Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    What Wang Weiyi has to do now is just to do what he is doing. He has no ability to change the policies formulated by those countries.

    Starting from January 1917, this was a relatively comfortable period. The battlefield was silent, and the main task of the Skeleton Commandos was training.

    In mid-January, Baron Ernst Alexander von Brehm was invited by His Majesty the German Emperor to Berlin to attend the 58th birthday party of Wilhelm II held on January 27.

    The scale of this event is completely different from that of Prince Joachim¡¯s birthday.

    The war has been going on for more than two years, and the entire Germany has turned into a high-speed war machine. Appropriate celebrations can relieve the anxiety and nervousness of the Germans and better allow them to devote themselves to the war.

    The Kaiser¡¯s birthday is obviously a good opportunity

    So far, Wilhelm II is still supported by the vast majority of Germans, and those who oppose him account for a very small proportion.

    Especially Lieutenant Colonel Ernst Brahm and his Skeleton Commando, the consecutive victories they achieved on the front line were infinitely amplified by German public opinion, which also enhanced the already high morale of the Germans.

    In Berlin, the names and achievements of two people are constantly being recited. One is the holy German Emperor Wilhelm II, and the other is Baron Alexson.

    The name of St. Ernst also spread to Berlin!

    Young people and children began to wear those imitation skull badges as a matter of pride. They gathered together for a parade and chanted the names of Kaiser Wilhelm II and Baron Skeleton to express their support for Germany to carry out the war to the end.  Determination!

    Large posters also appeared on the streets.

    Sitting on the throne, dressed in military uniform and with a long sword in his hand, the majestic person is William II.  Standing on his left and right were Field Marshal Hindenburg and General Ludendorff.

    In front of these three people was a young German officer.  His face was firm, and his eyes seemed to be looking ahead. He held a command knife tightly in his hand, ready to unsheath it at any time.  There are a bunch of medals pinned to his military uniform:

    The Iron Cross First Class, the Blue Marx Medal, and the most eye-catching thing is the badge worn on his collar:

    Skull badge!

    That¡¯s Baron Ernst Alexson von Brahm!

    This lieutenant colonel in the German army actually appeared on the same poster as the German emperor, marshal, and first-level general.

    Wang Weiyi¡¯s personal reputation in Germany has reached a new height:

    In the name of Ernst Brahm!

    Every young man who passes under this poster will stretch out his right arm, raise his hands in a salute, and then shout "Hey, Germany!"

    It is said that on the front line, this is what St. Ernst and his Skeleton Commandos did.

    Erina, Manstein, and Richthofen were all nobles. They were also invited by His Majesty the Emperor and came to Berlin with Ernst.

    They were surprised by the fanatical atmosphere in Berlin.

    "If there is a decisive battle now, I believe the final winner will be Germany." Manstein couldn't help but murmured.

    ¡°No matter when there is a decisive battle, the final winner will definitely be Germany!¡± Richthofen¡¯s will was far firmer than that of his good friend.

    Wang Weiyi did not participate in their discussion.  I always said before that this country that launched two world wars in succession was persevering, united and unyielding, so it was able to challenge the world twice on its own.  But only by experiencing it personally can you truly feel all of this.

    He believes that if one day the enemy reaches Berlin, everyone in this city will take up arms and fight to the end

    "Ernst, where do you live?" Elena asked.

    Before Wang Weiyi could answer, Richthofen had already said: "Hey, Ernst, come live at my place. I have enough rooms. You can choose whatever you want."

    Manstein also extended such an invitation to him.

    "Ah, I'd better stay at the Berlin Grand Hotel, then I'm familiar with it." Wang Weiyi thought for a while and politely declined their offer.

    "Whether it's Elina, Manstein, or Richthofen, they are all very large families. Being a stranger in such a family always brings inconveniences of one kind or another.

    "Ernst, you also have a manor. You need to clean it up sometime." Elena smiled and said: "A baron came to Berlin and had his own manor.It is not a good reputation to spread the word about always staying in a hotel when you are not staying there.  "

    Wang Weiyi rubbed his nose and smiled at his own manor?  forget it.  After William II gave the manor to himself, he once took a look at it. Because no one had cleaned it for too long, it was already overgrown with weeds.

    ¡°Besides, I will leave this era sooner or later. Why should I bother to organize a manor?

    After saying goodbye to his friends, Wang Weiyi came to the Berlin Grand Hotel. The manager here had long recognized him. When he saw Baron Alexon arriving, he personally greeted him: "Baron Alexon, welcome to come here again. I will  We are honored to prepare the most comfortable and luxurious rooms for you to stay in. We hope you will enjoy your stay here. ¡±

    After Wang Weiyi expressed his gratitude, he came to the room specially prepared for himself. It was indeed a luxurious and comfortable room.

    After sending the manager away and closing the door, Xiao Ling¡¯s voice came over immediately: ¡°Is there anything I can say to thank you for coming to Berlin again, Baron Alexon?¡±

    "Come on." Wang Weiyi sat down and raised his feet comfortably: "The atmosphere is really fanatical. From the moment I entered Berlin, I could feel that Germany was preparing for the final decisive battle at any time."

    "You have a great contribution to this, Rambler." Xiao Ling's tone of voice did not seem to be too polite: "If it weren't for your miraculous performances on the battlefield, the entire Berlin and even the entire Germany would not have been plunged into  In an atmosphere of war fever"

    "Hey, you have some credit for this." Wang Weiyi said jokingly.

    Xiao Ling was too lazy to discuss this issue with him.

    Wang Weiyi also turned to the topic: "Xiao Ling, there are four million Reichsmarks in the base now. We have to find a way to use this huge sum of money, otherwise once the war is over, these Reichsmarks will rapidly depreciate significantly.  , I can¡¯t find anyone I can trust to help me manage this huge sum of money.¡±

    "There is someone you can consider." Xiao Ling quickly said: "Hermione Wittgenstein"

    "Who is this person? Why have I never heard of him?" Wang Weiyi was a little curious.

    "That's because you are ignorant," Xiao Ling maintained his usual contempt for Wang Weiyi: "That is the eldest daughter of the Wittgenstein family. Who is the richest person in the world? Not Bill Gates or Buffett of our time.  They are not really the richest, but the Rothschilds and the Wittgensteins.¡±

    Wang Weiyi nodded in understanding.

    He knew the Rothschild family, but the Wittgenstein family was very unfamiliar.

    "When they were called the Sixth Empire of Europe, the United States had not yet been founded. Ah, and when they paid Kolchak and Denikin to fight Lenin, not a single country in Europe was there.  Help them financially, they are a family fighting against Lenin."

    Wang Weiyi took a breath of air, a family fighting against a huge state power?  God, what kind of family is this?

    "I can't describe the wealth of this family in words at all, but for hundreds of years no family has been able to surpass them in wealth, not even the Rothschilds! Carl Wittgenstein, who brought their family to glory, was born  In Germany, he later moved to Austria and quickly became the richest man in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which the Rothschild family could only hold back.¡±

    Xiao Ling said slowly: "Karl has a very famous son, Ludwig Wittgenstein, who is a thinker and philosopher. This man is three-quarters Jewish. It is said that Hitler hated him with all his heart. Even  Some people speculate that he was the trigger that caused Hitler to carry out the Holocaust against the Jews."

    Wang Weiyi is not surprised by this, but feels a little weird.

    Judging from Hitler's previous performance, especially after the Hall and Steven incidents, Hitler already hated the Jews very much.

    Could it be that Ludwig Wittgenstein was the trigger for Hitler to massacre the Jews, and he was the inducement?

    This seems a bit ridiculous when you think about it.

    "It is a pity that most of Karl's children do not want to inherit his business and do business. Some are philosophers, some are artists, and some died very early. And among those living children, several are suicidal.  The only person who can inherit the huge Wittgenstein family estate is Carl's eldest daughter Hermione."

    Xiao Ling's words rang in Wang Weiyi's ears: "After Carl's death, Hermione took charge of a huge industry. She is forty-two years old and has done an outstanding job. In World War II, after Germany annexed Austria, it was Hermione who  Min decisively transferred the industry to the UK and protected Wittgenstein.Family, I suggest that you invest four million Reich Marks to cooperate with Hermione.  "

    "Is she trustworthy?"

    ¡°Completely trustworthy, integrity, honor, perseverance, and trustworthiness are the qualities used in men that can be applied to her.¡±

    "Where should I find her?"

    ¡°She also received an invitation from William II and is now in Berlin, living in Countess Leonie¡¯s home.¡±

    Wang Weiyi couldn't help but touch his nose when he heard this. It was Countess Leoni again.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
