"Lieutenant Colonel Accardo, I find that I can't see through you more and more. Sickert sat in the rickety car and looked at Accardo in the passenger seat.

"How should I understand what you mean by that, is it a compliment or a reprimand?" asked Accardo, smiling back.

"As far as I know, you were just a private 3 years ago, not even a junior officer, and the file says that you were an orphan, your father was only a secondary school teacher, and your mother was a servant, all of whom died at the beginning of the war. I'm sorry, but I'm not trying to uncover your scars. However, the talent you show is even better than that of the scheming guys in the old Army Staff Headquarters. Sickert said a little tiredly, "I sent someone to investigate you, but I really don't know where you learned these abilities. ”

"Innate. Accardo replied with a smile: "I firmly believe that Germany will be strong, so I will do my best." ”

"A lot of people work hard, but not as high as you, Lieutenant Colonel Accardo. Sickert closed his eyes, as if waiting for Accardo's plausible explanation.

"I was stationed in Hamburg for a year, studying ancient China, and unfortunately, I understood it and studied it thoroughly, so I knew more than anyone else and saw the future farther than anyone else. As Accardo spoke, he saw Sickt open his eyes and stare at him, a look of shock and curiosity.

"So I think that I was sent into this world by God to revitalize the Wehrmacht! Accardo said in a firm tone.

Sickert looked at Accardo for a moment, then laughed: "Germany needs someone like you, and I will write a letter to Field Marshal Hindenburg, and he will nominate you for promotion to the rank of Colonel of the Wehrmacht, congratulations to you Accardo Rudolph." ”

"Thank you, General Sickert!," said Accardo with a Prussian standard military salute.

"And I like what you said to President Ebert today!" Sickert said triumphantly, "I like what you said about the Wehrmacht on my side!"

The next day, President Ebert, under both internal and external pressure, declared a state of emergency, elevating General Sickert's authority and giving Sickert vast powers to a near-dictator.

Sickert did not live up to President Ebert's expectations, and immediately ordered the 1st Wehrmacht Division to leave Berlin to suppress right-wing elements in Bavaria, an action that was supported and welcomed by local patriots and the masses.

The locals warmly welcomed the arriving Wehrmacht, showed the way for the servicemen, and helped them catch the local right-wingers. With the help of these people, the Wehrmacht's actions in Bavaria were so smooth that they could almost be described as successes.

The photo of the Wehrmacht riding a tall horse on the road was also reprinted by reporters from various countries, and for a time it became a propaganda poster for the Wehrmacht.

France was completely speechless, and the rumors claimed by the French side that Germany secretly manufactured tanks and cannons have not been confirmed, on the contrary, the equipment equipped by the Germans such as bicycles and war horses is indeed very backward.

The Wehrmacht gave the impression that there were no tanks, no artillery, no cars, and that the troops were basically bicycles and horses, no different from the level at the outbreak of the First World War, and that it did not look like a modern army at all, and even its backward neighbor Poland was a hundred times stronger than the Wehrmacht.

As a result, after the Wehrmacht's operation in Bavaria, the Allied Arms Control Committee was cut by a third by the British and Belgian demands, and the most hawkish France was forced to withdraw nearly half of its military observers.

Germany was allowed to produce civil aircraft, to develop new armored vehicles to equip the police with riots in various places, and to have more guns and ammunition to deal with the increasingly dangerous German-French border.

The French troops were forced to retreat from the Ruhr area, and the head of the operation, Colonel de Gaulle, who was also a Tiyì, was demoted and assigned to the newly formed French tank unit as a deputy regimental commander, and the French government unconditionally granted amnesty to the sentenced artillery lord Gustav Krupp on Christmas Day.

The Germans could not wait to launch two destroyers and form two "new" infantry divisions within the next three months. In addition, in agreement with Britain and Belgium, the terms of the number of Wehrmacht personnel were amended, and the number of Wehrmacht troops was increased from 100,000 to 120,000, and the navy was increased from 15,000 to 17,000.

Don't underestimate this little bit of revision, historically this revision is in fact non-existent, this painstaking negotiation was arranged by Accardott and Sickert personally arranged for Foreign Minister Gustav Streismann to carry out a diplomatic offensive against France, although the contract has not changed much, but this revision is very important.

First, as a result of this revision, the IDF's arsenal, which had been decreasing, began to slowly strengthen, which increased the total workload of the Coalition Arms Control Commission, which had only been destroying weapons, dozens of times over, because they had to frequently calculate the quantitative difference between destruction and manufacture - which, combined with the reduction in their numbers, made oversight more difficult.

Second, because of the increase in the number of Wehrmacht, the container of the Wehrmacht carrying Accardo was enlarged, which also made the water deeper and drowned, which freed the Wehrmacht from more supervision and restraint, and it is recorded that by the end of 1923, the actual number of Wehrmacht troops had reached 230,000, about twice the total number of Germany.

In November 1923, Accardo was ordered to go to Bavaria to suppress an armed uprising led by Germany*, and this appointment was a complete formality, Accardo was sent to Bavaria, he had just been ordered to board the train from Berlin, and the troops under his command had already begun to move, and Accardo had just arrived at the office prepared for him by the new 2nd Division of the Wehrmacht in Bavaria, and the document rewarding him was mailed.

Because of his "excellence in this repression", he was nominated by Hindenburg and approved by the Wehrmacht Headquarters, officially appointing him a Colonel of the Wehrmacht.

......

In the Coalition Arms Control Commission, a young judicial officer who had just been transferred here was writing something at his desk.

"Lieutenant Sniese, there are some texts here, you can help give them to Colonel Grudo of Belgium! The young female officer put the text in her hand on the young man's table, and turned around to flirt with a handsome legal officer beside her.

The lieutenant named Sniese picked up the text and saw the news of Accardo's promotion to Colonel of the Wehrmacht written on the first page, and also saw the familiar face in the photo posted on the text Jiàn.

As he walked, he casually flipped through the thick stack of texts, frowning and taking the contents to heart, which seemed to be about Accardo on every page, and recorded in great detail Accardo's involvement in the Wehrmacht's suppression of Bavaria* in recent months.

And on the last page, it is mentioned that there was a mysterious phone call that had twice entered the office of the Coalition Arms Control Committee and reported the Wehrmacht. The pupils of Lieutenant Sniese's eyes contracted suddenly, and then he naturally closed the text and sent it to Colonel Grudo's office.

On November 5, 1923, Accardo, who was having breakfast in his office in Bavaria, received a phone call from Berlin.

"Colonel Accardo, I'm Major Gascol, congratulations on your promotion to colonel!" came Major Gascol's voice on the other side of the phone.

"Thank you. Accardo said with a smile.

On the other side of the phone, Major Gascol's voice suddenly became heavy: "The Falcon has sent back a message, someone within us has leaked the news, the last time Operation Rhino was forced to be carried out was because of one of the phone calls, and the other call was to remind the Arms Control Committee to keep an eye on you. ”

Accardo didn't speak, as if he was in a daze, and if it weren't for the sound of breathing, Major Gascol probably thought the phone was dropped. After about a few minutes, Accardo finally spoke: "Investigate the source of the call immediately! The Gestapo will also investigate internally! Get out this rat who betrayed the country!"

"Yes!" said Gascoll.

Hanging up, Accardo checked his pistol and shouted, "Gel, Gel, come in!"

Gehr walked in and stood up and saluted, "What's the matter?" Colonel. ”

"Prepare your pistols! Intelligence says we've been targeted by the Allied Arms Control Committee lately!Stay safe!" Accardo thought for a moment and continued, "Prepare your luggage! We're going to rush back to Berlin! I'm going to take care of the traitors myself." ”

"Yes!" Gel turned and walked out of Accardo's office.

Accardo rushed back to Berlin overnight, and at the train station, he called Hulk, the commander of the 103rd Regiment of the 15th Division, and Kreuzer, the commander of the 105th Regiment, who were stationed on the outskirts of Berlin, and the order was simple: "If you receive an order from Accardo, immediately drive into Berlin and use armored vehicles to control all important facilities and departments." ”

Afterwards, Accardo rushed with Gehr to the Wehrmacht General Headquarters, where he met General Sickert, who was waiting there.

"This discovery proves that our espionage work has been effective. Sickert began by praising Accardo's tack: "Your work of creating the Gestapo has been really successful. ”

"Nothing to praise, Your Excellency. Accardo frowned and said, "We just found a nail buried in our own bones." ”

At about 8 p.m., the results of the telephone bureau's investigation were finally sent to the Wehrmacht General Headquarters. And at this time, Accardo and Sickert were sitting together waiting for this result.

Major Gasco opened the folder, and was so shocked that he spoke a little incoherently: "Telephone, telephone, telephone is, from, from the president's secretary...... Hit in the office, hit the Coalition Arms Control Committee. ”

"What did you say?" Sickert stood up, looking a little blankly at Gascoll standing in front of him.
