Nonmaki Home and Country Chapter 50 Beer Hall 2

Gu Weijun, who returned to the consulate, saw the military attaché of the consulate and the agents of the intelligence bureau waiting outside his office, and immediately felt that things should be worse than he imagined.

"There will be a coup d'état in Munich soon." As soon as the military attache saw him coming, he told the truth, and what he said was different from what the secretary had just said - the secretary had just said that the Duchess Wilhelm was in a beer hall outside the city, and that the people in the beer hall were about to riot, not the coup d'état that the military attaché had said. "The Duke is also involved."

"She... What do they want to do? "Rebecca. Wilhelm was the orphan daughter of Duke Wilhelm, and her well-being was always the focus of the Consulate in Munich. Gu Weijun knew about Rebecca's situation, she joined the National Socialist Party before he took office, an organization where post-war veterans vented their grievances, and often met in beer halls to give speeches, and it is said that Rebecca provided the money for the operation of the National Socialist Party, and she was the Duchess of all members of the National Socialist Party. In the past, it was just a party, but now I want a coup d'état, it's really ......

"They want to seize power from the Bavarian state government and then march on Berlin, as Mussolini did last year." An elderly agent of the Intelligence Bureau said that he was actually an ordinary yellow man who could not be more ordinary, inconspicuous; And his name is guessed according to Gu Weijun's experience, and it is very likely that he is called Zhang San. Sure enough, after this person finished speaking, he introduced himself: "In Xia Zhang San, I work in the Intelligence Bureau, and I hope that Master Gu will do some cooperation." ”

"Well said, well said." Gu Weijun said politely, at this time, the door of the office had been opened, and the lights in the room had also been turned on. After everyone sat down and closed the door, he said, "May I ask what your Excellency wants me to do?" ”

"When the state government calls and asks if we support a coup. Master Gu said that he had no idea about this and would never support it. Zhang San said. Be sure to tell them that we are against what is happening. ”

"Understood." Normally, it would be enough to tell the state government that it doesn't know, but now it's an obvious attitude to express its unequivocal opposition. Gu Weijun suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked, "Then what about Lord Duke?" If the state government sends troops to suppress it, her safety will be ......"

"We are responsible for the safety of adults." Zhang San glanced at the phone on the desk and said indifferently, "Please also ask Master Gu to rest here, let's work hard all night." ”

Zhang San's request was not excessive. It's just that Gu Weijun can't imagine what happened in the beer hall. Just as he was thinking about the beer hall, the situation was in turmoil in the Bergblau tavern, on the other side of the Isa River, less than a kilometre from Munich.

It was originally the state government von. It was here that the Carr commissioners held a 'patriotic demonstration' and invited Strassel, the leader of the National Socialist Party, to participate. This is likely to be a trap, as the state government is preparing to outlaw the National Socialist Party, arrest the National Socialist stalwarts, and then most likely declare Bavaria to secede from Berlin and resume the rule of the Wittelsbach dynasty. The Nationalist Socialists, who had received the invitation, prepared to turn their countermeasures into the fold and lead the SA to besiege the Bergblau Tavern and take the opportunity to stage a coup d'état.

At this time. The largest tavern in Munich, with a capacity of 3,000 people, had just been easily taken over by the stormtroopers. Amid the lights and smoke, the hall was in chaos, and the officers, officials, and crowds gathered were expressing their anger and displeasure with thumping platforms, screaming, and whistling, while stormtroopers, wearing gray leather jackets, ski hats, and swastika on their sleeves, were trying to maintain order. Silence was at their wit's endeavour—Captain Goering was directing them, and machine guns were set up in the attic; Meanwhile, the leader of the SA, Captain Rohm, was on standby with 2,000 'Battle Leagues' and SA members at the Rowen Blau Tavern, where he started.

According to information disclosed afterwards by an American journalist who was present at the time. The coup d'état was led by the leader of the National Socialist Party, Gregor Gregor. Strass, the main sponsor of the National Socialist Party, Rebecca. Duke William, and Strass's secretary Paul. Joseph. Goebbels, Rudolph. Hess, leader of the stormtroopers, Ernst. Captain Rohm, Herman. William. Captain Goering and others planned to launch it together. Captain Goering and Lord Wilhelm played a key role in the coward's preparation for Strassel's retreat.

Whether the American journalist's message is correct or not does not need to be investigated, but at this time it is in the middle of the hall. Rebecca is arguing with Ludendorff, who was in favor of the coup, but angrily disagrees with the Bavarian Triumvirate in the tavern who are under house arrest by the stormtroopers. Feng. Commissar Karl did not mention it, but the chief of police, Colonel Seiser and General Losov, were both German officers, and it was unacceptable for Ludendorff to imprison them in such a brutal way.

"Uncle Erich, if we let them go, the coup will never succeed and we will all go to jail!" At the age of twenty, Rebecca had become a mixed-race beauty, with sunken eyes like those of a Germanic, a high forehead and a bridge of the nose, and the only characteristic of a yellow person was black eyes and pale black hair, but her speech and demeanor were no different from those of a German, or more precisely, of a German soldier.

She was now waving her arms like a German soldier, emphasizing that her plan was perfectly correct—that by controlling the Big Three at this gathering, the SA would be able to control all of Munich before dawn, and that by noon or afternoon, the National Socialist Party, already with 100,000 members, would lead countless angry masses to march to Berlin—to overthrow the humiliating Weimar government and purge the German government of the hundreds of thousands of traitorous Communists.

Leo. After William's death, Ludendorff took good care of Rebecca, so she was looking at General Ludendorff with the expectant eyes of a little girl. Thinking of her regretful death of her father, and then thinking of the current situation in Germany, Ludendorff finally made a compromise, he reluctantly nodded: "But you can't keep them in small houses, even if they are prisoners, you should maintain the dignity of German officers." ”

"Yes, General!" Strasser, the party leader on one side, immediately ordered his subordinates to release them from the small side, and then he said excitedly: "General, the situation is very chaotic now, and we need your support,"

"Yes, I will give a speech to them. Tell them that everything we do is for Germany. Ludendorff nodded flatly, he already had a lot of complaints about the Weimar government. This time, the inflation, which turned all the propertied into poor eggs, made him even more outright angry. This is not resistance to the French. This is a merciless harvest for every German.

Seeing Ludendorff nodding, Strasser motioned to his men to open the door to the podium, and as soon as the door opened, a wave followed, and Captain Goering hurried in, and he said with some panic: "The people are very angry, they are laughing and insulting......"

"What's the hurry?!" Rebecca glared at Goering. This man, a former hero of the European War, is now a pilot of her special plane, "and the general will help us prove that the revolution is the most justified act." ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Duke." A panicked Goering was glared at by Rebecca. It was quiet in the moment.

"General......" Strasse looked at the door and glanced at Ludendorff, who was not frightened by the stage in military uniform, and strode out of the room, towards the hall full of whistling, screaming and confusion.

Captain Goering followed closely behind General Ludendorff, and he tried his best to hoarse at the crowd below: "General Ludendorff is here, please be quiet!" General Ludendorff is here, please be quiet! ”。 But the people were not quiet, and the situation in the hall was still out of control.

'Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! ......'Seeing that the situation was still out of control, Rebecca, who was walking behind Strassel, drew a curved ruler pistol and fired several shots at the ceiling. The crowd below was terrified. The scene immediately fell silent. At this time, Ludendorff found a space and began to speak: "Citizens of Germany, we can no longer endure the enslavement of the traitorous government, and Bavaria will overthrow the state government subordinate to the traitors tonight." And then lead all the patriots to Berlin - to save the German people! ”

Ludendorff was known to everyone as the commander-in-chief of the German army, and it was he who said that Germany was not defeated militarily. Instead, he was 'stabbed in the back'. The quiet crowd suddenly heard that he was going to overthrow the state government and march on Berlin. It's another big mess. Seeing this, Strasser was standing next to him and shouted: "The National Socialist revolution has broken out!" Karl, General Losov, Colonel Sessel had already made their own choices, and they fully supported the revolution. Do you want to object? ”

Although Strasser had lied, the crowd below could not make up their minds, and after the unspeakable Ludendorff stepped aside, Strasser continued: "Whether you agree with the revolution or not, you are already in the midst of the revolution, and perhaps Berlin now knows what is happening here, and is sending troops to Munich." The only option we can make is to overthrow the state government, and then unite all the patriots to march into Berlin, to overthrow the traitorous government, which has long been manipulated by the Jewish bankers, and only then can we save Germany and ourselves......"

Strasser was tall, round-faced, and had a Bavarian warmth. In normal times, he is a very intelligent and capable person, and his oratorical talent is extremely good, but in Rebecca's opinion, it is difficult for this enthusiastic person to arouse the anger of the audience when he gives a speech - according to Ms. Qiu Jin, the highest level of speech is to arouse the audience's empathy rather than their thinking. Rather, the audience is an unmodulated instrument, and the speaker must begin by familiarizing himself with the timbre of the instrument and finding the right rhythm before arousing their enthusiasm. In other words, it is useless to reason with them, you have to make them excited and angry.

Seeing that Strassel's speech made more and more people shake their heads, Rebecca couldn't help but pull out her pistol again and fire at the ceiling, when the whole audience looked at her, she didn't speak immediately, the venue was puzzled for a while, and when everyone gradually lost patience and wanted to return to chaos, she suddenly scolded: "What a group of cowards!" ”

Her Royal Highness the Duchess of the National Socialist Party was the center of attention and the talk of everyone in Munich - many people were saying that she had slept with countless National Socialist Party members and was a slut; But there are more people who think that her Chinese heritage makes her extremely chaste, and she never looks at the wild bees and butterflies around her, and is still a virgin. Arguments abounded everywhere, but regardless of the arguments that were supported, she was a celebrity in Munich.

Rebecca's curse caused an uproar in the crowd sitting in front, and while the unknown crowd behind was curious, a decent gentleman seemed to want to stand up and ask on behalf of all those who didn't hear clearly—he was obviously a loyal supporter of Rebecca, bowed and asked loudly, "Dear Royal Highness, what are you talking about?" ”

"Dear sir, we are a bunch of cowards!" Rebecca said loudly. What she wanted was to arouse the curiosity of the audience, and now someone took the initiative to join in. She couldn't ask for it, but her face was still cold.

"Oh......" after hearing her words clearly. There was another uproar in the audience. Rebecca didn't want them to think too much, she was going to beat them and humiliate them with machine-gun language. Ultimately provoke their anger. She said loudly without pause, "Isn't it? Gentlemen. Doesn't what is happening in Germany just show that you, the men of Germany, are all cowards who can't protect their wives and daughters?!

Before it was the humiliation of defeat! The German soldiers were conscientious in their duties, fearless in the face of enemy fire, and held out to the last moment of the battle and even now. And you, dear gentlemen, what were you doing behind the scenes? You listened to the provocations of the Jews and the Communists and supported the armistice, so that Germany was finally betrayed and reduced to the present situation.

Yes. The war is over, but bullying and slavery have just begun! Look at your bank statements and pockets! Will the money in your pockets pay for tomorrow's dinner? Didn't your wives complain to you that all the savings of the family had been spent? Maybe tomorrow, maybe you won't be able to afford bread for the next few days, and your children will have to rely on vines to survive this cold winter.

I know you want to be patient, but how long are you going to endure?! Patience to the point of selling for 100 billion marks per beer? Patience until all the valuable things in Germany were taken away by the Jews? The women who were so patient that Germany had to sleep with French men because they couldn't bear hunger and because of a bite of bread?!

The Communist Party strangled us! The Jews exploit us! But what really got us into the current situation was the inaction of all the men in Germany!! You have forgotten the glorious and proud history of Germany! You have abandoned the noble and unyielding dignity of your ancestors! You have degenerated into cowards, and philistines count the marks that have become waste paper in your pockets. Calculate all the moves that can make you profitable. Is this really Germany? Is this really Germany?! Is this really Germany?!! ”

At this point, Rebecca questioned everyone repeatedly with tears in her eyes, and her sobs reached everyone's ears through the microphone, and everyone stood on the spot. Just when people were full of shame and overwhelmed, she suddenly sang: "

Germany, Germany. above all else,

above time all things;

Whenever. In order to protect and defend,

Brothers stand together forever.

From Maas to Moor.

From Esch to Penta,

……”

Rebecca has a good voice, and she has tears and helplessness that men can't have. Even the thickest-skinned politician had to bow his head when she questioned with tears, and the whole hall was silent except for her sobs; And when she suddenly sang that Germany was above all else, the 'cowards' who had been captured by her could not help but sing aloud, and countless people burst into tears.

The coup d'état went very smoothly, including the participation of the anti-National Socialist police who had been maintaining order here and opposing the National Socialist Party in the takeover of the Munich state government, and the military district headquarters, the city government, the police station, the railway station, the post office, the radio station and all other public facilities were occupied by the SA. At seven o'clock in the morning, the Marnelliplatz on the side of the town hall was already crowded with stormtroopers, who were in a hurry to eat breakfast and wait for the final order to march into Berlin.

In the city hall, which was full of flags, the too easy success caused confusion among the National Socialists, who thought that Bavaria should be declared independent first, and then march on Berlin after the annexation of the southern regions; Others thought that it was not necessary to do so, and that the Communists in Bavaria should be swept away before marching on Berlin; The final suggestion was to march to Berlin at noon, according to the previous plan.

While the crowd was arguing, bad news came that the angry Bavarian Crown Prince Luberecht had fled overnight to Augsburg, where he had telegraphed the whole country to condemn the rebellion and claim that a blind rebellion would throw Bavaria into the abyss along with Germany.

Crown Prince Luberecht was not a government official, and the Weimar Republic not only did not give him power, but also confiscated a lot of royal property and land. Despite this, Lubrecht's power in Bavaria meant that the National Socialist Party had only symbolically imprisoned him – trapping him somewhere in the city without any intention of capturing him. Unexpectedly, this big fish that slipped through the net actually announced a telegram in Augsburg, dozens of kilometers away.

The Kuomintang Socialist Party can receive the telegram, and Gu Weijun's consulate can naturally also receive this telegram. By this time he had stayed up all night, and no one had called him to ask about his attitude towards the coup. Faced with the fact that the National Socialist Party had taken control of Munich. Presumably, the German Chancellor personally called the Chinese Embassy in Berlin to test China's attitude towards the rebellion.

"What now?" Gu Weijun put down the telegram and asked. Zhang San also stayed up all night with him, but he was not affected at all.

"Not surprisingly. The armies of Berlin and Bavaria were concentrated in Munich. Zhang San said calmly. The National Socialist Party will collapse in a day if it does not support it. ”

"Then ......" Seeing that Zhang San was so sure, Gu Weijun began to worry about Rebecca's safety.

"I'll go and ask the Duke to get out of the way. There may be an accident, Lord Gu should let the infirmary be on standby, is there still plasma in the consulate's freezer? Zhang San asked.

"Yes..., yes." Gu Weijun didn't know what was in the ice storage in the basement of the consulate, and when he saw Zhang San asking at this time, he realized that it was plasma where it was placed. He knew that it was not for himself, and he couldn't help but curse a damn nobleman.

Fortunately, Zhang San didn't care what he thought, according to the judgment of the General Administration. The coup d'état from the beer hall would soon be suppressed – the Bavarian triumvirate was only thinking of independence from the German Confederation and did not want to march into Berlin with the madmen of the National Socialist Party. I didn't want the Big Three to compromise (Zhang San didn't expect that these three people would be tightly imprisoned by the National Socialist Party, and they did not take advantage of Hitler's absence and Ludendorff's credulity to leave one by one as history), and the whole of Munich was controlled by them.

Even if it controlled Munich, it would be difficult for the National Socialist Party to achieve the effect of Mussolini's march into Rome, the first of which was that the National Socialist Party was not a national party, and it did not have a parliamentary seat before; Secondly, Italy is a monarchy, Germany is a federal state, and even if the whole of Bavaria is controlled by the National Socialists, they cannot immediately control the other states, let alone the whole of Germany; And most importantly, there is one more important point. Munich is more than 500 kilometers from Berlin, and the Tyrrhenian Sea is less than 100 kilometers from Rome, and the inability to quickly control the capital in the chaos is equivalent to not being able to control the right to speak.

A number of factors made the coup a definite failure at this time. Now there are only two tasks for the intelligence bureau, the first is to keep Rebecca safe as much as possible; The second is to ensure as much security as possible for the leaders of the National Socialist Party. With these two purposes in mind, Zhang San came to the municipal building. He asked to see Rebecca as the consulate's secretary, and he was soon ushered in.

"Your Excellency. The coup will not succeed. Looking at Rebecca, who was looking at him, Zhang San hesitated. In the end, let's be honest.

"The country won't support us, will it?" Rebecca speaks Chinese, round and jade.

"My lord, after all, this is a family affair in Germany, and it is even more European, and there is no way to support it at home." Zhang San said. "Adults, please avoid it first, there is a way to stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood, first avoid this catastrophe and then try to the future."

"No way!" Rebecca suddenly became stubborn, "I'm not going anywhere." If the revolution doesn't succeed, I'll die here! ”

"But the troops of all stripes were mobilized under the orders of Lubrecht, and the National Socialist Party had only four or five thousand men, and it was all a rabble, and they could not stop the government troops." Zhang San persuaded bitterly. As a person who has come over, China in the past is now Germany, and he is very sympathetic to Rebecca, who has dual nationality and dual identity, but he can't help her, whether it is practical or hindered by the orders from above.

As if confirming Zhang San's assertion, the sound of cannons suddenly sounded in the distance of the city, it was the cannon of the government army, and the cannon rumbled, although the sound was not loud, but it made everyone in the city hall chaotic. Rebecca didn't move, and by this time Strasser and Ludendorff had already gone out to command, and all she had to do was sit in the municipal building to stabilize the morale of the army.

The morale of the army soon became unstable, and as the sound of artillery drew closer, even the stormtroopers who remained on the Place de la Marnli began to stir, and when a biplane suddenly roared over the square, everyone fled in panic.

"Your Highness, please get out of here quickly!" The leader of the stormtroopers, Rom, did not return, but Captain Goering rushed in. He was obviously a little surprised to see Zhang San standing in front of Rebecca, but in a panic, he didn't care about this, and just begged Rebecca to leave quickly.

"What about Gregor and General Ludendorff?" Rebecca asked with a tense face.

"I don't know..., they might have died on the other side of the bridge just now." Goering said anxiously. "Your Highness, please leave here, your faithful servant Herman is willing to protect you to the death."

"Nope! I can't go. Rebecca insisted, "The revolution can't just fail. (To be continued.) )
