After leaving Shanghai, Edel visited Guangzhou, Singapore, Mumbai, Alexandria, and Istanbul.
Among them, in Guangzhou, Edel met with Principal Jiang and the people who inspired him to become Jingwei one by one. Regarding Principal Jiang who will be in charge of this land for more than 20 years, Edel has mixed feelings. Speaking of this
He can be regarded as an outstanding person. He can become a leader from the edge of bankruptcy. This is not luck. Vision, means, tactics, and opportunities are all indispensable. Moreover, there are too many ambitious people in this land, which makes it a hell.
average difficulty.
However, perhaps he is too focused on power and tactics and cannot form cohesion for the entire party, so he has always had many opponents within the party. Compared with his current allies and future enemies, he is not as strong as he is. This is why he will be criticized in the future.
The reason for coming to the island.
As for the person who inspired to become a Jingwei, Edel found out during the conversation that this is a person whose ability is not as good as his ambition. It is completely natural that he will lose to the principal in the future.
Now that he knows the future history, of course Edel needs to make good friends with him. As for the principal, he certainly hopes to have a good relationship with this powerful monarch of a powerful Western country. So with both parties interested, the personal relationship between the two quickly heated up.
As for the local red consultants, they were indignant when they saw this.
Edel also took the opportunity to sell a batch of ordnance to the Guangzhou government, regardless of the feelings of the local red advisers and the British who had huge interests in the local area. This batch of ordnance was only the equipment of a division, but this still made everyone in Guangzhou very happy.
Because this batch of ordnance was purchased on credit, how could you not be happy? This continent has a special liking for German weapons, and Romania uses German weapons.
Edel believes that the establishment of the First Army will be accelerated.
So when Edel was about to leave, Guangzhou also held a huge farewell party. Although it did not reach the sole legitimacy of Romania's recognition of its government, this was a good start. And for the new power Romania was so optimistic about itself.
, I believe that the Guangzhou government will definitely report it through national public opinion, at least to make them believe that the Guangzhou government has the ability to become a substitute for Beiyang.
The principal who benefited most from Edel's visit to Guangzhou was the principal. Because Edel's good personal relationship with him could at least help him gain a foothold in the political arena. Maybe this relationship would be of great use in the future.
Edel then arrived in Singapore. This city, which is basically composed of Chinese immigrants, is the pearl of Southeast Asia and the strategic point of Gibraltar in the East. Therefore, the British built a fortress and stationed troops here.
Edel simply stayed here for a while, visiting the local governor and celebrities.
In Bombay, Edel stayed here for a longer time, mainly because he wanted to see what this colony, which was most valued by the British, was like. After all, the British Empire would not surrender until the last Indian died in battle.
Edel found in his local observations that India was indeed different from other places. The people who helped the British rule were mainly the first-class Brahmins, who acted as officials who conveyed the situation from top to bottom.
The Anglo-Indian army, which maintains the local area and is responsible for suppressing rebellions in various colonies, is mainly composed of second-level Kshatriyas. Its upper-level officers are composed of British, and the lower-level basic officers and soldiers are Indians. Although such an army
The combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the European powers, but it is still qualified for use in counterinsurgency and cannon fodder.
As for the third-level Vaishyas and Sudras, they provide financial revenue for the British government. Edel found that these Indians are basically submissive to British rule, and many people have become accustomed to the British's superior rule. As for why India will be in the future
Independence was largely due to the coercion of two rising stars, the Soviet Union and the United States.
Sometimes Edel has to admit that these Indians are really brainwashed by various religions. Although their lives are miserable, they donate their few possessions to temples in the hope that they will live a better life in the next life. They do not even think about the possibility of an afterlife.
, those Brahmins and Kshatriyas are not richer in funds than you, even if you can't afford it in the reincarnation auction, you will still have to vote for the life of a Sudra in the end.
After reading it, Edel sighed, it is a nation born to be ruled.
After leaving Mumbai, Edel arrived in Alexandria, Egypt. He came here mainly for sightseeing. Apart from meeting King Fouad I of Egypt, many people may not be familiar with this puppet supported by the British, but his son must be
He is famous. He is also outstanding in being able to choke to death on food. What is even more talked about is that this king likes to steal things. During the historic Cairo Conference in 1943, Churchill's pocket watch disappeared, and it was this strange king who stole it.
.
After seeing a series of ancient Egyptian masterpieces such as the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the Valley of the Kings, Edel set off for the last stop with satisfaction. He hoped that next time he comes here, he can conquer the Suez Canal as a conqueror.
It's so tempting.
Edel's next stop is Turkey. As a country that controls the Black Sea Strait, Edel currently has no ambitions. There is no way that Bulgaria is separated from him, and he has no place to use his strength. So now to strengthen economic cooperation between the two countries, Edel is
The only thing Del can do. And economic cooperation with Turkey will also have huge benefits for Romania.
As we all know, Romania has developed well in agriculture and heavy industry, but the light industry represented by textiles is somewhat unsatisfactory. This time Edel intends to encourage the development of domestic light industry, which will require a large amount of raw materials. And Turkey
Its wool, tobacco, iron ore, etc. are extremely famous, so Edel plans to discuss economic cooperation with Turkey.
On the other hand, although Turkey and the Soviet Union currently have a good relationship, the two countries had a bloody feud in history. Edel wanted to try to see if he could leverage the relationship between Turkey and the Soviet Union. Of course, Edel would not lose anything if it failed, and Turkey would not be able to do so because of this incident.
Things went bad with Romania.
You must know that the current relations between Turkey and European countries are not good. It is better to have one more friend than one enemy. Moreover, Romania's strength is obvious to all, and the Turkish government will offend Romania only if it is crazy.
Therefore, after Edel's exchange with President Kemal in Istanbul, the founding father of Turkey welcomed the strengthening of economic cooperation. Because just a few years after the war ended, Turkey also needed to recuperate. As for Edel's talk about Soviet Russia
Question, the old fox Kemal did not say a word.
Edel, who knew that his intentions were seen through, was not angry and continued to exchange governance ideas with the founding father. However, the situations of the two countries were different, but each gained something from the exchange.
After Edel stayed in Istanbul for a week, he left by boat.
