Chapter 161 The Empire's Top Secret
Although he had left the war half a year ago, the Imperial Base Camp and Base Command in the "Sanctuary" base still retain the wartime all-weather duty system, ensuring that full-time officers pay close attention to the information of all parties 24 hours a day. Once a major accident occurs, they will report it layer by layer until the senior management learns the situation and makes corresponding judgments. Under this duty system, senior personnel, including the Head of State and Marshal Rommel, rarely stay in offices at night. After confirming with the officer on duty in the Head of State's office, Lynn went straight to the "Aryan Garden", an independent cave library with four exquisite villas and artificial lighting systems. Since the Head of State woke up, he moved from the hospital's special care unit to his "Garden No. 1".
He has been the chief strategic staff officer of the base camp for a long time. Everyone around the head of state has become familiar faces. Lynn explained his intentions to the head of state's life adjutant in general language. Although the situation has not reached the critical level, in his opinion, planning a sea interception is already lagging behind. This time, God is helping to find an opportunity to make up for the loss. If he acts one hour later, the chance of success will decrease by one point.
However, what surprised and puzzled Lin En was that the humble and kind adjutant, who was usually humble and kind, seemed extremely determined at this moment: "No, general, I'm afraid it won't work now! It really won't work!"[]
"This matter is very important, really important!" Lynn emphasized his tone, raised his voice, hoping that his voice could pass through the doors and windows and into the head of state's ears. Although it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening, normal people usually don't go to bed so early, even if an old man who had a different life schedule than ordinary people, at most he had just fallen asleep.
The full name is Rudolf.
Ludwig.
The head of Hantfark's head of state still blocked the door with his burly body that was no less than Lynn, frowned and said in a whisper: "General, you are so embarrassed by this! Think about it, if the head of state can see you, how could I stand here to stop you?"
Driven by urgent emotions, Lin En gave up her usual elegant image and pressed step by step: "Then why?"
Major Hantfark still did not get angry but his words became a little cold and hard: "General, you don't know why there are many reasons that exist as absolute secrets. You really shouldn't ask, and I won't answer."
Lin En was still trying to argue, and at this moment, a gentle and familiar voice came from beside him.
"Rudolph, why are you clamoring here? Isn't this Lynn?"
Seeing Goebbels walking towards him with one hand, Hantfack quickly turned around and explained: "His Excellency Chairman, I'm sorry, I think General Galgo has misunderstood some issues......"
The so-called chairman is the executive chairman of the German Revival Committee. This is a new institution announced before New Year's Day. Lynn only learned about its existence after returning to the base. In terms of function, this committee is equivalent to the preparation stage of the new empire, which covers all aspects of internal affairs, military and diplomacy. Under the current situation, it mainly focuses on economic and industrial revival, and does not involve military reforms for the time being. When the position changes, people naturally change their words, but the "chairman" and "comrades" seem to be incompatible with the Third Reich. In fact, the national socialism promoted by the Hitler regime is at least formally close to or equal to socialist countries like the Soviet Union. Some are essentially no different, while others do things with the same name and are completely different.
"His Excellency Chairman!" Lin Neng changed his words with his colleagues and explained, "This military service is very urgent and is related to the grand strategy of the revival of the empire. It only takes ten minutes for me to do so."
Goebbels smiled unexplainedly: "I am not convenient to ask about military affairs, but seeing General Galgo so urgently, there must be a very important thing to report to the Head of State. Rudolph, the Head of State is undergoing physical therapy, right!"
In front of Goebbels, Hantfak naturally had nothing to keep, and he replied with relief: "Yes, Your Excellency Chairman!"
Lin Neng didn't know what the "physical therapy" was. Like the health status of the head of state, it was the highest secret of the empire at the moment. Although it was not listed explicitly, it gradually became the default rule by the top leaders from top to bottom. Only a few senior figures knew what diseases the head of state had before awakening and whether there were any diseases after awakening. Lin Neng, a "special lieutenant general", was obviously not qualified to be included in the core circle of the empire.
"Well, General Galgo, this is the case. The Head of State now has to undergo a prolonged physical therapy every night to ensure that he can gradually reach a complete recovery. During this period, he cannot meet you or discuss military affairs with you.
It’s better to...you go to the base commander first and discuss this military service with him. If he agrees with your immediate report, then we will discuss whether we will take some special measures without affecting the health of the head of state. What do you think?"
When he said this, Goebbels intends to look behind him, that is, "Garden No. 3". Rommel did not live here originally. The head of state of New Year awarded him the honor of moving his family here by commendation. The couple, together with the adjutant, and the servant lived in such a garden mansion. It would be nothing if they were in the heyday of the Third Reich. However, in a shelter with limited space and resources, avoiding is the highest level of enjoyment.
Lin Neng thought about it and was directly responsible to the head of state according to his position. He did not need to go through Rommel's link to report strategic proposals. However, considering that Rommel is currently serving as the Chief of Staff of the Imperial Strategy Office, it is not wrong to communicate with him in advance. So he bowed slightly: "Okay, Your Excellency Chairman, thank you for your reminder. I was too rash just now, and I hope you forgive me!"
Goebbels lowered his head and looked at his daughter, gently stroked their beautiful braids with his hands, and the two little girls looked at Lynn with strange eyes just now. Lynn also recognized that the older one was the one she had saved during the retreat, and she might still remember herself.
When Lynn finished speaking politely, Goebbels smiled and said, "It's purely a personal suggestion, so General Galgo, we're going to continue our walk. I hope you'll be doing well!"
Lynn stood attentively in a relatively quiet manner: "Goodbye, Your Excellency Chairman, I wish you a happy life!"
The chairman of the Revival Committee left with a smile, holding his two cute and beautiful little daughters. Compared to the scene where their whole family was dispatched, Lynn apologized to Hantfark, and the head-in-law apologized for his words just now. The two had no friendship at all, and now they were not in vain and lived in a friendly manner. Following Goebbels' advice, Lynn immediately went to Rommel's residence to report to the legendary figure who was still reading a book on his plan to attack the giant cruise ship "Europa".
"It's really amazing to do this, so you don't look like an ordinary Germanic at all."
Rommel's words of rising to the point of surprise Lin Neng, and he couldn't figure out the intention behind him, so he had to get up from the chair, holding his head up and looking straight ahead as if he was being questioned.
"You are too sensitive!" Rommel said immediately, "What I just said can be understood as a kind of praise. A person who truly does great things should get rid of the emotional shackles of mortals. This time we may lose a spiritual sustenance and lose a past glory, but with this point, we can change a lot, and reap new spiritual sustenance and new glory after several years of painful wandering."
Only then did Lin En feel relieved, and he said generously, "The chief must admit that my original intention of planning this action was only from a rational strategic perspective, and did not incorporate complex national emotions."
Rommel raised his head and looked at Lynn with his bad eyes that could not see anything and the still bright good eyes; "In extraordinary times, this is beyond reproach, but I still want to say that killing and destruction are not the duties of soldiers. As for the true meaning of military affairs, we should work hard to find them. Okay, come with me! Remember, no matter what you see next, you can only be buried in your heart and you must never reveal it to anyone, including your beloved."
Without asking Lynn whether she understood or asked him to swear, Rommel directly led him out to the residence of the head of state. But when he heard that he had laid the groundwork, Lynn felt unprecedentedly curious about the head of state, as if it was the greatest secret in this world, in comparison, nothing else...
The layout and furnishings of Garden One were obviously different from the Garden Two, which Lynn stepped on at the banquet. It looked more majestic and more in line with the identity and personality of the occupants, but it looked empty, with only the guards patrolling and alert walking around in a small range. Entering the foyer, Rommel raised his arms slightly and turned around in circles. Although the guards did not make physical contact with him during the process, such strict alert methods still surprised Lynn. As for him, the "special lieutenant general", the chief strategic staff officer of the base camp failed to save the full-body examination.
In the foyer, although the lit hall is elegant and noble in its layout, it is as magnificent as a palace, but it is also empty and lacks popularity. Under the leadership of a servant, Rommel and Lynn entered the elevator next to the stairs, and rose to the second floor through an antique decoration corridor, and passed through a double-open wooden door in the center. After entering the door, Lynn was surprised to see two medical staff wearing white coats and white masks. The furnishings of this side hall were as simple as entering another building. It was spotlessly clean, and the air was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant.
Rommel walked straight to a door in front and whispered to the officer standing next to him, "Is it over?"
The officer looked down at his watch: "It should take another half an hour."
Rommel still kept the rare low voice on weekdays and said, "We have emergency military affairs, can we borrow the observation room?"
The officer hesitated for a moment, turned to look at Lin Neng, and replied, "Okay! Come with me!"
