The second volume is full of glory and splendor in the capital, and the spirit is full of vitality in the foggy city. Chapter 275: Card Making (Part 1)
Subtitle of this chapter: He is not a clown but the protagonist!
Munich, the Athens of the Alps and the Isar River.
Of course, just as the "Holy Roman Empire" has nothing to do with "Holy", "Roman" and "Empire", Munich actually has nothing to do .
The city got this nickname because it was the center of the German Renaissance in the 16th century.
After the end of the last European war, it became the center of political turmoil in Germany.
On April 13, 1919, the Bavarian Soviet Republic was proclaimed in Munich.
"Fortunately", on May 3 of the same year, the revolutionary fire was extinguished by the "Free Corps".
To explain, the "Free Corps" was actually a volunteer army composed of veterans of World War I. At that time, Germany established a large number of volunteer corps, with more than 120 corps and more than 400,000 soldiers at its peak. The main force of the Karp Lüttwitz coup was such a volunteer army..
Curiously, Munich has since become a hotbed of right-wing political movements.
As a time traveler, our Master Yuan certainly knew that in two years this city called "Athens" would stage a "revolution" that was completely contrary to the spirit of Athens - the Beer Hall Putsch.
Although in 1923, this "revolution" was almost a farce in people's eyes, the protagonist of this farce was destined to once again allow the black eagle of Germany to spread its wings, and this time the shadow under the eagle's wings would cover the whole of Europe.
And like the "Hanged Man", 1921 was also a very critical year for the man destined to become "His Highness the Temperance".
On July 29 of that year, the National Socialist German Workers' Party held a special congress, at which "Moderation" officially became the party chairman.
Furthermore, the party elite fully agreed that all the traditions of the German Workers' Party were to be thrown out to the wind, as a new order could not be built on the old foundations. Parliamentary debate and democratic order were no longer permitted within the party. From then on, they would adhere strictly to the "Führer principle."
Therefore, to be associated with "moderation" now is truly a timely help and a wise eye for talent.
It has to be said that Yuan Yanshu felt that the time point when he traveled through time was too "coincidental". Many "small events" that seemed unremarkable at the time but would have a profound impact on history happened in the time period he was currently in.
Oh, it would be even better if I could catch up with the conference that also takes place in July...
"You're screwed! Pika Pika."
"Master Ball, can't I even think about it?"
"Host, you're about to board a luxury cruise ship that only the bourgeoisie can ride, so forget about that red boat that only the proletariat can ride."
Our Master Yuan sighed in his heart. What Master Ball said made sense.
So he began to pay attention to the images provided by the two "agents".
After seeing this, he couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you go to the beer hall and come to the circus?"
"Oh my god, that person is giving a speech here today." The "Golden Red Witch" in a hooded cloak answered in her heart.
Yuan Yan quickly flipped through the historical materials of Master Ball and found that history had undergone some subtle changes.
In the original timeline, there was indeed such a "Circus Speech" in February 1921, in which Temperance delivered an important speech at a circus called "Crown".
This place was chosen because the circus could accommodate a full 6,000 spectators, and the manager was a Party member who, it is said, provided the venue free of charge to the Temperance Movement.
For some reason, on this timeline, the conference wasn't held until June 5th.
As soon as she entered the theater, Ms. Fate couldn't help but let out a small exclamation: "Hey, why are there so few people?"
Around 7 o'clock, His Highness Temperance received a frustrating call from the Crown Circus: there were very few listeners in the hall.
Lord Fool said confidently, "An, don't worry. There will be more people soon."
After 10 minutes, the situation improved slightly.
Lord Justice said in a complicated tone, "Neo, you're right again!"
By 7:45, three-quarters of the seats in the hall were occupied and there was a long queue at the theater entrance.
The head of the SCP Foundation laughed and said , "Yuri, when have I ever missed it?"
At 8:15, the man appeared on the stage...
At this moment, he was "full of joy" because "the hall was packed with thousands of people. It was like a huge bomb lying in front of me."
He was wearing a cheap suit that didn't fit him well and was poorly tailored. In public, his expression was a little stiff, his movements were a little funny, and of course, there was that trademark moustache.
All this made him look like a model displayed in the dusty window of a photo studio in the Bavarian countryside.
"Promise and Destruction..."
However, when he uttered the first word, the man suddenly transformed into the Pied Piper in German folklore.
Legend has it that a village was severely plagued by rats. When the villagers were at their wits' end, a wandering musician in colorful clothes came.
He said he had a way to drive away the rats, and the villagers happily reached an agreement with him, offering him a reward as long as he drove away the rats.
The Pied Pied Piper played his magic flute, and the mice ran out of their burrows and followed him towards the rushing river.
But the villagers later broke their promise, and the pied piper played the magic flute again. This time, all the children in the village followed him into the dense black forest...
So many legends about Inchusiting, so much history about Inchusiting.
Half an hour into his speech, he had already connected with the audience and knew that they belonged to him. "Spontaneous bursts of applause" interrupted the man's speech from time to time.
Afterward, the venue fell silent, a solemn silence. "In this huge crowd, the only thing you can hear is the sound of breathing."
As soon as he finished his last sentence, thunderous applause broke out in the audience.
People sang "German Land" with the greatest enthusiasm, and the meeting ended with singing.
The man who caused people's emotions to pour out like a flood was also intoxicated by the scene.
So he stood there at the podium for 20 minutes, watching people leave.
Afterwards, he would "joyfully" go out into the darkness of Munich, and return alone to his dark and cold little rental house.…
However, in this timeline, when he just walked out of the theater, he heard a man's voice coming from the darkness.
He said in perfect German: "Mr. Adolf Hitler, congratulations. A very good speech."
