Chapter 563 The children have grown up
Whether he was in the Danish Navy or the Mediterranean Fleet, Georgi never forgot that he was a Greek.
Greece is in unprecedented danger. Once it loses the protection of the Russian Empire, Bulgaria can tear Greece into pieces.
Of course the Greeks never forget George I.
The Bulgarians have not forgotten the humiliation they suffered during the Balkan Wars.
As deputy commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, Georgi did not stay in the Sultan's palace arranged for him by Venizelos, but lived on the battleship "Russia".
The visiting fleet led by Georgi consists of six warships in total. In addition to the battleship "Russia", there are also two armored cruisers "Volga" and "Yenisei", and The light cruiser "Lion", the "Beagle", and the supply ship "Kvass".
Kvass is a Russian fermented drink, similar in color to beer, made from raw materials such as brown bread or bread crumbs, water, sugar, yeast and lactic acid bacteria.
Kvass is not only a thirst-quenching drink, but also often appears in dishes as a condiment. It is a traditional delicacy that Russians love very much.
Due to the border patrol conflict that just occurred some time ago, Venizelos attaches great importance to the security of the visiting fleet, and martial law is imposed inside and outside the military port after nightfall.
Not long after Georgi fell asleep, he was woken up by the captain of the "Russia" Paul Magokev.
"Wake up, something happened, we have to leave."
Magakiv is fully armed, with guns and swords.
“What happened?”
Georgi hurried out.
On the dock, the excited Greek officers were confronting the sailors of the Mediterranean Fleet. The "Russia"'s gangway had been retracted, but the cables had not been untied. Without the help of the tugboat, the "Russia" could not move at all.
“We want to see Prince Georgi. We are not carrying weapons. Please believe that we are not hostile.”
The Greek officer leading the team used proficient Russian to communicate with the officers on duty of the Mediterranean Fleet. .
"There are no princes here, only General Georgi of the Russian Empire."
The officer on duty displayed Russian arrogance to the fullest.
"Do you know what we are going to do? We are going to invite Prince Georgi to go to Athens to be the king -"
The Greek officers couldn't wait. This was the result of a dragon.
The officer on duty was stunned, are all your coups so random?
It’s not just that casual.
A country of more than 100,000 square kilometers with a population of 3 million is a little bigger than St. Petersburg. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as "depending on the mission".
It is no exaggeration to say that even without the support of the Greek military, the fleet led by Georgi alone could oust Constantine.
George only learned of the coup in the Kingdom of Greece the next day.
Venizelos did not harm Constantine and sent Constantine and his family to Crete. This was a return visit to his hometown for Constantine.
Before Berlin had time to express its position, Britain, France and Russia immediately recognized the legitimacy of Georgi's accession to the throne.
Georgi’s wife is Princess Marie Bonaparte from France.
London was also deeply concerned about the Kingdom of Greece's invitation to German instructors.
George didn’t care about Germany’s reaction. Polis met Ferdinand’s eldest daughter, Princess Elizabeth, at the 300th anniversary celebration of the Romanov family. According to Alexander’s report, Polis and Elizabeth met every day these days. together.
"Liz is very nice, sensible, well-educated, and will be Bob's good wife."
Anne is very satisfied with Elizabeth.
George is at a loss. He is only 17-18 years old. Is he about to get engaged?
"Why not? Bob is the king now. It would be a good thing for Bob to get engaged as soon as possible. Victor wouldn't object, right?"
Anne is not sure about Ferdinand's opinion. Victor is Ferdinand. Nan's middle name.
“Are they related by blood?”
What George is most worried about is that if Polis and Elizabeth are together, they will give birth to a bunch of imbeciles.
But it’s not necessarily true. Although there is a high probability of giving birth to an imbecile child if a close relative gets married, there is also a certain chance of giving birth to a genius. "Yes!"
Anne gave George a big look.
If you carefully calculate the European royal families, they are actually all relatives, as long as they are not direct relatives.
From George's side, Polis should be considered Elizabeth's cousin.
Counting from Anne, Polis is Elizabeth’s cousin.
Since Elizabeth does not carry the hemophilia gene, George does not need to worry that Polis and Elizabeth's children will suffer from hemophilia.
It would be nice not to have hemophilia.
One Alexei is enough to make all Russian Grand Dukes be wary.
Before George even had time to inspect Elizabeth, Ferdinand came to visit with his wife, Princess Mary.
"George, George, your son kidnapped my daughter, tell me what to do!"
Ferdinand was arrogant and Mary was extremely embarrassed.
"Alex, I have a new batch of sun cream here. You will definitely like it."
Anne showed extraordinary enthusiasm. Mary's full name is Mary. Alexandra Victoria, Alex is Alexandra's nickname.
"Great, I just need it!"
Mary couldn't wait to follow Anne and sneak away.
George invited Ferdinand to the study.
Alexandra (George's eldest daughter) tiptoed past the stairs. George snorted coldly. Alexandra felt like she was struck by lightning, as if she had been cast a restraining spell, and she remained still. The posture of tiptoeing, feet forward and back, motionless.
George has a headache, who does this girl belong to.
"Alex, I'm so glad to see you. What are you going to do?"
Ferdinand's extraordinary enthusiasm for Alexandra.
"Um, Sasha said that an unusually big horse came to the manor, and I was just going to take a look."
Alexandra was obedient, and when she answered, she didn't forget to pinch the hem of her skirt and look at Feidi. Nan curtsied and saluted.
"Go, go, have fun -"
Ferdinand smiled like a strange uncle.
George was instantly alert.
Sure enough, when he sat down in the study, Ferdinand began to sell George hard. His eldest son, Carol Karaiman, was 18 years old and had graduated from St. Petersburg University with excellent academic performance. If there were no accidents, Carol would be Is the king of Romania.
"Congratulations, it sounds like you have a qualified heir."
George was smiling but not smiling.
"This kid is good at everything, but he is almost 20 years old, but he still has no one he likes."
Ferdinand seems to be confident.
George glared at Ferdinand without saying a word.
"Either marry Alex to Kaka, or use 4 heavy artillery battleships as a betrothal gift, you have it up to you!"
Ferdinand had a hard time seeing.
“Ha——”
George sneered, it’s not dark yet, and he’s already dreaming!
