Chapter 15 The Secret Police

As Zhang Chengtian expected, to be precise, it is not destined by history. The Polish 5th Army took advantage of the incongruity in the elongated lines of the 3rd, 4th, and 15th armies of the Red Army to prevent the offensive of these armies, and in the suburbs of Warsaw, the advance of the 16th Army. Subsequently, the Polish 3rd and 4th armies penetrated directly into the flank of the 16th Army of the Red Army, and the rest of the Polish armies switched to a counteroffensive on all fronts, resulting in a crushing defeat for the Soviet army in the Battle of Warsaw.

In this battle, all the Soviet 4th Army, 2 divisions of the 15th Army and the 3rd Cavalry Corps were forced to withdraw into German East Prussia by the commander-in-chief of the Polish Latvian Armed Forces, Eduard Rez-Himigvi, and were disarmed, the 15th and 16th armies were basically lost, and the Red Army lost about 150,000 people, 230 artillery pieces, and more than 1,000 machine guns.

Subsequently, Germany soon returned the disarmed Soviet troops to the Soviet Union along with their equipment.

Germany's initiative quickly won the goodwill of the Soviet Union. In addition, as a result of the defeat in the war, there was a great shock among the Soviet leadership. At the Ninth Congress of Deputies, the Soviet leadership fiercely discussed the reasons for the defeat in the war and the prospects for the world revolution.

Tukhachevsky criticized the performance of the Southwestern Front in the war, and the political commissar of the Front, Stalin, directly pointed out that this defeat was inextricably linked to the poor logistics and inferior equipment of the army.

Stalin's views coincided with Germany's intention to cooperate and develop when it returned the disarmed Soviet troops.

Coincidentally, the aftermath of this campaign propelled the leaders of the three future European powers to the throne at one time.

Poland, the most victorious country, and the Polish general who led the victory in Warsaw, Eduard Rez-Himigvi, became famous and accumulated capital for the later military dictatorship of Poland Marshal and Pole.

Stalin, who was the first to propose cooperation with Germany, was appointed by Lenin as the head of Soviet-German cooperation. He negotiated the "Raballo Treaty" on the secret Soviet-German cooperation with Zhang Chengtian, the head of the German side.

According to the treaty, the two sides restored diplomatic relations, developed bilateral trade and economic relations under the principle of most-favored-nation status, and waived claims for reparations and property. Subsequently, the two countries concluded a secret military agreement, in which Germany resisted the ban of the Treaty of Versailles, provided Soviet Russia with complete sets of weapons manufacturing production lines to strengthen the weapons of the Soviet Russian troops, and helped the Soviet Russia build roads to strengthen the logistics of the Russian troops by European standards. Russia opened its bases and factories to Germany, where it could undisturbed the training of armored troops, pilots, and other military personnel, and the development of weapons strictly prohibited by the Treaty of Versailles.

As the head of the German leadership of Sickert's student and assistant, Chang Seungtian was to be promoted to colonel and went to Moscow, Soviet Russia, to establish an executive body called the "Moscow Center". And the site of the Joint Tank School is planned in Kazan.

Before leaving, Zhang Chengtian contacted Steve, who was still a company commander in the Wehrmacht. When Steve learned that Zhang wanted his help to form a civilian armed force that could be used as a reserve, Steve resolutely submitted an application for retirement and went to Berlin to join Chang. Along with Steve, 24 officers and soldiers from the original 3rd Company submitted their retirement applications. They are all the essence left after being selected by the National Defense Force, but at this moment they did not hesitate to leave the army to help Zhang Chengtian form a militia unit. They did not do so because they did not value the identity of the IDF. On the contrary, they all cherished the opportunity to remain in the Defence Force. But they were willing to give up this hard-won opportunity to build up this combat-ready reserve force for Germany. This is a sense of responsibility to Germany, and it is also a trust in Zhang Chengtian.

Zhang Chengtian, who felt this trust, deeply realized the responsibility on his shoulders. There are too many people in Germany who have given their hopes to themselves, and Zhang Chengtian really does not intend to disappoint these people. Just as Zhang Chengtian was about to go to the suburbs of Berlin to meet with Steve and others. The door to Mr. Zhang's office was knocked open by an acquaintance.

"It's you, Rose." Zhang Chengtian quickly recognized the sheriff who had saved him from Schmidt's bodyguards.

Seeing that Zhang Chengtian recognized himself, Ross didn't go around the bush, and directly talked about the topic of coming here, "Lieutenant Colonel Reinhardt, no, Colonel Reinhardt." Congratulations on another promotion. You may be the fastest-promoted colonel in German history. ”

Hearing the praise, Zhang Chengtian was unabashedly fluttering. Keep screaming in my heart, a few more words of praise, a few more words of praise for me.

However, Ross did not continue to praise him as Chang had hoped. "But you're no small threat. According to the information I received, the chairman of Schmidt last time, after he was released from prison, went around looking for connections to take revenge on you. ”

Zhang Chengtian's face couldn't help twitching twice, he almost forgot about Schmidt's troubles. Suddenly hearing the news, Zhang Chengtian realized his carelessness.

However, Ross obviously did not just come to inform the news, and replied without waiting for Zhang Chengtian to speak: "But our police force has quickly disposed of him, and Schmidt is now shut up forever." ”

"Got it?! Aren't you afraid of accidents when you do this? Apparently Zhang Chengtian was surprised by Ross's ruthlessness and decisiveness, after all, Zhang Chengtian had never had the experience of destroying a single life. In this matter, Ross taught Zhang Chengtian a lesson, sometimes if you don't put your opponent to death, your opponent will in turn threaten you. This is true between people, and it is also true between countries!

"Our entire police force is a member of the Navy who participated in Operation Rainbow, and we are never afraid to support you. From the moment you proposed Operation Rainbow, I thought you weren't an ordinary military man. After hearing that you planned to quell the Karp Rebellion, your ability to anticipate has convinced me. I have always believed that the rise of Germany is inseparable from talents like you. By the end of the day, Ross had begun to make his loyalty clear.

Zhang Chengtian, who realized this, suddenly remembered something, and then solemnly mentioned to Ross: "If I want you to help me form a secret police covering the whole country, in the future, I will find out those moths that hinder the rise of Germany, and dig out foreign spies." Will you accept it? ”

"My will, your sword. I am willing to work for you and for Germany. ”

For this colleague who has worked together, Zhang Chengtian still knows a lot. At least, Zhang had no doubts about Ross's undisguised patriotism and radicalism. Scared to pat Ross on the shoulder, Zhang Chengtian smiled and said, "Well, from today onwards, you will be the direct head of the secret organization 'Gestapo'." I can draw reliable personnel from the retrenched army here. I will collect the funds for you in the early stage in the name of resettlement of retired soldiers, and the later stage will be provided by the operating Rheinland Company. Remember, be sure to set it up in secret and report back to me alone. All the personnel should know about my merits and have nothing to say a few words of praise to me. ”

Jang Seung-tian's narcissistic hint was understood by Ross to mean that the selected members must be loyal and have a certain admiration for Jang Seung-tian like himself.

"That's it, you are responsible for the specific cases, and you can report to me at any time. When I go abroad, you remember to help me keep an eye on a small new party called the German Democratic Socialist Workers' Party. We will have our people in this small party, and by the way, we will also have some of our people in other political parties. After the initial establishment of the secret police, Zhang Chengtian immediately thought of mixing sand into the Nazi Party, which would become invincible. After all, the Gestapo is the trump card of Hitler in later generations, and it is not enough to pay tribute to Hitler if it is not used to beware of Hitler.

Subsequently, Zhang Chengtian seized the time. rushed to a small warehouse on the outskirts of Berlin that he had agreed with Steve and others. There, they would screen a large number of retired personnel for the future reorganization of the German Socialist Workers' Party to form an SS. A paramilitary organization labeled by the government as a reserve training center.

And Zhang Chengtian, who was traveling alone, was immediately targeted by several ill-intentioned assassins after leaving the office building. On Jang Seung-tian's way to the suburban warehouse, a hired assassination team quietly gathered behind Jang Seung-tian...
