2010 Arrogant self-confidence

Listening to the Empress's words, Napoleon III suddenly burst into a smile from his heart, "Hahaha...... Hahaha...... It's the funniest joke I've ever heard!"

Perhaps it was the medicinal effects of absinthe that flare up again, and Napoleon III's laughter was incomparably mad.

"In my eyes, the only one who can compete with France is England, what kind of opponent is Prussia? He is just lucky to win two battles, Denmark's strength is not worth mentioning, and even Austria is only my defeat!"

Napoleon III certainly had the capital to be proud of, and it was not unusual for Denmark to lose to Prussia as a small European country, and even Austria, which had a deep background, was only a defeat under France.

At the same time as the Anglo-French invasion of the Qing Dynasty, Napoleon III personally led a large army into Italy, and cleaned up the disobedient state ** team and the Austrian army.

In the end, the Austrian Emperor could only sign a contract in disgrace, and even if Prussia defeated such an opponent, what was the big deal.

"My dear wife, please remember that there is only one threat from France, and that is Britain, and any other country is only a small player, and cannot become a big ......."

Eugenie looked at her husband, who had an exaggerated expression and a crazy smile, and a sense of worry came to her heart: "My dear Louie...... I think you are underestimating Prussia, I have just returned from the German mineral city of Schwabach, and this visit to the German Confederation has touched me deeply......"

"The whole of Prussia is now a big barracks, a big construction site...... New railways, roads are being extended every day, and factories are being built on almost all the outskirts of the city......"

"The reservist barracks are full of training trumpets, and the whole Prussian merchant is mobilizing and is procuring all sorts of military supplies throughout Europe!"

"Bismarck is preparing for war, the whole of Prussia is preparing for war, two consecutive victories have made Prussia's morale extremely high, even if the people are poor and only drink potato soup, they have no complaints, because they have a hope of victory in their hearts!"

"Not only Prussia, but also other German Confederations such as Hesse, Bavaria, Rhine...... In the German-speaking regions, the morale of the population was also stirred, and countless teachers, freelance writers, newspapers ...... I have clearly seen the remarks advocating the rise of the German nation, and you must be vigilant!"

It's a pity that Empress Eugenie's bitter words did not sober up the Emperor, he shook his head and said, "No, no, no, the loose confederation of Germany is destined to be nothing, what you see is only the appearance......"

"My wife, do you know that just three days ago the envoy of Bismarck came to me and brought me a message from Bismarck, this cunning fellow has a tough attitude on the surface, but you know what he said to me in private?"

"Bismarck said that as long as I, France, renounce our claim to the territory on the west bank of the Rhine, then they will give up their involvement in the Spanish throne, and they are willing to sign a treaty of friendship and peace with us......"

"My darling, I know Bismarck too well, and he is only trying to maintain his iron-blooded rule, for the successive conquests of Prussia have drained the wealth of the people, and their people are now extremely poor!"

"That's why he needs to use a tough illusion to feed the people for the spirit, so that they forget the delicacy of white bread for a while, and eat the unpalatable black bread......

"It's not surprising that these are all common tricks of rulers......"

Eugenie snorted coldly, "You think so, Franz Joseph thinks so, but what is the result? You haven't seen the end of the Austro-Prussian war, aren't you a little vigilant?"

"I heard that Xiao Letian came to Europe this time with two thousand elites, what do you guess he is going to do? Don't forget that all kinds of intelligence have confirmed that the Chinese and Prussia are already a paramilitary alliance!"

Speaking of Napoleon III, who had just fallen into a fanatical arrogance, Xiao Letian was confused again, to be honest, Napoleon III was not afraid of the strength of the Chinese, what he was afraid of was just the unknown.

Xiao Lotian made him unable to decipher, he couldn't understand everything this Oriental man did, and it was precisely because of this sense of mystery that he had a kind of worry and fear in his subconscious.

"Hmm...... There is some truth in what you say, but don't worry, France is not afraid of the challenge of Prussia, even if you add a Xiao Lotian!"

"My generals and staff have done many wargames, and each time the result is our French victory, whether there are two thousand reinforcements from Xiao Letian, the result is the same......"

Empress Eugenie sneered, "It's better to be a little more prepared, there will always be accidents in war...... Have you forgotten what happened to your uncle?"

The mention of Napoleon the Great, the world's civilization, the nephew who stole his uncle's fame, was silent at once, and the Battle of Waterloo was a long-standing pain for the family, and every mention of it was painful.

"Well, since you think so highly of these clowns, I have decided that if things go to war, I will leave Paris and go on a conquest!"

"My queen, when the time comes, you will sit in Paris and help me regent this empire!"

Eugenie pouted, "Looking for me, I don't have that much ability...... Go find your lovers, do you need me to give you them one by one?"

Napoleon III was suddenly embarrassed, he walked over and hugged his wife's shoulders and whispered, "My Montiru, don't be jealous, that's all my past, I don't have the heart to hunt for beauty at my age......"

"Besides, you are the queen of the empire, you are my wife, my beloved...... Why bother to be like those toys, they don't have political power!"

"Only you, my personal diplomat, are the splendor of my France!"

Women always like sweet talk, and although the couple has had a long cold war because of other women, they can still walk together and support each other at the most critical moment of the family.

After a short period of warmth, Eugenie was still a little uneasy, "My dear, I think the empire should still make further preparations, I don't mean that your self-confidence is not good, but in the face of the national war, all our caution, I think it is necessary!"

"Do you have any cards that are hidden deeper?" asked Eugenie carefully.

Napoleon III smiled "Of course, my queen, of course I have a deeper hole card, and that hole card is on the other side of the channel!"

"You may not believe it, but half a year ago I sent a special envoy to reach a private agreement with British Prime Minister Benjamin...... The British Prime Minister was extremely disgusted with Xiao Lotian and his Chinese ......"

"Do you know what it means to love the house and the U, because of this, he even dislikes Prussia, Xiao Letian's ally, so Britain is destined to lend a helping hand to us at a critical moment!"
