Neither broken nor established, this word is very appropriate to describe Germany today.
After the World War, the defeated Germany was characterized as the evil side. This is understandable. The winner should have the right to speak.
Where will the defeated Germany go? This is a question worth thinking about.
Germany currently implements a constitutional monarchy similar to that of the United Kingdom, and the choice of the king is very important in this political system.
Wilhelm II's governance ability has been proven, and Wilhelm II is unable to lead Germany to glory.
Even in the late World War, Wilhelm II did not choose to share weal and woe with Germany. Instead, he abdicated and fled to the Netherlands, abandoning Germany. Therefore, whether legally or emotionally, the German people would never accept such a king again.
.
Qin Zhiyuan couldn't accept it either.
William II was the founder and pioneer of the Yellow Peril theory. No matter what, Qin Zhiyuan could not accept such a person representing Germany.
The relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and William III is good, but in terms of national relations, there is no such thing as loving a house and a bird.
So all the crux lies with William III. If William III insists on not abdicating and allows William II to continue his retirement life, William II will not find any supporters around the world.
Wilhelm II's former allies, such as Nicholas I and Karl I, are already dead. Britain, France, the United States and other countries will not allow Wilhelm II, a war criminal, to return to the political stage.
In this case, what Qin Zhiyuan had to do was to strengthen William III's belief.
So when William III asked Lanfang to help Germany rebuild its civilian light industry, Qin Zhiyuan clearly refused.
Why don't you give free support? Germany will pay. If you don't want gold marks, pounds are fine. William III was indeed surprised.
According to the original agreement between Qin Zhiyuan and William III, Lanfang could take away German machines and manpower, but when Germany needed it, Lanfang had to provide Germany with the same help.
Based on the friendship between Qin Zhiyuan and William III, even if Qin Zhiyuan cannot provide free assistance, he should not refuse it outright.
So after Qin Zhiyuan rejected William III's request, not to mention William III was surprised, even Julie and Cecilia, who were still teasing Qin De, felt surprised, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became extremely awkward.
Listen to me, Frederick, if you are sure that you will always stay in the position of king, let alone civilian light industry, even military heavy industry, Lanfang will help Germany rebuild, even if the British and French will oppose it.
It's useless. This is my promise to you. But the situation is not certain now. If you want to give up the position of king to your father, please forgive me. I cannot accept a German king who is hostile to the Chinese.
Qin Zhiyuan is not just talking, when the critical moment comes, Qin Zhiyuan can really make him look down.
Hearing what Qin Zhiyuan said, Julie and Cecilia breathed a sigh of relief. Julie even reached out to hold Cecilia's hand, letting Cecilia feel Julie's support.
Cecilia is a little older than Julie. Although time has not left many traces on Cecilia's face, the grace and elegance accumulated by the years can still be clearly felt.
Feeling Julie's kindness, Cecilia patted Julie's hand in response, the smile on her face still genuine.
God, I didn't say that I wanted to return the king's position to him. William III covered his face with a face covering to cover his red eyes.
During this period, the pressure on William III was really too great. Although the whole world would not accept William II's return to the throne, for William III, William II was his father after all, and the family ties in the blood were irreversible.
, From a practical point of view, William III could not return the throne to William II, but from an emotional point of view, making such a decision would definitely make William III feel tortured.
That's why William III is so eager to see Qin Zhiyuan. William III wants to find strength from Qin Zhiyuan, the strength to fight against the guilt in his heart.
Very good, if you will always be the king of Germany, Friedrich, Lanfang will always be your ally, no matter at any time. This is the first time Qin Zhiyuan has clearly proposed the concept of an alliance between Lanfang and Germany.
Ally William III was a little dazed, unable to digest the impact of this news for a while.
Judging from Germany's current international reputation and status, Germany cannot find allies.
Germany does have great potential, but the bravery and aggressiveness of the Germans has added too much uncertainty to Germany. Moreover, Germany, which had just been defeated in the world war, is now in unprecedented weakness. It seems that Germany may completely collapse at any time.
, at this time, few people dare to extend an olive branch to Germany.
Again, everyone knows the principle of providing help in times of need, but few can actually do it.
From Lanfang's perspective, if she forms an alliance with the Germans, it means that Lanfang will have to face pressure from the British, Americans, and even her allies, the French. And because of the relationship between Germany and France, this may lead to Lanfang and France
France's breakup, abandoning a powerful country that had won the world war and choosing a defeated country that failed in the world war and didn't know whether it had a chance to rise again, undoubtedly requires courage.
In my heart, we have always been friends, so Lanfang and Germany should also be allies, but it is not yet confirmed, or even if it is confirmed, it has not yet been made public, so I am sorry that at this time
, even if Lanfang gives Germany support, it will probably be quite limited, and we still need time. Qin Zhiyuan looked apologetic.
No, my friend, this is enough. William III was not too little, and he hugged Qin Zhiyuan very hard, almost using up all his strength.
At this moment, William III truly felt the support from Qin Zhiyuan, which was without any pretense or reservation. Even for ordinary people, such support is rare, let alone at the national level. This level of support is rare.
Support is extremely rare, at any time.
Although Lanfang is far away from Germany, you just need to know that I will always be by your side. Qin Zhiyuan hugged William III without much force and gently patted William III on the shoulder.
William III is already forty years younger than Qin Zhiyuan, and is much older than Qin Zhiyuan. It seems that the relationship between the two people is indeed irreversible.
How do you plan to treat your father? After a while, when William III calmed down, Qin Zhiyuan asked softly.
I don’t know. I won’t return the throne to him. I can’t let him bring Germany into hell again, but I won’t treat him harshly. After all, he is still my father. Maybe he will go to the Hohenzollern Castle to live for a while.
Time is better. William III has made up his mind, and his tone contains unquestionable power.
Yes, this is a bit like a king.
Hohenzollern Castle is the birthplace of the Hohenzollern family. It is located in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is the hometown of the Hohenzollern family. Hohenzollern Castle is also the most majestic castle in Germany.
One of the buildings, it is considered a masterpiece of 19th-century fortress architecture.
This is a good idea. Qin Zhiyuan agreed.
No matter how dishonest William II is, William II is the father of William III. Qin Zhiyuan does not want to see a William III who even kills his own father for the throne. Such a William III is not worthy of Qin Zhiyuan.
pay.
Think about it, if William III can attack his own father, how sincere can William III be to his friends?
Let's talk happily. How long will you stay in Europe this time? William III didn't want to talk too much about his family.
Although the battle for the throne of Germany is a major event, it is also Germany's internal affairs. To say the least, this is William III's family matter. William III does not want too many external forces to intervene in his family affairs, even if Qin Zhiyuan is William III's
Neither can good friends.
Europeans still attach great importance to it. Whether it is an individual or a family, Europeans hope to solve it behind closed doors.
In fact, the same goes for Easterners. Orientals also have a saying that family scandals should not be made public. Relatively speaking, it is not easy for Easterners to grasp the concept of distance in interpersonal interactions. Many times, Easterners seem a bit over-enthusiastic.
A month or two. I will go to the UK and then back to France after a while. As you know, President Deschanel is not in good health right now, so we have nothing to talk about yet.
Qin Zhiyuan did not conceal his whereabouts.
Lanfang is still too far away from Europe. It is a rare visit. Qin Zhiyuan will visit as many countries as possible. Even if he does nothing, it would be good just to strengthen exchanges.
Haha, I heard a little bit about Mr. Deschanel. William III finally found someone to laugh at.
Just the day before yesterday, the British Times suddenly broke the news that the French president fell from a train while attending an event because he was standing on the window and booing.
Although the Times report was a bit fanciful, it was true that Deschanel fell from the train.
The French government expressed its dissatisfaction with The Times to the British government on the same day. Although The Times destroyed all unsold newspapers and apologized to the French government, the impact had already been caused.
This news immediately triggered the gossip mentality across Europe. Except for the French, almost everyone ridiculed the French president as a casual conversation piece. Various jokes came into being, and some newspapers even
The old story of Deschanel and Emperor Taisho booing together at a state banquet was also brought up.
Well, Qin Zhiyuan had long expected that this would happen.
