Hitler was the initiator of World War II, the large-scale persecution of Jews during the ruling Nazi Germany, the Soviet Red Army after the siege of Berlin, committed suicide in the basement of the German Chancellery, his life rarely feared people and things, and Hitler's only fear was Paul von Hindenburg, and when he shook hands, Hitler never dared to look up.
In 1931, Hitler met Hindenburg for the first time, when Hindenburg was president, and Hitler caused all this by declaring in the world economic crisis that the government had accepted the Treaty of Versailles and war reparations, leaving the German people in deep trouble, thus gaining the recognition of many Germans, gradually making the Nazi Party grow to hundreds of people, and it was precisely because of the Nazi Party's strength that Hindenburg met hitler.
Hitler was ambitious, but when he saw Hindenburg, his momentum was obviously inferior to that of Hindenburg, and he did not dare to look Hindenburg in the eye when shaking hands. The following year, Hindenburg had planned to retire, but due to ridicule and ridicule by the Nazis, Hindenburg decided to go out again and was nominated as a candidate.
In the first round of elections, Hindenburg received 49.6% of the vote, compared with only 30% of Hitler's votes; in the second round, Hindenburg overpowered Hitler with 53% of the vote, and Hitler's vote was 36.8%.
Through the two elections, the ambitious Hitler also deeply realized that his prestige among the people was inferior to Hindenburg, so he put forward the slogan of "respect Hindenburg, vote for Hitler", trying to take advantage of the momentum of Hindenburg to raise his own value.
Born into the nobility, Hindenburg fought in the Austro-Prussian And franco-Prussian Wars, was promoted to general in 1903, and later during World War I, Hindenburg was promoted to field marshal for defeating the Russian army, and his tacit cooperation with Erich von Ludendorff was highly praised.
However, Germany was defeated in World War I, and Hindenburg became the second-largest war criminal after the Kaiser, but he never left Germany, not even his army, and in 1925, after the death of Albert, the first president of the Weimar Republic, Hindenburg was elected president with more than 14.6 million votes.
But Hindenburg was 85 years old when he was re-elected in 1932, and his life expectancy was not long, and Hitler at this time made a good impression on Hindenburg, who intended to use Hitler and said: "I should turn poachers into foresters." ”
Although Hitler was afraid of Hindenburg, Hindenburg was already old and weak, which meant that the threat to Hitler was weakened, and Hitler did not look down on The Chancellor Franz von Papen, so Hitler became arrogant, but after Hindenburg deposed Papen, when he let the most respected iron-blooded boy von Schleicher, the most respected German, form a cabinet, it directly threatened Hitler's plan to seize power in an all-round way.
Therefore, Hitler had to take a long-term view and "make reparations" to Papen, and also invited the leading figures of the German monopoly consortium to submit a petition to Hindenburg, so Hindenburg let Baben and Hitler form a cabinet agreement, and in 1933, Hitler came to power as the head of Germany.
On August 2, 1934, Hindenburg died, and the last obstacle before Hitler disappeared, Hitler buried Hindenburg on the battlefield of his past victory over Russia, and erected a monument, but in the later stages of World War II, when the German army was defeated, in order to prevent Hindenburg and his wife's coffin from being destroyed by soviet troops, the German Army transferred them to Marburg.
