Volume 2: The crown and the hat are all over the capital, and the spirit is full of energy and enter the foggy city Chapter 128 Easter (Part 3)
Subtitle of this chapter: Can't go to the stables on Easter?!
"Host, your relationship with John Joseph Pershing has become hostile."
"Master Ball, everything is under control!"
Our Master Yuan is the backbone of the Guo Army, and I am not exaggerating when I say this.
What if he offended Pershing? The old man is already 60 years old this year, and he can only serve as the Army Chief of Staff for a few more years. The Royal Army cannot control Seris these days, so what can they do to him?
What's more, he mainly wants to rely on the power of the first-class people in America. It doesn't matter if his relationship with the second-class people is a little bad.
Besides, after this incident got out today, wouldn’t I win the favor of the president of West Point Military Academy?
Although the combat effectiveness of the Wang Division stationed in the Philippines is highly questionable, the Wang Division is wealthy and powerful, and a little bit of food from their fingers can make the Nanyang side full. This is the key point!
"Mr. Yuan, you really, really...ah..." Major General Connor could only sigh, not knowing what to say.
"Major General, honesty is the most important quality of a gentleman. At least I have always believed so." Yuan Yan exhaled a puff of green smoke and said, "Did I say anything wrong? I agree with Marshal Foch's opinion that a war has been written into the Treaty of Versailles. Don't you think so?"
"This..." This time it was Major General Connor's turn to be speechless.
Eisenhower couldn't help but say, "Mr. Yuan, I didn't expect you to have such an opinion. But..."
Why did George Patton regard Dwight Eisenhower as his confidant?
Because Patton and Eisenhower have realized the importance of tanks in the next war. They believe that tanks are the future of the army.
Blitzkrieg was not the patent of Sandzi. Didn’t “Red Napoleon” Tukhachevsky and “Father of Soviet Combat Art” Triandafillov come up with a theory of great depth? Triandafillov is not very famous because he died in a plane crash in 1931. This accident led to the Soviet Union banning senior leaders from taking planes.
But when Comrade Steel came to power and decided to pursue "socialism in one country" instead of "world revolution" like Trotsky, the theory of great depth was of no use.
In addition to the two polar bears, the Taurus has Fuller, the Gallic Rooster has Charles de Gaulle, and the Bald Eagle has Patton and Eisenhower. However, the military authorities of these powers that are capable of blitzkrieg have no interest in tank warfare at all.
This cannot be entirely blamed on the military leaders of these countries for being too conservative and unwilling to keep up with the times, but rather on the three major powers, Britain, France and the United States, launching a blitzkrieg. Who the hell were they fighting against?
Is the UK going to send a bunch of "amphibious tank knights" across the English Channel to reenact the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France? Is France going to produce another "Armored Emperor Napoleon" to unify the European continent? I have to say, these two scenes are too magical and too "internal combustion punk".
And does the United States want to conquer Mexico? Even if they really want to conquer the North American continent, they don't need tanks.
Since there is no such strategic need, the military authorities of the three major powers would have no choice but to build a tank cluster, unless they have too much budget to spend.
Of course, the Japanese probably want to do it. But if they want to do it, it probably won't be enough for all the women of marriageable age in the country to go abroad and sell their sex life.
Only Germany had this capability, and because of the geopolitical situation of being attacked from both sides and limited domestic resources, it had to make a quick decision, so it was necessary to develop armored blitzkrieg.
This is the result of Yuan Yanshu observing the development of tanks in various countries from the perspective of an economist rather than a military expert.
So why did Fox Connor appreciate Eisenhower?
Because Connor and Eisenhower were among the few people in the US military who realized that there would be another war in Europe. Eisenhower said in his memoirs that Major General Connor "was convinced that we, along with Britain and France, would be forced to fight another war with Germany and its allies."
In fact, as early as 1921, many people predicted that Germany would rise again.
However, they are not time travelers like Yuan Yanshu. What they are worried about is the restoration of the German Emperor. Even if the mediocre Emperor Wilhelm II cannot come to power again, he still has sons and grandsons.
Of course, even if the factor of the explosion on the spot is not taken into consideration, Yuan Da the time traveler will naturally not tell others that the person who will lead the Third Reich in the future will not be a member of the Hohenzollern royal family, but a corporal who was born a homeless person.
However, the kind-hearted Master Yuan will kindly remind others...
"Ike, but what?" Master Yuan said in a serious tone: "Europe is brewing a war comparable to the scale of the last war. Even a military layman like me can see this. Once Germany is communistized, the Battle of Armageddon predicted in the Bible will take place..."
"Germany is becoming red?!"
“Armageddon? !”
Yuan Yan looked at Connor and Eisenhower seriously and said, "Yes, Officers. In 1917, Russia had an October Revolution, and in 1918, Germany had a November Revolution. If it weren't for good luck, there might be a German Soviet now."
"You must know what the situation is like in Germany right now. There might be a December Revolution and Germany will be communistized. Just imagine, if Germany is communistized, then Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and even Poland in Central Europe will also change color!"
"If the Soviet Union and them were to join forces, it would be really HIGH... well, HORRIBLE!"
Major General Connor and Major Eisenhower were really excited... well, horrified, and couldn't help but take a deep breath. Because what this "scientist" said really made sense.
Will Germany become communist in 1921?
Theoretically, it is possible. However, even Master Yuan, who is determined to turn Blue Planet into a red planet, has to admit that this possibility is really small.
To be honest, if Comrade Lenin had not decisively suppressed the capitulationist views of Kamenev and Zinoviev and decisively used the iron fist of the proletarian dictatorship to bring the Kerensky Provisional Government to power, it is hard to say whether there would be red polar bears now.
But what Incus heard was that in 1921, the people of the free world would get so horrified by the word "communism" that they would be a hero if they didn't piss themselves in fear. Especially in the United States, the mainstream media has been promoting communism as a scourge for decades.
Even these two officers are not immune to this.
Yuan Yan slapped her forehead and said, "Oh, no wonder I've been so upset these past few days. It turns out it's because of my period... that inspiration!"
He turned to the secretary and said seriously, "Ms. Moman, write it down quickly. The title is " Beware of the Danger of Germany's Redification"..."
As soon as you hear the name, you know that this must be a great article that will influence the course of history.
In fact, this is indeed the case. After research, conscientious historians in later generations have concluded that the Hughes Plan, the Dawes Plan and the Young Plan all took into account the opinions of Mr. Yuan Yanshu.
“Beep, beep, beep!”
Just as Major General Connor and Major Eisenhower were holding their breath waiting for Master Yuan's magnificent article, another guest arrived in a car.
"Fox, are you here? Has the general arrived?"
Everyone stood up together, and Major General Connor was the first to say to the new colonel: "Majestic, why are you here just now? The general...well, he is a little tired from the journey , so he is resting inside."
Then he said politely to Majesty Quakermer's female companion, "Ms. Brooks, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Ms. Brooks?! Could it be that...
Yuan Yan took a quick look. Of course he had no interest in Colonel Shenma. He was looking closely at the beauty whose name was left in history.
This beauty is indeed a beauty. She doesn't look like a mother of three children at all. She has a petite figure, a cute face, and brown hair. She looks like a boudoir girl like Miss Moman.
But compared to the young female secretary, Ms. Brooks has a charming and romantic charm that makes the men feel itchy.
Moreover, her clothes were very fashionable, exquisitely crafted and gorgeous, and you could tell at a glance that they were worth a lot of money. She was indeed a wealthy lady who paid for half of the ship's luggage.
That's right, when she later became Mrs. MacArthur and followed her husband to the Philippines to take office, in addition to countless clothes and daily necessities, she also brought six cars, ten servants and several pet dogs.
So poverty does hinder human imagination. Those loser writers in later generations simply cannot imagine the lives of wealthy daughters like Ms. Brooks, Huang Huilan and Wei Mingzhu.
"Ms. Brooks, Maggies, let me introduce these two people. They are Major Dwight Eisenhower and his wife."
After they exchanged greetings, Connor pointed at Yuan Yanshu and his female secretary and said, "These two are guests from New York. This lovely lady is Miss Moman, and this one..."
Ms. Brooks covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled, "This handsome gentleman must be NY from NY."
Upon hearing this, our Master Yuan immediately mobilized his muscles... of course, the muscles on his face, and made a complex expression.
His expression was calm but filled with surprise, surprise was mixed with astonishment, and astonishment was accompanied by a carefree and unrestrained demeanor.
He said in a deep and powerful baritone voice: "Yes, I am NY from NY. Then this beautiful lady must be the Cromwell of France."
"Oh, do you know who I am too?" Cromwell's descendant said with a little surprise, his eyes lit up.
Yuan Yan said in a clear voice: "Of course, I have heard that there is a brave and noble lady who made a great contribution to defeating the Germans..."
He was not just flattering them in person. He really did a good job of soothing the tired bodies and minds of the British and American soldiers on the front lines.
"Wow, it was only today that I realized that this brave and noble lady is still so beautiful!"
This is flattery, and it’s flattery that really suits people’s taste.
Master Yuan took the girl's hand and kissed it gently.
Ms. Brooks seemed to have been kissed in an itch, and she let out a lewd... well, silver bell-like laugh and said, "Well, it was only today that I realized that Mr. Yuan, in addition to being able to write novels and drink, you are also so good at talking."
"My beautiful lady, how can I speak? If I could speak, I would write a sonnet to you like Shakespeare."
"My handsome gentleman, if this is not considered speaking, then Shakespeare can only be considered illiterate..."
The public flirting between the two finally made Colonel Majestic Quakemer unable to bear it.
He stared at Master Yuan fiercely, suppressed his anger and said, "Lewis, shall we go in and visit the general together?"
"No, I know the general is in great shape, so if you want to go in, just go in by yourself." Brooks said coldly, "I'd better chat with Mr. Yuan here."
"You..." Poor Colonel Quekomer glared at the calm Yuan Yanshu with hatred again, stomped his feet and walked into the house.
The clever Major General Connor coughed and said, "Why don't we go in and see the general?"
Major Eisenhower looked at Master Yuan anxiously and nodded, "I agree. "
With these words, the group of people left the garden in a hurry.
Miss Moman blinked her big eyes and asked timidly, "Boss, are you going to continue writing that article?"
"What article?" Yuan Yan suddenly said a little unhappy: "Didn't I tell you that you should combine work and rest? Why are you writing an article today, which is Easter?"
"But……"
"It's nothing, just go and have a good look around."
Yuan Yan impatiently dismissed her female secretary, smiled at Ms. Brooks next to her, raised her hand and said, "Madam...um, Cromwell, I wonder if I have the honor to show you around here?"
"Sir...thank you so much." The beauty said delicately and put her hand into his arm.
This handsome man and beautiful woman walked towards the beautiful countryside in the brilliant sunset...
"Has any of you seen Mr. Yuan and Ms. Brooks?"
It was almost time for dinner, but two guests disappeared, and Mrs. Barton had to ask her servants for clarification.
"Ma'am, they seem to be going horseback riding ?"
"Riding a horse? What kind of horse would you ride at this late hour?"
"Anyway, ma'am, the groom told me that Ms. Brooks and Mr. Yuan went to visit the stables together."
"Stable?! This is Easter, not Christmas. What stable are they going to?"
"Ma'am, I don't know either. I only know that in order to have a quiet visit to the stables, they gave the grooms some money and sent them out for a drink. Ma'am, do you understand?"
"Holy Sh...Christ!"
