Chapter 247: After World War I, ask for a monthly ticket) 5300 characters
"Kingsman? Secret service organization?" Kai looked at the plan in front of him and felt a little dizzy. He didn't quite understand Lao Fu's logic. He was still fighting for his noble status two days ago. How could he set up a secret service organization in such a blink of an eye?
Is it a conspiracy to overthrow the British government? If this is really the case, Kai has no problem with it. The British government is not his relative, so if it is overthrown, it will be overthrown. But the problem is that if it is really done like this, ordinary people must not be affected?
Ah Fu knew as soon as he saw Kai's expression that he was thinking wrongly. So he quickly explained to Kai the position and program of this secret service organization. Finally, he also explained the source of inspiration for the establishment of this organization. "I have been following you for a while.
, we have experienced a lot and understand the many dark sides of this world, so we hope to do something within our power to prevent the world from falling into such a crisis again."
When Kai heard this, it was good. Kai, who was born in the military, didn't like politicians very much by nature. Sometimes those people can appear to be very far-sighted, but sometimes they can't understand the situation. For example, when the First World War broke out, these politicians can't
I added a lot of fuel and vinegar to it, otherwise the battle wouldn't have been so brutal.
"So what are your regulations?" Kai asked with some interest.
Regarding the detailed structure of the Kingsman organization, Lao Fu and a group of nobles had already discussed it for many times, so when faced with Kai's inquiry, Lao Fu started talking without even a word. Not to mention, a bunch of people
He has indeed worked hard for a great goal, and what he said is very clear and feasible.
The only thing is...
"You want my Holy Grail?"
"No, no, no, we just hope that you can be our leader. We believe that under your leadership, this organization will not deviate from our intended track." This sentence is true, but there is also some selfishness in it. "
We will inherit the chivalry spirit of you and our ancestors, and take the world as our own responsibility to carry out this great cause!"
The great Afu of the Holy Grail has the most say. Since being revived by the Holy Grail, he has felt that he is different from other people. To put it simply, his power is two to three times that of ordinary people, and his reaction ability is even more
He is incredibly tall. Although he is not a superman, he is definitely far above the average person.
It is also because of this that they focus on the Holy Grail. Of course, they are well aware of the shortcomings of the Holy Grail, but they don't care. For the great goal, they can accept certain sacrifices.
Kai doesn't care much about leading this secret service organization. Lending the Holy Grail is not a big deal to him. That thing has no special meaning to Kai, and its effect is not as great as expected. Kai's physical fitness
It was destined that few things in this world could really hurt him.
…
In the days that followed, Kingsman's organizational structure was quickly set up. All agents were selected by Ah Fu and others from among the noble soldiers. In order to better form this organization, Ah Fu borrowed almost all of the agents from Kai.
All the manpower, including Bedouins and guardians, was insufficient, and even Americans O'Connor and Daniels were borrowed.
Only Raven and Catherine stayed with him.
In fact, it was of no use leaving so many people around Kai. With the arrival of 1918, generally speaking, humans did not have much energy to create trouble. Because everyone was focused on facing a bigger trouble.
Spanish Flu.
When Kai heard about the flu for the first time, he didn't take it seriously. As a time traveler, in the time and space he belonged to, the flu was not uncommon at all. It basically happened once or twice every year.
But Kay underestimated the flu, or overestimated the medical capabilities of this era.
What Kai didn't know was that the Spanish Flu was also well-known in his own time, but few people in their time had heard of it. Legend has it that it was this flu that accelerated the end of the war.
Influenza broke out in a military camp in Kansas, USA, on March 4, 1918, followed by influenza in China, Spain, and the United Kingdom. At that time, the symptoms were only headache, high fever, muscle aches, and loss of appetite. But in the autumn of 1918,
Massive outbreaks around the world.
In August 1918, influenza spread in the United Kingdom. Unlike previous influenzas, the Spanish Flu had a particularly high mortality rate among young adults aged 20 to 35. In addition to high fever, headache, and blue complexion, the Spanish Flu
and coughing up blood, etc.; influenza often causes complications and leads to death, with pneumonia being the most common. By November, London had begun to restrict citizens from going to public places, and cinemas, dance halls, sports venues, etc. were closed.
Now, almost everyone is wearing a mask and staying at home.
The London government was already struggling due to the flu and post-war negotiations, which gave the Kingsman organization an opportunity to develop. Although some people had already noticed this organization, because Kay's platform and the government no longer had the energy to manage it, the organization was left behind.
The prototype was established in just over two months.
After the Kingsman Organization was established, its first task was to investigate the Spanish Flu.
When influenza broke out in the UK, the Duke of Oxford, the main founder of Kingsman, had already organized experts to conduct research. They were surprised to find that among a thousand patients, there were more than 300 viruses, which meant that on average there were only 1,000 viruses.
Three out of three viruses overlap!
This has brought the so-called specific drug research to a complete standstill.
Even if a specific cure has not yet been developed, the expert team formed by the Duke of Oxford has also come up with a possibility that makes all Kingsman gentlemen tremble.
This virus, named H1N1, is a brand new virus that can replicate, recombine, and then evolve into a new virus. Such a weird virus has never been found in nature, and it replicates almost every time.
Recombination, rather than recombination and mutation after thousands of copies.
This is exactly what's scary about it. The constant mutations mean that it is impossible to develop targeted specific drugs. After extracting virus samples and conducting in-depth research, the expert team was surprised to find that this virus is very likely to be a virus.
Plant semi-finished products! They seem to be incomplete and are still in the stage of continuous evolution. As the mystery continues to be revealed, the expert team made a bold hypothesis, that is, the influenza virus did not come from nature, but was developed artificially by outsiders.
If it comes out, then all these unusual characteristics make sense. These are all set up by man!
This discovery made everyone think of biochemical warfare for the first time!
In the World War I just ended, Europeans had already seen the power of biological and chemical weapons. Germany had been conducting research in this area, which made the Kingsman gentlemen immediately think that this was done by the Germans.
ghost.
But the subsequent investigation left a group of people dumbfounded. Germans were also infected with this virus, and there were still many infected people. If the virus was developed by the Germans, they seemed to have no reason to spread it in Germany. That would not be a move.
Are you going to shoot yourself in the foot with a stone?
Kingsman then turned his sights to where the flu first appeared - the United States!
The first cases of the Spanish Flu were discovered in a military camp in Kansas, USA. It just so happened that there was a chemical plant not far from the military camp. Not only that, just before the influenza occurred, there was also an outbreak in this chemical plant.
A leak**.
This forced the Kingsman gentlemen to set their sights on the United States.
What makes these gentlemen even more suspicious is that the United States has been stirring up trouble in Europe during this period, and is very motivated to overthrow Britain from its position as world hegemon. They continue to advocate the policy of "national self-determination" and want all
The colonies are independent!
The Americans are poking at the foundation of their colonial empire! Once the colonies are allowed to become independent on a large scale, will Britain and France still be world empires? Britain and France without their colonies may still be a big country, but they are definitely not considered a great power. Most of them
All the strength lies in the colonies!
The Americans have really good ideas. As long as they overthrow the colonial empires, they will be the bosses of the new era. With a move of national consciousness, they can dismantle most of the world's powerful countries. Unfortunately, they have forgotten the consequences once the window paper is pierced.
It is very serious. Their proposal has disgusted not only Britain and France, but also the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, and Japan. Who is not glaring at them now!
So in the late stages of the negotiations, the United States was ostracized by European groups. This is why many people say that the United States did not obtain the corresponding status after World War I.
Even Kay, a political idiot, felt that Americans were crazy after seeing the information sent back from Versailles.
So when it comes to being the mastermind behind this flu, Americans really have this motive. After all, others have always wanted to compete for world hegemony.
Kai is a little unconvinced by this conjecture. It’s not that the U.S. government has high integrity, but that it’s not worth the gain. At this stage, the U.S. economy is the world’s largest, and its industrial output and output value are also the world’s largest. As long as it develops patiently,
, will one day become the world's most powerful country, why bother to cause so many things. You must know that once this matter is revealed, the United States will most likely be humanely destroyed by all countries in the world.
It’s totally unnecessary!
But Kay also agreed to Kingsman's request to investigate. It would be more reassuring to investigate this kind of thing. What if there is really a madman who intends to do this? It's better to believe that it is true than to believe that it is not.
In fact, at the beginning, Kai was prepared to investigate by himself. Unfortunately, Lao Fu disagreed. He thought that if Kai had to do everything, what should they do? Is it fun to leave it alone?
In addition to promoting and ensuring that the aristocratic spirit does not deteriorate, the creation of Kingsman also means to deepen the relationship with Kai. To put it bluntly, the aristocrats use Kai as a cover to tell others that they are not easy to mess with. It is a foregone conclusion to weaken the aristocracy.
, they have nothing to say, they can only say that their skills are not as good as others, and the loopholes have been taken advantage of by the capitalists. But if they want to continue to weaken the strength of the nobles, they have to think carefully.
In fact, due to the formation of Kingsman, the cabinet has been restrained a lot. Even the king has sent people to contact Kingsman. As for what to do... the ideas of politicians are very complicated, and most people can't guess it. Anyway, Kai doesn't know
I didn't care what George V wanted to do. It was just some transactions.
In this way, Kingsman's generation of agents began their first mission.
…
The time is February 3, 1919.
Kingsman's investigation finally revealed part of the truth. The United States is indeed the main source of the virus! But according to Kingsman's investigation, the U.S. government was not involved, and even they did not know that there was someone under their noses.
Research biological weapons.
The person who conducted this research was an underground organization called 'Cobra', which had extremely powerful forces in the United States. In order to eliminate this underground organization, Kingsman's first-generation agents were almost wiped out. If it hadn't been for the final
Kingsman contacted the U.S. intelligence agency through Daniels and O'Connor, and together they attacked this organization. If not, Kingsman's operation would completely fail.
This time the U.S. government was almost scared to death. If Kingsman hadn't discovered this underground organization, the U.S. would have been very likely to be blamed. By then, not to mention world hegemony, would the U.S. be able to exist in this world?
Everything is an unknown quantity.
In order to respond to and eliminate the Cobra organization, the U.S. government hired Daniels, O'Connor, and Steve, who had just bid farewell to Diana and returned to China, to form a new intelligence agency. However, the intelligence organization soon split. Daniels and O'Connor
Because Na wanted to copy Kingsman and set up a completely independent intelligence agency, he had an extremely unpleasant conflict with Steve and the US government.
So Daniels and O'Connor left the intelligence agency and went to Kentucky to open a winery together.
In addition, I would like to say that after the war, Steve finally plucked up the courage to confess his love to Diana. Although Diana was very moved, she still rejected him. Well... Kai didn't interfere in this matter at all. In fact,
The relationship between Diana and Kay fell into a cold war after the Battle of Athens, and she was still dissatisfied with Kay's sacrifice of those comrades. So Diana did not follow Kay back to London at all, but stayed in Greece.
The U.S. government was very interested in Diana, and once hoped that she could serve the U.S. government, but in the end Diana disappeared, perhaps returning to Paradise Island. In short, Steve and the U.S. government searched Paradise Island again, but unfortunately found nothing.
The coordinates of Paradise Island previously saved by Steve proved to be invalid.
Anyway, back to the subject, although the Cobra organization was defeated, according to Kingsman's investigation, it was just a branch of Cobra. No one knew where their main body was. Kingsman investigated the funds of the chemical plant that researched biological weapons.
Sources, it was found that almost most of the funds came from Europe. When Kingsman came to Europe to investigate the sources of the funds.
All clues have been eliminated, and all insiders and information about the flow of funds have been eliminated.
This time all the clues were lost.
But this also proves from the side that Kingsman's existence is necessary. Kai can deal with many human enemies, but he can't do anything about human beings seeking death. For example, the Cobra organization. If Kingsman hadn't investigated it, Kai would probably have spent his whole life.
No one knew this organization existed.
The agents who survived this mission also received what they deserved, the Holy Grail Baptism. They became the guardians of the world at the cost of their souls.
Also to reward Kingsman, Kai transferred his Bedouin warriors and Guardian warriors to Kingsman. These soldiers were absolutely useless as agents, but they were more than enough as an armed strike force. In any case, agents were also
It's not a panacea.
As for the Daniels and O'Connor wineries in the United States, Kay did not have a second Holy Grail to hand over to them, so he simply provided a large amount of financial support, and Kingsman was also obliged to provide a large amount of necessary support to the wineries.
Yes, the winery is also a spy organization, but they are hidden deeper.
…
On June 28, 1919, the Treaty was signed at the Palace of Versailles in Paris. This treaty was recognized by the League of Nations and officially came into effect on January 10, 1920, which also marked the official end of the First World War.
This treaty is similar to what Kai knew in his previous life. The only difference is that the United States really got nothing this time. Because of the Spanish Flu, the United States was not having an easy time internationally this time, and even had to take the initiative to give
Debt relief and debt relief for various countries is a huge hemorrhage.
Not only did a lot of people die, but they also gained everything. Even if they didn’t gain political voice, they didn’t even make much money financially.
This caused President Wilson to be impeached immediately after returning to the United States. If the upper echelons of the United States had not known the whole story and preserved Wilson, it is estimated that he would have become the first president in the United States to be impeached and removed from office.
There is no way, this time the United States was caught by the international community! The Spanish Flu should have been called the American Flu! This virus was created in the United States and leaked in the United States. If it were not for the conclusive evidence that the US government was not involved
Among them, coupled with the fact that the US government has also contributed a lot to this matter, the US government has long been humanely destroyed.
This also led to the fact that the U.S. government began to vigorously support Germany, allowing Germany to rise earlier than in history. It also led to the fact that after the outbreak of World War II, the power of the Germans far exceeded its original historical trajectory.
However, Kai was not interested in these things. After two years of training in London, Kai began to become very restless.
What he is most interested in right now is the most popular photo in London.
This photo was brought back from the Amazon rainforest in South America by the controversial Professor George Challenger in London. It was a photo of a pterosaur! At the same time, he also brought back a diary, in which
, describes a prehistoric civilized world. George Challenger returned to London and wanted to persuade other scientists of the London Zoological Research Society to believe in the existence of this prehistoric civilized world.
Kay asked Kingsman to investigate, and Professor George Challenger did not lie. At least he himself firmly believed that this prehistoric world existed.
This piqued Kai's interest.
So Kay funded Professor George Challenger's expedition and planned to personally participate in the adventure. He was very curious about the place where dinosaurs could survive. He was also accompanied by 'Hunter' Roxton and 'Reporter' Malone.
, 'rich woman' Margaret and 'atheist scientist' Arthur Samray formed the expedition team.
At first, everyone thought it was just a ridiculous adventure game, and Kai was just curious.
Even Kai's personal maids Catherine and Raven thought it was just Kai's temporary interest, so they didn't insist on going with Kai. They thought Kai would come back soon.
But unexpectedly, the expedition team quickly lost news.
For a year or two, people were still looking forward to it. In any case, Kai was so powerful that nothing could harm him. Everyone thought it was just some accident, or some major discovery, which led to
Kai was obsessed with it.
But no one would have thought that in the next few decades, no news would come out about this expedition.
