Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/ The latest work of Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng! Chapter 11 Confused
Now General Farkenhausen, the current Belgian Governor General Falkenhausen, was particularly impressed by Zhou Nan in another life. Not only because he was Hoffman's friend, but also because he was a good friend of the people of the motherland.
After retiring in 1930, Farkenhausen went to the mainland to serve as a military adviser. He gave great help to the mainland people on many issues and was a rare Western general who did not care about his skin color.
In 1937, Nazi Germany formally formed an alliance with Japan, and Japan had declared war on the mainland during the War of Resistance Against Japan. In order to show goodwill to Japan, Nazi Germany admitted Japan's puppet Manchukuo in the mainland and withdrew Germany's support to the mainland, including forcing Falkenhausen to resign from his position as an advisor by punishing his family for treason.
Under such circumstances, Farkenhausen was forced to return to China, and Zhou Nan also came to Germany with him. In 1938, Farkenhausen was recalled to work and served as an infantry general on the Western Front. In May 1940, he was appointed as the military governor of Belgium, and has been to this day.
During his tenure as Governor of Belgium, he released many Jews through Zhou Nan's compatriot Miss Qian. For this reason, he was not sentenced after the war, but released. Later, he lived in seclusion in the German town of Nassau until his death in 1966.
When Zhou Nan came to Germany for the first time in the 1980s to find Hoffman family members, he personally went to his grave to worship him. In his heart, this was a respectable German general.
Sitting by the quiet river bank, Zhou Nan told Hoffman that some changes in his dreams that were closely related to the environment around him were all told to Hoffman that these were very important to Hoffman, because only by knowing these could he have better plans.
But Zhou Nan overestimated his ability to withstand it. The sudden impact made the strong Hoffman feel a little restless. He stood up and said, "Let's go to the place where I'm 'dead'."
Not only did Hoffman find this sentence strange, but even Zhou Nan also finds it strange. However, he asked Hoffman to meet here, and one of the purposes was because of this, so of course he had no opinion.
The two of them drove a car, John sat in the back row and drove north. The place was less than ten kilometers away from where they met, and they arrived in a few minutes.
Zhou Nan parked the car on the side of the road, looked at the surrounding environment, and determined a place. "It's here. In order to avoid bombing the car you drove into the forest, but the God of Doom has arrived, but it was in the forest, you..."
Hoffman seemed to stare into the forest, but there was no focus. His cold face on weekdays also showed a hint of weakness and confusion, which was obviously a huge mental impact. But because of this, Zhou Nan knew that he completely believed in his words.
This trust made Zhou Nan very happy. He could believe in himself so easily because he truly treated himself as his family.
Moreover, in this era, Europeans are actually quite superstitious, and all kinds of accidents can be woven into miracles. Zhou Nan was originally thinking that if Hoffman didn't believe in him, he could also borrow miracles to make Hoffman believe it, but now it seems that it is not necessary.
After a long time, Hoffman calmed down and said, "You go back today and arrange the work you have in your hands for Reina, and then take the train to Brussels tomorrow. I need to calm down today because I don't know what to say to you, and I have no plans to face these. In the future, we need to think carefully about how to face the future life."
Zhou Nan nodded, but pulled the wound behind his head and couldn't help but grin. Hoffman couldn't help but smile and stroked Zhou Nan's head. "Now I can't continue to treat you as a child. Although I have experienced so many things in my dreams, these spiritual hardships have made you truly mature."
Zhou Nan couldn't help but say, "I am your child, and this will never change."
He smiled with relief and asked gently, "You're hungry, let's go back to Antwerp, I'll find you some food, and then you go back to Arnhem."
Back at the canal, Hoffman seemed to have calmed down and drove into his own car. In today's Europe, there are almost no restaurants, and all civilians distribute food in a unified manner and require tickets for whatever they eat.
Only some high-end restaurants are open, but at this time, there must be some German officers or businessmen in the restaurant. Hoffmann now just wants to think quietly about the shock brought by Zhou Nan and does not want to fall into an additional social event. So, he took Zhou Nan to a military camp on the outskirts of the city.
After the entire Western Europe was occupied by Germany, Antwerp also became a large rear. Due to the departure of the Jews who controlled the diamond trading, most of the current diamond trading has been stopped.
After the world calmed down, the Germans did not manage them here very strictly. Like most parts of the Netherlands, the locals did not receive much oppression except for a lower income.
At least a half of the people in these areas welcomed the German army. When the German army entered these areas, countless people lined up to welcome them, and many women even gave German soldiers flowers and fragrant kisses.
Except for the Jews.
The Germans occupied almost the entire Europe, and they no longer had the soil to survive on the European continent. Their situation was also the most difficult, and there was no hope.
As a logistics businessman and with the support of the Belgian Governor, Hoffman did not suffer any difficulties here. However, because he had something in mind, Hoffman did not disturb the chief here, but just took out his identity registration and asked for two packages.
The German army's package was almost the same, and the food was almost the same, whether it was an officer or a lowest-level private. The officers were nothing more than a little more in other welfare, and even single officers had not had a higher salary than soldiers with a few children, which fully demonstrated that everyone was equal.
The appearance of Zhou Nan, an oriental man, has aroused many discussions among soldiers. It is obvious that his fame has not spread here. However, with the accompanying of Hoffmann with a serious face and a logistics officer, his appearance did not cause much riots.
However, some nationalists were still a little dissatisfied with Zhou Nan's appearance, including a sergeant with a beard. He was bewitched by a group of soldiers and arrived at Zhou Nan's dinner table. He saluted the major logistics officer first, and then asked a little arrogantly: "Sir Maxi, it's hard for me to understand that an Oriental man appeared in our military camp and was eating the same food as us."
Maxi looked at Zhou Nan and had not spoken yet, but Hoffman had already stood up and said loudly: "Sergeant, although this oriental man in your eyes has a different skin color than ours, he also contributed his own strength to the empire. The sausages you eat today, the clothes you wear, and the bandages you wrapped in were all transported from Germany to the front line. In Arnhem, the transportation work he was responsible for was always completed very well, and therefore it was recognized by all German soldiers. The wound on his head was injured by a mine from the Dutch guerrillas half a month ago. Do you think he is qualified to sit with you for dinner?"
This bearded man was obviously not a good person. After hearing Hoffman's words, he saluted Zhou Nan and said, "Please forgive my presumption. This answer is very satisfying to me."
Maxi smiled and said, "Sergeant, I appreciate your integrity and courage. But, please fill us in your stomach first?"
Zhou Nan has become accustomed to such things. Today, Europe is still the center of the world. Even Americans are considered a group of country bumpkins, let alone Asians of different skin colors.
It is also for this reason that it is very difficult for Zhou Nan to survive in Europe by relying on his own abilities. Unless he hides in a certain village and does not contact the outside world, he will always be unable to avoid such discriminatory gazes.
If it weren't for the war in Asia, it would continue to ignite in the future. If it weren't for returning to my hometown, I would have faced decades of ups and downs, Zhou Nan would definitely not be willing to stay in Europe.
Although he experienced a person's life in his dream and had a clearer understanding of the future than everyone else, Zhou Nan still thought he was just an ordinary person. He had no ability to change the world and just wanted to survive well.
After lunch, Hoffman brought Zhou Nan into the car and just patted him on the shoulder gently. "Be careful on the way back, call me when you arrive in Arnhem."
Zhou Nan nodded, got into the car, and said through the door: "Yanik, these prophets should not be a burden to us. On the contrary, these are our forces to change our destiny, and everything will be fine."
Compared to Zhou Nan, which took nearly two hours to get home, Hoffmann returned to Seneff Castle in the northern suburbs of Brussels in half an hour.
The owner of this castle was originally a Jewish banker. The arrival of the war allowed the castle to replace it with a new owner. Since the castle happened to be located in the middle of the airport and the railway station, it was very close to the port area and the Laken Palace, and the surrounding transportation was convenient, it was determined to be the Governor's Office of the German military control government.
Hoffman also has his own room and office in this castle, but he prefers to live in a small villa near the dock area, which not only does not have strict guards, but also is closer to the storage center. Of course, the more important reason is that he can be free here and no one can take care of him.
But the news from Zhou Nan today had a great impact on him. Until now, he still felt a cold chill appearing from inside his body, making his whole body stiff.
This problem that cannot be explained by science made him feel sincerely afraid. He now needs a safe place to seriously consider the dilemma he will face in the future.
