章 60: Ollie's Confusion
It was already the next morning when Chen Tian and his party arrived in Bangkok. Since their plane could not land at night, they could only stay in Bangkok for one day, and then they set off again in the morning light. In the next 4 days, they flew over the vast Indian Ocean, the vast Arabian desert, the beautiful Suez Canal and pyramids, the ancient and mysterious Mediterranean and the Greek city-states, and Vienna, created for music, and finally returned to Chentian's nest— -Königsberg in East Prussia.
Sitting on the carriage back to the castle, Chen Tian looked at the familiar scenery outside the window and became very comfortable. Summer in Germany is not very hot. The fields are full of lush and vibrant fields. Farmers are busy wearing traditional shorts and short sleeves. It seems that there will be another harvest this year. On both sides of the street, children who were not yet at school age played carefreely, and the stout German women were laughing loudly with their neighbors while carrying buckets. Sometimes Chentian feels that this is his real home, and the simple people here are his family.
As soon as the carriage drove into the gate of the castle, Chen Tian had already seen several familiar figures waving at him there. After politely helping the ladies out of the car, he couldn't wait to rush up to hug Thomas, Ollie, and Zac one by one. They were already used to hug this prince who didn't like to be polite.
"My dear friends, let me take a good look at you!" Chen Tian looked at the right-hand men he hadn't seen for a long time. Thomas is still so handsome, his dark hair combed back neatly, no one would think that he was the intelligence chief of East Prussia when walking on the street; Ollie's body was still that huge, and the baptism of war made him fat Du's face is full of confidence and determination, and there are a few sharp eyes in his eyes; Zach is in his sixties, after all, his gray hair and wrinkles are getting more and more, but the spirit looks very good.
"Zach, please help your wife to settle this lady, she will live with us for the time being, and find another Korean or Chinese translator to see if she has any more requirements." Chen Tianchao Li Xianyun gave a slight nod. Head, confessed a few more words to Lisa, and then hurriedly pulled Thomas and Ollie into his study.
"Did anything special happen when I was away?" Although Chentian was in close contact with Thomas when he was in Qingdao, he was still worried that a few words in the telegram would make him miss important information.
"In general, almost everyone is paying attention to our arms race with Britain. Now the political arena in Germany is very calm." Thomas gracefully picked up the coffee cup and stirred it gently with a spoon.
"Are there any actions between the emperor and the prince?" Chen Tian felt that William II and his son were very unpredictable. The emperor seemed to have clairvoyance and could always clearly understand what he was doing. The prince was obviously dissatisfied with him. But he cooperated with himself again and again.
"Still continue to develop his own power in the parliament and government, but there is news that he will be the commander of the Guards. It seems that His Majesty has great trust in the Prince!"
"Commander of the Guards?" The Guards have always been directly led by the emperor. It is impossible for him not to know that the prince is developing his power, but now he suddenly let the prince command his imperial army. Chen Tian always felt this. There seems to be something wrong, but I can't think of a reason.
"Yes, he should be in office within this year, not surprisingly!"
"Well, I know!" Chen Tian thought for a while, and finally shook his head.
"Oli, what's the matter with you? Is there anything to worry about?" He found Oli sitting there without saying a word, his eyes did not leave the steaming cup of coffee on the table, he called out several times. Li Cai came back to his senses.
"Eh? Sorry, I was just thinking about something!" Ollie raised his head and glanced at the two of them, then looked back at the cup of coffee.
"When did you guys learn so deeply!" Chen Tian picked up the graduation photo on the table. Everyone on it was still childish, and Oli looked particularly honest.
"This time in Turkey we lost a lot of soldiers, many excellent German soldiers!" Oli's expression was deeply sad, but his voice was very calm. "I just don't understand why we should fight for the Turks' war. Money contributes, it is a cruel war, why should we take the lives of the Germans into it!"
"Oli..." Chentian was not surprised. Oli was different from ordinary Germans, because he was always thinking about why, so Chentian worried early on that this guy would fall into this problem, as expected.
"Jigi, I'm just an officer. My duty is to obey orders. I have no right to interrogate the reasons for sending troops to Turkey! But those German soldiers who died in battle can no longer see their families and motherland. I really feel cruel! "Oli said all his thoughts in one breath.
"Oli, there are some things you won't understand! I hope you can believe me, the blood of Germany will not flow in vain!" Chen Tian could not tell him that if he did not change the history of Turkey, he would be corrupted in World War I The Ottoman Empire was unable to fight against Britain and Russia, which was very unfavorable for the Allies. What's more, Turkey is also a land channel between Europe and Asia, which is also very important for Chentian's future planning.
Ollie said nothing, but the atmosphere in the room suddenly became serious.
"Germany's interests are paramount! Those precious lives are sacrificed for Germany!" Chen Tian put his hands on his shoulders.
Ollie raised his head and saw the eyes full of trust and confidence for more than ten years. After staring at each other for a few seconds, Ollie's sleepy eyes finally returned to his usual sharpness and skill.
"Gigi, I understand!"
"That's right! Ollie, I also want to thank you! You have trained a team full of combat effectiveness for Germany, and our weapons in the air, land and sea have also been tested in actual combat. This gives our technicians Bringing a lot of valuable basis for improvement!" Chen Tian also let go of a big stone in his heart to untie Ollie's knot.
"Well, stop discussing such serious political topics! In a few days, His Majesty the Emperor will personally preside over the launching ceremony of the Oldenburg battleship, let's go and participate! I heard that it is a big guy!" Thomas's This proposal reminded Chen Tian of his own experience on the way. He knew that the quality of German warships was not inferior to that of Britain, but it was a pity that the quantity was far worse.
"Good suggestion! Let's go and see the great German Navy! We will definitely defeat the British!"
Since Li Xianyun's subordinates will not be able to reach Germany for a long time, Chentian arranged for her to learn German first, and an instructor from the military school was transferred to conduct basic military training for her alone. Just like her stubborn character, she worked hard to learn 200% of each course, making it impossible to see that she was a princess who grew up in a royal family.
Two days later, Chentian took Lisa, Thomas and Ollie to the effective shipyard in Danzig to watch the fourth and last Helgoland-class battleship, the launching ceremony of the Oldenburg.
