The Countess didn't say much, just greeted Wang Weiyi, and then sent him an invitation to visit her manor when he was free.

Wang Weiyi agreed from a polite perspective.

Elina seemed unhappy on the side. Maybe the appearance of the Countess posed some threat to her heart.

However, Wang Weiyi couldn't take such a thing into consideration.

William II also came over with his son Prince Joachim and talked about the situation on the front line with Wang Weiyi. Apart from a simple greeting to Ernst Alexand von Breme, Prince Joachim never said a word.

No wonder he should have been the protagonist of this banquet, but all his popularity was stolen by the officers led by Wang Weiyi. Almost everyone ignored the existence of this prince, and no wonder he was depressed.

After finally finding an opportunity, His Highness the Prince invited Elena to dance with him, but Elena politely rejected him because of her physical discomfort.

It can be seen that Elena does not particularly appreciate Prince Joachim...

Wang Weiyi suddenly noticed that Prince Joachim looked at him fiercely. Wang Weiyi was completely understandable. The prince's birthday as the protagonist was completely stolen, and Elina's attitude would also annoy the prince.

However, Wang Weiyi did not want to offend Joachim particularly at this time. After all, he is a prince. If he does something bad behind his back, he is afraid that his title as the baron will not be able to help him with the disaster.

"His Royal Highness Friedrich William Victor August Ernst, the commander-in-chief of the German Fifth Army, is here!"

With this sound, William II's eldest son, the crown prince of Germany, August, who enjoyed a huge reputation in Germany, strode in.

The Germans' respect and love for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is no less than his father William II. Especially after Ardennes won the victory, His Royal Highness's reputation has reached its peak.

Passionate applause sounded again, mixed with cheers. August smiled and raised his hand to greet his admirers, then walked to William II and expressed his greetings to his father.

Then, he gently hugged his younger brother Prince Joachim and congratulated him on his birthday. Then he brought a pistol with ivory as the handle of the gun and handed it to his younger brother as his birthday gift.

This was seized from the British.

Ernst is also in his name? However, the identity of this "Enst" is completely incomparable to Wang Weiyi's "Enst".

"Enster Breme." August suddenly said to Wang Weiyi with a serious expression: "It is Ernster Breme, the creator of the Somme Miracle?"

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Wang Weiyi nodded, feeling a little nervous.

"Ha, the pride of Germany!" August suddenly put away his serious face, and actually hugged Wang Weiyi hard in front of everyone, and then he felt relieved: "I received a letter from His Majesty on the way here, and he told me that I was going to appoint you as a baron. I think the identity of the baron is not worthy of your military achievements at all."

This is a person who doesn't like to hide his emotions. His father William II obviously admires his son's character very much and always looks at him with a smile. Although Prince Joachim also had some smiles on his face, he looked a little embarrassed.

"You really deserve to come to my Fifth Army." August waved his arm vigorously: "Although the Fifth Army suffered some losses in Verdun, we, who have tenacious spirit, can quickly be excited from failure!"

Wang Weiyi smiled and listened to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Because of August's existence, the Fifth Army was called the "Crown Prince William Army" and followed Erich von Farkingham to participate in the Battle of Verdun. Although the battle failed, August still received many honors. The promotion speed of officers in this army was quite fast.

But Wang Weiyi didn't want to benefit from this.

"His Royal Highness is always so energetic." Marshal Hindenburg and General Rudendolf, the first-level general came over. Hindenburg smiled and said, "We now have two Ernsts, one is His Royal Highness and the other is Baron Alexander. When we launch a full-line attack again, Germany with two Ernsts will be invincible."

August's face suddenly became a little ugly, but he was still not used to hiding any of his thoughts: "Marrior Hindenburg, General Ludendolf, I don't think the war should continue."

The people around him were suddenly at a loss.

Wang Weiyi knew exactly what was going on.

Although August was a fanatical militarist, after the Battle of Verdun, he became a supporter of peace, believing that this war, which he thought was meaningless, should be ended as soon as possible.

But now that these words came out of his mouth, it made it difficult for people around him to react.

"Too many people have died." August did not care about other people's feelings at all: "In Ardennes and Verdun, I saw countless excellent German soldiers die, but what did we get? We did not get the benefits we wanted before the war, and we were even forced to support us in the Somme. A large number of Germans are dying every day, and our national strength is being consumed bit by bit. If we continue like this, the whole of Germany will fall into a terrible abyss."

William II, Hindenburg, Rudendolph and others' faces sank.

It is hard to imagine that a German crown prince would say such words. If someone else was replaced, he would definitely be arrested on the charge of shaking the morale of the army.

"Enough, August." Even though William II liked this son again, he said with a stern face: "Don't you know that we have won a great victory in the Somme?"

August was not afraid of his father at all: "But what foundation was such a great victory based on? Thousands of people died, and we only restored the lost positions before. Father, I am not afraid of war. If necessary, I can fight with guns today, but I am considering the future of Germany!"

"Go back to your Fifth Army." William II must maintain the majesty of Marshal Hindenburg and General Rudendolf as German commanders. He had to shout his son: "Without my order, you are not allowed to come to Berlin before the end of the war!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I obey your order!" August said loudly, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly said to Wang Weiyi:
Chapter completed!
