As a representative of the Albion uprising miners, Adam Mike Donald traveled to Ireland across the sea, to Limerick, known as the capital of miracles. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info He had the privilege of visiting London when he was younger, and he was very impressed by the city that the British proudly called "the center of the world", and the Irish capital today cannot be compared to London at its peak in terms of area and population, but it is simple and atmospheric, clean and smooth modern style, and the brisk pace and firepower of the bustling atmosphere, all of which amazed Mike Donald.

Ships, aircraft, and automobile manufacturing are the backbone of Limerick's economy, and after visiting the bustling port shipbuilding area and popular factories, Mike Donald and every member of the Welsh delegation lamented the prosperity of the place, if it were not for the destruction of Britain's domestic industry and overseas trade in the war, it would not have been the turn of the Irish to be so nourished, but the turn of history and the change of times are so cruel. Those who lived through the peak of the British Empire knew in their hearts that thriving industry meant a prosperous economy, and a prosperous economy often meant a strong country, and that the Kingdom of Ireland under Joachim I was indeed on a path to prosperity.

During their stay in the Irish capital, Mike Donald and the others were given a day of free time, and each received 20 A.D., which is about $5 at the current exchange rate. They can take any means of transport to any part of the city, talk to anyone they meet, buy from any shop or vendor, and visit any open venue. This day of free movement removed all doubts about the city in their minds, for it was unlikely that the Irish would be able to disguise every place and every inhabitant, and Limerick was as well supplied and orderly as they had seen. In some inconspicuous corners of the city, traces of the bombing of the British army at the beginning of the war can still be seen, but whether it is the oncoming pedestrians, the citizens resting on the side of the road, or the itinerant newsboy vendors, there is not a trace of anger or sadness on their faces, and their words and deeds reflect an unfettered nature, calmness and peace, they are polite to each other, but not overly polite like the Londoners, they are very friendly to strangers, and there is no Londoner arrogance at all. More than a million simple and industrious Irishmen live and work here, and it is the Welsh who do not know what to do and what they talk about the most......

Under the efforts of Joachim I, and under the tireless persuasion of Welsh official propagandists, the besieged Welsh insurgents laid down their arms and returned to their homes, and the unrest in Wales came to an end for the time being, but the sharp contradictions were not fundamentally resolved. The Welsh government, loyal to Joachim I, selected volunteer representatives from among the insurgents and ordinary residents and organized them to visit the Kingdom of Ireland. Although fellow miners were generally concerned that this was a trap from which to go, Mike Donald resolutely joined the first group of visitors. What he saw and heard in Limerick had a far greater psychological impact on him than he had previously expected, and in the dead of night he recalled the King's speech that day in the town of Norva, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

Cities are an important window into a country's reality, but they are by no means the whole story. Bidding farewell to Limerick, the Welsh delegation traveled to all parts of Ireland, from the poorest central and southern parts of Ireland to the north, where religious conflicts once erupted, with farms overgrown with crops, pastures, cattle and sheep. From 1916 to 1934, 18 years and a generation of growth, Ireland developed from a poor and backward country to a country with convenient transportation and equal emphasis on workers and peasants. Being able to overcome the dilemma of internal and external disturbances, and being able to walk out of a shortcut to rapid development, is absolutely inseparable from the courage and foresight of the ruler and the meritocracy and dedication of the manager!

All of this made Mike Donald and his companions feel more and more convinced. Of course, there were still some among them who scoffed at the changes in the Kingdom of Ireland, which they did not mention compared to the great cause of the Red Soviets, and even described Ireland as an upstart who made his fortune on the rewards of the Germans, believing that the development of Ireland depended on the support of German capital, and that if the Germans suddenly withdrew their funds, the country would soon be beaten back to its original shape.

Mike Donald, who is nearly fifty years old, has no higher education, but he is not a blind man, he has his life experience, he has his independent thinking, he knows what reality is, what dreams are, and he knows that the distance between dreams and reality may be farther than the earth to the moon. Even in the first decade of the twentieth century, when the British Empire reached its pre-Fall historical peak, the industrial environment, the social order, and the happiness of life based on it did not reach the level of the Kingdom of Ireland today, and the antagonism between the elite and the common people had existed for a millennium, and unless it underwent a subversive reconstruction, this antagonism could not be eliminated and there would be no real equality. As for the ideal country depicted by those Russian volunteers, after all, it is only a theoretical prospect, whether it can become a reality, and how long it will take to become a reality, I am afraid that no one can pack a ticket.

The night before the end of the trip, the Irish side arranged several films for the tour, the last of which was a documentary reflecting the development of the Irish army and its battlefield performance, showing the evolution of this armed force from the period of the War of Independence, the era of peaceful development to the Second World War in a visual way. There was no doubt that the Irish soldiers had to show half the bravery of the battlefield to bleed the poorly armed Welsh rebels, but they did not do so, and they tried their best to exercise restraint throughout, so much so that during the Welsh unrest, the Irish army suffered more casualties than the rebels.

After watching this silent documentary, Mike Donald's heart couldn't be calm for a long time.

At the end of the tour, the Welsh group took the train to Cork Harbour, from where they were ready to board the ship back to Wales. At Cork Harbour, the hosts prepared a sumptuous lunch for them, and as the lunch drew to a close, an Irish official suddenly arrived and announced to the crowd that they would be received by His Majesty Joachim I before embarking the ship.

Hearing this, Mike Donald's heart raced, and now he felt that it was an honor to be able to get up close and personal with this legend, but after a few seconds, he suddenly caught a glimpse of one of his companions at the next table quietly hiding the dinner knife on the table into his cuff, and his mood suddenly became very conflicted - unlike in Norva Town, this man had a chance to succeed, whether he succeeded or not, it would cast a shadow over the future of more than two million Welshmen, and even lead to a great catastrophe.

So, Mike Donald decided to stop the man without the Irish noticing. As the group left the restaurant, he quietly walked up to the man, grabbed his wrist, and tried to snatch the knife from his sleeve.

After leaving the restaurant, the more than 70 members of the group were arranged to wait in a café that had been cleared in advance, and their belongings were loaded onto the ship. The guy who had stolen the knife casually found a table near the podium, and Mike Donald followed him closely, naturally taking a seat next to him.

"Hey, what are you going to do with this bastard?" The man asked Mike Donald through gritted teeth.

"That's what I should ask." Mike Donald whispered.

The man stared at him coldly: "Are you a lackey of the Irish?" Why are you stopping me? ”

Mike Donald lowered his voice and said quickly: "If you do something to him, whether it succeeds or not, countless Welshmen will die because of your recklessness today!" ”

The man scoffed, "You are wrong, this is the only chance God has given us to save Wales." Kill him, Ireland will be in chaos, the Irish troops stationed in Wales will be withdrawn, and our armed independence will be won. ”

Mike Donald glared, "What about after independence?" Who will save this devastated country? Who can govern a country better than him? Who are you counting on? Soviet? ”

The meaty-faced guy hesitated, but before he could continue talking, a black sedan pulled up in front of the café. Escorted by several tall Irish soldiers, the legendary man in military uniform but without a weapon got out of the car and entered.

With the croaking of chairs moving, everyone in the café stood up and faced each other.

Mike Donald gripped the hand of the guy next to him tightly, lest he take an arrow step up and stab him, and he had no intention of breaking free. An Irish soldier, who was standing two metres away, noticed that the two men seemed to be abnormal, and adjusted his hands so that he could draw his gun and shoot in the shortest amount of time if necessary.

Just like the image in the video materials, the founder of the Kingdom of Ireland and the new king of the Kingdom of Wales has an angular and handsome face, his movements are vigorous and calm, and the various deeds and legends related to it make him seem like a god in the eyes of ordinary people, as if there is an invisible brilliance over his body, but from a rational point of view, he is not too fundamentally different from those monarchs born in European history.

"Gentlemen, do not doubt your eyes, that the place where you are is is indeed Ireland, that the man standing before you is indeed the King of Ireland, and that what you have seen and heard over the past week or so is indeed true. When the situation is stabilised, we will introduce a decree that will allow all law-abiding Welsh to enjoy national treatment in Ireland, and you will only need to buy a cheap ferry ticket and you will be able to come to Ireland and see if everything is still as you have seen it before. ”

The high-ranking monarch opened with a light and witty language in front of everyone, and the originally slightly tense atmosphere was immediately changed, and most Welsh people had a smile on their faces, but at this time, Mike Donald did not dare to relax in the slightest, and from his point of view, the expression of the guy who stole the dinner knife was unnatural.

After a short pause, the double crown wearer from the royal family of Hohenzollern continued to speak fluent English: "I know that some of you still hate me very much, and feel that I have divided your country and taken your territory and people by force. I must admit that when I was a member of the German Navy, I helped the German Navy defeat the invincible British Navy, and when I was the monarch of Ireland, I led the Irish to independence, and then together with the German army I defeated Britain again, and turned the Kingdom of Britain into three nations, which, however you look at it, is history. No one can change history, but everyone has the opportunity to decide the present and the future, and what I can do - and what I am willing to do - promises to do is to reproduce the miracle of Ireland in Wales, so that every Welsh can live equally, peacefully and peacefully. In fact, no one but me can promise you this! ”

There was silence in the café, and every Welshman was weighing the words, and after a few moments the silence was broken by the crisp sound of metal objects falling to the ground, followed by the eerie click of a pistol loading in the café.
