Berlin.

The new round of attacks had just ended, and the smoke of gunfire was thick and the sky was obscured by thick smoke from the bombed-out houses.

Outside the city, soldiers scrambled to repair the bombed-out trenches, restocking light and heavy machine guns and boxes of ammunition into their positions. And the planes marked with the swastika continued to take off tenaciously to defend the skies of Berlin.

In the center of Berlin, police, firefighters, doctors, and nurses were the first to appear on the streets, extinguishing the fires and helping the wounded who were groaning in pools of blood. Despite the heavy losses under the Allied bombardment, the citizens remained calm and calm, doing their best to help the wounded in need, and the police and firefighters to do what they could.

In Parisplatz, countless citizens who also wore the "swastika" mark shouted the slogan "All for Germany", where they vented their determination to die for Germany.

And in the very center of the square, a huge statue is erected. It was a soldier in military uniform, with a grim face, and his eyes seemed to be looking at the whole of Germany. On the left side of the statue, carved is a hunting and flying battle flag, which is the skeleton battle flag that the Germans are all too familiar with. And to the right of the statue, is a rose.

On the base of the statue, the following sentence is engraved:

"When danger befalls Germany, I—will return!"

There is no need for anyone to introduce you, every German knows who said this sentence, and every German knows who this statue belongs to!

Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Bram - Skull Baron! Some people like to call him Baron Rose!

A man dressed in the uniform of an SS major was giving a loud speech in the middle of Paris-Platz:

"Citizens of Germany, war has come to Berlin. Here, the capital of Germany, here. It is the place where countless glories begin. And now, here, shells are mercilessly taking away everything from us! Britain has fallen, France has betrayed us, our allies have lost and surrendered one by one, the heroic Wehrmacht, the heroic German SS, no matter what difficulties they face. They are always fighting. Our losses are getting bigger and bigger every day, and our casualties are increasing, however. None of this can shake our resolve. Defend Berlin – Defend Germany! ”

"Defend Berlin – Defend Germany!" Countless people made such a deafening cry.

The major's voice continued: "No one can shake our determination, not the Americans, and neither can the Russians!" The splendor that the barons and the Führer have brought to us must not be lost in the hands of our generation! Yes. Now we are in a very difficult situation. But our strong will is enough for us to win this battle of defense! All of us will always remember the saying, 'When danger befalls Germany, he will return!'" ’”

"When danger befalls Germany, he—will return!" The square erupted in such cheers again!

The mood of the German people was dispatched to its peak at this moment.

"Mom, who is he?" A little girl asked aloud.

"Baron. He's a baron! The mother who was holding the little girl replied equally loudly: "He is Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Baron Bream! Only He can save us! ”

"Mom, where did he go? Why hasn't he come back yet? ”

"I don't know what to do. Mom didn't know where he had gone, and no one knew where Baron had gone. The baron is long gone. ”

"Mother, do you mean the baron is dead?"

"Yes, the baron is dead."

"But how can a dead man help us?"

"He could, because he was a baron, Baron Alexon. As long as his statue remains, all Germans will fight for the baron. ”

"Mother, will we be able to meet the Baron?"

"Yes, we will be able to see the Baron when we die. Because he's a baron from hell! ”

The little girl stopped talking, and her eyes fell on the Germans who continued to shout slogans. Then the parade began.

In their own way, everyone is expressing their support for Germany and the German government...... In fact, each of them also knew very well that their greatest spiritual pillar, Baron Alexon, was no longer in this world, he was long dead, and he would never come back to help the German people.

But they didn't care. In their bodies is the blood of German pride; In the sky above them, there was a man who was always looking at the citizens of Germany, even if he was not in this world:

He's - Baron Skeleton!

Fight for him, die for him!

It was the twenty-first day of the Battle of Berlin......

．．．．．．

"Führer, the situation is already very critical."

In the Führer's office, the German Chief of Staff, Werner. Haysen's face was so serious: "The enemy has surrounded Berlin from all sides, and the intensity of artillery bombardment and aerial bombardment is getting higher day by day. The losses in Berlin are getting worse every day. But you can rest assured that our soldiers behaved very heroically, and for twenty-one days, despite numerous attacks by the enemy under superior firepower, they could not even break through the outer positions. ”

"Where's our factory?" The Führer of the German Empire, Kleur. Nikolai asked, turning around.

"The factory is still operating in an orderly manner to ensure that we are not short of weapons and ammunition, but what is worrying is our stockpiles." Werner quickly replied: "Due to the simultaneous betrayal of France and Russia, our front collapsed at once, a large number of German troops were besieged in North Africa and the Middle East, Berlin could not mobilize many troops, and the situation of material reserves was not very optimistic. ”

Führer Kloll listened carefully: "According to your estimates, how long can we hold out?" ”

"The positions on the outer line will be lost in about half a month, and Berlin will face a direct Allied attack." Werner said frankly: "If we can't get reinforcements. Berlin tried everything, but could not hold out for sixty days. ”

The air raid warning sounded suddenly, but this did not affect these people in the Führer's office.

Kloll said slowly: "What about negotiations? Is it possible to negotiate? ”

"I'm afraid it's not possible. Monarch. "The first female foreign minister in the history of Germany, Hannah Brown. Sean shook his head: "The Allies rejected all forms of negotiation, and now they have a huge advantage in their hands...... The only condition they put forward was that Germany must surrender unconditionally......"

"As German soldiers, we will never surrender!" Werner exclaimed: "Führer, even at the last moment, we still have one weapon, the atomic bomb!" ”

"Atomic bombs cannot be used. The atomic bomb must not be used! Führer Kloll exclaimed: "In 1950, we signed the name of the 'Nuclear Weapons Convention'. A convention, of course, cannot affect us, but. Even the Americans did not have the guts to be the first to use the atomic bomb, which would have caused the most terrible destruction. The chilling atomic bomb war ......."

He calmed his emotions: "General Werner, Minister Hannah, maybe. It's time for us to think about surrender. ”

"Nope. This will make the pride of Germany completely lost! Werner cried out angrily: "Countless German soldiers are shedding blood and dying for our country, fighting for the Germanic people, whether in Berlin, in North Africa, or in the Middle East!" And at this time, do we want to betray them? Just like the German government betrayed the German soldiers in 1919? ”

His emotions were very emotional: "Moreover, we are not completely desperate. Have you forgotten that when danger befalls Germany? He'll be back! ”

"He's coming back?" Kloll smiled a little disdainfully: "General Werner." Do you really believe in this ridiculous legend? So many years have passed, and he is long dead. He won't be coming back, maybe even his bones have been reduced to ashes. ”

"Yes, I know that Baron Lu Dao is no longer in this world, but the spirit of the Baron still inspires us to fight!" Werner refuses to show weakness: "Fight for him, die for him!" We will not betray the Baron! ”

"Look, you're excited again, General Werner." Kloll smiled: "I'm just discussing the possibility of surrender with you, of course I won't do that." General Werner, please return to your headquarters and continue to command the brave German soldiers. ”

As he left the Führer's office, General Werner left his last words: "Führer, please do not betray our fathers." ”

"Don't betray our fathers? They have all left this worldly realm. Looking at Werner's back, Kloll sneered, and then turned his head to Hannah: "Hannah, continue to get in touch with the Americans and tell them that Germany is willing to surrender, but I only have one condition, and my position as Führer must be guaranteed." In addition, I am willing to accept whatever conditions the Americans propose. ”

Hannah hesitated: "Secret communication with the Americans has not been interrupted, but did you really decide to do it?" In doing so, we are really betraying Germany and betraying our fathers. ”

"Hannah, do you also believe in the myth that when Germany is in danger, he will return?" There was no emotion in Kloer's voice: "What I am doing now is actually saving Germany. We are engaged in a hopeless war, and in sixty days the enemy will be able to take all of Berlin, and at that time it will be the most terrible destruction. ”

"But ......"

Seeing that Hannah was still trying to argue, Kloll impatiently interrupted her: "Do what I command, and don't forget that I am the Führer of Germany." ”

Hannah sighed softly and left the Führer's office......

The sneer always hung on Chloel's face, and he used to admire the Skull Baron infinitely, but now, he felt that the idea of his youth was so ridiculous.

What a baron, what a Führer Adolf . Hitler, what skeleton commandos, that's all in the past tense. The people who brought so much glory and splendor to Germany are now corpses. Of course, this also includes his father, Nikolai Sr.

He felt that his father's thoughts were incomprehensible, and he should not forget that old Nikolai and the skeletal baron were enemies of the same day, and that each had put the other to death. But what made Kloll incomprehensible was that. Why did his father follow the Skeleton Baron so faithfully later, even if he died with the Skeleton Baron.

Kloll took great pains to get the Imperial Führer Adolf. The trust and support of Hitler and the reich marshals. Succeeded in becoming Adolf. Hitler's heir, ascended to the position of head of the Reich. And the first thing he wanted to do after taking office was to smash the statue of the skeleton baron on the Paris square, so that this German myth would be completely erased from the hearts of the Germans.

This can be regarded as avenging the revenge of his father Old Nikolai.

However, Khlöll did not dare to do so, which would completely anger the German people...... Once the support of the German people and army was lost. I'm afraid that his position as head of state has also been achieved...... Fortunately, now the opportunity has come, the enemy attacked Berlin, for the Germans. It was a complete disaster. But for him, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity......

There can only be one leader in Germany, and that is him: Kjell. Nikolai!

His gaze couldn't help but look out the window, quickly. The Allies will appear in Berlin......

．．．．．．

Berlin Outer Position.

The Allied offensive began again. The SS skeleton division had been here for twenty-one days. From the first Allied offensive, they have been fighting here.

Skeleton Division - that is the most glorious name of all the German troops. And the skull battle flag, which always flutters in the position, is the greatest source of confidence for all officers and men.

Fight for him - die for him!

Jonner. General Erilster, who accompanied the officers and men of the division to fight here for twenty-one days, was proud of himself, and from beginning to end, he lived up to the reputation of his father, the prestige of the skeleton division, and the battle flag flying around him. Even more did not disappoint his father:

Ludwig. Erilster!

He knew that there was no hope of victory. Sooner or later, the enemy would break through this front, but he didn't care. As long as the Skeleton Division has one soldier left, they will fight to the end!

On his first day as the commander of the Skeleton Division, his fate was sealed:

Fight for him - die for him!

No one knows better than him what the Skeleton Division means, its predecessor was the Skeleton Commando, a myth of Germany's undefeated.

And its founder, the first captain, was the amazing Ernst. Alexon. Feng. Baron Bream:

- Baron Skeleton!

"General, the enemy is attacking!"

Amid the sound of artillery in the sky, Colonel Colham, commander of the 2nd Skull Infantry Regiment, shouted.

"Colonel, stick to your post and look for an opportunity to launch a counterattack, I will also hand over the 3rd Tank Destroyer Battalion to your command!" Shells kept falling on Gianner's side, but this did not dampen the SS major general's determination in the slightest.

The Allied artillery fire was overwhelmingly superior, and their planes appeared in the sky with impunity. Shells were constantly being smashed on the German positions.

Once upon a time, the sky – always was the skies of the German Air Force. But under the Allied blows, the Luftwaffe suffered heavy losses, and fewer and fewer planes were able to appear in the sky to give aid to the German Army.

But this still could not shake the will of the Germans, and they had to fight to the end without artillery support and air support.

Behind them, there was Berlin - that was the capital of the German Empire!

Under the frantic bombardment of the enemy, a large number of Allied tanks and infantry appeared.

"Let's get started." Jonnar said coldly.

He was not sure that he would be able to lead the officers and men of the division through the day, but they were still in the position, and they had to faithfully fulfill their duties as a German soldier.

The Skeleton Division threw in the few tanks and assault guns they had left, and became entangled with the enemy. On the frontal battlefield, no one can easily defeat the Skeleton Division, no!

Allied tanks were wiped out, and the Skeleton Division's tanks and assault guns were dwindling. But for all the officers and soldiers of the Skeleton Division, they didn't care at all.

They must defend Berlin with their blood and lives - to defend Germany!

At the height of the fighting, General Giannar appeared in the position of the 2nd Infantry Regiment, which had suffered the heaviest blows. Obviously, the situation of the 2nd Infantry Regiment is not optimistic. The whole regiment was already reduced by more than half, and almost all of their tanks and assault guns were lost.

"General, it looks like we can't get reinforcements, do we?" Colonel Colham had no intention of persuading the general to leave this dangerous battlefield.

"Yes, we can't get reinforcements. Our connection with several divisions has been completely severed. Jonnar's face was grim: "However, this does not prevent us from fighting until the last moment. ”

"If the Baron were here, he would have done a miracle." Colham sighed softly.

"He's not coming." When he heard the words baron, Johnnar's tone became so respectful: "However, I always remember one sentence, I will live up to the name of skeletons!" ”

- Will live up to the name of the skeleton!

"General, look, what's that?" Colham suddenly pointed to the sky.

A dozen black dots are rapidly approaching the battlefield. Gradually, it got closer...... Closer ......

They finally saw it clearly:

That's, German fighters!

Twelve German fighters appeared in the sky!

Hell, how could there be a dozen German fighters?

Johnnar had no idea what was going on.

This fighter formation is menacing, and at the front is a fiery red fighter!

Yes, Jonnar and all the officers and men of the Skeleton Division swear that they are not mistaken:

It was a fiery red fighter!

It's as red as a flame jumping in the sky! (To be continued......)
