Li Mo is laying out for his future!! If the combat troops, the intelligence system, and the propaganda agency can be well integrated, with the relationship and background of the Krupp family, Li Mo's development will be limitless.

As for the Italian volunteer Vincent, after receiving an Iron Cross of the First Class, he set off for home, his gilded journey has been completed, and so many beautiful girls in Italy are still waiting for her! The heroic fighting spirit of ancient Rome has been completely abandoned by these romantic Italians. In the Roman Empire, the Germanic peoples were still called barbarians, that is, peoples whose civilization had not yet begun, but now history has been turned upside down.

Time flies, and it has been a month since Li Mo returned to Germany, and he quickly became familiar with the various work processes of the High Command, and there are many departments under the High Command, and their roles and functions are also familiar to Li Mo. However, the organs and powers of the High Command seriously overlapped with those of traditional German institutions. In fact, this was all a situation created by Hitler's desire to monopolize power.

After Hitler came to power, the functions of the General Staff of the German Army gradually changed, and on February 4, 1937, Hitler issued a proclamation on the leadership of the Wehrmacht. In the proclamation, in addition to announcing that he would monopolize military and political power, Hitler also stipulated the division of labor and powers of the leading organs: The Wehrmacht Bureau, which was formerly subordinate to the Ministry of Defense, was changed to the Wehrmacht High Command and was directly subordinate to Hitler as Hitler's military staff. The former director of the National Defence Forces Bureau was inaugurated as Chief of Staff of the Supreme Command of the National Defence Forces, and is the head of the Supreme Command, at the same level as the Minister of National Defence. The Supreme High Command takes over the operations of the Ministry of Defence, and the Chief of Staff of the Supreme High Command exercises the functions and powers of the former Minister of Defence. On February 5, 1937, Hitler appointed Field Marshal Keitel Chief of the General Staff of the Supreme High Command of the German Armed Forces.

The Supreme High Command includes the General Office, the General Directorate of the Armed Forces, the Operations Bureau (1 Bureau), the Espionage Bureau (2 Bureau), the Communications Bureau, the Economic and Armaments Bureau, the Liaison Bureau and other institutions. In peacetime, the Supreme High Command was fully responsible for the preparation of Germany's defense, on the orders of Hitler. In this way, the position and powers of the traditional army general staff of the German army were in a delicate and awkward position. After the outbreak of World War II, the contradictions between Hitler and the Army Headquarters and the Army General Staff gradually became apparent. During the attack on France, Hitler for the first time forced the Army Headquarters to accept his military views on the Battle of Dunkirk, and at a critical moment handed over important decisions to his subordinate command (Leinster), which led to the gradual disintegration of the traditional German military command system. During the Battle of Moscow, with Brauchitsch's resignation, Hitler's distrust of the Army General Staff became clearer, and the Army Headquarters gradually became Hitler's "out-and-out herald".

The Chief of the General Staff of the German Army refers to the Chief of the General Staff of the German Army in general. And Field Marshal William Keitel was the Chief of Staff of the Supreme Command. So they were different, and Keitel was responsible only to Hitler alone. And the chief of the general staff of the German army was responsible for the entire German Wehrmacht, and the chief of staff of the general staff of the German army was established very early, and the chief of the general staff of the supreme command was established after the mustache came to power. That's the difference.

All the armed forces of Germany are under the control and command of the High Command, and the High Command is Hitler's word, and there is nothing in peacetime, if it is wartime, it will inevitably cause fierce conflicts between the commands of all services, the General Staff of the German Army and the High Command, and at the same time make Germany's already very complete command system fall into chaos, Hitler's dictatorship is indeed digging a grave for himself, and at the same time digging a grave for the Reich of a third country.

Li Mo is a small captain staff officer, without any ability to change the status quo, "The staff officer does not lead the commander, and he doesn't make a sound." "Li Mo did not go directly to Hitler and ask the great, omnipotent Führer to correct his mistakes, which is undoubtedly an act of seeking death. Is there no way for Li Mo? You must know that the Third Reich is finished, the Krupp family will be finished, the Krupp family will also suffer a catastrophe, and the Krupp company in later generations will end up bankrupt. Li Mo already has his own perfect plan in his heart, but this plan can only be implemented with the cooperation of many high-ranking generals, otherwise Li Mo will still die.

"Captain Limer, Marshal Keitel is looking for you."

"Miss Anne, thank you for the notice, how about a cup of coffee later?"

"It's a great honor to be invited by Prince Charming to see you on your lunch break."

After Anne finished speaking, she hugged a stack of documents and left, on the surface, Anne seemed to have a calm facial expression, but in fact, her heart was already full of passion, Li Mo's handsome appearance, elegant conversation, and heroic aura all deeply attracted Anne, an innocent girl who had just walked out of school. The German aristocracy is a gentleman on the surface, but no one has done anything behind the scenes, this is just an aristocratic tradition, and everyone will only use it as an after-dinner conversation.

The current High Command is on the second floor of the Reichstag Building, next to Hitler's office, but there are more rooms in the High Command, which used to be a large conference room, which has been renovated.

Li Mo has been in the headquarters for a month, but he is only familiar with the business, and he has not assigned specific work, and now Keitel is talking to Li Mo, most of which is about arranging Li Mo's future work.

Keitel was now Chief of the General Staff of the High Command, and Field Marshal Ter was nicknamed a "lackey" among the top German generals, because of his proximity to Hitler, who remained loyal to him until the day of his suicide.

Keitel, who was the head of the German High Command. Its military qualities and talents are still quite good. However, Keitel was a tool used by Hitler to seize power, and the struggle for power between him and Hitler seriously undermined the already perfect command system of the German army, and also caused some senior generals to have serious dissatisfaction with Hitler, and Hitler was assassinated 44 times, half of which was done by the Germans themselves, which shows how serious the contradiction between Hitler and his own generals was. The most serious thing is that Hitler himself was not a strategist and military strategist, but only an amateur military enthusiast, can such a person command the strategic Armageddon of millions of people be good? Hitler was to blame for Germany's great defeat in the latter part of history.

Both the Army General Command and the Army General Staff believe that the Army will naturally play a very important role in any future war, and they hope that the Army will have a decisive influence on the course of the war.

They advocated that the Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces should be composed of those who led the entire campaign, with the smallest possible structure. The Supreme High Command is only a staff organ of the Führer, and should only draw up strategic plans and plans for future campaigns in general, and should not interfere with the command of specific front-line generals.
