Wensley Churchill bursts into the Queen's chambers.
"You ordered preparations to attack Tibet?"
"Yes." The queen seemed to be in a good mood. She raised the goblet and took an elegant sip of the red liquid in the glass. "Of course, she is just preparing to attack. The Chinese regard Tibet as their own territory.
, but no one recognizes it internationally, and the local ruling class is also at a distance from the central government. In addition, at this point in time, China's main external force is on the Pacific coast. Yuan Shikai will not send troops to fight us, but if Lin Youde wants to send troops,
His supply lines have to pass through Sichuan and other provinces with which he has a bad relationship. I think this is a perfect plan, and the West is just around the corner."
"Then what?" Wen Sili put her hands on her hips and stared at the Queen with a sharp gaze that completely violated the etiquette between monarch and minister. "After the independence of Spain, will we get mines, market or labor force? Who are you going to let go?
Local investment?”
"Wen Sili?" The queen looked very surprised. Ever since she regarded Wen Sili as her best friend, this girl who gave many distinguished gentlemen in the empire a headache had hardly ever spoken against her, but at this time she showed her true self.
The characteristics of "independent conservatives", "After supporting the puppet regime in Tibet, we can push the Royal Army's military base to the hinterland of China. This has military significance..."
"Yes," Wen Sili interrupted the Queen, "and for this 'military significance', we have to pay millions of pounds every year to maintain that supply line, because that place where birds don't shit can't support a sufficient supply line.
The British troops are threatening China! And these millions of pounds will not make any profit! Dear Isabella, what we should do now is to win over the Chinese and fight against Germany. The center of the world is in Europe, and Asia can wait for us to solve it.
Germany will take care of it. Instead of ordering the troops in India to start preparing to invade Tibet, it is better to order the navy to start bombing Hamburg tonight."
The Queen looked at Wen Sili who spoke a lot impassionedly, with obvious displeasure between her brows.
"Wen Sili, if you leave China alone..."
"Yes, I also admit that leaving them alone is a big problem." Wen Sili interrupted the queen again, "In this case, wouldn't it be better to directly order the local fleet to attack? We have 30 battleships, and the other side only has 2. Back then, you did it for
We spent so much money just to show force and send the entire fleet to sail around the world. Now we spend the same amount of money to send the fleet to that small island and blow up all Lin Youde’s family assets. Isn’t that the end?”
Wen Sili's words obviously choked Isabella, and she stared at Wen Sili but couldn't say a word.
Wen Sili also stared at the Queen. After a moment, she smiled, with an obvious hint of ridicule in her smile: "Ah, I understand, you are afraid! Afraid that Lin Youde has something powerful in his hands, and then he will just deal with the Russians.
Clean up the fleet you sent out! Everyone is used to Russia's defeat, so even if they are defeated by the Chinese, it will not affect their international evaluation. It is just a big bear with repeated defeats. But Britain is different, arrogant
If the British Lion is defeated by the Firebird who has just emerged from Nirvana, he will lose his position as the world's hegemon, and the glory that never sets will never be seen again! So you are afraid!"
In the last time and space, Winston Churchill was a genius in speaking, but in this time and space, although his gender has changed, and "Dun" has become "Li", his speaking skills have not deteriorated at all.
"So what should we do? The great queen has thought of Tibet. As long as she does a little bit of diplomacy, the international community will regard Tibet as an independent political system, and then the terrible Lin Youde's army and Tibet will be separated by the people who are not on the right path with him.
Province. In this way, China can be taught a lesson without taking any risks. Even if the army is defeated and comes back in despair, as long as the glorious Royal Navy is still there, Britain will still be Britain, right? "….
Isabella's lips were trembling slightly, and it was obvious that Wen Sili's words were serious.
"If I were Lin Youde, your majesty, I would definitely take out some new toy when the British army attacks Tibet, and use the British Asian fleet to attack. After annihilating the Asian fleet, the navy will bombard all the way along the Indian coastline, and do
There is a tendency to land on the coast of India. When the time comes, my respected Majesty, will you send out a home fleet or humiliately sign an armistice treaty? You were already so afraid before you were sure whether Lin Youde had new weapons. After he showed
What will you do with the new weapon? What can you do?"
"Then what if..." the queen finally spoke, "what if you were me? How would you deal with the situation in front of you?"
"I will send him a personal letter and recruit him to be my son-in-law."
Wen Sili's words made Isabella's face turn green and red. After a moment, she shook her head and sighed.
"I think I understand why the Prime Minister and others hate you so much. The most annoying thing about you is not your tone and attitude, but your correctness. You are actually right. This is too unbearable."
"So……"
"The order to attack Tibet has been issued. I don't want to give my subordinates the impression of changing the order overnight. However, after the attack begins, I will order them to retreat at the appropriate time. Wen Sili, I promise you that we will not station troops in Tibet, nor will we
We will not support puppets, we will only reach an agreement with them that is more symbolic than practical. The purpose of this battle is to tell the international community that we, the UK, are still the boss."
Wen Sili stared at the Queen for a few seconds, shook her head and gave up.
At this moment, Isabella remembered something again and asked: "Where is the genius you said you wanted to recommend to me before?"
The queen's question made Wen Sili look embarrassed.
"That matter... I have already told that person, but she said that you have not been forced into a desperate situation and it is impossible to give her enough trust, so I will not consider it for the time being."
Isabella raised her eyebrows.
"What do you mean I haven't been cornered yet?"
Wen Sili shrugged.
"I think it refers to the situation where the Germans or Chinese are about to land in Britain."
After Wen Sili finished speaking, the queen laughed happily.
Wen Sili also grinned apologetically, but her eyes did shine thoughtfully.
After finishing laughing, Isabella suddenly said: "Your last suggestion just now was quite good."
"That's just a joke. It's impossible for the Queen of England to marry a yellow man."
"Yes, it is indeed impossible for me to propose marriage to Lin Youde, but you can."
Wen Sili trembled all over and looked at Isabella in astonishment, while the latter laughed happily again.
"Look at your appearance! I was just joking. But, Wen Sili, next time you give me advice, be gentler, or I will really order you to marry off."
