Chapter 38

After the death of Marshal Hindenburg, the Weimar State held a grand memorial ceremony.

On the day of Marshal Hindenburg's funeral, the whole Berlin was deserted.

Countless people spontaneously bid farewell to this marshal who had a legendary life.

Especially the Wehrmacht, almost all generals and major officers were present at Field Marshal Hindenburg's funeral.

As prime minister, Hess naturally attended the funeral. The generals of the National Defense Forces have greatly changed their attitude towards Hess in more than a year.

Most of the generals and officers have already recognized him. Especially after the death of Marshal Hindenburg, Hess naturally gained the allegiance of these generals.

You must know that in the current Wehrmacht, there is simply no one who can compare with him in terms of prestige, nor is he qualified to replace Field Marshal Hindenburg.

Under such circumstances, it is naturally understandable that Hess became the commander-in-chief of the army.

After the funeral of Marshal Hindenburg, Weimar held a general election for power.

This time in the general election, there was no one competing against Hess. Therefore, Hess became the only candidate to govern.

People across the country walked out of their homes to vote.

On this day, Hess stayed in his office and did not go out.

Although he knew that his election to power was already a certainty.

But how many votes he can get is what he cares about. In another time and space, Mustache did not hold a ruling election after the death of Marshal Hindenburg. Instead, the cabinet passed a bill declaring that the power of the governor was temporarily suspended and transferred to the prime minister, which made Mustache the governor and concurrently the prime minister. At the same time, he became the supreme commander of the armed forces.

Originally, Hess could do the same. But he knew that doing so would be opposed by many people.

Even if they didn't dare to do anything to him, there would undoubtedly be hidden dangers.

So Hess simply held an election to govern. He firmly believes that it will succeed.

Sure enough, perhaps because of the shock of the Night of Long Knives at the end of last year, no one dared to compete with him.

The only thing that worries Hess now is not knowing how many people will support him. He also hopes to get support from more people. In this case, it represents how high his prestige is in this country.

"Hess, you are the best and no one can compete with you."Anne Barak accompanied Hess.

Hess nodded:"I know. However, I want to know how many people support me and how many people oppose me in this country. In this way, I will know my shortcomings"

"Hess, no matter what, I will firmly support you!"Anne Barak said affectionately.

Hess held Anne Barak in his arms.

Time passed quickly. After sunset, the general election voting ended.

Nervous counting work began at various counting stations.

Because only Hess One candidate, so voters have only two choices after voting, either support or oppose. Apart from this, there is no third choice. The vast majority of the people are dissatisfied with the policies implemented by Hess since he came to power. They are all satisfied. But at the same time, there are also a small number of people who oppose him. Especially those whose interests have been harmed will naturally oppose him. At

9 o'clock in the evening, Deputy Prime Minister Papen and Chief of the Interior Heydrich, who are responsible for this selection Himmler sent the election results

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, congratulations on your successful election!"Papen's face was full of smiles.

After last year's Night of Long Knives, Papen has completely become Hess's lackey.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, we have won!"Himmler was even more excited.

"How many opponents are there?"Hess took a deep breath.

He would be successfully elected, which of course was not beyond his expectation.

After all, it would be strange if they all failed when there was only one candidate like him.

"Nine point ninety-four percent." Himmler said

"call!"Hess breathed a long sigh of relief.

Nine point ninety-four percent of the people opposed him, which means that ninety point six percent of the people supported him.

This is already very difficult. More than nine percent Everyone supports him.

This means that he has gained absolute popular support.

"very good. However, we still have room for improvement!"Hess said.

Later, Hess came to the balcony on the second floor and waved to the cheering people.

"thank you! we won! From now on, this country will enter a new era. I hope that we will create a new and powerful empire. That is the Third Reich!" exclaimed Hess

"Long live! Long live the Third Reich!" The supporters cheered.
