The Third Reich: The Return of the King

Field Marshal Hindenburg revealed little information in the telegram, but the short nine words contained a huge amount of information.

Especially the last four words: take over the army!

What does that mean?

What army should he take over, whether it was the army of the original Kingdom of Bavaria, or the army of Field Marshal Hindenburg himself, it can't be said that he should take over the army of the whole country, right?

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is still possible, because the old marshal sent a telegram at this time, which means that the old marshal will definitely make a move, and once he makes a move, he will not continue to stay in Mu Nihei, but will go to Bailin!

Marshal Hindenburg went to Bolin, the army must be arranged, and at this time the other party asked him to go back and take over the army, which has to lead people to reverie!

However, Mainz didn't have so much time to guess here, Mu Nihei was not far from Odily, and after confirming the authenticity of the telegram, Mainz immediately made an explanation.

"Moder, you stay here with Kesselring, I will report your military merits when I go back, it is estimated that you should be able to be promoted to the rank of major or even lieutenant colonel, after I leave, you should be careful to beware of the Italians and Ronnies in the south!"

Ferdinand I, the Emperor of Rhonija, was still in Vino at this time, and representatives of Ronnie were also arriving from the capital of Rhonija to negotiate with the Germans for the redemption of the captured 200,000 troops and the king!

The negotiations between the two sides have been going on for some time, and now it is almost the end, and since they are ready to leave, they must deal with this matter before leaving!

"Yes, General, the two of us promise not to let the Iteri and Ronnie take advantage of it!"

Moder and Kesselring glanced at each other, and the joy on their faces was a little irrepressible.

In just over two months, the two of them have been promoted from lieutenant to major and possibly even to lieutenant colonel, a speed that can be said to be appalling even in the last world war!

Rockets hadn't been born yet in this era, so they didn't know about it, otherwise they would definitely use the word rocket-like ascension to describe their promotion speed!

"Guderian and Himmler, you two go back and pack up, and prepare to return to Munihei with me!"

"Yes, General!"

Although the two of them were a little envious of Caissellin and Moder, they themselves performed well in this battle, and they will definitely be rewarded and promoted when they go back.

"Goering, Dietrich, you two stay, and the others go about their own business!"

After some explanations, Mainz and Dietrich stayed, and they looked at each other, both of them were a little curious, they knew that General Mainz probably had something to give to them, so they couldn't help but be a little excited.

Being left alone by General Mainz shows that they are very high in the hearts of generals!

"Dietrich, we captured a lot of horses in this battle, I hope you can use these horses to secretly form a cavalry, the scale does not need to be very large, as long as one brigade is enough, understand?"

Mainz has no good impression of cavalry, this kind of army has fallen behind in modern warfare, but he still wants to form such a force, the purpose is not to hope that the cavalry can play well in future wars, but to hope that this army can serve as a target to attract the attention of the Entente, so as to hide his true intention: secretly form an armored force belonging to the German army!

Of course, it's better to hide this kind of thing from Dietrich, after all, if you tell him, he may be passive and will not show full enthusiasm to do this, which may make spies in Britain and France and other countries see the flaw, in order to make up for this loophole and reduce the risk of being discovered, Mainz needs Dietrich to be the highest enthusiasm for the task he is about to perform!

"Yes, General, I promise to complete the mission!"

Sure enough, after hearing Major General Mainz's arrangements for him, Dietrich was suddenly very excited.

You must know that the cavalry was a noble army during the First World War, and this army inherited from the Middle Ages has always been the most elite and valuable army of various countries.

Major General Mainz entrusted such an important task to himself, which was his absolute trust and importance, so Dietrich secretly swore in his heart that he must redouble his efforts and never live up to Major General Mainz's expectations!

Seeing the scrappy look in Dietrich's eyes, Mainz was immediately relieved.

Dietrich is a cavalryman, so let him carry out this task to the best of his ability!

"Goering, your mission is the same as Dietrich's, I want you to secretly form our own air force in Odili!"

The Treaty of Versailles restricted the military development of the German army, and the new arms that appeared in World War I, such as tanks, armored vehicles, and the air force, were not allowed to be produced and equipped by the German army, and the new arms of the air force were directly canceled.

But Mainz knows very well in his heart what a huge role the air force will play in future wars, whether it is a naval battle at sea or a land battle on land, the air force is the protagonist who can decide the outcome of the war!

So even if the Entente explicitly forbade the Germans to have their own air force, Mainz would have tried every means to develop its own air force!

"General, what to do, I'm afraid that if you don't do it well, it will alarm the people of the Entente!"

Hearing Mainz's words, Goering was both excited and apprehensive, he was excited that General Mainz had entrusted him with such an important task, and he was deeply moved by this trust, but he was worried that his lack of ability would ruin the good things of the major general, so Goering raised his own question anxiously.

"Well, I'll set up a car repair shop in Bavaria!"

Mainz nodded, Goering's performance made him feel a lot more relieved, if Goering, like Dietrich just now, accepted the task and bragged that he would promise to complete the task, then Mainz would still be worried.

The formation of an air force was much more complicated than the formation of cavalry, and the Entente did not prohibit the Germans from developing cavalry, but they explicitly forbade the Germans from developing an air force, which made Goering's work difficult to carry out and exposed if he was not careful.

If this kind of thing is exposed, it will definitely have a huge impact on the German army, so Mainz thought in his heart whether Goering should be retired from active service and turn his identity into a civilian, so that they can study their own fighters in the name of civilian aircraft!

"A garage?"

Goering was stunned, what does a car repair shop have to do with airplanes?

"Hehe, you'll know later, but don't worry, I've prepared the talents for aircraft design and manufacturing for you, and what you have to do now is to seize the time to contact those old subordinates who fought with you before, and gather them, we need to train an air force from scratch, this task is very difficult, Captain Goering, are you ready?"
