    In February 1917, what Wang Weiyi least wanted to see happened.

    German Foreign Minister Alfred Zimmermann hatched an unusual plan to involve Mexico and Japan in the war against the United States.

    When the war broke out, British Naval Intelligence installed bugs on all undersea cables across the Atlantic.  On January 19, agents intercepted a German coded telegram that appeared to be a diplomatic communication.  The British cipherman handed the translated letter, signed by Zimmerman, to Admiral William Hall, the head of Naval Intelligence.  After Hall read it, he put it aside for the time being.  He knew that Berlin had a secret order to the German naval commanders on January 10, ordering them to start unrestricted submarine warfare on February 1. The concept of choosing the moment made him order Zimmermann's telegram to be withheld until the United States felt  until the full impact of this secret order.  On February 23, this letter was delivered to Washington.

    Zimmermann¡¯s letter was addressed to the German minister in Mexico, ordering him to seek the Mexican government as an anti-American military ally if the United States refused to accept unrestricted submarine warfare.  In addition to promising generous financial aid, it also promised to return Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona to Mexico.  To strengthen this alliance, the Mexican president was asked to induce Japan to abandon the Allies and attack the United States.

    It is not surprising that many U.S. officials initially suspected it was a hoax, but after careful examination of the original coded telegram, concluded that it was genuine.  The German foreign minister's recognition of Mexico as a military ally surprised Washington, a country torn apart by terrorism and teetering on the edge of chaos.

    Zimmerman¡¯s letter was published by the Associated Press on March 1 and made headlines around the world.

    Before the United States could recover its composure from these two directives¡ªunrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmermann conspiracy¡ªGermany had taken actions that directly led to war.

    On April 6, 1916, the United States declared war on Germany!

    The United States finally joins the war

    Encouraged by this news, in April 1917, the French army launched the "Spring Offensive" and launched a battle with the German army in the Reims-Soissons area!

    The most difficult time for Germany has arrived

    Sooner or later, the United States will join the war. This news does not cause any surprise to Wang Weiyi.  Germany did do a stupid thing. The top officials, including Kaiser Wilhelm II, did not accept the opinions of Wang Weiyi and Nicholas.

    Now, it¡¯s too late to regret

    Wang Weiyi was helpless and could only focus on the battlefield.

    On April 7, the day after the United States declared war on Germany, the French army launched a large-scale offensive.

    And the pride of Germany, the ace of the German Wehrmacht - the Skull Commandos were placed at the forefront!

    The order Wang Weiyi received was to hold the Cinoxi position under the cover of the troops on both wings.

    The French army's attack was overwhelming, but under the cover of artillery fire and tanks, the Skeleton Commandos held on to their positions tenaciously and calmly, never allowing the French army to advance a step.

    On the 7th, the French dropped more than 800 corpses in front of the Zinohi position

    They are facing the most elite of the German army: the Skeleton Commandos!  A force with light and heavy machine guns, mortars and tanks.

    On the battlefield, the dazzling skull battle flag was always fluttering in the wind. This battle flag was constantly stimulating the hearts of the French.

    It was not until the 8th that the French finally figured out the enemy opposite them, which was the German army that had caused trouble in Reims!

    General El Raffarin has met an old rival who has brought humiliation to him!

    Those damn Germans made such a fuss in Reims that they almost lost their face, especially General von Kirlock who was kidnapped back by them again. This made the very angry French military leaders give him the harshest punishment.  reprimand.

    Fortunately, in order to cover up their incompetence, the French did not publicize this matter. Instead, they announced to their own citizens that they had destroyed a German spy organization and successfully "protected" the safety of Reims.

    And all of this was jointly commanded by General El Raffarin, Colonel Gustav, and Major De Sade of the Intelligence Agency.

    General Raffarin was awarded the medal, Colonel Gustave was promoted to brigadier general, and Major de Sade was promoted to lieutenant colonel.

      Having suffered such a big loss, these generals who failed actually received awards and promotions. I am afraid that only the French can do such a thing.

    But what is the specific inside story?  These French people know it very well.

    Now, they have to face the abominable Ernst Brahm again. If they fail again, I am afraid that the top military officials will not be able to protect them anymore.

    "Brigadier General Gustave, it's up to you now." The livid-faced General El Raffarin looked at Gustave, who had already commanded the 79th Infantry Brigade of the French Army, and said: "The enemy is showing off his power there, leading  Take your troops and defeat them! I will direct all the artillery fire I can mobilize at the Zinoxi position, and you will launch an attack after the bombardment! You must take down that damn skull flag!"

    "Yes, General!" Gustav shouted: "I will bring Ernst Brahm to you!"

    He was also extremely resentful towards Ernst Brahm, the man he personally brought back to Reims. Now, he has become the laughing stock of those who know the inside story.

    Damn skull flag, damn skull baron

    "This is the best of times, and it is also the worst of times." Wang Weiyi flipped through the book "A Tale of Two Cities" in his hand and read this passage softly.

    The soldiers were all bored on the battlefield. Stike and Bonkrere were chatting there, Sean was cleaning his gun, and Adolf Hitler was still writing his diary there as always.

    Wang Weiyi can't quite understand what is written in "A Tale of Two Cities". Why would someone be willing to impersonate and die for his love rival? This is simply unreasonable.

    ¡°Kaden is such a fool,¡± Wang Weiyi muttered as he threw A Tale of Two Cities aside.

    Elena, who came to him, picked up the book. This was the second time she saw someone reading this book. The previous time was Bimon Ai, and it was this book he saw when he died.

    "Kaden is not a fool." Elena smiled and put the book aside: "He couldn't get Lucy, but he didn't want to see the person he loved in pain, so he never looked back and replaced the damned Darley.  To the gallows¡±

    "Well, you are right." Wang Weiyi would never argue about love with a woman: "How is the situation?"

    Elena straightened her expression: "Nicholas received accurate information from the French. What we are directly facing is the French elite 79th Infantry Brigade. Do you know who their commander is?"

    Wang Weiyi shook his head, and Elena smiled and said: "He is your old friend, Colonel Gustav. You must call him Brigadier General Gustav."

    Wang Weiyi was stunned when he heard this. What is going on?  The defeat of Reims made Gustave a brigadier general?

    After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out what was going on. He shook his head and shouted loudly: "Fritz, do you remember Gustav?"

    Manstein will never forget Gustav in his life, this damn fat man made him ride him for such a long distance!

    Ah, and the damn shameless Ernst Brahm!

    Manstein looked at Wang Weiyi with great contempt

    "Cinoxi is the throat area, which connects our left and right wings. Once we break through, the enemy can drive in unscrupulously." Wang Weiyi straightened his expression and called several of his captains to his side: "And when we decide to counterattack  At that time, this place will also become the first line of counterattack, so the French will definitely capture it at any cost. "

    "Let them come, our machine guns and mortars will teach the French a lesson." Guderian said with confidence.

    After re-adjusting the tasks of each unit, Adolf Hitler hurried over: "Lieutenant Colonel, the French are gathering."

    "Okay, officers, let's put on a good show for the French!" Wang Weiyi clapped his hands: "All for Germany!"

    "All for Germany!"

    On April 8, 1917, after thorough preparations, the French army mobilized the elite 79th Infantry Brigade and launched a new offensive against Cinohi under the cover of artillery fire.

    Elite versus elite!

    The artillery fire covered the Skeleton Commando's positions crazily, as if they wanted to cut them to the ground in one go.  Artillery shells continued to fall on the position, and waves of air continued to rise.

    The members of the commando team hid quietly in the trenches, letting the shells fly over their heads and then land outside the position.

    The machine gun is already waiting there.?, just waiting for the French attack to arrive.

    On the other side of the position, Gustav put down his telescope. He was very satisfied with the results of this shelling. It seemed that the Germans should have fled under such shelling, right?

    "There is no army that is not afraid of shelling," Gustave thought with the inherent thinking of French soldiers.

    "General, the troops can launch a charge."

    The words of his subordinates made Gustav tidy up his military uniform. He had to show his majesty in front of his subordinates: "Order, all troops go into attack, and the German positions must be recaptured today!"

    A sharp whistle sounded.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
