Before leaving Tromsø and returning to the Netherlands, Bach sent four new assistants to Lynn as promised, two of whom were technical officers of the staff headquarters of the "vampire" commandos, one was an intelligence officer transferred from the German Espionage Bureau, and the other was a non-commissioned officer of radio technology who was proficient in operating a variety of communication equipment and was good at interception and decoding...... Cal. Titchmel. One year after the two first met, Turchmeier was still a 16-year-old introverted little Shota, and two years later, his childish face was a little more calm and confident. Judging by the changes that had taken place in him, Lynn felt that he had been right to leave him in North America to be trained by Bach, and that his slender and dexterous fingers were clearly more suitable for operating radio stations and cipher machines than for killing people with guns.

As the four new assistants, who have extensive experience in media manipulation, have not yet obtained a suitable new identity, they can only sail to Bremen like stowaways, where they will be identified through the Imperial Intelligence Station and their supporters, while Lynn will return directly to Amsterdam.

The four-week vacation was just exhausted, and in less than a month, the much-talked-about war situation took a subtle turn, with the Soviet forces seizing the strategic towns of old German East Prussia and eastern Poland taking positions conducive to the offensive, but their morale-boosting steel divisions remained on the Danzig-Toruń-Lodz line, and accordingly, the Western Allies suspended their strategic bombardment of the Soviet hinterland. As a result, the Great Plains of central and western Poland were dusty because of the construction of war fortifications by both sides, and rumors of an armistice were even more intense. It is widely believed that the morale of the soldiers was greatly damaged due to the continuous unfavorable fighting of the Western allies, and that the performance of the Soviet army on the frontal battlefield was dragged down by the bombing of the industrial base, and that both sides were actually unable to fight again. At this time, the biggest disagreement between the two sides is no longer the issue of ideological antagonism, but the questioning of each other's sincerity in armistice. The Soviet Union was reluctant to admit that they possessed the atomic bomb and had caused the nuclear explosion in the Norwegian Sea, and the American-British camp was unwilling to admit that they had anything to do with Stalin's assassination. It is said that the two sides have made concessions and plan to have a purely technical team composed of international physicists visit the nuclear project facilities in the Soviet Union, and once it is confirmed that the Soviet Union does not yet have the ability to produce nuclear weapons, the Western allies must fulfill and upgrade the memorandum of "not attacking the Soviet Union with nuclear weapons" to a formal agreement.

As the storm that swept through Europe subsided, the Dutch, fearful of the Soviet invasion, were apparently happy to see an armistice between the Eastern and Western camps on a front 600 kilometers from the Netherlands, which Lynn quickly felt when she returned to the Netherlands. After the agency was upgraded to an embassy, the number of staff increased a lot, but the work also became busy. With the establishment of the Papen Provisional Government, the situation in Germany has changed greatly, and the warming of the political atmosphere has brought new political opportunities, many Germans who emigrated to the Netherlands after the war began to apply to return to their homeland to settle down, while others who did not want to be far from their homeland and wanted to enjoy a peaceful life applied to move to the Netherlands.

The salary of the second counsellor is not low, the work is quite large, and many times he has to cope with the normal entertainment of diplomatic circles. Whenever he was at a banquet, with his young and handsome appearance and elegant and generous bearing to attract the attention of the opposite sex, Lynn would always remember the scenery of taking Dinah to travel around the business circles of European countries, he hoped that he could bring a beautiful wife with him on this trip, not only to take care of the family, but also to benefit from communication, and if he wins power in the future, he will also be able to enter and exit the pair openly, but this idea has long been dispelled by Bach, He used his personal experience and knowledge of the upper echelons of the empire to tell Lynn Dina and Mia that staying in Northern Europe was the best option for everyone. Sure enough, at the parting banquet, the Führer told Lynn about his political experience, especially hinting that single men had a special appeal to votes, and that the political struggle was no less dangerous than the battlefield, and Lynn had to keep Dinah's mother and daughter in Northern Europe as "hostages". …,

Lynn felt that it only took half a month to fully adapt to the work of second class political counselor, but the mission entrusted to him by history was not as simple as a low-level diplomat. Soon after, the German Reconstruction Party sent a liaison to give him his party membership card, party constitution and other relevant materials, and informed him to attend the upcoming party congress in Oldenburg. He will be formally elected as deputy leader of the party at this meeting, so it is important to be present in person.

A party with only tens of thousands of members holds a party convention, and Lynn imagines the scene probably. It's a rented tavern or small hall where a rabble of obedient people sits around the stage, the backbone performs on stage, and everyone raises their hands to vote in accordance with the rules, and that's it.

Oldenburg is located in northwestern Germany, just over 200 kilometers from Amsterdam. Baron Mayne took two days off and boarded a train bound for Germany. Border checks were somewhat more lenient than when he arrived in Holland with a mandate from the German Provisional Government, with the Germans in field-grey military shirts and puffy grey trousers replacing the Allied soldiers, wearing ship-shaped beanies and bolt-on rifles, carefully and courteously checking the documents of every passenger entering the country.

It was Lynn's turn to check on a silver-haired and blue-eyed young soldier, and although the ornament on his uniform was different from that of the Wehrmacht Army during the Third Reich, it was still easy to see his rank of corporal...... Well, one of my childhood dreams was to become a diplomat, but unfortunately it was destined to be just a dream. ”

Lynn put away her papers, smiled and asked the corporal, "Aren't soldiers good?" ”

The corporal replied to Lynn while checking the documents of the passengers in the next seat: "If it is simply to serve the country, it is the glory of every soldier, but we have to accept the command of the Western Allied Command, and when they feel that the front line is tight and the Germans are needed to resist the Soviet attack, they only need a second to make a decision."

Lynn understood the meaning of the words, but he could only respond lightly: "This will all change." ”

The corporal just smiled wryly and did not answer.

It was midday when we arrived in Oldenburg, and the sun was already scorching at the end of May. To Lynn's surprise, crowds of greeters waited outside the train station holding banners and waving small flags, a treatment that had never been enjoyed from the battlefield. Although the Mercedes factory began to resume production in 1946, production was far from comparable to that of the pre-war period, and the depressed economy affected the sales of these luxury cars. Blowing the cool air conditioning in the car, watching the slow pace of civilians working in the open air, Lynn felt more and more that this party only imitated the appearance of the former National Socialist Party and did not have the internal explosiveness. Just like the beautifully printed party constitution, which only roughly borrowed and revised the arguments and ideas used by the early National Socialist Party to attract the people, and lacked the content that kept pace with the times and really touched the soul, it is no wonder that it has developed for more than a year, and the scale is not as large as some local parties in Bavaria, and I really don't know why the top of the empire chose such a low-grade party to cooperate.

The party congress was held on a manor house in the southern suburbs of Oldenburg, and the walls, lawns and buildings were renovated, but judging by the construction waste piled up nearby, it did not survive Allied air raids during the war. Perhaps the organizers of the meeting were keen on family-style gatherings, or perhaps they deliberately set off the happy atmosphere of the party, the decoration and furnishings in the manor looked more like a typical Western-style wedding, with long tables piled up with sumptuous and delicious food and wine, and the smell of barbecued meat wafting in the wind. …,

Compared to the strict and serious military preparations of the Imperial team, everything here gave Lynn nothing but disappointment and disappointment. In front of the main building, he met the smiling leader of the Baath Party, the leader of the party, Franz Brown. Stupfher, a fat man as pot-bellied as Goering, dressed in an awkward black tuxedo, sees no majesty or skill in the leader, but rather a clown hired to perform a burlesque. Realizing that she was going to work side by side with such a group of people calling each other comrades, Lynn even wanted to think of it as a nightmare—the fat man and the ugly bugs would disappear from her eyes after dawn.

In the ensuing conversation, Lynn felt that he really lived up to his name by calling Stupford "the fat man with oily hair and pink face" in his heart, this guy had the sleek and cunning of a businessman, and his charming demeanor was tiresome but impossible to attack, but there seemed to be a few of his subordinates who seemed to have good minds and temperaments, judging from their powerful demeanor, it was estimated that they had changed their appearance to avoid the former SS personnel who were being hunted by the Allies, and their low-key posture in front of people also confirmed Lynn's judgment from the side.

After the lively dinner, more than 200 party representatives gathered on the lawn on the north side, and before boarding the wooden bench that had been set up in advance, the oily-haired party leader said to Lynn: "This election is just a formality, Mr. Horst has no need to worry at all, besides, everyone already knows that you are a great diplomat now, and everyone feels confident that you can have a deputy leader like you to lead the party building!"
