The news that Manila had been captured was a big shock to Amadeo, and it suddenly activated his psychological emergency mechanism, which was to stick his head in the sand and choose not to believe it. Vertex Novel Ｘ 23 Ｕ Ｓ． COM
In psychology, this is called self-isolation, which is a way for humans to protect themselves. This mechanism is more serious and can lead to direct coma.
The king was about to overturn the table. He roared and walked away from the banquet, leaving a group of Chinese and Savoy court officials here stunned.
What kind of negotiation tactic is this? Do children quarrel? Wang Ju wanted to protest at that time but Xiao Letian stopped him.
"Give our king some time to think. I think tonight's negotiations will end here..."
A dinner party ended awkwardly. The palace attendants led the guests to their respective rest rooms, and the continuous music inside and outside the villa gradually became quiet.
Leaning against the window, Xiao Letian saw outside the huge model of Rome. Countless actors were leaving after the curtain call, disappearing into the darkness in groups.
Xiao Letian leaned on the soft duck-down mattress and quietly thought about how to communicate with such a lead poisoning patient. It seemed that direct threats would not work. It would scare him. What if this lunatic refused to ascend the throne? All plans have to be adjusted.
How could the king be allowed to recognize Chinese rule over Luzon without angering or frightening him? This is really a big problem.
Even after thinking about it, I couldn't fall asleep. I tossed and turned like a fried pancake. The duck down mattress that I used to sleep on now felt like it had thorns.
"Forget it, I won't sleep anymore!" Xiao Letian got up and looked at his chest. It was now half past two in the night.
At this time, we went to visit Lake Geneva. The head of state was really a strange guest. He walked out of the villa and alerted many guards. However, under Xiao Letian's order to keep silent, his trip did not affect too many people.
"Dim the lights, don't disturb others, I'll go to the lake to get some fresh air... I just need the Dragon Guard to follow me. This is Switzerland and the most peaceful place in Europe. It's not that dangerous!"
Walking on the streets of the city of Rome, the Alpine wind carried the water vapor of Lake Geneva and hit us head-on. Waves of chill came over us. Xiao Letian only brought four dragon guards to follow him from a distance, and no other officials were brought with him.
As I was walking, suddenly a deep voice sounded in front of me, "Stop! Password!"
"The flying dragon is in the sky!" A dragon guard whispered tonight's password and then immediately asked, "Your... password!"
A Chinese secret whistle flashed out from the darkness on the opposite side. He saluted the head of state and whispered, "The dragon lurks in the abyss!"
The passwords were matched, which proved that it was safe at this moment. The head of state's security work must not rely entirely on the Europeans. As soon as the accompanying German Guards and Chinese special forces arrived in Geneva, they divided their areas of responsibility with the local defenders. Those who were close to the security were Chinese Soldiers, and the next level down are the German special forces.
Amadio's men are the outermost ones, and the Swiss garrison can only be the fourth outermost circle.
Three dragon guards walked past the secret whistle, and one of them suddenly smiled and said, "It's you, postal madman, Wang Chen!" It turned out that this dragon guard and this secret whistle were still friends.
Xiao Letian was originally focused on the sparkling lake in front of him, but suddenly he was stunned when he heard this bizarre nickname. He stopped and turned around and said, "What? Postal Madman?"
"I see you are very familiar, Lieutenant! Very familiar..."
Wang Chen, the secret sentry, was extremely excited and stood at attention and saluted, "Reporting to the head of state, I once stood guard for you in Borneo. I am not far from you in several bloody battles in Europe. You have seen me several times!"
"Ah! I have an impression. What's going on? Why did they give you such a weird nickname? Postal Madman?"
Wang Chen was a little embarrassed to speak, but the Dragon Guard who was familiar with him spoke for him, "Yes, this guy is a postal maniac. When he doesn't go anywhere with the large army, the first person he goes to is the British." The post office!”
"He bought all kinds of books and souvenirs locally and mailed them to Borneo through the British post office... This kid is crazy about eating swan meat. He is pursuing Minister Huang Wanxia of Borneo!"
"Ouch!" Xiao Letian became interested. "This is still a love affair! You are just a second lieutenant now, and you are pursuing the Minister of Education of Borneo. Where do you get the confidence?"
Wang Chen said unconvinced, "Although I am a second lieutenant now, for this European battle, I already have a second-class individual merit and two collective first-class merits!"
"In addition, the troops participating in the European war this time are all specially mixed troops, and they are all officials appointed with compressed military ranks. The company commander in the Chinese team is down to the platoon leader, and the platoon leader is down to the squad leader. The squad leader can only be a small soldier!"
"Once we return to the country and end the mixed formation, everyone's military ranks will be restored. In addition, with this military merit, I will be a lieutenant even if I am not a captain!"
"As long as I reach lieutenant or above, according to my age, I should have a chance to go to a military academy for free! I don't believe it. I won't be promoted to a colonel in ten years?"
"By then, am I still not worthy of her? Besides, even if I'm not worthy, so what, it can't stop me from pursuing her! You all say that I am a toad, but I am willing to be a toad! You can control it Are you here?"
Xiao Letian was amused. "Haha, I have ideals and ambitions...but the British post office is very valuable. Your cross-continental parcels cost a lot of money, right?"
When it came to Qian Wangchen, he scratched his head in embarrassment and stopped talking. The Dragon Guard who was robbed for nothing then laughed and said, "It's not just a lot of money, he is simply a prodigal!"
"He spent all his military salary and wife money. Not only was the postage too expensive, but the gifts he bought were also expensive. In Sri Lanka, he spent fifty dragon-patterned silver dollars just buying gems..."
"In Egypt, I also bought local ancient books and spices. When I arrived in London and Berlin, I bought a lot of landscape albums, animal and plant specimens, postcards, books, oil paintings, etc...."
"He has already borrowed all the money from his brothers, and even borrowed twelve large silver dollars from me!"
"It's not like I won't pay you back! Look at how stingy you are, I cashed out all my winnings and will pay you back tomorrow!" Wang Chen said angrily.
"Look, I'm not asking you to press for debt, that's what I mean... You have to do what you can when chasing women. Have you spent thousands of silver dollars on this? You only have more than 20 silver dollars a month. Military pay! Aren't I worried about you?" Long Jinwei retorted angrily.
Xiao Letian was also stunned, "Have you spent thousands of silver dollars?" You must know that this world is an era of gold and silver standards, and the purchasing power of currency is very high!
The weight of the Chinese silver dollar imitates the Mexican Yingyang and Yuan Datou in the previous life. That is real silver!
An income of twenty silver dollars a month is already a middle-class income, and one thousand silver dollars is enough to buy a house in Sijiu City! This Wang Chen is desperate to pick up girls!
Note: Today is the birthday of book friend Wang Chen. Happy birthday, big animal!
The plot of "The Postal Maniac" was originally going to appear later, but I heard it was adjusted and placed earlier today because it's your birthday!
Have a good time picking up girls, brother, I wish you many wives and concubines!
