“I just figured this out.”

Alberts seemed a little embarrassed at this moment. His originally honest image formed a sharp contrast with the in-depth strategic analysis he had just made.

He tried to cover up the other side that was revealed by his analysis by explaining that he was just speculating.

He has always presented himself as someone who doesn't know much about strategy, perhaps in order to remain low-key and inconspicuous in a complex situation.

However, this analysis inadvertently allowed him to demonstrate his deep understanding and insight into the situation.

Now, he is eager to restore his image, emphasizing that this was just a casual thought and he does not want others to pay too much attention to him and be suspicious of him.

But his explanation seemed a little weak. After all, the analysis just now had left a deep impression on people.

In his heart, he might also be worried about the consequences this exposure would bring to him.

In this situation full of variables, his every move and word may affect his future.

"Really? These words don't seem to be something that can be figured out by random guessing." Cun Yunsheng looked at the other party meaningfully and said.

Cun Yunsheng stared at Alberts with deep eyes, and his words were full of deep meaning.

He pointed out that Alberts's words were not just speculation, and further implied that Alberts seemed to have his own ambitions.

Alberts was startled by this and quickly waved his hands to deny it.

His panicked reaction revealed his fear of being seen as ambitious.

In this sensitive situation, being ambitious may bring yourself unexpected troubles.

He might be worried that Cun Yunsheng would become wary of him, which would affect the relationship between the two sides and might even affect the interests of the forces he represented.

The atmosphere became tense at this time. Alberts needed to find a way to dispel Cun Yunsheng's doubts and re-establish his honest image to ensure that he would not be at a disadvantage in this complicated political game.

Cun Yunsheng will continue to observe Alberts' actions to determine his true intentions and possible impact.

"General Cun, please stop guessing. I am a timid person." Alberts said with a wry smile.

In response to Cun Yunsheng's speculation, Alberts smiled bitterly and said that he was timid, trying to get Cun Yunsheng to stop doubting him. However, Cun Yunsheng seemed very calm and continued to express his views.

He pointed out that it is a good thing to have ambition, and believed that people without ambition are like salted fish. This made Alberts stunned, and then he fell into deep thought.

Cun Yunsheng's words undoubtedly caused waves in Alberts' heart.

On the one hand, Alberts might be thinking about the truthfulness and rationality of Cun Yunsheng's words.

In this world full of competition and challenges, ambition can indeed be a driving force, pushing people to pursue higher goals and achievements.

On the other hand, he was also worried about the consequences if his ambitions were exposed.

His contemplation reflected his inner conflict and entanglement. He didn't know how to deal with Cun Yunsheng's remarks and his own deep desires.

Alberts pondered for a moment and slowly said, "General Cun, although what you said makes some sense, ambition is like a double-edged sword in today's chaotic world."

"I am just a small person. If I have ambitions, I may be doomed if I am not careful."

"What I said before was just an occasional flash of inspiration. How can I dare to talk about any ambition?" He paused, his expression slightly serious. "Besides, I hope to protect myself and the people around me in this chaotic world and live a stable life. This is what I want, not chasing those illusory goals."

"Really?

Cun Yunsheng raised his eyebrows slightly, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Alberts and said, "Mr. Alberts, you don't have to be so nervous. In this ever-changing situation, only ambitious people can control their own destiny."

Hearing this, Alberts seemed to be thinking about something, but his brows were still furrowed, and there was still a trace of vigilance in his eyes: "General Cun, you are too serious. How can destiny be controlled by ambition alone? I have seen too many people who were crushed to pieces because of ambition. I don't want to repeat the same mistake."

Seeing this, Cun Yunsheng became even more curious. This guy has completely changed into a different person, totally different from before.

Thinking of this, Cun Yunsheng took a step forward and looked at Alberts with deep eyes: "You are right, but those people are just blinded by ambition and don't know how to use it."

"The real ambition should be to establish order in troubled times and benefit the people."

"Hmph, General Cun, what you said sounds nice, but the difficulties involved cannot be summarized in just a sentence or two. Establishing order is not easy. If there is any mistake, there will be no recovery." Alberts snorted lightly, with disdain on his face, thinking that the other party was talking nonsense.

"Hahaha, Mr. Alberts, it is precisely because of the difficulty that its value is more evident. Do you think you can stay out of it by escaping? No, in this torrent, no one can be immune. Only with lofty ambitions, like a boat that breaks through the wind, can you open up a way of survival." At this time, Cun Yunsheng also laughed.

Alberts was silent for a while, then slowly said: "General Cun, your words have shaken me a little, but I am still afraid that once this ambition is released, I will no longer be myself, and I may lose my true self."

Cun Yunsheng patted Alberts on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Alberts, true authenticity will not disappear due to ambition. Instead, it will shine even brighter in the process of pursuing great goals. You have the ability and insights, so why do you want to confine yourself to that small world?"

These words made Alberts suddenly ambitious, as if he had broken through the prison in his heart.

Alberts raised his head, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "General Cun, you are right, maybe I should re-examine myself, but I need to take this step carefully."

Hearing this, Cun Yunsheng nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Mr. Alberts, I believe that when you truly embrace your ambitions, you will discover an unprecedented new world."

The reason why I said this to him was mainly because I thought it would be better to support someone I was familiar with.

He had a certain understanding of the Pahlavi man, and he mainly liked to be a fence-sitter.

Both ways.

Want to find a glimmer of hope for Persia.

This is true, but it is not so friendly to Cun Yunsheng.

After all, his foundation is not as strong as that of Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union and Germany. If he wants to gain certain benefits, he has to support people close to him.

And Alberts was just what he wanted.

As for whether changing the king will cause turmoil?
What does it have to do with him?

Besides, this replacement cannot be done in a day or two.

Let’s set a small goal first, and build a regular army or something.

After hearing Cun Yunsheng's words, Alberts was naturally very moved.

After Alberts left, Meng Fanle couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"Sir, you have even greater ambitions. You actually instigated him to rebel."

He was truly convinced.

What was more important was that Alberts actually agreed. This was what surprised him.

Cun Yunsheng looked at Meng Fanle with a sly smile on his face: "Fanle, this can't be called instigation, this is guidance. Alberts had that idea in mind, but he didn't dare to admit it."

Meng Fanle's eyes widened: "Master, you are really amazing! If this succeeds, it will be earth-shattering. However, this matter is too risky. If he regrets it or leaks the news, we will be finished."

Cun Yunsheng put his hands behind his back, walked to the window, and looked in the direction where Alberts left. "The greater the risk, the greater the reward. The current situation is already very chaotic, but it's better to be a little chaotic so that we can take advantage of the situation. For us, this is an opportunity. Alberts is capable and has a certain influence. What he lacks is a force that pushes him forward."

Meng Fanle came forward and said, "Master, aren't you afraid that he will betray us? If he sells us out, we will be in big trouble."

Cun Yunsheng turned around, his eyes firm: "I can't be wrong about him. Alberts is not the kind of person who betrays easily. He has a desire for the future in his heart, but he is bound by fear.

"I've unlocked the shackles for him, and he's going to go down this path."

"Besides, we are not completely unprepared. We still have many follow-up plans."

Hearing this, Meng Fan scratched his head and said, "Master, I am still a little worried, but this move you made is indeed brilliant. If it really works, we can write a book in the future."

"Write a book? That's a good suggestion." Cun Yunsheng couldn't help but smile.

"That's great. I hope Alberts won't let us down." Meng Fanle was also extremely looking forward to it.

Cun Yunsheng looked into the distance and murmured to himself: "He won't, because this is his only chance, and it is also our chance."

.........

Alberts walked on the dim road, and the air around him seemed to become heavy because of the thoughts in his mind.

The conversation he just had with Cun Yunsheng was like a flame, burning fiercely in his heart and constantly stirring his heartstrings.

Before he met William and Cun Yunsheng, his wish was so simple and pure. It was enough to be a minor official and live a stable life.

At that time, he had never thought about pursuing higher power. Ambition was an unattainable word for him.

However, the trajectory of fate changed inadvertently.

As the people he met became more and more important, his official position climbed higher like a vine, and the resources and power he controlled increased day by day.

In this process, ambition was like a quietly sprouting seed, taking root and growing in his heart.

Cun Yunsheng's words were like a gust of wind that completely blew away the last trace of hesitation in his heart and burst open the door to his ambition.

At this moment, his eyes flashed with a light that had never been seen before, that was the desire for power and the yearning for the supreme position.

"Yes," Alberts muttered to himself, and his pace quickened unconsciously. "Why can the Pahlavi dynasty dominate Persia? Why can't I? I also have the ability and ambition. I can also stand at the pinnacle of power and rewrite the fate of Persia."

His heartbeat accelerated sharply because of this bold idea, as if he had already seen himself wearing a crown and ruling the world. It was an indescribable temptation that made him unable to turn back.

.........

"The German army has a greater chance of winning? The troops they sent this time are only tens of thousands of people, and they have traveled a long distance and have insufficient logistical supplies, so they cannot accomplish the task of stopping the German army's advance." Pahlavi frowned when he received the telegram from Alberts.

"In that case, the German army has a greater chance of winning?"

"It should be." The confidant explained quickly.

"What do Britain and the United States say?" Pahlavi nodded and continued asking.

"There is no reply yet, but judging from their attitude, it seems that they are powerless." The confidant spread his hands weakly and said.

These words made Pahlavi's heart sink to the bottom.

If Britain and the United States appear powerless at this time, the situation will become even more serious.

Pahlavi stood up and paced back and forth in the room.

He must make a decision as soon as possible to deal with the possible crisis.

Every choice is related to the fate of the country and his own ruling status. His eyes reveal firmness and determination. No matter what, he cannot sit still and wait for death. He must take action to protect his country and people.

"Where is the German envoy? Is he still there?" Finally, Pahlavi made his decision and asked.

"Still there." The confidant responded quickly.

"Please invite him here, I want to have a good talk with him." Pahlavi said.

This sentence is full of determination and expectation.

He knew that a meeting with the German envoy could change the course of the entire situation.

"Yes." The confidant acted quickly and went to invite the German envoy.

The atmosphere at this time was tense and solemn. Pahlavi was waiting for the arrival of the German envoy, his heart filled with anxiety and anticipation.

He didn't know what the outcome of the talks would be, but he understood that this was a step he had to take for the sake of his country and his own rule.

The entire palace seemed immersed in a depressing atmosphere. Everyone was waiting for the start of this crucial meeting, and the fate of Pahlavi would also usher in a major turning point in this meeting.

"Your Majesty." The German envoy, Major Fein, looked at the Pahlavi in ​​front of him without much respect.

This made Pahlavi a little unhappy, but he got used to it.

Because the ambassadors from Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union were the same, they didn't have much respect.

"Mr. Envoy, I want to know what conditions Marshal Rommel can offer?" Pahlavi asked.

His eyes were fixed on Major Fane, expecting a satisfactory answer.

Pahlavi knew very well that at this critical moment, cooperation with Germany might bring him new opportunities, but he also had to carefully weigh the pros and cons.

He needed to know what Germany could offer him to ensure that his country and rule could be preserved in this turbulent situation.

Major Fein raised his chin slightly, with a hint of arrogance in his expression: "Your Majesty, Field Marshal Rommel attaches great importance to cooperation with your country. We can provide military assistance, including advanced weapons and equipment and military advisers, to help your country improve its military strength. In addition, we can also provide certain economic support to promote the development of your country."

Pahlavi frowned, thinking about what Major Fein said.

These conditions sound good, but he needs to learn more about Germany's specific plans and commitments in order to make an informed decision. (End of this chapter)
