Missing

The damn rain finally stopped and the sun showed its long-awaited head, although it was only temporary.

The German officers and soldiers on the front line could breathe a sigh of relief. They no longer had to worry about enemy attacks and at the same time had to deal with the trouble caused by rainy weather.

But what is strange is that the top German army did not issue an order to attack.

British planes began to appear in the sky, and it seemed a little unusual that the planes appeared just after the rain stopped.

The British planes flew over the supplementary battalion without paying any attention to the German troops below. This caused the German soldiers to lean out of their positions and look curiously at the enemy planes that were retreating.

After a while, there seemed to be some bombing sounds in the distance.

Where is the target of the enemy bombing?

While the German soldiers in the supplementary battalion were speculating, three British planes flew back, but they looked a little embarrassed. One of the planes was obviously injured.

Then came a moment that made all Germans cheer:

A bright red German fighter plane appeared!

The Red Baron - Manfred von Richthofen!

The Red Baron's fighter plane bit the injured British plane tightly, tongues of fire spurted out from the two machine guns crazily, and finally, the British plane exploded into a gorgeous fireball in the air.

Before the German soldiers on the ground cheered, the Red Baron set his sights on another fighter plane. Soon, the British aircraft once again became one of the Red Baron's aerial trophies...

At this time, cheers finally broke out from the German position...

The last remaining British aircraft fled in embarrassment, but the Red Baron's red fighter plane began to fly at low altitude as if showing off, hovering over the German position for several times, and after fully accepting the cheers from the ground, it regained its arrogance. leave.

The Red Baron - the proud representative of the German Army in the air!

The "Skeleton Baron" Ernst Brahm on the ground - Wang Weiyi, looked at this short but fierce air battle with a smile.

The arrogant Richthofen was so courageous that he actually chased three enemy planes alone. Wang Weiyi even doubted whether he had obtained permission from his commander before taking off...

The Red Baron showed off his majesty in the air, but the order for the ground attack did not come for a long time.

In the afternoon, someone suddenly came from the army headquarters and asked Captain Ernst Brahm to report to the headquarters immediately without any delay.

The headquarters even sent a car for him.

What emergency happened? Wang Weiyi did not dare to show any slightness and hurriedly jumped into the car...

When he arrived at the headquarters, he was surprised to find that senior officers such as General von Bello and General von Galwitz had all arrived, and they all looked solemn.

"Ernst..."

Before Wang Weiyi finished speaking, General Bello interrupted him impatiently: "Okay, Captain Ernst, there is no need to report any more, come here."

Wang Weiyi took a few steps forward, and General Galwitz, who had a very solemn expression, pursed his lips: "Colonel Roll, please tell Captain Ernst about the situation."

Colonel Rohr's voice sounded a little trembling: "Captain Ernst, just in the morning, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince disappeared."

Wang Weiyi was shocked: "His Royal Highness Crown Prince William August?"

"Yes." Colonel Rohr nodded heavily: "After the rain stopped, at about 5 a.m., His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left the headquarters with his guards, saying that he was going to inspect the front line, but after His Highness the Crown Prince left, Soon, British planes were dispatched and dropped several bombs on the path that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must pass. The guard was blown apart. Because the incident happened so suddenly, only Manfred von Richterhoe was left. Lieutenant Finn's fighter plane took off in time for reinforcements, but when the British fighter plane was driven away, we discovered that His Royal Highness was missing. "

Wang Weiyi took a breath of air. No wonder several British fighter jets suddenly appeared in the morning...

At this time, there was a trace of doubt in my heart: "General, why are you looking for me?"

"Do you know why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left his headquarters?" General Bellot helped Colonel Rolle continue: "When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard that you captured a French regiment with only one assault team, he became very interested. So I decided to go to your place to have a look in person after the rain stops..."

Look at yourself? Wang Weiyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In this way, there is an inseparable connection between himself and the disappearance of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Ernst, the situation is very serious." General Bello said worriedly: "Right now, this situation is still kept strictly confidential, but we have no idea where the Crown Prince has gone, whether he is alive or dead. If this news If it spreads, the morale of the military will be seriously shaken. It can even be said that if His Royal Highness died in the battle, he died for Germany, but if he fell into the hands of the enemy..."

It would be terrible if August fell into the hands of the enemy and became a prisoner!

"Come here, Captain Ernst." General Bello called Wang Weiyi to the map: "According to our analysis, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was bombed by British planes in this area. We immediately dispatched a large number of troops to focus on this area. Searched, but His Highness the Crown Prince was not found at all. According to the returning guards, the last time they saw His Highness the Crown Prince, he retreated in this direction..."

Monteby!

Wang Weiyi immediately understood why the headquarters had called him here in such a hurry.

"Captain Ernst, do you see anything?"

"Yes, General." Wang Weiyi said loudly: "My troops are closest to Meng Derby. The general wants me to search for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on the Meng Derby front line with all my strength."

"Captain Ernst Brahm." General Galwitz took a step forward: "Now I order you that all the supplementary battalions will be devoted to the rescue plan for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and your position will be taken over by other troops for defense. What do you need? Materials and personnel can be mobilized without any request. Officers below the rank of colonel must obey your orders before finding His Majesty the Crown Prince. All artillery and air force will serve you for this operation! "

General Bello took over his words: "Captain Ernst, I think you also know the importance of this operation. Mendelby is too close to the enemy's position. I order you to find His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and capture him as much as possible." He was brought back safely..."

Wang Weiyi was surprised. Bring him back safely as much as possible? So what is the subtext of the general?

"If necessary, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not be allowed to become a prisoner of the enemy." General Bello said these words seriously.
