"Humph, you'd better not go too far if you shouldn't interfere. Major, remember your identity, you are just a major!"
After seeing the report submitted by Major Meinz, Marshal Hindenburg looked very unhappy.
"how? Not convinced?"
After teaching the other party a lesson, the old marshal found that the young major had never spoken. He neither made any excuse for his behavior nor reacted to the marshal's words. The old marshal raised his eyebrows, a little angry.
"No, I'm not angry, and I have no right to be angry!"
Major Mainz's tone was very calm, so calm that it was impossible to capture his true feelings from his tone.
This surprised Marshal Hindenburg. He had met many people in his life, but like It’s rare to see people like Mainz who are so calm at such a young age.
"As long as you know!"
After hearing what the other party said, Marshal Hindenburg breathed a sigh of relief.
Perhaps he felt that his tone was too harsh, so the old marshal changed his attitude and said to Mainz in a serious voice:"Levinsky, you still Young, these things are not that simple. I also know that they are going to send people to demolish the Krupp factory in Essen, but there is nothing we can do about it, you understand?"
In the first week of December, the Allied troops from the Billy Division entered the Ruhr Industrial Area. As soon as these people entered the Ruhr Industrial Area, they began to loot and plunder. They didn't look like an army at all. Like a group of bandits, they plundered almost everything they could see.
As a world-famous large-scale military industrial enterprise, the Krupp factory located in Essen was naturally not spared. This factory was attacked by 2,000 French soldiers. Violent demolition.
What's even more outrageous is that the Gauls were not satisfied with the demolition of the arsenal. They also sent people to arrest the owner of the Krupp factory, Gustav Krupp, and planned to send him back to the military court in the Tower City. The trial.
Major Mainz really couldn't stand it, so he secretly knocked out the Gallic soldiers escorting the prisoners, and secretly hid Gustav Krupp. Now the Gallic army is searching the city. The suspects have arrested nearly a hundred innocent people.
Of course, Major Mainz did not hide this matter from Marshal Hindenburg. Not only did he not hide it, he even killed many arms dealers and weapons contractors who were very important to the empire. Their names were listed, and they asked the old marshal to send people to protect them so that these people could not be lost in the actions of the Allied forces.
Marshal Hindenburg did not know about it in advance. After he read the report of Major Mainz, he suddenly became aware of it. Shocked!
The Gallic army was domineering and wreaking havoc in the Ruhr Industrial Zone. He was not unaware of these things, because every day hundreds of people came to complain to him outside the military camp, asking him to send troops to stop the French army's actions.
However, Marshal Hindenburg remained unmoved by the requests of these people.
This did not mean that he was a softie and did not dare to offend the Gauls, but that Marshal Hindenburg knew very well that the Second Empire had been defeated.
The empire no longer exists.
They have surrendered long ago.
Although he still has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, it is simply unrealistic to expect these troops to fight against the Allies because there is no country behind them that they can rely on to guarantee their military operations.
, even if they can expel the tens of thousands of French troops in the Ruhr Industrial Zone or even annihilate them all, so what?
After these people are expelled, millions of Allied troops will come to kill them. Hans will suffer greater and more serious damage. Since he is the loser, he will have to bear the consequences of the defeat!
The battalion commander of the Guards had witnessed with his own eyes what the German army did in the Iron Tower City, the capital of Gaul.
Marshal Hindenburg sighed. He knew that the young man did not have as much experience as him, and that the young man was passionate. He has a rather impulsive personality, which has not been polished by time.
He likes soldiers with a bloody spirit. After all, soldiers with a bloody spirit often possess all the qualities of an excellent soldier.
However, sometimes, this bloody spirit often harms them. It harmed the country. The old marshal was very optimistic about Major Mainz's future, so he couldn't help but want to impart his valuable experience to the other party, so that the other party could avoid detours and grow up as quickly as possible.
Moltke and Schlieffen have long since passed away, and Marshal Mackensen is already 69 years old, not much younger than him. His old partner General Ludendorff had a very pleasant cooperation with Marshal Hindenburg before 1918. The two teamed up on the Eastern Front battlefield The defeat of the arrogant Tsarist Russia directly led to the outbreak of revolution within Tsarist Russia, thus leading to the demise of Tsarist Russia.
However, on the Western Front battlefield, the cooperation between the two was not happy, especially the frustration of the counterattack plan after July 1918, which led to huge differences between the two. General Ludendorff, who had a tough personality, resigned in anger. Qian, it is said that he left Hans by boat yesterday and went to seek refuge in the country of Red Point in Northern Europe.
In World War I, most of the German officers were old-school soldiers from the Kingdom of Prussia. Their common characteristic was that they had experienced many wars in which Prussia had achieved glorious victories, such as the Austro-Prussian War and the Franco-Prussian War, so they had extremely rich experience. war experience.
But their biggest weakness also arises from this. These experienced veteran generals are almost all old. On the Eastern and Western Front battlefields, among the generals above the level of group army commander, only one is under the age of 40. There are several figures, including Crown Prince Wilhelm, the son of Emperor Wilhelm II. It can be said that the entire senior generals of the German army are seriously aging!
The old marshal was very worried about this. He knew that the old guys would die sooner or later, and the power of the new generation must be able to replace the old guys before they wither. Otherwise, the military tradition passed down from the period of the Teutonic Knights would I'm afraid it will be destroyed in their hands!
The house leaked and it rained all night. Under these circumstances, they also lost a world war. This made the future of the entire army confusing. No one knew where the future would go, let alone the smooth replacement of the new generation. Conducted.
Faced with such a difficult task, the old marshal must be very discerning and select the best talents to rebuild the army. Otherwise, this army with a glorious history and illustrious achievements will really be destroyed by their generation. In hand!
