After he retired, a curious thing happened. The tension which had been building up to an almost unendurable point in the bunker broke, and several persons went to the canteen — to dance. The weird party soon became so noisy that word was sent from the Fuehrer's quarters requesting more quiet. The Russians might come in a few hours and kill them all — though most of them were already thinking of how they could escaped — but in the meantime, for a brief spell, now that the Fuehrer's strict control of their lives was over, they would seek pleasure where and how they could find it. The sense of relief among these people seems to have been enormous, and they danced on through the night.
希特勒一走，不可思議的事便發(fā)生了。地堡里一直不斷加劇的幾乎令人無法忍受的緊張氣氛突然間被打破了，好幾個(gè)人走進(jìn)食堂—跳起舞來，怪誕的舞會(huì)不久變得吵吵嚷嚷，以至于元首的住處傳出話來，要大家安靜一些。俄國(guó)人說不定幾小時(shí)之內(nèi)就要打進(jìn)來，將他們統(tǒng)統(tǒng)殺死—盡管他們中間大部分人已在考慮如何逃命—但此時(shí)此刻，既然元首對(duì)他們生活的嚴(yán)格控制已告結(jié)束，雖是短暫的片刻，他們也要及時(shí)行樂。
Berlin was no longer defensible. The Russians already had occupied almost all of the city. It was now merely a question of the defense of the Chancellery. It too was doomed, as Hitler and Bormann learned at the situation conference at noon on April 30, the last that was ever to take place. The Russians were just a block away. The hour for Adolf Hitler to carry out his resolve had come.
柏林的防守已經(jīng)崩潰。俄國(guó)人已經(jīng)占領(lǐng)了幾乎整個(gè)城市。現(xiàn)在的問題僅是如何保衛(wèi)總理府。然而，正如希特勒和鮑曼在４月３０日中午最后一次形勢(shì)分析上所獲悉的那樣，總理府也注定要被攻破。俄國(guó)人離總理府僅有一個(gè)街區(qū)了。阿道夫· 希特勒實(shí)現(xiàn)其決心的時(shí)刻已到。
