After parting with Akado, Seeckt walked back to the 1st Division's command post, feeling somewhat dejected. He saw Hammon studying a map, and seeing his trusted and favorite general, Seeckt nodded with satisfaction and sat down at the table. "Akado has disappointed me greatly," Seeckt said with a sigh after opening the military canteen on the table and taking a sip of water. Hammon was taken aback and looked up at Seeckt. "What happened? Did Lieutenant Colonel Akado mess up the task you assigned…-

In the dim room, a single incandescent light bulb hanging from the ceiling swayed gently, causing the shadows of the torture instruments on the floor to appear somewhat sinister and twisted. "Speak! Are you a communist or not?" a German officer roared menacingly, holding a leather whip. The man tied to the cross slowly raised his head. His gaze was somewhat unfocused, but he still managed a slight shake of his head and answered in a weak voice, "I have Russian blood, but I am a German. I am not a…

Akado was not a man who only cared about his own promotions and fortune. He was also using his position to subtly build his influence within the military. Akado secretly organized different branches within the newly formed Reichswehr divisions, establishing tank units, and covertly promoting qualified officers to be commanders of non-existent forces, while also improving their benefits. Through his efforts, although Germany was not allowed to have its own tank forces, Akado had still given the fledgling…

"What good does it do you to target unarmed people?" Akado asked, his brow furrowed and his tone already hostile. "Other than allowing you to stir up hatred and gain more supporters faster, it does absolutely no good, right?" Hitler sneered. "Me, targeting them? They are the ones who have become the parasites of Germany! They are the ones who made Germany a defeated nation in the First World War! They are the ones who subjected me to humiliation! They all deserve to die!" Akado shook his head. "I never…

It is determined that the commanding officer of the Blue Team's attacking force has been hit!" Two clerks were scribbling notes at a table. Beside them stood General von Seeckt, holding a pair of binoculars. Nearby, Akado was pointing at a battle map, explaining something to the 1st Division's commander, General…

On one side of the round table, several men in suits pounded the tabletop, their faces filled with righteous indignation. In the very center of the table lay a plan bound in a white cover, stamped with a bright red seal. A line of German text indicated that the document was top secret. In the upper-middle section of the plan's cover, its codename was written in bold, named for the god who ruled the underworld: Operation Pluto. On the other side of the round table, the military representatives appeared…

Akado had been a Captain for three months and four days when he received a new letter of appointment. As he sat on the train to Berlin, he was still in a daze—so-called happiness had come too quickly, and he was having trouble processing it. He was completely baffled, unable to figure out why an order would come from Berlin promoting a newly-minted captain, allowing him to catch the last train to becoming a true officer as a major in the new Reichswehr. His promotion speed was arguably the fastest in…

Time flew by, and a year passed in the blink of an eye. Akado seemed to have been forgotten, left by Germany in an office on the outskirts of Hamburg, his only companions two chairs and a brand-new typewriter. This typewriter was purchased with Akado's own salary, making it his private property. The depressed German industry and the nearly non-existent army budget would never have equipped a second lieutenant with such a non-combat-related typing device. During this time, Akado had received letters from…

Under the pitch-black night sky over Germany's capital, Berlin, a single, crisp gunshot echoed, shattering the momentary tranquility. Police sirens wailed soon after. The resonant clang of boots on pavement came from all directions. The coup, long in the planning, had finally erupted in March of 1920. "Which unit are you? State your designation! This is the Fifth District! One more step forward and we will open fire!" an officer shouted from behind a sandbag barricade. "Drop your weapons immediately!…

"Knock, knock, knock." The office door was knocked. Gordon rubbed the sore bridge of his nose to relieve the fatigue from his work and looked up with a hint of resignation. "Come in." In the past few days, he had reviewed approximately five hundred former German army officers, all of whom were to be retained in the newly formed German army. It could be said that every single one had been meticulously selected through multiple comparisons and screenings. This army was arguably the smallest on the entire…
