Chapter 84 The Brave is Invincible
Chapter 84: The Brave Is Invincible
Lin En believed that in the hearts of every soldier who had experienced the glory and suffering of the Third Reich, the "Sacred Oath" had a unique position, so he emphasized his tone on this special word. (, ") The reaction at the scene was as he wished, and the officers and soldiers who were crowded to the hotel showed hesitation, and the commotion of the crowd was greatly weakened, and it looked like a bucket of stirred sauce suddenly solidified, and the order was re-formed in a state of chaos.
The matter goes with the flow, Lin Enfeng said: "German soldiers, please listen to me! I am Hugo Horst, a diplomat in the Netherlands appointed by the German Provisional Government, and a second-class counselor. I know very well that when I come here today, I will probably lose my public office with good treatment and status, and may even ruin my future in the diplomatic world, but I am here and stand here unswervingly. Dear soldiers, I believe that you, like everyone here, have a deep love for our Germany.
Love, I believe you all know the consequences of Kiel being bombed by the atomic bomb. The Soviets did not deny that they would attack Kiel this time, and the reasons are well known - there are all-around fleets here. However, Kiel is not only a fully equipped port, but also the cradle of the German navy and the home of the Kiel people. Most of us live in places not too far from Kiel. We are definitely not going to make our government embarrassed, but to defend Kiel in our way! Defend Kiel!"
After Lin En repeated the repeated voices, the members of the Fuxing Party and some of the masses below followed and shouted the slogan "Defend Kiel". The tide of voice spread rapidly. Soon everyone in the entire neighborhood was raising their arms and shouting. The Germans' previous momentum was completely suppressed, and they became real minorities. Encouragers, they stood there at a loss, and several officers tried to call the soldiers to continue moving forward, but there was no effect at all.
After successfully controlling the atmosphere on the scene, Lynn turned his head and looked at Stupfer. The party leader had just moved to Lynn's back position, and there was still a look of fear in his eyes. He was sincerely admired Lynn's performance.
Lynn nodded slightly at Stupfer, signaling that he could relax his emotions, then turned around and faced the whole audience with a straight and upright attitude, and was full of energy: "We defend Kiel, we defend North Germany, and we are also defending the dignity that Germany cannot be violated!"
The tide of sound fell and the block returned to quiet. The airways that people had left for the soldiers had merged, and hundreds of officers and soldiers had been submerged among the tens of thousands of people.
"German soldiers, look at the people around you! They are your compatriots and your family. Some of them are old and some are powerless, but they have the most admirable courage in the world. They come here and are ready to defend the dignity of Germany with their flesh and blood. Just yesterday, we held hands and faced the wire and bayonets bravely, shouted in our voices, and showed the tenacity of Germany with our spirit. We shocked our opponents and will persevere until they left here in shame. German soldiers, I respect your profession, respect your fearless character and sacrifice that you showed in the two world wars.
The spirit of life, even if you cannot fight against fate due to the orders of superiors and the limitations of your military status, we can understand and understand. Even if we do not have your support, we will fight to the end. But if you are here to arrest us and prevent us from defending Kiel and defending German dignity, what is the difference between it and being stabbed in the back by an internal enemy in 1918? What is the difference between it and being betrayed by our own family and compatriots? We cannot fight against your submachine guns with fists. We can only endure the severe pain in our hearts silently. We can only soothe our wounds in prison. Listen to the exchange of news from Kiel. Is this what you want?”
There was a silence in the crowd.
"Is this the result?" Lynn repeated loudly.
Some people began to speak among the civilians in the audience, and they were not many or noisy, and they gathered into a buzzing sound.
"Is this the result?" Lynn repeated again.
This time, a voice finally sounded in the crowd, a little hoarse and a little unwilling to accept:
"No, we do not harm our compatriots, nor do we allow anyone to violate the dignity of Germany!"
Lynn saw a young and burly soldier talking from a distance. He held his rifle high in his hands, and stood out among the soldiers and was unique.
One second, two seconds, three seconds... In the blink of an eye, more soldiers raised their rifles high, and the crowd around them gave warm applause and encouragement for their actions. Some of the officers shouted in surprise, while others stood there to acquiesce to all this happening--perhaps they had spiritually turned to these brave people. Seeing that the Germans who were originally going to interfere with the rally and march continued to collapse, Lynn's confidence in completely turning the situation up greatly. He took advantage of the situation and shouted "Long live Germany". The powerful voice amplified through the microphone like a strong wind. The crowd's enthusiasm followed, and the scene was boiling again!
Just as more and more Germans were about to throw themselves into the parade and rally, four crisp gunshots broke the lucky idea of some people to win political victory with their verbal benefits. When the crowd suddenly calmed down in an instant, Lynn seemed to be hit by a small hammer, with little force but very painful.
In an instant, tens of thousands of people turned their attention to the rear, and a military truck covered with tarp was parked on the periphery. An ordinary-shaped officer stood at the top of the cab, his feet spread apart, his right arm was raised, and a faint white smoke drifted above the black muzzle. Obviously, this person was the one who just shot.
With dense crowds of people, Lin En and the other party were 700 to 800 meters away. Their faces could not be seen clearly with their naked eyes. However, under the scene, the two of them had obviously conflicted head-on.
"Soldiers don't care about politics. Go forward! Soldiers! Execute orders."
Without any fancy rhetoric, the words like boiled water have magical effects. It dispels the magic that envelops the soldiers. Most of the soldiers holding guns in both hands obediently set their weapons again. The officers took advantage of the opportunity to lead their respective teams to continue to advance to the hotel. Although the people still tried to block them with their bodies, the progress between the teams was much different. However, as the fastest team approached step by step, the members of the Fuxing party around the platform became nervous-the orders of these soldiers were to disperse.
Or arrest? Should we fight with force, evacuate the important guards or surrender? There is not much time left, and the answers to these questions are invisible pressure. The leaders and commanders at all levels keep turning back to the chief and deputy leaders on the stage. From the moment the soldiers appeared, Stupfer had lost his determination, and at this time he completely handed over the decision to Lynn. The young deputy leader of the Baath Party stood motionless in front of the microphone stand. He had only two minutes of speech, but he felt like he was completely silent.
The crowd was like sea water. The more those soldiers moved towards the stage, the greater the resistance they were. The people around tried to dissuade them with words. Some even raised their chests and tried to block these soldiers with their bodies. The leading officer was still tolerant and forced to use their physical advantages to pass. But the soldiers were still moving forward in the end. Seeing that they were about to meet the inner circle cordon formed by members of the Baath Party, the possibility of violent conflicts increased rapidly, Lin Neng calmed down and said in a heavy tone: "Everyone."
!Don’t panic, please listen to me! We came here with a common idea today. No matter what the result is, we have shown our fearless spirit and infinite love for Germany. We have to resist even if we are bullied by the enemy, even if we die. But today we are facing our own compatriots, the people of the Germans who have dedicated their sweat and blood to us and the country. Our resistance is meaningless. Come on! If this is our destiny and we cannot avoid it, then raise our heads and face it!"
After Lin Neng finished his heroic and tragic words, most of the people in the audience were stunned. Tens of thousands of people here were united as a force that should not be underestimated. Facing a few hundred soldiers, they could fight bravely. Not to mention anything else, it was no problem to protect the initiators of the parade and rally. Before people had more ideas, Lin Neng pulled Stupf to his side and gave him a firm nod: "Come on, just today, let us become the heroes of Germany together!"
At this time, Stupfer could only pretend to be calm with skepticism.
Lynn held Stupfer's hand intimately and continued to whisper: "Sing together, "Germany is above everything"!"
Regardless of whether Stupfer understood his intentions, Lynn returned to the microphone and began singing the Third Reich national anthem, which he learned to sing and often sang with his comrades when he was in the "Vampire" commando. Now the Provisional Government has just taken office, and almost all the old rules have been broken, but the national anthem passed down from the Weimar era has not been "reformed".
"Germany, Germany, is above everything, above all things in the world..."
As the familiar melody and lyrics were heard through the speakers placed everywhere, tens of thousands of people in the neighborhood spontaneously joined the chorus, appearing majestic and sad in the low melody, and being excited when entering the high melody. The chorus brought people's once scattered attention to the spotlight again, and also made the military squad successfully advance to the stage. Listening behind him the sound of leather boots stepping on the wooden board, Lynn's originally nervous mood completely relaxed. He raised his arms proudly like a winner, which made Stupfer shout. This scene was deeply imprinted in the minds of tens of thousands of people on the scene, and he also truthfully sucked the camera and the camera lenses.
"Two..."
The officer who walked closer clearly had helplessness and admiration. Lin Neng stopped singing and turned around calmly: "Comrades, do what you should do! Even if our lives are no longer there, the spirit of indomitable will last forever."
After hearing Lin Neng's words of righteousness, the officer standing opposite him looked very conflicted, and this was a typical reflection of the mentality and situation of Germany and the Germans in 1947.
