Chapter 461: The First United Nations Summit Fifteen
William II, who was feeling uncertain in his heart, was looking at Li Ningyu with his peripheral vision, and suddenly saw Li Ningyu make a subtle movement, and he immediately had an idea in his mind.
"Ouch!"
On the rostrum of the Seventeen-Nation United Nations Stadium, William II suddenly cried out in pain without warning.
This caused Li Ningyu and Edward VII, who were standing aside, to stand up slightly. At this time, one hand was placed on the heart and the other hand was supporting the table. William II showed a painful expression and kept screaming at the same time.
"Emperor William, what's wrong with you?" Edward VII, who was closer, asked anxiously.
"The disease has struck again!" Wilhelm II said this, and then he fainted in his seat.
When such an emergency occurred, the meeting would naturally be temporarily suspended. With everyone and the guards brought in, William II was carried into a car and sent back to Sanssouci Palace for treatment.
But Li Ningyu did not return to Sanssouci Palace together, because he just accidentally discovered that William II was pretending to be ill this time, which immediately made him doubtful. However, as the afternoon meeting continued as usual, and William II
The sudden changes in the world made Li Ningyu understand some of the truth.
As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle, so Li Ningyu insists on doing this no matter when and where.
From historical data, Li Ningyu has a relatively comprehensive understanding of Wilhelm II. After all, he was the head of state of the main participating member states in World War I.
Since William II came to power, his series of actions showed that he hoped that the German Empire would become stronger, but it seemed that he never thought that it would eventually evolve into such a large-scale conflict, let alone use it.
Such conflicts to achieve his goals.
From the Sarajevo assassination incident until the German Empire declared war on the Russian Empire, William II understood that the war was about to break out, so he tried his best to strive for peace. Among them, William II and Nicholas II tried to communicate, hoping
Although he could try to avoid a full-scale war, William II optimistically interpreted the Austro-Hungarian Empire's ultimatum to Serbia. He believed that the Austro-Hungarian Empire would only limit the war to this region.
However, William II's subsequent efforts were too late. Finally, under the advice of his subordinates at all levels, William II ordered the general mobilization of the German Empire and started the Schlieffen Plan at the same time.
In the early 20th century, political leaders from various countries generally believed that World War I was basically "the German Emperor's war", just as World War II was Hitler's war.
But Li Ningyu felt that it was unfair to Wilhelm II, but Wilhelm II had to bear personal responsibility for this, which was a typical historical idealist statement.
Because just when William II signed the general mobilization order of the German Empire, William II said to his subordinates: "You will all regret it!".
However, after the war began, he still competently encouraged Austria to adopt the toughest policy against Serbia. During the entire war, Wilhelm II appointed himself Generalissimo of the German Army.
As the final decision-maker, William II had to bear too heavy a burden. As the war continued step by step, William II relied more and more on the opinions of his subordinates, so that the German Empire turned into a military dictatorship system.
It was controlled by Hindenburg and Ludendorff.
During the First World War, affected by various frustrations and illusions of victory, Wilhelm II often had vacillating strategies. Despite this, Emperor Wilhelm II was still an important symbol of the German Empire.
Can supervise military production, award medals and give speeches to encourage soldiers in war.
But as the German army's final offensive failed, he was about to be surrounded on all sides. It was obvious that ending the war early would be the wisest move. But at that time, William II had already lost all his power because he was dissatisfied with being ignored by his subordinates.
As the supreme power, William II once tried to gain a certain degree of dominance in the crisis at the end of the war. However, after learning that the German army was gone, he firmly supported the German army's total surrender to the Allies. This was to prevent the German Empire from continuing to fight.
Suffered a devastating disaster.
However, after the end of World War I, the Great Revolution broke out in Berlin, Germany. At that time, Wilhelm II was inspecting the German headquarters in Belgium. Faced with this sudden mutiny, he was incredulous and surprised. He did not know whether he should abdicate. However, he believed that even if he was forced to
The title of German Emperor can be cancelled, and the identity of King of Prussia can still be retained.
However, in order to seek political unification, Prime Minister Prince Maximilian suddenly announced that he would directly abolish both titles of William II. At this point, Emperor William II's dream was over. In the end, even Hindenburg, who had supported William throughout his life,
The generals of the second emperor could only persuade Wilhelm II to abdicate.
Article 227 of the Treaty of Versailles after World War I clearly stipulated that William II was directly designated as a war criminal, mainly referring to the crimes committed by William II that violated international morality and the sanctity of the treaty, mainly because
During World War I, Germany took the initiative to invade Belgium, which was permanently neutral.
However, at that time, William II was already in exile in the Netherlands, a country that had always remained neutral during the war. At the same time, Queen Helena of the Netherlands refused to extradite William II for trial and ignored the collective appeals of the Allied Powers. All this was mainly based on the fact that William II and the
A relative of Queen Helena, he spent the rest of his life in the small castle of Doron Manor. Although in the manor, William II exempted him from the monarchical relationship with officials and servants, he never gave up his title.
He once hoped that Hitler would take the initiative to help him restore the German Imperial Dynasty, but the Nazi Party never helped him get his wish. However, for Hitler's successful solution to Germany's political and economic difficulties at that time, Wilhelm II took the initiative to deeply appreciate it. With the German Nazi Party
After occupying the Netherlands, William II officially withdrew from the world political stage.
Just as Li Ningyu was thinking about William II's past life, in a secret room in Sanssouci Palace, William II was asking Princess Louis bluntly: "Louis, why have you and Li been married for so long?
Not yet integrated into one body?”.
Hearing such straightforward words from her father, Louis inevitably blushed with embarrassment, but before William II continued to ask questions, Princess Louis replied in a short language: "Father, the thing is like this...".
And just after this strange conversation ended, that afternoon, William II completely overturned the secret alliance he had agreed with several other countries that had leased land in China, and completely returned to the side of the Far East Group, but
Li Ningyu quickly figured out this uncharacteristic thing.
