The story begins in 1944, when Dexter received orders from Hitler to lead nearly 10,000 people to the fortress of Montafer, and before he could gain a foothold, he was attacked by an ambushed Allied army, and the unprepared Dexter men held their heads to hide, and the so-called defeat was like a mountain, which was such a scene of embarrassment. But Dexter, as an Imperial soldier, had the idea of becoming a man if he didn't succeed, not to mention that his wife was still under house arrest at Hitler's hands. Desperate, Dexter thought of suicide, and only suicide could free him, and there was no better way to save his wife from Hitler.

Just as Dexter was about to commit suicide, he received a letter from his wife, Royce, which read: Dear Dexter, there is an unfortunate news that cannot be said, I also left this world when you received this letter, it was I who hid you, I had cancer, my condition suddenly deteriorated, I also knew that I would not live long, and after writing this letter to you tonight, I would swallow the sleeping pills I usually accumulated... Let's stop there... Farewell dear Dexter.

After reading his wife's letter, Dexter pounded his chest and was devastated, and the soldier who defended his country with his own rank as a German army general could not even protect his wife, and what face was alive, he immediately took out the pistol he was wearing and prepared to commit suicide. But at the moment when the trigger was pulled, Dexter suddenly thought, if I die so hastily, what will happen to my 10,000 brothers, and in an instant he figured it out, since his wife is dead, there is no worries, I am desperately fighting for Hitler on the front line, not to mention detaining my wife, you are not merciful to me, simply lead the troops to surrender to the Allies, you can also save the lives of so many of my brothers.

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone and called The Allied Admiral Fasser, asking us to surrender unconditionally.

On this side, Hitler also received the news of Dexter's surrender to the Allies, he was so angry that he immediately ordered him to go down and immediately shoot Dexter's wife, Royce, when Hitler's men rushed to royce's room, it was already empty, it turned out that that night, Royce packed everything up, under the protection of Dexter's former old subordinates, got on the car prepared in advance, and had already arrived at the Allied camp to see her dear husband, in fact, Royce did not have cancer, There is no so-called sleeping pill to find short-sightedness, this letter is to hoodwink Hitler and make Hitler let down his guard, and second, to remind his husband to see Hitler's face and stop fighting for him.
