In the final analysis, Bismarck and Xiao Lotian are the same kind of people, and the so-called sympathy is nothing more than that, when Xiao Lotian said this bold remark, Bismarck's face became more and more solemn.

If you are an ordinary European or Qing countryman, after hearing Xiao Letian's slogan that there is not much nutrition, many people may feel chills all over their bodies, and think that he is very fake and sour.

Losing is losing, failure is defeat, now the French fleet is about to bomb the Ryukyus, you Xiao Lotian is powerless, this is all ironclad reality, just shouting slogans can fool people?

The majority of people hold this view, and judging heroes by their success or failure is actually a common problem of human beings. If it was before the Battle of Sadova, if it was before the Stone Bridge Miracle, if Bismarck had heard Xiao Letian's bold words, it is estimated that even he would not believe him.

But now it was different, Xiao Lotian and his men shocked everyone with their blood and lives, and their image in the eyes of the Prussians rose as straight as if they were making a hot air balloon.

It is precisely because he has won the respect of the other party, so Xiao Letian's bold words not only did not make people feel false and artificial, but made Bismarck sincerely admire.

"Shaw... I find that every time I see you, I have a different experience, you are a man who accompanies miracles, you are God's favorite, China is really lucky to have you...... Well, what do you need me to do? I'll do my best to accommodate your requests as long as it's within my means..."

Xiao Letian's heart was already happy when he heard this, he looked left and right to find that there was no one around, and then took Bismarck to the depths of the trench, and then began to speak.

"China has fallen a lot behind on the road to rise, and I can't become a fat man in one bite, what I need in addition to what I discussed before, I have a few other points to build ......"

Xiao Lotian has reached a preliminary cooperation intention with Bismarck, and Prussia will open all schools to provide education for Chinese students. Now the number of people under Wang Huaiyuan has exceeded 2,000, even if only half of them are manufacturable materials, there will be more than 1,000 highly educated talents in the future.

There are also battleships that make Xiao Letian's heart move, he is still very clear from later generations, don't look at the current German navy is very weak, but it can't stand the strong industrial strength of others, and when the ironclad battleships are rampant across the ocean, Germany's industrial base will gradually exert its strength.

Education, science and technology, and military equipment are in Xiao Letian's plan, but today Xiao Letian wants to go one step further and make the cooperation between the two sides closer.

"My dear Prime Minister, I wonder what you think of the relationship between Prussia and Great Britain? Hehe, of course I know that you are now pursuing a continental policy, and you have always been careful not to touch the maritime interests of the British, and it is your prudence that has brought Britain's neutrality ......"

"First of all, I would like to admit that your strategy is very correct, and that it would be unwise for Prussia to be at odds with England as it is still very weak, but I would like you to think carefully about how you can guarantee that your heir will continue your policy when Prussia has won a series of victories, and when you leave the prime ministership?"

Bismarck's eyes grew bigger and bigger, as if he were looking at a devil, and he really couldn't imagine that Xiao Lotian knew Prussia so deeply.

"Shaw... You sue me, are you a devil or not?"

Xiao Letian glanced at him and said, "In this world now, you should see it better than me, whoever controls the most colonies in his hands is the most powerful." And the old countries, such as Britain and France, have almost divided the world, and there is not much left for Prussia......"

"In the future, after you have taught France a lesson on land, it will be difficult for the European continent to find an opponent. At that time, if Prussia wanted to be rich and strong, it could only look to the sea, but then you would have to clash with the British......"

"Oooh oh...... Don't try to contradict me, I know that your strategy does not allow war with the British, but you will grow old one day, what kind of character is Prince Carr, and what about the Prince's son? You don't even think about it......"

In a word, the old prime minister subconsciously took half a step back, and suddenly hit the trench, his eyes widened, and Xiao Letian was really like looking at the devil.

Xiao Letian's words are actually the most fearful place in the old prime minister's heart, Bismarck knows very well the background of Britain, which is not something that Prussia can compete with at all, unless a world-level war is launched to pull Britain down from the first throne.

Even if Prussia punished the French according to its own plan, and even if North Germany succeeded in unifying itself in its own hands, that little strength against Britain would not be enough, far from enough.

So Bismarck had been explaining his strategy to the royal family, fearing that one day the fanatical royal family would abandon his strategic choice and compete with Britain on the sea.

This is not a pessimistic speculation, it is very likely to be true, because people are always easily carried away by victory, and it is difficult to control the desire of a nation to rise.

"No, no, no, that's impossible, you can look at the map, Britain is like a lid firmly blocking the access to the sea for Germany, Poland, and Russia, and the shipping lanes to the Atlantic Ocean are all under the artillery control of the British fleet, and the North Sea is the inland lake of the British..."

"I'm not 100% sure, and a naval battle with the British is looking for death..."

This was the first time Xiao Letian had seen Bismarck's panicked expression, which was rare in history, and he knew that he had hit the weakness of the iron-blooded prime minister's heart, and it was also the weakness of the Prussian nation.

"You know this truth, and I know it, but do the later people know? Or do they know, but do they want to know this sad truth?" Xiao Letian sighed and shook his head.

"It is foreseeable that the more smoothly Prussia fights now, the greater the ambitions of future generations. Prussia needed the nourishment of maritime interests, and it was inevitable to fight for colonies, and once it embarked on this road of hegemony, then conflict with the British was inevitable......"

"Just now you also mentioned the map, then I will tell you about the map, the British three roads are a cover, rigidly blocking the German shipping route to the Atlantic, even if you get a lot of overseas colonies, but how to transport resources......?

"The Prussians are proud, and this pride sustains you in fighting for your country, but this pride will also support you in an irrational battle, and then it will be a big gamble on the fortunes of the country..."

Xiao Letian was really a little possessed by Su Qin Zhangyi at this time, and he was moved, and he came to the prime minister and drew a simple world map on the soil with his fingers.

"Once there is a war and the British fleet is blockaded here in the North Sea, then the German overseas colonies will be completely devoid of reinforcements, and then the British Pacific Fleet, Indian Ocean Fleet or something will be able to slowly knock out your colonies one by one......"

"At that time, even if you have a good warship, it will be useless if you can't drive it... So, with 120,000 sincerity, I'm here today to talk to you about a top-secret plan, a plan that you can't refuse..."

"Come on, come on...... If you look here, it's my home base of Ryukyu. If Prussia is willing to cooperate with me, of course it will be secret, and it will be my own to declare it to the outside world, but we can sign the internal top-secret document jiàn......"

"How about we set up a large shipyard in Ryukyu with Prussian shipbuilding technology as the standard? Don't hide your secrets, send your best technology and the strongest engineers over, so that we can cooperate in the production of the best warships in the world, don't worry, I have a lot of drawings of mature ironclad warships in my head, how about we share these design concepts at that time?"

Xiao Lotian even stretched out his hand to hook up with Bismarck at this time, as intimate as a street gangster, "Don't worry, the battleship that will be launched at that time will be nominally my Xiao Lotian, but there is half of your Prussian shares...... You see, before you know it, you've laid an ambush in the Pacific Ocean with a mighty fleet..."

"Suppose that one day, when a world war breaks out, and the global powers are divided into two distinct factions to fight to the death, and Prussia reaches the point where it is impossible not to fight, and there is such a strange army in hand, will you have an extra chance of winning?"

Xiao Letian's suggestion may seem unrealistic, but it is undeniable that this is the best confrontation plan in the face of British maritime supremacy.

Xiao Letian was not without worries, if he ordered a powerful warship that exceeded this era at Volk Qiang Shipyard, how to transport it back to China was a problem.

Are they really going to watch China see a modern navy appear? The answer is no, as long as you threaten them, they will even detain the battleship halfway, or even sink it directly.

The only way is to build your own warships, to build your own large warships in East Asia, this is the only way out. Who made Xiao Letian's design in his stomach far ahead of this era, and he could shock the world by taking out any one.

Bismarck was really tempted, but he still had worries, and as a politician, it was their instinct to suspect that a qiē was their instinct. Don't look at what Xiao Letian said now, what if there is really a day when this kid changes his hexagram? But think about the blood they shed on the Stone Bridge Heights, Bismarck's question is a little indescribable.

"It's too big, it's not for me as a prime minister to call the shots, I have to talk to the king in secret, but I admit that your mention has moved me...... But I want to remind you that I believe in your credibility, but that doesn't mean that the entire Prussian hierarchy believes in you, and you'd better be prepared for both......"

Just as Xiao Lotian was about to open his mouth again to add fire, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps and shouts from outside the trench, "Prime Minister...... Prime Minister... Please hurry back to the headquarters at once, Your Majesty the King...... His Majesty and the Chief of the General Staff quarreled, and the quarrel was inexorable......"

"Huh?" Bismarck and Xiao Lotian shouted in unison when they heard the news, "How did this happen?
