De Gaulle escaped five times and was arrested five times, and Tukhachevsky also tried to escape several times, all of which ended in failure, so they were well prepared for this escape, picking out the spoon they were eating spoon by spoon in the dead of night, and then hiding the mud in their trouser bags, and quietly throwing the mud into the ground the next morning when they were working in groups.

Whenever the prison guards enter the room to check, one of them will stand on the stone slab above the tunnel, or there are chairs and garbage bins placed on the stone slab, etc., in short, the prison guards cannot detect the abnormality, so that nothing is wrong.

Unexpectedly, their secret was inadvertently discovered by Hitler.

But it doesn't matter, how could Hitler report them.

Ten days later, at Berlin's Spandau railway station, Hitler and Tukhachevsky came to see off De Gaulle and Montgomery.

Hitler said to the two: "My adjutant will send you to the border, and the German troops will let you go, and you will have to dress up in rags, so that when you meet the French army, you will say that you have escaped from prison." ”

Montgomery punched Hitler in the chest: "Don't be fools, we know." ”

"It's good to know." Hitler nodded.

"You are the one who captured me, and you are the one who let me go, what is your boy's conspiracy?" Montgomery didn't think much of Hitler as a man.

"You are all geniuses, and you should shine an unusual light in your respective fields, and you should not waste your time in prison." Hitler admired all three of them, and had the heart to win them over, how could he imprison them.

Watching de Gaulle and Montgomery step on the train, Hitler wondered what kind of situation they would have in the future, and would they still be marshal presidents?

Like Germany, will there be a Second World War in the future?

"Hey, what are you thinking?"

Tukhachevsky raised his palm and shook Hitler's eyes, interrupting his stunned moment, Hitler came to his senses, put his arm around Tukhachevsky's shoulders and said: "Let's go, I'll take you to Berlin Ostbahnhof to take the train." ”

Tukhachevsky's words reveal a bitter taste: "If it weren't for the civil war in my homeland and the need for my family, I would have stayed in Germany to work." ”

"I want you to work with me too."

Tukhachevsky was a sincere man, there was no city, and anyone wanted to be friendly with him. Tukhachevsky feels like a younger brother, Tukhachevsky is 24 years old, Hitler is 28 years old, and Hitler can indeed be his older brother in terms of age.

Together with Hitler's other lieutenant, a total of three people got on the tram and went to Berlin Ostbahnhof to ask the adjutant to take Tukhachevsky back to the Soviet-German border.

"Come to Germany when the civil war is over." Hitler said in French, French used to be regarded as an elegant language by Europeans, so many people learn French, and French is also a language that both people speak, so the communication between the two has always been French.

"Definitely!"

Tukhachevsky poked his head out of the train window and waved goodbye to Hitler.

Hitler was melancholy for a while, and the feeling of being with Tukhachevsky was completely different from the feeling of being with Montgomery and De Gaulle, and the feeling of Montgomery and De Gaulle was admiration and reverence, wanting to be close to historical heroes, and even wanting to recruit. Tukhachevsky was treated differently, he was treated with the same affection as his brother, and he felt free to be with him.

"We'll see you later!" Hitler said silently.

After bidding farewell to the three, Hitler did not return to Hull Straße, but went directly to Bremen by train.

"It's been a good year."

Walking on the docks in Bremen, Dembuch and Hitler inspected a shipment of bicycles and perfumes to be exported to the United States.

"We set up a fleet and shell company in the Netherlands, and now we sell our goods all over the world, instead of selling only domestically, as in previous years. Coupled with the fact that front-line fighters have started to use perfume, we are sure to make a lot of money this year. ”

Dembucci's dancing speech was full of energy, and he was full of energy, as if he was doing a great business.

Hitler said: "The market needs of the United States and France should be very large, and we must send people to expand the markets of these two countries, and focus on them." ”

France is known as the romantic capital, and the United States is an emerging power, and perfume should be able to sell well in both countries.

"Well, I've already sent someone, and I also focused on Japan, I heard that Japanese singers have a well-developed culture, and perfume should also sell well." Dembucci analyzed.

As the second largest commercial port in Germany, the port of Bremerhaven has many ships coming in and out, all of which are ships from neutral countries. There were countless porters on the docks carrying goods, and the perfumes and bicycles of the Hillamen company were packed into countless large boxes and loaded onto a large Dutch-flagged ship by several porters.

Hitler saw that it was very troublesome for these porters to carry goods, or was it more convenient for the all-mechanical docks of later generations, and they could just be lifted by cranes at the docks, huh? By the way, why not use containers? He asked Dembuch, "Have you ever heard of something called a container?" It is to pack everything in a tin box and then lift it to the ship through a dock crane, which can also be transported by train, so it is very convenient to transport. ”

Dembutch imagined what Hitler was talking about, and suddenly said: "I know the container you are talking about, and when I went to the United States to inspect the market in March this year, I saw this thing on the American dock, and I heard that the United States has just started to do it." ”

It turned out that container transportation as early as more than 100 years ago, the British Anderson first put forward the idea of container transportation, but the process at that time could not keep up, and the demand for containers was not large, so the container did not develop at all, and after a few decades, the container was just like a coal container, which was convenient for transportation, until this year, the American railroad began to try out container transportation, and the container transportation mode spread throughout the world in the next ten years.

However, at that time, the dead weight of containers accounted for more than 25% of the total volume of freight transport. At the same time, the way countries handle containers is even more troublesome than bulk shipments.

At that time, many containers had metal rings at the top four corners, and dock workers had to climb on the containers and hook them with hooks when hoisting, and dock workers still needed to carry the containers in place after they were hoisted into the ship's hold. Moreover, there will be idle space in the container, and the goods still need to be unloaded after arriving at the port, stacked in the transit warehouse, and transported back empty. In international trade, customs taxes both goods and containers, and it costs money to ship empty containers back. In addition, the competition between railway, highway and maritime transportation has led to their separation from each other, and it is difficult to effectively connect the transportation process. These factors make the advantages of container transportation not be well played, and the development is extremely slow.

This changed until after World War II by a figure named Malcolm McLean, the father of the world's containers.

He invented the storage and packing container, which solved the historical problem of slow loading and small cargo accumulation, so that each ship increased the volume of each ship by six times compared with the previous one, and the loading and unloading time at the terminal was greatly shortened, from days to hours.

Moreover, the introduction of water and land transportation has greatly improved the efficiency of transportation, and Malcolm McLean has become a great man of the century in one fell swoop, and has been listed as one of the 10 people who have changed the world since 1950!

Yes!

Ten people who changed the world!

Although Hitler did not know the knowledge of containers, as long as he worked hard and relied on experience, he should be able to achieve efficient container transportation.

He said loudly: "We also want to engage in container transportation, and we must do a good job of research and development, the current container is wooden, we have to replace it with iron sheets." ”

Dembuch hesitated: "But the iron sheet is very heavy, and the weight of the iron container itself accounts for a quarter of the cargo." ”

Hitler said: "We should be able to solve the problem of a very heavy iron sheet with a thinner iron sheet, and we need to cooperate with the steel mill for this, and we need good design." There is also the need for combined transportation by sea and land, the freight train is driven directly to the wharf, and the container is loaded and unloaded with a dock bridge crane, so that the efficiency must be increased, in short, a research institute will be set up for me to specialize in containers. ”

For things that can make money, Dempucci is naturally full of interest, saying that he will study it carefully after he goes back, and he will definitely study the container within a month.

Dembucci swore such a promise, and Hitler was relieved.
