What kind of car should the head of state sit in?

This is not a trivial issue, considering the identity of the passengers, the impact of the security issue, and the many assassins who are eager to try it for various reasons, it can be said that the Führer's car ride has always been a problem that the concerned people dare not underestimate. After all, not everyone is as generous as Archduke Ferdinand and President Kennedy to ride in a bulletproof convertible in a dangerous area.

Designing an official car for the head of state that can not only highlight the status of passengers, but also withstand various dangers is a difficult problem for designers and manufacturers. At a time when there were no ready-made reference standards, the best bulletproof cars were made by gangster workshops. At that time, street shootouts were commonplace in American gangsters, wearing top hats, cigars in their mouths, long trench coats, and Chicago typewriters in their hands were almost the standard outfits of American gangsters. In order to improve the probability of survival in the rain of bullets, the gangsters modified a batch of Buick cars by themselves, and these DIY bulletproof cars became the earliest reference objects for designers of major automobile manufacturers.

In the thirties and forties, with the changes in the international situation, for the sake of its own safety and highlighting the "world's first scientific power of Great Germany", a certain mustachioed corporal ordered Mercedes-Benz to build the world's first bulletproof limousine for the exclusive head of state. Mercedes-Benz's response to the Führer's directive was the Mercedes-Benz 770K.

It is a luxury car with a length of 5.6 meters, a width of 1.84 meters, a height of 1.83 meters, and a weight of 3.6 tons. The inner wall of the body is equipped with a 25mm thick bulletproof steel plate, the windshield bulletproof glass is 50mm thick, the chassis is equipped with a 45mm thick bulletproof armor steel plate, and even the tires are bulletproof tires lined with special steel wires. Powered by an inline-eight supercharged engine, it can reach a maximum road speed of 90 kilometers per hour. The interior is luxurious and comfortable. As the exclusive car of the German Führer, the production of each of the same type of Mercedes-Benz company must be approved by the Führer himself, and only 17 cars were produced before and after, and only three survived after the war, each of which can be called a priceless work of art.

The high-imitation modified version of the car Li Lin is riding in now has further improved the level of protection, and the weight of the vehicle has soared to 5.6 tons, almost the same as a light armored car. Individual small arms and explosives in general (anti-tank mines and explosives made from large-caliber artillery shells are not counted) in active service could not help the "small chariot" at all. Unless you have an "iron fist" in your hand, or ignore all kinds of security measures, and get into the ideal sniper position early, and give the silver-plated convertible (the old grandfathers of the council initially insisted that the whole car be plated with a layer of local gold to blind the audience...... The stinky guy has a shot into the soul. But then again, even if God is pitiful and the mother goddess is merciful, they can carry weapons into the scene, and even directly put a gun to Li Lin's head, but what weapon in the world today can kill Li Lin? Not to mention riding in a convertible, even if he is walking around the street with a target on his back, others can't do anything about him.

He could do as long as he wanted.

Li Lin himself did not say whether he was willing or not, but he was ...... Why do such a thing that doesn't do any good?

There are many people in this world who like to laugh at nothing, such as the German Emperor Wilhelm II, who was born with stunted growth, and the *** Commander who openly said that "the fault is the world" (dare to blame the world? In fact, Li Lin often mocked other countries in internal meetings. But to shoot all Charlemagnes in public? No one in their sanity would do that.

Charlemagne, who on the surface seems to be as arrogant and stubborn as a rooster, is actually a bunch of masochists who bully the weak and fear the hard. In their history, it was the tyrants who were tough on their people who led their countries to greatness. And those kings who were evaluated as "good people" by later generations were a group of weak and bullying waste wood in the eyes of Charlemagne's people at that time, not to mention the local nobles, and even the women in the alleys of the Lüdes market did not take the king seriously.

So in the process of digesting Charlemagne, Li Lin paid considerable attention to the alternating use of whips and candies. Disobedient people are not only beaten, but also used to sacrifice the flag to stand up, and obedient obedient people will be rewarded accordingly. When he decided to eliminate the speculative syndicate, in addition to political and economic considerations, he also used his actions to convey to Charlemagne's people the intention of "Do you want whips or candy?" The subsequent state of affairs did not deviate from his prediction, and the Charlemagne, who had been stripped of their backbones due to military disasters, had completely resigned themselves to their fate after experiencing the economic war, and there was no longer any talk of resistance and resistance in the market, and armed resistance in various places began to fall into a low ebb.

These are certainly good signs, but they are also very deceptive.

It is true that Charlemagne has now lost the will and strength to resist, but this is only temporary, and it will only last for a generation at most. When the memories of horror begin to fade, and the hardships of life and the differences between races and classes begin to manifest little by little, anger, resentment, and rebellion will accumulate little by little, and finally one day break through people's psychological defenses.

Manipulating people's minds and instilling ideologies is a long-term project, and it is easier and faster for people to accumulate discontent. Then, when one day, some madman who has been crushed by the pressures of life does something amazing, no one can guarantee that it will not be a match thrown into a powder keg.

Therefore, while Li Lin suppressed the national consciousness of Charlemagne, he also took great care not to excessively stimulate the self-esteem of Charlemagne's people. These two points seem to be contradictory, but in fact they are also realistic choices under objective conditions.

Originally, Li Lin did not plan to hold a military parade on the streets of Lüders at this enthronement ceremony, or even to hold an enthronement ceremony at the Palace of Versailles. In any case, this is also Charlemagne's former capital, and the establishment of the empire and the enthronement of the emperor in the palace of the enemy's most glorious and greatest capital may sound cool, but in fact it can only be used to satisfy vanity and hatred, and there is almost no other meaningful effect. The purpose of the so-called "intimidation of the people of the enemy country" and "propaganda of national prestige" only exists in the heads of some granite, and the real strong people do not bother to play these tricks at all.

It stands to reason that there is really no need to go to a city that is about to be divided into three for enthronement ceremonies and military parades. However, the identity of the emperor often does not represent an individual, or even a personal will. Before taking care of Charlemagne's self-esteem, Li Lin had to meet the needs of his own people.

For the elves, this war did not begin a few months ago, not a dozen years ago, but a phased victory in a long war that lasted for thousands of years. They have been waiting for this for more than a thousand years, during which countless elves have silently paid for it, including their lives. In the face of such a hard-won victory, everyone really needs a festival that can show the thrill of conquest to express the pressure that has accumulated for a long time. In addition, objectively a grand military parade is also needed to show military strength, so that the countries that are not very peaceful can calm their brains.

Thus there was the enthronement ceremony in the Hall of Mirrors of the Palace of Versailles and the military parade in Lüddes.
