"The reaction of the Germans was very muted, they only made some protests in the newspapers, and the military power in Namibia has not changed much. I don't know what His Highness Carlos I is worried about. "The Speaker of the French Parliament, Charles. Dupiy asked, a little puzzled.

"This is not normal, even in the more modest time of Frederick III, the Germans fought back resolutely against any country that dared to offend them! The Battle of Toshima is an example of this, in which the German fleet easily defeated the Japanese and destroyed two warships. ”

And now, Wilhelm II, known as the German Peacock, has come to power, and his foreign policy has become more aggressive, and the rate of naval expansion has increased significantly. They shouldn't be patient with this kind of thing! Portuguese envoy Frank said with some concern.

"No, you don't understand Germany, the target of our operation this time is the Kingdom of Bavaria, not Germany! Don't confuse the two concepts, the former is just a state within Germany, what power can a vassal state with an area of just over 80,000 square kilometers have? ”

"Perhaps the German government will be outraged by this, but it will never fail to act aggressively, and the German central government, or indeed the Prussian government, will not wage a war thousands of miles away for the sake of a little brother who has professed Catholicism, and if there is no war, then what do you have to fear?" Speaker Charles said as he leisurely lit a cigar from Havana.

If Prince Ruprecht knew about the conversation between the two sides, he would probably drop his jaw! He couldn't have imagined that the reason behind the incident of the Yarrow was that the French wanted to deal with him! Well, perhaps dealing with Bavaria is only one aspect. What I didn't expect was that when I was about to clean up Portugal, Portugal took the initiative to come to the door with its boss!

Is it necessary for the French to go past with a kingdom? Historically completely unnecessary, it can be said that there was hardly any intersection except that the Bavarians and the French fought twice on the battlefield, but this plane is different, because of the relationship of Prince Ruprecht, Bavaria has managed to steal more than 10 million pounds of business from the French! £10 million! What is this concept? That's about 200 million marks and 250 million francs!

"The francs we lent to Moscow ended up going all the way to the pockets of the Bavarians, and the development of Bavaria was entirely dependent on our francs! This is absolutely not allowed! Speaker Charles recalled a few months ago, when the French Foreign Minister was confronted with his heartache.

France regards Russia's finances as their own territory, and the French will not allow any country or individual to try to get a piece of the pie! If the Russians ordered two Munich-class armored cruisers from Germany back then and touched the bottom line of the French, then the subsequent breach of the treaty was the first counterattack of the French, and the French won a temporary victory, but then a series of events made this French counterattack a laughing stock!

The Russian fleet was easily defeated in the Philippines by the Japanese fleet equipped with German warships, and the direct consequence of this incident was that Russia once again found Bavaria and asked for an order of at least 3 ships that could suppress the existence of Izumo, which was an order of millions of pounds! This money that originally came from France, and which should eventually have been used to buy French weapons, flowed into the prince's pockets, and it was strange that the French could bear it!

For a big country, especially a big country that thinks highly of itself, what should be done when it encounters setbacks? Naturally, I am looking for a chance to get back on the field! Ever since the Russians decided to purchase German battleships once again and named the lead ship Rurik 2, the French, who gritted their teeth with hatred, did not want to take revenge on their opponents at any time.

It's a pity that this time, the Russians won't listen to the French when they die, on the one hand, the results of the Philippine naval battle are still vivid, and the lessons from the past are still vivid! And on the other hand, the financial weapons of the French are no longer so deadly! Because the Americans took advantage of this US-Russian cooperation to successfully enter the Russian financial market, in addition to the French, the Russians found another financier!

As a result, the French immediately found it difficult to take revenge on this "thief who plundered the wealth of France"! However, the French would never give in so easily, and they set their sights on the whole world, searching for all clues related to the Kingdom of Bavaria.

Bavaria and the Russians had good relations, but the French couldn't help it. Bavaria is very close to the Americans, who are also competing with France for the Russian financial markets, well, taking measures against the United States, but with little impact on Bavaria, and there is nothing to be done.

And eventually, in an inconspicuous corner of the world, the French suddenly discovered that the most lucrative business in the German colonies - diamond mining was contracted by the Kingdom of Bavaria! Of course, the French government had little idea about this place, which was located in the territory of the German colony. However, there are still some troubles in other aspects.

For example, manpower, Namibia is short of people, the prince's diamond mine is even more short of people, a lot of manpower is imported from South Africa and Angola, the former is now in the middle of the war, the British government with human resources is stretched thin, naturally will not continue to allow human resources to enter Namibia, then now Bavaria's diamond mines can only rely on Angolan manpower, this is a very good entry point!

And Portugal is also a good partner to work with, why? Because this dude is too weak! The French government just scared it and let Portugal obediently cooperate with its own actions, of course, the Portuguese also have a lot of opinions about the "illegal labor import" carried out by the prince, the two sides hit it off, Portugal is in front, and the French government is the hidden boss in the back!

And one of the fundamental reasons for Portugal's submission is that the gentleman is innocent and drunk, a small country that is not a third-rate, actually has more than 2 million square kilometers of colonies, in this world where the great powers are rampant, Portugal is also terrified, as early as 1891, the British used naval guns to force Portugal to reduce the garrison in Angola and Mozambique (this is a historical fact).

And now, when France, a world-class power, said, do what I say, I will cover you for Africa's affairs, not to mention how much France can deliver in the end, but at least this statement is enough for the Portuguese to offend Bavaria, and in Portugal's view, Bavaria is just a state no matter how fierce it is!
