The so-called empty glove white wolf, in fact, this is a compliment, using other people's wealth to create zào wealth for themselves, which is the table of maximizing investment returns. The table xiàn shows the resourcefulness of the operator, which should be a role model respected by everyone!

As the saying goes, soldiers are not tired of deceit, and it is inevitable to deceive me on the battlefield of diplomatic negotiations, but the British are not fools, and it is obviously impossible to cheat Nigeria with a blank slate, so Germany can not take out enough exchange chips at this time, so it has to play a trick of deception. However, even if it is a lie, it must be both true and false, and once it is real, the British cannot bear it, so even the British, who may be fake, have to accept it. The bait used to trick the British into taking the bait was Uganda.

At this time, Germany's development in East Africa was not smooth, whether it was planting or animal husbandry, it was not very easy to develop, so Germany has not expanded inland, and the coast is like this. But no entry does not mean that you can't enter, since the discovery of a large number of mineral resources around Lake Victoria, the Germans have been full of interest in this area, with Lake Victoria as the center to radiate around to find more minerals is the main work of the German colonists now, and the north of Lake Victoria is Uganda.

So in the negotiations the next day, Bismarck threw the bait of Uganda. Different times, same places, same people. Salisbury and Bismarck have started another new round of encounters.

"Your Excellency, I wonder if you have communicated with His Majesty Frederick III? I hope that your country can come up with a somewhat constructive proposal, but if you continue to insist on the insincere request that we made today, it will be very difficult for us to make any progress today. Salisbury got straight to the point, and if the Germans were still so open-mouthed, he would not want to waste time here with Bismarck, an old stubborn.

"Indeed, I have had some discussions with His Majesty, and we are willing to believe in the sincerity of your country, since your country believes that the three regions of Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia are huge in size, and the terms of exchange that we have come up with are not reciprocal enough, then in order to show our sincerity and friendship, we are willing to add another area for exchange." Bismarck replied slowly.

"Oh? What else would your country be willing to give in exchange? Salisbury wondered if the Germans were willing to take Cameroon out. Even Cameroon is not worth facing the British Empire with the Zambezi River being seized by the Germans and Central Africa being cut off.

"We are willing to give Uganda in exchange. I think this place must be of great value to your country. ”

Uganda? Salisbury immediately became angry: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, are you joking with me? Uganda is not your German colony! This is the area of the British Empire! What does it mean that Your Excellency Prime Minister is exchanging our colonies?! ”

In the face of Salisbury's questioning, Bismarck said lightly: "Your colony? How did I not know? Your country's plans in Uganda have been very difficult because of the obstruction of the Kingdom of Bunioro, right? And the Kingdom of Buganda is also dissatisfied with your country's expansion, right? These are independent kingdoms, how can they be said to be colonies of your country? ”

Seeing Bismarck's exposure of the British old bottom, Salisbury no longer maintained his face, and communicated with foreign countries. "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your concern, but it has nothing to do with your country, which is the sphere of influence of the British Empire, and we will soon make heavy progress." It would be wishful thinking for Germany to use it as a bargaining chip. "The territory that has not yet been defeated is said to be their sphere of influence, and the Ugandan people have not yet expressed their position. Hawkers, in fact, colonialists are all virtuous, and the territory they fancy naturally has to be drawn into their own bowls, but there are not many red fruits like the British.

In the face of Salisbury's accusation, Bismarck smiled slightly, with a look of victory in hand, and gently threw out the last weight: "Is that so?" Unfortunately, what I know is a bit different from your country. Our expedition departed from Vitu and entered Uganda through the Kenyan highlands, where we had a great time with His Majesty Mwanga, King of Buganda. His Majesty the King also expressed his willingness to sign a treaty of protection with our country. I'm afraid that your country's so-called heavy progress is not true, right? ”

This is Jochen's trickery, the Germans did enter Uganda, but the signing of a contract with the Kingdom of Buganda or anything is purely false. Historically, Buganda signed a contract with Germany, and after 1890, in the face of British invasion, he had to seek German protection. The Germans, after getting the Buganda treaty, turned around and reached an agreement with the British to sell Buganda and return Chergoland to Golgoland at the expense of Buganda and other East African interests. Now, Jochen had no interest in Uganda at all, and the British were met with full resistance from the Ugandan people after the invasion of Uganda, and the resistance of many Ugandan kingdoms such as Buganda, Bunioro, and Ankole continued until 1899, and the Germans did not have the energy to spend it. Therefore, the so-called "everyone talks and has a good time, and Germany and Buganda want to promote each other, get along amicably, and sign a treaty" is purely illusory. However, it is a false thing for the Germans, and a big trouble for the British, so even if it is fake, the British have to listen to it as if it is true.

Although it is a lie, it is naturally of great significance for Bismarck, the iron-blooded prime minister, to say it. Salisbury looked at Bismarck, who was in the presence of the old god, and had a big headache. If this is true, it means that there will be a conflict between Britain and Germany in the interior of Central Africa. The situation in the United Kingdom is not optimistic, given that all the kingdoms of Uganda are hostile to the United Kingdom. And the Germans turned their faces? When Germany, their biggest enemy on the mainland, and Britain, their biggest competitor in overseas colonies, pinch each other, the French are probably going crazy with joy. Moreover, the Kaiser's family is in the United Kingdom, Frederick III is the favorite son-in-law of Her Majesty, Queen Victoria is the eldest daughter of the Queen, and Crown Prince Joachim, the Queen's favorite grandson, came to visit the Queen with his new wife. It's not the right time to tear your face with the Germans at this time.

However, since Bismarck has taken it out and said it, it means that everyone still has something to talk about, and Salisbury does not want to say anything about the meaninglessness of Germany's infringement of British interests, and the Germans will not bird you. Let's talk directly: "So what does your government want to do?" ”

"We are willing to give up the opportunity to sign a treaty with Buganda, to recognize British sovereignty over Uganda, to support British interests in Uganda and, if necessary, to support British action in Uganda; Surrender of Vitu, Southern Somalia, Togoland, Zanzibar and German New Guinea in the Pacific to the British, agreeing to relinquish sovereignty over Samoa. In exchange for Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia. This is the greatest sincerity of our country. Bismarck half-truthfully said that in fact, German New Guinea was not included in the scope of exchange, and that the Pacific islands of New Guinea were barren land in the eyes of Europeans at this time, and had no value at all.

"This is not possible, Uganda alone is not enough for my country to cede Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia, and the exchange is not reciprocal. As for New Guinea, your country took it out because its Far Eastern Fleet simply did not have the strength to maintain it in the Pacific, so it was not needed at all, right? Salisbury sarcastically.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister really thinks so? His Majesty Mwanga has invited us to build a dam, and I don't think your country will care. Bismarck continued to talk nonsense with his eyes open.

Salisbury hated it in his heart, the Germans absolutely meant that the dam was built on the Nile, so that the Nile would be cut off directly, and Egypt, which used the Nile as its lifeline, would be seriously threatened, and this kind of thing was absolutely not allowed. Salisbury said: "Of course, Britain will not care about such a trivial matter as building a dam, but after this dam is repaired, it may be difficult for His Majesty Mwanga to manage, so your country should not waste its efforts." If your country still insists on exchanging Botswana, Zimbabwe and Zambia for just a few areas, then we should not waste our time. ”

"Since your country insists so much that exchange is not equal, then we should each take a step back. Uganda, Vitu, Togoland and South Somalia will be handed over to your country, so that your country's north-east Africa can be connected, and Rwanda, Burundi and the Tanganyika and Congo border areas can be divided into a narrow area for your country. Togoland could be incorporated into your country's control zone in West Africa. Samoa is the same, we give up sovereignty, but not to your country, but to demand that Samoa must be independent. Since your country insists on not being willing to exchange Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia, and our East and South Africa cannot be connected, then we need a region that can be connected to the existing colonies, and South Africa is what we want from your country and will not give, what about Nigeria? It borders Cameroon on the border. The region of your country in New Guinea has also been transferred to my country in exchange. Tanganyika is difficult to develop because it cannot be connected to Namibia, so we hope to get the coastal area of Tanganyika, and in order to accelerate the development of Namibia, we hope to get the Walvis Bay area (Walvis Bay). What do you think? Your Excellency Prime Minister, please pick one of these two plans. If that doesn't work, then we'll talk about Africa and Samoa later. Bismarck had only now thrown out Germany's true purpose.

"This is indeed much fairer than the previous exchange, and we are very willing to believe in the sincerity of your country. However, Prime Minister, please allow us to discuss whether or not we can sign an agreement in this way. But Your Excellency, do you really want to go back to Helgoland? Salisbury asked reluctantly.

"We are only interested in areas that can generate economic benefits. Helgoland, it's better for your country to keep it for yourself. ”
