The Third Reich: The Return of the King

"Mr. Mainz, I heard that the emperor of your country is trying to restore the country in the windmill country at this time, I don't know what you think about this?"

Johnston also heard that the Hans did not have a good impression of the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and did not even show due respect, which made him feel a little bad in his heart.

Because Johnston himself was a man on whom the sun never sets, he was well aware of the government's attitude towards the Qing Dynasty.

The sun never sets and does not want to see the restoration of the Qing Dynasty, nor does it want to see the Celestial Empire become stronger, so the best result for the sun never sets is to maintain the current situation and maintain the division of the Celestial Empire, in this way, it is definitely much easier to deal with those warlords who are very weak than a unified government.

After all, warlords are easier to control, and in order to survive, warlords will have a deep dependence on traditional powers like Sunset, and many things need to be done by watching the sun's face, which makes the economic colonization of the Sunset Empire easier and cheaper!

With the attitude that the sun never sets, if the Qing Dynasty wants to restore the country, it is basically impossible to get the support of the sun never sets.

And without the support of the sunset, you can only shift the target to other countries!

In addition to the sun never setting, the traditional powers of the West are left with Gaul, Hans, Hairy Bear and Eagle Sauce.

Eagle sauce believes in isolationism, is not particularly keen on international affairs, coupled with their merchant stance, such a major event as the restoration of the country must not be counted on them.

And Gaul's strength is much worse than Eagle Sauce and Sun Never Sets, and the trauma brought to them by the First World War is also more serious, so Gaul at this time has no ability to support foreign countries at all.

As for the woolly bear, the country is difficult to protect itself at this time, so there is no need to think about it at all, only Hans can help after thinking about it.

In fact, there is another country that Johnston did not consider, that is, the foot basin in the Far East, but because there was a war with the foot basin, so Johnston was extremely wary of the foot basin, he always believed in his heart that there were two biggest enemies of the Celestial Empire, the first was the foot basin, and the second was the woolly bear in the north.

Compared with other Western countries, these two countries are the countries that most want to carve up the Celestial Empire and completely destroy the Celestial Empire, while most of the other Western countries just want to reap some benefits, they are too far away from the Celestial Empire, and they can't control the Celestial Empire across several oceans, and the footbasin and the hairy bear are neighbors of the Celestial Empire, so they can do this!

Johnston himself actually understands that it is extremely difficult and unlikely to get Hans's support.

Judging from the current trend of Hans, it is obvious that they are more optimistic about the warlords, and this can be seen from the itinerary of Hans's delegation's visit to China.

However, even if he knew this, Johnston still wanted to try it, and if it succeeded, the Qing Dynasty might have a chance to return to the country!

Even if they fail, they have nothing to lose, they have nothing to lose!

Mainz glanced at Johnston, this problem of the sun never setting is really acute!

Although Kaiser Wilhelm II fled to the country of windmills for refuge, he never gave up his position as emperor and still tried to return to Hans and restore his empire.

This is not a secret in Europe, there are many people who know this kind of thing, but because Wilhelm II has always given people the image of a middle and second disease, so everyone is no longer surprised by his various strange things, for Wilhelm II announced that he wants to return to Bailin, ascend the throne and restore the imperial system, any reasonable person in Europe will not be good.

The reason is also very simple, the people who abandoned him are Hans's army, as long as Hindenburg does not die for a day, Wilhelm II has no possibility of returning to Hans!

Unless Hindenburg's successor, Mainz, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, explicitly supports the restoration of Wilhelm II, it is impossible for Wilhelm II to return to the throne of Han in his life!

When I was in Europe, no one asked Mainz about his attitude, but Mainz never said anything about it.

He didn't have much affection for Wilhelm II, and to be honest, he wasn't familiar with the emperor, so he didn't want to comment on anything.

So Johnston's question is very acute, if Mainz does not oppose the restoration of Wilhelm II, then he has no reason to oppose Pu Yi's restoration, after all, Pu Yi is also the last emperor of the Celestial Empire, and the role of Wilhelm II is the same!

"I'm sorry, I don't have the right to judge other people's choices, it's the freedom of others, but I think that since the people have made their choices, then we should respect the people's will!"

This answer made Johnston sigh, and the other party rejected him in the end.

Mainz's attitude has been very clear, he will not make changes to the status quo, whether it is in Hans or on the side of the Celestial Empire!

Since we can't talk about it, we can only say goodbye!

However, Pu Yi was also generous, and did not snub the other party because the other party did not support him, but also sent a few guards and eunuchs to take Mainz and other people around the Forbidden City.

It's also strange to say, the Great Qingming Dynasty has already died out, but this Forbidden City is exactly the same as when the Qing Dynasty still existed.

After the Xinhai Revolution, the government of the Republic of China negotiated with the Qing family, retained many preferential conditions for the imperial family, promised to pay 400 taels of silver dollars a year for the Qing family, and temporarily lived in the Forbidden City with Puyi, and did not send troops to take over the Forbidden City, nor did it send people to do any "internal affairs" in the Forbidden City

The Forbidden City still retains departments such as the Internal Affairs Office, the Zongren Mansion, and the Department of Criminal Justice, and those who violate the royal law are punished by the Department of Criminal Justice, and are not handed over to the police of the Beiyang government.

This makes the Forbidden City a small court independent of the existing system of the Celestial Empire, and still retains the system before the existence of the Qing Dynasty, in this small kingdom with an area of 80,000 square meters, Pu Yi still has the status of emperor, in a sense, he has not abdicated, but the territory of the Qing Dynasty has shrunk sharply, and only the Forbidden City is so big!

Mainz only feels very magical about this reality.

The treatment of the royal family on the European side after the destruction of the country is far less good than that of the Celestial Empire.

Not to mention the distant ones, let's just say that after the First World War, the Tsar was directly shot to death, Karl I was expelled, and Wilhelm II fled to the country of windmills......

Once the country is destroyed, the emperors and kings of these countries will either flee to other countries or die unlucky at home, and basically there will be little good end.

On the other hand, the Celestial Empire's preferential treatment of the last emperor is really at the forefront of the world.

But even so, in the eyes of Westerners, the people of the Celestial Empire are still synonymous with ignorance, backwardness, and barbarism.

The internationally renowned double standard can really be seen everywhere!

Compared with the Forbidden City, which later became a 5A scenic spot, the Forbidden City in this era is obviously much more original.

At least Mainz and the others can still see a large number of maidservants and concubines in the palace, which makes him a little unnatural, wandering around in other people's bedrooms, always feeling that something is wrong, so it didn't take long for Mainz to find a reason to leave!

"Once a distinguished guest visits, I don't have anything good to give, so I will send a pair of porcelain to your distinguished guest!"

Before Mainz left, he also received a team of porcelain presented by Pu Yi.

Well, just send porcelain, he can still accept this thing, after all, there is no such authentic porcelain of the Celestial Empire in Europe.

However, the little emperor sent porcelain and two beauties at the same time, what does this mean?

"Hehe, this is the maidservant who is responsible for maintaining the porcelain, and I will also give it to the distinguished guest!"

All right!

Sending a beautiful woman can also find such a fresh and refined reason, Mainz said that today opened his eyes!

Come and don't be rude, the other party has sent such a pair of beauties, ahhh, it's a pair of porcelain, so Mainz can't lose.

"Thank you for your majesty's gift, and the foreign minister also has a gift!"

Mainz untied his own matching gun and gave it to the little emperor, this is a Dresser 1907 pistol, which is one of the few automatic pistols in the world, with a large caliber, full power, and most importantly, good looks!

The little emperor's eyes lit up, and this beautiful pistol immediately attracted his attention.

"Thank you for your gift, and I hope to see you again in the future!"
