"At this moment, although we have been involved in bloody wars due to various misunderstandings and differences, I still have a great dream of uniting all of Europe!

I dream of a day when rivals and their children and grandchildren will sit together amicably, and that tragic stories like Mr. Ranke and Mr. MacDonald will never be told again;

I dream that one day, the great nations that have fought fiercely and fought for living space will be able to cast their vision to the whole world, to the whole galaxy, the earth is very large, the universe is even vast, and it can fully accommodate the next great Germany and the next great Britain;

I dream of a day when the whole of Europe will maintain healthy competition, and countries will compete with each other on science and technology, sports, culture and arts, rather than guns, tanks, and airplanes.

I dream that one day, this alliance that transcends nations will be able to stand on top of the world and achieve the great goal of a peaceful Europe, a friendly Europe, a prosperous Europe, and a united Europe!

I dream of the day when Britain will be able to spread his constitution and liberty throughout the world, France will be able to proclaim his equality and fraternity throughout the world, and Germany will be able to proclaim his order and reason throughout the world, which are the highest and most precious qualities of mankind throughout the world

I dream that one day, Europe, which has always been the pioneer, will engrave its historical heritage, long culture, noble quality and ideal society into the annals of human history, so that the European Union will become a community with a shared future for all European people and a noble model of human society.

Let Europe return to calm, friendship, prosperity and common development after 2,000 years of war"

The people in parliament did not know what Hoffman was going to say at first, and many people thought that the Führer would speak like a political speech to the United States, which many people remembered, but then realized that they were completely wrong. Except for the warm handshake with King Edward VIII and Prime Minister Attlee, who said it was a "five-year-late, cross-channel handshake", the Führer did not say much about the war, but instead changed his mind and comprehensively set out his expectations for the future of the European Union and the United Nations.

From Hoffman's standpoint, it is easy to shift the responsibility for the war to the British, and it seems reasonable to accuse the British of refusing to accept the Anglo-German rapprochement in the first place, so much so that they have suffered many casualties after five years of fighting, but this kind of remark has no positive meaning except to vent their anger. Leaving aside whether the British are willing to admit their responsibility, even if they do? Rubbing salt on each other's wounds?

Therefore, in his speech, he emphasized the idea that this is a war caused by misunderstandings, prejudices and disagreements, and it is a human tragedy that has escaped alive, but now that the war is over, everyone must look forward.

This explanation and rhetoric was far beyond the expectations of the Parliamentarians, who had expected the Führer to boast and coerce and induce Great Britain to comply.

Unexpectedly, the Germans never talked about the war, and even avoided using the word victory, emphasizing that Great Britain and the British Empire had not lost, and the politicians chose an armistice out of the fundamental interests of the people and the long-term peace and stability of Europe. Of course, this kind of self-deception cannot mislead the battle-hardened parliamentarians, but it is completely sufficient to confuse the eyes and influence the people, and it is also in line with the common reason of the ordinary British people who hate war, yearn for peace, and hope for stability.

Hoffman believed that after five years of exhausting fighting, a normal Englishman was eager for relaxation, and that if Germany could give Great Britain reasonable treatment, a suitable step, and a seemingly beautiful vision, it would be easy to eliminate the uneasiness and confrontation between the two countries as soon as possible.

It can also be seen from the atmosphere of the scene that the initial applause of the parliamentarians was polite, and in the end it gradually became warm and friendly, and he did not dare to hope that the British would completely forget the dead and wounded people, the lost materials and the heavy price paid in five years through a single speech, but at least everyone could sit down calmly and talk about cooperation.

He believes that there are still large and small countries in Europe who are interested in his trip to the UK and the elaboration of the EU, so he must try to avoid the impression that the EU is a political entity that transcends all countries, which will make the big countries doubt their interests and make the small countries fear the loss of independence.

Black Cat and Attlee were very pleased with Hoffmann's speech: the Germans were humble and friendly, which laid the groundwork for the new government to follow up and avoid being attacked as a traitorous government or a puppet government. In fact, what Great Britain lost in the war, including the Royal Navy and the colonial empires across the globe, was difficult to recover and change, but at least it maintained the imperial shelf, and at the same time gained some previously unexpected benefits through the EU framework, which is what they strive for.

All unbiased politicians and public opinion admit that the peace conditions given by Germany to Britain are much more tolerant than those given to Germany by Britain in the last war, and that without this sense and posture of reconciliation, Britain and Germany will have to fight a third world war sooner or later!

In the afternoon, Hoffmann, accompanied by other dignitaries, visited the relatives of General Montgomery and Field Marshal Pound, and because of his insistence and manipulation, the Axis was quite open on the matter of Montgomery's funeral, and he had seen the leaflets at the beginning, and even the bereaved family could not say anything about whether Montgomery committed suicide and not died at the hands of Germany, which gave the situation a great deal of leeway. As for the death of Marshal Pound, the "indignation" shown by the German side and the indifference of the American side caused the same concern of public opinion, and now they began to sing praises for the Germans: "The knight on the opposite side defeated me with a long sword with dignity, while my ally took out a dagger behind his back"

At the official state dinner in the evening, Hoffman, who appeared in a low-key manner, did not mention politics, military affairs, and diplomacy, but talked with dignitaries and celebrities about classical sonnets, Shakespeare and Byron, Dickens, Francis Bacon and David Hume's Enlightenment philosophy, and at the same time talked about English classical painting (which is the Führer's business), talked about Adam Smith and David Ricardo's economic thought, and even openly admitted it. The series of economic policies he adopted in Germany were partly inspired by Keynes's "expansionary fiscal" spending, believing that his economic theories would have practical guiding significance for the future operation of the European Union, the International Monetary and Economic Organization, the World Bank, and the European Bank for Reconstruction in the future, and he was willing to hire him as chief economist, although Keynes himself was not present.

It may not be difficult for a head of state to talk about these things in general, but it is very difficult to talk about depth and level, and Hoffmann's attainments and level in this field are certainly not comparable to the former Austrian corporal, and even Goebbels was stunned next to him, he thought that he was going to help the Führer fill in the gaps, but he did not expect that the Führer knew more than him. At that moment, he had the illusion that he was not in front of a political leader who led the Third Reich to a brilliant victory, but rather a scholar.

The Times reported: The Führer is very familiar with these economic, cultural, academic, and artistic fields, and can report the deeds of famous British scholars and their mainstream views like a number of treasures, and even most of the time in English to express that he knows more about the fields outside politics than traditional British politicians, and is far from being a vulgar martial artist or a bombastic politician as we understand him, and we see in him erudition, friendliness and sincerity, and he genuinely admires British thought, ideas and culture. It is considered to be an unrivaled treasure on the planet!

In addition to the noble field, Hoffman naturally also talks about the secular field: for example, he plans to set up an international exchange program, and regularly select 20003000 young students to study abroad in each other's high schools and universities every year, which is good for the next generation to enhance mutual trust; He hopes that football club competitions can resume as soon as possible, and that football clubs in Germany, France, Britain and Italy should hold regular cross-border club competitions once a month to participate in competitions such as the "Champions Cup" and "UEFA Cup", and even said that elite athletes can be allowed to exchange across borders; He hopes to resume traditional competitions in sailing and car rallying, so that the Olympic Games can resume as soon as possible after a hiatus of several years. He also hopes to open an undersea tunnel that will allow the two sides of the English Channel to establish a direct link as soon as possible

Although all these ideas are whimsical, they are indeed possible when analyzed in detail, which makes the British people look forward to a beautiful future in addition to surprise.

As soon as his speech was published, it immediately became the talk of the leading trend, and many newspapers were talking about the European union and common development he envisioned, believing that this was the only way to resolve the relations between major powers in the new era, and although there would still be contradictions and disputes between Britain and Germany, it would at least be better than fighting a war at every turn, and as the weapons of war became more and more powerful, fighting a third world war in the future was likely to cause the extinction of mankind.
