After Christmas, half a month before the start of the Royal Army Academy, Chen Tian decided to visit the most famous person in the 19th century-the former Prime Minister Bismarck. Bismarck has been idle in his home in a small town west of Berlin since he stepped down in 1890. Chen Tian remembers that the old man will hang up in about two years. He has not had the opportunity to chat with this legendary strongman!
The Bismarck's manor is very large. Under the leadership of the servant, Chen Tian went through a long corridor to a remote study. Inside the study, a gray-haired old man was sitting on a large back chair, his eyes closed in contemplation.
"Master, Prince William's Hall is down! Master..."
"Oh, Your Highness! You're here!" Bismarck slowly opened his eyes and said slowly: "It's been years, Your Highness has grown so big! Come, sit!"
"Hello, Prime Minister!" Chen Tian respectfully stood aside.
"Oh, Your Highness, I'm not a Prime Minister anymore! Ha ha! Why do you think of me as an old man!"
"Sir Prime Minister, I wanted to come to ask you some questions early, but I never had a chance!"
"Oh, Your Royal Highness, I have not been participating in political affairs for a long time. I am old and just want to spend my old age well!"
"But, I want to know what you think about the future of Germany?"
"Even a black bear, it is difficult to deal with a group of wolves. Germany now needs to cultivate itself, develop its economy, and need a long-term stable and peaceful environment!" Bismarck closed his eyes quietly, and finally said: "What I can say is That's it, it's up to His Highness to think about the rest!"
After saying goodbye to Bismarck, Chen Tian has been silently pondering his words. Why is this man, who is known worldwide for advocating the use of force to solve problems, become a pacifist in his later years? Could he covet the Nobel Peace Prize?
Half a month later, at the gate of the Imperial Royal Army students, a group of teenagers stood blankly looking up at the statue on the gate.
"I seem to have been here in my dreams!"
"Wow! Our family will be proud of me!"
"Here's awesome!"
"Go! We are going to stay here for four years!"
Due to Chen Tian's relationship, all 24 students who graduated from the first phase of the Königsberg Junior Military Academy were allowed to be enrolled in the Royal Army Academy. Graduated student. According to what they have learned, the entrance exams of the Junior Military Academy of Königsberg are all strange topics, so they are not too worried about the graduates there.
"Well, in order for our future students to come here to study, we must perform well!" Chen Tian has become the leader of this group of teenagers!
"Yes! Matthew, you are always lazy in training, don't be eliminated in the first semester!"
"Which is cool and staying there! How could I be eliminated, look at my chest muscles..."
"Yo, that's good, there is really chicken feed! Hahaha!"
"Where's the countryman? Huh..." At this time, a few senior students next to them proudly walked past and sneered at the group of teenagers wearing old gray military uniforms.
"You..." This man named Ma Jiu wanted to rush up and say something, but Chen Tian grabbed him.
"These are the lords of some aristocratic families, don't pay attention to them! Let's go to report!" Chen Tian said, everyone really found that the military uniforms and boots on those people were very gorgeous, and most of the others on the road This is the case, only their group of people wearing the military uniforms of the junior military school appeared very bleak among the crowd.
"Gigi, why don't you prepare some good clothes for us! We really look like the countrymen!" one of them complained, Renee. 6 years of life has made them very familiar with each other, so they are used to calling Chen Tian directly.
"We were originally rural people! What about the rural people? We can endure hardships, we can be affected! Let them take a good look at the strength of our rural people and tell them to dare to look down on the rural people!" Chen Tian smiled and patted Rainy.
"But you are a prince! Why..." Renee puzzled.
"No, like me, we are countrymen from Königsberg, ha ha!" Chen Tian smiled holding his shoulder.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
In fact, the life of the Royal Army Academy is not much different from that of the Junior Military Academy of Königsberg. It is the same boring and the same hardship. It is just that there is more knowledge to be learned here, the training intensity is greater, and the competition is more intense.
"Ao fat, can you still hold on?"
"Well, it's okay..."
"Matthew, keep up with it!"
"rest assured..."
Chen Tian and they were put together into a 100-person company. On this day, they were fully armed with two other freshman companies to the exercise ground 10 kilometers away. Their opponents will be the same number of students about to graduate. Those trainees have already completed examinations in other subjects. This last item is a combat simulation with the nature of a military parade. This is the easiest exam for previous graduates. After all, they are opposed to freshmen who have just entered the college. Often freshmen are scared by the sound of guns at the beginning of the exercise. Where is there any decent resistance? . Of course, the nobles and generals who came to watch the graduation exercise can appreciate the "powerful" of the imperial army.
"Hi! Gigi, look! Aren't these the guys who despised us the day we entered the college? Looking at their arrogance, they didn't put us in the eye! We must fix them later!" Matthew It seems ready to spend with those people!
"Go! Look at the other people in our company. It's good to be able to run to the exercise field. They can't stop those guys at all!" Thomas pointed to the guy behind him and only ran most of the way. There were already many People are far behind, and they can basically keep up with Chen Tian's group.
"Ah! It seems that we shouldn't play tricks on our moustache instructor who forced us to run around the playground all day. Remember? I once put a mouse in his shoe and we were all caught by him in the middle of the night Get up and run the playground, ha ha ha!"
"Yes! I shouldn't secretly change the wine in his bottle!"
"Oh... the two of you turned out to be punished for running for no reason!"
"Hahaha..."
"Sample, laughing so happy, you won't cry for a while!" Another team on the road led by a young man named Eureka. He glanced at Chen Tian's team and said disdainfully. Their team trot neatly, quietly only footsteps, this is a typical German army!
On Chentian's side, only about 30 or 40 people were trotting in a relatively neat queue, and everyone else was pulling behind.
"Okay, everyone's attention, the attacking side is a graduate unit, and the defending side is a freshman unit. From now on, the defending side has one hour to build a trench, and the attacking side starts to attack one hour later!" The exercise referee announced to everyone After some exercise rules, they brought the freshmen to their defensive positions.
"The referee, where did the opponent attack?"
"Hello! They will attack from the hillside over there, and their starting position is over the hillside." The referee pointed to the hillside in the distance, then smiled and said: "Don't be nervous! We have never had recruits here to stay, so you don't need any pressure, just play with them!"
"Company commander, what should I do now? They are condescending, and they have artillery cover, so it is difficult for us to defend!" Chen Tian asked in front of their company commander. Their company commander was a very young instructor, who seemed to be only in his twenties. He sat down on the ground and said lazily.
"Did you not hear the referee say? Just dig the trenches for a while, just let go of a few shots!"
"You...Can I take us around here?" Chen Tian wanted to flatten this cowardly guy.
"Wouldn't it be nice to wait here to surrender? But whatever you want, remember to come and surrender in an hour!"
An hour later, Eureka appeared on the top of the hillside with his company. Sure enough, there was only a shallow trench on the opposite defensive position, and the freshmen were half-squatted in the trench, and half of them were exposed outside. Looking here.
"Haha! Easy grass annihilation! Let's start fireworks! Then we will go over and clean them up!"
"Boom...Boom..." The offensive's mountain cannon fired.
The generals and nobles sat on the hillside in the distance and watched with a telescope. The exercise judges reported the progress of the exercise.
"According to the position of the defensive side, in front of the powerful firepower of the offensive side, it is determined that 70% of the casualties on the defensive position are estimated to be less than one hundred soldiers, and the attacking side has no casualties!"
"Oh..." The nobles applauded.
"Lord General, congratulations!" a lady said to the general next to her with a smile.
"Oh! Our empire's army is the most powerful! Let's watch our warriors clean up the results!"
Ten minutes later, Eureka's company and the other two companies lined up neatly and began to walk toward the defensive square. At this time, in the bushes on the other side of the hill, Chen Tian lurked quietly with his platoon. inside.
"Okay, everyone get a bayonet! Go quickly behind the hillside, there are 5 mountain cannons and 6 machine guns, there are only about 30 people left, we quickly solve them, then control the machine guns, and then shoot from behind the attacking troops! Depart... …"
After a quarter of an hour...
"The referee, what's going on? Why did you decide that the attacker lost?" A big-bellied noble asked the exercise referee in surprise.
"Don't you see it? When the attacking side reached the half-hill, the starting position was captured by the defending side, and then the attacking forces were shot by machine guns behind them. They stood on the spot and spent 5 minutes rearranging the formation, waiting for them to rush back When starting the position, according to the rate of fire of the machine gun, the hit rate of the machine gun at that distance, and the formation of the attacking party, each of them was killed at least three times!" The other general stood up before the referee had answered. Put on a military hat and leave in angrily.
"Alas... it seems that they will have to graduate until next year! God!" Several other generals sighed helplessly. After all, they also knew that Prince William was on the defensive side, and they could not favor the offensive side. Originally they just wanted Prince William to see their army's offensive power. Unexpectedly, the defensive side actually made such a move, and the rule did not even write that the defensive side should not counterattack.
On the position where the attacker set off, Eureka, who had been "deathed" more than three times, looked helplessly at the teenagers in front of him. The group of teenagers who had been ridiculed by him as a countryman not long ago walked past him in front of him.
"If you want to be a qualified commander, you still have to learn a lot!"
