Chapter 70 070 Life is so interesting
On February 3, 1932, Lin Youde was celebrating the traditional Chinese New Year two days later.
Lin Youde transferred chefs and condiments that could not be found in Germany from within the Ming Empire through the ambassador of the Ming Empire to Germany, and bought other materials from all over Europe to prepare for a banquet at Sanssouci Palace.
This banquet was so big that the good Moutai transported from the Ming Empire alone was full of eighty barrels, and it occupied most of the warehouse after being loaded.
In order to prevent this extravagance from becoming a lever for public opinion to attack him, Lin Youde announced that all the residents of Potsdam City had the right to attend the dinner on the day of the banquet and experience the Chinese New Year. For this reason, the secretarial agency led by Hybert began the qualification investigation work as early as New Year's Day in 1932, and investigated all the residents around Sanssouci Palace.
After a month of preparation, the royal courtyard attached to Sanssouci Palace was full of Chinese elements, even the eaves of the palace itself were covered with Chinese lanterns, and the windows were pasted with Chinese-style window grilles, all of which formed a strong contrast with the obvious Western art style sculptures scattered throughout the palace. Matsudaira Chihiro, who is also from the East, has to use this almost every day to complain about Lin Youde's aesthetics.
Lin Youde doesn't care, anyway, he has already made up his mind to have a Chinese New Year.
But on February 3, news came that Serbia had declared war on Austria-Hungary.
**
Lin Youde sat in his office in Sanssouci Palace, looking at the map of the Balkans on the table, and couldn't help but sigh.
When he learned that the Serbs had never found an adult god in a ravine in the unknown road, Lin Youde knew that the Serbs and Austria-Hungary were at war. And the Serbs will go to war as quickly as possible, because according to the Versailles Treaty, two of the young goddesses who were held up in Russia by Austria-Hungary will be 16 years old in 1933.
However, Lin Youde did not expect the Serbs to attack so quickly, according to the fox, Shen Ji, who had never been trained to fight with magic armor, needed at least three months of adaptation practice to master magic armor.
But the fox also told Lin Youde that Shen Ji basically only needed a week to roughly know how to manipulate the magic armor, and some Shen Ji who was very good at controlling her strength could even figure out how to use her armor in a day.
In the same way, those who are particularly good at the gods are able to shorten the three-month adaptation practice by virtue of their qualifications.
Therefore, Lin Youde did not formulate a response plan according to the "need for three months of adaptive training", and after considering all the aspects of Serbia's use of magic armor for Shenji, Lin Youde believed that the Serbian attack would start at the end of February and early March.
As a result, the Serbs are now at war, which is really a big surprise for Lin Youde.
In fact, the news that the Serbs found Shenji at the beginning had already surprised Lin Youde, and when he first saw the concise and concise emergency call, Lin Youde also sighed, "It's not right for me to rely on this script." Later, after Lin Youde saw the name of the god Ji on the detailed report compiled by Hybert, he felt that this script was quite reliable, Tito, the original world world is also regarded as a Balkan hegemon, and it is normal to have a counterpoint existence in the world world here.
But now the news of the war that came too soon made Lin Youde feel that this script was not quite right.
It can only be said that life is really full of surprises.
Lin Youde shook his head and said to himself, "la-vie-est-drole." β
"Uh," said the fox standing behind him and wrapping his arms around his neck, "was that French just now?" β
"That's right, 'life is so interesting'."
"Hahaha, indeed, life is so interesting." Saying that, the fox rubbed Lin Youde's heavenly spirit cover with his chin.
The softness and body temperature coming from behind made Lin Youde not feel the winter cold at all, but the fact that the fox almost weighed on his shoulders made him slightly unhappy, but there was nothing to complain about as a price for enjoying welfare.
So Lin Youde didn't complain.
He continued to read the report in hand.
The Serbian army, with Shenji as the core, directly attacked the neighboring Austro-Hungarian province of Bosnia and occupied Sarajevo. The Austro-KhaΕ troops stationed there were wiped out in an instant, and no one escaped, and the corresponding Austro-Hungarian regular troops were also bloodbathed.
By the time Lin Youde sent back this report from Belgrade's eyeliner, the Austro-Hungarian side had not issued any official report on the situation, and Lin Youde's own people only used the word "bloodbath", and did not mention the specific situation.
When Lin Youde was thinking about the report, the fox said: "This 'bloodbath' makes me feel ...... Anyway, it can't be a massacre, right? β
Lin Youde was silent for a while, shook his head noncommittally, and replied: "The Serbs do not have an absolute predominance in the population of Bosnia, and there are one-third Muslims and one-fifth of the population in that place are Catholics. β
"Maybe that's what is really going on right now." The fox picked up the report, which was not very long, stood up, and flipped through the top of Lin Youde's head, "You see it is also written here that the Serbs are transporting all kinds of goods to Belgrade, and only after the massacre and plunder, will this happen?" β
Lin Youde pursed his lips.
He doesn't think he's a particularly kind person, but he's so disgusted by indiscriminate genocide that he'll never forget the shock he received when he first watched Schindler's List, and because of that, he would never do such a thing as a city slaughter in any strategy SLG.
"Ahh β
"There is indeed a point," Lin Youde sighed, "However, I also know very well that what I am doing is actually indirectly sending people to death, if I really want to settle the score, I am also a guy who can't go to heaven by sending countless ordinary people to the battlefield to fight against the war queen during the civil war." So, I can take advantage of the people who committed the massacre, and I can tolerate cooperation with them, but I myself will never let my army shoot at the unarmed. β
The fox patted Lin Youde on the shoulder and didn't speak.
After a while, the fox said, "This Serbian goddess is a little strange." β
"What's wrong?" Lin Youde turned his head to look at the fox's face, but was blocked by the barrier formed by the fox's huge chest and the report in his hand.
The fox ignored Lin Youde, and continued while flipping through the report repeatedly: "It stands to reason that the magic telecommunication machines of the war concubines can easily get in touch with the attendants of Vienna's magic telecommunication squad, so Vienna should have been notified as soon as the raid began." But you see, the Serb offensive began in the early hours of February 2, and Austria-Hungary did not send a telegram until this morning to say that it had been attacked. It's only been a few hours since they sent the telegram, and your eyes in Serbia have already sent this report back, even if Austria-Hungary is already old, it can't be so slow to react, right? β
Lin Youde thought about it and felt that the fox was right.
"Maybe there is something special on the part of Austria-Hungary?"
As soon as Lin Youde finished speaking, the fox threw the report in his hand on the table, leaned down and began to rummage through the pile of situation briefings sent this morning on the right side of Lin Youde's desk, this action made her chest firmly pressed against Lin Youde's shoulder.
Soon, the fox pulled out a document bearing the Austro-Hungarian double-headed eagle emblem, which was the Austro-Hungarian Daily Situation Briefing submitted by Hybert.
The fox quickly finished reading the three-page briefing, and then said to Lin Youde: "Vienna, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, did not change at all yesterday, you see here. β
The fox pointed to a short paragraph in the report: "Here is a record of a banquet in Vienna last night, which included all the political and military dignitaries of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, even the emperor himself, although only for a short time. Would this be the case with a country that was attacked and lost a detachment in an instant? β
"You're right." Lin Youde nodded, "Even Austria-Hungary can't do this, so in your opinion, what's going on?" β
The fox is a god, and no one knows the god better than the god.
"There are two possibilities." The fox turned to Lin Youde, sat on the table, and cocked Erlang's legs, "First, the enemy's Shenji combat power is very terrifying, killing everyone in an instant." Second, the enemy's Divine Queen has some kind of wide-area ability, which may be some kind of ability to interfere with the communication of the Magic Channel, or it may simply be a wide-area complete defense ability, but in the latter case, the Divine Queen has no way to defend against the attack of the Divine Queen, who is blocked by her in complete defense. β
Lin Youde touched the beard on his chin and thought for a while before asking, "How likely do you think it is that a Zhan Ji detachment will be killed in an instant?" β
"I can't do it anyway." The fox shrugged, "If the Serbian goddess really has this ability, there are only two possibilities......"
Lin Youde raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart that there are two possibilities?
But he didn't say anything, but motioned to the fox to continue.
"One possibility," the fox spread his hands, "she's so strong, I think this strength can probably be the strongest god in the history of mankind." In this case, I think we can begin to welcome a new country that is internationally important. The second possibility is that there is a price to be paid for this powerful combat power. β
"The price?"
"That's right." After speaking, the fox took a deep breath, "This kind of thing has also happened in history, and Yingzhou once gave birth to such a god, don't you know the way?" β
Lin Youde was dumbfounded for a while.
In the early days when he met Matsudaira Chihiro, he did make up a lot of Yingzhou history, but it was all modern history, and then there were too many things, so he pushed back the matter of continuing to make up Yingzhouβand the entire ancient history of Asia, and what he now knows is basically a fragment of what he heard from those international students.
But fortunately, the fox didn't care about this, and continued:
"About a hundred years before the occupation of Yingzhou, Yingzhou, which was still in the Heian period, had a legend of an evil ghost."
