Chapter 64 Political Game

Before leaving Tromso and returning to the Netherlands, Bach sent four new assistants to Lynn as promised. Two of them were technical officers of the "Vampire" commando team's staff headquarters, one was an intelligence officer transferred from the German intelligence agency, and the other was a radio technical officer who was proficient in operating a variety of communication equipment and was good at intercepting and decoding... Carl Tecmer. "" novel netizens hit the two with their first meeting in 1945. Tecmer was still a 16-year-old introverted young master. Two years later, his childish face was a bit more calm and confident. Judging from the changes that happened to him, Lynn felt that it was correct to leave him in North America to receive training and training from Bach. His slender and clever fingers were obviously much more suitable for using a gun to kill people.

Since these four new assistants with extensive experience in media opinion manipulation have not yet obtained a suitable new identity, they can only take a boat to Bremen like stowaways, where they bleached their identities through the Imperial Intelligence Station and supporters, and Lynn returned directly to Amsterdam. The four-week vacation was just enough, and in this short period of less than a month, the highly-watched war situation took subtle changes, seizing the old German East Prussia region.

The Soviet army, which was a strategic center in eastern Poland, occupied a position conducive to the attack, but their strong morale steel army still stopped at the Danze-Torun-Roz line. Correspondingly, the Western Allied forces also suspended the strategic bombing of the Soviet hinterland. Therefore, the reason for the Great Ping in central and western Poland was that the two sides built combat fortifications was dusty everywhere, and rumors about the upcoming signing of the armistice agreement between the two sides was even more popular. The outside world generally believed that the Western allies were unfavorable to fight in succession.

The morale of the soldiers was greatly damaged, and the Soviet army's performance on the front battlefield was dragged down by the bombing and damage of the industrial foundation. Both sides were actually at the point where they were unable to fight again. At this time, the biggest differences between the two sides were no longer ideological confrontation, but questioning each other's sincerity in truce. The Soviet Union was unwilling to admit that they had an atomic bomb and created a nuclear explosion in the Norwegian Sea, and the US and British camps were unwilling to admit that they had any relationship with Stalin's assassination. With the increasing calls for anti-war in the domestic people and the national strength and military strength were difficult to maintain the need for large-scale operations, this kind of disagreement seemed to be difficult to stop the trend of peace. It is said that both sides had made concessions and planned to visit nuclear project facilities in the Soviet Union by a pure technical team composed of international physics experts. Once it was confirmed that the Soviet Union did not have the ability to produce nuclear weapons, Western allies must fulfill and upgrade the memorandum of "not using nuclear weapons to attack the Soviet Union" to a formal agreement.

The storm sweeping across Europe gradually calmed down. The Dutch, who were afraid of the Soviet invasion from the bottom of his heart, were obviously happy to see the Eastern and Western camps reaching a truce on the front 600 kilometers away from the Netherlands. Lynn soon felt this after returning to the Netherlands. After the agency was upgraded to an embassy, ​​the number of personnel increased, but his work became busy. With the establishment of the temporary government of Von Baben, the situation in Germany changed a lot. The heating of the political atmosphere brought new political opportunities. Many Germans who moved to the Netherlands after the war began to apply to return to their motherland to settle down, while other Germans who did not want to stay away from their hometowns and wanted to enjoy a peaceful life applied to move to the Netherlands. Germany and the Netherlands, two countries that have been neighboring for generations, did not have a deep hatred that could not be resolved. The recovery of cooperation between all parties is reasonable.

The second-class counselor has a good job with a large salary, and often has to deal with normal social engagements in the diplomatic circle. Whenever he is at a banquet, he attracts the attention of the opposite sex with his young and handsome appearance and elegant and generous demeanor, Lin En always remembers the scenery of bringing Dinah to business gatherings in various European countries back then. He originally hoped that this trip would bring a beautiful wife with him, not only to take care of his family, but also to benefit from social interactions. If he gains power in the future, he can also go out with both sides openly.

However, this idea was dispelled by Bach early in the morning. He used his personal experience and understanding of the empire's top leaders to tell Lynn that staying in Nordic and Mia was a good choice for everyone. As expected, at the farewell banquet, the head of state talked about his political experience to Lynn around the bush, especially implying that single men have an extra appeal for votes, and also saying that the risk of political struggle is no less than that of the battlefield. Lynn had to keep Dian and his daughter in Nordic as "hostages".

Lynn felt that he could fully adapt to the work of a second-class government counselor in just half a month, but the mission given to him by history is not just as simple as a low-level diplomat. Soon, the German Revival Party sent a liaison officer to hand over his party membership certificate, party constitution and other relevant information, and notified him to attend the upcoming party congress in Oldenburg. At this meeting, he will be officially elected as the deputy leader of the party, so he must come in person.

A party with only tens of thousands of members held a party congress. The scene in Linn imagined was probably a group of obedient mobs sitting in a rented tavern or auditorium. The backbone performed on the stage, and everyone raised their hands to vote according to the rules. That's all.

Oldenburg is located in northwestern Germany, only more than 200 kilometers away from Amsterdam. Lynn asked Baron von Mayn for two days off and boarded the train to Germany. Compared to when he came to the Netherlands with the appointment order of the German Provisional Government, the border inspection seemed a little looser. The Germans in wilderness gray military uniforms and fluffy gray pants replaced the original Allied soldiers. They wore boat-shaped hats and bolt-pull-type rifles on their backs, and carefully and politely checked the documents of each incoming passenger.

It was the turn to check Lynn's young soldier with silver hair and blue eyes. Although the uniform was changed from the National Defense Army during the Third Reich, it was still easy to see his rank of corporal. This handsome young man simply looked through Lynn's ID and said in a respectful tone: "You are a diplomat stationed in the Netherlands... Look, one of my childhood dreams was to become a diplomat, but unfortunately it was destined to be just a dream."

Lynn put away his ID and asked the corporal with a smile: "Aren't the soldiers good too?"

While checking the IDs of passengers next to him, the corporal replied to Lynn: "If you simply serve the country, it is the glory of every soldier, but we have to accept the command of the Western Allied Command. When they feel that the front line is tight, they need the Germans to resist the Soviet attack, they only need to make a decision in one second."

Lynn understood the meaning of this sentence, but he could only respond in a faint way: "All this will change."

The corporal just smiled bitterly without answering.

It was noon when we arrived in Oldenburg, and the sun was already scorching at the end of May. To Lynn's surprise, groups of welcoming people were holding banners outside the train station and waving small flags. This was a treatment that he had never enjoyed from the battlefield. The special car arranged to come to pick it up was a brand new Mercedes. Although the Mercedes factory began to resume production in 1946, it was restricted by all parties and the output was far from comparable to before the war. The depression economy also affected the sales of these high-end cars. It was blowing cold in the car.

The cool air conditioner, watching the civilians working in the open air slow pace, Lin En increasingly felt that this party only imitated the appearance of the former National Socialist Party without its internal explosive power. Just like the exquisitely printed party constitution, it only roughly draws on the arguments and views used by the early National Socialist Party to attract the people and modify it, lacking the content that keeps pace with the times and truly touches the soul. It is no wonder that it has developed for more than a year, and its scale is not as large as some local parties in Bavaria. I really don’t know why the high-level leaders of the empire chose such a low-level party to cooperate.

The venue of the Party Congress was located in a manor in the southern suburb of Oldenburg. The walls, lawns and houses were newly renovated, but judging from the construction waste piled up nearby, it was not able to escape the Allied airstrikes during the war. Perhaps the organizers of the conference were keen on family gatherings, or perhaps intentionally to set off a happy party atmosphere. The layout and decorations in the manor looked more like a typical Western wedding. The open-air table was filled with rich and delicious food and wine, and the aroma of barbecue drifted with the wind. Most people probably threw away the content of the Party Congress and took full care of the greed in their stomachs when they arrived here.

Compared to the strict and serious military preparations of the Imperial Team, everything here gave Lynn was not only disappointed or disappointed. In front of the main building, he saw the smiling leader of the Baath Party, the leader of the party Franz Stupfer, a fat man with a big belly like Goring, wearing an awkward black tuxedo dress, and could not see the majesty and ability of the leader at all. Instead, he was like a clown hired to perform a comedy. Realizing that he would work side by side with such a group of people to call each other comrades, Lynn even wanted to regard all this as a nightmare - after dawn, the fat man with a greasy head and the ugly bugs would disappear from his eyes without a trace.

In the following conversation, Lynn felt that he called Stupfer "a fat man with greasy head and pink face" in his heart. This guy has the sleek and cunning of a businessman, his charming attitude is annoying but has no way to attack. However, among his subordinates, there are still a few who have good knowledge and temperament. Judging from their powerful behavior, they probably changed their appearance and avoided the former SS personnel who were hunted by the Allies, and their low-key attitude in front of others also indirectly confirmed Lynn's judgment.

After the lively dinner, more than 200 representatives of party members gathered on the lawn on the north side. Before boarding the wooden pedestal that had been placed in advance, the party leader with greasy heads and flour said to Lynn: "This election is just a formality. Mr. Horst doesn't have to worry at all. Besides, everyone already knows that you are an amazing diplomat now. You can have a deputy leader like you to lead the party building. Everyone feels full of confidence!
