It seems that this mystery will be difficult to answer in a short time.

Coming to the Berlin Grand Hotel, the accommodation here is much better. Manstein settled Wang Weiyi and the three of them, politely left, and said that he would pick them up the next day to attend His Majesty the Emperor's banquet.

After sitting in the room for a while, feeling a little bored, someone brought me the newspaper of the day.

The front pages of the newspapers reported that Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg had been appointed Chief of Staff, and that General Ludendorff had been appointed First Commissary Director of the Supreme Commander.

At the same time, newspapers also reported on the "Hindenburg Plan" formulated by this pair of perfectly matched commanders.

Wang Weiyi knew very well that the emergence of the "Hindenburg Plan" made Hindenburg and Ludendorff the supreme controllers of Germany's destiny.

What surprised Wang Weiyi was that under the "Hindenburg Project", there was an article:

"Creator of Miracles on the Somme"!

That's right, it's Wang Weiyi - Ernst Brahm! The entire beginning of the article describes the "brilliant and great" victory achieved by the German counterattack on the Somme.

Wang Weiyi smiled.

In fact, the Somme Counterattack was not as great as the newspapers said. Strictly speaking, the German army only restored the previously lost positions, but did not cause further significant damage to the British and French coalition forces.

Starting from the second paragraph of the article, it focuses on the commander of the third company of the 16th Bavarian Infantry Regiment Supplementary Battalion: Ernst Brahm.

He and Guo, a temporary "hired" Chinese laborer, miraculously destroyed the British army's arrogant Prince of Soberk Battalion and the 19th Welsh Infantry Regiment while being heavily surrounded by hundreds of thousands of British troops. The enemy numbered over five hundred. It was inspired by the "Ernst Miracle" that the German soldiers fought bravely and finally won the victory on the Somme.

The article vividly describes the battle as if it were something I saw with my own eyes.

"The creator of the miracle on the Somme", "Mr. Miracle", "the hero of Germany"... the article is full of praise. However, the word "tank" was not mentioned. It seems that Lieutenant Ernst and his companions achieved such a victory entirely with their own hands.

Wang Weiyi could only smile bitterly.

How could there be hundreds of thousands of British troops? There were really so many enemies surrounding him that every one of them drowned himself with just a drop of spittle. Propaganda is nothing more than exaggerated propaganda.

The war has progressed to this point. In addition to talented commanders like Hindenburg and Ludendorff, heroes like Wang Weiyi, a low-level officer, are also needed to boost everyone's morale.

The "Miracle of the Somme" gave German propaganda agencies their best opportunity...

While he was reading the newspaper, the hotel waiter knocked on the door and told Wang Weiyi that there was an officer outside who wanted to see him.

officer? Wang Weiyi was startled for a moment, straightened his clothes, and asked the waiter to bring in the officer who wanted to see him.

This is a colonel in his forties, tall and with a thin face. When he saw that the other party's official rank was much higher than his own, Wang Weiyi hurriedly stood at attention.

"Hello, Lieutenant Ernst Brahm, the creator of the Miracle of the Somme." The colonel said calmly: "I am Colonel Carles Nikolai from the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Army Staff."

Nicholas? Director of Military Intelligence Nikolai?

Wang Weiyi's energy suddenly came together: "Colonel, it's an honor to meet you."

"I am also honored to meet you." Although he said this, there was no hint of "honor" in his words. He sat down and his eyes fell on the newspaper Wang Weiyi was reading: "Well Lieutenant Stern, your story is now being spread throughout Germany. On the streets of Berlin, there are two people whose names will be enthusiastically pursued as soon as they appear. One is Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg, and the other is you. "

"I'm ashamed, I didn't do much." Wang Weiyi said calmly.

Nicholas suddenly appeared here so quickly, which was enough to arouse his vigilance.

Judging from Richthofen's attitude towards him, this man is not likeable, but most people who do intelligence work are like Nikolai.

Sure enough, Nikolai then changed the subject: "I'm just curious. According to the news from the front, you captured a total of three tanks. Ah, regarding this, our spies lurking in the British also sent similar intelligence, and confirmed the surrender of British tanks..."

It must be the information that was replaced by him. However, until now, Wang Weiyi still did not dare to relax at all. He believed that Nicholas must have another purpose since he came.

Nicholas looked at Wang Weiyi: "What makes me curious is why the British tank crews are so willing to serve you? And three tanks in a row are serving you? Do you have any magic? It's even more confusing Strangely enough, all three tanks were destroyed on the eve of the victory, and none of the tank crews survived, which is very strange."

"I don't quite understand what you mean." Wang Weiyi said calmly.

Nicholas smiled slightly: "Lieutenant, we did something similar, letting a German officer kill many of his own people, and then escaped to the British. As a result, he became a hero in the eyes of the British. Ah, of course , I know you are certainly not such a person, if there is any offense, I must ask your forgiveness."

Wang Weiyi felt relieved.

Nicholas only suspected that he had reached some kind of ulterior deal with the British, or more directly, he suspected that he had been bribed by the British to become a spy.

If this is really the case, it would be easier to handle. No one can know the truth about the three Panzer 1 tanks.

"Colonel, I feel insulted." Wang Weiyi's face also darkened: "It is your right to doubt, and you can also investigate me, but you have no right to doubt a German military officer's loyalty to Germany! I have also discussed this with Miss Heinrich Elena in detail."

"Yes, Heinrich did say such a thing to me." Nicholas stood up at this time: "I have no other intention, it's just curiosity that drives me to do this. Ah, His Majesty the Emperor will return tomorrow I want to summon you, so I won't disturb your rest. I hope we can meet again after His Majesty the Emperor's banquet."

Wang Weiyi sent Nicholas out with a smile, but at this time he felt a crisis. Especially Nicholas' last words, it was obvious that he told himself that he would never let this matter go.

You must find a way to get rid of this crisis as soon as possible, otherwise Colonel Nicholas and his Military Intelligence Bureau of the Army Staff will haunt you like a ghost.
