CHAPTER 34 34 Great Germany
"You can't afford that much money, Mr. Krupp. Accardo said with a smile.
Krupp thought Accardo was joking with him, and laughed: "Tell me! How much does it cost? I really want to dig you out of the Wehrmacht." ”
"Because of the use of newly designed glass bottles and a brand new production line, the Coca-Cola Company brings me about ...... every month in the United States Approximately $400,000 in revenue. Accardo stared at Krupp with a smile.
He stretched out a second finger: "BMW has orders from the Wehrmacht and the U.S. Army, and there is also business in China, which can earn about $200,000 a month." ”
Immediately after that, he ignored the shocked Krupp's expression and continued to say with a smile: "Lufthansa also has my shares, and the Mercedes-Benz car factory is also mine. I also have a perennial room in the mountain villa of the artillery tycoon Mr. Krupp, and tell me how much am I worth?"
Krupp opened his mouth in surprise and smiled: "You are the mysterious boss behind the Bailanhua Group? God, how did you discover so many potential companies and then integrate them together?"
He held Accardo's hand and trembled: "You are simply a business wizard!"
Accardo was a little embarrassed, and he wanted to say to the artillery king in front of him: if you go back in time from 2014, you can also remember those overwhelming multinational company advertisements.
Krupp was indeed blown away by Accardo today. Those assault rifles, general-purpose machine guns, mass-produced cost-reduced cannons, the idea of simplifying logistics, and the blueprints of the super tank made Krupp feel that Accardo was a treasure that could not be dug up.
"Colonel Accardo, I find that I have thoroughly admired you! Whatever you plan to do! I, Gustav Krupp, will support you in all directions and without reservation! Even if you go to hell for it!" That evening, just as Accardo was about to get up and leave, Krupp grabbed Accardo's hand and said in an excited voice: "You are the most admirable man I have ever met, and Krupp will stand firmly behind you and contribute all his strength to the reconstruction plan of your Wehrmacht!"
Accardo patted Krupp on the shoulder, smiled and ended the conversation between the two of them on this day: "Mr. Krupp, the Wehrmacht will also be your solid backing, let us work together for the rise of Germany." ”
......
On 13 November 1923, Colonel Arcardo Rudolph was transferred to the Office of the President as the Supreme Liaison Officer of the Wehrmacht in the Office of the President and as Chief of Staff to the President in Military Affairs. With this status, as a major, he began to sit at a table with many veteran generals to discuss issues, and controlled a large amount of voice within the Wehrmacht.
"Colonel Accardo, you seem to have a lot on your mind lately, don't you know if there is anything I can do to help?" asked Minister Streisman, sitting in Accardo's office, smiling with a coffee cup.
"There are some Nazis within the Wehrmacht, although they are still very weak, but this is a disturbing sign. Accardo rubbed his brow and said, "In order to curb this dangerous thought, I recently fired a second lieutenant and warned a lieutenant that a year ago there was no faith in the army, but a year later I had to deal with the infiltration of the Nazi faith. ”
Minister Streismann put the coffee on the coffee table, and seemed unconcerned about Accardo's worries, and said in a lazy tone: "Colonel Accardo, you may be too concerned about the small Nazi party, you must know that we have many enemies, such as the haunting Allied Arms Control Committee, the so-called German Socialist Workers' Party is only a small problem. ”
In another 10 years, you big men will be wiped out by the Nazis, and in the end there will be no bones left! I don't have your optimism, I just want to strangle the unstable factor in the cradle. Accardo thought a little annoyed.
"So far, I haven't made a mistake in my decision-making, so you just have to help me figure it out. Accardo had no choice but to use this excuse to prevaricate in order to dispel Minister Streisman's concerns.
"It's as if you haven't changed the weapons and equipment of the Wehrmacht until now, and you are building bridges and paving roads with millions of dollars in weapons purchases. You also planned this a long time ago?" asked Minister Streisman.
Accardo nodded: "I'm used to making a careful plan, and then experiencing the feeling of being in control. ”
"It's a good feeling, unlike our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which can only resign itself to fate for any negotiations. Minister Streisman said, spreading his hands.
Accardo smiled: "One day, you will experience the feeling of being in control, and those who were once arrogant can only bend down and bow in front of you. ”
"I love talking to you, and it always makes me very happy to talk to you!Believe me, Colonel Accardo, I don't know why, no matter how arrogant you may say, I feel in my heart that you can achieve it. Minister Stlesman said.
"It takes a lot of people to work together to make these things happen. Accardo nodded: "Including your efforts! Let's help me think about how to stop the infiltration of the Wehrmacht by Hitler's Nazi Party." ”
"Of course, it's simple. Minister Stlesman said with a smile, then lifted the coffee pot and poured coffee into his empty cup: "If you pour coffee into an empty cup, you will find that it is very easy to do. ”
He poured a full cup of coffee, then looked at Accardo and continued to pour coffee into the cup, allowing it to overflow the cup and let it flow to the tray under the cup: "But if you pour coffee into a full cup, it's very difficult. ”
"What do you mean?" Accardo's eyes lit up, as if an idea had flashed through his mind, but he didn't catch it.
He had to admire these adults who were engaged in politics, they seemed to be born with an intriguing head. Although Accardo has the historical experience and scientific and technological foreknowledge of his previous life, he can solve many problems, but in terms of politics and scheming, he is indeed not as good as these old monsters.
Seeing that Accardo didn't speak, Minister Stresman laughed: "Colonel Accardo, don't worry. You're a soldier after all, and you probably don't have so many twists and turns in your belly. ”
He knocked on Erlang's leg and said very casually: "The German * team has always not allowed faith, a few years ago you were only loyal to the emperor, and now the Wehrmacht is only responsible to the government, but the Wehrmacht lacks such an object of allegiance as the emperor, and their faith is also missing! Of course, it is very easy for the Nazi Party to enter the Wehrmacht to occupy such an area of faith gap, and if we find a new faith for them, then it will not be so easy for the Nazi Party to infiltrate the Wehrmacht. ”
"A new faith?" Accardo nodded, then shook his head again, "Sickert won't allow that. ”
Minister Stlesmann laughed: "But Colonel Accardo Rudolph allowed it! With your covert support, and secretly developing, it must be much faster than the Nazi Party, which has no support and can only develop secretly." ”
Accardo was silent, the temptation was indeed very great, if he formed a party and then used it to control the Wehrmacht, then first, he could firmly grasp the command of the Wehrmacht, and second, he could prevent Hitler's Nazi Party from expanding and developing unscrupulously in the Wehrmacht.
"When, when, when. A knock at the door interrupted Accardo's train of thought, and Gehr walked in and immediately reported, "Colonel, Mr. Gustav Krupp is here. ”
"That's right! Listen to what Mr. Krupp has to say. Accardo smiled and stood up.
Minister Stresmann also stood up: "I didn't expect the colonel to have a friendship with Mr. Krupp, and I feel more and more that following you is the right choice." ”
"I didn't expect the minister to be here too, haha. When Krupp walked in, he saw Streisman and the two shook hands with each other, and then Krupp smiled and said, "It seems that Colonel Accardo is busy, and I didn't come at the right time." ”
"No! you're here at the right time. Accardo waved his hand and said, "We are discussing a matter, you can also listen to it, and see what you think of the things we are discussing." ”
"Then I'll listen to it. Krupp said with a smile, and sat down on the couch with Minister Streesmann, listening to Accardo repeat Minister Streisman's vision.
"There's another good thing about this! Colonel Accardo Rudolph, there are many, many of your friends and followers, who are no longer confined to one part of the Wehrmacht, there are senior officials in the Foreign Office, Minister Streisman, there are arms dealers like me, there are Wehrmacht, there are businessmen, there are politicians, you need, or we need an organization that will bring us all together! Make this group stronger in order to maintain the collective interests of our group. Krupp listened to Accardo's account and nodded in agreement: "We need such a group. ”
Two days later, Krupp took over a small hotel in Berlin and held a private party in it, which was attended by more people than Krupp had imagined, because not only businessmen, soldiers, politicians, and officials, but also scientists, engineers, and aristocrats.
Accardo took the stage and gave a very short speech, consisting of only one sentence: "We are gathered here today to prepare for the revitalization of Germany with your lives, and to welcome you to the Greater German Party!"
On this day, Accardo was elected chairman of the Greater Deutsche Party, and the main members of the Greater German Party included Accardo's secretary and guard Gehr, Major Guderian of the Wehrmacht's Ministry of Transport, Hulk, the head of the 103rd Regiment, and Kreuzer, the head of the 105th Regiment. Businessmen such as Reinhardt, vice president of the White Lanhua Group, Einstein, who defined the theory of relativity, and politicians such as Foreign Minister Gustave Streismman.
At this moment, the Greater German Party was officially founded, and as soon as it was born, it became a powerful group because of the background of its members.
