Chapter 481: Mediterranean Storm (38)
Both material civilization and spiritual civilization must be grasped with both hands, and both hands must be firm!
For a new generation of immigrants like the Donghua Empire, which was founded less than five years ago, political stability and social harmony are the top priorities of the government departments. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the current era of extreme spiritual and cultural entertainment projects, nothing can bring people a strong visual impact and soul baptism like making a good movie.
A series of entertainment programs such as "red songs, red movies, and red TV" will enable the vast number of African people to increase their knowledge and accelerate the process of integrating into the Chinese-speaking civilization, which will definitely be a win-win effect for the East China Empire and the African Union.
Observing that the emperor seemed to be in a good mood now, Canaris cautiously changed the subject: "Your Majesty, the Junker nobles want to let the German royal family retreat, and hope to get the help and support of our Great Donghua Empire. ”
"The Kaiser wants to retreat?!" Cheng Gong was obviously a little surprised and asked, "How many people in the Junker officer corps support this proposal?" ”
"The vast majority support!" Canaris nodded affirmatively and replied: "More than eighty percent of the senior generals and junior corps of the Wehrmacht want to restore the glory of the royal family!" ”
"If the German imperial family had checked and balanced Hitler, I think Hitler would have been more cautious in many decisions than before." Cheng Gong muttered to himself as if he was too void:
"If there had been a German imperial family before the war, Hitler's 'Barbarossa Plan' might have been questioned by the Kaiser. It would be better for Hitler's power to be limited, otherwise the Third Reich, which united Europe, might create problems for the Great Donghua Empire. ”
Canaris obviously seemed to be inspired by some kind of encouragement, and said with bright eyes: "Your Majesty, with Hitler's character, if his power cannot be checked, no one knows what kind of path he will take the Third Reich on."
Wechen once had a long talk with Rommel, and Rommel was also quite worried about the current situation in Germany. If it were not for the emperor's intervention to mediate the Soviet-German armistice, with the strategic depth and war potential of the Soviet Union, Germany could have been dragged down. ”
Cheng Gong pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Rommel should be living a very leisurely life in South Africa now. ”
"It is true that Rommel does not have any pressure of war at the moment, but he is very worried about the future of Germany."
"He said that Germany's war potential was not as strong as it now seemed," said Canaris. The victory in the early battlefield battle does not determine the final victory or defeat of the war. ”
"Hehe, it seems that Rommel is one of the few sober people in Germany at present!" Cheng Gong smiled and nodded, and said: "Starting a war against the Soviet Union before completely surrendering Britain is one of the biggest decision-making mistakes Hitler made.
With the current political situation in Germany, it is estimated that only by re-establishing the Kaiser can Hitler have some scruples. William, you can tell Crown Prince William on my behalf, and if he is interested, I welcome the family to Crete for a vacation. ”
"The Emperor Shengming!" Canaris excitedly saluted Cheng Gongxing.
It seems that in Canaris's heart, there is still an inexplicable concern for the return of imperial power in Germany.
……
On the island of Baden-Württemberg in eastern Germany, about twenty kilometers south of Tübingen, there is an imposing old castle full of heroic masculinity.
Here, the birthplace of the Hohenzollern family, Hohenzollern Castle, one of the two most famous castles in Germany.
In the depths of the castle, Crown Prince Wilhelm looked at the statue of Frederick the Great in front of him, and stood motionless for more than an hour.
The news from Berlin that the Austrian corporal, who now controlled the whole of Germany, had a strong resistance to the revival of the German imperial family, which filled the hopeful Crown Prince Wilhelm with anger and unwillingness.
The German Empire was about to unify the whole of Europe, and such an unprecedented glory had nothing to do with the German Imperial Family, and as the crown prince, how could he Friedrich Wilhelm Victor August Ernst be indifferent.
Without the support of the royal family and the Horensochen family, how could that humble Austrian corporal lead the Nazi Party to become the largest ruling party in Germany?
If the royal family did not return to Germany to take power, the body of his father, Wilhelm II, could not be transported back to the cemetery of the Horensochen family for reburial.
Until the moment of his death, my father was obsessed with the return of the Hohenzollern royal family to Germany. As a son of man, if he can't fulfill his father's only wish, what face will he have to inherit the honor of the royal family, and what face will he have to lead the Hohenzollern family to create glory.
The current political landscape in Germany was dominated by Adolf Hitler and his Nazi Party, and the power of the Junker aristocracy and the officer corps was repeatedly suppressed by Hitler.
In order to revive the glory of their respective families, and in order to extract more power and benefits from Hitler, the Junker nobles thought of the banner of the Hohenzollern royal family.
Crown Prince William, of course, knew that the Junker aristocracy wanted to use the royal family. But he also wanted to use the influence of the Junker aristocracy in Germany and Europe to restore the dynasty.
Crown Prince Wilhelm wanted to be restored, but he did not want to see the current good situation in Germany affected by the struggle for power with Hitler, let alone the repetition of Germany's defeat in World War I.
Looking at the current situation in Germany, without external intervention, the German imperial family wants to take some power away from Hitler, even if the Juncker officer corps wants to plan a military coup, and its success is very small.
There is no such thing as good or evil in political struggle, and its essence is a naked competition of interests.
Crown Prince Wilhelm was not optimistic about anti-Nazi organizations in Germany. At this time, it is definitely not a wise move to go head-to-head with Hitler's Nazi Party.
The Hohenzollern royal family did want restoration, but if it was used by the British and Soviets to divide Germany and create civil strife, Crown Prince Wilhelm would rather not restore than be the culprit for Germany's defeat again.
The British, the Soviets, and the defeated French, were constantly plotting to use Hitler's political enemies to create internal strife in Germany. As a result, members of the Hohenzollern family became important targets for the Allies to co-opt and exploit.
"Your Royal Highness, Marshal Witzleben is here again, do you see it or not?"
Victor, the great butler of Hohenzollern Castle, hurried over to interrupt Crown Prince William's thoughts.
"Is he alone?" Crown Prince William slowly turned around and asked with an indifferent expression.
"And Marshal Rommel, who controls the overall military and political situation in South Africa." Victor replied respectfully.
"Erwin Johannes Jurgen Rommel?" Crown Prince William's eyes were sharply condensed, and he asked with a straight face.
"Yes! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Victor nodded vigorously in the affirmative and replied, "He came to Baden-Württemberg in secret makeup." ”
"Take me to them!" Crown Prince William did not hesitate to raise his leg and leave.
Although Crown Prince Wilhelm was powerless in Germany, the eyes and eyes of the Hohenzollern family throughout Germany and Europe were enough for Crown Prince Wilhelm to know the situation in Germany well.
Three months ago, the former head of the German Military Intelligence Bureau, the former German Vice Admiral and now the director of the Central Intelligence Agency of the East China Empire, Canaris came to Hohenzollern Castle as a guest and had a long talk with Crown Prince Wilhelm.
If there is one country in the world today that has the greatest influence on Germany, it must be the Donghua Empire.
Canaris secretly revealed to Crown Prince William at that time that the reason why Rommel was able to gain a firm foothold in South Africa and quickly control the military and political situation of the three colonies of German South Africa, German Madagascar, and German Mozambique was inseparable from the support provided by the Donghua Empire.
With Crown Prince William's political acumen, of course, Canaris could be heard.
If Kaiser Wilhelm gains Rommel's allegiance, the Hohenzollern royal family's restoration plan to rebuild the German royal family may be recognized and supported by the Donghua Empire in the international community!
Looking at the many marshals and generals of the Wehrmacht, the most influential at present is Field Marshal Rommel, who was appointed governor of South Africa by Hitler.
Because in Rommel's hands not only had a powerful heavy mechanized corps and jet fighter pilots, but also had the command of the German Navy's Atlantic Fleet.
If Rommel swore allegiance to the royal family, it would be equivalent to Emperor Wilhelm having in his hands a powerful overseas army with a full range of land, sea and air forces. (To be continued.) )
