All the members who came to this room for a secret meeting today smelled something unusual, and these old foxes, who had been stumbling in the political arena for many years, were speculating about what important decisions the king and others would announce.

However, everyone present was surprised by Prince Albert, who followed in the footsteps of Leopold III, this level of secret meeting may not be qualified to participate even by Crown Prince Boshean, what is the qualification of a prince who is only a future prince in name only?

Ahir with a bright head? Prime Minister Van Ack flashed a momentary foreboding in his mind, could it be that Leopold III's movement was preparing to abolish the rhythm of the long and young?

"Belgian ministers, I am honoured that you are here today to participate in this meeting that I am presiding, and I am here today just to have a grand discussion with you about the future of Belgium, and I would like to rest assured, Ministers." The 13-year-old Albert is not the slightest bit timid in the face of the most glorious Belgian figures in the room.

Hear Albert hint that this meeting is not to abolish the crown prince and Prime Minister Ahir? Van Ake breathed a sigh of relief, but he was muttering in his heart, what the hell was going on with King Leopold, who actually let his thirteen-year-old second son preside over a secret meeting? Doesn't he know that every respected minister's time is precious enough to be described as a grain of gold in a second? Although he has heard something about Albert's actions, Prime Minister Arshil? Van Ack doesn't think Albert has enough weight to value him yet.

"We all know what Prince Albert means, and it is the accusation of everyone here to think about the future of Belgium, so please make a long story short because we have limited time." There was a hint of impatience in the Prime Minister's tone, and he added, "I still have a lot of paperwork to deal with." ”

Albert was not angry, but smiled and handed the document to the Prime Minister and the Chief of the Army Staff, and said, "Read this document first, and after reading it, I think you will retract what you just said for this document." ”

The Chief of the Army General Staff was going to just look through it casually, give some innocuous advice, and then get out. But as soon as he opened it and saw the word atomic bomb, the face of the chief of the army general staff, who had a leisurely face, instantly turned pale, and he looked up and saw the prime minister sitting next to him, and his face was not much better.

Albert stared at the two of them with playful eyes, and this scene reminded Albert of a very appropriate word and looked at each other.

"Presumably, the prime minister and chief of staff should know what the US military did in Japan in August, the atomic bomb, as the darling of war in the new era, only one can wipe out the lives of tens of millions of people. In the future, countries will certainly step up their research and development, threatening countries that do not have atomic bombs with such weapons, and Belgium, which is the crossroads of Western Europe, will be at the mercy of others if it does not have nuclear weapons. ”

"As for how this information got to me, this is a secret, a secret that has been preserved by many people who have died, and all the experimental data in it are accurate, please rest assured. That is to say, as long as we have people, equipment, and uranium mines, we can build our own nuclear weapons step by step. So I hope that the two of you in this room will be before nuclear weapons are developed. Able to rot this secret in the stomach. ”

Albert made a gesture of silence, perhaps because the contents of the document were too shocking, and the originally powerful prime minister was as well-behaved as a cat in front of the thirteen-year-old prince.

"But it just so happens that Belgium has no experts in nuclear physics, and there is no equipment capable of making nuclear weapons, let alone so-called uranium mines, which is easier said than done." The Chief of the General Staff frowned and said, this feeling is like having a tempting and delicious cake but not being able to eat it, and the irritability of a hundred claws scratching his heart.

"Uranium, has the Chief of the General Staff forgotten the Hinkolobwe uranium mine in the Congolese province of Katanga?" Albert nodded. At the beginning Ken. Colonel Nikkor bought more than 4,000 tons of uranium ore from the mine and transported a quarter of it to warehouses on Starn Island for use in the Manhattan Project, while about 30,000 tons of uranium ore in Congo were sold to Americans before the end of World War II.

The prime minister shook his head and sighed, "This colony may no longer be controlled by our government, and the call for independence from the damned blacks in the Congo is getting louder and louder, and it will be difficult to achieve it if it is not repressed with blood." ”

Speaking of which, Albert wants to complain about Belgium's rule over the Congo, Belgium implements extremely cruel patriarchal rule in the Congo, trying to isolate the Congo from the entire civilized world, foreign newspapers and books are not allowed to enter the Congo, and Leopold II has carried out a very cruel enslavement and rule of the local Congolese blacks in order to mine Congolese rubber.

As a result of Belgian rule over the Congo, by 1960 there was only one lawyer, 26 university graduates, and less than 30,000 secondary education for a population of 14 million Congolese.

After World War II, the Belgian Congo began to demand autonomy. On 31 January 1960, under pressure, King Baudouin I of Belgium declared that he would eventually make the Congo independent, but that the process would be "gradual and gradual", and that the Belgian authorities had planned that they would not grant the Congo full independence until 1964.

But the people no longer want to endure this life without sovereignty. Lumumba, the leader of the Mouvement Nacional congolais (MNC), demanded immediate independence, and in May 1960 elections were held, Lumumba was elected Prime Minister and Minister of Defence. On 30 June, Belgian Congo declared its independence.

But for Albert, the Congo is an important strategic colony that must not be lost, not to mention the uranium mines, which account for 60% of the world's production, and other minerals in the Congo, which are enough to support the development of Belgian heavy industry. As for the so-called accusations of Belgium's brutal rule over the Congo by the countries of the world, Albert wants to slap them in the face, who doesn't know that one of you is more hooligan than the other, and one is more shameless than the other, and it is not to let a Congo that is slaughtered by others become independent as soon as possible, so that you can directly attack the uranium mine in the future? really regarded himself as a righteous little friend.

"I've thought about this before, my father, and my idea is to transfer me to the Congo as governor, and I believe that I can stabilize the increasingly turbulent Congolese situation." Albert turned back to Leopold III.

"No, I'm against it. It's too dangerous, and if the prince makes a mistake, none of us can afford it. "The Chief of the General Staff was the first to jump out against it.

"A true warrior dares to face the dripping blood, Mr. Chief of Staff." Albert's words hit the nail on the head, but the chief of the General Staff did not know how to refute it.

"Since you have decided to become governor, I am not a father to stop you, but I hope to talk about it in a year or two. Okay, now let's get back to business. Leopold III pointed.

"As for the construction of facilities, I hope that the state can support a number of military industries through key construction projects." Here Albert shamelessly applies the five-year plan of socialism.

"Within three years, the state will concentrate its capital superiority to establish complete nuclear weapons research and development facilities, aircraft manufacturing industries, and missile research and development projects, and support the development of high and new technologies such as computers. In terms of educational resources, we should pay attention to the cultivation of university talents, especially the education of science and engineering. ”

"What a lot of capital is invested!" The Prime Minister sighed.

"It's your business how to toss, I'm just giving you an idea." Albert banged on the table and said, "It's much faster to grow with a proper seedling than gradually."

"What about the talent pool?" The Chief of the General Staff suddenly asked, "Your Highness Albert, you know that in the field of nuclear physics, the experts who can get their hands on it in China are almost in a blank stage. ”

"I'll fix this." Albert said confidently that he was going to make a deal with that country, in exchange for what he had in exchange for its experts and facilities.

Presumably, they would definitely like to have a potential ally in Western Europe.

"Alright gentlemen, don't dwell on this matter anymore, I have a few more proposals for the future, I hope you will listen to them well." Albert picked up a few more papers from the table.
