Chapter 414 cannot be delayed
After the banquet
Returning to the luxurious room where he was staying, Colonel Escalade Freitch came in, his face a little red from drunkenness, and asked with great interest; "Your Highness, what do you think of the armies of these countries that you saw yesterday?"
Colonel Escalade Fletcher was not only the main military attache to the Seventh Prince, Tang Li Kun, but also his teacher of German and military affairs, and provided His Highness with useful insights into European history, religion, culture, and geography.
So this question is actually a consideration.
Li Kun did not rush to answer, but walked to the side of the palace-style sofa and sat down, beckoned Colonel Escalade Freitch to sit down as well, and took the initiative to pour him a cup of hot coffee and a cup for himself.
After taking two sips, he replied thoughtfully;
"It is true that they are different, especially the Prussian army is well-trained, the morale is high, the spirit and equipment are the best choice, and in all respects it is not inferior to the imperial army, which can be called elite.
Compare it to
The Austrian Imperial Army was much worse, the aristocratic officers were arrogant and arrogant, and the soldiers were generally in poor spirits, and there was always a bit of a Piri Yang feeling......
How to say it
Anyway, it's uncomfortable to look at, it's hard for such an army to be sacrificial and aggressive on the battlefield, and I'm not at ease anyway.
The Danish army was somewhere in between, and could be said to be a strong army in Northern Europe.
Perhaps it was the lack of strong will of the high-level leaders of the Danish Kingdom to fight to the end, so the Danish army was a little difficult to follow, and the command of the higher level and the execution of the lower level were somewhat chaotic. This was also the main reason for successive defeats in the war, which was difficult to withstand the fierce attack of the Prussian army.
As for the armies of the countries of the German Confederation, my general impression is that they are poorly trained, poorly equipped, poorly qualified, and the only thing that is commendable is that they are quite in good spirits.
Perhaps they needed a generous commander-in-chief with excellent military qualities, and not Friedrek VII, who munched on meat at the table, gulped down wine, and talked about it with all his might.
I have a very low opinion of His Majesty's ability to lead an army, and it would have been a disaster had it not been for the military support of the Kingdom of Prussia and the Austrian Empire. ”
"Hehehe...... What is said is indeed in line with the facts, and it shows that His Highness has thought it carefully, and I will clarify this point in my report to His Majesty the Emperor. Colonel Escalade Fledge laughed and took a long sip of the coffee in front of him, he was very impressed by this intelligent and studious Highness.
"Thank you Escalade, I'll be studying harder, and after delving into the complex relationships between European countries, there will always be a fascinating pleasure to explore, and I'm kind of enjoying it now."
"Great! If combined with his personal interests, His Highness's studies will progress by leaps and bounds, and His Holiness would very much like to see this, and it will be my greatest honor. ”
"You are too modest, Lord Escalade."
"It's that Your Highness is so good, and I just happen to be in the light. Let's not talk about that. How are you prepared to deal with Princess Ovina's constant love? ”
"Do you have to say this?"
"I'm not worried about anything else, but His Highness has to worry deeply about it. Your Highness, you know that the future will definitely be a marriage between the Holy Lord, and His Highness has no say in this regard, why don't you just explain it to Princess Ovena? Solve this problem once and for all, unless you want to disobey the will of God? Colonel Escalade Flage was not to rub sand on the subject, and his eyes were fixed on His Highness's face, trying to find something unusual in it.
The stakes were so high that he didn't dare to play with fire.
The identity of Princess Ovina determines that this matter is very troublesome, and if Her Highness plays with women at will, he must not find this kind of Protestant Puritan family, who value women's chastity very much.
Pre-marital behavior is strictly forbidden, not to mention the status of a royal princess, which can definitely lead to war between the two countries.
Colonel Escalade Freitch saw trouble and big trouble in the matter of Princess Ovina, super trouble, and if he could not solve this confidant, he would rather show his yellow card to His Highness, so as to end this European study tour early.
The so-called yellow card, that is, as the military attache of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince, personally wrote and submitted the study tour report before the emperor, which is an important report that His Majesty will personally review, reflecting the bits and pieces of His Royal Highness the Seven Princes' study tour in Europe.
If the stupidity could not be stopped, Colonel Escalade Fletsch would be held liable for gross negligence.
The thought of this made his heart tremble, and he couldn't sleep well with the snow-white delicate body of his lover, the eldest princess.
After all, Li Kun was only 15 years old, and at this time, he scratched his head in annoyance, his face showed a little shyness of a big boy, and he hesitated and said;
"I love the atmosphere with Ovina, it's really nice to be together if nothing else, it's very nice to be together.
To be honest, I don't know if it's love or not?
What is certain is;
I have always regarded Princess Ovina as a good partner in life, and I have never thought of getting married and starting a family, and in fact it is impossible.
Ovina's attitude bothered me a little, but I was reluctant to give up this ambiguous relationship, and I didn't know what to do? ”
"Then after returning to Berlin, it will be up to me to solve this trouble, and I hope to get your permission from Your Highness." Colonel Escalade Freyge felt that he could not drag it anymore, that he was walking a dangerous tightrope, so he made a solemn request.
Li Kun drank all the coffee in the cup with some distress, then sighed and lay back on the palace-style sofa, shook his head after thinking about it, and said; "That's so cruel to Ovena, don't think I don't know your tough methods. I'll do it myself, I'll always have to solve these problems, and maybe I can accumulate a little experience from it. ”
"A week, okay?"
"This ...... Wouldn't it be too rushed? ”
"Your Highness, I ask you to stop playing with fire, once you really get into it, both you and Ovina will suffer, and we have to end this interesting European study tour early, His Majesty the Emperor will be even more furious, presumably you won't want to see this, right?"
"Well, week by week, I'll figure this out on my own." Li Kun gritted his teeth and made a decision, but inexplicably felt some heartache.
Colonel Escalade Fretsy was keenly aware of the change in His Highness's expression, and his heart sank suddenly, and he was more and more determined to solve it by thunderous means.
If you really can't do it, even if you go against the wishes of His Highness, you have to take the lead and break this dangerous young man's love thread.
If a person is not a sage, how can he be ruthless?
Especially for a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old like His Royal Highness, who has been grinding with the ears and temples of a beautiful princess for several months, it is inevitable that there will be some mental fetters, which is an extremely dangerous symptom.
Colonel Escalade Fletsch has mentioned it many times, but His Highness always shirks it, and now it seems that he cannot hesitate any longer.
In order to salvage the current rigid atmosphere of conversation, Colonel Escalade Fretcch changed his tone and talked about His Royal Highness Don Li Yuan, Duke of Hawaii and Grand Prince in Italy.
"Does Your Highness know? The Duke of Hawaii encountered similar troubles to you in the Kingdom of Italy, and those aristocratic women from southern Europe were even more enthusiastic, making the Duke of Hawaii shout "I can't bear it", and I went to Sicily to hide for half a month a while ago! ”
"Oh, the royal brother is so embarrassed?" Li Kun was also quite surprised when he heard it, and asked casually; "Is that woman so attractive?"
"To be precise, a group of women, they are all fascinated by the noble blood, young handsome and wealthy Duke of Hawaii, I heard that there have been several fights for favor, and these noble women in southern Europe are crazy." Speaking of this, Colonel Escalade Fledge held back a smile and looked at Li Kun's concerned gaze seriously, and continued; "Your Royal Highness, you should be glad to have come to the Kingdom of Prussia, the women of the German nation are reserved, reserved, and even somewhat conservative. They won't be as passionate as southern European women, or you're in big trouble. ”
"It does sound a little scary, my poor brother." Li Kun was also convinced, shook his head again and again and sighed; "On the boat on this European study tour, the royal brother once told me; He doesn't speak Italian well and may have a considerable communication barrier. Unexpectedly, women were the biggest curse of his trip to Italy, who would have thought of this? It is estimated that the second imperial brother has also suffered similar troubles, and the erosive life of the French upper class aristocracy is well known to the world, and the second imperial brother will definitely not be spared. ”
"That's right, the Duke of Panama is in the most trouble, and it is possible that the Holy Lord will bring him back by the way after this trip to Europe."
"Oh...... What do you know? ”
"I didn't say anything specifically, but I learned through the Legation in France that the Duke of Barrama had not been able to withstand the temptation of women, and I am afraid that he had already slept with several French women, which is no secret in Parisian high society. These French aristocratic women openly boasted of their hunting successes, thus attracting more imitators. ”
"Unlucky Second Emperor Brother, no one can save him." Li Kun smiled bitterly and shook his head.
The Duke of Panama is the fifth-ranked heir to the Tang Empire, second only to the three princes, the seventh prince, the eleventh prince and the eldest prince of the queen.
Unexpectedly, if he fell into the gentle country of Paris, if his father knew that he was so uncompetitive, the consequences would be ......
Li Kun felt scared when he thought about it, his father never said anything in front of the princes, there was no prince who was not afraid of his father's monstrous majesty, and he felt his calves and stomachs turn just by standing beside him.
Not to mention bearing the thunderous anger of his father, it was a feeling of despair.
After a while, Li Kun could only pray for good luck for the second emperor's brother, but he didn't dare to talk much in front of his father, so he could only pretend to be a good boy.
