Battle of the Third Reich

Vol 5 Chapter 42: Ribbentrop

"This thing looks like a pile of shit, Ribbentrop." Xu Jun threw a document on his desk with disdain.

"Yes, my head of state, I agree with you that this document is full of bad smells."

The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Third Reich Yohim Von Ribbentrop responded humbly.

----------------------------------

After receiving a ten-day investigation and inquiry from the German Army Special Prison in Berlin, Ribbentrop almost gave up hope of survival.

It is said to be an Army Special Prison, but all the people who interrogated him were members of the Gestapo, and the code is a cold and stiff armed SS like a robot.

Ribbentrop is very clear who is the leader behind this investigation and what will happen to him when he has always claimed himself by Hitler's cronies. Ribbentrop doesn't even bother to think.

The interrogators also seemed to know this very well. The Gestapo had done a great deal of humiliation to the empire in those days. Although they did not use the infamous punishment for him, the mental torture was almost Drive the sensitive former champagne merchant crazy.

At first, Ribbentrop still had a luck of luck. Perhaps he had value for the new head of state, but after several humiliating interrogations, he completely gave up that expectation.

If it were not for his family's concerns that had always supported him, the foreign minister who had claimed himself as "Besmer II" had already found an opportunity to cut himself off, just like Franz. Franz, the Minister of Labor, imprisoned next door. Like Telde, the imperial worker leader hanged himself on the window fence with socks.

After having struggled a lot, Ribbentrop finally accepted his fate. As long as he can get rid of the terrible torture now, he is willing to bear any charges brought by Gestapo.

However, just as he was about to break the bowl, the Gestapo suddenly stopped interrogating him, leaving him aside.

As the days passed, Ribbentrop's spirit almost collapsed.

Although his food level was obviously improved, and the guards showed a kindness to him, Ribbentrop no longer believed that there would be a miracle. He silently waited for the execution captain to come to the door. Read the moment when his shooting sentence was pronounced.

Ribbentrop stood in front of the iron gate with staring **** eyes every day, and looked at the once equally prominent colleagues from the narrow window of the iron gate disappearing into the corridor one by one.

William Frick, the sly interior minister, did not seem to be as brave as he usually claimed to be. In the end, he was almost dragged to the execution ground by two powerful armed SS members.

William Onezelg, Minister of the Imperial Post, this minister who could not sleep without wearing Indian silk pajamas was only wearing a crumpled suit before his death. His face was so pale that he looked like a corpse. Of course, He also went to the execution ground with the help of the armed SS.

In contrast, the great thought leader who awed all Nazis, Hitler’s ideological mentor, and the famous Nazi philosopher His Excellency Alfred Rosenberg performed much better. He raised his head like a martyr. Walking across the corridor with his chest, the prisoners held on both sides of the corridor were amazed.

However, I heard that he played a little abnormal at the last moment before his death. It is really hard to imagine that such a weak person will have such a terrible power at the end of his life. The four strong armed SS members almost failed to turn the fierce Struggling, he **** the stake, and finally solved the problem with a buttstock. He was the most painless dead of all.

The Governor and Chief Executive of Bavaria, Franz Ritter von Ep, suffered terrible torture. His Excellency the Governor, who was in a deep coma, was dragged to the execution ground.

Such tragic things happen every day. . . .

The new head of state carried out his cleansing activities with iron and blood, and few of the Nazi leaders who relied on Hitler to get on stage escaped his liquidation.

Ribbentrop learned from the only words of the guards that the purge was sweeping through the entire German territory like a blaze. There are at least 30 places across the country like the Berlin Army Special Prison, and they are interrogated and executed with German-style efficiency every day, and these "German traitors and enemies" are executed.

Normally, the high-ranking Nazi officials were dragged by heavily armed Army soldiers from homes, streets, and offices into military vehicles like dogs, and then escorted to these special prisons for investigation. The final result was often guilty.

When the family finds the place of detention, they can only see a box of cold ashes, and the highly efficient Gestapo even arranges cremation.

To Ribbentrop's surprise, under this terrible cleansing, the lives and work of German civilians were not disturbed at all.

The arrests and trials involved only the senior leadership of the Nazi Party and the leaders of the SS. It seems to be limited to the party of the Nazi Party. Only a small number of people in the middle and lower government leadership, which are closely related to social life, have been affected.

In the conversation between the guards, an "inside story" that made Ribbentrop feel cold was revealed. This cleaning was obviously premeditated, because all arrest warrants were issued according to a pre-written list. Yes, the Gestapo immediately provided conclusive evidence of the crimes of those people, and the arrested people had no room for refusal.

Even more frightening is that they have even prepared replacements long ago.

All positions vacant due to the master’s arrest have been replaced by corresponding personnel. There is no one-minute interval between them, and the replacement personnel are very familiar with their new positions. The government’s work has not been affected at all.

This really made the savvy foreign minister have to admire the new head of state's deep thinking, which is really terrifying.

German society is operating as usual, government agencies are working normally, and the social order is peaceful and orderly. This unprecedented terrorist cleansing of the Third Reich not only made the German civilians feel scared and panicked, but became their after-meal talk.

The days are still passing by, and as the understanding of this cleaning gradually deepens, Ribbentrop feels more and more terrifying of the new head.

Although he had had contacts with Reinhardt in the past, in his impression that person was just a braggingly smart young boy, impeccable as a nobleman, but as the head of the government, there was really too much lack.

But now it seems that he, like Hitler, was deceived by the gorgeous disguise of the "Apostle of God".

Where is the dude, is a genius conspirator who is far-sighted.

To be honest, this Reinhardt Steide seems to be more suitable than Hitler to take the ducái of the Third Reich Empire, because he is not only more like a soldier than Hitler, but also more like a politician.

Ribbentrop was imprisoned in that prison for twenty-five days, but after the horrific interrogation of the first ten days, no one came to him.

The surrounding cells gradually became empty, and most of the inmates went to where they should go. Ribbentrop squatted lonely on the cold floor of the cell while shaking his fingers and calculating his last days.

But just as the foreign minister nearly collapsed, a mysterious visitor came to the door of his cell.

He knew the person who came, and he could even say that he was very familiar with Russia.

Because he had worked under this man for two years, and finally he used the power of Hitler to steal this man's position.

Baron Constantine von Newright, former foreign minister of the Third Reich.

Ribbentrop didn't know why he saw this person in such a place at this time.

It seems that the former foreign minister has had a good life in recent days, and his well-groomed appearance is full of red light, and there is no trace of the frustration and decadence of the two years ago.

Ribbentrop suddenly had the urge to cry with a headache. After more than thirty years of hard work, he finally fell to the present field. What's wrong with this world?

Looking at the ex-boss with a gentle smile outside the door, Ribbentrop regrets for the first time why he didn’t learn the “foreman” and hanged himself as cheerfully, it seems that this time he couldn’t escape from the ex-boss The end of wanton humiliation.

But what I didn't expect was that New Wright just said "Follow me" lightly, then turned around and left.

Ribbentrop's first thought was that he was still mad at last, so that this absurd illusion appeared.

So when the guards smiled and told him to leave the cell, he grabbed the bed frame of the iron bed and refused to move. In the end, two armed SS members dragged him out of the narrow cell.

Ribbentrop cried and asked the guards to send him back. He thought he was going to be shot, and he had to take a picture of his family when he died.

But the guards did not agree. In their view, this guy's brain must be ill. When someone is released from here, which one does not run faster than the rabbit, and there is such a person who wants to drill back, just a photo, it is big after going back The living people can be seen casually, and what the photos do.

After verifying his body in accordance with the regulations, two armed SSs who were as strong as the bears dragged poor Ribbentrop to the bathroom to wash and strip them, put him on a clean suit and kicked out. Prison gate.

At the gate of the prison, Newright stood by a black, high-class official car waiting for the embarrassed prisoner.

Until then, poor Ribbentrop truly believed that he had been released. The feeling of being alive is really wonderful. This simple truth was only realized after Ribbentrop spent twenty-five days of terrible prison and watching countless people going to death.

Looking at the blue sky, bathed in sunlight, the former Foreign Minister of the Empire knelt on the concrete floor in front of the prison and wept.
