Ludwig. Feng. Captain Hersmann rode in a horse-drawn carriage from the branch of the Army General Hospital in the small town of Tsosen to the General Staff Headquarters at Königplatz in Berlin; The cold, damp weather in Berlin in February was very similar to his state of mind at this time. He had woken up in that damn dilapidated hospital more than a month earlier, as a German militarist wounded on the Eastern Front in World War I...... But he clearly remembered that before he fell into a coma, he was Lu Xiaohua, a Chinese student studying at the First School of Natural Sciences of Humboldt University in Germany!

"Damn the Germans! Damn old man Shi! Damn brainwave experiment...... "Leaning back in the carriage, Captain Hersman swore and spoke standard Mandarin Chinese. As a former "German fan", Lu Xiaohua is quite superstitious about "German" things or people, otherwise he would not have traveled all the way to Germany to study - now it seems that this is a huge mistake, if he did not come to Germany, he would not have met Professor Schlieffen that Frankenstein, let alone be fooled by this unreliable German old man to do a riskless brainwave control experiment, so that his pure soul would not inexplicably cross into the body of a great German emperor ** a hundred years ago.

Although there is such a thing as "crossing", Lu Xiaohua also liked it before he encountered it. But if it really falls on your head, it's really not so easy to accept. This is not Ye Gong's good dragon, but waking up in a dirty and dilapidated military hospital, his head wrapped in gauze, and the feeling of falling apart all over his body, dying, and saying goodbye to everything he loved in the past - parents, brothers, studies, and girlfriend who finally got into it, and then facing a new life that is likely to be a tragedy!

Yes, there is a high probability of a tragedy!

Because the era of Lu Xiaohua's rebirth was itself a tragic era - it was March 1917, the First World War was in full swing, countless lives were consumed by the flames of war, and the whole of Europe was almost in ruins. And for Germany, which he is now in the camp, there is still more than a year before the final defeat.

With the historical and military knowledge of Lu Xiaohua, a German fan who no longer believed in the Germans, he really couldn't think of any possibility for a German army captain to save the Second Reich that was about to fall.

Even if it's Lu Xiaohua, no, it should be Ludwig. Feng. Captain Hersmann received a notice that he was to report to the Grand General Staff at Königplatz...... What role can a captain play even if he reaches the Grand General Staff?

At most, it is to serve tea and water and run errands. According to the memories left to Lu Xiaohua by Captain Hersman, who graduated with honors from the Grosslichfeld Military Academy. Serving tea, delivering water and running errands at the Grand General Staff was the only way for most of the German elite to rise.

According to the rules of the game of various spells for fathers and academic qualifications in the German Army, Captain Hirschmann (a Junker petty nobleman) with a good academic background is a relatively promising army officer. They will go back and forth between the General Staff, embassies abroad, and army units for many years, accumulate various experiences, and gradually improve. When you are forty or fifty years old, if you are lucky, you can be promoted to the rank of general. Be a military commander or a superintendent in the Great General Staff...... If you want to go further, you have to see if His Majesty the Emperor of the German Empire can look at this German army elite who can speak five Chinese, is not tall, looks a little fat, has a lot of freckles on his face, and has a very pleasant smile.

Of course, the above path to promotion in the German Army no longer makes sense to Hersmann now. Because he knew that the invincible German Second Germany had just over a year left.

Because Lu Xiaohua dressed as a German captain instead of a general, no one could save this empire that was mired in war and could not extricate itself. After the defeat, Germany will be emasculated and bound by the Treaty of Versailles, and the size of the Wehrmacht will only be 100,000 men. Hersman was lucky to be able to stay in this small army and not be laid off and unemployed, and I am afraid that the matter of promotion and wealth will have to wait until the Führer comes to power......

By the way, where is the Führer now? Recuperating in the hospital, or squatting on the Western Front? Do you want to go to him earlier to get acquainted? When the Nazis come to power, let's get a marshal or something? But...... Will Hitler's madman be able to win the world war this time? If he is defeated again, he may have to go to the gallows with him, a marshal of the Third Reich!

The thought of hanging, Hersman felt his neck tighten and he had trouble breathing. He reached out and pushed open the window, and the cold, damp air blew into the car, driving the feeling of tightness and shortness of breath away from Hersman. His eyes turned to the street beyond the car window, where the carriage had entered the city of Berlin, and was marching on the Kurfürdienbou, and the road was deserted, and although it was already noon, there were no pedestrians in sight—most of the men who could pick up rifles had been drafted into the army, and everywhere had become depressed, and a large city like Berlin was better, but even more depressed in the countryside, and large tracts of land had been abandoned because there was no labor to cultivate them.

Half of the shops and restaurants on the streets are closed - in fact, there are not enough to sell. There was a long queue in front of only the shops that supplied rations...... For Germany, the world war was too long and too large. The pre-war reserves had long been depleted, and too many laborers had become gun-carrying soldiers, which also hit German production hard. And because of the blockade of the British Navy, Germany was unable to buy much-needed supplies from overseas.

The combination of various factors made it more and more difficult to supply in Germany, not only did it difficult for ordinary people to get enough food to eat, but even the hospital meals in the army hospital where Hersmann was staying became a little worse...... It seems that this defeat is inevitable.

And what about the next world war? That's related to whether you won't go to the gallows, you must think about it!

Captain Hersmann's brow gradually condensed, and all that came to mind were the memories of World War II brought by later generations, as well as various in-depth analyses of World War II Germany at later military forums.

If we throw away the lofty banner of democracy, freedom, and anti-fascism, World War II, like World War I, was a challenge to the old empires that had already carved up the world -- mainly Britain and the United States.

Among them, Britain has the largest territory, known as the sun never sets, and colonies are all over the world! It also owns two rich lands, India and South Africa (which produce gold). And the British Empire also has the most powerful navy in the world and is the master of the ocean!

And the colonies of the United States, the beacon of democracy in later generations, are not many, but the sphere of influence is not small - people claim that the Americas are Americans, except for Canada and a few small colonies controlled by Europeans, the whole of America can be regarded as the sphere of influence of the United States!

In addition, the United States has two important colonies in the Pacific, Hawaii and the Philippines, and their homeland is rich and vast. Enough to support the world's largest economy, the future is bound to be limitless.

In addition, the United States is quite close to the British Empire in terms of culture, ideas, institutions and capital!

According to some non-mainstream economists in later generations, the British Empire and the American Empire were both countries manipulated by big capital and big conglomerates. And there is no boundary between Britain and the United States, so the domination of the world has shifted from Britain to the United States, which is no different for these conglomerates hiding behind the scenes - they can easily transfer capital from Britain to the United States, and use the shell of the United States to continue to rule the world!

But if the domination of the world were transferred to the nationalist German Reich, it would undoubtedly be the end of the world for the Anglo-American consortium - although Germany also had many famous big conglomerates, it was the nationalist army, not the chaebols, that ruled Germany.

If in Britain and the United States it was the consortium that owns the state, then in Germany it is the army that owns the state. The consortium must serve the army and the country, not the other way around.

It is precisely on this basis that the big conglomerates that rule the United States do not want to see Britain lose in a world war by countries other than the United States! More reluctant to see the emergence of a European continent ruled by German nationalists......

According to this theory, the essence of the two world wars was a struggle between international capitalism and the statism of the late-developing powers.

And the result of both struggles was the complete defeat of nationalism in the late-developing countries! In the view of some keyboard politicians of later generations, there is a certain inevitability -- because the international capitalist side is united in the world war, and although there is a contradiction in national interests between Britain and the United States, which is dominated by big capital and big business, the contradiction has not been transformed into confrontation after all. On the contrary, Europe's rising powers, dominated by statism, are engaged in a desperate struggle with each other.

Late-developing powers, such as Germany and Russia (including the Soviet Union, which pursued socialism in one country), were not only unable to unite in the world war, but instead fought each other and shed blood, becoming a stepping stone for the United States, the "chosen country" of international capitalism, to ascend to the throne of hegemony.

"What a tragedy!" Hersman let out a painful sigh, as if he had seen the noose around his neck.

"No! I can't let the evil US imperialism hang me...... I have to think of something! ”

As he muttered in Chinese, the carriage stopped suddenly, and then the elderly coachman shouted, "Mr. Captain, Königplatz has arrived." For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
