The Austro-Prussian War was the first time that Xiao Letian and his new army showed their prominence in front of the world. Who among the veterans who were lucky enough to participate in that war can forget it.
"I will never forget that the entire Prussian nation, men, women, old and young, all threw themselves into the oven of war..." Xiao Letian said excitedly.
"In all the cities in Prussia, long queues filled the recruitment halls. Young faces walked into the recruit camps accompanied by their parents, and the training chants were deafening..."
"There are voluntary speakers at almost all crossroads, the boxes for collecting war funds are slowly being filled, and the passionate scholars and students can mobilize the blood of hundreds of people with every encouragement!"
"Prussia is very poor. They are not rich. The wealth of the people is far from that of Britain and France. However, these poor workers and farmers who are reluctant to eat more coarse bread can donate their savings for free to them. Country and nation!”
“All factories work overtime, and almost every worker has to work more than eleven hours a day. There is no rest day or overtime pay. In their eyes, they only see the mountain-high government orders and the ardent desire to win! "
"On the railway, rows of steam locomotives pulled coal, iron and industrial products, roaring forward on the earth. The power of industry condensed here and became the blood vessels of Prussia. The large industrial areas were the heart of the empire!"
"Those of you who have not seen that scene cannot understand the high national spirit of Prussia at that time! As long as there are troops marching past on every road, you can see the people spontaneously gathering together and cheering! That is from the bottom of my heart Love their army!”
"Why is this happening? Because the glory of nationalism has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, because all the Prussian people, from the sixties to the young, understand the truth. If you want to live a good life, you must defeat the enemy on the battlefield!"
"Resources and money don't just fall out of thin air. Who among the wolves is stronger and who can get more? Gathering the strength of the same nation to achieve a great cause. Europeans understand this truth, but most Chinese people don't understand it! "
Xiao Letian paced around the cabin impatiently, unbuttoning his collar as he walked. Finally, he pushed open the porthole to let the cool North Sea breeze blow away the dirty air in the restaurant.
"Xiang Ying is not wrong. No matter how fierce the partisanship is, Benjamin and Gladstone will not make fun of Britain's core interests. The island of Ireland is Britain's core interest, and no one will allow it to be divided..."
"But our plan still has to go on. Overthrowing Benjamin is a matter of life and death for us, and we can't do it without a dirty hand! In general, my plan is to use the chaos in Ireland to give Gladstone an excuse to attack Benjamin..."
"But we can't really make the anti-British forces in Ireland bigger. Gladstone will definitely go crazy if it gets out of control! The best thing is that when Gladstone comes to power, he can still control the situation in his hands. It is his credit that the situation in Ireland has been suppressed..."
Wang Ju took a deep breath of the sea breeze and said, "Hmm...I understand. Does that mean that the anti-British forces in Ireland are just a tool in our hands and we have to throw it away after use?"
Xiao Letian smiled awkwardly, "I'm afraid it's not as simple as throwing it away. It should be sold after it's used up... It's a bit unkind, but there's nothing you can do about it. This kind-hearted person in this world can't survive!"
The meeting has now come to an end. Everything that should be known to everyone has been arranged. Asking for things that should not be known to everyone is in vain.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Xiao Letian issued a strict order for his generals to go back and rest immediately. They must save energy for tomorrow's diplomatic heyday.
The generals began to pack up their notebooks, grabbed a few midnight snacks, and began to disperse to their cabins. At this time, King Yi and Fangguan also stood up and prepared to leave.
"Brother, I am going to leave London tomorrow. There is one of our intelligence ships on the high seas now. I am going to direct the members of the Foundation to connect with the anti-British forces in Ireland. How can I dare to neglect the task you gave me?"
Fang Guan also knelt down and saluted Xiao Letian, "Master, I'm getting off the ship too. When I get back, I will assign new tasks to my sisters. Don't underestimate these girls. They have collected a lot of intelligence..."
Xiao Letian smiled and waved his hand, "Go, go... You have all become Europeans, and I will have to rely on you in the future!"
Just when Fangguan and Yi Wang were about to leave the restaurant, Wang Huaiyuan, who had just finished sorting out the meeting minutes, suddenly said, "Huh? Fangguan, are you leaving? I just told you that the three-month journey is tiring, and the head of state needs to Rest, you should wait for the head of state to go to bed today, who asked you to leave?"
The words came out like a gust of cold wind blowing through the restaurant, and everyone present was stunned.
Wang Ju had indeed reminded Fang Guan just now, asking her to drink less and asking her to wait on Xiao Letian later. But no one took it seriously, thinking it was just Wang Ju's ordinary concern.
But when Wang Ju said these words for the second time, everyone present suddenly became embarrassed.
It's already past eleven o'clock. What does it mean to ask Fang Guan to serve the head of state? Even a fool would know that Fang Guan should be asked to serve him in bed. Originally, she was Xiao Letian's maid and his roommate. In addition, Xiao Letian had not touched meat for more than three months. At this time, such a charming little beauty was asked to serve him. ?
It would be strange not to wait for sparks to come out!
Everyone suddenly had weird smiles on their faces, looked at each other and walked out without saying a word. Only a few people such as Xiang Ying and Cai Bixia showed confused expressions.
As soon as he walked out of the restaurant, Cai Bixia pulled Xiang Ying aside and whispered, "What does Wang Ju mean? How could he say such a thing in public? Isn't this deliberately embarrassing Fang Guan?"
"I don't know, but with Wang Ju's character, he shouldn't do such a dishonorable thing! There must be something wrong here, it's related to the master's privacy, so don't pry, let's go...leave quickly!"
Xiang Ying's analysis is absolutely correct. Wang Huaiyuan is the most profound senior official under Xiao Letian, otherwise it would be impossible for him to manage such a critical CIA.
Xiao Letian was also stunned. He really didn't expect that Wang Ju, who had always been calm, would actually say such a thing, and even his mind was hung up for a moment.
Fangguan's face turned red and red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon it was as if she had been injected with chicken blood. She stood there awkwardly. If there was a crack in the deck, she would definitely get through it.
However, Wang Huaiyuan looked like a different person today, with a calm expression as natural as if he was explaining what to eat tomorrow morning.
"What's going on? After staying in Europe for several years, why do you not understand the rules so much! I want to rest, why don't you go and make the bed and fold the quilt and wait for others to take care of you?"
"Go and stay in the Führer's cabin!"
