The so-called literati and artists are undoubtedly the most self-righteous people in the world. They think that art knows no borders. War cannot destroy monuments and works of art.

In fact, no one in the real power cares about their opinions. The first thing they want is to make sure that they can win this war, which is undoubtedly the most important thing. As for the rest, it doesn't matter at all.

However, with the impetus of Britain and France, as well as the encouragement of the United States, the whole world is watching the brutality of the German army in Paris. True, some artists have come to regard the German attack on Paris as a barbarian, even a beast. The major newspapers around the world were accusing Qin Tian and the German army that attacked Paris. Countless artists jumped out to denounce Qin Tian and their behavior of destroying civilization.

Even in Germany, there was a big shock. German artists, hundreds of people jointly wrote a letter to Kaiser Wilhelm II, demanding that the German army stop the attack on Paris, and some even demanded that Qin Tian be severely punished, preferably removed from the position of crown prince.

"Your Majesty, this is the third letter of protest I have received. The artists were very dissatisfied with the behavior of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the army in Paris. Shall we appease them? "At the Imperial Council, Prime Minister Bernhardt? Feng? Billo said. For the past two days, he has been completely overwhelmed by these protests.

"Pacify them? Why appease them? Your Highness is leading our army to fight bloody battles with the enemy on the front line, and these guys, hiding in the rear to have fun, are now jumping out to blame His Highness and the army, which is simply too much. Have they forgotten who they are? War Minister and Chief of General Staff Falkenhayin said dissatisfied.

Seeing that the Imperial Army was about to capture Paris and defeat France, it was a great achievement. Those guys jumped out, didn't they deliberately look for trouble? What's more, artists from other countries are making a fuss, and they are actually making a fuss, have they forgotten that they are Germans?

"Yes, Your Majesty. For the current empire, finding a way to win the current war is undoubtedly the most important thing. Paris was an important city for the Empire that had to be captured. After the defeat of Paris, the French will to fight is probably about to be broken. Even if they want to keep fighting. However, their will to resist should not be too strong. What's more, if the French lost hundreds of thousands of troops in Paris, they would not have much strength to continue fighting. Therefore, not only can we not stop the attack on Paris, but we must support His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in their actions. The Minister of the Navy, Marshal Count Tirpitz, also said.

Obviously, the attitude of the emperor is clear. In times of war, the defeat of the enemy country is the most important thing. As for other cultures and arts, they all have to stand aside.

Wilhelm II nodded, and of course he knew what was important. In his opinion, the behavior of those artists is completely untroubled. It was Paris that was ruined, and it had nothing to do with them. The French and the British are making a fuss, and that's understandable. But if they make a fuss, it would be so undeserved, this is completely not seeing themselves as Germans!

"Gentlemen, of course, Paris is a very beautiful city, a city of culture. However, in order for the empire to win this war, even if Paris is destroyed, it will not hesitate. What our troops are doing in Paris is completely justified and deserved. All this is a conspiracy of the British and French. "Wilhelm II made his attitude clear.

It is clear that Wilhelm II would have preferred victory in this war to the cultural city of Paris. As for Paris, if it is ruined, it will be ruined, it is not a big deal at all.

"Your Majesty is wise." Marshal of Count Tirpitz and von? Marshal Falkenhayin and the two immediately said.

"Your Majesty, what are we going to do with those artists? If they are allowed to make a fuss like this, I'm afraid it won't be a solution! Every day, they publish articles in the newspapers, criticizing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and attacking the Imperial Government, which will undoubtedly have a very negative impact on the reputation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Imperial Government. "Bernhardt? Feng? Prime Minister Bilow said.

Wilhelm II couldn't help frowning, if Qin Tian's reputation was damaged, it would have a very negative impact on his future succession to the throne of German emperor.

"I've got to find a way to stop these guys!" Wilhelm II said.

"Is there anything you can do?" Wilhelm II asked.

"Your Majesty, we may be able to divide and strike a group of people. I believe that there are a large number of those artists who are truly virtuous artists. However, there are definitely people who have been bought by the French or the British. We can attack them and expose them to the whole nation. In this case, those artists will naturally have no face to make trouble anymore. "Feng? Marshal Falkenhein suggested.

Wilhelm II nodded: "That's a good idea." The War Department will take care of this. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Feng? Field Marshal Falkenhein nodded.

Feng? Field Marshal Falkenhein knew that it would be too easy to deal with the artists. Don't look at how much trouble they make, but in front of the state apparatus, especially in the face of violent organs such as the army, they are completely vulnerable. He had many, many ways to deal with them. Even if they were not bought by the French and the British, they could be framed as long as they were framed. In front of the state apparatus, they did not even have a chance to justify.

"Your Majesty, what about international public opinion? In addition to the two hostile countries, Britain and France, other neutral countries, such as the United States, also have many statements that are not conducive to the empire. "Foreign Minister Feng? Kidren? Vahit said.

"Needless to say, Britain and France are all their intrigues. As for the rest of the country, if they want to make trouble, let them go. This will not have any effect on the strength of the German Empire. Once the empire wins this world war and becomes the world hegemon, if they dare to do this, don't blame the empire for being unkind. Wilhelm II said domineeringly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Feng? Kidren? Vahit said.

Indeed, if Germany won the final victory in the war and became the world hegemon, would other countries still be able to target Germany in this way? Even they themselves probably don't want to anger Germany because of this.
