There was a "clang" sound, the crisp sound of a cup hitting the ground. Hoffman woke up and found himself lying on the bed well. Where was the trace of his grandfather? He just touched the cup on the bedside table when he reached out his hand.
What is this place? He looked around cautiously. Could it be that he had been sent to the hospital? But the surrounding layout does not look like a ward. He struggled a bit, but seemed to have no obvious discomfort. Before he could figure out what was going on, a man in a white coat hurried in and made a surprised voice: "Führer? Are you finally awake?"
"Who are you? Why am I here?" Hoffman looked at the other person. Although the other person was wearing a white coat, the furnishings here were not the usual style in a hospital, but rather looked like a house in an eagle's nest.
"The Führer? I am Morel, and I am your most loyal doctor..." The man in a white coat obviously did not expect Hoffman's question and explained himself again and again.
"What are you calling me..."
"Führer!"
Oh my god...the head of state! Hoffman subconsciously touched his nose. The feel was very different from before. Looking at his hands again, he felt something strange. What's worse, he actually felt the thick beard under his nose with the back of his hand—— He never grew a beard.
He struggled to sit up and said, "Help me look in the mirror." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Hoffman was even more surprised. This was by no means the tone of his daily speech.
Dr. Morel was surprised by Hoffman's request, but his obedience over the years had developed a conditioned reflex in him. He gently helped the "Führer" to the wardrobe mirror. Hoffman's eyes were slightly closed, not daring to look at the situation in the mirror, but the other party's words rang in his ears: "Führer, yesterday morning's accident really scared us."
It's the head of state again! Hoffmann made up his mind and looked at himself in the mirror with wide eyes: that iconic face and the thick mustache under the nose are unique in the entire century and the entire earth - it is the third The head of the empire.
What the hell does this happen? Hoffman shook his head in disbelief, trying his best to control his emotions so as not to let this shocking change show on his face. "Morrel, my dear doctor..." He paused, considered it, and asked slowly, "What day is it today? How long have I been in a coma?"
"Today is August 23, 1942. As for coma - it's not really considered coma. The day before yesterday, you were a little excited and accidentally fell while walking. There was no obvious trauma, but you had symptoms of dizziness. Because' Werewolf' is too wet. For health reasons you take a special train back to the Eagle's Nest to rest. Last night you complained of a headache and I used a little more barbiturate, so you got a few more hours of sleep. It's almost 11 noon now. " Morel explained while asking in a cautious tone: "Dear Head of State, could you please lie down for a few more minutes and let me do a comprehensive examination on you... Your face is a little pale, and besides, ...It seems that his mental state is not very good."
Hoffman thought to himself: It is natural to be pale. Anyone who suddenly becomes the head of state will be frightened. However, he is not stupid enough to tell the fact that he is not the head of state - as long as he dares to say so, someone will keep it. Go out of your way to treat yourself like a lunatic.
He lay down again obediently and sighed: "I'm fine, maybe it's just because I worry too much about this country."
Morel smiled, of course he knew the truth of the matter: three nights ago, at a battle discussion meeting held at the Vinnitsa base camp in Ukraine, the Army Chief of Staff, General Franz-Halder, and The head of state once again had a heated argument about the war situation on the Eastern Front. The angry general even slammed the table, and the meeting had to break up in the end. While taking a walk after breakfast the next day, the Führer still could not restrain his anger and complained to Martin-Bormann, the party director and director of the Chancellery, about Halder's unruly nature and his repeated opposition to him. , and then because I was so excited that I didn't pay attention to my feet, I fell and hit my head on a stone...
"Führer, it seems that your blood pressure, heartbeat, and pulse are all normal at present." Morel put down the stethoscope and said solemnly, "For the sake of the empire, you should take care of yourself."
"Thank you for your advice." Hoffman waved his hand, "Let them wake me up in half an hour. Now I have to calm down and think about something alone.
"The doctor quietly closed the door and left, but Hoffman didn't pay attention to this. His mind was running at a high speed, and he had to think of countermeasures for his situation. Of course, Hoffman knew what he was encountering. As a research authority, he was exposed to hundreds of time-travel works every year, whether they were realistic strategic deductions or vivid literary novels. Or a carefully planned academic paper, which he dismissed as fantasy and laughed off. Unexpectedly, the most ridiculous and unbelievable myth of time travel has become a reality.
He remembered Einstein's famous saying - just because I despised authority so much, fate punished me and made me become an authority. Precisely because I despise time travel so much, fate punished me by allowing me to travel through time, and moreover, I happened to travel to such a person.
While thinking about it, he was surprised to find that his consciousness and the consciousness of the Führer were merging at a rapid speed, without any conflict or delay. The various things in the Führer's mind were completely absorbed and integrated into Hoffman's autonomous consciousness. Part of it - the world is still the same world, but the head of state is no longer the same head of state.
August 23, 1942 was the moment when the Soviet-German war reached its climax. According to the normal historical trajectory, by May 1945, that is, in a little more than two and a half years, the Soviet army would have to plant the red flag in the Empire. The roof of the building was damaged, and he would commit suicide in the dark and damp basement. He couldn't help but tremble at the thought of this terrible ending. At this moment, he remembered the words of old Hoffman: "...but you are the most unfortunate, because what you are about to face is such a tricky and difficult empire..." So that's what happened!
No! no way! I must change this fate!
"Führer." There was a rhythmic knock on the door, "Can we come in?"
"Please come in. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com" Germans are famous for being punctual. The neatly dressed Hoffman looked up at the wall clock and saw that half an hour had passed exactly.
Three people came from outside. The first was Martin Bowman, who was also a "familiar face." It was too familiar. After searching through his memory, he already knew that the other party was Rudolf-Schmundt, a major general in the army, the chief aide to the head of state, and the most trusted staff member of the head of state at present.
"Dear Head of State, I am extremely happy to see you recovering from health." Bowman stepped forward and greeted in a slightly exaggerated tone.
Hoffman nodded. He knew that Morel would definitely go and report his performance to Bowman. These were all figures who were extremely familiar with the Führer, but they must not reveal their lies. He immediately replied calmly: " Thank you for your concern. The events of the past two days made me a little frustrated, but after resting I feel energetic and can continue to lead the empire forward."
Bowman was obviously relieved. When Morel came to him just now to report that the head of state was not in an ideal state of mind, he was shocked. You must know that Martin Bowman's current position of power is all thanks to the head of state. Without this support, he is nothing. Now it seems that Morel is making a fuss out of a molehill. Isn't the head of state a good person? He glared at the latter with dissatisfaction and said: "Führer, General Schmont originally wanted to report to you on personnel arrangements first, but now lunch is ready, don't you know?"
"Then let's talk while we eat." Hoffman waved his hand disapprovingly, held his head high and walked out first.
