The predecessor of the German Empire was the Holy Roman Empire. Even though the Germans had always respected history and dared to face up to history, the disasters and the grief consequences of the Holy Roman Empire were so painful that the Germans regarded it as a terrible nightmare and rarely mentioned it.

The Holy Roman Empire was an absolute freak. It did not conform to any traditional definition in political science, neither Roman blood nor the favor of the Holy Vatican. It had an emperor but was definitely not an empire. Religiously and culturally, the Holy Roman Empire was a powerful country. The ancient tradition was a powerful adhesive. The loose federation composed of many kingdoms, bishop territory, free city and many small rulers held the ancient covenant of "loyalty" to the emperor far away in Vienna.

The Holy Roman Empire is just a loose collection, not a central collection, state. Because of this, the Rhine River with clear water, white sand, vast and rich plains, the valley filled with wine fragrance, and the foothills of singing and beautiful girls everywhere. On this magnificent land of Germany, war plots are staged every moment: in peacetime, it acts as a chessboard for the game between the great powers, and in wartime it is

The battlefield of fighting between the great powers was allowed to be seized by the Britannians, Gauls, Spaniards and Italians. In the empire, powerful vassals such as Prussia, the Netherlands, Bavaria, Saxony and Austria were still fighting endlessly. That period was one of the darkest times for the German nation, so that the passionate young man Hoffman von Fales Leben wrote in tears this poem "Germany, Germany is above everything else!"

Fales Leben expressed the German desire for unity in his magnificent poems. In 1871, wearing an army uniform full of medals, holding the hilt of the sword in his left hand and a feather-in-the-right hand, the German army was stationed in the Palace of Marvelsailles. The young German Empire was established in the voice of French girls, and the German nation that had split for centuries finally achieved unity.

The unification that the Germans dream of was finally realized, but the story has not ended, and the contradictions between nationalism and grand unification have not ended there, and many people still insist on the loose confederacy system. Perhaps it was because of the Germans that had split for too long, or perhaps it was because of the unconfidence that the Germans felt almost religiously fanatical paranoid about unity.

Of course, Germany was not a monolithic part. At that time, the poor and backward East Prussia and the economically developed West Prussia, the emerging bourgeoisie and the conservative Junker nobles, the Hohenzollern dynasty, the Junker conservatives and the largest party in parliament - society - democracy - party, the emerging industrial and commercial lords and working class, the Junker nobles and peasants had conflicts. Specifically, the German army would have had disputes between the army and the navy, and the aristocrats and civilians.

The Germans' modern naval began relatively late, and its previous naval commanders were even from the army. The German army and naval disputes were not as thrilling as the Japanese army and naval forces. However, with the rise of a group of young naval officers led by Colonel Tirpitz and the ascension of the paranoid William II, the conflicts between the German army and navy began to rise faintly.

The German Army was invincible across the European continent, but this honor belonged to the Junker nobles. Within the Imperial Army, nobles were more likely to be favored by superiors than civilians. They studied in military academy and promoted positions, while civilians were a little difficult to move forward. The navy was different. The sea was fair, and the sea unscrupulously showed its rage and anger. They would never be able to make a fuss just because the other party was Junker nobles. Since ancient times, only the strongest and most team-oriented people could conquer the sea. Moreover, the navy is a new thing for the army. It does not have so many conservative unspoken rules like the Imperial Army. Within the navy, the title of aristocrat can only represent personal glory and does not have much practical use. Personal strength and team quality are the only criterion for promotion. The reason why Wang Heidi, who was born in the lower district of Kiel, chose the navy rather than the army was based on this consideration.

It is precisely because within the navy, the nobles and civilians are not one-sided like the Imperial Army, but are evenly matched, which means that under the appearance of a harmonious navy, the competition and competition between the nobles and civilians are even more intense. This vaguely smell of gunpowder was seen by Wang Heidi on the first day of school.

Oden's disdain and contempt for Wang Heidi was almost innate. Wang Heidi and Oden were in the same school building, but Oden never gave Wang Heidi a good face. After the onshore military training began, Oden targeted Wang Heidi everywhere, trying his best to prove that he ranked third in the entrance exam was just an accident.

Oden succeeded, and it turned out that Oden was a naval genius that was rare in ten years. In the first three weeks of land military training, Oden's superb gun knowledge, obedience to discipline, and adaptability to the sea made the instructors praise it, making other naval cadets ashamed. His dazzling glory was hard to reach even Raider, let alone Wang Heidi, who was not qualified and half-hearted.

"Aristocrats and civilians?" Wang Heidi asked back: "Theory of bloodline?"

The summer in Germany is quite hot, the hot sun burns the earth, and the dry wind blows across the playground, not bringing a hint of coolness or blowing a little impetuousness. There are about 40 people standing in the playground, arranged in a square formation under the scorching sun. Wang Heidi stands at the end of the team wearing a dark naval cadet uniform that he has cursed thousands of times. His legs seem to be filled with lead, and he can't stand straight, and he keeps trembling. When he looks up, he feels dark in front of his eyes.

Wang Heidi regrets it again. He has read countless military time travel novels and occasionally browsed "Classic of Hundred Battles". Wang Heidi claims to be romantic and proud, thinking that with his time traveler's ability to deceive and plagiarize, he can call the wind and rain at the Kiel Naval Academy. However, practice has proved that Wang Heidi, who is very ambitious and talented, cannot play with this profound and difficult art of time travel. Even if he luckily gets into the navy, he will be able to return to his original form after less than three weeks of military training.

During the military training in college in his previous life, Wang Heidi even tried to harm himself to avoid the wind and sun that month, but she didn't want to be unhappy with the retribution of cause and effect, and had to be trained after traveling through time. Wang Heidi has never been a person with firm will. The boring queue training, bloody and violent shooting training, repeated combat training and frustrated and cowardly ship service training have long wiped out the freshness and enthusiasm of the new arrival of the post-90s college students, leaving only crying for their parents and dying.

"A person lives a face, a tree lives a skin! A real man can't lose his temper!" Wang Heidi's mouth was dry and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty. He glanced at Bernhard-Von-Oden, who was standing at the front of his head, spat secretly, gritted his teeth and kept his body firmly and tried his best to maintain his military posture: "Wang Heidi, take out the momentum you used to sleeplessly in the arcade for three consecutive days, and show the shameless style of chasing your girlfriend back then, and don't faint..."

Major Stenzell, a naval instructor at the Keel Naval Academy, walked back and forth with a thick teaching log, correcting the students' irregular movements while flipping through the teaching log.

"The 15th day of the 94th session of the Naval Craftsmen's Land Military Basic Training, Subject: the fifth rifle shooting and gun maintenance training. All forty-one cadets were completed. Bernhard von Oden from Bavaria and Erich Raider from Hamburg performed very well, hitting all ten shots, and Heidi Silem from Killand..."

Light weapons shooting, firearm knowledge and firearm maintenance training are in charge of Captain Alfresci, a firearm instructor. Seeing this, Stenzell couldn't help but turn his head and look at Wang Heidi, frowned and murmured: "Average 2 of 10 shots during the five rifle shooting training, and five gun maintenance trainings damaged a total of four rifles, one pistol. Cough, even if the light weapons shooting training and firearm maintenance training in our Kiel Hai School are not as professional as the Army, it is not going to teach this kind of thing..."

Just as Stenzel cursed quietly, Heidi Silem, who could not stand the torture of the scorching sun and heat, fell to the ground again. With the laughter of the students, Wang Heidi blushed and said nothing. He supported himself on the hot hard land playground. After exploring for a long time, he got up. Wang Heidi shook his head and crawled into the team, his face pale, looking like he had to intake but not vent.

Major Stenzel is responsible for the queue training and ship service training for new students. He considers himself a dedicated teacher, trying his best to avoid favoritism and prejudice against certain students, and treats everyone with a positive and tolerant attitude. But whenever he faces Heidi Silem, Stenzel can't help but get angry and "praise" Heidi Silem's clumsy performance in various evil languages, and his elm head after realizing it.

"Oden, tell me what is the noblest quality of the German army!" Stenzer put away the teaching log, his eyes were cold, and a word suddenly appeared.

"Report to the instructor!" Oden walked out of the queue in a straight line, and his tough eyes swept away the sickly Wang Heidi with contempt, straightening his body and said with great energy: "Absolute obedience, loyalty, brave and courageous, and never give up!"

"Silem, basic training is indeed very difficult and boring, but why can everyone grit their teeth and hold on? Only you can complain and persevere?" Major Stenzel slowly walked to Wang Heidi, and the soldier's cold eyes swept across his dark face and mocked: "Pires Ferdinand philosophy teacher has asked the principal more than once to accept you as his closed disciple and take you to the University of Berlin for further studies. Silemem, I am grateful to the teacher Piriels Ferdinand for poaching from the bottom of my heart. I also think your future is not in the Navy, but should be in the University of Berlin!"

"Report to the teacher Stenzel!" Wang Heidi closed his heels together to salute instructor Stenzel, lowered his head and said timidly: "The University of Berlin will definitely not want me..."

Stenzel was determined to fool this military idiot, the scum of the military academy. He changed his previous cold and serious image and encouraged him: "Believe in Mr. Piriels Ferdinand's ability, he will definitely send you to the University of Berlin."

"Because I have rejected the University of Berlin..."

"Oh, God, you crazy!" Stenzel was so angry that he was almost crazy about Heidi Silem. His face turned pale and he clenched his fists and said fiercely: "No matter what, I must drive you out of the navy! You are not a navy material at all, and you are not worthy of wearing this dress!"

In fact, Wang Heidi also wanted to escape from the dark cage of Kil Hai School. The training of Kil Hai School far exceeded Wang Heidi's psychological expectations. Wang Heidi fainted on the first day of the class training. Redel sprinkled water and pinched people, and it took a long time to wake him up. Wang Heidi broke a Mauser rifle for the first gun maintenance training, which made the gun custodian chase the school. The first ship service training, the sail training ship had spit out before leaving the dock. Not only did he not practice service, but he had to let others take care of him. Light weapon shooting training, Oden scored eight of eight in 10 shots, Redel scored seven in 10 shots, and Wang Heidi couldn't afford to get up after firing the first shot, covering his right shoulder and howled his ribs broke.

The Celestial Empire had been peaceful for a long time in the past life, and the factors that were brave and fierce in the Celestial Empire had long been wiped out by the commercial tide. Although Wang Heidi was wearing a white coat, he still advocated the mean in his bones. By the time Wang Heidi could deeply appreciate the two heavy terms "soldier", the University of Berlin had already started school, and Wang Heidi had already boarded the navy's pirate ship.

Catherine, Anne, and people in the lower district of Kiel knew that Wang Heidi gave up the high-ranking University of Berlin and chose the Kiel Naval Academy. Many people moved to the bench to wait for Wang Heidi's dirty face. For their stubbornness and to achieve their ideals, Wang Heidi could only continue to hold on.

The queue training ended early. Stenzell walked towards the principal's office with a thick teaching log. The civilian students walked past Wang Heidi, and they all held their eyes that they could not stand on the wall. The noble students surrounded him and sarcastically mocked Wang Heidi.

"Silem, seeing you crying, are you worried that Stenzel will complain to the principal and expel you from school?" Herman came over and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to worry, because you can't pass the end of the month. Either Stenzel drove you out, or you can't pass the end of the month and be expelled, and you'll be the same as you go..."

"Hermann, instead of worrying about whether I will be fired, it is better to worry about what other fools you will make in the oceanography class tomorrow..." Although the otaku is not good at speaking, he is young and energetic after all, and he is definitely not a submissive temper.

"Herman, there is no need to argue with this guy who doesn't know anything." Herman wanted to say something, so Oden stood up and shook his head and pulled Herman away. When Oden spoke, he didn't look at Wang Heidi from beginning to end. The arrogance and disdain were completely written on his face.

"I really don't know how he entered the military academy. The existence of Heidi Sileme is the greatest shame for our Keel Military Academy." Hermann muttered as he walked towards the school building.

Upon hearing this, Oden couldn't help but turn his head and look at Wang Heidi, frowned and said to himself: "The second place in the entrance examination should not be of this level. Maybe he is really not suitable for the Navy..."

"Silem, are you okay?" Redel walked over, put his hands on his hips and looked disappointed.

"The reason why Stenzel was angry was not because I guessed the process and ending of the Far East War, but he didn't guess correctly, so he was unhappy and was waiting for an opportunity to retaliate against me." When it came to Stenzel, Wang Heidi was so angry that he was angry. Since the first day of school, the guy who couldn't afford to lose had targeted Wang Heidi and magnified Wang Heidi's mistakes to the point that everyone in the military academy knew that there was a military incompetent man named Heidi Sileme.

"Whether Stenzel is targeting you specifically, you should be more serious in training." Raidel's expression was very serious and asked, "Silem, do you know Martin Luther?"

"Well, a famous black American." Wang Heidi thought without hesitation about the American who was trying hard to advocate "I have a dream."

"There are Martin Luthers in the United States?" Redel's solemn expression relaxed slightly, and then he became tense again. "I'm talking about Martin Luther of Germany."

"The Protestant founder who is known as the 'man who cuts open Europe'?" Wang Heidi remembered that there was a history test question on the Tim Kleger Middle School graduation exam not long ago about Martin Luther, the founder of the Protestant Lutheran Christian. Wang Heidi hesitated.

Redell nodded and continued, "We all know the glory of Martin Luther, but do you know the efforts he has put in for this? In 1488, Martin Luther first studied at a local fraternity church school in Mansfield, and then in 1497, he was sent to the "Cathedral School" in Madberg, and a year later he transferred to the Franciscan monastery in Essenach to continue his studies.15

In 2002, Martin Luther graduated from Erbitt University, and in 1505, he graduated from Erbud University in Thuringia, obtained a bachelor's degree in literature and a doctorate. Then he followed his father's order to study law. In July 1505, Martin Luther joined the Augustine Monastery in Erfurt and became a monk. By 1507, Martin Luther, who was only 24 years old, was already a priest of the church."

"Silem, I don't deny that you are very talented, but if you want to stay in the Naval Academy and gain a foothold in the fiercely competitive navy, you still need to have more patience and perseverance in training. Don't say no to yourself when you encounter difficulties, find a way for yourself, and shout to withdraw from the navy!" Redel's voice became excited and he said persistently: "Silem, because we are civilians, without background, no power, and are despised by the nobles, we must succeed, and we should succeed!";
