathered in a neat formation of tanks, armored vehicles, heavy artillery, and infantry in the endless snow to be inspected by President-elect Adrian. According to the arrangements of the new government, the entrance ceremony into the city was held at 10 a.m., so the large army was also regarded as a large-scale exercise. Adrian was very approachable and kept waving to everyone and praising them for their significant contributions to the country and its people in his speech.

At ten o'clock, the mighty national army was neatly dressed, full of swords and guns, with steady steps, holding their heads high, fluttering their battle flags, and marching into the city in an orderly manner amid the sound of military music. Adrian sat in a brand-new Benz convertible and waved to the crowd along the way.

Adrian's presidential palace was set up in the former Prince's Palace, which was his last stop from the German political scene, and the selection of this place as his presidential palace was undoubtedly a high-profile return.

The inaugural speech was held at the new presidential palace, and a copy of the inaugural speech, drafted by Brauchitsch and corrected by Stresemann, was more than a dozen pages.
