Lynn watched sadly as the Night Soldier injected his wounded companion with drugs like morphine, as he did in the movies. It's just that unlike the morphine injection needle that the U.S. military was equipped with, the German soldier had to assemble a small syringe and then draw the liquid from a small bottle with a glass bottle and a metal head. The wounded SS soldier was still moaning, but his convulsions were gradually subdued, and the "Night Soldier" on the left immediately sprinkled some powder on his wound, stuffed it with a hemostatic cotton pad, wrapped it in gauze, and still put away his first aid kit with his hands and feet.

Can such a treatment save a life? Lynn couldn't judge, but the unwavering abandonment of his wounded comrades was not simply benevolence, but a manifestation of fighting character, so that officers and soldiers could get rid of their burdens and move forward bravely on the battlefield.

It was such an army with a high degree of professional quality, but it was defeated one after another in the two largest wars of the 20 th century, causing the entire country and nation to fall into the abyss of misery again and again.

Why?

Open a political or history textbook, and the passage about World War II clearly states: Those who wage a war of aggression will inevitably suffer defeat.

However, the history of the war in the United States is a powerful response to this assertion: starting with the Mexican War, the Mexican-American War, the Spanish-American War, World War I, World War II, then the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the armed invasion of Dominica, the invasion of Grenada, the Libyan conflict, the invasion of Panama, the Gulf War, the armed intervention in Somalia, the Kosovo War, the Afghanistan War, and the Iraq War, most of these wars were characterized by aggression, and the US [***] team did not maintain a complete victory in these war operations. But instead of falling, the United States has become more and more consolidated in its international hegemony.

Why are the results so far apart?

If it was because the seemingly powerful but flawed leader led them down the wrong path, then Truman, who decided to send troops to Korea, Kennedy, who started the Vietnam War, and Johnson, who escalated and expanded the Vietnam War, did not necessarily have more comprehensive leadership than Wilhelm II and Hitler.

Britain's transformation from an island country in a corner of the country to an "empire that never falls" across the ocean has also plundered wealth, seized territory, and occupied markets through one war of aggression after another, and only then has it reached the pinnacle of history step by step.

Could it be that the fortunes of the country are such that no one can change them?

No, Lynn never believed in fate. In his concept, the fortune of a country is the development trend of a country's various elements, and there is no so-called insurmountable barrier, let alone absolute justice and evil. It is true that the Nazi fascists' actions in promoting racism and massacre of Jews have gone against the tide of human development, but let us not forget that the United States of America, which has always proclaimed its freedom of boiling, has also had a history of disgraceful killings against the Indians, the true masters of the North American continent, and has done so with the utmost brutality and barbarism; The Red Soviets, which represent the most progressive ideas of mankind, have also had backward, ignorant, and brutal behaviors in the course of development, such as the Great Purge, Russian chauvinism, and naked aggression against neighboring countries, and mistakenly chose the Cold War and the arms race, which are not suitable for their own development, and finally fell apart.

History is judged by the winners, and Lynn remembers a teacher in a college class talking about game theory, saying that no one can foresee what he is right or wrong, and he can only choose the path he thinks is best based on his own vision.

Recalling the reason why Kaiser Wilhelm II, the emperor of the Second German Empire, chose to start a war, Lynn felt that it was because at that time, Germany's development speed had surpassed that of Britain and France, and when the world's major colonies had been carved up, the German leaders decided to reorganize the pattern of interests in the form of a war. This is not entirely a matter of personal will, but in fact a game that is in line with national interests. For this reason, when the news of the declaration of war came, the whole of Germany was boiling, and the people greeted the soldiers who had gone on the march with flowers and applause - they were eager to gain more from a war.

According to Lynn's view of history, the reason why Hitler, the leader of the Third German Reich, chose to start the war was also because Germany achieved far more results in rearmament than Britain and France, and when the attempt of political coercion failed, this state apparatus that was already running at high speed on the wartime track had no way out, and the war once again became a game to determine the fate of the country. It's just that it, like the last war, was risky from the very beginning. In contrast, the political axe of the United States and its leaders are full of businessmen, and in each of its wars, they either choose old countries that are said to be weak or weak, and even in two world wars, they only weigh on the weight when the overall situation has been decided, and the probability of victory is naturally much greater than that of a war with equal strength or each with its own strengths.

After thinking about it so much, Lynn suddenly felt that if she one day became the decision-maker of the country, she would definitely be cautious about the issue of war. If you are not sure of more than 90 percent victory, it is best not to do it. However, if you are a small soldier and still have to struggle for survival, where will the national decision-making come from? Even if it continued to stay in Germany after the end of the war and was able to make achievements in the political circles, Germany at that time was always facing the attack of the United States and the Soviet Union, and finally survived in the cracks, not to mention war decisions, many things must be done according to the faces of others, and what can make a difference is the economic aspect - the economy is of course the foundation of the country, but it does not even have the dignity of the country, and no matter how strong the economy is, it is useless?

Thinking about the realities that were not profound but powerless to change, Lynn felt very depressed. He lifted the corner of the tarpaulin, and wanted to breathe a few breaths of fresh air, hey, what a turned-over serf is more ruthless than the landlord - Mao Zi is still throwing shells in this direction without a head, as if these ammunition don't cost money. It's right to think about it: if the huge amount of military aid provided by Britain and the United States to the Soviet Union were given to Germany, it is estimated that Maozi would be wiped out in 43 years, and it would be their turn to make an earth-shattering reversal. Although the specific figures of various post-war sources vary, it is an undeniable fact that when the Soviet Union lost millions of troops and a large amount of equipment in the first two years of the war, and the main industrial facilities were successively relocated strategically, the fighter planes, tanks, gasoline, steel and ammunition provided by the West played a very positive role, and it can even be said that it was decided. Of this, the amount of gasoline and aluminum aid exceeded the total production of the Soviet Union itself, and they multiplied the size of the Soviet Air Force and armored forces.

All this shows the strategic importance of an ideal ally, but Germany ...... Look at Italy and Ben, the sorrow makes you want to cry without tears.

If the time is set forward by three or four years, Lynn may still try to take the high-level route, but in the current situation, there is no way to save this sinking empire, and no way will work!

With a long sullen breath, Lynn looked at the bursting points that rose instantly, the bright yellow flames flickering in the center were wrapped in a black crust like a filling, and shrapnel, mud, ice, and water kneaded together to form this extremely diffuse crust. Sitting here is more exciting than watching fireworks if you don't care about the damage they can cause, but even if 99 percent of the shells fall outside the dangerous distance, the only one percent still makes Lynn and his companions hang in the heart, after all, there is already an example of bad luck around them, who can guarantee that they will not be next?

Looking inadvertently into the distance, the pine forest that I once walked through was like a mountain beam parallel to the ground, and behind it was hidden the village that I had fought so hard and almost died, and the Soviet armored unit that had suffered this wound might have withdrawn to the rear to rest, or the company that had preserved its strength more intact and integrated it into friendly forces, or their losses were not as heavy as they seemed on the scene. It is true that this battle left many regrets, and it can even be said that it was not successful, but Lynn suddenly thought that the significance of defeating a battalion and regiment-level armored force does not seem to be as good as destroying the opponent's ammunition depot, fuel station, and headquarters, but just now the German assault force killed and injured a large number of Soviet personnel, many of which must be full-time armored soldiers, it takes a long time and energy to train such a group of people, in contrast, it is much easier to manufacture a corresponding number of armored combat vehicles.

In the same way, when it comes to the national level, talent is the most important factor in determining the outcome of a war rather than material factors.

In both world wars, Germany lacked no shortage of elites, what was lacking were strategists with real far-sighted vision. Hindenburg, Ludendorff or Guderian, Manstein, and Rommel were only first-rate commanders, each of whom had distinguished himself at the tactical level, but could never reach the military heights of Napoleon; Bateman, Bülow and von Bateman, Beagle, and Von. Niu Wright, Ribbentrop and the like are not at all worthy of being compared with the "iron-blooded prime minister" Bismarck. Hitler, who really possessed the qualities of a "great man," had the weakness of being extremely personified and emotional--if he could maintain an objective and calm mind and a keen and atmospheric insight like Bismarck all year round, his deeds would be unlimited!
