Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 41 Before the 1908 London Olympics

"No, it definitely doesn't mean that. In terms of the family network, Britain is my wife's natal family, and the British royal family and we are related by in-laws. There is no reason for a son-in-law to attack his father-in-law's family. As for the opinions of those people, they only look at Just look at the surface of the matter. In fact, after everyone is open and honest about many things, if they are resolved, the relationship will make rapid progress. Just like interpersonal relationships, we are like this now. This is the bottom line of Spain. We will stick to our bottom line. At the same time, Beyond the bottom line, we will continue to maintain friendly and close relationships with all partner countries."

"The British will ask, what should we do now to bring the two countries back to the friendly state of the past, and what should Spain do?"

"No, this is not a forced reconciliation by dividing tasks, but a sincere exchange between the two countries. We in Spain sincerely hope that the United Kingdom can continue to prosper. We will continue to maintain friendly relations with the United Kingdom. We will continue to Developing friendly people-to-people exchanges and close exchanges between the royal family and the government. This is our Spanish foreign strategy."

"What do you want to say to the prince now that he is about to be born?"

"Haha, what I want to say most now is, baby, grow up well. Your mother Patricia is working hard every day. Your grandmother is looking forward to you every day. Your father is listening to your voice every day. Spain The people are eagerly looking forward to your arrival, my child, to grow up healthily."

"What touching words for a parent. So, Your Majesty, what do you want to say to Queen Patricia?"

"As a man, I can't understand the hardship of pregnancy, but I can see her slight and careful movements every time she stands up and sits down again and again every day. This is the maternal love action of a great mother. Seeing this She reminds me of Christina, who is also my mother. When she was pregnant with me and raising me, she must have been through this process. It made me deeply understand the feeling of being a father, and at the same time, I also felt the greatness of maternal love even more. . So here I would like to say thank you to Cristina, my mother, for your hard work. I would also like to say thank you to Patricia for your hard work. It is you who have brought hope for the future to Spain. You are the best."

"Every word of His Majesty's words is touching and thought-provoking. Changing the topic, I heard that Spain is currently competing for the 1908 London Olympics, and the team has an unprecedented number of more than 200 people?"

"Yes, to be precise, there are 205 people, which is only less than the 710 people of the host country, the United Kingdom, and the 220 people of the French Republic, ranking third."

"Why did Spain send such a large lineup to this Olympics? Some people say it is to challenge the status of the British host nation. After all, Germany also sent a 192-person lineup this year. Many people are wondering whether this is a fight between the two countries. Into the sports world?"

“Is there that much in Germany?”

"?"

"I really didn't know that Germany would send such a large lineup, but think about it. In the first Olympics, apart from the host Greece, which had over 200 people, the second largest number was Germany and France. And in the second Olympics, Needless to say, Germany also sent out a large number of people. At the last St. Louis Olympics in the United States, due to the vast ocean distance, expensive travel expenses, and concerns about the development of the naval war between Japan and Tsarist Russia in the Far East, France and Spain included Many European countries did not attend. In the end, there was only one person from the United Kingdom, but 17 from Germany. It can be seen that Germany’s identity as an Olympic power has always existed, so it is understandable to send such a strong lineup this time. As for Spain, hehe, I I am also a person who likes sports very much. To be honest, I really want to participate. I even thought that I might win a gold medal. However, due to the sensitive element of my identity, I still stopped. No, this task is It falls on these athletes from the Empire, and I hope they can all achieve good results.”…

"The last two questions. The first one we want to ask is, I heard that Your Majesty will come to London to watch this London Games in person. Do you know the accuracy of this news?"

"I shouldn't have said it at this time, but since you asked, I can only answer it now. That's right. I will watch several Spanish Olympic competitions when I visit London to pay tribute to the athletes of the empire. Applause and cheer”

"That would be a real honor for them. Finally, we want to ask, what role does faith play in your idea of ​​governing the country?"

"First and foremost, we must submit to any common sense, and common sense is based on moral principles. It is difficult to separate moral principles from religious concepts today."

"Thank you for being willing to interview with us again..."

****

"Jericho, have you heard that His Majesty will come to London to watch our game in person this year? It's really awesome."

"Wait a minute, did His Majesty say he would go to our football match? It seems he didn't say it when he was interviewed by Time magazine. Don't be too happy too quickly."

"Romeo, don't even think about it. There is no other sport in Spain that is more popular than our football. His Majesty will definitely go and watch it, especially since there are a few of us here. Hehe, I'll help you. Where you appear, the Spanish beauties are not very sensational. Think about it, the lovely and beautiful girls in the UK should be no exception! By then, hehe, we will definitely have a large number of fans of British beauties."

Romeo, Jericho and Raul are all players in the Spanish football national team. Romeo is the goalkeeper, while Jericho is just the opposite. He is the sharp knife and main scorer of all-out offense. The two of them are the main players of the Spanish national team one after the other. Before, they also belonged to different teams in Spain. Jericho belonged to the Barcelona team. Barcelona has always been the most offensive team. Fluency is the most famous and popular in Europe.

As for Raul, he belongs to Real Madrid. Real Madrid used to be called Madrid Football Team instead of Real Madrid. It was not changed until 1920. The reason why it was named earlier is of course because of Alfonso's contribution. . Raul belongs to the position of front midfielder. His position is to connect the front and back, which is a very critical position. He is also the ace player of Real Madrid. His skills make other European midfielders eclipse in front of him, and he is also the most pleasing to the eye, so he is very popular among people.

As for Romeo, Atletico Madrid is one of the three giants in Spanish football. Romeo is known as the best golden goalkeeper in Spain. His existence itself makes the Spanish national team attract more attention from other European countries.

All three were participating in the Olympic Games for the first time, and they were all surprisingly the same age, born on September 2, 1886. Therefore, they are called the Three Musketeers of Spanish football by the European media.

"Okay, you all go to practice now. The king will definitely come to watch your game this time. Come on, you brats, don't embarrass the king."

"Ah, it's Minister Elena." Raul and the others looked back. Unexpectedly, at some point, Elena, the empire's minister of regional policy and social public administration, appeared in front of them. Look again, people say that there are two golden flowers in the Spanish government. One is Elena, the minister in charge of local politics and public administration, and the current Minister of Culture and Education Lais. When Lais was studying I have seen it, it is very beautiful and moving, but I have never seen a younger Elena. Now when I look at it, this golden flower is really not blown out. Even they who are only in their 20s now feel their hearts pounding. kept jumping. ….

Elena felt funny when she saw how the young men who were talking so loudly now became shy and nervous. These young men are the same age as Your Majesty, but how come they are so calm when we see them now, yet they have different reactions when they meet her for the first time? Could this be due to different visions? Is the effect different? Elena thought a little puzzled. However, if she doesn't understand, she still won't forget what she should do.

"Everyone, I am here today just to encourage you, because you are the hope of the country's future. With your presence, the Empire will not be alone in the sports world, and your fans will not be lonely, and we government personnel will not be lonely because of It is also a honor to have your presence. This time the Empire is marching out to Britain, needless to say your enthusiasm has been aroused. What I want to say now is that His Majesty has also felt his whole body boiling, and this time he will personally watch it You have seen the match between you and the British national football team, and the various events that have happened between the two countries during this period. Diplomacy relies on strength, culture is also strength, and your strength as athletes is also part of the strength of the empire. By the way, Let me tell you, King Edward VII of England has also said that he wants to watch your game."

"Ah, isn't it that the supreme rulers of the two countries want to watch our game?" "It's a lot of pressure, but we will never embarrass the king." "Yes, we will definitely do our best to protect the king and the glory of Spain." "Long live Spain, long live the King..."

"Very good, it's best if you think so. In fact, in addition to them, there are also His Majesty the Kaiser Wilhelm II and French President Armand Fallier, etc. attending the London Olympics this time. Maybe you will You will see them on your battlefields, boys, come on, come on for the Spanish Empire..."

"Come on, come on Spain"
