Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

"Turn your ear over," Barroso said to Chas.

Upon hearing this, Chas looked around, then leaned over knowingly.

February 5, 1908. Something big happened that shocked the world. In the records of later generations, the events that happened on this day were called "the incident of two people." Because just the day before, when people identified the two people who were in contact with the Republican Party, it turned out that someone found a suicide note left in their room, which said in English that Britain did not want to see Carlos I again. I hope they can carry out this glorious mission, and finally confirm the content of the letter that they will treat their relatives and friends well and ensure a worry-free life. Signed Henry Campbell Bannerman.

As soon as the news came out, it caused a huge tsunami that swept across Portugal. At noon, university students from the University of Lisbon, University of Coimbu, Polytechnic University of Lisbon, University of Aveiro, University of Évora, etc. all took to the streets to protest and demonstrate, especially the University of Lisbon and the University of Coimbu. Together, they took the lead in marching from the city hall to the British Embassy in Lisbon. What started as tens of thousands of people eventually turned into a team of nearly half a million people, which can be called a miracle in the history of European protests.

"It is the time of the Spanish Empire Broadcasting Emergency. Today is February 5, 1908. Just this morning, in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, there is a rumor among the people that the deceased King Carlos I and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are because of the British Prime Minister Henry Jr. A conspiracy planned with the intention of peaking the Portuguese royal family and causing civil strife in the country, leaving Portugal unable to take care of its overseas territories. Yesterday, someone saw letters in the room where the two executed regicides lived. Since this matter has been reported The whole of Portugal has been propagandized so much that today is full of angry Portuguese people. We will report the latest developments in a timely manner as to how it will develop next."

Suddenly everyone in Spain began to turn their attention to the west. From time to time he looked to the north, full of disgust, as if he was seeing a murderer.

Spain's current radio coverage rate has reached 60%, and every small village has installed radios. This is Alfonso's request, because this will help the entire Spain to hear the development of the outside world. Of course, it is The kind that is effective in management has limitations, mainly broadcasting companies and countries. In 1906, when the news came from the United States, Fessenden and Alexander installed the first human broadcasting station in New York. When Alfonso was afraid, he immediately sent someone to contact them, and finally bought the broadcasting patent rights at a high price, and was also willing to provide all equipment and other support for their research work, on the condition that the Spanish Broadcasting Company owned half of the patents.

Finally, under these temptations, the two of them came to Madrid and became one of the scientists recruited by Alfonso. In the end, less than three months later, the world's first industrial assembly line emerged based on Alfonso's suggestions to Audi. They used assembly lines to increase production speed several times or even more than ten times, so with the help of the first batch of skilled workers, in less than half a year, all major cities in the Spanish Empire had installed Broadcasting stations then spread to small towns and villages, and now almost every second household has a receiver. In this way, Spain became the first country in the world to realize the transmission of information technology. It is a journey monument whose significance is known only to Alfonso. As for other people, even if they are knowledgeable people, they just feel it. They would never have thought that the emergence of this invention would lead to its evolution into different cultural entertainment in the next few decades or hundreds of years, such as television later. network and so on. They all use the signal function to achieve the effect of live broadcast. ….

Except for Spain because of the rise of broadcasting in the past year or two, in other countries, only high-level officials or well-informed people like the media have learned about this news. Tomorrow, everyone will be shocked, because this information is simply too important. It's unbelievable.

Buckingham Palace in London, England. Someone is roaring now, and that is our beloved young and charming Edward VII of England. Because of his nostalgia for romance, his father, Prince Albert, Queen Victoria's husband, died unexpectedly on the way back to the country because of persuading him to return home. Her Majesty the Queen had a very deep opinion of her, and even wanted to remove him as the heir to the throne. , if not for the fact that he is the eldest son, he is afraid of causing opposition from the people and conservatives. Even such contact with political affairs only began to relax due to the changes in Germany at the end of the 19th century. It was not until the queen's death in 1901 that he became the new king and took up political affairs late in life.

His temper has always been very different, just like when he was in Ireland and didn't come back. If it weren't for his father who loved him so much, he would even have been willing to stay there. Unfortunately, his father who loved him very much He died unexpectedly in an accident, and because of this, his personality changed drastically, becoming more moody and gloomy. Even a few years ago, because his mother, Queen Victoria, implemented a strategy of imprisonment against him, he never made any voice of resistance. Many of his actions were made after careful consideration. However, how could this happen? What if such a result occurs?

"Your Majesty, please believe me. I have never issued such an order, and I have never written any letters. Even if I issue an order, I will never leave evidence there stupidly."

"Then you tell me, how to explain this matter? This matter will be exposed in front of the whole world tomorrow. However, what you just said, you didn't do anything, but without doing anything, now it turned out to be like this As a public enemy of the Portuguese, you became the instigator behind the assassination of the Portuguese King and Crown Prince, and as for your identity as Prime Minister, no need to think about it, everyone in the world thought it was carried out with my consent. In other words, now everyone People who know about this are looking at us, like looking at murderers. And you said you said no, how should I explain it? Could it be that I should also say no, is this a frame-up?" Edward VII angrily picked up the teacup on the table and smashed it onto the floor covered with woolen blankets. The cup body and cup lid separated, and the two kept spinning on the ground. But Henry Campbell Bannerman had no time to look at it. Instead, he stood with a blue face and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Damn it! What is going on? How could it be related to me? Could it be someone else from the empire, the Army? He's still from the Navy, but there's no reason not to tell me. Also, those letters have my signature on them, but have I ever signed them? Of course not, no matter how careless he was when signing, he would look carefully before using the pen, but now it seems that is really the case. Oh my God! If I knew who was setting me up, I would definitely give him sleepless nights, absolutely.

As at Buckingham Palace, the current German king conferred with his most valued confidant, the Imperial Admiral Alfred von Tirpitz.

"What do you think of this incident?" William asked Alfred.

“This is an opportunity, and maybe we will have unexpected gains.

"you mean......"

"Your Majesty, why have you forgotten where this incident started? I paid attention to the whole incident and finally came up with a discovery and a guess." Tirpitz stopped here, as if Act like a good boy. ….

But William glanced at him with a smile and said nothing. The latter felt bored.

"I discovered that things had calmed down before. But just today or last night, a letter tentatively written by British Prime Minister Henry Campbell Bannerman to the two murderers was discovered. Then the route followed was that not long after, the top university alliances in Portugal, such as the University of Lisbon and the University of Coimbu, began to demonstrate, and then the whole country began to respond. It seemed that something was wrong."

"What's wrong?" William II didn't hear anything wrong, he knew all of this.

"Think about it, why is the information transmitted so fast? It's not Spain. Spain has broadcasting, but Portugal does not. Not long after the news was discovered, the whole country came together to protest. You know, Portugal has five With a population of one million, excluding the mountains, villages, wild forests and other areas, there are more than 500,000 people protesting and demonstrating. What is the concept? How many percent of the people in the country participated. This illustrates a problem, that is Someone was involved in the process and contributed to this protest."

"Who do you think they are? Are they those guys from the Republican Party?" William's eyes flashed sharply when he thought of the Republicans. Although he disliked the Portuguese royal family because they were pro-British, they were also a king after all. and the crown prince were killed like this. For the king of a monarchy country, this is very shocking. This involves the personal safety interests of them. After all, someone takes the lead. Who knows if this will happen one day? Things will happen to them, so he is very disgusted with this. Most of the royal families in Europe agree. Otherwise, the kings of countries that have failed in wars in Europe for so many years would not only take prisoners and surrender every time. No more killing, this is to prevent yourself or your descendants from being destroyed one day and leaving a way out. They were just the opposite of China. He had read something about China and knew that eradication was popular in Chinese history. However, this would not work in Europe because there were too many royal countries in Europe. If you did it, it would cause problems. Public anger has become the public enemy of all kingdoms and an alternative among them.

"No, absolutely not, because the murderers are people with Republican backgrounds. They are far away and they are not in a hurry. They even hope that Britain will divert their attention. How could they get close to this vortex? I think the murderers are The two people decided on their own. As for the people to be used, it is said that many people in the University Alliance belong to the constitutionalists or are closely related to the constitutionalists, such as Chas, the president of the University of Lisbon, and the president of the University of Coimbu. Oakes, they are all very close to the constitutionalists. This protest is said to be with their permission, and the constitutionalists"

"You mean, is the person behind this sad incident..." William's eyes lit up, and he suddenly figured it out.
