"Well, open a military academy that teaches special operations... Ludwig, this is a good idea. △↗If we can train 1,000 Hungarian officers who have mastered the fur of guerrilla operations, the Allies will suffer a lot in Hungary!"

In the car heading to Charlottemberg (Major General Forbeck was arranged to live in a villa near Charlottemberg Palace), Hessman sat in the passenger seat and discussed with Major General Forbeck and Captain Shiple's appointment to train guerrilla officers in the military academy.

Major General Forbeck admired Hessman's idea very much. His success in East Africa should be replicable. Moreover, he was not the first soldier to use guerrilla warfare to attack powerful enemies. The Spanish once used the same method to make Napoleon's army fall into the quagmire. The Boers in South Africa also used a small amount of troops to cause considerable casualties to the British Empire. What reasons can the Spaniards, Boers and African blacks do? In Europe, the Magyars are also considered a nation that is more capable of fighting.

And training Hungarian guerrilla warriors is just the beginning. If the special operations school can succeed in Hungary, it will be able to export guerrilla warfare experts to other parts of the world in the future. For example, Turkey, which will be divided, India, which was enslaved by the British, or China, which has become a semi-colonial one.

"We ourselves also need to study special operations, not only guerrilla warfare, but also special forces." Hessman said his thoughts, "Infiltration, sabotage, assassination, and of course, preventing the enemy from carrying out the same combat operations... These operations are not carried out by guerrillas who have only been trained for short periods, but by elite officers and soldiers who have been strictly selected and trained for a long time, with special equipment and tactics."

"We have carried out similar operations in East Africa," Captain Shipur said with some smugness. "In 1915, I often led small troops into British East Africa, attacking the weak defense of Uganda railways and bridges, and achieved many results!"

"That's amazing!" Hessman said in a complimentary tone. "We don't do this much in Europe, at least I don't know that there are successful battles in this regard. We just squatted behind trenches and barbed wire, shooting at each other with cannons and machine guns. I believe that the pattern of the next war is definitely not like this!"

"What will it be?" Major General Falbeck asked with interest.

"Maybe there will be air forces that can determine the outcome of the battle. There may be thousands of tanks rushing on the battlefield, and there may be mobile warfare like a major general who will fight in Africa. There may be countless soldiers who will jump directly from the plane in the sky to the rear of the enemy's positions..."

"Using a parachute? It's a good idea." Captain Shiple narrowed his eyes, "Maybe it's not certain that it can be realized."

"It will definitely be realized," said Hessman. "The internal combustion engine was invented by us Germans. It only appeared more than 50 years ago. At the beginning, it only had 4 to 5 horsepower. Now there is an internal combustion engine of 200 horsepower... It seems to be 200 horsepower. It has increased forty or fifty times in more than 50 years. If the horsepower of the internal combustion engine increases ten times and twenty times in the next twenty or thirty years, the war will definitely not be like this! And we are going to start studying this matter now, and study it from different aspects."

It is not Hessman's turn to study how to fight mechanized wars. He is not the Chief of Staff or the First Military Control Commission, nor the Director of the Strategic Operations Department. He is only the head of the military intelligence department, but special operations happen to be under the jurisdiction of the Military Intelligence Department.

"Ludwig, what do you think about special operations?" Major General Folbeck asked a question while thinking.

"There are many," Hessmann had already begun to study this matter, and Stasi also had a special special operations office. "Special operations should be divided into several categories: one is elite special operations, composed of a small number of elite soldiers who have been strictly trained, and undertake particularly important combat tasks behind enemy lines, such as assassinating political leaders, destroying important facilities, and attacking enemy command or logistics centers..."

"You are familiar with this, Theodore." Major General Folbeck turned his head and said to Captain Shiple.

"The second is guerrilla and light mobile operations, including the launch, organize and command of guerrillas and the construction of guerrilla bases behind enemy lines and the construction of guerrilla bases behind enemy lines; the third is to organize and command light field corps merged from guerrillas to carry out mobile warfare..."

Hessman continued to talk about his ideas. He was a Junker officer with a professional background in this life and had a very rich knowledge of trench warfare. However, his knowledge of guerrilla warfare and lightweight mobile warfare comes from memories of later generations.

Don’t think that guerrilla warfare and lightweight mobile warfare are tricks that cannot be used as a prestigious move. As a Juncker elite officer, Hessman knew very well that there is no distinction between the methods of combat, only whether it is suitable and whether it can be won.

“As far as I know, in addition to your experience in East Africa, the Soviet Union is currently using the same approach,” Hessman said carefully. “We have reports on this, they organized guerrillas in both Siberia and the Far East. And they have sent civil war experts to our Germany to support the German Bolsheviks.”

"Damn!" Major General Folbeck cursed, "Isn't anyone going to deal with them?"

"Of course somebody will pull them out and beat them to death!" Hessman said, "but this is not the job of a special technical school... Major General, in fact, our special technical school will be jointly organized with the Russian Bolsheviks."

“Join with the Bolsheviks!?”

"They paid most of the funds and provided civil war experts as teachers in the school," Hessman said. "This is also an opportunity to learn from the experience of Soviet guerrilla warfare... Our people pretend to be Hungarian students to study. We can also observe their teaching and study their teaching materials. In addition, we can also obtain the necessary experience and lessons through the Hungarian War."

"But they will learn all our abilities, too." Major General Folbeck said gloomyly.

This special technical school was originally a Russian-German military cooperation project. Hessman talked with Borotin for several hours yesterday afternoon before finalizing the specific terms of cooperation, including cooperative school management, funding allocation, guerrilla technology exchange and foreign student training.

Support for the Hungarian revolutionaries will be carried out by the cooperation between the two sides. However, the only one on the surface is the Soviet Union. Anyway, the Soviet Union is not afraid of hatred. Lenin and others were going to export the revolution. All German consultants who were active in Hungary must retire from the army in advance, and they will be hired by the Hungarian authorities in their "personal name".

"Not all, only guerrilla warfare and lighter mobile warfare," said Hessman. "This is what Hungary needs at present, and the operation of special elite troops will be conducted in a secret base in East Prussia (actually Kurland), and has nothing to do with supporting the Hungarian resistance. Theodore, are you willing to accept this mission?"

Captain Shiple said half-jokingly: "Of course, I'm willing to serve, but you have to promote me."

"No problem, this matter is for me." Hessman replied with a smile, "Major General, what about you? Are you willing to be the principal of a special technical school?"

"I do!" Major General Folbek shrugged, "It is my mission to help the Hungarians resist the Allies... Even if the Hungarian soldiers are Bolsheviks, as long as they can attack the Allies!"
