The name of German Ambassador Merkel reminded Lin Youde of the politician with the same name in the last time and space. ◎Smart children remember to type updates very quickly. ◎But Lin Youde did not know what Merkel looked like in the last time and space when he was young.
No matter what, there is no way to tell whether this Merkel is the one who was born decades earlier.
Merkel has a very typical German appearance and demeanor. He is obviously well-trained in military affairs and behaves like a loyal soldier in every move. He has a Marx-like beard, which makes him look older than his actual age.
older.
But Lin Youde has never cared about a man's appearance - he's not gay, so why should he care about that.
It's a pity that there is not a single girl in Merkel's entourage.
Lin Youde has been in Beijing these days, and many envoys from various countries have come to visit him. They will all agree to Lin Youde's favor and bring a beautiful girl with them. The Italian ambassador even brought his wife and daughter, and then the two ladies
He has no great talent and cannot resist Lin Youde's halo. The Italian ambassador was given a green hat.
It is precisely because of this that Merkel, whose entourage is composed entirely of men, appears to be particularly unique - as the saying goes, rare things are valuable.
"Mr. Merkel." After the usual greetings and diplomatic rhetoric, Lin Youde went straight to the point, "If I guess correctly, you are here for Russia, right?"
In the previous one-sided wave of condemnation, only Germany acted quite ambiguously and did not issue any diplomatic statements that were too strongly worded.
Lin Youde felt that the Germans might have mastered something.
The Germans were not ambiguous. Seeing Lin Youde go straight to the point, Merkel nodded boldly and answered straight to the point: "That's right. We know that the weapons used by the Russians were not provided by Mr. Lin. His Majesty the Kaiser provided such weapons
It is deeply disturbing that it is in the hands of a group of lunatics from the National Socialist Party."
Lin Youde thought that this was indeed the case, but he pretended to be surprised on his face.
"What do you mean by this? Do you think I don't have the technical ability to develop such a powerful weapon?"
Merkel grinned and demonstrated what it means to be "smiling but not smiling" and then replied in a stereotyped tone as if she were reciting lines: "Even if you had such weapons, you would not use them like this. First, you know Vlad
The Soviet regime in Divostok has always had second thoughts. You will not give this weapon to them; secondly, someone has previously assassinated Bolshevik operatives in major Russian cities with purpose. We speculate that this
It is most likely your handiwork. Obviously, you do not want Russia to be unified, so it is impossible to provide Red Russia with weapons that disrupt the balance of power."
Lin Youde had just praised in his heart that he was indeed a German. Merkel's next sentence almost made Lin Youde spit tea in the face of the German guests.
"Third," Merkel said, "Mr. Lin, you love the beauty of Shen Ji so much that you would never use them in such an ugly way. If this is really what you did, your wives will never agree.
"
Lin Youde returned, but at the same time he was keenly aware that saying this meant that the Germans knew what the bomb in Tunguska was - at least they knew it was related to Shenji.
"Mr. Merkel" Lin Youde hesitated for a moment, but decided to finish what was on his lips and asked, "Are you of French ancestry?"
"I am a pure Aryan." Merkel proudly replied with her head held high.
"Then there must be someone in your staff with French romantic blood." Lin Youde waved his hand as he spoke, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. That's right, we did not provide that kind of weapon to the Red Russia - I mean.
Soviet Russia in Vladivostok. We are also working hard to search for information about this weapon. But so far we have not gained much."
"Then" as soon as Lin Youde finished speaking, Merkel couldn't wait to say, "I think it is more necessary for us to cooperate in this area. Because of some historical reasons, we have some special intelligence channels in Russia. We
We probably know whose research results this kind of thing was. And we have been paying close attention to this person’s movements since a few years ago.”
Perhaps because Lin Youde did not have the expected reaction on his face, Merkel seemed a little anxious. He moved forward in his chair, twitching his goatee and was about to speak. Lin Youde beat him to it.
"Mr. Merkel," Lin Youde picked up the teacup on the table, opened the lid and blew some air before continuing slowly, "You came all the way here not just for intelligence cooperation?"
Merkel was silent for two seconds before nodding.
"Of course." He cleared his throat, "I just mentioned that His Majesty the Kaiser is very worried about the powerful weapons possessed by Soviet Russia."
Lin Youde snickered in his heart. Of course he, Germany, was worried. Russia's main industrial areas and troop source areas were in Europe. To attack the Far East would be an expedition. After Russia was unified, it would have such a big killer weapon in its hands. It would definitely attack those closest to it first.
Germany and Austria are taking action. Germany, Austria, Turkey and the Ottomans have a lot of territory that Russia has coveted for a long time. No matter what flag it hangs, this polar bear will not forget these interests.
Seeing that Lin Youde was silent, Merkel continued to state: "Furthermore, the Bolsheviks intend to liberate the workers. They regard all wealthy people as class enemies. Once they gain power, they will inevitably cause problems among workers of all countries - a situation that we are not willing to
You can see the impact. In addition, the Bolsheviks hate the goddess and regard the goddess as a symbol of class privilege, so they mistreat the captured goddess in this way. I think you know this better than us.
"Therefore, His Majesty the Kaiser is worried that they will use such a terrifying weapon that tramples on the dignity of the goddess to completely destroy the current world and destroy everything we hold dear. This is something His Majesty the Kaiser will never tolerate."
Through Merkel's words, Lin Youde understood several points. First, the Germans had their own channels. They knew that the bomb was related to Shen Ji and had nothing to do with Lin Youde; secondly, the Germans did not know how many Russians had such bombs.
Planting bombs, they are worried that they will be the next unlucky ones to taste the bomb. They are eager to solve this threat, but they are afraid of the bombs in the hands of the Russians and dare not do it alone.
So they approached the Chinese Federation. In their opinion, the Chinese Federation should also be troubled by this bomb threat, so they were more likely to cooperate with them than the British far away at sea.
The German guy's idea was generally correct, and Lin Youde also felt that it was not a problem for the Soviet Union, which was not very obedient, to leave it alone, especially after they had that thing in their hands.
But the problem is that the Chinese Federation is currently in an alliance with the United Kingdom. It is obviously inappropriate to join forces with Germany to fight against the United Kingdom without asking the British attitude.
In addition, Lin Youde is about to raid Professor Wagner's home. With luck, he can eliminate the threat of the Shenji bomb in one go.
So Lin Youde thought for a while and decided that he should use some excuse to delay the attack until we see the results of the raid.
So he said: "Mr. Merkel, I deeply understand the Kaiser's concerns, but I am only the Minister of the Navy. This kind of national level... uh, vertical and horizontal alliances, I don't think so."
"Sir Lin, His Majesty the Kaiser believes that your will can be regarded as the will of the Federation to a certain extent."
Lin Youde curled his lips. In the last time and space, Kaiser Wilhelm had offended other countries in diplomacy because he spoke carelessly and could not turn his head. Unexpectedly, he still had this problem in this time and space.
Lin Youde could only touch his chin and change his excuse: "In addition, our Federation of China and the United Kingdom are in an alliance. Once our country declares war on Russia and enters a state of war, the United Kingdom will also be dragged into the water by us. If the United Kingdom does not declare war together, our alliance with the United Kingdom will
There is a risk of rupture, so we need to confirm the UK's response."
"In that case, Germany is willing to provide an alliance with more favorable conditions."
Lin Youde said in his heart that if you spare me, entering into an alliance with you means standing on the opposite side of the British Empire. Regardless of what will happen to the British, my family will have to let me shed my three layers of skin.
Lin Youde glanced at the German ambassador. He felt that this guy was going to be stubborn and forced himself to take sides today. He suddenly felt extremely big-headed. Although Lin Youde was in alliance with Britain, he actually planned to sit back and watch the show from across most of Eurasia.
In the end, he jumped out and became a fisherman - just like the Yankees did in history.
But now the Germans suddenly forced her into the palace, which left Lin Youde at a loss as to what to do.
Yes, it's impossible. No. He still hopes to sell the Germans car recorders, radios, and refrigerators, and then exchange marks for German industrial machines, German technology, and even German mechanics.
Just as he was in a dilemma, an idea suddenly came into Lin Youde's mind.
"Mr. Merkel, we may not be able to cooperate with your country militarily to eliminate the threat from the north. However, we have a way to temporarily take away the Congnius gun from the Russians. In Russia
After the people have temporarily lost their secret weapons, His Majesty the Kaiser's troops can occupy Moscow with great arrogance."
Merkel frowned. After thinking for a moment, he asked: "So, how can we be sure that you have really disabled the secret weapon in the hands of the Russians?"
"It's simple." Lin Youde gave the Germans a smile like a weasel's New Year greeting. "His Majesty the Kaiser can send a trustworthy goddess to participate in our actions and supervise them throughout the entire process."
At this time, the German ambassador, who had always given a rigid impression, finally showed a normal human expression on his face, which conveyed the message: Are you cheating on me?
Lin Youde grinned at the Germans, feeling very happy. He, Lin Youde, had already put forward a proposal that looked pretty good. If you Germans don't accept it, that's your business. No wonder he, Lin Youde, made it happen.
Merkel was silent for a while, then shook her head and said: "Okay, I will convey your proposal to His Majesty the Kaiser."
When Lin Youde saw that his plan had succeeded, he couldn't help but be a good boy: "If His Majesty the Kaiser is worried about sending the precious goddess to me, he can send a noble and trustworthy lady to come to me in the name of vacation.
To supervise our actions, I think German Empress Wilhelmina is quite good."
Lin Youde openly ridiculed the royal family's women, which made Merkel look embarrassed, so Lin Youde wisely shut up.
**
After the Germans left, Josephine, who had been observing the meeting, asked Lin Youde: "What will you do if Queen Wilhelmina really comes over?"
"Do you still have to ask?" Lin Youde smiled at his wife, "Of course I will take her heart away, and then..."
Josephine smiled and raised her hand to gently push Lin Youde's shoulder and said, "Do you really want to hold an expo for princesses and queens from all over Europe?"
"Of course. When have I ever made a joke about something as big as this?"
When he said this, Isabella just opened the door and walked in, so the genuine former Queen of England shook her head and sighed: "I sometimes wonder if I took the wrong medicine to fall in love with such a frivolous guy.
"
Lin Youde laughed happily and said, "It is a man's dream to have three thousand beauties..." (To be continued...)
