Chapter 646 The Destruction of Demons (2)
But Hitler did not give up.On the second day of his birthday, he ordered SS General Steiner to "launch a full-scale counter-offensive to the Chinese army in the southern suburbs of Berlin. All soldiers in the Berlin area, including ground troops in the air force, are all put into battle."

"All the commanders who stand still," Hitler shouted to General Kohler, who remained in Berlin to command the air force, "will be executed within five hours, and you yourself must take your head to ensure that the last man will also go into battle."

On the day the order was issued, Hitler had been anxiously awaiting news of Steiner's counteroffensive.But the news is that Steiner did not counterattack, he did not do it at all. **Is there still power to counterattack?They have reached the present, and they can't even deal with a Chinese tank.

From the morning until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Hitler was on the phone, trying to understand the situation of Steiner's counteroffensive from various command posts, but no one knew, not even Steiner's shadow was found, let alone Steiner's shadow. Not to mention his troops.Hitler couldn't bear to hear such news.He screamed: "Everyone has betrayed me, there is nothing but betrayal, lies, corruption and cowardice. It's all over! Well, I will stay in Berlin and I will personally defend the third The capital of the empire. Whoever wants to go can go. I am willing to die here."

Hitler then called in Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda, who invited him, his wife, and six children to move from their bombed-out mansion in Wilhelmstrasse Gardens to the Führer's basement.He knew that at least this fanatical and loyal follower and his family were willing to stick with him to the end.Then, he went through the papers, picked out what he thought should be destroyed, and handed them to the adjutant to take them up in the garden to be burned.

In the evening he called Keitel and Yordle and ordered them to go south to command the remnants of the army.He himself will live and die with Berlin. April 4 was a very difficult day in the underground bomb shelter. The vanguard of the Western Expeditionary Army was only a few streets away from the German Chancellery. They gradually advanced towards the Chancellery from the east, north and west through the adjacent Berlin Zoo.At this time, Hitler was hearing from the radio that the BBC said that Himmler was negotiating with the Chinese side to surrender. He was furious like a madman: "A traitor can never succeed me as the head of state!" He said to the people around him , you must make every effort not to let my power fall into the hands of Himmler. "

After saying this, Hitler brought Himmler's confidant, the liaison officer Fegelein, who was born as a groom, to the confinement room, interrogated Himmler's "treason" situation severely, and finally ordered the SS to arrest Feigelein. Glein was dragged to the garden of the Chancellery and shot on the spot.

"Poor Adolf," Eva cried to Goebbels' wife, "everyone has abandoned him, betrayed him."

After Fegelein was shot, Minister of War Preparations and Production Speer came to the bunker of the Chancellery to bid farewell to him in order to show his loyalty to the Führer.Speer found that the Führer's energy seemed to have been exhausted, leaving only a walking corpse, his clothes were sloppy, his face was swollen, his eyes were dull, and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot; his left hand trembled like an old man suffering from a stroke.In just a few weeks, the Führer appeared to have aged decades.

"Speer, what's your opinion? Do you think I should stay in Berlin or go to Berchtesgaden? General Jodl told me that the commander of the Chinese army only gave ** 24 hours and now I have to make a final decision." Decide."

"My Fuehrer, in my opinion, you will live forever in the hearts of the German people if you ended your life in Berlin and not in your villa."

Hitler nodded in agreement: "You are right, I am also determined to stay in Berlin, but I will not personally participate in the battle with the Chinese army. I do not want to be captured by the Chinese. I do not want to give the enemy any chance to crush me I have ordered my body to be cremated. Eva expressed her willingness to live and die with me.” Finally Hitler added: “Speer, believe me, it is easy for me to end my life. In an instant, I am free from everything, from all pain."

In the early morning of April 4, the sky in Berlin was covered by haze, and Hitler officially married Eva in the underground bunker of the Chancellery.Before, he always believed that marriage would prevent him from devoting all his energy to his career, leading his country to dominate the world.Now that there was nothing left for him to lead, and his life was over, he was free to spend a few hours in dewy couple with Eva.

Loyal Goebbels called a member of parliament and presided over the marriage ceremony in a small conference room in the underground bomb shelter.Hitler said to Goebbels: "Because of the war, everything in this wedding is kept simple."

In this way, amidst the rumble of guns and guns outside the Prime Minister's Office, the bride and groom formally took an oath in the dim bunker: "We are pure Aryan race."

"We don't have any genetic conditions."

"We will remain loyal, kind, patient and loving to each other until the end of our lives"

When he was about to die, the dictator still insisted on observing the formality of the wedding ceremony. Propaganda Minister Goebbels, as a witness, also signed the marriage certificate.

After the brief ceremony, a spooky wedding breakfast was set up in the Führer's private room.There is champagne, white water and German beer on the table.The remaining generals, the Goebbels, and his secretaries were all invited to the Fuehrer's wedding banquet.

Hitler seemed to be a gracious host, talking enthusiastically to every invited guest, and they gathered together to look back on the golden age of the past.He also spoke of being best man at Goebbels' wedding.Even then, the bridegroom was in the old habit of talking endlessly, reviewing the various periods of his dramatic life.

"It's all over now! Death is a relief for me, because my longest-standing friends and supporters have betrayed me. The national socialism I promoted and the expansionist aggression that dominated the world have completely failed." Hitler used Said in the tone of a loser who has never been there before.

Before the wedding was over, Hitler found a female secretary in the next room and began to dictate his will.

"More than 10 years have passed since I voluntarily participated in the First World War, which was imposed on the Empire. During these 10 years, all my thoughts, deeds and life have been filled with love and loyalty to my people. They give I have the strength to make the most difficult decisions, and sometimes it is excruciatingly painful to make them. It is a lie to say that I or any German wants to start a second world war. The only ones who want war and are determined to start war are those who claim to be themselves A country where justice is incarnate. How many years will pass, how many centuries will pass, and from the ruins of our cities and monuments will arise hatred against those who committed the crimes, the Jews, the Socialists, and the dictators of the East."

"The six-year war, no matter how much it has been lost, must be a thing of the past, just like the most glorious and heroic struggle for the existence of the nation. I cannot use Berlin as the price of sacrifice. Because in the face of the enemy's continued attacks in this direction Attack, our strength is really small, and our resistance will eventually be broken by those oriental butchers. I want to link my fate with the fate of thousands of people who are still in this city I will not fall into the hands of the Jews, who are about to manifest new atrocities, and let them go into hysteria. Therefore, I have decided to stay in Berlin and die voluntarily after having faithfully fulfilled my duty to the people. I will die with joy. I am conscious of the incomparable feats and achievements of our peasants and workers, of the unrivaled support in the history of our youth, and that wherever possible they will continue to fight against the enemies of the Fatherland, and I hope that after my death , my spirit will live among them and be with them forever."

Finally Hitler said: "May they be cruel, but always just. May fear never rule their actions and may the honor of the nation stand above all else in their hearts. Finally, may they at last understand that in order to complete our founding... **National tasks that will take hundreds of years and require everyone to always place the common good above the individual. I call on all Germans, all party members, women and soldiers of the German Armed Forces to pledge their allegiance to the new and Its President. In addition, I order the relentless struggle of the nation and the people against the enemy to the end. Berlin, April 1907, 4 at 29 o'clock. Testator: Hitler. Witnesses: Goebbels, Burgdorf , Bowman, Krebs."

After confessing these, Hitler solemnly signed the will.After dictating the will, Hitler was exhausted and went back to sleep.

At this time, it was dawn, and the dawn light shone on every corner of Berlin, and the whole city was shrouded in thick smoke.

Houses within range of the Chinese artillery were collapsing and burning.Not far from William Street and the Chancellery!

"The key to ordering the forward troops to slow down is to surround the Chancellery. What happened in the 'Wolf's Lair' last time must not happen. This time, I don't believe that Hitler still has a way to escape!" ordered loudly.

"Commander, what if Hitler committed suicide?" Bai Chongxi suddenly asked an unexpected question.

"That can only be left to him. The emperor did not order Hitler to be captured alive, but I don't believe that the leader of the Communist Party dared to commit suicide. I have never heard of a leader of a country who would risk his life." He firmly believed in his own judgment. .

When Hitler rested, Goebbels made up his mind to follow the example of the Führer and die for the country.In fact, he had already handed over his fate to Hitler.He has been the movement's leading seer and propagandist, and is second only to Hitler in creating political myths.In order for these myths to be passed on, not only the head of state should die heroically, but as the most loyal follower of the head of state, the only party leader who has not betrayed the head of state must also die a heroic death.
