Strock: Herr General, I have confirmed those rumors to be true; the Fuhrer has been persecuting innocent civilians. The night after I confirmed these rumors, somebody put a bullet in the Fuhrer's head. Suspicions are that one of the members of the General Staff hired an assassin to do his work. The Chief of the General Staff has assumed command and has decided to halt all the fighting. The Chief wants to negotiate terms for surrender. ... Herr General, I want you to withdraw 20 miles from the front line all the troops that you have left, and wait for orders to surrender your men.
