, Vienna.

In the Hofburg Palace, the famous winter palace of the Habsburg dynasty, German President Hindenburg, who was on vacation in Vienna, stood up after hearing the news of the shooting in Mainz.

President Hindenburg’s hair and beard stood up, his eyes widened, as if he couldn’t believe it, and it seemed hard to accept.

He waited for the secretary to come and report, and asked,”Is it true?”

The secretary nodded,”It happened on Graben Street, and at least 150,000 people witnessed this incident!”

“”Hmph!”

President Hindenburg snorted heavily, stared at his secretary and asked,”How is General Mainz? Where is he now?”

……

The Mainz couple who were shot were immediately sent to the medical school of the University of Vienna for rescue under the protection of the army.

The University of Vienna is the oldest university in the whole of Audili, and their medical school is currently the best hospital in the world. It has the most outstanding professors and facilities. It is a medical sanctuary in the whole of Europe and even the whole world.

No one knows how serious the injuries of Chancellor Mainz are, because after he was sent here, the 11th Armored Division stationed in the southern region, led by Major Rommel, had rushed to Vienna and closely protected the hospital.

President Hindenburg arrived here in an armored vehicle of the army. As the president, he could not make any mistakes when the prime minister was assassinated and his life and death were unknown.

If President Hindenburg was also assassinated, then Hans would immediately be in chaos.

“President, this way!”

President Hindenburg walked into the hospital with a gloomy face under the guidance of the German soldiers.

Like the outside of the hospital, the inside of the hospital was also full of soldiers with live ammunition.

Hindenburg keenly discovered the difference of this army. Their uniforms were camouflage uniforms composed of a large number of tiny green patches. Hindenburg didn’t know what camouflage was, but he instinctively felt that the uniforms of these troops were a little strange!

What’s even stranger is that the weapons in the hands of these soldiers are not Mauser rifles but a shorter firearm that looks like a submachine gun, but it is obviously not the MP-18 submachine gun that Hindenburg knows.

This army has a small number of people, but they exude a tough aura all over their bodies, which makes people feel extremely dangerous!

“Which room is Mainz in?”

Hindenburg glanced at the ward corridor and found a crowded ward, so he walked straight towards it.

The tense atmosphere and pungent smell of medicine in the hospital made Hindenburg very unhappy, but his concern for Mainz made him have no time to care about these.

Walking outside the room, Hindenburg took a deep breath, opened the door, and was stunned.

“”Where are the people?”

Through the crack in the door, I could see that this was an empty room.

Admiral Mainz was not in it.

……

Because of the popularity of telegraphs, the news of Prime Minister Hans’ assassination spread throughout Europe in just half a day.

European countries, especially old powers like the British Empire and Gaul, have extremely developed intelligence networks. As soon as Mainz was assassinated, they got the relevant intelligence and immediately sent it back to their own countries. After learning this intelligence, both MI6 and MI7 did not dare to be careless and immediately reported the intelligence to their heads of state.

“Is the news confirmed? Is it fake news?”

In the British Empire, in the Fog City, in the Prime Minister’s residence on Downing Street, after receiving the intelligence handed over by MI6, the British Prime Minister Stanley was very excited. If this news is true, then Hans will usher in an earthquake in politics!

In 1919, European countries generally looked down on Mainz and Hindenburg, thinking that a soldier as the head of state would definitely lead the country astray, and would make Hans struggle longer and weaker in the post-war quagmire.

At that time, when they heard that President Hindenburg intended to make Mainz his successor, European countries, especially the British Empire and the Gauls, were looking at this matter with a sarcastic and interesting attitude!

However, five years later, the words they used to laugh at Hans and Mainz became ironclad evidence of their slap in the face. The British Empire and the Gauls were slapped in the face again and again. Under the leadership of Mainz, Hans not only did not fall into the quagmire of economic recession and social unrest , but recovered quickly and achieved a series of incredible achievements.

Whether it was taking advantage of the Allied Powers’ interference in the Russian War to annex Audily, or withstanding the Gauls’ attack and taking back the Ruhr Industrial Zone, and later using the threat of the Polish people to completely abolish the Treaty of Versailles and get rid of the post-war restrictions on Germany.

These things happened one after another, one after another, and each one can make people feel Mainz’s skill!

The evaluation and understanding of Mainz by the top leaders of the British Empire and Gaul has also been completely reversed. Those who looked down on him at the beginning have now deeply felt the threat of Hans and can no longer utter a word of sarcasm!

And as Hans gradually became stronger, the British Empire and Gaul had to face up to Mainz. This soldier is from a Junker noble family!

Soldiers from all countries are generally hawkish figures who are tough on foreign countries. Mainz is no exception. He is also a tough hawkish leader.

Behind this toughness, his overall view, international vision and political skills are mature, unlike a soldier.

Moreover, the power behind this person is extremely strong. He has all the military power in Hans, and his prestige in the army cannot be replaced.

He himself is also a military expert with unfathomable military attainments.

Moreover, the SS, which has been in a stalemate with MI6 and MI7 and has come from behind in the intelligence system, seems to be a private force directly under Mainz.

The most terrifying thing is that this person also has his own political party.

MI6 It has been found out that the German Progress Party, which ranks second in Hans, is the party founded by Mainz.

After Hindenburg went south to Audili, Mainz has been in charge of the power of the entire country as the prime minister instead of the president for half a year!

In any country, people who have the supreme power of the party, government and army can be threatening, not to mention that this country is the second largest country in Europe, Hans!

Therefore, since 1922, the Sun Never Sets and the Gauls have become more and more anxious!

They know that Mainz will gradually come to the fore, take over the power of the entire Hans, and dominate Hans’ future strategy.

They also know the terrible consequences of letting this person take power.

However, they are powerless to do anything about it. They feel deeply afraid and try their best to stop Mainz and prevent Hans from falling into Mainz’s hands!

Therefore, whether it is MI6 or Gaul’s Seventh Bureau, they have planned assassinations and attacks against Mainz.

This time, after hearing the news that Mainz was attacked, the British Prime Minister’s first reaction was that it was the Gauls who did it!

“Our people witnessed it with their own eyes, but because the military protection is too tight, we have not been able to get the latest intelligence, and we still don’t know whether the Mainz couple is alive or dead!”

“Very good, continue to monitor, and report to me as soon as there is any news!”

Prime Minister Stanley rubbed his hands excitedly. Now as long as the news of Mainz’s death is confirmed, it will be the best news for both the Sun Never Sets and him!
