When Frederick first looked at Bismarck, he knew that something was wrong.

Bismarck's eyelids were lowered, and his hand kept pulling at the pencil on the table.

After many years of partnering, Frederick knew Bismarck too well.

It was a manifestation of his inner struggle!

As a comrade-in-arms in the trenches, he should stand by his side unconditionally.

What is he struggling with?

An ominous premonition struck Frederick's heart!

Frederick's fingers tapped on the table, and his brain raced.

Thinking about what kind of consequences he would face if Bismarck did something unfavorable to him.

The most important thing is how to solve the problems that are coming.

His movements were discovered by Duke Winter, who was staring at him like a falcon.

Duke Winter was keenly aware of Frederick's mood changes, and he quickly turned his attention to Bismarck.

The only person who could make Frederick's mood change suddenly was this number two.

Seeing Bismarck's hands fiddling with pencils, Duke Winter smiled.

The reason for Frederick's clear change must have been Bismarck.

"Chancellor Bismarck, what is your opinion?" Duke Winter suddenly spoke, and the "buzz" and "hum" in the conference room immediately stopped.

All eyes were on the senile Bismarck!

Bismarck helped him with the crystal glasses that Li Xiao had given him, and glanced around the ministers.

These people were his men, and most of them were picked up by him.

It can be said that Bismarck's attitude is crucial.

The moment they looked at Frederick, Bismarck's eyes flinched.

Frederick's heart immediately cooled in half!

"I'm ......!" Bismarck made a long pause.

All eyes were on him, waiting for the Prime Minister's speech.

"I ...... Support this scenario. When Bismarck finished speaking, he immediately lowered his head, and he did not dare to look at Frederick's face.

Frederick's face was pale, and his teeth were about to crumble.

He didn't expect that at the most critical moment, it was actually his closest comrade-in-arms who betrayed him.

Years of friendship, the grace of support!

It was all lost at this moment.

"Great, Chancellor Bismarck also agreed to this new battle plan." Duke Winter was excited.

This will be a landmark political event!

This represents Bismarck's public move closer to himself.

Although Bismarck is old, and has been against himself for many years.

But for so many years, Bismarck's protégés and former officials were all over the Prussian departments.

The so-called tree has deep roots, and Duke Winter can only be jealous of this old fellow, and there is nothing he can do.

Now Bismarck actually took the initiative to lean over, and Duke Winter almost jumped over to kiss the old fellow.

"Your Majesty!

What about your opinion? Duke Winter looked at Frederick defiantly.

Frederick gritted his teeth, eager to chew Frederick's old bones to pieces.

"Humph!" Glancing at Bismarck viciously, Frederick brushed his sleeves away.

"Your Majesty, your opinion is important." Duke Winter's voice came from behind Frederick.

Frederick once again had the urge to kill!

Duke Winter: This is a naked provocation in front of everyone!

Frederick's opinion is important?

After Bismarck's revolt, it didn't matter what he said.

Richthofen took command of the General Staff and carried out a purge of the General Staff in twenty days.

Now, this purge is spreading to the military.

As the emperor lost his military power, Bismarck's rebellion reduced his control over the government to the lowest point.

If the government is also purged in the future, then he, the emperor, will be an emperor in the air.

"Gentlemen, let's carry out a new battle plan.

Now, ask the Chief of the General Staff Richthofen to tell the details of the plan. ”

Inside the conference room, the excited voice of Duke Winter echoed.

Even he didn't expect that victory would come so easily.

Richthofen took up the baton again and began to explain the details of the battle plan, as well as the specific data on the materials that each department would have to cooperate with in the coming month.

The meeting lasted until late at night, and Bismarck left the venue early, citing his ill health.

A person of his level is actually just an attitude at the meeting.

In fact, it is these ministers who really do the work.

Bismarck expressed his support for this plan, and the ministers he had promoted understood it and were extremely cooperative with the new plan.

Duke Winter personally escorted Bismarck out of the conference room and delivered him all the way to the gate of the General Staff.

"Chancellor Bismarck, how about having lunch tomorrow if it's convenient?" Bismarck's backlash was sudden, and Duke Winter was not prepared at all.

In political matters, it is necessary to do a good job in the distribution of interests as soon as possible.

Otherwise, this unreliable alliance is very prone to problems.

"I'm old and not in good health." Bismarck's words puzzled Duke Winter.

The pants are all fucking off, what the fuck is innocent pretending?

Fortunately, Bismarck had another sentence next: "You are also busy with your affairs, I think it is better to have dinner."

After the meal, we can also chat. ”

What a fucking hit!

The so-called dinner is actually a negotiation. A negotiation of what political benefits Bismarck would gain by supporting Duke Winter.

Duke Winter needs to discuss with his staff what conditions can be agreed to and what conditions cannot be agreed.

Bismarck, on the other hand, also had to consider how his own interests could be maximized.

In fact, time is of the essence for both sides.

Because, there are so many interests to consider.

Lunch can be a bit rushed, but dinner will be a lot more timely.

"Okay, we'll meet tomorrow at six o'clock at the Grand Hotel Berlin.

I'll book a spot in advance and let the adjutant inform you. Duke Winter was in a good mood, and after shaking hands with Bismarck, he watched Bismarck's carriage leave.

The Duke of Winter was very busy that night.

Not only did he observe the meeting of the General Staff, but after the reminiscences were over, Duke Winter had to negotiate with his staff about the scale of his conversation with Bismarck tomorrow night.

In fact, the bigwigs talk about attitude together.

They set the tone, and the next details all depend on these staff members to follow up.

It was dawn, and the sun shone through the window of the conference room.

Duke Winter, who hadn't slept all night, was still in good spirits!

"Lord Duke, let's have some breakfast. After breakfast, you should rest for a while. ”

Richthofen comforted the great patron.

He didn't expect that Bismarck would actually turn against the water.

Richthofen thought that this was all done by Duke Winter beforehand.

Even an old fox like Bismarck can handle it, and Richthofen's admiration for Duke Winter is like a surging river...... endless!

"Hmm!" Duke Winter nodded.

After a busy night, I drank a lot of coffee, but my stomach was empty.

"Yes! In the afternoon, Lord Duke, you will be going to the University of Berlin to give a lecture to the students. ”

The attendant also reminded carefully.

This was a temporary addition to the itinerary of the Duke of Winter the day before departure.

It also took a great deal of effort for the attendants to organize the students of the University of Berlin.

"Hmm!" Duke Winter hummed again.

This is the aftermath of a trip to the Bergbrau Keller Brasserie.

He admired Adolf's state of speech so much that he had a desire to imitate it.

He specially asked the master to write the manuscript, and on the way to Berlin, he memorized it all the way.

At the same time, the gestures and tones that need to be coordinated are still in my mind.

On the airship, he even practiced in front of the mirror.

It's a pity that the time is very short, and the practice is not proficient.

After a brief breakfast, Duke Winter put down the knife and fork in his hand.

"You continue to refine your battle plan with the ministers, and our offensive needs to be launched next month.

You need to be in the position of Chief of the General Staff, make your achievements, and gag the mouths of those villains.

Do a good job!

In this battle, there is no room for mistakes. Walking to the door of the restaurant, Duke Winter told Richthofen to send him out.

"Yes!

Rest assured, Lord Duke, we will do our best to achieve victory. ”

"It's not about giving your best, it's about winning.

The German nation could not afford to lose this battle. ”

Duke Winter patted Richthofen on the shoulder to cheer up the old subordinate.

"Yes!" Richthofen gave a military salute.

"What time is the afternoon presentation?" The Duke of Winter turned away under Richthofen's gaze, and asked the attendant beside him as he went.

"It's set at three o'clock in the afternoon, and you have plenty of time to rest."

"Hmmm! One o'clock, uh...... No, call me up at half past twelve. I'm going to get familiar with the lines, and I'm going to practice them too. ”

Duke Winter commanded.

"Yes, Lord Duke." The attendant was a little puzzled, because Duke Mao was suddenly so interested in the speech.

To give a speech to those students, you have to practice in advance, and you have to ...... Sacrificing time off.

This is something that has never happened before.

Lord Duke wants to be in the limelight!

This was a common conjecture among the attendants.

Since the Duke wants to be in the limelight, his subordinates naturally understand.

So, while the Duke of Winter lay on the marching bed and fell asleep.

A large group of people were in the courtyard, practicing how to cooperate with the Duke's speech to the satisfaction of the Duke.

The University of Berlin is generally referred to as Humboldt-Universität Berlin, which has a very long history.

Its history can be traced back to the period of Prussia and the Duchy of Prussia.

The ruler at that time was still Frederick's grandfather.

During the honeymoon period with Daming, the University of Berlin sent some scholars to Daming for a short time to steal teachers in the name of exchange.

Of course, the highest universities in Daming that these people go to are just middle schools.

Moreover, many people still haven't understood what Teacher Daming is saying.

The language barrier is a major problem!

After all, things like math and geometry need to be studied systematically.

Many of those translators didn't actually take math and geometry courses.

The translations are even more varied, and the Prussian scholars seem to have fallen into the clouds.

More scholars went to the primary schools of the Ming Dynasty to learn some natural knowledge of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and the lowest nature.

They were very surprised by the Ming people's definition of life from aquatic to terrestrial.

They decided it was a betrayal of God.

As for the bizarre theory that the earth revolves around the sun and the moon revolves around the earth, they also feel panicked.

Because just over 20 years ago, Copernicus was burned at the stake.

Back in Berlin, they immediately forgot about the knowledge of nature.

But those who can get to Daming are all extremely smart guys.

The biggest academic achievement that these people brought back was the Ming Dynasty's ninety-nine multiplication formula.

Many of these scholars are now leading professors at the University of Berlin.

The carriage of the Duke of Winter entered the gates of the University of Berlin at 2:45 p.m.

Duke Winter maintained the rigid and punctual character of the Arrians.

The carriage was at the entrance of the university and was embraced by a large group of enthusiastic students.

They waved Bavarian flags and chanted slogans welcoming the Duke.

But this slogan, how to listen to it, how to have a Munich accent.

The carriage traveled all the way to the entrance of the lecture hall of the University of Berlin.

Duke Winter took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was exactly two fifty-five o'clock in the afternoon.

Walk into the auditorium and walk up to the podium.

The timing was just right, and it was just right.

Standing on the podium, Duke Winter looked at the crowd below in black pressure. I can't help but feel a little nervous!

Being focused by so many eyes at the same time is not something that anyone can adapt to.

Even Duke Winter, who has seen a big scene, is not exempt from vulgarity.

He took a deep breath and calmed his mind.

Duke Winter followed Adolf's example and looked at the crowd of black people below.

The thousands of people in the Great Hall fell silent, and they and Duke Winter stared wide-eyed.

It lasted up to two minutes.

This is what the Duke of Winter and Adolf have learned, that a long silence can make the audience pay more attention to what the speaker has to say.

It works!

The crowd was terrifyingly quiet, and in the venue of thousands of people, it almost reached the point where a pin drop could be heard.

The attendant looked nervously at the Duke and pointed to the large blackboard carried by the two strong guards.

The reminder words were written in chalk on it, so that the Duke would not be embarrassed and not know what to say when he forgot the words.

"Gentlemen! I'm Winterleicher. Winter, Duke of Bavaria. At three o'clock the Duke of Winter stood on the podium and uttered his first words.

"Whoa......!" It was this sentence that the group below began to applaud.

The students were a little confused, so what was there to applaud just because he was a duke?

But everyone has a herd mentality, a large group of people applauded, and the rest of the students and professors also slapped a few times.

The Duke of Winter was very satisfied, and his self-confidence was greatly increased.

After the applause stopped, Duke Winter said with a calm face: "In front of me, there is a big blackboard.

It says a joke, a joke about foreigners, to be exact.

But I don't want to joke, because now our Prussian Empire is on the verge of the abyss......!

Gentlemen, if we don't work hard, we will fall into the abyss purgatory from which we will never recover! ”
