    The countess didn't say much, she just greeted Wang Weiyi and then extended an invitation to him to visit her manor when he had time.

    Wang Weiyi agreed from a polite point of view.

    Elena seemed very unhappy on the side. Maybe the appearance of the countess posed some threat to her heart.

    But Wang Weiyi can't take care of such things.

    Wilhelm II came over with his son Prince Joachim and chatted with Wang Weiyi about the situation on the front line. Prince Joachim, in addition to briefly speaking to Ernst Alexson von Brahm,  Except for greetings, there was no more words.

    No wonder, he was supposed to be the protagonist of this banquet, but all his limelight was taken away by the officers headed by Wang Weiyi. Almost everyone ignored the prince's existence. No wonder he was depressed.  .

    Finally, he found an opportunity. His Highness the Prince invited Elina to dance with him, but Elina politely refused him because she was not feeling well.

    It can be seen that Elena does not particularly appreciate Prince Joachim

    Wang Weiyi suddenly noticed that Prince Joachim looked at him fiercely.  Wang Weiyi can completely understand such a look. The Prince's birthday as the protagonist was completely robbed of the limelight, and Elina's attitude will also make the Prince angry.

    However, Wang Weiyi did not want to offend Joachim at this time. After all, he was a prince. If he was causing trouble behind his back, even his title of baron would not be able to prevent him from disaster.

    ¡°His Royal Highness Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm Victor August Ernst, Commander-in-Chief of the German Fifth Army, has arrived!¡±

    With this voice, August, the eldest son of William II, the Crown Prince of Germany, and who enjoys great reputation in Germany, strode in.

    The respect and love the Germans have for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is no less than that of his father, Wilhelm II.  Especially after the Ardennes victory, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's reputation has reached a peak.

    Enthusiastic applause rang out again, mixed with cheers.  August smiled and raised his hands to greet his admirers, then walked up to Wilhelm II and expressed his greetings to his father.

    Then, he gently hugged his brother Prince Joachim, congratulated him on his birthday, and then brought a pistol with an ivory handle and handed it to his brother as his birthday gift.

    This was captured from the British.

    Does your name also have Ernst in it?  However, the identity of this "Ernst" is completely different from that of Wang Weiyi's "Ernst".

    "Ernst Brahm." August suddenly said to Wang Weiyi with a serious face: "Is it Ernst Brahm, the creator of the miracle on the Somme?"

    "Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Wang Weiyi nodded, feeling a little uneasy.

    "Ha, the pride of Germany!" August suddenly put away his serious face, and actually hugged Wang Weiyi vigorously in front of everyone, and then relaxed: "I received a letter from His Majesty on the way here.  , he told me that he planned to appoint you as a baron. I think that the status of a baron is completely unworthy of your military exploits. "

    This is a person who doesn¡¯t like to hide his emotions. His father, William II, obviously appreciates his son¡¯s character very much and is always looking at him with a smile.  Although Prince Joachim also had a smile on his face, he looked a little embarrassed.

    "You really should join my Fifth Army." August waved his arm vigorously: "Although the Fifth Army suffered some losses in Verdun, with our tenacious spirit, we can quickly  Brace yourself from failure!¡±

    Wang Weiyi listened to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with a smile.

    The Fifth Army was called "Crown Prince Wilhelm's Army" because of August's presence, and followed Erich von Falkenhayn in the Battle of Verdun.  Although the battle failed, Augustus still received many honors.  Officers in this group army are promoted very quickly.

    But Wang Weiyi doesn¡¯t want to take advantage of this.

    "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is always so energetic." Marshal Hindenburg and General Ludendorff came over. Hindenburg said with a smile: "We now have two Ernsts, one is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.  , One is Baron Alexson. When we launch an all-out attack again, Germany with two Ernsts will be invincible."

    August's face suddenly became a little ugly, but he was still not used to hiding any of his thoughts: "Marshal Hindenburg, General Ludendorff, I think the war should not continue.  "

      The people around me were suddenly at a loss.

    Wang Weiyi knew exactly what was going on.

    Although Auguste was a fanatical militarist, after the Battle of Verdun, he became a supporter of peace and believed that this meaningless war in his opinion should be ended as soon as possible.

    But now that these words came out of his mouth, it was difficult for the people around him to react.

    "Too many people have died." August didn't take into account the feelings of others at all: "In the Ardennes and Verdun, I saw countless outstanding German soldiers die, but what did we get? We didn't  To get the benefits we wanted before the war, we were forced to support it even in the Somme. A large number of Germans were dying every day, and our national strength was being depleted little by little. If this continues, the entire Germany will fall into a state of decline.  into a terrible abyss.¡±

    The faces of William II, Hindenburg, Ludendorff and others darkened.

    It is unimaginable that a German Crown Prince would say such a thing.  If it had been anyone else, he would have been arrested on charges of shaking military morale.

    "That's enough, August." Even though William II liked his son, he said with a straight face: "Don't you know that we achieved a great victory on the Somme?"

    August was not afraid of his father at all: "But on what basis is such a great victory based? Thousands of people died, and what we only restored was the position we lost before. Father, I am not afraid of war. If  If necessary, I can carry a gun to fight and die today, but what I am thinking about is the future of Germany!¡±

    "Go back to your Fifth Army." William II had to maintain the dignity of Marshal Hindenburg and General Ludendorff as commanders of the German army. He had to rebuke his son loudly: "There is no order from me.  , you are not allowed to come to Berlin again before the war is over!¡±

    "Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your order!" August said loudly. When he was about to leave, he suddenly said to Wang Weiyi:

    "Baron Alexon, I sincerely look forward to fighting alongside you on the battlefield!"
