"No, no. The young man at the head stammered slightly, apparently intimidated by Accardo's momentum.

Accardo took a step forward and pointed to the Iron Cross on his chest with his left hand, the back of his left hand was covered with condensed scars, which looked terrifying, and he saw that all three of them took a small step back and spoke again: "The people here are heroes who are willing to shed their blood for this country, and you want to persuade them to accept humiliation for the sake of hypocritical peace?"

"Get out!" shouted Hitler, who had received reinforcements.

"Get out!" the wounded soldiers in the room were encouraged to accept that they were heroes, at least for now.

The young man standing in the chair took another step back, stepped on the air, and fell to the ground, causing a lot of laughter, and the three young men ran out of the hall of the wounded soldiers in laughter.

"Accardo!" shouted Hitler, who had received the vent, raised his right hand in the air.

The wounded soldiers shouted, "Accardo!"

There was a crunch, a steel lunch box was smashed to the floor, and Hitler, who was sitting next to Accardo, complained angrily: "These damned Bolsheviks! Someday, I'm going to arrest them all!"

"It's useless to get angry. Accardo smiled and said: "Any trend of thought has its own reason, and at this time when the war is fought, there are indeed not many people who support it. ”

"No! I'd rather die on the front than accept defeat! the British, the French, and the damned Americans!" said Hitler, waving his fists.

On the third day, November 9, 1918, an old priest rushed to Basvark, a small town in the province of Pomerania, to inform Hitler and others of the astonishing news as they prepared to return to the front.

"Gentlemen, I am the Rev. Borgle, and I regret to inform you that the Hohenzollern City Council no longer hangs the German crown, and Germany has become a republic. The old pastor said this with great difficulty.

"God, what are you talking about, His Majesty the Emperor, he ......" Hitler looked at the old priest a little sluggishly, Accardo saw that his lips trembled a little, and his voice was even a little distorted, people who had not experienced the imperial system would not understand this kind of heartfelt worship and obedience, but it was true that this mood was still there, and sometimes unforgettable.

Looking around, many people were already kneeling on the ground and weeping, some were yelling, and everyone was obviously very sad and sad about the collapse of the empire they had sworn allegiance to, and even more so in despair.

Yes, despair, Hitler was already desperate, the war on which he had high hopes was lost, his spiritual sustenance collapsed, and he did not even know why he still lived and why he breathed.

Accardo wanted to scold the old priest in front of him with an impassioned speech, as he had done a few days ago, but he found that all of them were pale in the face of the real history that was about to happen, and that the German emperor had indeed stepped down from the stage of his history, and the stage that belonged to the pinnacle of Germany had not yet begun.

Looking at the commotion of the crowd around him, Accardo muttered softly, "God, if I can survive on my knees, then please give me a long sword, I would rather hold it and die on the battlefield for freedom." ”

"Mr. Accardo, you are a true German, a true German. Hitler heard Accardo's muttering, and by this time his face was full of tears, and he could not speak silently, like a child who had lost his father.

Patting Hitler on the shoulder, Accardo stared at the crying corporal with a firm gaze, and shook the buttons and medals on the two men with great force: "We have to do something, or Germany will be ruined by those fools!"

"What can we do?" Hitler was a little confused, he had the idea of entering politics, but those aristocratic bigwigs and veteran politicians were so powerful that he could not defeat such a powerful opponent with the rank of corporal and the status of a civilian.

"We are in politics!" Accardo said firmly: "We can gain a lot of supporters by breaking the tradition of people! Unlike the old aristocrats and politicians, we have advanced ideas, and more importantly, we have firmer beliefs!"

"What belief?" Hitler looked at Accardo, puzzled.

"Germany will conquer the world!" Accardo pursed his lips and softly uttered an oath as heavy as Tarzan.

History will remember today, and on the night of this day, a corporal named Adolf Hitler wrote these words: "I hesitated whether to enter politics or continue to be an architect, but now I no longer hesitate, and tonight, I have made up my mind to enter politics." ”

Another young man, Accardo, uttered a forgotten phrase: "Germany will conquer the world." ”

Let's put aside the madness of young people, and in another corner of the world, the politicians of the Allied forces are trying to surprise Germany.

On 11 November, Germany surrendered at the Combien Forest.

The following year, on May 7, 1919, the Allies issued the Treaty of Versailles in Berlin, which had been unilaterally drawn up without consultation with Germany. This is a striking blow to the people of a country that is still indulging in illusions at the last second.

It was stipulated that Germany must return Alsace and the Lorraine region acquired during the Franco-Prussian War.

The treaty provided for Germany to cede a considerable part of its territory to the east to Poland, thus giving Poland access to the sea. And East Prussia became an enclave with no border with Germany.

The contract stipulated that Germany ceded part of the canton of Schleswig to Denmark. Some areas previously under German control were either occupied by the Allied forces or entrusted with the administration of the newly formed League of Nations.

The treaty stipulated that after the Allies withdrew from the Rhine region, it would become a demilitarized zone, and Germany would not be allowed to garrison troops or build military fortifications.

Of course, the treaty also stipulated that Germany would lose all of its overseas colonies, and that the German government would pay huge war reparations to the Allies.

However, the most important part of the 75,000-word, 440-clause contract was about the disarmament of Germany.

Whatever the reason, the framers of the Treaty of Versailles sought to weaken Germany's formidable military power forever. They destroyed or dismantled most of Germany's weapons and weapons production facilities, and in particular forbade Germany to possess four new weapons that appeared in the First World War: airplanes, tanks, submarines, and poison gas.

The contract also included a gradual weakening of the German armed forces, according to the terms of which all 14,000 German aircraft had to be handed over to the Allied forces or dismantled on the spot, and the navy would retain only 15,000 men symbolically, equipped with old battleships, light cruisers, destroyers, and torpedo boats produced before the First World War. In addition to this, even most of the merchant ships were confiscated as war reparations.

The hardest blow fell on the German Army, and these proud soldiers with Prussian military traditions were severely crushed.

Before the First World War, the German Army had 2 million troops, and the contract would reduce the German Army to just 100,000 by the beginning of 1920. Enlistment must be voluntary, and universal conscription must be abolished.

The General Staff, which gave birth to countless German generals, was completely abolished, military schools were abolished, the use of tanks, heavy artillery and poison gas was banned, and contracts even had detailed regulations on the amount of light weapons such as machine guns and rifles, as well as ammunition.

The pact was humiliating, with one U.S. congressman visionarily noting: "This is not a peace treaty, it has spawned at least 11 wars." "So there is no pass in the US Senate.

On May 7, 1919, the contents were published, and the German people were shocked by the harsh content of the Versailles Treaty. Everyone was indignant and had a feeling of being betrayed.

Hopes for drastic political changes in the latter stages of the war, that is, the abolition of the dictatorship of the German Emperor Wilhelm II and the introduction of parliamentary democracy would ease the sanctions of defeat were completely dashed.

The citizens of Germany rushed into the streets to protest against the contract, after all, Germany was defeated in a vague way when it had war potential, and it was intolerable for everyone to be humiliated as a vanquished.

On 16 June, the Entente presented an ultimatum to Germany, demanding that Germany accept the peace treaty by the 24th, otherwise the armistice would be null and void and that the Entente would "take such steps as they deem necessary to achieve their terms." ”

If the peace treaty was refused, would the German army be able to resist the inevitable attack of the Entente from the west? The President raised the question with the German High Command. "If the High Command considers that there is some chance of success in military resistance," said Ebert, "I will try to get Parliament to reject the peace treaty." ”

Field Marshal Hindenburg replied to Ebert as follows: "With the resumption of the fighting, we will be able to recapture the province of Poznań and hold the eastern border, but in the west it is difficult to expect us to resist a strong enemy offensive, because the Entente have the advantage in manpower and they are able to outflank us on both flanks. Therefore, in general, it is quite doubtful whether the military operation will be successful, but as a military man, I cannot but feel that it is better to die honorably on the battlefield than to accept a humiliating peace. ”

The army said that armed resistance would be fruitless and would result in the annihilation of the army's precious officer corps, and even the possibility of the demise of Germany itself.

Now that the leaders of the army had assumed responsibility, the National Assembly finally signed the peace treaty with an overwhelming majority. When this decision was communicated to the Entente representative in Berlin, Clemenceau, it was only 19 minutes before the deadline for the Entente ultimatum. Four days later, on 28 June, the victorious Allies signed the Treaty of Versailles, and the German government ratified the terms of the treaty without much delay. The conditions are harsh. Germany was forced to take sole responsibility for the cause of the war and to compensate for all the losses caused by the war. Nineteen minutes before the deadline set by the Entente, the German government finally capitulated, even though German Socialist President Friedrich Ebert dismissed the pact as "unattainable and unaffordable." ”

The beginning and end of the war never seemed to matter to the little people, and the First World War began with a crown prince being shot and ended in a vague way by a group of high-ranking officials.

Yes, the First World War, as in history, ended hastily in the compromise of a group of politicians, and the German soldiers were still waiting for the morning of the counterattack, but received orders to retreat.

Hitler collapsed, his Austrian infantry regiment was disbanded, and he was looking forward to shedding his last drop of blood for Germany, but the German bigwigs shamelessly surrendered.

In the midst of Hitler's weeping, in Accardo's comfort, the First World War was over, the German war planes were dismembered, and humiliation and grief filled the whole of Germany.
