Chapter 183 The Wright Brothers
It was impossible for Guan Xuqing to know the content of the parliament in Berlin in the Forbidden City, but he knew that no matter what, it was impossible for the Germans to condescend to make the princess a concubine for him.What's more, I have no interest in German women.

But the alliance with Germany has always been maintained. This year is already 1893, and the 19th century is about to pass away.In another 20 years, the First World War will break out, and even the gods will not be able to stop it.And Germany is its best ally. It is hard to imagine what the end of World War I would be like if Germany had the Qing Dynasty as an ally and Italy had not rebelled.If the ending is really reversed, then the whole world will change!

Thinking of this, Guan Xuqing was full of fighting spirit.He needs to change history to prove himself, he needs to bring Qing to the top of the world!

"Your Majesty, the German Minister is seeking an audience," Wang Shang said.

Guan Xuqing recovered from his contemplation, and joked: "What? Here again? You won't come this time to let me recognize a goddaughter."

Wang Shang took the opportunity to flatter him and said: "The emperor's reputation spreads far and wide, and it is possible for foreigners to send other things to please the emperor."

Guan Xuqing smiled slightly and said, "Let him in."

"twitter."

After a while, that shiny forehead appeared in front of Guan Xuqing again.Different from the last time when he left like fleeing, this time Ai Debao saluted slowly like a gentleman: "Dear Your Majesty the Emperor, I am very glad to see you so soon."

"Mr. Minister, what made you come to see me twice in just one week? But the battleship that your country promised me to build in the Qing Dynasty has already been completed?" Guan Xuqing joked.

"Oh, no, no. Your Majesty, it's what I told you last time. In order to express our friendship with your country and become an ally for a long time, our country is willing to allow our princess to marry the Emperor and become a concubine." Ai Debao Said easily.

Guan Xuqing squirted out the tea he had just drank in his mouth again.

"Pfft..." Guan Xuqing stared at the translator, and after getting a positive answer, he said slowly: "I appreciate Emperor William's kindness, but I still have to consider the matter of accepting the concubine."

Ai Debao's face was pale, and he said in embarrassment: "Your Majesty, our country is willing to marry the princess to you as an ordinary concubine. an insult."

"Mr. Minister, don't be angry. That's not what I mean. This is a big matter, and I have to discuss it with my ministers and workers." Guan Xuqing stood up and said.

"Okay, Your Majesty, please consider carefully. I will take my leave first and wait for the good news." Ai Debao withdrew.

Guan Xuqing was amused as he looked at the leaving back. From the battles against China and Thailand, it was not difficult to see that the Qing Dynasty was growing rapidly, but it was far from growing to the point where Germany could be so wooed.

Historically, it is not difficult to find out from Germany's defeat in World War I and World War II that the reason for its failure was mainly due to the fact that it was difficult to extricate itself from the whirlpool of multi-front warfare.And its No. [-] army in the world is exhausted on two fronts. If it is only a single-line battle, I believe that even the British and French allied forces cannot withstand the impact of Germany.And if he joins forces with himself, he can let the Qing Dynasty contain Russia and even harass Britain and France for Germany.In that case, Germany can really unify Europe and even the whole world.And this is what I have always wanted to do!

It seems that this time the alliance with Germany is determined. In order to win over the Qing Dynasty, they don't even want the country's face.

So far, Guan Xuqing has really felt how much a strong national power can help diplomacy.But he won't be satisfied with this, Guan Xuqing still needs to do a lot in order to achieve greater development in the future to complete his great cause.

Although historically, the First World War is still nearly 20 years away, but who can guarantee that it will not break out early like the Sino-Japanese War?History has been changed, and I can't wait foolishly but should take the initiative to attack.

At this time, Guan Xuqing suddenly remembered the Wen Ting style recommended by Concubine Lan to him, and even thought of the British tanks during World War I and the Wright Brothers who invented the airplane.

"Xuan Wen Ting style audience." Guan Xuqing said suddenly.

"Cha." Wang Shang left in a hurry, even though he was extremely astute, he couldn't understand why the emperor summoned a down-and-out Tanhua at this time.

After a while, Wen Tingshi appeared in front of Guan Xuqing.

"The minister kowtowed to the emperor." Wen Tingshi said excitedly.From the looks of it, the recommendation from her student, Concubine Lan, really worked.

"Well, let's get flat." Guan Xuqing looked at the Wen Ting style.

Dressed in a very ordinary way, and slightly aged, Wen Tingshi looked like a scholar, with an honest face unique to a scholar.This is why Tanhua was born, and he still has no achievements in the officialdom in recent years.

"Hehe, Wen Tingshi. I heard that I studied in the United States in the early years, and I have a good understanding of the human geography of the United States?" Guan Xuqing asked casually.

"Yes, Chen studied in the United States in his early years. There are also some friends who know a thing or two about the human geography of the United States." Wen Tingshi said nervously.

"I came here this time to ask you to go to the United States to find a pair of brothers who repair bicycles for others. They are called Wright. You must bring them to Qing Dynasty." Guan Xuqing pointed out sharply.

"Ah? How does the emperor know that there is a brother like Wright?" Wen Tingshi asked in surprise.

"You know them?" Guan Xuqing asked even more surprised.

"Yes, Your Majesty, when I was in the United States in the early years, I admired their brothers' research on machinery. Not only can they repair bicycles, they can even make machines fly into the sky!" Wen Tingshi said honestly.

"What? They've already built an airplane?" Guan Xuqing was incoherent when he was excited.

Wen Tingshi was even more surprised, and quickly asked: "What is the plane that the emperor is talking about? Their brothers are studying how to fly the machine into the sky, so it should be called an airplane. The emperor knows everything, and he knows their brothers. I will do my best. Can bring their brothers to the Qing Dynasty."

Guan Xuqing realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he quickly sorted out his emotions and said: "Okay, you set off as soon as possible to find their brothers and bring them to me. After that, I will reward you a lot. But remember not to let the United States know. You understand, it can only be done in your own name Invite them to meet me and say I can help them with their research."

"Cha." Wen Tingshi kowtowed on the ground.

After seeing Wen Tingshi leave, Guan Xuqing froze on the spot.Sure enough, the butterfly effect all over the world happened too fast and too suddenly. If I was still foolishly waiting, it is estimated that the Wright Brothers had already invented the airplane for Americans to use in advance.It seems that now it is time to start preparing for World War I.The British tank may have been invented!
