Conquering the world from the Kaiser's driver

Seeing his look, Yang Ke curled his lips and said unhappily:

"Don't look at me. I have my bottom line, but I can't control your compatriots. After all, I'm just here to help. It's not appropriate to control too much. I don't know if they will do anything to your sister."

"You...you...I...wuwuwu..."

Zhang Yunsheng's voice changed from a roar to a whimper, and finally he began to cry softly, with endless regret in his heart. He regretted that he had to come out at that time, and regretted not leaving with Qi Hanhai earlier.

But now that things have come to this, nothing can be done.

He cried, "I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything! I just ask you not to do anything to my family!"

Seeing Zhang Yunsheng finally surrender, Yang Ke showed a satisfied smile on his face. He released his hand and thanked him sincerely: "Very good, Mr. Zhang Yunsheng, thank you for betraying the revolution and choosing to cooperate with us."

Zhang Yunsheng cried bitterly and collapsed to the ground. He pounded the ground weakly with one hand and kept muttering "I'm sorry".

Yang Ke kindly helped Zhang Yunsheng to stand up. After he stood up, Zhang Yunsheng looked into his eyes and asked tremblingly, "Why do you know about my family?"

"You don't have to worry about this. We have our own methods and sources of information."

Yang Ke replied nonchalantly.

In the following time, Yang Ke could not wait to ask Zhang Yunsheng everything about the LKMT in Hangzhou, and Zhang Yunsheng answered one by one. Although he said that he was Qi Hanhai's subordinate and did not know much, he still provided quite useful information to the spies in Nanjing.

After getting all the information, Yang Ke brought the dazed Zhang Yunsheng to the interrogation room. Qi Hanhai was still in a coma. Even though Qi Hanhai was unconscious, Zhang Yunsheng did not have the courage to face him.

"Mr. Zhang."

Yang Ke said as he handed a dagger to Zhang Yunsheng.

"Please kill your companions. This is for your own good. You must completely break with them."

"I...you guys!"

Facing the helpless and furious Zhang Yunsheng, Yang Ke chuckled and said, "If you don't kill him, we will cure him and tell him about your betrayal. Then we will lock you two in different rooms and release them randomly. It may be you who goes out first, or it may be him. It all depends on your choice."

"I have something else to do. You decide for yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ke left the interrogation room. He returned to his room in high spirits, took out his radio transmitter and reported the situation there to the Military Intelligence Agency headquarters in Germany through a secret frequency band.

On the other hand, Zhang Yunsheng, who had hesitated for a long time in the interrogation room, finally couldn't bring himself to kill his former savior. He threw down the dagger and left the interrogation room. The secret agent took him to take a shower, change clothes, and then took him to find his sister.

In the following time, Qi Hanhai received treatment as Yang Ke said. He was informed of Zhang Yunsheng's betrayal. He was angry but also calm at the same time, because Zhang Yunsheng's betrayal was completely foreseeable. He only hoped that he could leave here before Zhang Yunsheng and go back in time, even though he knew that he would never be able to see other comrades alive.

A day later, Hangzhou police received a report that an unidentified male corpse was found in an alley. The identity of the deceased was confirmed through identification by a teahouse waiter. His surname was Qi and his full name was Qi Hanhai, but his specific occupation was not so clear.

That night, Qi Hanhai's contact did not meet Qi Hanhai, but met Zhang Yunsheng instead. He told the organization that Qi Hanhai was brutally killed by spies and his body was thrown on the street. However, this episode did not affect the uprising plan because everyone believed that Qi Hanhai was a staunch revolutionary fighter.

Chapter 274 Theresa

At around 11:50 am on May 3rd, Hans and others in front of the gate of Sansouci Palace saw a car they were very familiar with driving over. After seeing the car, Hans turned around and opened the gate of Sansouci Palace with Vic.

The car that drove over was Lin Shangzhou's car. He was the only one in Germany who had such treatment.

The car stopped at the door with Bode driving. Lin Shangzhou rolled down the window and greeted Hans and the other three enthusiastically. The four also responded to him enthusiastically. Lin Shangzhou had a very good impression of the four of them. After all, if the four of them had not been there, the murderer who killed his uncle would not have been arrested immediately.

After saying hello, the car drove into the Worry-Free Palace. As the car drove on the road inside the palace, Lin Shangzhou saw through the window that Cecilia was sparring with a strange blonde girl with a wooden sword in the garden, while Alexandrine was sitting on a chair nearby cheering for her sister, and beside her were Letitia and Noah.

After seeing this scene, Lin Shangzhou looked at Cecilia and the others outside and said to Bode: "Bode, stop the car. I'll get off here."

"Yes."

After the car stopped, Lin Shangzhou looked at Bode and said to him, "After parking the car at the usual place, you can move freely. You can walk around Wuyou Palace, or come to find me. It's up to you."

Bode, who was originally very happy, immediately felt disappointed when he heard this. Even though Lin Shangzhou had ordered him to move freely, did he really dare to move freely without following Lin Shangzhou?

Although there is no possibility of danger here, his other immediate superior is here.

Bode curled his lips in frustration, and then said to Lin Shangzhou: "There is no need for free activities, your safety is more important."

"What could be here..."

Lin Shangzhou was about to say something, but before he could finish his words he remembered that Cecilia was still there, so there was nothing more to say.

He closed his mouth, nodded, closed the car door, and turned to walk towards Alexandrine and others.

Alexandrine had noticed him a long time ago. When she saw him coming towards her, a bright smile immediately broke out on her face. She stood up from her chair and waved to him.

When Lin Shangzhou saw the German Emperor waving at him, he smiled and stretched out his hand in response. Noah and Letitia beside Alexandrine were quite restrained. They exchanged glances with him and then focused on their work.

Cecilia, who was sparring with others, was distracted for a moment and looked at Lin Shangzhou. The blonde girl opposite her saw her like this and shouted, "Cecilia, don't be distracted at this time!"

As she spoke, she rushed towards Cecilia, waving the wooden sword in her hand. Cecilia was not at all flustered, and slowly raised the sword in her hand to prepare for defense, and then easily resolved the opponent's attack. However, this also allowed her to collect her thoughts and concentrate on the competition in front of her. Anything could be dealt with after the competition was over.

When Lin Shangzhou was only a few steps away from Alexandrine, she walked quickly towards Lin Shangzhou and said with a smile: "Fritts, you are here!"

"Well, I plan to have lunch at Wuyou Palace at noon..."

Hearing this, Alexandrine opened her mouth wider, the smile on her face became brighter, and she nodded repeatedly before Lin Shangzhou finished speaking.

"Of course, just tell Noa what you want to eat and she'll ask the kitchen to make it."

The Kaiser's behavior was within Lin Shangzhou's expectations. He nodded and looked at Noah. The latter had of course heard his conversation with the Kaiser and made an OK gesture to Lin Shangzhou.

Lin Shangzhou didn't know when Noya started to replace Elena and appear beside the German Emperor. According to Noya, Elena intended to train her to be the head maid, so she let her replace Elena to serve the German Emperor.

However, it will take at least ten years for Elena to retire, so Noah herself will just cultivate her relationship with the German Emperor. After all, in her heart, if nothing unexpected happens, Lin Shangzhou will marry Alexandrine or Cecilia, although this girl may not know how difficult this matter is.

"Let's go sit down. Leah is sparring with Theresa."

Alexandrine pulled Lin Shangzhou's sleeve and walked towards the chair. The blonde girl who was sparring with Cecilia accidentally glanced at this scene and couldn't help but be distracted. She was surprised why Emperor Alexandrine was so close to this strange man?

Cecilia keenly caught her momentary distraction, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up, and then she shouted at her just like she did to herself just now: "Theresa! Don't be distracted!"

Theresa felt a little ashamed after being hit by the boomerang, and she seemed to think that her distraction was caused by Lin Shangzhou. She looked at Lin Shangzhou who was walking towards the chair with displeasure, gritted her teeth and growled irritably: "I know! You don't need to remind me!"

Lin Shangzhou was pulled by the German Emperor to sit on the chair next to her. There were four chairs in total. Lin Shangzhou knew that three of them were prepared for Alexandrine and others, and the remaining one might be prepared for the guests of the Worry-Free Palace, and of course it might also be prepared specifically for him.

Lin Shangzhou didn't think much about this matter. He was more curious about the identity of the girl named "Theresa" who was sparring with Cecilia not far ahead.

"Theresia?"

This name reminded him of a pink-haired girl. Of course, this preconceived notion was just something he thought about. Whether it was Theresa, Cecilia or his own German surname, they were all names and did not refer to anyone in particular.

Noah stood beside Lin Shangzhou and poured him a cup of tea. After hearing what Lin Shangzhou said, Alexandrine looked at the two people who were sparring in front of her and said, "She was one of the people sent by the Austro-Hungarian Empire to participate in special training for the Storm Commando some time ago."

"Oh, I see... So they are from the Austro-Hungarian Empire."

Lin Shangzhou nodded, took the teacup handed to him by Noya and expressed his gratitude to her.

After taking a sip of tea, Lin Shangzhou said to Alexandrine: "But I think her true identity should not be that simple."

"She was able to come to the Wuyou Palace alone, and the tone she used to talk to Cecilia just now didn't sound like a superior-subordinate relationship at all. Her identity as an outstanding member of the Austro-Hungarian magic force is not enough to explain this."

At this time, Bode walked over quickly, greeted Alexandrine, stood beside Lin Shangzhou, and began to carefully watch the competition performance between the two not far ahead.

"Fritts, you are very observant."

Alexandrine told him, "Her full name is Karl Theresa Conrad von Herzendorff..."

"Conrad?"

Lin Shangzhou was stunned when he heard Conrad. This name reminded him of someone. Alexandrine didn't say anything more because of his words. Instead, she looked at Lin Shangzhou in surprise and asked, "Do you know this name?"

"Ah."

Lin Shangzhou nodded and said, "If I guess correctly, the Conrad in her name should refer to Marshal Conrad, the Field Marshal of the Austro-Hungarian Empire."

After hearing Lin Shangzhou accurately explain the information contained in the name Conrad, Alexandrine looked at Lin Shangzhou with a little more admiration in her eyes.

"Yeah, Fritz, you are amazing. I didn't expect you even knew this. When I first heard this name, I had no idea what it meant."

"That's nothing. If you are familiar with the history of the last war, you will know this Marshal Conrad."

Lin Shangzhou chuckled and said nonchalantly, if you know a little about the history of World War I, you will know this Marshal Conrad. Thinking of what this marshal did in World War I, he felt a little sad.

This marshal in Otl is quite controversial, but since Austria-Hungary won the battle here, he will probably be less controversial. After all, the winner usually has a buff bonus, but this does not affect Conrad's own lack of ability.

Lin Shangzhou looked at the blonde girl who was having a passionate affair with Cecilia in front of him, and said to Alexandrine after a few seconds: "She should be the granddaughter of Marshal Conrad."

"Ah."

Alexandrine nodded. The relationship between Theresa and Conrad could be guessed with just a little bit of thinking.

"And what does the 'Carl' in her name refer to?"

Lin Shangzhou asked in confusion.

"Her full name is 'Karl Theresa Conrad von Hetzendorf'. Conrad is her grandfather's name, which is her middle name and her last name. What about 'Karl'?"

"I don't think anyone would give a girl a masculine name like 'Carl'?"

Lin Shangzhou looked at Alexandrine curiously, expecting her to answer his question. When it came to Karl, the first person that popped into his mind was Karl Marx, who had nothing to do with Theresa. The second person that came to his mind was the Emperor Karl of Austria-Hungary...

(Carl?)

Thinking of Karl of Austria-Hungary, an idea popped up in Lin Shangzhou's mind.

(Could it be…)

Before the thought could take shape he heard Alexandrine's voice.

"Theresa is the adopted daughter of Emperor Karl of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. To indicate her royal status, Emperor Karl added a Karl before her name."

"Oh~ I understand."

Although he had already guessed it, Lin Shangzhou was still a little surprised when he heard the news. He nodded slowly and said, "So she is His Majesty Karl's adopted daughter. This makes sense."

No wonder Theresa could come to the Sanssouci Palace alone, and her conversation with Cecilia did not seem like a superior-subordinate relationship at all. It turned out that this girl was on the same level as Cecilia. Since she was an Austro-Hungarian princess, it was not surprising that she was invited to the Sanssouci Palace.

He looked at Theresa, and after a few seconds he slowly said, "So it seems that Theresa and Cecilia are very similar. They both have the same identity and have joined the magic force. Their strengths are not much different."

"Fritts, what you said is not quite right."

Hearing Letty's voice, Lin Shangzhou turned his head and looked at Letty, who looked into his eyes and explained, "Since the two of you competed until now, Lady Cecilia has won 6 games, lost 1 game, and tied 1 game."

Letitia's words made Alexandrine raise her head happily and said proudly: "My Leah is amazing!"

"Fritts, isn't that right?"

Lin Shangzhou smiled and nodded slightly without saying anything more.

The next step is to wait for those two to finish this match.

Chapter 275 Do me a favor

Looking at Cecilia and Theresa fighting in front of him, Lin Shangzhou raised his head and asked Bode out of a playful mood: "Bode, who do you think you can beat between the two of them?"

Bode, who was watching his superiors sparring, was immediately speechless when he heard this question, but he leaned over and answered seriously: "In terms of close combat, I can't beat Captain Cecilia and Lady Theresa."

Alexandrine, who was standing by, looked at Lin Shangzhou proudly after hearing this answer. Her eyes seemed to say: See, my sister is better than your guards.

In response, Lin Shangzhou just smiled and did not make any response.

However, Bode was very concerned about Alexandrine's expression, so he changed the next words he was going to say.

After Alexandrine's expression ended, he continued, "However, in actual combat and exercises, I can hold you two back for a long time, because my aerial maneuverability is much better than theirs, but it is limited to holding you back. It is impossible to defeat you two."

There was a hint of helplessness in his tone, and when he finished the last sentence, he glanced at Alexandrine's expression out of the corner of his eyes, and felt relieved when he saw that she had no reaction.

"I understand."

Lin Shangzhou nodded slowly, picked up the teacup beside him and took a sip of tea. He thought of the second favor he wanted Bode to help with and planned to tell him when he got back.

On the grass not far ahead, Cecilia and Theresa were fighting fiercely, but Cecilia's mind was not always focused on the competition with the person in front of her. She couldn't look at Lin Shangzhou, but her heart was always thinking about the agreement with Lin Shangzhou.

After repelling one of Theresa's attacks, Cecilia stuck her sword into the ground and stretched out her hand to signal Theresa to stop. This made Theresa very confused, and several people around her were also curious about what Cecilia was trying to do.

Theresa also stuck her sword into the grass and wiped the beads of sweat that were about to drip from her chin with her left hand. Her amber eyes were full of doubts.

(What does she want to do?)

Ever since the man came over, Theresa noticed that something was wrong with Cecilia. Although she was weaker than Cecilia, the two of them had a back-and-forth fight, with each of them having their moments of attack and defense.

But ever since the strange man came over, Cecilia had been on the defensive and seldom attacked. It was obvious that she was distracted. Since she didn't show it clearly, Theresa couldn't mock her directly. Besides, being on the defensive was also a tactic.

Cecilia said to Theresa seriously, "Let's call it a draw this time. I'm hungry. Let's take a shower and eat."
