The Rise of the Third Reich

Chapter 82 Ultimatum

"Corporal, what is your name and where are you from?"

In a secluded classroom at the University of Munich, a Stasi trainee code-named "Corporal" was accepting questions from Second Lieutenant Rosenberg code-named "Student".

"Sir, my real name is Adolf Hitler. I am from Braunau, Austria."

It turned out to be Adolf Hitler! When Hessmann was first reborn, he wanted to get familiar with the Nazi head of Germany, but later he was afraid that he would be implicated and put on the gallows. Now he has become a cooperating informant of the Stasi agency!

But this was indeed not something Hessmann did deliberately - he did not want to disturb Mr. Hitler's life trajectory. Because he has found it difficult to devote himself to politics. And even if he goes into politics himself, he may not have the same achievements as Hitler. Not only because Hitler was a genius demagogue and politician, but also because Hessmann’s status as a Junker elite and a millionaire would create a great distance between him and the suffering German working people.

So after thinking about it again and again, Hessmann felt that it was better to let Hitler "grow barbarically" for a while.

However, he did not expect that a recommendation letter from the Political Department of the General Staff actually made Hitler become a Stasi member without Hessmann's knowledge. This was actually Hessman's own butterfly effect, because the Military Intelligence Office and the Hitler After the unification of Taxi, it has the function of a secret police, and the Political Department of the General Staff will naturally not set up an organization to monitor political parties. So after the scouts from Hitler's Political Division completed the elimination of "Spartacists" in the army, they were packaged and sent to the Intelligence Division.

"Oh, you're not German?" Alfred Rosenberg nodded. Historically, he joined the Nazi Party a few months earlier than Hitler. But in this time and space, restricted by the military non-partisanship, he could only stay outside the political party like Hersman.

"No, not yet," Adolf Hitler replied. "But I will become a German citizen!"

"Have you ever considered returning to Austria to enter politics?" Alfred Rosenberg asked again.

The Stasi organization pursued "Greater Germanism" and "National Socialism". The former is to unite all Germans, establish a Greater German Empire, and then use this unified and powerful Germany to lead Europe.

Driven by this idea, the Stasi certainly wanted to extend its tentacles to Austria, a country composed of Germans.

"No!" Hitler said very firmly, "I want to stay in Germany! Because it is Germany, not Austria, that can afford the future of the German nation."

Alfred Rosenberg frowned. He felt that the "corporal" in front of him was a very determined person.

Rosenberg said: "Well, you can stay in Germany." He glanced at Miss Doctor, who immediately said: "Corporal, from now on, you accept the direct leadership of this gentleman. His code name is' College Students'."

"Yes, Miss Doctor." Adolf Hitler replied.

Miss Doctor handed Rosenberg an envelope containing Hitler's information and his handwritten application and affidavit (applying to join the Stasi agency, swearing to obey the agency and the interests of the greater German state). Then he stood up and walked out of the classroom quickly, leaving Hitler and Rosenberg in the classroom.

From now on, Adolf Hitler would maintain a single line of communication with Rosenberg. The task Rosenberg was going to give him was not complicated, which was to break into a small party called the German Workers' Party and strive to become one of the party's leaders.

On May 20, 1919, Hersmann did not know that Hitler was already a "comrade" of the Stasi. At this time, his thoughts were not on the "right-wing Labor Party" such as the German Workers' Party. He was at the Senice Spa in Budapest with the leader of the Hungarian Bolshevik Party, Kun Béla, the Hungarian People's Commissar of Defense Joseph Bogany, the Deputy People's Commissar of Defense Sameri Tibor and Santo Béla, as well as Borodin, General Representative of the Third International in Hungary, and others held talks.

Borodin and Hessmann looked at each other and said the plan they had discussed long ago: "I think Hungary should not negotiate with the Allies on the issue of territorial integrity. Such negotiations are harmful and unhelpful and should be suspended in time."

"Suspension of negotiations means all-out war!" Kun Bella said, "Now there are only Romanians, Czechs, Serbs and a small number of French. If it turns into all-out war..."

"Comrade Bella, why do you think the Allies came to Hungary?" Borodin looked at Kun Bella, "You don't really think they came to Hungary to fulfill the Fourteen Points of Peace Conditions, do you?"

"Of course not..." Kun Bella said hesitantly. "However, the Slovaks, Romanians, and Croats in Greater Hungary all have demands for independence, and territorial adjustment is inevitable."

"Everyone knows that Slovakia, Transylvania and Croatia cannot be independent," Borodin said. "Slovakia will merge with the Czech Republic, Transylvania will belong to Romania, and Croatia will belong to Serbia. What kind of thing is this? National self-determination? If the Hungarian Bolsheviks really want to help these peoples achieve independence, they should unite them instead of handing them over to their enemies.”

Hessmann nodded aside. Borodin's view was the same as his. Kun. Bella's concession policy actually isolated the Hungarians.

"Then how do we unite them?" Kun Bella asked.

"How we unite Ukrainians, Belarusians and the MSL in Central Asia, you unite Slovaks, Croats and Transylvanians."

Kun Bella looked at Borodin, who said: "We are practicing near-independent autonomy... We plan to establish a federated country composed of the Lukan Autonomous Republic in the future."

This country is the Soviet Union! It has not been established yet, but it is already brewing, and it is not a secret that cannot be revealed.

Borodin said: "Comrade Béla and Comrade Lenin believe that it is best for Hungary to declare the same national policy as Soviet Russia and form a Hungarian Socialist Union Republic. At the same time, immediately suspend negotiations with the Entente... Hungary currently has sufficient weapons, As long as ammunition, food and soldiers can boost morale, there is no reason why we can’t fight!”

“Soviet Union Republic…Hungarians are crazy!”

"This is all the Germans' mischief. Intelligence shows that the Germans transported large amounts of coal, grain and ammunition to Hungary through Austria. This is a blatant violation of the Compiègne Forest Agreement! We should restart the war against Germany and give Their hardest lesson!”

"And Soviet Russia! They are in the same group as the Hungarian Bolsheviks! And now, Soviet Russia and Germany are very likely to be colluding... This is a threat to all mankind!"

France, Palace of Versailles. This morning, the leaders of Britain, the United States and France arrived in a furious manner - now that the Italian and Japanese delegations have also been excluded, the Paris Peace Conference was a closed-door meeting between Britain, the United States and France - and then they started to curse.

It turns out that the Council of People's Commissars of the Hungarian Soviet Republic issued a statement last night: it has suspended negotiations with the Allied Powers and will invite Croatia, Slovakia, and Transylvania to form the Hungarian Socialist Union Republic!

After finishing their angry scolding, the leaders and diplomats of the three countries sat down around the conference table to discuss countermeasures. Then of course there was an argument, and French Prime Minister Clemenceau continued to point the finger at Germany. In short, everything was Germany's fault! It was the Germans who failed to fulfill the armistice agreement - although the "Armistice Agreement of Compiegne" did not include any clauses with Hungary at all.

Woodrow Wilson reminded Britain and France to pay attention to the possible alliance between Soviet Russia and Germany. If Hungary is included, the Allies are almost faced with another world war.

"Then what should we do? Are we going to let the Germans, Hungarians and Soviet Russia ignore the authority of the Allied Powers?" Lloyd George asked the members of the French and American delegations present in a somewhat anxious tone.

"Ultimatum!" Woodrow Wilson said impatiently. "It's already June 1919... we've been talking for five months. This is really nonsense! There must be an end. To the Hungarians and Germans Give us an ultimatum! They must meet our demands before June 21, otherwise the war will continue!”
