1055 Great Victory

"Good!" Hearing the news that the front-line troops had begun to reorganize, Li Le couldn't help but clench his fists.

Even after sitting in this position for a year, Li Le was still excited by the victory he had achieved.

To be able to make Brauchitsch in the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Army "his own" may be a bigger victory than taking Moscow!

After all, unity is the environment he wants. Mutual suspicion and mutual demolition are not what he is good at, and it is definitely not what he wants.

Historically, the grievances and grievances between the German Army General Headquarters and the Supreme Command could really be written.

Among them, there is the helplessness of the head of state who has changed the commander-in-chief of the army several times and concurrently serves as the commander-in-chief of the group army.

There was also the thrilling assassination of the Führer by an army officer and the destruction of the wolf's den hut - Hitler was lucky not to die, and immediately launched a series of retaliation.

Even Field Marshal Rommel, whom he personally raised, eventually fell victim to politics and ended his life by suicide.

At the time of victory, everything was covered up under the aura of victory, but once there was a problem on the battlefield, the contradictions between the army and the Führer broke out completely.

And the contradiction between powers was also an important reason for the rapid demise of the Third Reich.

The Führer did not trust his officers and, stubbornly not listening to advice, began to give some tough orders; The Army's disobedience and deception eventually made the war situation even more desperate.

In the 21st century, Li Le watched a movie called "The Destruction of the Empire", which tells the story of the Führer's final madness.

Even if it is only an artistic reproduction, the Führer's final appearance has probably been presented in front of the audience more faithfully.

Those seemingly ridiculous orders were actually because Hitler no longer knew the specifics of the front-line combat troops.

An armored division marked on the map actually has only a dozen or even a few tanks; A battle group may not even have the strength of a battalion - but on the map, it is still marked as an armored division, and it is still a battle group......

In the face of the Soviet Red Army, which was ten or even a hundred times its size, it was already very difficult for the German army to hold its position, how could it have the ability to counterattack?

So, the Führer sat in the basement, commanding the forces that had been annihilated and did not exist, desperately awaiting his own end.

Therefore, in addition to the fear and despair of the end of Hitler's last days, part of the reason is that he has really been deceived for too long, and he has no idea that he has long been alone.

Li Le didn't want to be alone, so he tried his best to build his own power, and he became more and more successful in this regard.

Among the businessmen, his spokesperson, Lévi von Berrynn, has begun to emerge as a new business leader.

In the industrial sector, Speer, a close confidant of the Führer, was also very popular, as if he was already the great steward of the imperial industry.

In the army, Hitler had already laid down the two lines of Goering and Raeder, and now he had been firmly pinched by Li Le in his hands.

And in the Army, which was originally a territory that Hitler could not interfere in, now Brauchitsch has handed over his vote!

Including Krupp, who obeyed Hitler, Hess, who rose rapidly with the support of Li Le, and Dr. Goebbels, a loyal propaganda guru, Li Le is now in a much better situation than Hitler faced.

"Field Marshal Brauchitsch has ordered the three Eastern Front Army Groups to be split and expanded into four Army Groups." Field Marshal Keitel excitedly continued to report.

Originally, he thought that this proposal between himself and the Führer would be prevaricated by the Army General Command and finally compromised. However, he did not expect that the other party did not hesitate and directly agreed to the proposal of the Supreme Command under the Führer's command.

To be able to become the Führer's Chief of Staff, Keitel is naturally not a fool. He knew that Brauchitsch was on the side, and the Führer's power in the army was already on par with the Junker nobles!

Among the army generals who have now become field marshals, Brauchitsch, Keitel, and Kluge have clearly taken sides, and the three marshals Liszt, Bock, and Loeb are all wall-ridden factions, and they are only responsible for fighting wars and are unwilling to intervene in political struggles.

Plus the marshals of the Navy, the marshals of the Air Force, the power of the Führer within the military, has been unprecedentedly strong. Among those marshals who have not yet expressed their position, there are very few people who are really willing to stand up for the Junker aristocracy.

Because of the foresight of Li Le, the traverser, Witzleben, the big anti-Führer leader, is now about to get out of the top of the army.

In line with the principle of making the best use of things, Li Le arranged for him to supervise the skeletons within the SS - he opposed the Führer anyway, and could more or less correct the atrocities of the skeletons.

In fact, the real killer move prepared by Li Le is in the second echelon that may become a marshal. Whether it was Qucheller or Guderian, whether it was Manstein or Rommel, they were almost all promoted by the Führer.

"Field Marshal Brauchitsch is really a model for the soldiers of the Reich." As the head of state, Li Le expressed his happiness at this moment.

As chief of staff of the Supreme Command, Keitel was also pleased with Brauchitsch's "surrender" - without the constraints of the General Command, his power would increase accordingly.

"I see! My Führer! I will at once go to the wolf's den and meet Marshal Brauchitsch......" Keitel said to the Führer, knowing what he meant, and standing up and saluting the Führer.

"Excellent! Pass on our kindness to him! Seeing that Keitel understood what he meant, Li Le nodded with satisfaction and agreed.

"As for the bombing of Moscow...... Leave this matter to Goebbels! With a wicked smile on his face, the Führer's bad taste began again.

Hearing this order, Keitel was stunned for a moment, and then understood the meaning of what the Führer said.

Leave it to Goebbels, then this propaganda against the Soviet bombers attacking Moscow will have consequences ten or even a hundred times greater than the actual ones.

Countless buildings blown up by the Germans will be transformed into ones blown up by the Soviets themselves.

After all, Goebbels was a genius at using the state propaganda machine to manipulate right and wrong, and has recently become obsessed with a new means of propaganda: television.

In the era when there is no Internet, television can be said to be the king of propaganda media. Compared with newspapers and radio, its propaganda effect is countless times greater.

From the moment the television was born, Goebbels noticed this new channel of propaganda – which, as long as he controlled it, could continue to dominate propaganda for decades or more!
