In fact, it was not the Kaiser and the Führer who liked to paddle, it was the support they received that decided that many things were difficult to carry out even if they knew it.

The Kaiser was in a better situation, although he was also controlled by the capitalist consortium of economic lifelines, but didn't he still have a bunch of kingdoms and nobles? It's just that during the First World War, because I didn't have relevant experience, I didn't do that in the early stage, and it seemed a little late to wait for a little experience to do it later.

The Führer's situation is terrible. His rise depended on the financial support of the capitalists, and after coming to power, a series of economic reforms trapped the funds.

In the early days of his power, the Führer needed huge sums of money to change the situation in Germany after the defeat of the war, to win votes with economic improvement and employment opportunities, and to gain the support of the people in order to do more. Since it is an abnormal dependence, it is necessary to satisfy the demands of the capitalists in some aspects, and the simplest one is to guarantee the profits of the capitalist factories, so that the wartime economy can be ......

Rich's repeated requests to write to the War Office were finally answered, and he was asked to arrive at the War Office on William Avenue on August 15.

On a sunny morning, Richie came to the War Department on a noteworthy day.

Even during the war, the alert in Germany itself was not very high, and there were not even guards in front of the army department. Li Qi walked into the War Department, and there was a front desk in front of him, and when he walked over, the busy people didn't pay attention at all, and waited for a few knocks on the front desk before turning their eyes.

"Major?" The lieutenant was visibly stunned when he saw Richie, and probably recognized Richie. He asked a little excitedly, "Is there anything I can do for you?" ”

"I came to see Feng. Colonel Kenloster. Richie added with a smile: "Our appointment is at 10 o'clock this morning." ”

The lieutenant quickly looked up the records of the appointment, he said a few words to the person next to him, stood up and said respectfully to Richie, "Major, please come with me." ”

The office building of the War Department is not small, and most of the officers who walk back and forth are officers above the rank of lieutenant, and the colonel-level regiments that are rarely seen in other places are also everywhere.

Around the corner, Richie was confronted by Wa~Er~Te. Feng. Brauchitsch bumped into, and Wa~er~t. Feng. Brauchitsch has become a lieutenant colonel.

Wa~er~ter. Feng. Brauchitsch seemed stunned for a moment when he saw Rich, nodded his head as a greeting, and then staggered away.

The corridors are very deep and secluded, and there are many rooms, and if you look at the door number, you can see all kinds of strange things, such as the archives, and even the dispatch room for potatoes, cigarettes, horses, and so on.

After the knock on the door, the lieutenant who led the way turned to look at Richie and whispered, "Major, I often listen to your broadcasts, and there are also ...... pictures you cut out of the newspaper", he said this, and a voice appeared in the door.

"I'm presumptuous, I'm sorry. Can you sign it for me if you have the chance? The lieutenant opened the door and reported inside, "Colonel, Major Richie has come." ”

Feng. Kenloster was a slightly chubby middle-aged man, and on the side of his desk stood an ensign who looked like an acolyte, both of whom were looking at Richie as he walked slowly into the room.

Until Li Qi stood still, Feng. Kenloster stood up and walked to the side, poured two cups of coffee, waved his hand to the ensign who looked like an attendant, handed the coffee in his right hand to Richie, and said, "Major, you have given us a big problem. ”

Li Qi and Feng. Kenloster had actually met more than once, and they even had a good time at one of the parties.

Li Qi didn't stay in Berlin for a long time, but every time he returned to Berlin, he had one drinking party after another. For some purposes that are not yet ulterior for the time being, he has been getting to know as many people as possible, and his contacts are naturally expanding more and more, including some upper-class figures in the army and some capitalists.

Feng. Kenloster is a superintendent of the War Department, responsible for the review of personnel on the front line, and has the authority to assign idle personnel. He looked at Li Qi with some complexity and said, "According to your decision, you will return to the front line. Any idea what that means? ”

Richie just sat quietly, and he made such a decision after careful consideration.

Originally, according to the arrangement, Li Qi should have stayed at the staff headquarters in Berlin and became a staff officer. But Litchie was only a major and didn't have much of a background. How many majors are there in the General Staff Headquarters? And then how many of them have any real power? Even if a person like him, even if he has been advertised as a hero, and has come up with a successful big action plan, and then is still a ......baron, what can he do in the staff headquarters? There is actually a very, very limited amount of what can be done!

The General Staff Headquarters is the stronghold of a group of Junkers, and it is not possible for the Kaiser to let the General Staff Headquarters operate according to his own will, which onion is Li Qi?

"Baron." Feng. Kenroster said with a little pity: "You got your wish, you will return to the front line of the Western Front, but ......", paused and said in a tone of regret: "You will not know what you have missed." Seeing that Li Qi didn't mean to ask, he smiled before continuing in a businesslike tone: "Major, your order has come down." You'll go to the 1st Army and become a staff officer at its headquarters. ”

Li Qi picked up Feng from the table. Ken Roster pushed the order, looked at it and smiled and thanked him.

"Although the shameless guys have repeatedly denied that there are generals who have been captured by us, they are quite weak in denial when there are photographs to testify to." Feng. Kenloster stared at Richie with indescribable regret: "Seriously, we agree that you should play a more important role than just like a normal major." Before going to the front, you should first go to see Crown Prince William, which is the crown prince's personal request. ”

Crown Prince William? Li Qi nodded and agreed. It's just that he is a little confused, most of the 1st Army and the 2nd Army are actually the source of troops on the Bavarian side, and the current influence on the two armies is also the Bavarian King ~ Prince, should I also see the Bavarian King ~ Prince, right?

However, Richie didn't know one thing, the King of Bavaria ~ Prince Ruprecht. Maria. Lyutpod. Ferdinand came to Berlin this time because he was promoted to field marshal, and after that, the Bavarian king~prince did not return to the front again, but went back to the Kingdom of Bavaria. Crown Prince Wilhelm was different, the eldest son of Wilhelm II would soon go to the Western Front and command several army groups to fight.

Li Qi is listening to Feng. Kenloster had only learned about the above, and he was very happy about it, because he knew that Prince William had a good sense of himself, and maybe he could hold this thick thigh?
