Chapter 6: The Hersman Report


"Ludwig, those words you said to Lenin are really not the judgment of the Grand General Staff" "No, I'm sorry, that's not the judgment of the Great General Staff" "Ludwig, can I say that you are going too far, if those words are known to the people in the Great General Staff, you may have to go to the most dangerous battlefield on the Western Front to become a sergeant" "Oscar, you want to report to your superiors, oh God, how can you do that" "Chloe, don't distract what Ludwig and Lenin said, it's quite harmful" "Maybe it's really harmful" "That's impossible, absolutely impossible" After dinner at Lenin's quarters, Hersmann, Ettel and Heinsberg left Tyujiwiezer and followed the mountain path in the moonlight to Heinsberg's villa.

On the way, an argument broke out among the three.

Etel counted Hersman down and threatened to make a small report to the Foreign Office.

Hersmann, on the other hand, insisted that his judgment was completely correct, of course, and that later history would prove it.

Heinsberg, on the other hand, spoke for Hersmann with all his might.

In the end, Ettel and Heinsberg were arguing over each other, and Hersmann became a bystander.

Watching people quarrel seemed like a good after-dinner pastime, and the road down the mountain was not lonely for Hersman.

By the time we got back to the villa, it was already completely dark.

Hersman looked at his watch, and it was almost eleven o'clock in the middle of the night.

But he did not feel the slightest sleep, he was now in a state of euphoria, and tonight he had dinner with Comrade Lenin, and with the reflections of the previous days, he had now vaguely found a way away from the gallows As long as the Third Reich did not fight the Soviet Union to the death, he could at least mix with the older generation of National Socialist revolutionaries and spend his old age in Switzerland or somewhere in Berchtesgaden.

And the Soviet Union, the evil empire second only to fascist Germany, will not disintegrate tragically at the end of 1991, in fact, the relationship between the Soviet Reich and fascist Germany before June 22, 1941 is beneficial to both sides.

The collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 was arguably the inevitable result of the fall of the Third Reich in 1945.

It is not easy to confront the entire capitalist world with the economic aggregates of the Soviet Union and a few small Eastern European countries.

And if the Third Reich remains, the capitalist camp will be split into two large parts, and Germany and the United States, which own most of Europe, will be almost evenly matched.

For the Soviet Union, life was naturally much better, and this was the real "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

However, it is still very difficult for Hersman's wishful thinking to be realized.

It was not only Comrade Lenin and his revolutionary comrades-in-arms who had great ambitions and were bent on the liberation of all mankind.

And here in Germany there are also people who hate Russia and the Soviet Union.

For example, the mustachioed Führer Adolf.

Hitler It seems that he still has to work hard to perform, and if he can be favored by big names like Ludendorff and Hindenburg, he may have more room to operate Hersmann touched his neck, and without saying goodnight to Ettel and Heinsberg, he went straight to his bedroom.

But instead of sleeping, he slumped down on a desk in his bedroom and began to draft a report to the Great General Staff, which came to be known as the "Almost Changing the Course of the First World War" on Lenin and the Bolsheviks, also known as the Hersmann Report.

"Chloe, good morning" After an all-nighter halt, Hersman yawned down the stairs to the hall with a folder in his arms, and saw Chloe, wearing a blue sweater and a gray skirt, standing at a long table preparing breakfast with an elderly maid.

Seeing a tired Hirschman, her eyes widened.

"Oh my God, Ludwig, haven't you slept all night?"

"Yes, I'm preparing a report to the Great General Staff, and I've already written more than half of it."

"About Lenin" "About how to win the war."

"Oh, that's amazing, you're going to be a major for it."

Chloe took a few steps, pulled out a chair, and smiled sweetly at Hersman.

"Sit down, get some food, and get some sleep, I think we're going to be here for a long time, and you've got time."

"Thank you."

Hersman thanked him, sat down, placed the folder on the table in front of him, and took a sip of a glass of milk.

"Chloe, we won't be staying in Tyujivitze for a long time, maybe sooner in April, we'll be in Russia, with Lenin" Hersmann remembers that Lenin had published a April Theses after the February Revolution, when he had already returned to Russia.

"April, how is it possible to go to Russia?"

Etter appeared in the hall with a red face, and when he heard Hersmann's speech, he immediately retorted.

"Do you know how complicated it is to send Lenin back to Russia, and now Lenin has not promised anything, and he wants to get a large amount of gold marks."

"That's the thinking of your diplomats, and the military and His Majesty the Emperor don't have that much patience."

"Last month we resumed unrestricted submarine warfare, which shows that the Great General Staff is already frightened by the indefinite drag on the war and wants to achieve a decent peace as soon as possible," Hersman said.

The Russian Revolution gave us a God-given opportunity, and the Great General Staff would certainly do its best to seize it, and if contacts with the Russian Provisional Government were inconclusive, Lenin would immediately leave for his homeland. ” He patted the folder on the table, "Oscar, this is a document I drafted to make full use of Russian resources to achieve victory, you can also take a look at it." ” "Take advantage of Russian resources" Etter pulled up a chair, sat down beside Hersman, then took the folder, opened it and looked at it.

Although Hersmann had little hope of winning the First World War or a decent peace.

But in order to attract the attention of the two great men, Hindenburg and Ludendorff, he still had to show the Second German Reich a clear path that seemed to be okay.

"Full support for the Bolsheviks, so that they could establish a stable rule in the shortest possible time, was a necessary condition for the Reich to obtain from Russia all the resources necessary to sustain the war."

Ettel whispered out one of the papers, then looked up at Hersmann, "Ludwig, what do you mean by full force?"

"All means, including military," said Hirschman, "could provide the Bolsheviks with weapons and military advisers, and send troops directly if necessary, for I expected a long and arduous war on the Western Front."

In order to maintain morale at the front and in the rear, we need a lot of things, the most important of which is food.

If we want Russian food, we can't let Russia fall into prolonged turmoil.

At least help the Bolsheviks stabilize the situation before the winter wheat of 1917 began to be planted, so that we could have enough food supplies for the summer of 1918.

With food, backed by a friendly Russia, we will be able to sustain the war on the Western Front.

Especially in the event that the United States is likely to join" "Isn't it a complete offensive to crush France before the American army arrives in Europe?"

Hersman said in a heavy tone, "No, it can't be done, because the war is, in a way, fought on hope.

As long as the hope of victory is big enough, France will hold out.

And once the United States enters the war, the French will think that they will win, so they will not give in, no matter how difficult it is.

Therefore, in the case of the United States entering the war, we should choose to rely on Russia to fight a protracted war and give the enemy maximum damage with a strong defense, so that it is possible to seek a decent peace.

If the United States had not entered the war, we would have been able to make the French desperate with a fierce offensive. ” "There seems to be some truth," Ettel shook his head, "it's just too pessimistic" Hersmann smacked his lips and stared at Etter, "Oscar, you are a veteran diplomat, and you have been in contact with Lenin for another ten years.

I hope that you can write an analysis of Lenin and the Bolsheviks, preferably able to predict that they will soon take power in Petersburg" "How quickly will they take power" "October or November, after the defeat of the Russian army on the front."

Ettel hesitated, "Ludwig, do you think the Eastern Front will win a big victory soon, but I heard that the Russians are quite capable of fighting. ” Hersman sneered: "Soon there will be a great victory, because the Bolsheviks will break up the army left by the tsar" t1706231537:
