Whether this was true or not, after the Great War to end all wars (presumably...), his parents managed to sent him to school, than high school, and he was accepted in the army. He displayed truly noble abilities in mastering new languages, whether these were the language of friend or foe, which helped his career and guaranteed him lots of trips abroad. He also excelled in the noble art of dropping to the ground, full believing that noblemen should survive before they are to win a battle. Given his temper, subject to both noble boredom, during which he showed great propensity for drinking enough beer too drown his supposed ancestors' knights retinue, and a temper which often leads to brawls (and a couple of duels he bears scars from), he was sent abroad even more often than is usual, just because nobody wanted him around. After the Nazi came to power, one of his personal enemies (one should wonder why he took a few scars from a brawl so personally, given that he gave Ulbrecht other scars during the duel) rose in the ranks. Luckily, he was too preoccupied, so he just sent him abroad, in the worst hole on Earth he was able to imagine, where Germany had some interests. "I believe you would fit well with the locals, von Bernhard. Your new assignment is as a military advisor with our allies from the KMT, in Shanghai!" Well, he did fit with the locals. It was almost a dream city, where beer was cheep, money came fast, and nobody paid so much attention to broken heads, especially if you're an important figure. Ulbrecht was carousing with the locals, which the Chinese allies approved - most of them approved carousing, too. He met all sorts of interesting people, including his new aide, a former Red Russian soldier, and an Australian smuggler and drinking buddy introduced him to local criminals. They approved of carousing, too, so Ulbricht considered them interesting people, if not good ones. Life was good. Goals: *To avoid boredom! Women are fun, and so is drinking with friends (and brawling, too, but it comes naturally with drinking and women, so you don't have to look for it). *To gain wealth and put his rivals to shame. Wealth equals respect, and respect is what matters! The means are secondary. *To "do what is right for a noble" (at the time, this is making his Chinese troops better prepared and able to survive future combat). Please note he has a somewhat romantic idea of how real nobles behaved. Childhood propaganda (a.k.a. tales) is not easily forgotten.
