May, Wilhelmshaven.

The sky outside the window is hazy, and dark light scatters into the corridor and is printed on the moldy walls.

The black umbrella was hanging down, and the rain was connected intermittently in the corridor along the tip of the umbrella. The sound of leather boots echoed in the empty headquarters building, and the staff officer on duty in the staff duty room instantly woke up from his drowsy state.

"Here's here!"

The head boss of all the naval staff at William Naval Base, Major General Wolfgang Wegener, who had a strong aura, sat in the corner of the duty room with his legs crossed his head, and the frigid staff member near the door was still out of control. He bounced from his seat, tidying up his military appearance while greeting other staff members on duty.

The crowded staff duty room suddenly turned over. The cup was accidentally knocked over, the documents slipped to the floor, and the sound of the chair dragging was endless. The one-armed general was ignored. The staff in the duty room grabbed the documents and pretended to be serious, but their eyes were occasionally aimed at the door of the staff duty room with half-open door.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. The staff on duty of the Ocean Fleet, who had experienced many big scenes, found that their chests and backs were soaked in sweat, and even the "Heidi-Silem Prohibition" attached to the conspicuous position of the duty room was trembling continuously.

Strange, very strange!

This is the initial impression that Major Julius Usreber, the combat division of the Ocean Fleet General Staff, returned from vacation. From entering the gate of the Ocean Fleet Wilhelmshaven base, Julius Usreber found that the entire Ocean Fleet was in a state of turmoil. Although the naval soldiers guarding the base gate and colleagues in the headquarters were disguised well, Julius Usreber still found some clues from their expressions of probing their heads.

Julie Usreb was a student of the 1904th class of Keel Naval Academy. After graduation, he served in the Tiger gunboat for two years and was transferred to the Ocean Fleet Command until he was promoted to Major's Operations Staff Department of the General Staff. This was Julie Usreb's second long holiday. The major returned to the vineyards in the countryside of Bavaria and reunited with his family until yesterday when he boarded the train back to Wilhelmshaven.

Wilhelmshaven in May was soaked in the hazy mist and rain. Breathing the pungent smell of large-scale industries that are common in the city and the mold brought by endless light rain, Julius Leb, who was thinking about the fake, shook his wet black umbrella, ignored the trousers and shoes and socks wet by the rain, and accelerated his pace toward the duty room of the staff.

The Navigation Room of the General Staff, the Intelligence Analysis Room of the General Staff, the Operations Section of the General Staff, Julius Usreb walked through these departments one by one, and the General Staff Duty Room was right in front of him.

What are they... looking forward to?

Julius Leb stops, looks up at the half-open door of the duty room, slips his nose, and subconsciously turns his head to see the steel fleet in the mist and rain.

The drizzle was as thin as silk. It was like a charming girl covering William's city. Julie Usreber's eyes swept across the military dock, swept across the destroyers and torpedo boats anchored on the shore, swept across the breakwater further away, and finally frozen in the open waters of Jed Bay.

Outside the building is Jed Bay. The essence of the German Navy - battleships and battle cruisers - stationed quietly at the bay anchorage. Although they cannot see the towering command towers and main masts of the main battleships. They cannot see the majestic main guns and the hedgehog-like secondary guns, Julius Lebre can still smell the steel smell of the age of the big ships and giant guns. Further away, upstream of Jed Bay. The William Bridge across Jed Bay is there, looming in the story narrative of May misty rain.

Major Julius Lebbe couldn't figure it out. He laughed at himself and gently pushed open the door of the duty room.

"Here's here!"

The famous submarine king Otto Vedigan and the rising star of the submarine force, Carl Denitz, came out of the inconspicuous corner. Regardless of the complaints of others, they instantly squeezed several young staff members guarding the door behind them.

"I must give my old boss a bear hug!"

Otto Vedigan, who has a carefree personality, could not wash the piece once a month without anyone else. The leather vest that no longer emits a stimulating smell is always open, and she opens her hands to embrace the world with the person who pushed the door.

"Colin!"

Major Julius Usreb was startled by Colonel Otto Vedigan who was rushing towards him with red faces. The stereotyped Julius Usreb took a step back and raised his hand to salute Lord Vedigan, who was frightened by the Allies.

Deafening ridicule came from the duty room. Otto Vedigan retracted his extended arm in disappointment, feeling that he had lost face, so he glared at the "Rareless Ghost" fiercely

Julius Usreb looked at it and returned the greeting to the major in a half-hearted manner.

Poor Julius Lebble found anger in Vedigan's eyes, but he didn't know when he offended the king of the submarine. With the malicious eyes of more than a dozen people in the duty room, Julius Lebble actually felt guilty.

Did Colonel Vedigen know that I had slandered the boldness of the submarine force in my hometown in Bavaria? Julius Leb dared not look at Otto Vedigen, and walked towards the duty officer with a sad face, shrank his head and shrank.

The duty officer looked at Julius Usreb in anger, fetched the report from the half-foot-high document, found the Julius Usreb column, and marked the fake mark on it.

Julius Usreb was ignored. During the entire vacation, the duty officer did not even say a decent politeness or greeting. His eyes always skipped over the tall Julius Usreb, and landed behind him intentionally or unintentionally. The duty officer's "disgust" for him made the stereotyped Julius Usreb feel uncomfortable. Julius Usreb took a deep breath to confess to the duty officer's complaints he had made in front of his wife. At this time, the door of the duty room was pushed open again.

With a pilot's goggles on his forehead and a purple ribbon hanging around his neck, the handsome Navy Lieutenant Colonel walked in. Julius Lebbe knew that it was the famous Purple Baron of the Empire. In Germany, almost all the navy's machines that could fly were under his command system.

At this time, he should lead his treasure - the two "seaplane motherships" transformed by old merchant ships, in Helgolan Bay, to train. How could he appear in the base headquarters?

Julius Lebre is still wondering about Hanna Shaw's uninvited arrival, and Hanna Shaw has already fought at the duty room of the headquarters.

"Damn it, where did you hide your head?"

Hanna-Xiao refused to marche with his colleagues very rudely, and asked someone about whereabouts. Hanna-Xiao's actions angered the king of the submarines. So Otto-Verdigan swaggered on the road ahead of Hanna-Xiao, and said with a look:

"Yaaaa. Isn't this our Purple Baron?"

The submarine king's sarcasm echoed in the duty room. Major General Wolfgang Weigener just raised his eyelids slightly, then lowered his head and covered his navy cap on his face. Hanna Xiao was about to speak, but the submarine king took a step forward again, hugging the handsome Hanna Xiao, and lifted Hanna Xiao's left hand up in a blink of an eye.

"Sir Baron, aren't you determined to be the prince charming of the German girl? Why did you have an extra ring on your finger?!"

Thunderous laughter came from the duty room again.

"Go to death. You guinea pig in the can!" Hanna-Xiao was indeed angry and embarrassed.

The "bad fate" between Lieutenant Colonel Hannah Xiao and the Countess of the Lukner's family was a topic that the Germans had been in full bloom after dinner during the difficult war years. The chasing game of Countess Lukner's female pursuit of men once made the entire empire uneasy. The romantic Hannah Xiao Reference married Heidi Silem's fierce marriage life after marrying a fierce wife, resolutely asked Berlin soccer to pretend to be his girlfriend, and even said that he did not like women.

Hanna Shaw's clumsy tricks cannot stop the Countess from going crazy. Even the emperor who persuaded to make peace returned in a miserable state in front of the stubborn Count Lukner. In April 1917, the long-distance love run ended temporarily. Hanna Shaw, who was captured alive by the Countess of Wilhelmshaven, was forced to marry the Countess in a small church outside Wilhelmshaven.

The high-quality stocks in the minds of German girls were trapped by the powerful Countess. That night, the fairy tale ending of the Countess and the Purple Baron warmed the hearts of many Germans. I don’t know how many German girls’ fragile nerves were hurt.

Everyone in the duty room focused on Hanna-Xiao's left-handed ring. Even the one-armed general Weigena, who was pretending to behave, secretly turned his head and looked at the famous German Terminator ring with curiosity.

Hanna Xiao, whose scar was uncovered, was about to die, and wished to strangle Otto Vedigan, the big mouth, on the spot. Hanna Xiao's intention to kill was decided, and the king of the submarine was not defeated by the name of the assassin, and quickly escaped from Hanna Xiao's claws and headed straight to the gate of the duty room.

Otto Vedigan, who was in a panic, collided with Colonel Lauren who pushed the door in, and then the King of Submarine and King of Land War were rushed to the ground by the great Baron Purple.

Haha. It is the king of land warfare! It is the Marine Corps with more than 5,000 people in one hand. Because of Dogel's Sail Battle, he led a sailor squad to land on the British mainland to create miracles.

Julius Leb found that he could no longer close his mouth. Major General Wolfgang Wegener, who rarely appeared in the staff duty room during the day, spent more time on the submarines on the submarines than on the land, Hanna Shaw, the purple baron who should train in Helgoland Bay, and Lauren, the Supreme Commander of the Imperial Marines. Why did these famous guys appear in the staff duty room at the same time? Who are they waiting for?

The sound of footsteps came from the corridor again, the air solidified, and dozens of eyes focused on the half-open door of the duty room.

"General, you are finally back!"

"General, we are waiting for you all the time!"

"Long live, General!"

Cheers came from the corridor. Although the door was not open for the time being, Major Julius Lebbe already understood a little.

There is only one general who can make such a crazy naval force that advocates ideals and science.

"General Silame, are you back?!"

In May 1917, a conference that would profoundly influence Germany's future and the course of European wars was held in the factory of an abandoned factory in the Berlin Industrial Zone; in May 1917, Heidi Silem, the most influential figure in Germany in the 20th century, returned to the German headquarters, and his unsolved fate was irreversible to this pair of old friends who had known each other for more than 20 years.

This is the war between socialism and nationalism, and the most cruel and bloodiest political dispute in human history.
