Chapter 35 The Prelude to the Sound
The German people rarely go out recently. They are more willing to wait at home for the result of the power struggle....com People who have radios at home turn on the radios at every moment, hoping to learn more about the situation.
Junkers, led by Hal, certainly knew the importance of information dissemination. They had already implemented military control on the radio station long before the plan began, and always emphasized that this was a forced counterattack. They used high-profile instructions to tell the German people that they were forced to resist. The information spreading to the radio station was constantly repeating the content of the black plan and the reasons why the stormtroopers were cleaned.
The civilians would not care about why the stormtroopers were cleaned. They paid more attention to the content of the black scheme and were incredible about the series of cleaning plans mentioned in the content.
"Didn't Germany have been together for a long time? Why are there such a big difference? Why should the command system of the National Defense Forces be cleaned? The National Defense Forces are the national armed forces and the force to defend the peace of Germany. Why should they be cleaned?"
There are too many question marks in the hearts of the people. No one has ever told them that the leader of the KMT Party and the head of the empire hate the National Defense Forces so much. What the people learned from the information is that the KMT Party and the National Defense Forces are both the key to the rise of Germany, and they have been working together to build a bright future for Germany.
"We have been working hard for them to fight in the internal struggle!" The people were a little angry, but after anger, they were more confused.
"Who should we stand on?" The people were at a loss.
Just when the people were confused and didn't know what to do, the Minister of Finance, whom they loved, came out to speak. The three-hour speech did not insult, nor did they describe Hitler as an unforgivable sinner. He emphasized that this was an internal conflict in Germany and advised people not to be exploited by either party.
From the speech, the people understood a lot, but they still felt very confused: It was going to be a civil war? It seems that yes, the National Defense Forces have begun to attack provinces controlled by Hitler. But why is this happening?
No one told them why, so they could only keep waiting.

Hal was waiting for the generals to finish reading the documents, his thoughts had already floated to Amstetten, Austria.
The document contains a lot of content, which lists Germany's future development plans in detail. People's livelihood construction has been improved. With the joint efforts of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of People's Livelihood in Hal, Germany's unemployment rate has dropped to 1.3%. Such a low unemployment rate is enough to make Germany feel proud and proud.
From 1932 to 1937, Germany's pig iron production increased from 3.9 million tons to 1.6 million tons, and steel production increased from 5.6 million tons to 23.2 million tons. In early 1934, the German Defense Commission approved a plan to mobilize 240,000 factories to supply war orders. From 1933 to 1936, Germany built more than 300 new arsenals, including 55 aircraft factories, 40 automobile and tank factories, 70 chemical factories, 15 shipyards and 0 artillery factories.
Hal confidently believes that after the statistics of this year come out, the world will continue to be surprised by Germany's rapid development. Internal data shows that with mature production control, Germany's pig iron production can exceed the 20 million tons this year, and steel production can reach 2 million tons. In addition, in the six months of this year, the German Defense Working Committee approved a total of 60,000 arsenals to supply war orders, which means that Germany has the ability to produce more weapons for war at any time!
From the implementation date of the four-year plan, Germany will rely on trade to obtain a large amount of resources from 16 countries including China, the United States, Denmark, Norway, Switzerland, the Soviet Union, Argentina, Brazil, Bulgaria, Finland, Romania.... As a corresponding one, Germany provides industrial products and light weapons to 16 countries.
The Red Sea is Germany's only trade port. In order to cope with the increasingly tense trade security situation in the Red Sea, Germany approved the construction of three state-controlled shipyards in 1937.
The Seedlez aircraft carrier and the Graf Zeppelin aircraft carrier, among the five aircraft carriers that were previously secretly built, will be launched in March 2019 and are expected to be put into service in the month. The other three aircraft carriers are expected to be completed in 40-42 respectively.
In addition, the six Hindenburg-class battleships, three class battle patrols, 12 class pocket battleships, 1 various destroyers, 167 minesweepers, 6 mine-breaking ships, 6 mine-breaking ships, 7 Vii-class submarines, 112 ix-class submarines, and 2 various auxiliary ships are expected to enter the Imperial Navy to serve in 39-41.
Given the Henkel E111 medium bomber and the Messerchmit BF109 interceptor performed well in the Spanish War, the Defense Force decided to add a large amount of production, and it is expected that 500 to 00 aircraft will be added to the Air Force from 1939 to 1940 respectively.
Due to the strong demands of the National Defense Army, Stuka J-7 also added a large amount of production accordingly. Guderian, Manstein, Longdstedt... and other army generals saw the support role of Stuka J-7 on the battlefield and its critical role in a sudden attack. They suggested that the army troops have a special Stuka J-7 company. This suggestion was previously rejected by Gorene.
Regarding the international community's view on Germany's internal affairs, Hal's suggestion is to continue to be tough, and Germany cannot change its demand for living space. Foreign Minister Bethrich ordered to send a note to all countries, requiring all countries to accept personnel changes from the German power leadership.
Publish the following command:
Keseling was promoted to Air Force General and took over as Air Force Chief.
This man was an advocate of the Army's aviation theory. The generals had reason to believe that after Kesseling became the chief of the Air Force, the army's air support system would be strongly developed. He was a staunch member of the National Defense Force, and his previous position was the Chief of Staff of the Air Force. The organization and training of the entire Air Force, as well as the combat use and logistics support of the anti-aircraft artillery, the Air Force communications, and the airborne troops were all in his hands. His contribution was very important to the National Defense Force, and no one would object to his promotion from Lieutenant General to take over the position of Chief of the Imperial Air Force.
In fact, Kesselin was almost removed from his post as Chief of Staff due to a disagreement with Gorene's confidant Deputy Minister of the Air Force, Mirch, and was almost dismissed from his post as Chief of Staff. Harr used his prestige and power to make him safely serve in the Air Force. This former artillery system personnel who loves flying is very grateful to Harr. You must know that for a while, no one dared to have conflicts with people from the Hitler system.
Alfred Krupp was appointed Minister of the Emperor's Armor.
It has to be explained that this is obviously another political transaction. However, Hal firmly believes that the benefit of this political transaction will be the entire German Empire. Alfred Krupp is very good at managing. What is even more rare is that he is a smart politician who knows how to pay to get attention.
Alfred Krupp joined the KS Party in 1930 and became a member of the Stark group. He was a staunch German radical and always believed that Germany needed a war! In 1936, Alfred Krupp officially took over the power of the Krupp Military Industry Group from his father Kstav Krupp, and then became more radical, believing that the role of tanks in the war would be irreplaceable to anything, and had an extraordinary friendship with Stark, because of the common emphasis on tanks.
Reinhard Heidrich was promoted to Imperial Minister of Security.
This proposal was opposed by the generals. They feared the Gestapo under Heidrich's control and cursed the Gestapo for surveillance of them countless times, believing that Heidrich was an extremely cruel executioner. When the stormtrooper was cleaned in 1934, four generals were framed by Heidrich, who was still the head of a small department at the time, and finally had to retire in shame. The generals believed from beginning to end that Heidrich was not their person, and the promiscuous person kicked out by the navy was not qualified to hold such an important position.
Hal ended the generals' opposition with a sentence "The Empire needs a cruel Minister of Security." Although the generals were still unwilling to accept it, since the order had been issued, opposition seemed inappropriate. They all looked at Hal, who was about to be the head of the empire with confusion, and didn't know what they were thinking.
