In Bijing, in the front street of Fayuan Temple, in a small Western building that contrasts with the red walls and green tiles and the mountain gate pagoda not far away, Wu Haisong, who was dressed in a nightgown, was sunk into the sofa, holding a rare Cuban Havana cigar in his mouth, and was enjoying the shoulder massage of his wife Yang Yuxiang.

"Ouch, tap...... Further down............ Yes, that's it, push harder......"

At the dining table in front of the sofa, Pan Guochen, who was in uniform with a pen tǐng, was holding a coffee cup in a daze, and Pan Shaoan, who was filled with fat under his suit, was still gobbling it up, only Fang Tianhua squinted at the pair of jiān husbands who were there early in the morning to show their affection, fiddling with knives and forks and sneering: "Sometimes I can't help but think, what kind of miracle is it that the two of you have lived together for so long, and no one is missing arms, let alone blowing this street to the ground." ”

Yang Yuxiang immediately replied to Yan sè: "Yo, Fang Tianhua, it's okay if you're jealous, the old lady is very open, you have a chance at any time." ”

Wu Haisong narrowed half of his eyes and glared at Yang Yuxiang: "You can let go, I can't let go!" ”

Glancing at Fang Tianhua again: "Fang Tianhua, Lao Tzu has been running outside with your Empress Majesty for more than half a month, and she is so tired that her bones are loose, what's wrong with letting your wife press it?" Your wife didn't serve you well last night? ”

Fang Tianhua was unceremonious, and sneered at each other: "Hey, what a big boldness, what do you mean, Your Empress, Your Majesty,?" Wu Haisong, aren't you kid tǐng sturdy, why, after being a follower for half a month, you are tired and lie down? ”

Wu Haisong sneered and said: "I'm not like some people, I just cats in the capital, drinking tea and talking boastfully with a group of sanctimonious bureaucrats and politicians~ Lao Tzu's trip, I basically didn't close my eyes day and night, and I want to be a bodyguard" I want to be an actor again, and I have to pretend to be a grandson when necessary, and I am discouraged and frightened all day long, and I am not so tired from fighting!" ”

Fang Tianhua smiled: "War? You have the ability to learn from your roots, but this time people went behind enemy lines to jump airships, what about you? I've had a decent fight in 10 years."

Wu Haisong frowned: "You mixed officialdom, what qualifications do you have to say about me?" ”

"Don't quarrel, if you have the kung fu to quarrel, it's better to pray for Liang Gensheng" This guy has just fallen out of love, and I don't know what Lu Dao will do. Yang Yuxiang, who has no sincerity in persuasion, is a gossip on his face.

"The female pilot? How did Xiaoliang do it, this kind of thing can't be done, it's too embarrassing for our future people! ”

Wu Haisong reacts quickly.

Yang Yuxiang said disdainfully: "What's wrong with the people in the future?" Everyone's like you, huh? I think Xiaoliang is still good, "it's just a tendon in the brain", it is not easy to turn around when he encounters problems, and he doesn't like to discuss with others, so he holds everything in his stomach "............"

Wu Haisong squinted his eyes meaningfully: "You know his ...... tǐng"

"That female pilot, I've seen, during the Battle of Solomon, I was on the same boat as her......"

Pan Guochen, who ended in a daze, finally opened. , but he stopped talking.

"How's that" a big beauty, right? "Yang Yuxiang's gossip hún has apparently begun to burn.

Pan Guochen unconsciously scratched the back of his head: "How can I say it, she is not a beauty, but the temperament on her body that cannot be said to be anything is in other women, and she can't see it in any case," ......

Maybe out of a woman's intuition, maybe it was just a deliberate teasing, Yang Yuxiang hid her face and smiled: "It seems that this female pilot, not only did she stop our Xiaoliang, but even Xiao Pan was moved, it's terrible, should I go to the palace immediately" to make a small report to the female officer? ”

"Whatever you want, I'm not afraid of shadow evil." Pan Guochen pretended not to care, but he was even more bluffing.

Yang Yuxiang blinked: "Hehe, I'm afraid it's no wind and no waves......"

Pan Guochen sighed and changed his serious face: "That Miss Cai was seriously injured in the battle, and she is not out of danger now", so don't joke about her anymore. ”

Yang Yuxiang was stunned for a moment: "Does Xiaoliang know the way?" ”

Pan Guochen shook his head: "He still doesn't know what to do." ”

"What a fool." Yang Yuxiang said indignantly.

"Three eggs." Fang Tianhua's smile was not very malicious.

At the other end of the table, Pan Shaoan, who finally put down the knife and fork, wiped his mouth with a napkin in one hand and patted his belly with the other: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm full, can I start?" ”

Wu Haisong squinted and asked, "Begin?" What to start? Who told you you had a meeting today? ”

Pan Shaoan breathed a long sigh of relief, puffed up his stomach, and his face was not stupid or naïve.

"Aren't you going to report to us about your experience of accompanying Her Majesty the Empress on this trip?"

Wu Haisong twisted his neck a few times and sat up lazily.

"Dead fatty, will you die if you don't say it? Also, who's going to report to you? ”

Pan Shaoan laughed, and there were dimples on his face.

"It's not the stuff below you, why can't you say it? But even if you hide it, I can figure it out with my ass, and in the final analysis, it boils down to one sentence: Her Majesty the Empress doesn't want to play with Germany anymore, and Wilhelm can go eat shit.

"William Lao'er has a lot of options besides eating." Wu Haisong is a serious way.

"There are options, but not many." Fang Tianhua stretched out three thumbs, "One is to make peace with the Entente, the second is to make peace with Russia alone, and then on the Western Front to promote peace, and the third is to fight to the end and fight until the country dies no matter what." ”

"There was originally a fourth option, to let the 1 yellow monkey in the eyes of millions of William Lao'er go to the Western Front to fill the trenches." Pan Shaoan raised his middle finger without malice.

"Pinning the hope of sending the Europa expeditionary force on the fate of Russia is originally wishful thinking on the part of the rapid advance faction of the military department, not to mention the difficulties of railway transportation across the entire Eurasian continent, and no Russian ruling authority will accept the conditions of the enemy's troops being able to transit through the border and the lifeline of communication being controlled by the enemy. The only way for the Chinese and German armies to join forces in Eastern Europe was to destroy the whole of Russia, but after the Battle of the Straits, the possibility of realizing such an attempt had become increasingly slim. ”

Fang Tianhua said, counting three thumbs up: "There are also three possibilities for the future of Russia: first, the Russian ruling class has changed its own blood and produced a stronger leadership organ; Second, the outbreak of the "people" against the tsarist ** system, the provisional government based on the old State Duma took control of the situation; The third is that the grass life was pushed by the wave of populism, and the power eventually fell into the hands of professional grass life parties such as the Bolsheviks. ”

The regime produced by "internal exchange of blood or the fate of the people" still depends on the assistance of the Entente to survive, and it is impossible to make peace alone in any case. ”

"If the Bolsheviks came to power, they would have to sue us for peace if they did not receive the recognition and assistance of the Entente. They would most likely accept harsh terms of land reparations, but they would never accept conditions such as the transit of troops and the control of the railroads, which not only threatened the survival of the regime at all times, but also pushed Russia against the Entente – so that they could not withdraw from the war in order to respite. ”

"It is enough to be willing to cede land and truce." Wu Haisong, who was holding Erlang tuǐ, interjected leisurely.

Fang Tianhua ignored his existence and continued to take care of himself: "After the Battle of the Straits, the expeditionary force took the Indian Ocean route, and the route to Germany through the Baghdad and Berlin railway was also broken, not to mention that the Iraqi part of the railway had just started. The Ottoman Empire was rapidly disintegrating under the military strikes and instigation of the Entente powers far more resolute and powerful than in another time and space, and military strength alone could no longer save this veritable "sick man of West Asia". ”

"Even if these problems do not exist" Russia is really dead, and the strait is really recovered, from a military point of view, even if Germany can provide some of the supplies of the expeditionary force, but in any case, the transportation and supply of a huge expeditionary force across the half of the world will inevitably occupy a large amount of transportation and escort forces, thereby weakening the strength of other aspects, especially the Pacific side. And such a long and fragile supply line is bound to attract special attention from the enemy's army, "which may lead to continuous blood loss and become one of the sources of national exhaustion"

"Economically, while it is possible for the Empire to control half of the world's population and vast amounts of untapped resources, it will not be able to rapidly expand its industry in the short term" to the point where it can sustain both a large Europa expeditionary force and a superior naval force of the future Allies. The huge military plan formulated just to protect vested interests is destined to consume the vast majority of the industrial added value, and there will be very little resources left that can be invested in industrial expansion, and the expeditionary force plan is bound to further increase the pressure on the emperor's production, which will lead to the stagnation of industrial expansion, and may even regress as a whole because the high-intensity attrition cannot be replenished in time. ”

Correspondingly, the demand for industrial products of the East Asian allies and the 1 liberated areas, the needs of hundreds of millions of people, the imperial industry under the wartime system could not even meet the minimum, and there was no spare strength to support their own industrial development, "can only be unilaterally plundered in various ways, which will sooner or later cause a backlash, and the double-edged sword of nationalism "will be swung in turn" at the liberators, and this kind of thing is not a trivial matter in our time and space. ”

"From the point of view of public opinion, sending an expeditionary force to participate in the war for hegemony on the European continent will inevitably affect the royal righteousness of the empire's participation in the war, so that the people of the empire and the allies and the liberated areas will be alienated from Germany to a certain extent, and the Entente will have an opportunity to .........take advantage of it."

"Isn't it more terrible than these for Germany to make peace with the Entente, or even to attack the Reich in turn?" Climbing on Wu Haisong's shoulder, Yang Yuxiang interjected coldly.

Pan Shaoan subconsciously pinched his fleshy chin: "In my opinion, Your Majesty is looking forward to such a future." ”

Fang Tianhua sneered: "If William wants to make peace now, it depends on whether the Entente agrees." The Battle of the Straits was broken, and the American giants finally began to exert their strength, and as long as the Russians could survive this summer, the confidence of the Entente would only grow fuller, and correspondingly, the dignity left for the Germans would only become less and less, and the emperor and his Junker generals would obviously not accept a peace without enough "decency." ”

"What if the Russians tǐng?" Yang Yuxiang asked.

Fang Tianhua flipped his palm: "Then it's the other way around, the Germans are full of confidence and open their mouths to the lions of the Entente, and Britain and France will not accept a peace in which Germany dominates the European continent." ”

"Then the white people continue to bleed, and my Chinese empire continues to expand and sit big, and when the white people dry up their blood, the whole world is at my disposal? White people are all living Lei Feng, and they don't hesitate to sacrifice themselves for others? Yang Yuxiang was puzzled.

Fang Tianhua glanced at her, and his eyes clearly revealed the words "fù people's views".

"Britain, France and Germany are each other's confidants, and Britain, France and the Empire are nothing more than brothers' creations. How could the leaders of the Entente lose confidence in defeating Germany in such a good situation, that the Allied leaders were rearmed with the arms generously donated by the allies and new technical weapons, and that the American expeditionary force, which had high morale and sufficient supplies, was also heading to France in such a good situation? ”

This month's Battle of the Solomon Sea has shattered the myth of the invincibility of the Imperial Navy, and with the outbreak of the US Navy's strength, the Empire will face more and more difficult challenges in the Pacific direction, and the sea lines of communication across half the world are bound to become a heavy burden for the Imperial Navy. In the face of such a situation, how could the leaders of the Entente despair of defeating China? ”

"What if Russia falls, and the American fleet is crushed again?" Yang Yuxiang chased after him.

Fang Tianhua spread his hands: "Russia has fallen, there is an American expeditionary force, and the Western Front cannot collapse; Even if the U.S. fleet collapses again, as long as its vast industry is intact, it will be able to build an even more powerful fleet. ”

Yang Yuxiang continued to raise the bar: "If the Western Front can't collapse, it's not the same thing as having the confidence to defeat Germany, right?" It will also take a long time for the United States to rebuild a fleet, and the empire will not sit idle in the meantime. ”

Pan Guochen clapped his hands impatiently: "Whether we have confidence or not, we don't count, now we can only say that we can take one step at a time." At present, the opinions of the top leaders of the group are far from unified, the expeditionary operations in all directions are still continuing, the preparation of the Europa expeditionary force has not been suspended, the so-called absolute defense circle is only a vague outline, and China and Germany are far from reaching the point of tearing their faces. ”

"It seems that our Xiao Pan has a date today, is it the female official in the palace, or the Miss Cai who poured down two future people in one breath?

Yang Yuxiang, who was interrupted, turned the spearhead angrily.

Pan Guochen stood up with a "swish" and said with a furious face: "I said it, don't make fun of her!" ”

After speaking, he turned around, grabbed the military cap on the coat rack and clamped it under his armpit, strode out of the room, and with a backhand "bang", he brought the door heavily.

The remaining four people in the room looked at each other, and after two puffs of cigarettes, Yang Yuxiang stuck out his tongue and slapped Wu Haisong's innocent braincase: "It's over, this guy is serious, the military-themed love triangle at eight o'clock is about to start.........

"Plus the ten-point mango Taigong fighting scene...... "......"

"Anyway, it won't be a midnight spy war romance drama of the Republic of China.........@.
