Seeing Qin Zhiyuan, Crown Prince William was not surprised, and the two did not communicate more, and only returned to Thunder Cliff after the groundbreaking ceremony.

Crown Prince William had a high degree of freedom in Thunder Bluff, he had a house in Thunder City and Trident City, as well as a car at his disposal, as well as servants such as a driver and a gardener.

Strictly speaking, Corsica is half of Crown Prince William's current home.

On the island of Corsica, there is the highest density of Germans and French Germans in France, and is the focus of Crown Prince Wilhelm's work.

Back at Thunder Bluff, Crown Prince William looked more at ease than he had in front of the common people, taking a hot bath before casually wrapping himself in a blanket and drinking tea on a chaise longue by the fireplace.

Following the local customs, now in Thunder Cliff, "tea" is the public drink, and the consumption of coffee is far behind.

Crown Prince William behaved very leisurely, Qin Zhiyuan was not in a hurry, he even had dinner with and Bill, and then appeared in the living room.

"You don't seem to be in a hurry." Crown Prince William looked at Qin Zhiyuan and smiled strangely.

"What's the hurry?" Qin Zhiyuan looked calm, and filled the fireplace with two firewoods.

"The Dutch fleet will leave the Mediterranean the day after tomorrow, and you don't want to do something?" Crown Prince William does not sell off-the-hooks.

This is the advantage of having control over the choke point, and if the Dutch want to go to the Far East, if they don't want to go around the world, they have to go through the Mediterranean.

From the Netherlands to Port Said at the mouth of the Suez Canal, it is about 4,000 kilometers, and the calculation time is almost the day after tomorrow, and the Dutch fleet will arrive in Port Said.

And if Qin Zhiyuan did nothing before this, and when the Dutch fleet entered the Suez Canal, Qin Zhiyuan would be beyond his reach if he wanted to make small moves.

"If you need my help, please don't be polite, for the sake of you helping so many children, I don't hesitate to extend a hand of friendship." Crown Prince William had no sense of being a prisoner.

The relationship between Crown Prince William and Qin Zhiyuan has always been good, and on many issues, Crown Prince William did not shy away from Qin Zhiyuan.

"It seems that I am also going to submit a report to Paris, and you have too much freedom." Qin Zhiyuan was dissatisfied, but he didn't expect that Qin Zhiyuan would be very responsible for the degree of freedom that Crown Prince William had.

"Hahahaha...... You are doomed to disappointment, do you understand that this is the privilege of being a royal family? "Crown Prince William is proud.

Background may be the only place that Crown Prince William is proud of in front of Qin Zhiyuan.

Crown Prince Danling William was unhappy that Qin Zhiyuan never seemed to pay attention to this.

"The rotten royal family should overthrow you all!" Qin Zhiyuan expressed verbal disdain.

In fact, Qin Zhiyuan is not too disgusted with imperial power.

Existence is reasonable, Qin Zhiyuan believes in this sentence.

The political system has never been advanced or backward, but it is only said that only whether it is suitable for the development of productive forces is the fundamental reason. This is not to say that only democratic regimes can promote the development of productive forces, capitalism will be born in Britain under imperial rule, and democracy in another time and space will breed more dictatorships.

Look at France now, it is precisely because of the democratic mechanism that many people can see that Algeria is wrong, but because of the consideration of political performance, the lid should not be lifted. And if France is still a monarchy, then the monarch is the best person to lift the lid.

"Hmph, I hope you'll still think the same thing ten years from now." Crown Prince William was unimpressed.

"What do you mean?" Qin Zhiyuan was confused again.

"Power! When you taste the taste of power, you will not want to give it up, and if you return to the Far East, maybe you will also ascend the throne, and hopefully you will overthrow yourself when the time comes. "Crown Prince William has sinister intentions.

Power is indeed the best poison, and the so-called "a big husband cannot be without power for a day, and a young husband cannot be without money for a day" is the best proof.

"Money", which in itself is power, the dominance of money.

Listen to what that means, to be a man you have to have a little power.

"You're turning back the clock on history." Qin Zhiyuan laughed uncontrollably.

"It's useless to tell me these noble things now, and you'll know when the time comes. Even if you don't want to, can you guarantee that your subordinates won't? Crown Prince William seems to be dismissive of Qin Zhiyuan's "naivety".

This also makes sense, the reason for the "yellow robe" in Chinese history has always been considered to be Zhao Kuangyin's hypocrisy. But if you think about it carefully, Shi Shouxin's generals also have selfish intentions, if Zhao Kuangyin becomes the emperor, then he will definitely divide the feudal feuds wantonly, and when the time comes, Shi Shouxin and they can at least mix with the prince Wandai.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is a minority of emperors who unscrupulously kill heroes.

"I'll talk about this topic later, if I really need to ascend the throne at that time, of course I want to taste what it's like to be an emperor." Qin Zhiyuan did not resist.

This is hypocritical, there is a chance to be an emperor, who will resist?

"But then again, your throne looks a little dangerous right now." Qin Zhiyuan was half joking and half reminding.

The Germans are infiltrating France, and France is also infiltrating Germany, and Qin Zhiyuan, as a senior military figure, naturally knows about this "imperial power discussion" that happened in Germany.

"There is no danger at all, in fact, my foundation is now stronger than ever, even if the people in the country force my father to abdicate, I will be able to ascend the throne when I return home. When the time comes, those lawless people with bad intentions...... Hehe. Crown Prince William ended with two sneers.

Crown Prince Wilhelm has the confidence to say this, 500,000 German prisoners of war is the greatest reliance of Crown Prince Wilhelm, with the support of these people, Crown Prince Wilhelm has the confidence to defeat anyone.

If you think about it, you can understand that because of the world war, Germany's population is rapidly decreasing, and these 500,000 new forces, representing 500,000 families, if you add their social coverage, almost half of Germany are supporters of Crown Prince Wilhelm.

"Then you should thank me." Qin Zhiyuan immediately showed his merits.

"Okay, you become a German citizen, and I will make you Governor General of all German overseas territories." Crown Prince William was generous.

"Forget it, after the world war, it's up to you whether you can keep these territories." Qin Zhiyuan was not tempted.

What makes Qin Zhiyuan not tempted is not those overseas territories, but if Qin Zhiyuan joins the German nationality again, it is equivalent to having three nationalities......

Belch...... What is the name of the most famous "three-surname house slave" in history?

"Seriously, we met too late, if it had been earlier, I would have said that those overseas territories could have been handed over to you for trusteeship, and now, it can only be cheaper for the Entente." Crown Prince William is not without regrets.

"No way, you don't dare to ask for it, I don't want to be the target of public criticism." Qin Zhiyuan was not fooled.

"Hah...... You coward. Let's get down to business, how are you going to deal with the Dutch fleet? "Crown Prince William cares.

"What nonsense are you talking about, my people have withdrawn from Borneo, and this war has nothing to do with me." Qin Zhiyuan cleared up.

"You can only use these words to coax ghosts, if you will let go of the Chinese in Borneo, then you will not be able to achieve what you are today." Crown Prince William broke the ground.

"It sounds like you know me very well, so tell me what kind of person I am." Qin Zhiyuan pulled away from the topic.

The person who knows himself best is often his enemy, and Qin Zhiyuan never underestimates anyone, especially the elite of this era.

"You? Forget it, I'm not qualified to evaluate yet, and when I qualify, I'll definitely criticize you to the fullest. "Crown Prince William was ruthless.

"That's great, I'll wait for you." Qin Zhiyuan did not show weakness.

"Anyway, what are you going to do with the Dutch fleet?" Crown Prince William was in high spirits.

"Can you please not discuss this? The two of us are still hostile countries, do you want me to tell you all the deployments? Qin Zhiyuan was tight-lipped.

"Hmph...... If you don't say it, I know it, be careful that I don't carry the black pot for you. "Crown Prince William was ruthless.

Qin Zhiyuan bought two submarines from the British half a year ago, on the grounds that he could better deal with the Germans' submarine forces by understanding submarines.

These two submarines are now always parked in French shipyards, and many people know about them.

But Crown Prince William has reason to believe that Qin Zhiyuan must have more submarines in his hands, because during this period of frequent travel between Corsica and Marseille, Crown Prince William has found traces of submarines in Trident City more than once.

At that time, there were obviously hunting submarines nearby, but they did not attack, so the identity of those submarines was about to be revealed.

Thinking about it like this, Crown Prince William vaguely looked forward to it, and at the same time was a little helpless.

"Hehe, it's up to you." Qin Zhiyuan smiled sinisterly.

"Hmph...... Then you have to promise me one thing. "Crown Prince William made conditions.

"Tell me about it." Qin Zhiyuan was noncommittal.

"What if...... I mean, if, when the world war ends, can you get a part of the German Navy to join your naval forces? "Crown Prince William said it was tough.

"Why do you think that?" Qin Zhiyuan was curious.

"What else can I say? Do you think that there is still hope for victory in Germany? Crown Prince William's expression was bitter.

During his time in France, Crown Prince Wilhelm thoroughly understood the power gap between Germany and France. If nothing else, when it comes to food alone, there is a world of difference between Germany and France in terms of sufficiency.

Although the standard of living of the French has declined, it can barely fill its stomach, and the upper class and the army have almost no influence, and even the menu of German prisoners of war is more abundant than that of the current German troops.

How can this be fought!

Since he knew that he could not win the war, Crown Prince William had to plan ahead.

Letting some German soldiers join Qin Zhiyuan's troops can also be regarded as allowing Qin Zhiyuan to save some fire for the German troops, because it is almost certain that Germany, as a defeated country after the war, will not be able to maintain an army of this size.

So how Germany can maintain its combat effectiveness and how to ensure that it can find enough officers at any time when needed has become a question for Crown Prince Wilhelm to consider.

Qin Zhiyuan's appearance perfectly solved this problem, you must know that Qin Zhiyuan's subordinates are foreign legions.

In the Foreign Legion, there were not only troops from North Africa and the Far East, but also many from Europe, and a considerable number of them were originally from Germany, and it was only because the belligerents involved their home countries that those German or German members withdrew from the Foreign Legion.

It is said that the earliest mercenaries in Europe were the Germans. (To be continued.) )
