My German Empire - Chapter 14:

“I have long admired your name, General Tukhachevsky. I heard that your Excellency is very fluent in German and French. It’s not an official visit this time. I don’t seem to need beautiful Miss Natasha, right?” Having already mastered several foreign languages ​​proficiently, coupled with the learning results of “wilhelm”, he can now be said to be a language master.

Although the general Tukhachevsky is not as exaggerated as he is, he can speak and read fluently in German and French, and his level of Latin is quite high, which can be called outstanding.

And how does wilhelm feel that this beautiful female translator winks at him from time to time? He had heard about the tales of KBG in the original space-time. Although the famous KGB has not yet been born, there is no guarantee that the current Soviet spy agency has not trained similar agents.

Is it possible that his reputation as a playboy has reached this place, and these guys want to beauty trap him?

A strange look flashed in Natasha’s eyes, but she did her best to translate his words into Russian, while Tukhachevsky still spoke a piece of Russian with a smile. “Your Excellency wilhelm thinks too highly of me, I just understand a little, but I can’t talk about mastery.”

Cut, who are you bluffing? I know your life better than you do. It seems that the only reason you are not talking in German is to create opportunities for this beautiful translator? In that case, I will accompany you to the end without using Russian.

Tukhachevsky said after introducing each other one by one. “Your Excellency wilhelm has been troubled during the journey, shall we go to the hotel first?”

wilhelm nodded. “That’s great, but can I pay homage to his Excellency Lenin before?”

Tukhachevsky was visibly stunned when he heard wilhelm’s words. Comrade Lenin is the teacher of the proletarian revolution and the enemy of capitalism. The future emperor of this capitalist country wants to pay homage to Comrade Lenin?

He is really speechless!

He turned his head and looked at the group of officials standing behind him. He was a little depressed about how he was the highest leader on the scene, and he couldn’t find someone to ask if it was appropriate to take him to Lenin’s Tomb.

This awkward atmosphere lasted for a few minutes, and wilhelm spoke first. “If your Excellency General Tukhachevsky feels wrong, then take it as if I didn’t say anything, let’s go to the hotel first.” He wanted to visit Lenin’s Tomb for no special purpose, just because in the original time and space, many articles about Lenin have been included in the textbook. Such as “Studious”, “The Honest Child”, “leader”, “Lenin and the Guards” and “Lenin Participates in Voluntary Labor” and so on.

Although these articles gradually withdrew from the textbook, what impressed him most when he was a child was the text “Six Ink Bottles”. The text tells the story of Lenin kneading bread into an ink bottle in prison, filling it with milk, and writing in the blank spaces of the book. When he was a child, he was very curious about this story. How did bread become an inkwell? Won’t it leak? Therefore, several “ink bottles” have been made by him before.

Thinking of these articles he read when he grew up, he noticed that Lenin had not engaged in hard labor in prison. He could also read books and guide activities outside the prison. He also had a pen to write flyers and brochures. If Lenin’s behavior was discovered, he was only detained for an extended period of time instead of torture such as hanging, handcuffing, or standing in a small cage. What surprised him the most was that Lenin had enough bread and milk to serve as an ink bottle and ink.

But this incident really made him feel deeply about the logical saying , ‘history is written by the victors’ .

So his purpose of going to see Lenin’s tomb is simple, that is, to see this weird Marxist, proletarian revolutionary, politician, theorist, and thinker with his own eyes. After all, maybe he won’t have a chance to visit it again, right?

At this time, Tukhachevsky seemed to finally relax, and said. “Since your Excellency wilhelm wants to pay homage to Comrade Lenin, then…no problem. Let’s go now.”

“Thank you.” wilhelm noticed that Tukhachevsky was speaking German after thanking him, but he didn’t seem to notice it, and turned around and ordered something to his men.

wilhelm put Brausic, Manstein, Rommel, and Guderian all in his car. As soon as the door closed, the atmosphere inside the car was a bit strange. “what’s wrong?”

After the four people looking at him, hesitated for a long time, Brausic suffocated a word. “Uh, Your Highness, are you going to worship Lenin at Lenin’s Tomb?”

It seems that his proposal not only stunned the Soviets, but even his own people were very scared.

wilhelm nodded disapprovingly. “Yes. Maybe this is the last chance to do it. Wouldn’t it be a pity not to see the people who overthrew the Romanov dynasty? If it were not for the help of the Empire ten years ago, our Hohenzollern family might have had the same fate. “Of course, the ending is that King Nicholas II the last tsar was murdered, and William II slipped to the Netherlands.

As for why William II could slip away, and Nicholas would be destroyed?

To put it simply, the beginning of the February Revolution did not move Nicholas. At first he thought that the worst was constitutionalism, but a few months later, when the Bolsheviks came to power, it was too late. After all, it is difficult to escape from a place like Russia (in terms of land area and climate).

Moreover, as soon as Nicholas II abdicated his throne, his family was placed under house arrest in the Alexander Palace in Tsar’s Village. Wilhelm II was different. He was both the Kaiser and the Chief of Prussia, he had more relatives in other European countries. On November 8, 1918, the chaos occupied most areas in western Germany (November Revolution), the next day (November 9), he abdicated and then slipped to his nearest relative, Wilhelmina (Queen of the Netherlands) to take refuge (November 10, 1918) , And then he signed the abdication letter on November 28, 1918, which means that he had already slipped away.

As Manstein’s face changed slightly, he quickly persuaded him. “It won’t happen, Your Highness!”

Several people nearby also quickly expressed their opinions. “Yes, Your Highness.”

“His Royal Highness, you are too worried. It is impossible for a few conspirators to influence the imperial power of Germany.”

wilhelm listened to these people not knowing if they were sincere, he was silent for a while, and suddenly looked at Brausic. “Colonel Brausic. Your full name is Walter von Brausic. You were born in a noble family in 1881?” He almost even said that Brausic died suddenly of a heart attack in a prisoner of war camp in Hamburg in 1948.

“If I remember correctly, your family belongs to the old nobles of Niederschlesien.” This family is a well-deserved old family, which already existed in the Boehm region of Poland in the middle of the 13th century. . However, due to the linguistic mixing in the region at that time, there are many variants of Brauchitsch’s surname, such as: Bruchacz, Bruchits, Brauchits, Prachwitz, Brauchtschicsz and so on.

Brausic straightened his waist subconsciously, wondering why His Royal Highness wilhelm suddenly spoke of his life experience.
