Villa Hugel, and the small buildings in its vicinity; It was surrounded by barbed wire and guarded by armed sentinels. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

And in the office of the dacha, a portrait of Hitler hangs, and under it is written "With the Führer until victory!" ".

Alfried Krupp, who already has a little gray hair, arrives here by car at 9 a.m. every day and works late into the night.

It's just that he couldn't have imagined that Guderian would come to him that afternoon, when he was resting and eating.

"Boss, General Guderian is looking for you!"

A tall bodyguard respectfully walked up to Alfred Krupp, who was eating and drinking, and reported cautiously.

"Hmmm! Guderian looking for me? ”

Alfried Krupp stopped the Camel cigarette he was smoking and was surprised.

"Yes! Are you going to meet him? He's waiting outside the villa! ”

The tall bodyguard asked respectfully.

"Did he say what he was looking for me for? Abum! ”

Alfried Krupp took a sip of whiskey and narrowed his eyes.

"He said that the Führer had given him some design drawings for new weapons and equipment, and asked him to find a manufacturer to produce them, so he came over and asked if you wanted to take the order!"

The bodyguard Abum recalled what Guderian had said and replied.

"The design drawings given by the Führer? Call him in right away! ”

When Alfred Krupp heard this, he suddenly came to his senses.

In fact, he had a lot to deal with when he finished eating, and if there was nothing important, he was still reluctant to meet Guderian during his working hours.

So Guderian was also a relatively well-known German general, but he had not yet reached the point of receiving him.

But when he heard that Guderian had brought the Führer's blueprints and asked him if he was in the arms business, it was completely different things.

To know them

The Krupp family has always been on the side of the state, and its alliance with the state has given Krupp an advantage in the production of instruments of peace.

Therefore, like his father, he sees his company as "a national factory".

At the same time, he tried to distinguish him from those who were "mere smart businessmen", who always wanted the Krupp Group under his leadership to go beyond the boundaries of the company and thus integrate with the interests of the state.

The state has an obligation to take care of the interests of the Krupp family, and the Krupp family is rightfully able to meet the needs of the state to the best of its ability.

So when he sided with the Third Reich and Hitler, he ordered his factories to supply the Nazi army with an endless supply of artillery and tanks; At the same time, he carried out the most inhumane enslavement of Jews and other Allied prisoners in concentration camps.

Of course, his approach to bonding with the state is completely different from that of American giants such as Ford, Rockefeller, or Carnegie.

Because the unspoken rule in the United States is that there are some things that the U.S. government does not dare to ask companies to do, and at the same time, those major American industrialists will dare to do anything without the consent of the government.

Moments later, Guderian was defeated by Alfrid ? Krupp's bodyguard, brought to the parlor.

"Hahaha! To be able to get the presence of General Guderian, is it simply me Alfried? Krupp's greatest honor! ”

As soon as he saw Guderian, Alfried Krupp instantly smiled very hypocritically and laughed.

"Thanks for the compliment! Mr. Krupp! ”

Guderian nodded, and in a friendly tone, smiled.

"By the way, General Guderian, you just told my bodyguard about the Führer's new weapons and equipment, what's going on?"

Alfred Krupp doesn't talk nonsense either, straight to the point.

"See for yourself! But after reading it, if you don't want to produce these weapons and equipment; Please keep it a secret, or the Führer will talk to you! ”

Guderian warned as he handed the design drawings of the armament to Krupp.

"Of course! I am the Führer's most loyal arms company, and my family has always regarded our company as 'a nation's factory'! ”

Alfried Krupp received the design drawings with a proud smile on his face.

"By the way, these design drawings were designed by the Führer for the weapons designer? General Guderian! ”

At the same time, he asked curiously.

"I don't know, the Führer didn't say it to me! Or you can give some valuable advice after reading it! How to say that you are also an expert in this industry! Mr. Krupp! ”

Guderian shook his head in response.

"Yes! All right! Then let me take a look and give some advice! How to say that I am also an expert in this field, and the name of our Krupp company is also well-known in the world! So I believe that there is no weapon in the world that can test my wisdom and eyesight! ”

Alfried? Krupp confidently admired himself.

It's just that when he opened Chen Yanlong's design drawings and took a cursory look at them for a while, his whole person immediately seemed to be petrified, dumbfounded; Stunned as a wooden chicken, his brain was disconnected and stared at the design drawings in his hand, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.

Looking at Krupp, who had almost the same shocked expression as he did at the time, Guderian suddenly felt that his trip should not have run in vain.

"That's, that'...... Krupp: What do you think of the design drawings? Is the test in your company? ”

After Krupp stood there for a while, Guderian asked slowly.

"Absolutely! Absolutely! Such excellent weapons and equipment belong to us! And if there is no strong company like us to undertake the production, I am afraid you really can't find someone else to replace us! ”

Krupp, who came to his senses, immediately shouted loudly in a hurry.

"That's good! However, the Führer said that these weapons and equipment cannot be produced by one company! Because he asks for a lot of production! ”

As soon as Guderian saw such a violent reaction from the other party, he immediately said in a happy mood.

"What! Can't give it all to one company? ”

Hearing this, Alfred Krupp's eyes widened like bull's eyes, and he stared at Guderian with a gloomy face, and said in a daze.

"Ahh Me, did I say something wrong......"

Seeing this, Guderian was covered in cold sweat and said embarrassedly and nervously.

"I want to see the Führer! The production line of these weapons and equipment is going to be fully covered by our Krupp company! ”

As soon as the words fell, the entire several-story Hugel villa resounded with the earth-shattering roar of Alfried Krupp.

Guderian, on the other hand, was sweating profusely, standing still, smiling wryly......

And the next few hours later, the entire German arms community was boiling alone.

Because everyone is spreading that Alfried Krupp has received a large order, and a large order for the production of very advanced weapons and equipment.

And the consignee of the order was the Führer himself, and it was said that the order was in large quantities and was produced by more than one munitions company......

As soon as they heard the news, all the German arms entrepreneurs immediately began to clamor and shout; rushed towards the Imperial Chancellery in Berlin, ready to find Chen Yanlong to get an order.
