German Eagle: Steel and Magic

Chapter 58 Imperial Military Academy
Carl continued to sit by the window in a daze, his backpack was already on the luggage rack, and his hand was on the necklace in front of his neck.

He is about to go to an officer training class. The purpose of this intensive class is for those who lack qualifications but have enough meritorious service on the battlefield to be promoted. Karl is on that list.

When Major Ruhr saw the list made by the Central Army Headquarters, he was shocked at first, and then it became very complicated.

The main feeling is reluctance. Karl is very popular in the 503 brigade. After all, he is really good and knows how to consider others. Seeing this young face gives hope, but if he leaves suddenly , there will always be a feeling that something is missing.

It's a pity that he is too good. Carl is an ace aviation mage. Whether it is a powerful magic talent, a very skilled magic formula, or a very strong personal strategy, his strength will definitely pass the training.

The result is a promotion and transfer to another unit.

An outstanding child who is not yet ten years old, everyone will hope that he can become a field commander, but at the same time, he is not yet ten years old...

This kind of battlefield full of gunpowder and death is not suitable for this kind of child, although he is mature, although he is strong...

Major Ruhr was silent for a while after receiving the transfer order.

Finally, he took a closer look at the list, and after repeatedly confirming that there was a quota for Karl, he was called over, and the transfer order was handed over to him.

All that was left was for Ruhr to explain the situation to Captain Hiram, and then promoted Prami to be the acting squad leader.

However, Karl has reservations about this decision. After all, this guy Prami...his head will definitely be short-circuited, so I can rest assured that Yangstorf is by the side.

These two people's styles can complement each other and they are a good partner.

After sorting out the items, Karl left the Brandenburg Division according to the stipulated time.

There was no see-off as expected. No one from the 503rd Brigade came, only a staff officer from the Brandenburg Division drove Karl to the train station.

It's not that the people in the 503rd Brigade are heartless, or because they are sad and embarrassed to come forward, in fact, they just have a task today...

Carl can only say yes, busy, get promoted and raise salary, and then retire.

Saarbrücken is not only a transportation hub, but also an industrial center of the German Empire.

The main arms manufacturer of the German Empire, the Rhein Arms Company, had a factory in Saarbrücken.

The factory has three machine gun production lines and two rifle production lines. Since the outbreak of the war, these five production lines have not stopped. Every day, countless firearms are sent to the officers and soldiers on the front line. The Franks decided to make a ruthless move.

No food!They decided to kill the factory.

Just the day before, a team of secretly infiltrated Frankish agents launched an attack on the factory.

Fortunately, they were repelled by the guards, but this was also a wake-up call. The enemy was in the dark, and I was in the light. No one knew when they would make a comeback, so they could only maintain a high level of vigilance.

The Saarbrücken City Defense Command ordered a comprehensive search of the surrounding area of ​​the factory. Because there was a serious shortage of aviation wizards and the 503rd Brigade was just resting, the 503rd Brigade was naturally selected.

The train moved slowly, and Karl looked at the changing scenery outside the window. He really didn't know what kind of trip this time would unfold.

It seems that every time I get on a train, my life or the place I usually live in will change, and then it will be a completely new life.

Karl took out the armband of the Brandenburg Division from his pocket and played with it in his hand, recalling his previous life on the front line.

Logically speaking, as a refresher student, Karl is not allowed to keep the logo of the original unit. After all, they will reassign the troops after completing all courses in the refresher class.

But Major Ruhr said that Karl can keep this armband, which can be regarded as a small commemoration.

"Brother who has gone through life and death, goodbye."

Carl smiled wryly. He never liked war. War did not bring him the feeling of "adrenaline", but the thrill of hovering on the verge of death.

Putting away the armbands, Karl continued to look at the scenery outside the window. This place is not far from the front line, and the Franks' planes occasionally visit, but the frequency is too small.

After all, the German air force and anti-aircraft artillery are not for dry food, so there is not much taste of war here.

The train passed through the railway in the country, and Carl could see children playing in the fields, obviously he was about the same age as them, after all, at this age, it was not the time to go to the battlefield and fight others to the death.

Carl suddenly realized that he was abnormal. At nine years old, he was more dangerous than his classmates who were sixteen or seventeen years old. This was obviously unfair.

"Damn god old man, even if it's an extremely difficult world of war, at least let me have a childhood, this bastard..." Carl gritted his teeth and cursed inwardly.

However, it seems that he chose to be a soldier himself, although the reason is that his parents are gone and his guardian is a villain.

But it doesn't matter anymore, the gods are the object of Karl's curse at the age of four, if there is any unpleasantness, just tell the gods, the reason is not important.

The train continued to drive, and Karl gradually fell asleep. After all, Yangstorf and Prami had been noisy yesterday, and they were reluctant to part with Karl. This moved Karl from the bottom of his heart, but it also made him not sleep well yesterday. .

In a trance, Carl dreamed that when he went to Heidelberg alone, he also took the train and looked out the window.

What was Carl's mood at that time?Perhaps far simpler than it is now.

"As a gamble, you must try your best to survive and live longer than the others. This is your only goal... Foreigners, you must survive."

Carl didn't know why this sentence suddenly came to his mind, or he couldn't tell whether it was said by a god or a replay in his own memory.

"Don't even let me sleep, okay? You wait, don't let me find the church."

Then the radio rang,

"Heidelberg Station has arrived. Passengers who are about to get off, please get off in an orderly manner with your luggage."

"Heidelberg Station has arrived. Passengers who are about to get off the train, please get off in an orderly manner with your luggage..."

Karl sat on the train for almost a day, and his ass was a little numb.He returned to Heidelberg, and when he got out of the car, he saw a platform full of soldiers.

"There is quite a feeling of being displaced, going around in circles, and then returning to the starting point."

Carl laughed at himself, and walked towards the exit of the station with ease.

I took a taxi casually, and the driver still looked surprised, which was the same as when I first came to Heidelberg and went to the Parisino Military Academy.

But this time the place to go is the Imperial Military Academy, one of the three fathers of Heidelberg.

Looking at the familiar street scene, Carl can't feel the atmosphere changed by the war here, obviously the atmosphere changed by the war here should be the most serious.

It seems that everyone is used to it, which is great.

Except that some soldiers can be seen on the street, there are various shops open on the street as before, and the flow of people and laughter have not decreased. It seems that there are really just a few more soldiers standing on the street.

"Maybe it should be like this, the war is borne by the soldiers, and the people just need to live and work in peace and contentment."

Carl said something to himself lightly, which made the driver a little bit astonished, but he was tactful and didn't say anything.

The driver saw Carl's military uniform through the rearview mirror. No one would wear a military uniform to pretend to be a soldier, so this young soldier must be very unusual.

And he was going to the Imperial Military Academy. He was exhausted and felt like a soldier who had just come down from the battlefield. That's right, a soldier who had just come down from the battlefield.

It was a kind of temperament that survived the artillery fire after fighting with the enemy.
