Monday, August 8, 1921.
The Kingdom of the Netherlands, Utrecht Province, Utrecht Ridge City, Doron Town.
Utrecht is the smallest province in the Netherlands, less than 100 square kilometers, located in its inland core area.
This area is called "Randstad". For the Netherlands, it is equivalent to the New England region of the United States or the large free shipping empire of Cyris, and is its commercial and industrial center.
This place is not only rich but also has beautiful scenery. Lake Emmer to the north and the Rhine to the south, which is known as a European water town. It is summer and it is lush and lush everywhere, which is really beautiful.
Of course, our Master Yuan came here from Amsterdam not to enjoy the scenery, but was invited to meet a historical celebrity.
"Your Majesty, then I will say goodbye."
At this time, he had been staying in the castle (manor) next to Doron Town for a few days.
Now that the time is almost over, Yuan Yan, who is also a little sick from the second grade, is bidding farewell to another famous second grade patient, Yiyi.
"Neo, it's a pity that you can't stay here as my secretary. Then I have to wish you a good journey."
Needless to ask, the person who said goodbye to him was William II, the last emperor of the Hohenzollern Dynasty. He has lived in seclusion here since his abdication.
As the saying goes, if you see the second, you will become a confidant if you don’t become an enemy.
This old, one young, two middle-aged patients, really became "confidants"...
Because our Master Yuan is the Cyris man, not the German Hans, his attitude towards William II and "His Highness of Temperance" is quite "objective".
He believed that these two were "good people", and they commanded the Hans and the "good people" who worked hard to break the Western colonial system twice.
Of course, Hans themselves didn't think so. They were so entangled with these two, so they had the famous "Fisher debate" in the future.
Fritz Fisher is a professor in the Department of History at the University of Hamburg, Germany. He raised a question in the 1960s, whether Germany launched two world wars was because this country was born with an "evil core", or was their normal country led to an evil path by "evil figures".
Fisher himself adopted the first answer, namely, the Prussian tradition of "first-military politics" and the Juncker system promoted Germany to launch two world wars.
This has triggered a long-term debate. Some people believe that William II, as the "shadow emperor", was a slave to the imperial elites' implementation of agglomeration policy and social imperialism. Some views emphasize his core role in most decision-making and propose William II's "personal domination theory."
Compared with William II, the issue of "His Highness of Temperance" who has broken through the bottom line of human morality is more sensitive.
However, there is one thing that no one can deny. If the commander of Er Dezi and San Dezi were not patients with secondary disease such as William II and "His Highness of Control", and replaced by pure Machiavelliists like "iron-blooded prime minister" Bismarck and "cardinal" Richelieu, Germany would not have launched these two world wars.
The main reason why Yuan Yanshu and William II became "confidants" was that they both "hate" the Jews and "loved" naval ships.
As we all know, William II loved the Navy to die and even claimed to be the "No. 1 sailor" of the German Empire. This is somewhat similar to his cousin, George V, who was called the "King's Sailor".
William II's mother, Princess Victoria, was Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, so they were cousins. As mentioned earlier, George V served in the Royal Navy and loved sailing very much.
He liked warships so much that he was reluctant to drive these "big toys" out to fight the Royal Navy in the end, and he had to be an existing fleet.
The gift Yuan Yanshu gave to William II was a ship illustration that "produced by the system must be a fine product". Then he used this illustration to open the topic.
He knew everything about the navies of all countries around the world, praised William II's toys, and sighed with regret for the Battle of the Japanese Sea...
This quickly won the other party's favor, and advanced a courteous meeting to a friendly dinner.
While the two were having supper, William II was surprised to find that the Seris had a "common" view with him, that is, the failure of the second Dezi was all Jewish, and the left-wing thoughts that the Jews had incited.
So William II was happy to ask him to stay here for a few days. Master Yuan happily agreed, but in fact he happened to have nothing to do and was on vacation in this beautiful castle.
During these days, they rode horses to hunt, chat and picnic together. Yuan Yanshu also helped William II to "correct" the English version of his memoir, which was a lot of fun.
At the same time, his friends also had a very happy life.
William II, a Cyrius man, is not only funny and knowledgeable, but also superb in equestrianism and a hunting expert... After all, the "Insect Vein Warlock" uses the template of a ranger, and is very agility and power, and is also good at dealing with animals. Hunting is simply a good job in his job.
If he doesn't look at his skin color, he will be a nobleman of Europa.
William II even called him "my yellow knight", and our Master Yuan pinched his nose and accepted this somewhat discriminatory title.
In fact, it would be very beneficial to Yuan Yanshu to gain the friendship of this second-year deposed emperor.
First of all, he can become an old friend of the German people... that military. This is a great thing for his arms smuggling business and "security business". In a few years, when Wall Street aids Germany, he can also use this relationship to make a move.
Secondly, these days, Japan and Cyris, have a lot of German fans in the two East Asian countries, especially in the army of the two countries.
Finally, if his disciples and disciples in the future have to say that they are not allowed to put the title of Junker Knight on their lips.
Unfortunately, although Liang Yuan is not a place of long-term love, this world is still waiting for our Master Yuan to continue to commit suicide.
Now it's time to part.
Yuan Yanshu's next stop is Paris, the capital of the Third Republic of France (1870-1940).
Like all men with girlfriends and wives, he also has to go shopping in Paris.
Is it reasonable to not buy any gifts for your other person when it comes to flowers?
Of course, in addition to shopping, there is also a "main business".
