Expedition to Europe

As expected, the agreement signed between Lan Fang and Portugal has triggered a new round of "Lan Fang Threat Theory" in Europe.

In terms of scale, more and more countries support the "Lan Fang Threat Theory", and the spread is getting wider and wider. In the past, only Britain and the Netherlands hyped up the "Lan Fang Threat Theory", and now Italy and Portugal have been added, and even Spain has followed suit.

The Netherlands hyped up the "Lan Fang Threat Theory" because of the Dutch East Indies, Britain because of Sarawak and Siam and the Middle East, Italy because of Sardinia, Portugal because of Mozambique, and Spain is a bit out of thin air. They hyped up the "Lan Fang Threat Theory" because of the Balearic Islands.

The Balearic Islands are the largest island group in the Mediterranean except Sardinia and Corsica. In the 21st century, this is the Balearic Autonomous Region of Spain, and now it is just a colony. In the past history, Spain had to wait a few years before planning the Balearic region as a province of Spain.

But that was only in the past. After Lan Fang annexed Sardinia, the Spanish had already felt the imminent crisis, fearing that the Balearic Islands would follow in the footsteps of Sardinia. Therefore, the Spanish government accelerated the pace of incorporating the Balearic Islands into the Spanish administrative system, while following the British and Italians to hype the "Lan Fang Threat Theory" and warned Lan Fang not to interfere in Spain's internal affairs.

Just after the opening of the Olympic Games, Spain's largest newspaper, El País, did not report the "grand occasion" of the Olympic Games, but published an offensive article on the front page titled "Mozambique, Lan Fang's next target".

Although the influence of the Olympic Games in the 1920s was not as great as that in the 21st century, it was still a world-wide sports event after all. Is it really appropriate for El País to ignore it?

Qin Zhiyuan was very dissatisfied with this issue.

"——When facing the Portuguese, the Lanfang people once again showed their ferocious fangs, and the Portuguese had to surrender——If this behavior is not punished, then the order of the civilized world will collapse, and the evil desires of the Lanfang people will endanger the whole world. We must pay attention to this possibility, because it is very likely that Lanfang's next target is us, Spain——If we don't speak out at this time, then no one will speak for Spain at that time." Misha fulfilled the obligations of a private secretary and dutifully read the newspaper for Qin Zhiyuan.

Spanish is a world language, and Qin Zhiyuan has no problem speaking it, but his reading and writing are not so good. Qin Zhiyuan often uses French and German, and even English is rarely used. Spanish has been almost forgotten for so many years. Therefore, Qin Zhiyuan has to rely on Misha to accurately understand the intention of this article.

"Spanish? Do we have any actions against them?" Qin Zhiyuan was confused and felt incredible about the accusation of "ABC".

"No, so far, but dear, the Spanish reaction is understandable, because from the map, the Balearic Islands are too close to Sardinia--" Misha put down the newspaper in her hand, picked up a map and showed it to Qin Zhiyuan.

Qin Zhiyuan put his arm around Misha's slim waist without any fat, and immediately said: "Tsk tsk, even though you have a little bean, you haven't gained weight yet, you have maintained a good figure--"

Women dress to please themselves, and Misha was naturally happy about such words, so Misha immediately threw the map back on the table and twisted it proudly: "Do you like it--"

This voice is really tempting, and Qin Zhiyuan immediately proved it with action.

After the unrighteous monarch who indulged in lust in broad daylight had a good time, he ordered people to call Gao Hongshi.

"What's the matter with the Balearic Islands?" Qin Zhiyuan asked without a beginning or an end.

"It's just the Spaniards' guess. These people all have persecution paranoia." Gao Hongshi immediately understood what Qin Zhiyuan meant. It was precisely because of this tacit understanding that Gao Hongshi could serve as the director of the Lan Fang National Security Bureau for so many years.

"Since they feel that they may be persecuted, then meet their demands." Qin Zhiyuan has always been rude to the mentally ill.

The mentally ill patients in Lan Fang will be punished for breaking the law. Those who should be imprisoned will be imprisoned, and those who should be killed will be killed. Moreover, the sentence is heavier than that of normal people, because it is necessary to consider that there will be similar behaviors in the future. The key is that this behavior is not controlled by the mentally ill patients, which is more troublesome. If the criminal suspect has a mental illness, it can become an excuse for the law to open the door, then the number of mentally ill patients in Lan Fang will only increase. The final result will be that as long as they have power or have some connection with the hospital, they will become a "mental patient".

No, it's a neurosis.

"Okay, no problem." Gao Hongshi agreed straightforwardly. Seeing that Qin Zhiyuan had no follow-up instructions, he immediately left and went back to make arrangements.

The political situation in Spain is actually not stable. Even in the 21st century, the Catalonia region in northeastern Spain is still clamoring for independence.

The Catalonia region in Spain has its own language and customs. It accounts for 10% of the population of Spain and contributes 20% of Spain's tax revenue. Therefore, the people in the Catalonia region are very unwilling. Why should we feed you "stupid pigs"?

This "PIIGS" is derived from the letters "PIIGS". Because it is similar to "pigs" in English, it is called the "Five PIIGS", specifically referring to the five European sovereign bond credit ratings in the 21st century. Low-income economies, that is, countries with economic downturns and debt crises, are: Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, and Spain.

This "economic downturn and debt crisis" is just a more elegant way of saying it. To put it harshly, people in these countries just can't do anything, they don't eat enough, and they even get stink when they fart——

Such a Spain actually dares to pick on Lan Fang, he really doesn't know how to live or die.

Gao Hongshi's response is very simple. People in Catalonia are clamoring for independence. This is easy to handle. Send people to contact those moderates and ask for funds for funds, resources for resources, and space for space. , as long as you continue to make your voice demanding independence.

For those radicals, it is more direct. They want people to give, money to give money, and guns to guns. They have only one purpose, and do everything possible to cause trouble for the Spanish government until the Spanish government can't stand it anymore.

As for what the Spanish government will do if it can't stand it anymore, this is not within the scope of Gao Hongshi's consideration, nor is it within the scope of Qin Zhiyuan's consideration. At worst, an international column will come in advance. Lan Fang is very interested in international affairs and will definitely support it. People in Spain rebelled against the dictatorship.

The current King of Spain is Alfonso XIII. This guy is married to Princess Victoria Eugenia of Battenberg, the granddaughter of Queen Victoria of England, so Alfonso XIII is the cousin-in-law of King George V of England.

George V's father was Edward VII, the second of Queen Victoria's nine children, and his mother, the daughter-in-law of Alfonso XIII, was Princess Beatrice, the ninth of Queen Victoria's family.

I really have to admire Queen Victoria. Some people are shouting all day long that she can create a nation by giving him a woman. Look at Queen Victoria, this god-like woman simply gave birth to a Europe.

Princess Victoria Eugenia is also pretty good. Although she is not like her mother who can give birth to nine at a time, she still has four sons and two daughters. However, this daughter did not inherit her grandmother's ability to govern a country and bring peace to the world. In Victoria Eugenia's case, With the help of Princess Genia, Alfonso XIII managed Spain into a mess.

Well, Princess Victoria Eugenia had not yet married Alfonso XIII when the Spanish-American War broke out. This had nothing to do with her. Spain at that time was Alfonso XIII’s mother, Maria Cristina of Austria. The Grand Duke was regent. Although Alfonso XIII was nominally the King of Spain at the time, Spain's defeat in the Spanish-American War had nothing to do with Alfonso XIII.

But then, Alfonso XIII will definitely bear a large part of the responsibility for Spain's decline.

In the two years starting in 1909 and before 1911, Alfonso XIII's reign was beset by a series of revolutionary movements, the most violent of which took place in Madrid and Barcelona.

As the capital of Catalonia, it is understandable that Barcelona demands revolution, but Madrid is the capital of Spain. Even the capital demands revolution, and Alfonso XIII can be considered a traitor.

The people in the revolution raised the banner of demanding the overthrow of the monarchy. Under the pressure of public opinion, Alfonso XIII carried out some reforms in legislation, education, religion and other aspects. And during the First World War, which determined the fate of Europe, Alfonso XIII maintained a policy of neutrality, thus sparing a weakened Spain from war.

However, successfully escaping the ravages of the world war did not earn the gratitude of the Spanish people. After the end of the world war, the Spanish people still demanded revolution, so with the support of Alfonso XIII, Miguel Primo de Ri General Vera established a dictatorship in Spain on September 13, 1923.

This dictatorship was the means by which Alfonso XIII, a dictator who was actually hated by the people, maintained his position as king.

This shows how serious the situation in Spain is.

It is precisely because of this that Qin Zhiyuan is very curious. It is really puzzling that such a Spanish would dare to pick on the Lanfang government.

Yes, hyping the "Lanfang threat theory" will indeed gain the favor of his brother-in-law George V, but this will make Spain directly face the threat of Lanfang, and by then, it will probably be different from what the "Abbesa" said. Likewise, the British will not necessarily help the Spaniards speak.

It's the water thrown out by the married girl.
