Chapter 246 Otto Project
In the sky of Vienna, there was a misty drizzle, and the faces of everyone in the Presidential Palace were extremely gloomy.
Austria, is it really coming to an end?
"Well, I agree with Chancellor Schuchnigg's resignation." President Mikras said: "However, I cannot tolerate having Seth as chancellor. If he becomes chancellor of Austria, the whole of Austria will be sold to Hitler."
It goes without saying that Seth is the representative of Germany in Austria! If he were the chancellor, Austria would definitely merge with Germany tomorrow!
"One of the people we are here has to stand up and become prime minister," Mikras said.
His eyes first looked at the chief of the Vienna Police Department. The chief's face was very ugly, and he said that he was incompetent.
Then, the commander of the Austrian Wehrmacht and the former prime minister shook their heads without saying a word.
Now this situation, needless to say? Whoever dares to go up to be the prime minister will be beaten to death! And what if they become prime ministers? The current situation is unsolvable. Whoever goes up will have to agree to the Germans' demands, and whoever will be the sinner of Austria.
Mikras looked sad: "I understand, everyone abandoned me."
Does that even need to be said? No one dared to support him. Miclas is sad.
So Shuschnigg had no choice but to comfort her: "Mr. President, although I have abdicated now, I will continue to stay on the job until you appoint a new head of government."
(Explain that Austria's politics belongs to a parliamentary republic, in which the president has no real power. The president is just a symbol of the country, while the prime minister is the head of the government and has executive power. It can be said that the president is a facade, hosting foreign countries. guests or something.)
After several hours of negotiation, the high-level government of Austria only came up with such a result. When this result was passed on to the Eagle's Nest, the ruler of the empire was of course very dissatisfied!
"President Mikras, I haven't figured out the situation yet." Hearing this news, Hitler was obviously dissatisfied: "Tell this idiot Seth immediately, at the latest at 7:30 tonight, if President Mikras is still If you don't agree to let Seth be president, then Seth has only two options."
"Either Seth seizes power by himself, or the German army helps Seth seize power!" Hitler had stomped on the floor violently, extremely depressed, this Seth, a disciple of Hitler, had absolutely no problem with loyalty, but his ability to come to power was poor. !
What kind of face is Seth still caring about at this time? As a qualified politician, sometimes you have to blacken your face!
"The Führer, our army, is ready to carry out the Otto plan at any time," Cyric said.
The Otto plan was a plan to invade Austria. This plan was not very thorough. Specifically, the German 3rd Army would drive straight in and enter Austria. It had to strive for affinity and avoid war along the way.
The 3rd Army Group is not very famous in history. Two years later, it will be reorganized into the 8th Army Group and has participated in many battles. Now, the commander of the 3rd Army Group is also the famous Feiduo in the history of later generations. Marshal von Bock!
This marshal is worthy of respect. He is outspoken and upright. He is one of the very few senior officers who dared to contradict Hitler, and he is also the only German marshal who died of Allied bullets.
And now, Cyric's 1st Armored Division has withdrawn, so the 1st Armored Division has also participated in this operation, and, because of the high level of mechanization of the 1st Armored Division, they will definitely be the first to enter. The army of Vienna!
Hearing Cyric's words, some of the people present couldn't sit still.
Not everyone agrees with this plan.
The Minister of Defense, Marshal Blomberg, had to retire because he married a whore and became a disgrace to the entire officer corps. After that, Hitler also served as Minister of Defense.
However, there are still many high-ranking officials in the army.
For example, General Keitel.
William Baldwin John Gustav Keitel also climbed up step by step after the First World War, and his fortune has to start with his wife, who was the death of the fanatical Hitler loyal.
He participated in World War I, and spent time in the terrible Verdun meat grinder. After World War I, he served as the commander of the colonel and the commander of the division. In 35 years, Keitel was directly appointed as the director of the War Department from the commander of the division.
Historically, he was promoted to Chief of Staff of the Wehrmacht in February 1938 and became Hitler's most trusted military adviser. But now, history has advanced, and he is already Hitler's military adviser.
In fact, at the beginning, Keitel did not trust Hitler's judgment. He made many suggestions, attacking Poland, attacking the Czech Republic, etc. However, without exception, these almost gambling wars were won.
Therefore, Keitel also became Hitler's die-hard, and by the time of the Soviet war, Keitel was already obedient.
Keitel has always been loyal, even when he was finally hanged on the gallows, he was still very calm.
Now, as Hitler's military advisor, Keitel was with him. In his heart, he did not approve of using force against Austria, but he did not speak.
Because, now there is another figure rising like a god. In the past few years, every action of Cyric has been completely successful! In particular, when Keitel became Hitler's military adviser, he knew about Spain's six hundred tons of gold, and he was completely convinced.
Who else can do it but Cyric?
It's amazing!
In addition to Keitel, there were some people present, and at this time, they were already on pins and needles.
For example, General Brauchich, the commander of the army, was more nervous about this matter.
Just a few days ago, Blomburg married a bitch, which caused Blomburg to withdraw from the army, and then, the army commander, Admiral Fritsch, also reported a sex scandal, and he was not allowed to. Do not retire.
After that, Hitler appointed Brausich as the army commander-in-chief.
Brausich's full name is Walter von Brausich. There is a von in his name, which is a sign of aristocracy, and that's exactly what his father was, once a cavalry general, and Brausich's , and almost devoted his life to Germany.
He participated in the First World War and gradually rose, and he was more prestigious in the army, and it was precisely because of this that he was promoted by Hitler.
Now, Brausic is not sure about this action, he is skeptical, his heart is struggling fiercely, and in the end, he has not stood up for anything.
