The Third Reich: I Became Emperor

August knew it was a trap, but he was still willing to jump in, because he didn't want the Third Reich to collapse, nor did he want the people of the empire to bear shame again.

"I have a request." Seeing August take over this mess, Brauchitsch and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Now that he has made another request, Brauchitsch and others will naturally not refuse.

"Please go ahead, Your Majesty," Marshal Brauchitsch said respectfully.

"I need to make some personnel adjustments on the Eastern Front, so I need the support of the Wehrmacht. August stared at Brauchitsch and said

"No problem, the Prussian Officers Corps will always support you."Blauchitsch and others are all Junker nobles, and they are very respectful to Frederick's family, otherwise they would not have saved August.

Hearing this, August sneered in his heart. At this time, he had calmed down and probably guessed why he should inherit the throne.

It must be that these Junker nobles were fighting for power with each other, and in the end no one wanted the other to take the throne. Finally, they remembered that Peacock Island was still holding the son of the German Emperor, so they simply let him inherit the throne and continue to take the blame.

However, August didn't care at all. He didn't have his own direct line now, and he had to rely on these people. After stabilizing the Eastern Front and becoming strong enough, he would deal with them.

"Very good, I need to hold a special meeting to adjust the personnel deployment on the Eastern Front. August looked at Brauchitsch and others and said in a deep voice

"No problem, we'll arrange it now"

"Besides, I want to live in the City Palace." August said calmly:"Since I have restored the throne, I will naturally live in the City Palace. It is the palace of our Frederick family, not some shitty museum."

The City Palace has always been where the Frederick family lived, but after the last defeat, William II was driven away and the City Palace became a museum.

"You will live in the City Palace within three days at the latest. Marshal Brauchitsch did not refuse this, after all, it was his family's.

"Your Majesty, do you have any other requests?"

"No more." August shook his head, and then added:"I can summon any general now, right?"

"Absolutely. It would be their honor to have you here."

"Zorn, ask General Guderian to come to me. I have something to discuss with him."August nodded, and then looked at the secretary beside him.

Brauchitsch and others had no objection to August summoning Guderian. At this time, the armored forces on the Eastern Front suffered heavy losses, and Guderian was transferred back to train new equipment soldiers without real power.

Soon, under Zorn's arrangement, Guderian came to Peacock Island.

Along the way, Guderian's mood was very complicated. He did not expect that the leader would be attacked and killed. Just when he was worried about the future of the empire, Brauchitsch and others quickly supported Prince August Wilhelm, the son of German Emperor Wilhelm II, to inherit the throne.

Now, the newly crowned emperor summoned him immediately, which made him very uneasy. Due to the disastrous defeat on the Eastern Front, the armored forces on the front suffered heavy losses. He had no choice but to return to Berlin to train new armored forces.

In his eyes, armored forces should be used in a concentrated manner, instead of being assigned to various army groups and acting as firefighters, which is completely a tactic of adding fuel to the fire.

""Your Majesty, you want to see me?" Guderian said respectfully.

"General Guderian, don't be so strange, we have known each other for a long time, and I still remember the time when we discussed the use of tanks together. August said with a smile.

He had been active in the Hindenburg era, and he knew all the prominent generals of the Wehrmacht. After all, he was once one of the leaders of the SA.

"I met you today just to ask about the training of the armored forces.

Seeing Guderian silent, August didn't care. After all, he was just an emperor now, and nothing else mattered.

""Your Majesty, I have trained ten armored divisions, but due to the limited production of tanks, they are temporarily unable to exert their combat effectiveness." Guderian's tone was less enthusiastic and he responded casually.

Hearing this, August nodded. The situation on the Eastern Front was already rotten. It was difficult to turn the tide with these ten armored divisions. The only way was to form a strong army to change the situation on the Eastern Front. A strong army must have armored forces. What he lacked the least now was tanks. There were at least tens of thousands of tanks in the arms supermarket on the first floor. As long as he had money, he could get tens of thousands of tanks at any time.

"Ten armored divisions are still too few. I hope to increase it to thirty. Within a month at most, I will allocate a batch of tanks to you, at least 5,000 Leopard tanks. You must form a battle force as soon as possible. The Empire needs your armored forces."August looked at Guderian and said with a smile

"What? Thirty armored divisions?"Guderian was stunned for a moment:"Where can I find so many people?"

"Is it difficult to solve? Don't worry, I'll solve it for you. Doesn't the Air Force have 250,000 air force field divisions? All of them will be assigned to you."August said lightly

"Goering is dead, don't worry, Brauchitsch and others have already agreed."
