In 1930, the Great Depression was also going through the great depression in Germany, and the peasants, workers, students, patriots, racists, and middle-class citizens!

The economic crisis immediately uncovered Germany's remarkable recovery. By the end of the summer, the number of unemployed people in Germany had reached 3 million, and Chancellor Bruning's economic policy of reducing spending had made things worse.

Hitler saw very clearly that the urgent situation that would enable him to control Germany politically finally arose. His appeal to the workers is expressed in the words of the ** people.

"German workers, wake up! Break your chains! ”

To the peasants, Hitler proposed the adjustment of taxes and import duties. What the lower and middle classes without the support of the trade unions is hope; What the middle class, ashamed of poverty, gets is self-esteem. To the young idealists inside and outside the university, Hitler gave the following:

An ideal new world.

Although the number of young idealists was small, they were Hitler's future cadres with high morale and loyalty.

When Hitler preached the vanguard of the Crusaders against materialism and selfishness, guaranteeing the establishment of social unity and a struggle for socialism and the eternal youth of Germany, they were fascinated one by one.

They believed that Hitler would create a genuine socialist regime; They roam the streets of big cities, chanting slogans shared with their adversaries:

"Be free! To work! Ask for bread! ”

The rising generation sensed that things were moving and that the terrible stagnation was over.

Now is the time to appeal to the majority of young idealists, and Hitler is the only politician who understands the power of this appeal.

Many intellectuals, celebrities, and even royalty were attracted to him. In the spring of that year, the Kaiser's child, August. Wilhelm wrote a letter to his dear comrade-in-arms Hitler, telling him "from the bottom of my heart" that he had just been absorbed into the party. "It was a moment when I was deeply moved, and I naturally thought of you and pledged my allegiance to you."

The prince was afraid that ** would spread; His transformation also affected Filip. Feng. Prince Hessen, nephew of the Kaiser and grandson of Empress Victoria. The latter also turned to Hitler.

In 1930, Hitler also brought something new to the Germans – the feeling of unity.

He welcomed everyone to join the expedition, without class boundaries; The only condition was that he would consciously and voluntarily follow Hitler and fight to the death in the struggle against the Jews and the Red elements, in the struggle for living space and German interests.

That summer, Hitler worked tirelessly to carry out his all-encompassing plan, delivering 20 important speeches in the last six weeks.

Hitler was a born statesman. He found that it was not only natural to be with the crowd, to shake hands with people, to kiss the baby's face, but also to bow to women.

He dined more often with working-class or lower-middle-class followers than with upper-class figures, and his egalitarian attitude appealed to petty clerks, petty businessmen and laborers.

In order to approach each kind of person, Hitler used the method of sending letters separately, but he never forgot his lesson in Landsberg: he had to win the masses over.

In this matter, it can be said that the whole world has never so obeyed such an inducement. Goebbels organized 6,000 rallies. In the hall, under a tent that can accommodate 10,000 people, in the open air. There is also a torch procession; Whether in the city or in the countryside, there are eye-catching red slogans everywhere. Nazi-issued newspapers, often with a special issue of a particular movement, and millions of copies printed at a time, were overwhelming throughout Germany; If they can't sell it, they give it away for free. …,

In his last instruction to the workers on the morning of the election, Goebbels gave them advice on how to rig the election. It's ridiculous, but it's actionable advice.

"Do it jokingly, do it seriously! Do it to your dear colleagues as people usually do to them! To stimulate them, make them angry, and lead them by the nose! ”

On that day, there were long queues in front of polling stations across the country. The total number of votes was 35 million; 4 million more than in 1928. Hitler arrived at the election center in Munich in the afternoon. He was greeted by Adolf, the publisher of the Nazi Party. Miller.

Miller excitedly said, "We won!" I can get 66 seats! ”

Since 1928, they have held only 54 seats, an increase that is certainly staggering, but Hitler said that if the German people had thought correctly, the numbers could have been higher.

What surprised the National Socialists was a disgusting shock to their opposition.

In order to avoid mistakes, officials checked the ballots again and again, and only after checking them were correct did they announce that the Nazis had received 6.371 million votes, or more than 18 percent of the total votes. Within two years, Hitler's party had gone from 810,000 to become the second largest party in the Reich.

After declaring Hitler politically dead, the Social Democrats mistakenly focused their struggle on the Red Division

** It also won a great victory with 1,326,000 votes, while the Social Democrats lost 60,000 votes. This circumstance suggests that Hitler's victory came at the cost of the defeat of the middle-class party.

The largest increase in Nazi votes came from the peasants and the middle and lower classes from the countryside, as well as from the Protestant quarters of northern Germany. There were also a large number of votes among the Catholics, and before the beer hall uprising, Hitler fought almost exclusively among the traitors, among the awakened and among the desperate.

Now, he has the support of people who want him to bring them a good day. Hitler's elastic appeal and powerful speeches attracted voters, but it was the tireless work of thousands of branch leaders and branch foremen in the party's high-performance vertical that brought them to the polling stations.

Hitler had sworn to the revolutionaries in his party that he would establish a National Socialist tribunal once he took power. "Then the revenge of the November Revolution of 1918 will be avenged, and the heads will fall to the ground!"

Hitler again showed his political flexibility, satisfying both the burghers and the revolutionaries almost at the same time; For the former, he promised a wish for peace, and gave the latter a bloody revenge.

The effect of his speech went far beyond Germany, as he was the spokesman for Germany's second-largest party, and his inflammatory rhetoric about the Treaty of Versailles was no longer the meaningless rhetoric of a politician.

A few days later, Hitler changed his pace. He told the Times reporter in London that he would operate strictly within the limits of the law.

Two weeks later, on 13 October, 107 Nazi delegates in brown shirts marched into the Reichstag for the opening ceremony. At the roll call, everyone replied with a loud voice: "Yes!" Long live Hitler! ”

Hitler then took part in a meeting of the party leaders in the north.

The meeting was important to the party and was only allowed to be attended by party governors and leaders of the SA. The meeting was a success, and it marked the end of the party's reshuffle.

"Our Party One." A few days later, he said, "Today there is unity, and the governors and political leaders instinctively make the right decisions." One of the results of the meeting was that the party purged "all the lazy, corrupt and waste".

The party apparatus was streamlined, the party system was consolidated, and Hitler's personal power was strengthened.

After the internal affairs were put in order, Hitler was free to devote himself to the political activities of the whole country. Through one of President Hindenburg's confidant advisers, Kurt. Feng. General Schleicher's arrangement, Hitler met with the "old man". …,

In front of Hindenburg, Hitler seemed at a loss. Standing six feet five inches tall and with a loud and deep voice, Hindenburg was an unstoppable figure. Hitler's long speech made the field marshal angry. It is said that he later complained to Schleicher that Hitler was a strange man who would never become chancellor, and that he could hold no higher post than minister of posts and telecommunications.

Although the meeting was disappointing, Schleicher still had hope for Hitler.

He was impressed not only by his achievements in the recent general election, but also by his nationalist program. "He's an interesting character with extraordinary eloquence." This is his assessment of Hitler. According to his plan, he went to heaven. To keep him grounded, you have to grab his tail. ”

Schleicher – In German, it means "conspirator" is a man who is adaptable, but enthusiasm can lead him to a deep pool. He secretly thought that he was capable of swaying any corporal in the past!

Hitler was accustomed to being underestimated. The government's failure to deal with the growing problem of unemployment woke up many Germans, among whom Hitler built a base of mass support within a few months. In order to gain the support of the national porphyr, he tried to address the American people and the Chinese people directly.

This is unprecedented. He plans to explain his party's "path, significance, and goals" to the Chinese and American people via CBS on the evening of December 11.

However, at the last minute, the German government canceled the radio speech, but the translation of his speech appeared in the Hirst newspapers.

On New Year's Day 1931, he gave a speech in Munich. He told his audience that God was on his side in the struggle for a better world.

Doesn't the Bible say that the cold should be spit out?

Almost immediately thereafter, Hitler seemed to have achieved some kind of victory.

Hindenburg's advisers invited him to Berlin. They asked him to help extend Field Marshal Hindenburg's presidency, but this ran counter to Hitler's wishes. Because, he said, he would then have to support Prime Minister Bruning's policies to some extent. he

shows that even though it is a gamble to openly compete with Hindenburg, it is still ready to risk its entire political future for the presidency.

The "old man" Hindenburg is a legend. His conservatism will inevitably win many votes from the right, and his open protection of the Weimar Republic against extremists like Hitler will inevitably attract moderates and democrats!
