The Third Reich

Chapter 247 Grumpy Night

Brausic has the ability, came from a military family, and was born with a military sense of smell, but, on the other hand, Brausic is also quite shrewd in the officialdom.

The Führer Hitler was very happy, Cyric was very excited, and the military advisor didn't say a word. In this case, he stood up to oppose it? Of course this is not good. Maybe, as the commander-in-chief of the army, he will have to get out within a few days.

So, Brausic didn't say anything else, he was just that character.

In later generations, when Hitler was eager to attack the Czech Republic and Poland, Admiral Baker put forward his opinion that this policy would lead to Western intervention, which would lead to World War II.

All the officers present, with the exception of Busch and Reichenau, including Brauchich himself, agreed with Baker. So Brausic took everyone's joint proposal to meet Hitler and made a statement.

As a result, Hitler unquestionably rejected the warnings of the General Staff and the Commander-in-Chief of the Army. Brauchic, on the other hand, seemed to have done his duty and stopped talking.

In later generations' evaluation of Brauchich, this person would rather accept decisions suggested by others than take the initiative to make decisions and implement them. Moreover, he often avoided decisions in the hope of avoiding a fight with Hitler.

It is precisely because of this that Brauchich eventually became the field marshal of the Empire, the third person after Hitler and Goering. This kind of prudent way of being an official is quite similar to Huaxia, who pays attention to the golden mean.

Now, seeing that no one was talking, he kept silent, and the meeting soon broke up, and in the back garden, Brausich caught up with Keitel.

"General Keitel, don't you think it's too risky to do this now?" Brausic said to Keitel: "Even if Italy no longer supports Austria, and Britain and France, especially France, how can it be possible? Watching our power continue to expand."

Germany and France are a feud, and the last war was even more profound. After World War I, France spared no effort in how to weaken Germany. Now, can France watch Germany annex Austria?

Certainly not! In other words, France will definitely interfere! And what will happen after the French intervention, it is hard to say!

If not, it will lead to a world war!

This is Brausic's concern.

"Why don't you talk to the Führer? Let's see if we can terminate this Otto project." Brausic said.

"Okay, I'll go talk." Keitel agreed to Brausich.

He turned to leave, went to a room upstairs, and smoked a cigarette, while Brauchic, who had been stomping in the garden, waited for Ketel.

"I'm very sorry, the Führer insists on marching into Austria, there's no room to talk about it." After smoking a cigarette, Keitel came out and said to him.

Hearing his words, Brausich sat down on the chair with a very frustrated face, and the second chief of staff of the Army, General Wibaan, was even more uneasy and could not help but blurt out: "Germany is over, God bless Germany. !"

Although the German Wehrmacht has been expanding in recent years, after all, it has been greatly weakened after World War I, and they have not yet completed preparations for a third world war.

Not everyone was as confident as Hitler.

On the German side, the senior army officials were worried, while on the other side, Austria, was even more stormy.

Seth, who put down the phone, was also very upset. Hitler's reply to him was already an ultimatum, either he seized power himself, or the German army helped him seize power!

If he seized power himself, then he became the chancellor of Austria, and Austria and Germany merged, and he could maintain a certain degree of autonomy. If the German army helped him seize power, then he would have no rights at all.

Seth needs to work hard for his own future!

Now, at night, the lights are bright. As an ancient city in Europe, Vienna has an ancient artistic atmosphere. After night, it is also very lively.

But this evening, the crowd walking on the street found a different situation.

I don't know when, on the streets, a large number of armed people gathered, holding swastika flags high in their hands and shouting slogans loudly.

"Long live Hitler! Long live victory! Hang Shuschnigg!"

"We're going to merge with Germany!"

These people are Seth's final plan. He instigated his party members to go and besiege the Prime Minister's Office!

At the same time, the news that these people were heading towards the Chancellery soon reached Shuschnigg's ears, and he stood up at once, trotting all the way, to find the president!

There's no way, this job can't be done, and if you continue to do it, you'll die. Of course, he remembers how the previous prime minister was killed.

"Your Excellency, there is no hope for Austria. If we do not agree with Germany's demands, a military conflict between Germany and Austria will be inevitable. Please, Your Excellency, understand the situation and compromise with Germany." Schnigg, running in front of the president, said to him.

"It's not that I don't know, but I don't want to submit to Hitler." Mikras was still stubborn.

"Your Excellency, if the German army invades, Vienna, the capital of art, will cease to exist, and the whole of Austria will be doomed. Please think twice!" Shuschnigg almost shouted.

Those parades on the streets, in the eyes of Shuschnigg, are a precursor to the German invasion, and there is not much time left for our own side!

Austria, there is no way out!

Dead fight? Austria is not an opponent at all, it can only make more people die in vain, and most of the people are Germanic, and the battle between people of the same race is so sad.

President Mikras was at a loss: "At most, I agree that when the German army invaded, we did not resist, that is to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, but morally, I do not agree to appoint a member of the Workers' Party as prime minister."

If Germany invaded without resistance at best, that would be a fearless sacrifice, but he could not make it possible for him to appoint Hitler's henchmen as chancellor.

The current President Mikras is still in a mood, and he still doesn't understand the situation! Shuschnigg is determined, but he can't mess with him anymore, or he will be finished.

"So, Your Excellency, I will give a speech on the radio to inform the situation of the Austrian People's Government, I will announce my official resignation, and I will call on the Austrian nationals not to make senseless resistance to the German invasion."

I have to resign quickly, it's too late, I'm afraid my head will fall.

"Okay, my Prime Minister, goodbye. May God bless Austria." Mikras was alone at this time, and only God was with him.

"Goodbye, Your Excellency. May God bless Austria." Shuschnigg's heart was also sour, but he ran away more quickly and hurried to the radio room!
