Paris, Ministry of War, Lyautey's office welcomed an unexpected guest.
Good day, Your Excellency, Minister. The visitor has a big belly, a suit, a top hat, a bow tie, and a civilized look. He has a relaxed and carefree look, as if he is back at home.
Good day, Mr. Donahue. Lyotey looked amused.
Lyotey knew Donahue, who is a current member of the National Assembly and is now a member of the Finance Committee established by the Parliament. He has a close relationship with Prime Minister Paul Perlaway. He is a republican in the Socialist Party and has a relationship with the radical wing to which Lyotey belongs.
Discord.
Although Lyotey and Donahue both belonged to the Socialist Party, they had not had much dealings with each other before. Although the relationship between the two could not be said to be the same, they were just acquaintances. Because of this, Lyotey immediately felt towards Donahue.
To be more vigilant when visiting, to use an Eastern proverb, this is called: don’t go to the Three Treasures Palace no matter what.
Please forgive me, Mr. Minister, for disturbing you on this sunny day, but I have to make this trip because of those damn soldiers under your command. Donahue's family has a long history and was a noble during the Bourbon dynasty, so he raised
And civilians always habitually use a contemptuous tone.
Donahue was not only frivolous in his language, but also unruly in his behavior. Donahue stood in front of Lyotey's desk, reached out and casually moved the globe on Lyotey's desk. Watching the globe spinning rapidly, Donahue smiled very much.
Being happy is like having the world at your fingertips.
This is Lyotey's office. As a guest, Donahue playing with the owner's things is a very impolite behavior, just like making loud noises in the restaurant and unscrupulous smacking while eating.
Regarding this issue, I think you should go to Reggie Castle. Although Lyotei was impatient, he could only deal with it. This is part of his job.
The Castle of Redieri is Nivele's hometown. After Nivele was dismissed, he returned to Castle Redieri to recuperate. Lyotey gave Nivele a new appointment and ordered him to go to North Africa. Out of sight, out of mind. Nivele
Nivelle's choice was not unexpected. He said that he was very ill and would not be able to take office in the short term. Lyautey was not in a hurry. He gave Nivelle an unlimited period of time. He could go back when he recovered.
The point is that you must go.
Of course I will go. I still have a question to ask him. The French government gave him the power to win victory for France, not to waste the lives of soldiers. Donahue is the standard Virgin bitch.
Of course, this was a question that all French people wanted to ask him. Lyautey was noncommittal.
Well, now I have another question to ask you. Mr. Minister, please explain your relationship with that angel. Donald Xiutu looked at the picture with pride and arrogance on his face. Although he used honorifics, he did not
No respect at all, standard aristocratic hypocrisy.
Is there any problem? Lyote asked back.
Of course there is a problem. I was told that you gave the Far Eastern overlord the weapons that belonged to General Pershing's troops, causing our friends the Americans to be very unhappy. Why did you do this? Donahue put his hands on Lyotey.
On the desk, his body is leaning forward, his eyes are sharp, and combined with his huge body, he looks very imposing from the side.
Just looking at it from the side, although Donahue wanted to make himself look as powerful as possible, he didn't look intimidating at all because of his fat body.
Even in the early 20th century, it was still an era where faces were judged. The life of a fat man was full of tragedies. This is really a tragic story.
When did Americans become your friends? Lyoté answered the question.
The relationship between the United States and Europe is very strange. When the American continent was first discovered, those who left Europe for the United States were either poor settlers who could not survive, or desperadoes and criminals. Therefore, before World War I, Europeans had
Americans are despised, and Europeans look down on Americans. Even though Europe is now involved in this unprecedented war, France and the United Kingdom need blood transfusions from Americans to survive. There are still many conservatives in France who look down on Americans and think
Americans are upstarts and barbarians. This is racial discrimination among white people. Donahue is a representative of those conservatives.
It’s no wonder that Americans advocate equality and freedom, because the United States has suffered from discrimination and criticism since its birth.
This has nothing to do with this matter. Now please answer my question. Donahue couldn't help but blush.
As a nobleman, arrogance and pride must be possessed, and integrity and firmness must also be emphasized. Although Donahue deviated from the creed of integrity, he still felt ashamed when someone pointed it out to his face.
Are you asking me this question on behalf of the Parliament, or on behalf of yourself, or on behalf of Mr. Prime Minister? Seeing that Donahue still knows how to be ashamed, Lyautey decided to save Donahue some face.
Does it make any difference? Donahue wants to fight for rights.
There is a big difference. If you represent the parliament, then I will go to the parliament to accept the question; if you represent the Prime Minister, then I will go and explain to the Prime Minister; if you represent yourself, then I have no comment. Since I am giving face
Shameless, Leotey is also welcome.
Please tell me what your attitude is. What you are facing now is a member of Parliament who represents millions of voters in a constituency. So please answer my question directly, Mr. Minister. Donahue deliberately emphasizes the power of members,
This is why they want to overthrow the emperor.
The reason why the nobles overthrew the emperor was not because they loved democracy, but because by overthrowing the emperor, they could live the addiction of the supreme leader.
You are right, but I also remind you that you do not have the right to question me directly. I am responsible to Mr. Prime Minister, and Mr. Prime Minister is responsible to Mr. President, and Mr. President needs to be responsible to the Parliament. Do you understand that he represents millions of people?
Mr. Member of the electorate, before you exercise your rights, please confirm the scope of your powers. Lyautey does not mind teaching this Mr. Member who does not even understand the responsibilities of a Member of Parliament a lesson.
Whether it is the democratic government of the French Republic or the government of the Bourbon dynasty, the hierarchical relationship is very clear. Even if Donahue is one of the members of the highest authority, Donahue has no right to directly find fault with the military. Lyotey can
Tang Naxiu entered his office and was already very proud.
In fact Lyautey had decided to change his secretary soon.
In any case, the secretary cannot be the person who decides who Lyoté sees or does not see. This is not within the scope of the secretary's rights.
