Strike, see strike!

This time the strike was no longer the previous unorganized or small group organized petty fight, but a large-scale and extremely violent strike action.

Lübeck is a historic city in northern Germany, with many old buildings dating back to the 11th century, and in addition to various Gothic buildings, Baroque and Renaissance buildings are still well preserved.

In addition to being an ancient city, Lübeck is also a seaside city, a very commercial city, and a large shipbuilding city.

In fact, Lübeck was Germany's largest port on the Baltic coast. Because of its geographical relationship, it can form maritime trade with Denmark, Sweden, Norway and other Nordic countries.

After the war began, because the Second German Reich depended on the few countries that were still able to trade normally, the daily cargo throughput of the port of Lübeck was much greater than it was before the war.

Now, classical, Gothic, baroque, rococo, different styles, beautiful, people can see a little nostalgia for the beauty of the past, the ancient and full of history of the city has lost its usual gentleness, a kind of flame called revolution is burning. There was a hot and uneasy feeling everywhere in the city, first with the shipyards taking the lead, and then with organized strikes throughout the city.

The seaport of Lübeck was the most affected by the strikes, where merchant ships from Norway and Sweden were squeezed into the harbor because there was no one to load or unload their goods, and the workers not only refused to load and unload the goods, but some armed workers even tried to seize the ships, causing some small clashes.

Leach's brigade was 15 miles from Lübeck and was stationed on a flat field on the outskirts of the city.

Originally, the barracks was 5 miles outside the suburbs, but the local citizens hated to hear the guns and cannons in the barracks, and the mayor protested, and after Li Qi got the order from the War Department, he had to move the stationing of the troops 10 miles out.

Now the mayor and police chief of Lübeck are rushing to the barracks by car, and they need the army now, immediately, immediately, as soon as possible!

"Those damn guys, no one is going to provoke them, why do you have a good life, why do you do something like that!" The mayor, a man in his sixties, wore a gentleman's suit and had a look of anger on his face: "We have not carried out any oppression, and even under our coordination, the wages are still paid every week, and the rations have never been interrupted, how can they do that!" ”

Lübeck is a trading port connecting several countries in Northern Europe, and it is indeed much richer in terms of materials than some inland cities. Because it is one of the few large ports in Germany that is still operating for trade and exchange, in order not to cause chaos and to ensure stability, the rationing system can still maintain abundant supplies.

However, in many cases, it is not enough to suppress a heat by maintaining something, especially when the heat is called revolutionary. Some demagogues incite verbally, and people are always easily influenced by social phenomena and difficult lives, and listen to the instigators to join in some events that they don't know whether they are right or wrong. It's only when it's all over that some of them wonder why they joined in with a brain fever at the time.

The mayor was cursing, and the police chief was sweating.

For many, the strikes and all sorts of violent marches happened so suddenly, as if the floodgates of hell had been suddenly opened, catching too many people off guard. The Chief of Police clearly falls into this category.

"Will they help?" The police chief, who was in his forties, kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, and when he wiped it off, some of it immediately came out, and he said, "After all, we don't have a relevant appointment order!" ”

Andreas. Fane. Felix was the name of the old mayor, and he said sullenly: "Unexpected moments, special moments, shouldn't they fulfill the responsibilities of a soldier?" To be honest, he didn't have a bottom in his heart.

They had telegraphed Berlin before their departure, and learned that it was not only Lübeck that was in turmoil, but almost the whole country was in a hot and dry upheaval. Andreas. Fane. Felix, in his capacity as mayor of Lübeck, asked for assistance from the garrison stationed on the outskirts of the city, and the Chancellery responded that it was necessary to communicate with the War Department. Fauxie, the two of them got in a car and rushed to the barracks.

Although the barracks were only 15 miles from the city, the mayor and the chief of police did not go so smoothly along the way, and the city was full of marchers, shouting all sorts of inexplicable slogans, which at first sounded very similar to the Soviet in the East, which caused panic on the faces of some of the middle-class people watching and the mayor and police chief in the car.

Some of the marchers pulled up signs with a name written on them, which was "Carl. Liebknecht". Other slogans were mostly anti-war and a call to unite the working class and the proletarians.

Cal. Liebknecht was one of the founders of the German Bolshevik Party, a leader of the German youth movement, and a member of parliament who ran for election several times. The most brilliant and powerful time was when he accused Krupp of using bribery, bribery and other means to collude with the army and navy generals to conspire to start a war, forcing the court to hold a trial and convict the employees of Krupp as "guilty".

This time the German nationwide strike, it was really Karl. Liebknecht and Rosa. An act of the Spartacist League formed by Luxembourg. It's just that because the mutiny in Wilhelmshaven was not led by the Spartacist League, it was an emergency, and they wanted to use the mutiny in Wilhelmshaven to gain the support of the soldiers, and they had to start in a hurry.

On June 29, 1918, at 15:16 p.m., Litchie met the mayor of Lübeck, Andreas, in the barracks. Fane. Felix and Police Chief Deem. Faulksey.

"I was not given any orders to lead the troops into the city."

"Lieutenant Colonel, I'm not ordering you, I'm asking you, as an old man who loves the city, not as mayor. They are going on violence and are plunging the city into riots. Now, only you can stop them. ”

"I'm so sorry, I ......"

"Lieutenant Colonel, would you like to watch the city burn down by those thugs? Check it out! The beacon smoke of the city, she is being lit by thugs! ”

In the beautiful coastal city, black smoke is indeed rising in many parts of it, and it is not the exhaust of a factory, but the setting of fire in the riots.

Mob? Richie, of course, knew that those people were thugs, and thugs who would take control of the central government in the coming year.

Li Qi also wanted to send troops into the city, after all, it might be a great opportunity to earn prestige, quell riots in a city, and stop some people from doing anything wrong, which would become political capital in the future.

But...... This is Germany, not any other country, even if it is on the verge of the collapse of the current empire, as a soldier acting without orders, there is a more than 75% chance that Li Qi will eat guns in the future! Either the Socialists shot him, or the Junkers who still held the military power in the back shot him!

So! Litch needs an order, from the War Office or the General Staff in Berlin, with the right to mobilize any one of the soldiers!
