Baron Skeleton
"Hey Ernst, you're back."
After returning to their own position, Richthofen and Elina were already waiting for Wang Weiyi there. Richthofen held up a bottle of wine in his hand:
"Ernst, look what I brought."
Although Wang Weiyi has a good drinking capacity, he is not very interested in drinking, but he cannot dissuade the excited Richthofen.
The arrival of Elina also made Wang Weiyi somewhat unexpected.
After taking them into his tent, Wang Weiyi asked someone to bring a few cups: "Is the war over? Are you so free to inspect my position?"
"What else can we do on this damn rainy day?" Richthofen opened the wine bottle and poured it into three glasses: "The amazing Baron Alexson actually captured the French with less than twenty people. A whole group. But I would have been very surprised before, but now I am used to it. What can't Baron Alexon do? Drink a drink for your victory."
"For your victory, Red Baron." Wang Weiyi said with a smile.
"Ah ha, Red Baron? I like this name!" Although the fuselage has been painted bright red, no one has ever called Richthofen "Red Baron", and this nickname immediately made him famous. Excited: "What about you? What do people call you? The Devil of the Somme? Ah, that's not a loud enough name."
Looking at the two men, Elena had a smile on her lips.
What two excellent German officers. With such people here, will Germany still fail?
"Elina, why are you here? Is the Military Intelligence Agency so idle now?" Wang Weiyi asked curiously.
Elena took a sip of her wine and felt helpless: "Since Prince Joachim entered the Intelligence Bureau, my position has undergone some subtle changes. Nicholas no longer needs me to be responsible for specific intelligence matters, but to I was asked to do some very comfortable and inconsequential tasks, such as sorting out documents... Even if I didn't go to work for a few days, no one would bother me. In Germany, a woman doesn't need to be very capable. What's more, Nicholas has long distrusted me because of you."
"Isn't this bad?" Richthofen didn't care at all: "That despicable guy Nikolai doesn't need to pay attention to him at all. Prince Joachim will not stay in the Intelligence Bureau forever... When Elena came to the 2nd Hunting Squadron for official duties, she heard that I was coming to see you, so she came with me."
It seems that Elena has been treated as dispensable in the Military Intelligence Bureau, but this is good, at least it can avoid the embarrassment of future conflicts between Wang Weiyi and the Military Intelligence Bureau.
Elina pretended to be casual and took out a small box: "Ernst, when I went to the Eighth Army a few days ago, I got such a gadget from them. It is said that this was once a skeleton retinue of the Hussars. Marshal Mackensen wore it when he was the commander of the regiment. I will bring it over. I think you will like it. "
Wang Weiyi took it over curiously, opened it and found that the box contained a skull badge.
German Field Marshal, "Death Hussars", master of breakthrough tactics, recipient of the Blue Max Order, conqueror of Serbia and Romania, August von Mackensen!
This gift is very precious, and it is definitely not a "bauble" as Elena said.
"Thank you, Elena." Wang Weiyi said solemnly.
Richthofen smiled and said: "Hey, Ernst, don't listen to Elina. Colonel Jose of the Eighth Army regards this badge as his treasure. If Elina hadn't been so hard on him, , Colonel Jose will never give up the badge of their old regiment commander."
Elena blushed.
Yes, she had to admit that it took a lot of effort to get this badge from Colonel Jose. She knew Ernst would like it.
Wang Weiyi nodded gratefully to Elena, saying nothing.
He wore this skull badge on his collar, which added a special temperament to him. This badge, which witnessed Marshal Mackensen's brilliant achievements, looked so suitable when worn on Wang Weiyi's collar, as if it was specially customized for him.
An idea flashed in Richthofen's mind and he blurted out:
"Baron Skeleton!"
"What?" Wang Weiyi and Elina didn't hear clearly for a moment.
Richthofen's face turned red and he said with great excitement: "You call me the Red Baron. Look at Ernst wearing this badge. 'Skeleton Baron' Ernst Alexson von Bray "
Baron Skeleton? This name does not have any derogatory meaning in the eyes of Westerners, but it does sound quite medieval.
"Hey, for Skeleton Baron Ernst Alexson von Brahm!" Richthofen raised his glass high.
"For Skeleton Baron Ernst Alexson von Brahm!" Elena also smiled and raised her glass.
From this time on, Wang Weiyi had a new nickname:
Baron Skeleton!
This nickname was started by "Red Baron" Richthofen and is bound to be resounding throughout the German army.
When the "Red Baron" Richthofen appears in the sky and the "Skeleton Baron" Ernst Brahm appears on the ground, what a shock it will be to the enemy!
It's a pity that Rommel and Manstein are not here now, otherwise, they would definitely be happy about Ernst Brahm's new nickname.
Richthofen was a very emotional person. He walked out of the tent excitedly, and then said loudly to the soldiers in the supplementary battalion:
"Hey, warriors who shock the enemy, please call your captain the Skeleton Baron from now on."
The soldiers were stunned for a moment, then realized what Richthofen meant, and everyone couldn't help but cheer.
Baron Skeleton—Long live!
Elena looked at these cheering soldiers and whispered: "Ernst, the fanatical support you receive among your soldiers is very surprising. In my memory, only generals with outstanding military exploits can get it." Such treatment."
"I'm not a general, I'm just an ordinary person." Wang Weiyi didn't think there was anything extraordinary: "My soldiers and I fought together and shed blood together, that's all."
There was something strange in Elina's eyes, such a man was undoubtedly fascinating.
There are a large number of suitors around Elina, including many nobles with titles higher than Ernst, but compared with Ernst Brahm, Elina feels that none of them have any highlights.
Maybe I really fell in love with Ernst Brahm, the Skeleton Baron.
