British 1986
Chapter 314 Conversation outside Gibraltar
Each of their ancestors can be related to a certain noble or royal family. It is possible that their ancestors were crew members of a certain noble family.
Their feelings for Boss Cha are not comparable to those of today's civilians.
Allen could even see some different brilliance in their eyes. This feeling was somewhat similar to the feeling that the servants in his own family felt when they saw him.
Moreover, these sailors are all lifelong sailors on this yacht. There is no such thing as unemployment. The ship is still there and the people are there, and the ship is gone. Even if the ship is gone, they can find a new yacht and continue to serve the royal family.
Standing on the deck, Allen went to the rest area above without following Boss Cha. He had just felt that the atmosphere was slightly different. Diana walked behind him and separated from Boss Cha, instead of following him as usual. Check around the boss.
From an etiquette point of view, this is definitely against the rules, but since Boss Cha didn't say anything, Allen just pretended that nothing happened. It's just that he didn't want to continue to get involved in the affairs of these two people. He had a headache just thinking about it. , might as well stand on the deck and wait a little longer.
This is the Royal Naval Base in Portsmouth. There are not too many media taking pictures on the shore to see off. It’s not that other media don’t want to come, but that the media is too small. They have no qualifications to enter here and will only cause trouble for the security work. .
A big man in a black suit, holding two walkie-talkies in his hand, walked quietly to Allen, handed the other walkie-talkie to Allen and said: "Your Excellency, I have checked everything. Is there anything else to explain?"
This is one of Boss Cha's bodyguards and one of the royal guards of the royal family. Although Allen does not participate in too specific security work, but this time he travels with him, they must report the work situation to Allen. After all, Allen is The titular captain of the bodyguard.
Allen was not in a hurry to speak, but lowered his head and adjusted a few frequency bands with the walkie-talkie. After making sure that he could communicate, he waved his hand to indicate that he should continue to work as a security guard. For such a big man, being next to him would only steal the limelight. I can't even see it!
After driving away the bodyguards, Allen held the walkie-talkie in his hand, neatly arranged the hem of his clothes with his left hand, and walked towards the deck railing to ensure that the media below could take pictures of him, and then pretended to put the walkie-talkie in his mouth. Side, staring sharply at the camera below, looking loyal and conscientious.
Kakakaka
The flash clicked. After the media on one side had finished taking pictures, Allen slowly turned an angle to ensure that the media on the other side could also take beautiful photos of himself. This thing will probably make the headlines tomorrow or maybe A secondary version.
The only advantage of traveling with Boss Cha is that he can increase his popularity and influence. Other nobles are so low-key, but Allen can gain much more popularity than him in just a few years.
Seeing the flashlights becoming increasingly sparse, Allen nodded in the direction of the BBC media before preparing to return to the rest area.
The Britannic was built using a hospital ship as a template. From the beginning of its construction, it was considered that it could be quickly modified for war, but it has never been modified. However, the hospital ship's template is mainly reflected in the number of wards, and it also has another interesting function.
There is a very huge laundry room on this yacht. This thing was originally designed to clean all kinds of gauze in time, then sterilize it at high temperature and reuse it. Therefore, the entire laundry room is very fully functional and occupies a large area. The biggest disadvantage is , the machine is very loud.
After entering the cabin, Allen felt like he was back when he lived in a high-rise building. Someone was decorating the upstairs neighbor, and they were decorating day and night. It was a bit like the sound of an electric drill and a hammer mixed together. When the laundry room was not in use, The machine will still be running, but the sound will be slightly quieter.
These machines are connected to the yacht's power system. It's not that they cannot be stopped, but that they are easily damaged once the machines are stopped, so they must be kept running at all times unless the yacht is undergoing maintenance and repairs.
This then brought about a very unique scene on the Great Britain. The cabin was extremely clean. When the sailors were not working on tasks, their biggest hobby was to wash clothes and various things. The machines were idle anyway, so they put them Everything in sight was washed, making the entire boat spotless.
Walking in the cabin, Allen felt that except for the noise, which was a bit unpleasant, he liked everything else very much. The decoration style was a splendid and exaggerated decoration style. The main thing was that it was clean, and everything was cleaned spotlessly. The conditions on the ship were much better than when he served in the Navy.
"The great and distinguished Prince of Wales, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Princess, the distinguished Lord Alan, and colleagues, welcome you aboard the Great Britain. I am Captain John Smith. On behalf of all the crew, I welcome you. It is a great honor to serve you. Service is provided, we will set sail in ten minutes, please go back to your room as soon as possible and prepare to avoid bumps."
The captain's report came out on the radio and the intercom at the same time. Allen smiled. It felt good, a bit familiar. This is the feeling of a private yacht. Everyone on the whole boat was there for them. The noblest people serve.
Within a few minutes, the hull began to shake slightly, and as a slight noise came, it was the beginning of afterburner. Then not long after, Allen felt that the hull began to move. He could not see from his current position. Go to the guide boat in front of the bow, but you can see people on the shore.
before
I don’t know how many nobles or officers set out from this port, and then took the British warships or large ships to invade or colonize the world. Anyway, this time he set out from here, and it felt amazing. In just a few hundred years, the British have been reduced to At this point, they need to take the initiative to win over some people who they would never bother to win over before.
But this time when I go to India, I have to learn from what Great Britain did before and make some extra money.
After leaving the Royal Navy Port at Portsmouth, Great Britain circled the entire Iberian Peninsula in France and Spain, then crossed the Strait of Gibraltar, stopping at Gibraltar for a replenishment.
In the lounge, Boss Cha looked at the port outside, his eyes unwavering.
Allen sat across from him, playing with a game console in his hand. Although the new Nintendo handheld still had a black and white screen, it had a lot of mini-games. When he had nothing to do while sailing at sea, besides watching TV, he could play other games. The only way to relax is to play games.
"Do you remember the last time I came to Spain?"
Boss Cha didn't look back and stared blankly at the port.
"Ah? That time in 1987, I remember, Your Highness, I didn't even go to the Spanish Royal Palace for dinner."
"Humph, just remember to eat. Do you still have contact with that Spanish princess?"
When Allen talked about Spain, the first thing he remembered was that he went to the Spanish Palace for dinner without him. It still feels bad to this day. Although Boss Cha was cursing, there was a smile on his face.
"Also, I occasionally write letters to keep in touch. I don't like her, we are just good friends."
"snort"
Boss Cha looked at Allen speaking casually, snorted coldly, glared at Allen, then pointed to the port outside and said: "That time we came here just to discuss the ownership issue here in advance, the stupid Spaniards, actually I also want to get Gibraltar back.”
"oh?"
As soon as he heard what Boss Cha said, Allen, who always liked to listen to this kind of internal gossip, stopped playing the game console. He pressed the power button and raised his head to glance at the port outside.
Gibraltar, a famous strategic location, was cut off from Spain by the British in 1713. Later, decades later, Spain and France took advantage of the independence of North America and the British were unable to take action, and launched the Great Siege of Gibraltar. Unfortunately, Later it failed.
From then on, the British garrison here also increased, and turned Gibraltar into a large naval base. Until six years after the war, Spain did not give up taking back Gibraltar, and even established a Spanish governor in Gibraltar. Unfortunately, .
At that time, Great Britain asked the residents of Gibraltar to vote to see who they would choose. At that time, Great Britain was still at the end of its peak and was still powerful. Most of the residents voted to support Great Britain and continue to surrender to Great Britain. This made Spain very angry. In anger, all communications on the island were cut off, and even the workers were withdrawn, turning the entire Gibraltar into an "isolated island".
The two sides had been arguing on and off for decades. Later, not to be outdone, Great Britain mobilized its shit-stirring spirit and granted British nationality to all Gibraltar residents who loved Great Britain. It was already 1981, and the relationship between the two parties was at a loss. It's more lively.
Later, Boss Cha came to visit. He was not dealing with the Crown Prince of Spain at that time. In addition, he had a psychological advantage. Spain was not as angry and outspoken as the British scoundrels.
With Boss Cha on the front line, the relationship between the two parties later loosened. Whether it was for the sake of relations with the entire Europe or due to the decline of Britain's strength, many agreements were signed, and finally the last battalion of troops was withdrawn last year.
Although there is no British garrison in Gibraltar now, Britain still refuses to leave this place. It is considered one of the few strategically important places that Britain has overseas.
Now Boss Cha's yacht is docked here. Seeing this port reminds him of some of the prosperous years of his ancestors. He felt a little emotional and pulled Allen to tell a lot of relatively hidden secrets.
Boss Cha looked like he was looking at my country. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Allen and said, "By the way. After we set off, you can go talk to your aunt."
Allen was listening to Boss Cha bragging with great interest. If there were no melon seeds now, he would have eaten melon seeds. Unexpectedly, just as he was enjoying himself, Boss Cha changed his tone and talked about Diana.
"Huh? What to talk about?"
"Humph, she has been a little restless recently. She thought that the things you did last year were over, and she seemed to have relapsed. This time when she goes to India, I hope she won't make trouble for me and lose my face. Go and talk to her. Let’s talk.”
Allen knew that Boss Cha was talking about the incident with the reporter last year, but...
Hasn't it been so long? Is there anything new?
"The queen knows it and she's very angry!"
Seeing that Boss Cha changed from the smiling expression when chatting to a very indifferent state when he mentioned Diana, Allen felt that there was no need to continue asking, given the current state of the two of them.
Hey, it's a headache. This is the only disadvantage of retainers. Foreign ministers cannot interfere with some of the monarch's affairs. As for retainers, it is the monarch who takes the initiative to let you get involved. But getting involved in this is good or bad, so just say no. Right.
"Okay Your Highness, I will go find the princess now."
Allen stood up with a serious look on his face, especially when it came to the title. He didn't say aunt, but princess. When Boss Cha heard the name Allen, he smiled again and nodded towards Allen.
The Earl of Carmarthen knows his position at critical moments and is a loyal minister!
"Go ahead."
Allen has only seen Diana a few times since boarding the ship. It seems that she has been very preoccupied since she boarded the ship. She would hide in her room even when eating.
Let Diana's maid be responsible for delivering the message, and Alan asked Diana to chat in the coffee shop reception area on the ship.
As a hospital ship, it has many rooms.
There are various function rooms, professional tea rooms, coffee shops, and various restaurants. The scale is not large, but it is very complete.
Diana was wearing a red and white floral dress and holding a small white poodle. She smiled when she saw Allen for the first time. Before Allen could speak, she said: "That method of yours" I have the restaurant menu with me and I will have it delivered to your room in a moment."
"Aunt, His Highness asked me to talk to you."
When he saw Diana, Allen was not as determined as he was in front of Boss Cha just now, and he could call him whatever he wanted.
"He asked you to come and talk to me? What to talk about? Tell me to be honest? Humph."
As soon as Allen finished speaking, Diana seemed to have gone crazy and asked several questions in quick succession. She looked very resentful and even the smile she had just lost was gone.
An attendant in the distance was attracted by Diana's voice here.
Allen quickly pointed to the chair and motioned for Diana to sit down first.
"Auntie, keep your voice down."
Allen asked her to meet here mainly to avoid suspicion. He couldn't go to her room to talk, right?
It wouldn't sound good if it spread out.
But Diana was extremely domineering and said loudly: "Come here, get all the waiters out. I want to talk to Earl Allen."
"."
Seeing the barista, a cook and several waiters, as soon as Diana finished speaking, he took the things and went out in a very polite manner, Allen was speechless.
If there were spies here to check on the boss, wouldn't it mean that if they were withdrawn now, they wouldn't hear any news?
"Haha, there's no one around this time. Tell me what he asked you to talk to me about."
Diana sat down, crossed her legs, put her little poodle on her lap, and looked at Alan in a very unladylike manner.
"Your Highness is talking about going to India this time. I haven't asked you what happened. You haven't come out much since you got on the ship. What are you...?"
"It's nothing. We had a fight some time ago. Did he tell me not to cause trouble?"
"Um."
"Hmph, the more he refuses to let me go, the more I will make trouble!"
"."
