The knight in the big world of American TV series

Chapter 151 During the First World War
Time is the scariest thing in the world. It can make everything go bad and decay. It can also make everything grow from nothing to prosperity. It can even turn the sea into mulberry fields and mountains into valleys. Nothing can stand in front of it. constant.

There is nothing that can stop time from rushing forward, and the world will not stop because of the departure of a person.

Kai's disappearance did not stop everything.The world goes on, and so do people and things.

It's just that with the passage of time, everything that happened in the past has become legends, and legends are extremely pale in front of time. Legends will undergo earth-shaking changes according to different times.

For example, Arthur became King Arthur, and then became a legend that is famous all over the world, but the background of the times has changed. The original Celtic legend became a legend after Christianity spread to Great Britain. Typical Christian story.

The relationship between the characters has changed greatly. For example, Arthur's uncle Tristan became a member of the Knights of the Round Table in later legends.In the life experience of King Arthur, for example, in the legend, Arthur became a wild child. He was taken away by Merlin since birth and given to Kay's father, Sir Eckert, for adoption.Then there was a sword in the stone, and the one who pulled out the sword was king.

Of course, there are also some things that have never changed, such as King Arthur, who is still talented and bold, but has a miserable ending. He was greened by his own knight and stabbed to death by his own son.

Another example is Kai, the righteous brother of King Arthur, whose status in the legend is still lofty. It was he who helped King Arthur stabilize the situation and secure the throne. It was also he who killed the dragon and saved King Arthur. Let King Arthur win the war and unify England. (This is made up by me, I can't let Kai be too soy in the legend)

In short, although time retains some things, it still changes the past beyond recognition.Maybe in a few years, King Arthur will become the king of quilts, still a woman, and maybe even become a cold-faced Yujie with a good figure, who knows?
Thankfully, even after countless years, at least they have not been forgotten.

……

Time came to the beginning of the twentieth century.

The saddest thing about human beings is that no matter how they evolve, they cannot resist the factory settings in their DNA.They love to create, but also love to destroy.Perpetually in a cycle of development followed by self-destruction.

Even now.

At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20s, the world experienced unprecedented prosperity, and the invention of the steam engine set off an industrial revolution.

The railway has connected Europe more closely. It only takes a few days for people to travel from the Atlantic coast to the Strait of Istanbul, and the distance is no longer a problem.Anything seems possible if you dare to imagine it.People are excited by the convenience brought by technology, the future is so bright and beautiful, it seems that everything is under control.People didn't realize how cruel reality would be until the summer of 1914.

On June 1914, 6 (Serbia's National Day), Archduke Ferdinand and his wife, Crown Prince of Austria-Hungary, were shot and killed by Serbian youth Gavrijo Princip while they were inspecting in Sarajevo.

Then the war started.

Before that, no one thought that the death of a crown prince would drag the whole world into a huge disaster.You must know that before the war started, the rulers of the major warring countries were all relatives. Many people thought that the assassination of the crown prince would end with mediation and negotiations among various countries, but unfortunately... things backfired.

On July 7 of the same year, with the support of Germany, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia under the pretext of the Sarajevo incident.Then Russia declared war on Austria-Hungary.Germany also immediately declared war on Russia, and then the two major military blocs of the Entente and the Allies went to war.

The beginning of the war was beyond everyone's expectations, and the process was even more so. No one would have thought that the war would be so brutal and so long.

The war broke out in 1914. In this year, according to the Schlieffen plan formulated before the war, the German army first launched a large-scale offensive on the western front. The offensive on the front line bankrupted the German army's plan for a quick victory.

The two sides fighting on the western front built trenches, faced off for a long time, and turned to positional warfare.

In the following two years, the number of deaths on both sides of the war has exceeded the expectations of the countries themselves, and the two major military groups have begun to seek ways to end the war.

In 1916, Germany first launched the breaking plan.In this year, Erich von Ludendorff was promoted to General of the Infantry in the same year by Kaiser Wilhelm II's First Quartermaster Director, which is equivalent to Deputy Chief of the General Staff.

And secretly, Ludendorff actually led a secret army, a biological and chemical army, bent on using biological and chemical weapons to reverse the passive war situation of the German army.

In the same year, there were three large-scale land battles in this year, namely the "Battle of Verdun" on the western front, the "Battle of the Somme" and the summer offensive of the Russian army on the eastern front (Brusilov Offensive). At sea, after the Battle of Jutland, Britain still firmly controlled the sea.

This year was also regarded as a decisive year by both sides of the war.

It was also on such a stage that Ludendorff and his poisonous snake came into everyone's sight.

All kinds of terrible biological and chemical weapons began to show their power in the war, and the Allies suffered heavy losses.If this is the case, the Allied Powers can still resist. After all, although biochemical weapons are powerful, they still can't play a decisive role. It's great to prepare more gas masks.What really troubled the Allied Powers was that the special team led by Ludendorff came and went without a trace, and every time they appeared on the battlefield, they would kill the enemy in a turbulent manner.

According to the reports of front-line soldiers, they called these people demons, they did not shoot bullets, they moved swiftly and secretly, and some soldiers even claimed to see them sucking the blood of the enemy.

All in all, the impact was very bad. Of course, what was worse was that until July 1916, for half a year, the Allied Powers were helpless against them. They never captured these special operations members, not even dead bodies.

However, the situation improved in early October, when an American spy - Steve Trevor - helped the Allies bring back a super soldier - Diana Prince.Frontline fighters prefer to call her - Wonder Woman!
From July when she joined the Allied Powers camp, to September, she and a British special forces team started a two-month confrontation with Ludendorff's Viper special forces. In terms of record, Ms. Diana should be considered to have the advantage .

However, in late September, Steve and Diana secretly retreated to the British Isle under the order of the Allied Powers Joint Command.According to their contact, Sir Patrick, the chief of MI9, they will carry out a secret mission personally ordered by the royal family.

The content of the mission is absolutely confidential, and even he, the chief of MI[-], is not qualified to know.He was only responsible for taking them to the residence of the royal teacher, Pastor Dalton, and he knew nothing about the rest, and was even asked to forget all the details of this task.
