Extreme chaos naturally gives birth to careerists, all the more so that chaos in Germany has been going on for too long.

On April 17, 1928, the famous Adolf Hitler delivered a speech in the newspaper Volkstro Observer.

In this speech, he harshly criticized the incompetence of the government, and said that it was the government's acceptance of the war reparations from the Treaty of Versailles and various post-war measures that allowed Germany to experience all this.

Hitler directly stated that it was precisely because the military government destroyed everything in Germany that the great Germanic nation suffered undeserved humiliation.

At the end of his speech, Hitler also said that he wanted to establish an order where every household in Germany had milk and bread on their table, so that Germans could once again stand on top of the world.

If it had been in the immediate aftermath of World War I, Hitler's statement would not have received much recognition, but would have been regarded as a madman and a fool.

But now, when Germany was suffering from economic crisis and post-war suffering, Hitler's speeches instantly attracted many Germans, and these people took Hitler's words as holy words.

In fact, Hitler at this time was no longer the little corporal of World War I. Hitler's party had become one of the largest in Germany, and the SA he created was armed with hundreds of thousands of members.

If you had to choose the man most likely to overthrow the German government, it would be Hitler.

For this rising figure in German politics, whether it is Wilhelm II or President Hindenburg, there must be some attention to Hitler.

However, Wilhelm II no longer competed for power, and the voice of the government naturally fell into the hands of President Hindenburg.

President Hindenburg, a former corporal, did not have any favor, and even quietly commented that Hitler could only be a post minister at best.

This is actually quite normal, because compared to the noble birth of Hindenburg President Juncker, Hitler was only a commoner, and the highest military rank was only a corporal.

Moreover, Hitler's actions in the political arena were too extreme, even more extreme than the military government, and not necessarily a good thing for Germany.

Hitler's extremes were exposed, and were naturally felt by other parties and officials in German politics.

In order to prevent such an extreme person from holding power in Germany, many officials and political parties of the German government united to oppose Hitler's entry into the government and Hitler's party to control the discourse in the Reichstag.

Before the economic crisis, the coalition of these parties and officials was very effective. Because Hitler could not fool the majority of the German people, the German government still had a lot of control over the regions except the states.

But when the economic crisis began, everything changed. Not only the states, but also some regions far from the imperial government were gradually breaking away from the government.

This detachment does not mean that they want to be independent, but that the influence of the government is relatively low, and these regions have a larger voice.

The good news is that although Germany today is very different from its history, the supreme ruler of the national government, the office called the president, also has a seven-year term.

This was not abolished by the fact that Wilhelm II continued to be crowned Emperor of Germany, which was the cause of the chaos in German politics.

The president, who serves a seven-year term, is not directly accountable to the Kaiser, but to the German parliament.

The German parliament is directly elected by the German people, and the party with the seats in the parliament nominates the presidential candidate, and finally chooses the final president through the parliamentary election.

The whole process had almost nothing to do with the Emperor, and this was the way the French made the greatest way to limit the power of the German Emperor.

Because the president's term was seven years, the term of the Kingenberg presidency expired in 1932.

This also means that there is no need to worry about Hitler going to the top for at least a few years.

However, no one is sure whether the accident will happen, and from the crazy depreciation of the mark, it is certain that German politics is definitely not as stable as it seems.

The changes in the world situation attracted Arthur's great attention, and Australasia also started a new round of armament transformation.

We have to admit that a considerable number of weapons and equipment were still used during the First World War, and more than 10 years have passed since then.

Although the Lee Enfield rifle was used for decades, it was used frequently even in the latter part of World War II.

If there was a more advanced rifle to replace the Lee Enfield rifle, it would be a way for Arthur to increase his firepower.

I'm not afraid of a lot of weapons, but I'm afraid that when I need more and more varied weapons, I don't have the corresponding design.

Fortunately, there are still many weapons design experts in Australasia, and Arthur's needs for rifle modification were quickly met.

Of course, the development of a new rifle has always been Browning's pursuit, and this new rifle has been in research for more than seven years.

After spending so much time researching new weapons, Arthur was looking forward to the new rifle that Browning had developed.

In Browning's briefing to Arthur, the new rifle was called the BLN28 automatic rifle by Browning.

The design concept of the BLN28 automatic rifle is still based on the air-conducting principle of the Maxim heavy machine gun, which achieves the purpose of automatic ammunition loading.

Of course, this is only a semi-automatic rifle like the Rienfeld rifle, and a fully automatic rifle requires auto-fire.

How do you make bullets fire automatically? After painstaking meditation, Browning developed a hammer-slew-type firing mechanism and a bolt-type slewing locking mechanism, realizing the idea of automatic loading and automatic firing of BLN28 automatic rifles.

In fact, the world's first self-firing rifle was developed as early as 1860, but it was not valued and reused at that time for various reasons.

Even on the battlefields of World War II, semi-automatic rifles were the most used. The use of fully automatic rifles will not wait until after World War II, after all, the battlefields of World War I and World War II needed more cannon fodder than the ability to achieve effective lethal single-point fire.

If you want to compete in firepower, the firepower of various light and heavy machine guns and artillery is definitely much better than that of fully automatic rifles.

With light and heavy machine guns, the firepower of a fully automatic rifle is naturally not needed on the battlefield.

Even the Lee Enfield rifle can be "fully automatic" with a relatively fast hand speed, after all, the fastest semi-automatic rifle is not in vain.

Arthur asked Browning to develop a fully automatic rifle, not to replace the Lee Enfield rifle entirely, not to give soldiers more choice of guns at some point.

A normal large-scale battle would definitely be more cost-effective with a Lee Enfield rifle, after all, a fully automatic rifle represents more bullet consumption.

Arthur has not seen a real battlefield, and how many soldiers can really aim and shoot?

More than half of the bullets are wasted on the battlefield, and most of them are fired at the ground or the sky.

If a semi-automatic rifle is replaced with a fully automatic rifle, the military budget in the war will definitely increase several times.

This is simply not possible in a short period of time, and it is also impossible to reload fully automatic rifles on a large scale throughout the army.

The greatest use of fully automatic rifles is actually to use them as powerful weapons for some special armies.

The power of the submachine gun was too small, and the heavy machine gun was not easy to carry. If you can use a fully automatic rifle with equal firepower to perform certain tasks, it will definitely have an unexpected effect.

Arthur instantly thought of those special forces in later generations. The current conditions are also sufficient, at least for Arthur to explore and train some special forces.

Give the special forces a full arsenal of fully automatic rifles, anyway, their number is not too much, and the increased military budget is not too exaggerated.

And such a group of military uniforms equipped with fully automatic rifles and other elite weapons will definitely play no less role in war than a large-scale army.

Coupled with a powerful air force, it can even effectively decapitate behind enemy lines and cut off the enemy's supply lines.

The effect of this on the war is immeasurable. If the enemy's commander can be eliminated in advance in the war, the enemy's army will naturally be in disarray.

It is even an exaggeration to say that an elite special forces capable of parachuting everywhere is definitely a nightmare for the enemies of Australasia in the future, so that they will not even sleep well.

However, special forces are not said to be able to be trained by training, Arthur also needs to gather more elite soldiers, first conduct the first round of selection, select the elite of those armies, and then go through rounds of screening and training before finally obtaining an elite army of the elite.

The second watch, ask for a monthly pass, ask for support!
