Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    November 6, 1916, 1 p.m.

    When Marquis Felix of Yorkso reopened the court, a new head-to-head confrontation between the two sides began.

    The disadvantage in the morning had already made Marklin feel a crisis, and he decided not to wait anymore, but to take the initiative.  After Felix announced the start, Marklin went directly to the topic:

    "The miracle of the Somme may have given us some misunderstandings. I hope Baron Alexon will not take it to heart. I am also willing to apologize for this However, we are now filing charges against Baron Alexon.  It¡¯s his treason! He let go of a person close to the enemy¡¯s commander and let go of a high-ranking enemy general!¡±

    He shouted with a strong voice, as if he wanted to vent all his anger in the morning, and as if shouting like this could convict the other party.

    Wang Weiyi listened quietly. He began to believe that it was true that outstanding lawyers in Germany were very rare in this era. With Marklin's performance, how could he nail himself to the pillar of shame?

    For a full twenty minutes, Marklin was seen performing there, and there was not a single protest or rebuttal from Wang Weiyi's side.

    Finally, Marklin finished what he should say, and then said respectfully to Felix: "Dear Marquis of Yorkso, there is no doubt that Baron Alexson's treason is established, and I implore you to convict him.  , as to whether he should be exiled or hanged will depend entirely on your ruling"

    Felix¡¯s eyes fell on Wang Weiyi: ¡°Baron Alexon, do you admit to these charges?¡±

    "No, I refuse to admit these false accusations!" Wang Weiyi stood up.

    Everyone¡¯s attention was focused on him, and everyone knew:

    Baron Ernst Alexson von Brahm is ready to defend himself.

    He has been silent for too long, now it¡¯s time for him to take action!

    Felix nodded: "In view of your noble status, I allow you to speak without restriction, defend yourself and fight for all your rights."

    Wang Weiyi smiled. His status as a noble was indeed good, which meant that he could say whatever he wanted without worrying about being interrupted.

    "I let go of a British-Chinese man named Rosen. I have never denied this" Wang Weiyi's opening remarks were so candid that people were a little surprised, but he immediately said to Felix: "  The noble Marquis of Yorkso, may I ask you a question?¡±

    "I think you should ask the other party's lawyer or witness."

    Wang Weiyi smiled and said: "Yes, but they are not qualified. Only the 'Sword of Justice' can answer."

    There was laughter in the auditorium, and Marklin and Nicholas looked very ugly.  Ernst actually humiliated them so nakedly in France?

    Felix pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly.

    Wang Weiyi's tone was unusually calm: "If you duel with your enemy and the opponent is seriously injured, will you continue to take his life? Please note that this enemy is a person you hate very much, the noble Marquis of Yorkso  grown ups."

    Felix was silent there for a long time, and then said: "This question is difficult to answer. If I really hate the other person so much, then from the bottom of my heart I want to kill him. But in fact, I will spare him.  I think every honest gentleman with a fair and compassionate heart would do that."

    "Thank you, the distinguished Marquis of Yorkso." Wang Weiyi said calmly: "I think everyone here will make the same choice as the Marquis. Because the Germans must  More noble than any of our enemies"

    Most of the Germans who were listening had a satisfied smile on their faces. Ernst¡¯s words made them feel that they are so proud to be Germans.

    "And what I do is just what every German would do. Justice, compassion, and integrity." Wang Weiyi finally told everyone present what he really wanted to say word by word:

    "That day, after we captured the enemy's position, we captured a large number of British people, including Lieutenant Colonel Rosen. This accusation against me is not wrong. But Colonel Nicholas seems to have deliberately ignored the fact that  At that time, one of Lieutenant Colonel Rosen's arms had been blown off by powerful German artillery fire"

    There were exclamations, and Nicholas's face became even more ugly.

    "Quiet, please be quiet!" Felix asked everyone to be quiet.Come down: "Baron Alexon, you can continue."

    "Yes." Wang Weiyi continued calmly and calmly: "The troops I commanded at that time, due to the fast assault speed, had long been far away from our large troops. There were no field hospitals around, and we only had one doctor. And the one closest to us,  But it was a British field hospital! Lieutenant Colonel Rosen was seriously injured, so I had to face two choices at that time. One was to fulfill my duty as a soldier and continue to treat him as a prisoner. Then there was no doubt that he would suffer because he could not get it.  The other option was to do what every decent German would do and let him go and send him and some of the seriously wounded back to the British"

    He paused: "I chose the latter. If it is a crime to present the best qualities of Germans in front of the enemy, then even if the court hangs me now, I will have no complaints"

    "Do you have any witnesses, Baron Alexon?" Felix reminded him.

    ¡°Everyone who fought with me can vouch for me¡±

    Just as Wang Weiyi was about to continue speaking, two voices came from the auditorium: "The distinguished Marquis of Yorkso, we can also vouch for him."

    Wang Weiyi looked behind him, and what he saw was Sergeant Sproul and Pastor Ackerson, the military doctors who had gone to the position with him that day!

    Why are they here?

    "Witnesses, please come forward." Felix asked them to go to the witness stand: "Please state your identities."

    "Sergeant Sproul, medic of the Supplementary Battalion of the 16th Bavarian Infantry Regiment."

    "I am Army Chaplain Exon."

    "Okay, tell me what you saw then."

    Sergeant Sprow was the first to say: "I can prove that the British lieutenant colonel named Rosen was very seriously injured at that time, and it was me who reminded Captain Ernst that we lacked the necessary medical conditions. If the prisoners cannot receive timely treatment,  , I¡¯m afraid it will be difficult for them to continue to survive.¡±
