In the spring of 1926, Hitler advanced the principle that the pivotal center of the movement should be the local party organization in Munich, which should lead the country.In this way, he completely controlled the Nazi Party.This principle was adopted at the Bergbrau All-Party Assembly on May 22.Here, Hitler, as the supreme head of state, was endowed with such power, that is, he had the right to select or dismiss any local governor or subordinate leader.This means the total end of the democratic process and complete blind obedience to the Führer principle.Just in case, Hitler insisted on declaring that the 25 points in the original party program could not be amended.He got his wish - now he alone runs the party's ideology.

Deep down, Goebbels was completely on Hitler's side, but outwardly, he remained loyal to Strasser - a man who still had doubts about the Führer. On June 10, Goebbels wrote in his diary that if he could still maintain "absolute independence", as a representative of Hitler, he would only go to Berlin.However, after only two days, he was willing to accept any invitation. "Then I won't be wasting my time. Now it's up to him. Does he want me?" By the time they met again, Goebbels had put himself in an ecstatic state of hero worship. In the mood. Hitler is still a dear comrade.He's a man, you can't help liking him.Besides, there is his supreme thought.In his stubborn head, you can often find something new.As an orator, he harmoniously blends gesture, movement and language in a masterful way.A born agitator!Work with him and you can conquer the world.Just let him have his way, and he can shake a corrupt republic to its very foundations.His best epigram yesterday was: "For our struggle, God has blessed us enough. His best gift is hatred of our enemies—and we hate them with all our hearts."

In July, at the party congress in Weimar, he reconciled almost all the rival factions.The venue was chosen here because Thuringia was one of the few states where Hitler was allowed to speak publicly.His main speech was made on the last day of the Congress (July 4th), and was more emotional than political. "Abstruse and mysterious," Goebbels wrote. "Almost like the Gospel. With him, we trembled over the edge of the abyss of life. He talked about everything. Thank God for giving me such a good man!" When Hitler stepped off the stage, there was thunderous applause, and the cheers lasted for several hours. minute.Standing in the back of the open car, Hitler then inspected 3,500 (the gallant Goebbels expanded the number to 15,000) stormtroopers in ill-fitting uniform and leggings.The stormtroopers saluted with their right hands and walked by in a file-a little irregular pace.

Despite the grievances, and the number of members of the Nazi Party is still less than 40,000, the conclusion of this memorable congress is majestic and majestic enough.At this moment, the numbers did not worry Hitler.In Germany at this time the Nazi Party was one of the smallest parties, but it was an iron fist, his iron fist.After that, he returned to Berchtesgaden, on the one hand to complete the second part, and on the other hand to complete the final task of founding the party: to turn the spell he cast in Weimar into an attack on the party all over the country. Arbitrary control of organizations.

In this effort, there was one man he wanted to hire: Joseph Goebbels.After Hitler retreated to the mountains, Goebbels visited the mountains and became even more fascinated by Hitler. "He is like a child: peaceful, kind, and benevolent; like a cat: resourceful, clever, and dexterous; like a lion: roaring, majestic, and tall. A partner, a man." On July 25, he was in Beibei On the last day of Hittersgaden, the final shift came. "Farewell, my Obersalzberg!" Goebbels wrote that night: "These days are milestones on my path! A bright star rescued me from my misery! I am his forever. My last cloud of doubt is gone. Germany will survive. Long live Hitler!"

Hitler made him wait anxiously for two months.Later, when he confirmed that he was going to Berlin, Goebbels wrote excitedly: "It is a foregone conclusion! Berlin! Long live!" As far as Adolf Hitler was concerned, this was somewhat of a victory.On the surface, after admitting Strasser into the party's top organization, Hitler had made peace with him, but Strasser's talent and energy remained a potential threat to the Führer's principle.Strassel had headquarters in Berlin; by sending Goebbels to Berlin, Hitler effectively turned Strassel's former personal secretary into his opponent.

On November 7, Goebbels set off for Berlin, toward the corridors of power.He was moving toward a new life, both personally and politically—he had broken his engagement to a girl named Else;How could a rising star in the National Socialist constellation get married, or share a bed with, a half-Jewish girl? By the end of that year, the membership had reached almost 50,000.The party organization with Hess as secretary, Schholtz as treasurer, and Poehler as secretary-general is quite efficient (the number of party members during this period is unreliable. Schholtz deliberately numbered party members in order, so that due to The losses caused by quitting or being expelled from the party are ambiguous).In addition, local governors and leaders continue to submit confusing reports so that they do not need to hand over all party dues to headquarters.At the beginning, the party's work organization had only 3 cars and 25 staff members, but now it is growing rapidly.This is a country within a country.With foreign affairs, labor, industry, agriculture, economy, interior, justice, science and technology and information.Auxiliary organizations of the party have also been established or are about to be established: the Hitler Youth League, the Women's League, the Teachers' League, the Lawyers' League, and the Doctors' League.

The most important body of the party is the stormtroopers.Eight new detachments were built during the Weimar Congress to prove that the SA was an integral part of the Nazi party.At the same time, local and regional stormtroopers coordinated under the direct command of the Führer.To accommodate his new legal policy, Hitler selected the "natural organizer" and self-disciplined Franz Pfefer von Solomon to preside over this legal non-military organization. "In order from the outset that the SA does not have the character of any clandestine organization," Hitler wrote to Pfefer, "it should not be concealed, but should be cruised in broad daylight in order to destroy the idea that it is a clandestine organization." Myths... so that our struggle against the government today does not have the character of a society taking revenge; it is a great worldwide movement, a war against Marxism, its structures and its manipulators. We don't need a hundred or two devout conspirators; we need tens of thousands of fanatical fighters fighting for our world cause...We must show the Marxists that the future masters of the streets are the state society doctrine, just as the National Socialists will one day become masters of the country." The official uniform of the SA was a brown shirt and tie.The adoption of this color was purely accidental; the uniform was originally sewn for the German garrisons in East Africa, and as it was not adopted, it was available in large quantities.

At the end of 1926, the second volume was published.The subtitle of this volume is "The National Socialist Movement" and it is based on the history since the day the party presented its 25-point program to the Munich Uprising.It's kind of history, not autobiography.Since Machiavelli (1469-1527, Italian statesman and writer-annotation), there have been few such practical treatises on politics.And Hitler's ideas about propaganda and organization are of practical value to people who have only the level of street fighting.His analysis of crowd psychology shows that he studied Freud's "Group Psychology and Self-Analysis" published in Germany a few years ago. "The group is extremely credulous," Freud wrote, "and susceptible. It lacks critical faculties, for which there is no indecision. The group's sense is always simplistic and exaggerated, so that it does not know What is doubt, what is unresolved." William MacDougall and Gustave Le Bon have expressed similar principles, but their works have not yet been translated into German.Ironically, Hitler asked a Jew in Vienna to teach that if a speaker wanted to sway a crowd, he had to "exaggerate, repeat the same point over and over again."Freud also pointed out that the crowd is "paranoid, but obedient to authority... It demands strength and even violence from its heroes. It demands domination and oppression, fear of its master".It was typical for Hitler to take what he needed from his countrymen.He linked Freud's theories to his mind and forged a formidable weapon.

Hitler's book also shows that he had drastically changed his foreign policy.At the end of the war he was convinced that France was Germany's main enemy, and in a speech in July 1920 he even said that once the Jews were expelled, he would ally himself with the Soviet Union.Now, six years later, in the penultimate chapter of the second volume, he admits that France was wrong as the main enemy, and completely opposes the resumption of the war.The foreign policy of the National Socialist party must be changed, he said, that is to say (emphasis added) "to secure for the German people on this earth the land to which they are entitled".A few pages later, he made his words even more explicit: "We must continue the unfinished business of 600 years ago, stop the endless migration of the Germans south and west, turn our eyes upwards, and keep our eyes on the land of the East." The so-called East mainly refers to Soviet Russia.He attacked that Soviet Russia had fallen "under the yoke of the Jews" and that fate had singled out Germany to conquer this Jewish-infested land.

Expansionism has always been a German dream. In 1906, Klaus Wagner wrote: "Every great nation needs new territories. It must expand into foreign territories. It must expel foreigners by the power of the sword." associated with Judaism.The nation's boundaries are no longer determined by the royal family, he said.As it stands today, "the ruthless Jew is struggling for dominion over the nations. No nation can remove the black hand of the Jew from its neck except by the sword." So, by the sword, he can eliminate the Jews threatened to wipe out France, Russia, and Marxism, and to bring German and Germanic ideals to the fore.He had finally arrived at this conclusion after seven years of searching, by means of his peculiar, unsystematic, almost inspired method, since the apparition he had seen in the Paschalk Hospital. Hess took the book to Professor Haushofer and asked if he could comment on it in his journal?Haushofer was "quite upset" after reading the book, especially (because his wife was Jewish) about Hitler's racist abuse.Nor did he see any connection between his theory of living space and Hitler's theory of the conquest of the East. "It seemed to me," he later recalled, "that it was one of many fleeting books written to confuse people. It was clear that the source of this book had nothing to do with me." After considering the whole book, Hitler admitted to Frank that he was not a writer. "When I was writing, I often couldn't remember it," he admitted, only a collection of the main articles he wrote for the People's Observer. "One thing is certain, if I had known in 1924 that I would be Prime Minister, I would not have written this book." A few days after the second volume was published, Hitler turned a Nazi Christmas celebration at the Hotel Hofbloss into a vicious attack on Jews. "Christ," he said, "was the greatest fighter in the early struggle against the Jew, the enemy of the world." (Hitler did not see Jesus as a Jew, but as a half-Jew who did not follow the Jewish religion and thus was free of Jewish poison, and other The absurd reason is that he has a pure mind and nothing more than Jewish grandparents.) He is not a messenger of peace.His purpose in life and teaching throughout his life was to fight against the power of capitalism, for which he was crucified by his number one enemy, the Jews. "What Christ did not finish, I, Adolf Hitler, will finish." A few months later, the self-proclaimed Messiah's most powerful political weapon was returned. On March 5, 1927, the ban on public speaking in Bavaria was lifted. Four days later, he addressed a large and excited audience at the Crown Circus.At 8:30 p.m., shouts of "Heil Hitler!" rang out outside. Then, the band played an exciting march.Hitler came in in uniform, followed by a retinue.Amid the cheers and stomping of the audience, he strode quickly along the aisle.As soon as Hitler came to the podium, there was a sudden silence in the hall. 200 brownshirts, led by 2 drummers and a flag.Step into the venue. The sound of "Long Live" was suddenly thunderous, and the audience all raised their arms in a fascist salute.On the stage, Hitler looked stern and stretched out his right arm.Amidst the music, the flag bearers took to the rostrum with the glittering wreathed eagle and swastika flag in the style of Roman legions.The stormtroopers took their seats off the stage, while those on the stage stood motionless at attention behind the speaker. At the beginning, Hitler spoke very slowly, unhurriedly.Then he went on and on.Jumping back and forth and gesticulating with excitement, he "fascinated an audience of 1,000 people," according to the police. When his speech was interrupted by applause, he stretched his hands forward in dramatic fashion. .The 'no' word that often appears in the second half of the speech is also accentuated by hostility like drama." This is Hanussen's speech.For two and a half hours, Hitler talked about the crisis in Germany; he concluded that in such a chaotic world, only the Jews were victorious.It was an impassioned speech, not so much what he said but how he delivered it.There was only one thing he was sure of: this time, he would use Pin's charisma legally and to the maximum to achieve his goal. During similar important speeches, Hitler often had to drink 20 small bottles of mineral water, and his shirt was often soaked with sweat.Sometimes, especially in the summer, he insisted on placing a block of ice on the podium to cool hands.After each speech, he immediately went to the nearby room (provided by the conference organizer) to take a shower.
