Chapter 15: Leave with the pot
When night falls, the open space in the Krupp factory is filled with huge boxes. Among these boxes, the loading is the world's most sophisticated machine tool for machining artillery barrels. Of course, only the most sophisticated equipment, as for other supporting equipment, it will be remanufactured in China in the future.
The rest was to leave here with him the German artillery engineers and their families, because Gustav. Krupp told them that he feared that the Entente might try them as war criminals. So, the technicians and engineers didn't need any more mobilization, and now they were standing in the cold wind of early spring, one by one, carrying boxes, waiting for the incoming airship.
On the edge of the clearing, workers have lit several fires, which are signs to guide the airship to land at night. People who had been standing for a long time, because of the cold, gathered around the fire. The carefree children were screaming, jumping, and laughing with the joy of pre-trip.
Alfred. Krupp, with a coldness on his face that a teenager should not have, knew that a considerable part of the future of these people carrying suitcases in front of him was in his own hands.
At this time, a pair of warm hands touched his shoulders, he knew that it was his father's hand but he did not turn back, the warmth of his father's hand on his shoulder, in addition to bringing his father's special love, was more about the future burden of the Krupp family.
At this moment, there was some buzzing in the sky. Penalty of Goose Cover Orangutan Blowing Oyster Yeast Rice Cake Cake Cake Cake Cake Cake T
A swarm of "H" airships is slowly descending in the sky, and occasionally there are some German airships loyal to the Kaiser, and this time about 80 of them are also bound for Ethiopia.
This time, in order to load more things, they will drop some ballast here, and then when they arrive in Ethiopia, they will refuel in the air and then fly straight to Shandong.
As the airship continued to lower in altitude, little Alfred felt his father's hand tighten, as if he was reluctant to go. He bit his lip desperately with his teeth so that he would not cry because of his father's lack of warmth. At the same time, he raised his eyes and focused his gaze on the airship as much as possible, so that he would not cause a fluctuation in his mind because of the impending separation.
Gustav. Krupp felt his son trying to straighten up to show that he was an adult's body, and his lips moved, wanting to say a few words of care to his son, a word of care that he hadn't heard since he was 6 years old.
However, his lips only moved, and he did not utter the words, and like a son, he raised his head to see the airship slowly descending in the sky.
Needless to say, these twin-hull airships have a much larger load than single-hull airships. As their height decreased, they were now clearly visible. In front of the airship, there is a cabin with some faint lights, and it is estimated that it is the cockpit.
The cabin behind the cockpit did not have portholes, apparently this was a cargo airship. Observe the meticulous Gustav. Krupp soon discovered that the cabins behind the cockpits of these airships were apparently improvised installations.
The rear door of the cabin opens, and the hatch at the door becomes the deck for transporting goods into the cabin. The machines and equipment that have been boxed according to the data provided by the other party can fit into these cabins.
"It's a great idea, and the rear compartment can be changed at any time depending on the use, which is a fantastic design ......!"
Due to the carrying capacity of German airships, and the fact that they do not have any standardized containers, etc., their main role will be to transport engineers, technicians and their families.
On their way to Ethiopia, they will be surrounded by other airships, as their air defenses are too weak. And the phalanx installed on the "H" airship will be the nemesis of all aircraft now!
"Alfred, go, go and meet your own future, I want you to understand that you carry the hopes of Your Majesty on your shoulders, and of course you are also the only heir to the Krupp family in the future, and if possible, I hope to have the opportunity to visit you in China in the future......"
When little Alfred lifted his suitcase, when he felt like he was going to say goodbye to his parents and family, or when he might never see each other again, his tears could not help but flow down in the cold wind of the early hours of the morning.
In his eyes, there were some tears in the eyes of his father, who had always looked so strong and rigid, although his father's hands trembled with excitement, but he was always a strong father, and the tears finally did not flow.
Before the first glimmer of light arrived, the evacuating airships that had descended on Germany in the dark night slowly converged in the sky with radio guidance, and became a spectacular ensemble.
These airships were loaded not only with all the German royal staff, but also with designers, engineers, excellent mechanics and precision machine tools from Germany's leading weapons manufacturing companies. And those royal personnel were taken advantage of the night by Tang Yunyang to lead special forces to rob them from the guards of the so-called government army.
Obviously, the Germans were not as ruthless as the Russian Bolsheviks, and they did not intend to execute Wilhelm II's family, and they did not stop Kaiser Wilhelm II from evacuating with a large amount of money and valuable antiquities. There were even some Guards loyal to the German Imperial Family, who left Germany in airships and accompanied the family to the uncertain future of the island.
Because it was full of people who had left their homes, the airship was quite dull, and a considerable number of people hid in their bunks because of the sadness of the previous night's departure and the depressed state of mind. The only soldiers of the Guards who accompanied William's family were still faithfully carrying out their duties, guarding the vicinity of the royal family with weapons in hand.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and soon after, the secret agreement of Britain, France, and the United States reached Tang Yunyang's ears through the ubiquitous spies in Europe. The German side also received reports from weapons manufacturing companies such as Mauser and Krupp. All of their company's property, personnel, and equipment were robbed, and the robbers had come by airship.
Soon these news reached the ears of the heads of state of Britain, France, and the United States, and the reactions of the heads of state of the three countries to this incident were completely different.
French President Raymond. The first thing that Poincaré felt was that the war was about to end victoriously, and that France had the right to divide the property of the other side. Whether it is the property of the German government, or the technology of these companies, it will be divided among the countries that occupy Germany.
And what is happening now, it is as if someone is sneering at him.
"If you want to exclude Lao Tzu from the distribution of benefits to the victorious country, then well, since you don't want to share it with me, I have to do it myself!"
In his mind, he seemed to have seen Tang Yunyang sneering. At first, he wanted to join forces with British planes near the Middle East to intercept them, but the British Prime Minister poured cold water on his head.
"Mr. President, I think that this matter or we can proceed by means of diplomatic representation, and as for war, we do not need to think about it. After all, the war on the European continent had just given hope of victory, and the German government had not yet surrendered. Besides, I can't think of what we will do to stop the other side if they send 280 airships to bomb any of our cities.
Please believe my warning, I have just received information that they have used this method to destroy as many as 20 cities in Japan in just half a month. ”

Ramon. When Peng Huile heard the words of the British Prime Minister, he broke out in a cold sweat.
What is the concept of 280 airships (including German airships), he can fly these airships over 6,000 kilometers to reach Germany, he can use these airships to carry nearly 10,000 tons of bombs at a time to completely bomb Paris!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask himself, "If it's for Vietnam, is it worth it?" ”
As for the Americans, who had already begun arranging for their own ships to go to Europe, intending to bring back their entire army when the war was over in the near future, they had another idea.
"I really don't understand, are these Chinese crazy? Don't they understand that airships are a kind of flying machine that is about to be obsolete by airplanes, and I heard that they are still making such weapons in China, and even using them on a large scale in attacks on Japan. It is better to let them make more of these expensive and near-obsolete weapons, believing that they will suffer even greater economic losses in the future. ”
But there are other people in the United States who are not so similar to Mr. President's thoughts, after all, he did not regard the Chinese as enemies of the United States from the beginning, especially in his eyes, such a person is worthy of being a friend, who is he!
"What a strange fellow, why is he so interested in the German royal family? Is he still expecting another war? So when and in what way will this war unfold? ”
Franklin. Roosevelt knew that his "friend" far away in China would not do things that didn't make much sense. Because he has always been interested in this guy who has more of a military personality than a politician.
Or maybe it's because of the equipment in the German factories, after all, China is an extremely backward agricultural country, and if it is converted into an industrial country according to his ideas, then the workers he brought back from Europe alone will not be enough. Now, with the addition of today's German engineers and technicians, the increase in their industrial capacity will begin at a very high rate. It seems that he still intends to rely on arms sales to make his country rich, so where will the next war break out? ”
