Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

Listening to Yannick's skillful arrangements, Queen Elizabeth couldn't help but mock. "Your Highness is a complete hypocrite."

Yannick said unconcernedly. "It's just what the general trend requires. Then again, which politician is not a hypocrite, old fox? You don't think that Prime Minister Churchill is a gentleman, do you? Speaking of Churchill, tsk, Her Royal Highness, if I told you, I would have bribed you Would you be surprised that he was working for us? You see, without Prime Minister Churchill, the British Empire would not have lost 300,000 elites on the European battlefield. Maybe Scapa Flow was also his cooperation. To Now the British Empire is about to fall apart, and he is still holding on. Thanks to him, otherwise I would have to find another way to continue the war. Tsk, Prime Minister Churchill and I seem to understand each other. Whatever I want, he will Give me what. Just like this attack, once Dr. Goebbels's report comes out, there will be a lot of curses!" After all, it is the most shameless and despicable behavior of a soldier to use the lives of innocent civilians as a shield. They don't deserve to be called soldiers at all, but the most vile and shameless hooligans! !

"..." Queen Elizabeth's face looked a little ugly, and she asked after a while. "Then how does His Highness plan to deal with Belfast?"

Yannick said easily. "The desire of the Irish people for reunification is strong and I certainly will not delay that for too long. Tomorrow night Belfast will be razed to the ground."

"What?!" Queen Elizabeth was shocked. "Didn't you just say you wouldn't harm civilians?"

Yannick shrugged. "We will drop leaflets in Belfast this afternoon, urging civilians in the city to leave and give them 24 hours. If they do not leave, they will automatically give up their status as civilians and become armed personnel. For these people There is no need for people to be merciful." As he spoke, Yannick turned the drawing board to Queen Elizabeth. "Your Royal Highness, can you sign your name for me?"

Queen Elizabeth was stunned when she saw the painting drawn by Yannick. "What are you talking about, Oriental painting?"

World painting art can be roughly divided into two major systems: Eastern and Western.

From primitive society to before the European Renaissance, the development of the Western painting system was roughly the same as that of the Eastern painting system. Simple and clear lines were used to outline the outline of the image to be painted, which served as the basis for the painting shape. Although painting techniques and expression methods continue to develop, their modeling techniques are basically similar.

The European Renaissance made a huge breakthrough in Western painting art. It absorbed the research results of new sciences such as perspective, color science, and anatomy, and gradually formed its own independent system. It parted ways with the Eastern painting system and began to This shows the situation where the Western painting system and the Eastern painting system coexist and stand side by side.

Simply speaking, taking figure painting, the Western painting system emphasizes the principle of perspective and the effects of light and shadow; the Eastern painting system emphasizes viewing the big from the small and the artistic conception of painting. The most intuitively speaking, Western figure paintings are generally oil paintings or sketch-like drafts, while Eastern figure paintings are generally Chinese paintings. Western figure paintings will have light and shadow effects and the principle of perspective. Eastern figure paintings pay attention to conveying the spirit with meaning, and generally do not have light and shadow effects, and generally do not have the principle of perspective.

Yannick said proudly. "That's right. Her Royal Highness the Queen of the British Empire painted by the German Crown Prince using oriental painting methods is really a wonderful combination. Maybe it will be worth billions in the future."

Queen Elizabeth reluctantly picked up the pen and signed her name on the painting, feeling annoyed. "Your Highness is really confident."

"That's natural. As long as I win this war, I will be the greatest emperor in Europe. By then, even if I draw poop, I will be praised to heaven."

"What if we lose?"

"Losing? Why do you think I will lose? Are you placing your hope on the United States? Indeed, the United States is a very strong opponent. With its unique geographical advantages, it is indeed not easy to attack the United States. But have you paid attention? Do you think this geographical advantage is also its fatal flaw? Being too far away from the World Island (Asia, Africa and Europe) can easily lead to isolation and closure. Once we defeat Russia and Europe, Asia and Africa are integrated, the United States will be completely excluded from the world. In addition, Roosevelt naturally noticed this situation and deliberately wanted to intervene in the European war situation and assist you, the United Kingdom, so that Britain and Germany would be beaten to a bloody head and he could reap the benefits. Unfortunately, the isolationist sentiment in the United States so far has Still prevailed, and Roosevelt could only watch the demise of the British Empire.”

"Russia is not easy to conquer."

Yannick said with emotion. "I have to admit this." Russia has been invaded five times in history, by Mongolia, Poland, Sweden, Ottoman Turkey, and the Napoleonic Empire.

Among them, the only foreign country that successfully conquered Russia was Mongolia.

When a nomadic nation on the rise confronts an agricultural country on the decline, the former often wins militarily first and may conquer the latter. However, over time, nomadic peoples would be assimilated into farming civilizations. They either merged with the farming people and gradually died out; or they declined rapidly and were driven back to their hometowns. The farming nation became the final winner, drawing nutrients from the nomadic civilization and continuing to develop.

After Genghis Khan, the Mongols attacked Russia again in 1237. For the first time, they swept through northeastern Russia in a blitzkrieg. In the winter of 1240, Mongolia captured Kiev, the ancient Russian capital. Afterwards, due to the difficulties in marching into the hinterland of Europe, the Mongolian army had to withdraw to Russia. In 1243, the Mongolian commander Batu established the Golden Horde with the Volga River as the center, with its capital in Sarai.

The composition of residents in the Golden Horde is complex and the levels of social development vary. When the Ming Dynasty overthrew the Yuan Dynasty, the main Batu branch of the Golden Horde Khanate was replaced by the newly emerged White Horde Khanate. Then Russia began to rise, and the Mongols gradually lost their influence in Central and Eastern Europe, Western and North Asia.

In 1472, Ahema Khan launched a war with Muscovite, and the war ended with Ahma's defeat. In 1480, Ahema again sent troops to attack the Principality of Muscovy and forced it to pay tribute. Because Ahma's ally, the Grand Duke of Lithuania, failed to send troops to assist as scheduled, Ahma withdrew his troops to the Ugra River. When he returned to the lower reaches of the Volga River, He was killed by the Nogai Khanate, and the Mongolian rule over the Rus Principality ended (the rule lasted for 238 years). By the time of Vasily III in the 1630s, a unified Russian state centered on the Principality of Moscow was basically formed.

In 1598, Tsar Fyodor Ivanovich died, and Russia was troubled by internal and external troubles. Poland sent out its troops and quickly crushed Russia. After occupying Moscow, it supported Dmitry as emperor. In 1611, the Russian city of Smolensk was also occupied by Poland. More than 80,000 people were killed, and only less than 8,000 people remained. At this time, Poland entered its heyday and became the most powerful country in Europe, with a land area of ​​more than 1 million square kilometers.

On October 22, 1612, Minin and Pozharski led the rebel army to capture Moscow. On October 26, the Polish army stationed in the Kremlin announced its surrender. Since then, Poland's vitality has been severely weakened and it has gradually declined.

During the war between Russia and Poland from 1610 to 1617, Sweden took advantage of the turbulent situation in Russia and sent troops to Russia in 1610 to capture Ivangorod, Yam and other places, and then occupied Novgorod the following year. In January 1617, the two sides signed the Treaty of Stolbovo. Sweden returned Novgorod and several other towns, but deprived Russia of direct access to the Baltic Sea. This means that Russia no longer has the strength to challenge Sweden's regional hegemony.

Russia, on the other hand, worked hard and tried its best, and after some reforms, its national strength increased greatly. In the late 1690s, Russia formed an alliance with Denmark and Saxony. In 1700, the Three Kingdoms attacked Sweden and the Great Northern War broke out.

This disastrous defeat did not end the war, but Sweden's defeat was sealed. On August 30, 1721, Sweden and Russia signed the Treaty of Nastad, officially ending the war. Sweden lost almost all of its overseas territories acquired in the 17th century and was no longer a great power. Russia gained territory around the Baltic Sea and became the most powerful country in Eastern Europe.

The Ottoman Turkish Empire and Russia fought ten wars in three hundred years. The First World Stand should be regarded as the last battle between Russia and Turkey. Russia finally collapsed under the attack of Germany, and Ottoman Turkey finally won. However, a year later, Germany was defeated, Turkey was dismembered, and the two empires of Russia and Turkey finally came to an end. . But the Soviet Union, which inherited the mantle of the Russian Empire, became even more powerful.

"But no matter how strong it is, can it be stronger than the whole of Europe?"
