Chapter 2392 Librarian

Alvin's conditions to Tony are exactly the same as Alfred's conditions to Enrico Denico.

The difference is that Alfred was deflated in front of Enrico Denico, but Alvin's conditions were fully accepted, and Tony hardly hesitated.

This made Enrico Denico very dissatisfied. After returning to Tony's apartment, Enrico Denico and Tony had a fierce quarrel.

"Is there any reason to hesitate? You don't think that the British and Americans' help to us is unconditional." Tony is not without a bottom line.

"Then you shouldn't agree so quickly, shouldn't you be reserved?" Enrico Denico's so-called reserved means bargaining.

"Don't be stupid, Enrico, if we don't fully accept Lord Alvin Locke's request, believe it or not, Lord Alvin Locke will abandon us immediately. There are many people in Rome who want to cooperate with southern Africans, but they can't find the opportunity Well." Tony sneered, the Grand Committee and the Senate add up to hundreds of people, and everyone is a potential partner.

Therefore, the power of choice is firmly in the hands of Alvin, and Tony and Enrico Denico are the passive parties.

"Well, if you insist on doing this, then I quit. I don't want to be a traitor in Italy, like someone in an unknown place who doesn't know how to live or die." Enrico Denico made the ultimate move and resigned.

"Enrico, figure it out, we are not traitors to Italy, but to save Italy." Tony is also heartbroken, with such a partner who is always ready to put down the pick, what is your sense of responsibility?
It is indisputable that the fat bald man has become a traitor to Italy.

Tony doesn't think he is, even if he accepts all of Alvin's conditions, Tony insists on thinking so.

Just like the fat bald head insisting that only by cooperating with Germany can Italy's international status be improved.

Their purpose is the same, but the route is different.

Alvin's promise is still very reliable, and support from southern Africa has followed.

The first is an interview invitation from The Times.

What followed was the radio address His Majesty III could only dream of.

A batch of daily necessities originally intended for Cyprus were urgently sent to Sicily for distribution to refugees in Sicily.

In fact, the refugees in Sardinia need it more, but who made the battle in Sardinia not over yet? Every day, people cross the strait and smuggle from the Apennine Peninsula to Sicily. friend.

"Luigi, welcome to the world of democracy and freedom." On the second day Tony arrived in Algiers, someone took the initiative to visit him.

"This road is too difficult, but fortunately we have seen the light." Luigi Innoti looked tired, and he did go a little far this way.

Luigi studied economics and francs in his early years. After graduating from the University of Turin, he worked as an editor for "News". Arrive in Algiers.

Luigi had been invited by Alvin, along with Archid Gasberg, who had been director of the Vatican Library.

Compared with Tony and Luigi, Archid Gasberg has a better relationship with Southern Africa. Before that, Southern Africa maintained a secret relationship with the Kingdom of Italy through Archid, and Archid arrived in North Africa by bypassing Greece.

"For a better Italy, join us, we can create a better future." Tony took the initiative to invite Einaudi to join the Italian Liberal Party.

Since you are interested in politics, you must form a party with a common program of action in order to bring like-minded people together.

That's what Tony did, the Italian Liberal Party modeled after the Southern African Liberal Party, with obvious ambitions.

Although southern Africa has a multi-party system, the Liberal Party dominates, and other parties have hardly shown any decent competitiveness.

This does not mean that the other parties in southern Africa are weak. It is only because Roque's personal reputation is too high that the political situation in southern Africa is stable.

Rock is also old now, and sooner or later he will retire one day.

Now Roque is planning to combine the Liberal Party and the Nyasaland Party, as well as the Progressive Party and other small parties to form a governing body, which may last longer.

This is definitely not the optimal solution, but Rock can only do so much. What will happen to southern Africa in the future, Rock can no longer see, it is the responsibility of Gavin and Alvin's generation.

"It's great, that's why I traveled thousands of miles to North Africa." Einaudi readily accepted the invitation. None of them were royalists, and Italy could not become a constitutional monarchy like Britain.

The British constitutional monarchy has its historical particularity. No matter how bad the situation was during the two world wars, the British royal family did not leave the UK. This makes the British royal family deeply trusted by the British people.

In order to express their renunciation with Germany, the royal family even changed their surnames. This attitude is decisive enough.

Compared with the British royal family, the Italian royal family is like a clown, swaying back and forth. Although Italy's interests have been protected, Italy's international reputation has plummeted.

Coupled with the escape of the royal family this time, the antipathy against the royal family among the Italian people has reached an unprecedented peak. Even the real royalists dare not speak out for the royal family for their own political career.

"Archid, what's your decision?" Tony continued to fight for Archid Gasberg.

"Sorry Tony, I have decided to join the Catholic Democratic Party." Gasberry had already made up his mind, and his religious background was still obvious.

"It's okay, our goal is for a better Italy." Tonillo was disappointed, but not to the point of anger.

In the evening, Tony hosted a welcome dinner for Einaudi and Gasberg in the restaurant of the Rhodesia Hotel.

Ennoti readily accepted the appointment, but Gasbery did not attend. He appeared at Leonard Capet's mansion.

"Italy and France should understand each other. In fact, all European countries should recognize the fact that we can no longer use war to resolve conflicts. The European continent used to be the center of civilization in the world, but now it has been reduced to the ruins of war and the center of the world. It's slowly becoming Pretoria, and Washington." Gasberry and Leonard Capet still have a common language, and they are both devout Catholics.

"You are right, it is time to end this, we should at least promote peace around the Mediterranean, let everyone join in, reduce disputes, embrace peace, use trade in exchange for what we want, such as me personally I really like Italian cheese, although France also has cheese, and when I want to eat cheese in the future, I can exchange it with Bordeaux champagne.” Leonard Capet was very happy, and this is what he has always wanted.

There are some words that cannot be said too clearly. Everyone is a smart person and understands everything.

As one of the five permanent members of the League of Nations, France and Italy were once powerful, and they belonged to the first group until the 30s.

The London Naval Conference was a watershed moment, with the sudden emergence of southern Africa, Japan's crazy military expansion, and the ever-widening historical gap between Italy, France, the United States, and the United Kingdom. In addition, Germany and Russia, which were excluded from the League of Nations, France and Italy have gradually fallen behind.

"Richelieu" and "Veneto", the last struggles of France and Italy.

These two classes of battleships were not the most advanced at the time. Britain, the United States, Japan, and southern Africa all had larger shipbuilding plans.

Unlike Britain, the United States, Japan, and South Korea, which successfully completed their shipbuilding plans, the shipbuilding plans of France and Italy did not go smoothly, and they were not completed until the outbreak of World War II. This fully proves the strength of France, Italy, and major countries in the world gap.

Now it is becoming clear that southern Africa and the United States have become the most powerful countries, Britain is constantly weakening, Japan is being burned, Germany and Russia are shopping, and neither Leonard Capet nor Gasberg Dare to imagine, if the brutal battles in the Russian battlefield took place in France or Italy, whether France and Italy would still exist.

I'm afraid I don't need to fight, I'm scared to death.

As the old saying goes, if you can't beat it, you have to join.

If the problem could be solved with artillery, Leonard Capet would definitely not be so peace-loving.

Even the plow and the Bible, if they worked, Leonard Capet would stick to them.

"My idea is that we should surround the Mediterranean, or invite all European countries to form an organization similar to the League of Nations to safeguard our European interests and promote the development of Europe." Gasberg is playing a big game, this idea The key point is to invite only European countries.

The experience of the League of Nations proves that if countries outside the region join, the alliance envisioned by Gasberg may eventually inevitably become a tool for some countries outside the region to exert influence. Going the other way.

The extraterritorial countries here are obvious, especially in central Africa and the United States.

Even the Japanese kind.

Now everyone is very clear that after this battle, Japan will definitely be completely reduced, and the possibility of annihilation is extremely high. Southern Africa and the United States have joined forces and now have the ability to easily attack the Japanese mainland, but An Qi and MacArthur did not do that. , not because An Qi and MacArthur are kind-hearted, but to make Japan suffer more losses and greater pain.

As it is now, the Allied bombers randomly select a Japanese city every day and drop hundreds of tons of bombs and incendiary bombs. Sooner or later, Japan will be completely bombarded by the Allied forces.

So don't think about Japan's problems after the war. This country is over. The only question now is whether the southern African troops will be stationed in Japan or the United States will be stationed in Japan.

Of course, joint garrisons are also possible, but the garrisons always have to be divided.

"So it's enough for us to have a southern Africa, don't make it more difficult—" Leonard Capet's words made Gasbery stunned for a while.

It was only then that Gasbery remembered that the United States was considered an extraterritorial country, but southern Africa was not.

Cyprus is located in the Mediterranean range, which is also in the European range.

In this case, no matter whether you only invite countries around the Mediterranean Sea or invite European countries, it seems that southern Africa cannot be avoided.

"Are Southern Africans worthy of our trust?" Gasberry didn't know enough about Southern Africa.

"At least more worthy of our trust than the Americans—" Leonard Cape hated the United States deeply.

Do you still remember that the United States harvested European capital through the once-in-a-decade economic crisis?
This history has already begun since the last century.

As an ancient family in France, the Capet family also suffered heavy losses in harvest after harvest in the United States.

It can even be said that investment in the US stock market is the biggest culprit for the fall of the Capet family.

If Leonard hadn't connected with Roque through Ada, the Capet family might have withdrawn from the French high society forever.

"The reconstruction of Italy after the war requires a lot of money." Gasberg sighed, ideals are good, but reality is always cruel.

"Southern Africa has no shortage of funds, and has the strength to help Italy rebuild. The largest and most powerful construction companies in the world are located in Southern Africa. They can mobilize human resources throughout Africa—including Asia—" Leonard · Capet's envy is beyond words, the dignified and free French Prime Minister, the human resources he can mobilize are not as good as someone's servant in southern Africa.

This is outrageous.

"I want to go to Pretoria. If possible, I hope to have the opportunity to meet Lord Nyasaland." Gasberry is pragmatic. use.

There's no shame in that either.

In this world, no country can escape the influence of southern Africa, not Italy, France, Britain, or even the United States.

Since this is the case, what is there to struggle for? There is no shame in taking the initiative to surrender. The Kingdom of Italy did not give up on the invasion of the Abyssinian Empire because of Haile Selassie I’s plea. If you come out to mess around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later.

"I can contact you, but I don't guarantee that Lord Nyasaland has time." Leonard Cape knew how busy Roque was. His Majesty III wanted to go to Pretoria. He had already applied several times and was rejected. The Federal Government of Southern Africa declined.

The reason is simple, Southern Africa is in a state of war and does not have the ability to receive His Majesty III.

This is obviously an excuse. Pretoria is preparing for the meeting of the Southern African Union. The leaders of all the Southern African Union countries will participate. invite.

So many people can be received, but why not have the ability to receive His Majesty III?

"Of course, I understand that there are some things we have to do." Gasberg was ready to be rejected. He is not the Prime Minister of Italy, but the former librarian.

It's the curator, look clearly.
