After Akado spoke, he fell into deep thought. No one else dared to speak, and the silence in the room was so thick it felt like it could kill. Finally, Akado broke the terrifying atmosphere. He waved his hand and said softly, "All of you, leave. I'm tired." Everyone had no choice but to turn and walk out. Just as they reached the door, Akado seemed to remember something and commanded, "Gascoigne, you stay. I have something for you to do. The rest of you may go." Gascoigne walked back to Akado's desk.…-

"Extra! Extra! Reichstag Building set on fire last night! Suspect captured by police! Come and read all about it!" a newsboy shouted on the street, waving the newspaper in his hand. Not far away, faint smoke still rose from the burned-out shell of the Reichstag Building. Its once greyish-white facade was now scarred with black marks, its windows were shattered, and its main doors hung half-open. Just days ago, this building was one of the most powerful places in Germany; now, it showed no trace of its…

Advanced chapter at patreon.com/caleredhair This new engine was nothing short of a revolutionary invention in military technology. It allowed the ME-109 to reach a super speed of 570 km/h, a velocity that could leave any active service fighter in the dust and endowed the ME-109 with an unparalleled rate of climb. For this reason, the Commander-in-Chief of the German Air Force, Kesselring, called his new weapon the "King of the Climb." No one considered his words an exaggeration; on the contrary, Colonel…

Advanced chapter at patreon.com/caleredhair "Look at those Germans. They're also in an economic crisis, but at least they have some potatoes and vegetable leaves to eat. What about us? We work all day with empty stomachs," a worker said, sitting by a cold machine and sighing. He nudged a large iron tong lying on the ground back and forth with the tip of his foot. "Are you sure?" a worker next to him sneered. "We haven't worked for several days! Working with empty stomachs? If there were work to…

Although Akado's speech in the Reichstag was a resounding success and interpreted by the outside world as "the German government holding its head high again," discussing border issues now, with the aftershocks of the economic crisis yet to fade, was an unwise choice. At the very least, Akado knew that the cards in his hand were not yet all in place. But what no one knew was that after returning to his office, Akado swept everything from his desk onto the carpet. He flew into a rage in his private room,…

Inside the Presidential Palace, Hindenburg stared at Akado and finally spoke, "I cannot sign and pass this act of yours. If you take it to the Parliament, the result will be the same! I know you are doing many things for this country, and I also know that many people are obstructing you. But for you to rely on such a document to strike down all your opponents—this does not conform to the laws of this country." Akado's fingers tapped on the desk, very rhythmically. Suddenly, his fingers stopped. "Mr.…

The silent night exuded a strange eeriness. The bustling street was now empty of pedestrians. In a deep alley, a black shadow moved slowly and, in the blink of an eye, slipped into the doorway of a nearby building. The black-clad shadow walked lightly up the stairs. The slightly aged wooden staircase did not make a single sound, making the shadow seem even more like a phantom. The shadow gradually approached a large door, crouched down in front of it, and after a few soft clicks, the door was pushed open…

Inside the solemn Presidential Palace, Akado stood before Hindenburg. Behind him were his loyal subordinates. Today they were the victors, or rather, the incomplete victors. Behind these men was a crowd of reporters. The flashes of cameras flickered nonstop, turning the entire President's office into a glittering golden hall. Hindenburg, trembling, completed the inauguration ceremony for the new German Chancellor with Akado. According to tradition, he had to attend and preside over this ceremony. "Former…

Advanced chapter at patreon.com/caleredhair Schleicher stood in the corridor of the German Reichswehr headquarters, clutching his leather briefcase. He was the assistant to the Minister of Defense and also one of the more influential figures in the German military. Almost no Germans had heard the name Schleicher, but he was indeed a big shot. It had to be said that this Schleicher did indeed have a strong background. He was a descendant of the great noble Brandenburg family. In 1900, he had…
