"Dogen!" Weirle shouted, "Colonel Dogen! ”

"What's the matter!"

Dogan, who was burning with rage, turned his head to glare at Wheeler, his tone full of impatience.

Dougan was on the verge of exploding, completely losing his usual mechanical calm, and now he was bent on making a hole in the head of the shameless traitor in front of him.

But when Dougan turned his face to see Wheeler's expression, his surging anger suddenly collapsed like an avalanche, and turned into a stream of cold sweat that flowed out of his body.

Willer's cold eyes made the strong Dogen shudder, and combined with the hard and serious expression of a rock, the angry SS colonel immediately wilted as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on his head.

Dogen came to his senses, and he suddenly realized that his current behavior was really a little too presumptuous. He looked at Wheeler in embarrassment, then turned his head and glared at Canaris, who was now holding a cup and looking at him indifferently, and slowly inserted the half-drawn pistol back into the leather holster at his waist.

"Colonel Dogan, what do you want to do, sit down and listen to what he has to say."

Wheeler regained his serene expression, and he picked up the bottle on the table and added a little wine to Dogan's can.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, I lost my temper." Dougan hurriedly sat back in his seat, and he nodded respectfully to Wheeler in apology.

"Alright, maybe it's about alcohol, you need to work on your drink, Colonel Dogen, finish your glass, and before we do that, let's hear how General Canaris justifies his actions."

Seeing that although Dougan looked unhappy and helpless, he still honestly picked up the canned food box in front of him, Weierle couldn't help but smile slightly, and then turned his gaze to Canaris.

"Tell me, Wilhelm, where did you protect Germany's interests, and how did you save Germany?"

"What a pity, I thought this SS colonel with a murderous head was going to shoot me. He's really lucky, and he has a smart guy like you to help him. Hmph, it's a pity if he let his master know that he let me die so happily because of his impulse, he won't let him go......" Canaris slowly put down his glass, his defiantly squinted eyes and a leisurely glance at Dogan.

Canaris...... Canaris ......"

Weirle shook his head slowly and said, "I remember telling you just now......"

"Got it, I'm sorry, I apologize!" Canaris said with a quick shake of his hand.

"Well, put away your snarky tongue, I'm not here to listen to your whining, I'm here to see you in search of an answer, I want to know why my friend, who was once my most trusted and respected, betrayed his homeland."

"Betrayal?" Canaris angrily lowered his glass.

"I said that I did not betray Germany, and that everything I did was to defend her."

"Your assistants have all confessed, what is his name, Hans. Colonel Aosta, right? He is your liaison with the rebels, and he participates in most of the rebels' activities on your behalf, including all your dealings with the enemies of Germany.

Your Excellency Admiral Canaris, you have chosen a very reliable subordinate, who lasted only fifteen minutes in the interrogation room of the security department of Zhongyāng, and then very wisely chose to pay allegiance to the Führer. He had told everything he knew, a full 143-page confession.

Add to that the contents of the safe in your office and the mezzanine of your apartment, enough to get you executed fifty times for treason and subversion. ”

Dogan's face was flushed now, and he said coldly with a smug look on his face.

"Yes, I know all this, Hans, this is the only mistake I made, I should have known that as long as I was unreliable, I should have known that as long as I was unreliable."

Canaris shook his head with a wry smile, then he lowered his face and looked into Weierle's eyes and said solemnly: "Weierle, do you want to know why I did those things?" I can tell you, but first answer me a question: do you think Germany will be able to win the war? ”

"Of course, under the leadership of the Führer, we will be able to achieve the final victory!" Dogan shouted loudly, and gave a loud burp as he spoke.

"I didn't ask you, you SS drunkard, and I never expected to get any other answer from your wooden heads."

"Calm down, keep drinking your wine, Colonel Dogen, taste this caviar."

Weirle pressed Dogan, who was about to go crazy, he picked up the bottle and filled Dogan with whiskey, and then put the caviar can in front of Dogan.

"Canaris, I can't answer your question right now, I can only say that with the current situation, we have a good chance of winning."

Wehrle pondered for a moment and then said slowly.

"Yes, it seems that you have been deceived by superficial phenomena, Weierle."

Canaris took a piece of bacon and put it in his mouth, chewing it as he continued: Hitler was a madman, and I remember you agree with that. On the day we attacked Poland, I saw his crazy side, he was completely insane, shouting at me in the office like a mad beast, talking to me about his theories. ”

Canaris swallowed the food in his mouth and took a long sip of his glass.

"We all knew the grave consequences of Germany starting a war again, and this man was so obsessed with war, that I felt how far I had deviated from my previous opinion of the National Socialist Party, and I knew then that this man and his party would surely push Germany into an endless hell, and that Germany would be destroyed because of this madman."

Canaris glanced at Werler as he spoke, trying to find some look of approval on the other man's face. The result disappointed him, and Weirle did not react to his words, but simply tasted the wine slowly.

Canaris turned his face to look at Dogan, only to find that Dougan did not show the anger he had expected, and now the SS colonel was looking at the cans of whiskey.

Feeling a little frustrated, Canaris scratched his nose, and after taking an embarrassed sip of his drink, he continued: "I found that I should re-examine the true face of the National Socialist Party, I did a lot of research, and I was frightened by what I found, that Germany is slowly merging with the National Socialist Party, that man has controlled the whole of Germany in this way, and no one can oppose him, except for a small group of brave and upright people, no one dares to rebel against his rule." ”

"Honest and courageous people? His Excellency Admiral Canaris...... Most of them have become spies for other countries, and I never thought that Germans who were willing to be foreign spies could be regarded as honest and brave, a group of traitors who would only put cold arrows behind their backs to betray their own country and nation......" Dougan said viciously, and after speaking, he took a sip of wine from the canned food box.

"Whatever you may say, it's too complicated for the brains of an SS like yours."

Glancing at Dogan with contempt, Canaris continued: "You know the danger of war, Wheeler, we cannot defeat all our enemies, and although we have achieved very good results, we will also fall into the quagmire of war in order to preserve these results, and I can guarantee that we will sink deeper and deeper until all our strength is exhausted, you will not fail to see that.

Although we won a temporary victory, this victory would definitely not last, Germany was poor in resources, a large number of strategic materials needed to be imported from abroad, our military resources could not support the war for a long time, and our national strength was not as strong as the National Socialist Party advertised.

Our weapons are not much more advanced than the enemy, we are seriously lacking in naval power, our air force is overwhelmed by an idiot, and our head of state is a madman......

What does this mean, it means that Germany will be slowly burned by the flames of war started by that madman, and that our twenty years of hard work and efforts for the revival of Germany will be wasted because of the crazy ambitions of the National Socialist Party, and that Germany will probably be completely destroyed for it. ”

After saying this, Canaris took a long breath, looked at Werler and continued: "So, I have to stop this from happening, and I have contacted the rebels, and they all share my opinion. Germany must be liberated from the rule of the National Socialists, the government of that madman must be overthrown, and by whatever means, it will not matter if Germany suffers some losses temporarily, which is much better than the complete destruction of Germany.

We can rebuild the government, we can re-establish order, we can get help and support from those allies, and Germany will be able to return to the ranks of the great European powers, and I look forward to that day. ”

"So you fell to us at the time of the Führer's confrontation with Hitler." Weirle asked slowly.

"Yes, this is an opportunity, as long as I can beat Hitler, of course I will not give up."

"Then your goal has not been achieved, why did you betray Reinhardt."

"Don't you think your question is stupid, my ultimate goal is to overthrow the rule of the National Socialist Party, and after the elimination of Hitler, how can I possibly pledge allegiance to another Nazi leader, they are all the same kind of people, don't you see?

I can guarantee that now this Reinhardt will turn into another Hitler. Because his current behavior sometimes makes me think that maybe the choice was a mistake, and that this man is definitely more dangerous than Hitler. I know your loyalty to Germany, Werle, and one day you will regret your choice now. ”

Canaris looked up at the high skylight, and now the sun had set, and it was pitch black outside.

Because of Werle, the electric light in the cell was turned on, and Canaris's eyes gleamed with excitement in the dim light.

"You're wrong, Canaris. You don't know Reinhardt. Feng. Stadler, he's definitely not the kind of person you say he is, I believe in my own vision, and I'm pretty sure of that.

You haven't met him, you haven't been in contact with him, you've not talked to him, that's your biggest mistake.

Canaris, I can tell you, in fact, what you said, he discussed it with me, and he was very worried about it. But now that Germany is engaged in the battle, there is no second way to go except to win the final victory, and we must not make any compromises, let alone believe in the so-called sincerity of those foreign powers.

Germany has already demonstrated its incomparably strong fighting power in the world, and Germany has become a threat in the eyes of those countries, and as a head of the intelligence department, you don't even have this strategic vision.

Now, we can only fight like this, and Germany cannot afford a second defeat, which will be a catastrophe for Germany.

We have to win, only victory can break through the current crisis, we have already got on the chariot, and this chariot cannot be stopped until all the enemies are destroyed or destroyed by the enemy. ”

Werler stood up and said to Canaris with a nonchalant expression: "Now I know what you think, you haven't disappointed me too much, Canaris. ”

Weirle patted the Dogan, who was still struggling at the canned food box.

"I think it's time for us to get out of here, Dogen."

Wheeler then led Dougan to the cell door.

"I don't think you're wrong, but you're using the wrong means, Canaris."

Werler walked to the door and stopped, he turned around and said, "You should not betray your country. No amount of noble justification can justify your collusion with foreign powers to betray German interests, and the information you have betrayed and the information you have deliberately withheld will cost countless soldiers their lives, is that what you want?

If Germany fails, will those countries really fulfill their promises to you, and will they allow the Germany that they beat them to the ground to rise again? How stupid, Canaris, you're stupid. I'm glad now that we were able to stop you before you could do any further damage to Germany. God bless Germany, you were dug up by us.

There's no future for you now, so I don't want to say anything like that one day you'll regret what you've done. Well, you still have half an hour to enjoy this last supper......"

With that, Werler turned and walked out of his cell.

"Wait...... Werle......" shouted Canaris as he jumped to his feet.

"Half an hour...... Goodbye, Canaris, my old friend. ”

Wehrle's figure paused at the door, he didn't look back, and then leaned out of the cell.

"Wait, Verle, I have something to say...... Willle ...... Werler ......"

Wheeler walked down the hallway with a somewhat drunken Dougan and Adjutant Werther, and Canaris shouted hoarsely from behind.

"I thought he didn't have a fear of death." Dogen said softly.

"No one doesn't fear death, it's just that sometimes they forget it."

"Do you think you've found the answer?"

"Found it, and I found that my belief in the path we were going to take was stronger. Dogen, how do you feel about this meeting? ”

"It's boring, I think you're right, I really shouldn't have come to this place. I'm a soldier, I just know how to be loyal to my country, and I don't have time to think about anything else. ”

"I see you're thinking about something."

"Where, I didn't think about anything, I just drank a little too much and felt a little dizzy. In addition, I've been restraining myself from wanting to shoot that guy in the head. ”

"Hehe, Dogen, you are indeed a pure warrior."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Excellency."

By the time the three men reached the ground, York had already set up the execution ground, a wooden pillar had been nailed to the ground against a stone wall, four incandescent searchlights illuminated the clearing, and ten armed gendarmes stood with pestles to rest.

"Your Excellency, Mr. General, Mr. Colonel, you see, I have all set it up, should I bring the prisoner in now." Jokes wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and walked over and said earnestly.

"No, in another half an hour."

"Alright, I've prepared some food, and I'll let the guards send it down at once, so I'll have to let him have a final supper."

"I don't need that, I'll bring him something to eat, he's enjoying it now. But my lieutenant hasn't eaten yet, so would you like to get some food for him? ”

"What about you and the Colonel?"

"We've all eaten, and now we want to walk around."

"Yes, yes, Your Excellency."

Willle walked slowly to a corner of the courtyard and sat down on the stones by the cloister.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, look, the stars in the sky, it seems that tomorrow is a good sunny day." Dougan walked over to Werler's side and looked up at the sky.

"yes, I'm going to Paris tomorrow, and I hate to review it on a rainy day."

Wehrle pulled his cigarette case and lighter out of his trouser pocket, then pulled out a folded document from his chest pocket.

Wierle opened the cigarette case, took a cigarette from it, and put it in his ivory mouthpiece.

Then he unfolded the document and examined it in the afterglow of the searchlight, then lit the lighter neatly, and the leaping flames lit the paper.

"General, what is this?" Dogen asked, a little confused.

Wierle raised his hand and lit a cigarette with the paper, and after taking a deep breath, he threw the paper, which was almost burning to his fingers, at his feet.

"The Führer's pardon decree for Canaris." Weirle said indifferently.

"What! What about you? ”

"The Führer asked me to decide at my own discretion whether or not to use this pardon, and this ......"

Weierle pointed to the ashes that were still smoking from the ground.

"That's my answer."
