On 27 January, a week after the Kaiser's arrival in Tangier, the spectre of war hung over Europe.

“…… Yesterday Prince Baden told his contemptible people that he was ready to go on the expedition on the same day...... I heard that the Lord had arrived in Italy the day before yesterday and would go to Austria tomorrow...... The ambassadors of the two countries visited the Prime Minister's residence day and night, visited the crown prince and the princes and ministers, and heard that Britain had proposed to convene a conference of the great powers to settle the Near East question once and for all, and to keep ......peace in Europe forever."

After hastily reading the telegram sent by Hu Weide, the minister stationed in Germany, from Berlin, Liu Yun stretched his arm slightly and grabbed the phone on the table.

"Pick up the Foreign Secretary."

"Yes, please wait." The voice of the operator is sweet but not greasy.

There was a brief rustle in the earpiece, and the foreign minister seemed to be prepared for it, and quickly picked it up.

"Prime Minister, I'm Chen Siguang."

"I'm asking you a question." Liu Yun gets straight to the point.

"Yes." Chen Siguang is confident.

"Do you think there will be a war between Germany and France?"

"Sooner or later, there will be a war, Germany and France have deep grievances, and they are incompatible, and this crisis is just the fuse, not to mention that Russia has been hit hard by our country, Germany can avoid the worry of fighting on two fronts, and can concentrate its strength on dealing with France."

"What do you think about the Anglo-Russian mediation?"

"It may be relieved for a while, but after a while, a new fuse will burn again."

"So what do you think of the Kaiser's current anti-Chinese stance"

"The national interest is above all else, regardless of ethnicity, race, or religion, and Sino-German alliance is the only way to build a new order in the world. With Germany containing the great powers on the European continent, China will have the opportunity to realize a new royal order in the whole of Asia and beyond. With our country launching an offensive in Asia, Britain and Russia will not be able to deal with Germany with all their might, and Germany will have a chance to realize its new pan-Germanic order. As long as the diplomatic offensive is carried out in a balanced manner, the Kaiser will surely understand the necessity of Sino-German alliance and truly appreciate the sincerity of our country. ”

"Have you ever considered the attitude of the United States?"

"The United States has always practiced neutrality, and in addition to regarding Latin America as its backyard, it basically only does business with other countries and does not talk about politics; at that time, as long as it does not surrender to the United States' Pacific territory, the United States has no reason to be an enemy of China; of course, if the United States is willing to participate in the Sino-German alliance, the United States will be able to re-divide Asia and Africa at that time, and the United States will also benefit from it."

"Got it, so be it."

This concludes the procedural consultation period.

Chen Siguang is really a hardcore pro-German faction...... Liu Yun muttered in his heart.

But the Kaiser was indeed a racist, not just a racist, he was also a self-righteous model of the monarchy, a pan-Germanic addict, an admirer of Frederick the Great, a stoker of the militaristic steam engine, a follower of Nietzsche and Mahan, and a conqueror of the illusory earth.

The Kaiser's arrogance and prejudice blocked the way to Sino-German unity, and China could never have negotiated an alliance with a country that was steeped in the concept of the Yellow Peril and the New Crusader.

Next......

Do you really want to be as Wen Yi said...... Armed neutrality?

Bubbles bubble up in the swamp of logic, and several question marks pop up when broken.

First, did you abandon everything and come here in order to build a Chinese empire that is no different from the empires that have been destroyed for thousands of years, just like playing a game of cheating, by conquest and enslavement?

Second, isn't it worth working hard to see the results in your lifetime?

Thirdly, what do you plan to leave for Chibirch? What do you leave for Liu Ping and Yuchun?

Fourth, will you be able to divide the world with the beasts? Or are you just a beast yourself? You are all beasts......

……

The questions that point to the deepest part of the soul are enough to torment people, but if you are not careful, they will flow down like a waterfall, as if they can fill this small universe at once.

Where is the end of the world?

A knock on the door interrupted the meandering thoughts, and the secretary on duty poked his head halfway in: "Prime Minister, Your Excellency the Home Secretary has arrived." ”

"Ask him to come in."

The door to the office was wide open, and Yang Zhengjin, the Minister of the Interior with whom he had been interviewed, walked in with reservation as a soldier.

"You said you had something important to report to me?" Liu Yun stared at the confidant general solemnly.

"Yes, there have been signs of instability in the Haw Par camp recently."

"Oh?"

"I found that more and more members are keen to discuss some taboo topics......"

"For example?"

"The task force incident, the Guangxingding case nine years ago, the palace turmoil fifteen years ago, and even the origin of our group ......"

Liu Yun frowned: "I haven't heard Su Mengxin mention it, but he is the acting chief." ”

"He's in charge of training, I'm in charge of supervising, and the agents in it are all directly responsible to me."

Liu Yun then remembered: "I almost forgot...... It's old, it's not good......"

Yang Zhengjin didn't take the opportunity to follow up and shoot a few sycophants.

The reason why Yang Zhengjin, who is already the boss of the police department and the director of national security, was not allowed to monopolize the power of the tiger and leopard camp at the same time, the parties did not think about it.

"So, it's time to clean your room."

"The contaminated area is too large to be thoroughly cleaned without harming the body."

"Is it that serious?"

Although there is no suspicion in employing people and no suspicions, the affairs of the Haw Par Camp are different after all.

It was an elite private army that belonged to Liu Yun personally, independent of the Ministry of National Defense, the General Staff Headquarters, and the Cabinet Intelligence Department, and was not subject to the judicial control of the state, and only accepted orders from Liu Yun personally, and his internal picket team was responsible for rectifying military discipline, specializing in the defense of Liu Yun's party and the purge of the group's political enemies.

At this time, there is no need to rush to clarify himself, Yang Zhengjin understands that this kind of thing is often the more smeared and blackened, and the more he doesn't want to be misunderstood, the more suspicious the other party will be.

"It is estimated that it started with the task force incident, and most of the sources of the rumors came from members who had participated in the operation against the task force. But for a long time, the Haw Par Battalion has been equipped with weapons beyond the times, and has come into contact with high-tech equipment such as helicopters, infantry fighting vehicles, and drones. So unconsciously the underlying doubts and ambitions gradually surfaced - the above is my reasoning. ”

"Are you planning to disband the Haw Par Battalion just because of this reasoning?"

Yang Zhengjin presented a file bag: "This is the information I have compiled. ”

Liu Yun completely ignored it: "You are the supervisor, you can see the intelligence yourself, I want sufficient reasons and evidence, not probable, probable nonsense." ”

"Evidence is being gathered, but it will take time."

Liu Yun narrowed his eyes: "Do you think that the Haw Par Battalion will rebel?" ”

"I think there's a lot of a good chance that they're going to make inappropriate choices at a critical moment."

"Don't come to these diplomatic words, check carefully, if there are not enough people, ask the Hawk Wolf team for it, you must figure it out."

"Yes!"

The hour hand points to six o'clock, and even the prime minister should leave work.

In two days it will be the New Year, a week later will be Chinese New Year's Eve, the school has already closed for the winter vacation, the National Assembly will also adjourn from today, tomorrow until the sixteenth of the first month, the regular cabinet meeting will be suspended, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival will spread quietly like a fog in the distance.

How many more Spring Festivals can I have?

The doctor said that the body needs to be recuperated, not too tired, don't think too much, and be in a good mood, this is all nonsense, but there is one point, after Qianhua's problem was solved, a big stone was unloaded in his heart, and the dark heart penetrated into the clear sun, little by little, the stubborn ice of prejudice was melted, and he began to learn to see the problem from a broader perspective.

Qianhua has made a lot of contributions.

What do you want to leave for her, for them, for all the people of this plane?

Liu Yun felt that after turning a few big bends on the steep mountain road, he was slowly driving towards the distribution center of the answer.

His Royal Highness King Zaixun of Yijun has no interest in driving an open-top classic car leisurely at this time, he needs to be fast, faster, time must die immediately, and the destination must be arrived immediately!

"Su Lao Er has an accident, that batch of arms has also been investigated, sooner or later it will touch our heads, everyone, there is no time to hesitate, things have come to this point, there is no other way out except for an immediate incident!"

"I have already planned for the Chinese New Year's Eve, but now I am afraid that the temporary change will be too hasty, and it will be difficult for people from all walks of life to respond at that time." Beizi said.

Zaixun said impatiently: "I'm afraid it's not Chinese New Year's Eve, and we are all already ghosts under the knife of adults." ”

"Who dares to kill relatives and nobles! As long as we don't admit it when the time comes, we all say that they planted it, and the emperor comes forward to say something again, won't there be nothing to do? "Prince Zhuang Zaixun is already retreating.

"Zhuang Di underestimated Liu Yun and rebelled against the party, they can't wait to take this opportunity to abolish the emperor, not to mention the way you and me live!" Prince Duan Zaiyi shouted viciously.

Baylor Zailian also shouted fiercely: "It's not a question of whether to do it or not, if we don't do it, they will have to do it sooner or later, and only by destroying Liu Yun's rebel party can we save my world, I finally came to this point, time does not wait, there is no way to retreat, I am willing to personally lead a team of people to mention the head of Liu Yun's rebel thief!" ”

"Limbel said it well, kill the thief for the Lord, and who else will I be! Who refuses to go here, stay here honestly! Later, I will order it as soon as possible, people and guns are ready, how many are counted, it is almost three or four o'clock in the middle of the night, do you still have questions? ”

"But......" Jae-hoon was about to speak, but was glared at by Jae-xun's fierce light, not only did he not dare to continue, but he also rubbed his heart and trembled.

"It's over, it's over...... Your Majesty...... Fathers and fathers......"

At this moment, there are only these few words in Jae-hoon's lament.
