Chapter 464: Conversation Between the Countesses 2
"His Royal Highness the Prince said that he was not optimistic about Russia, and there were many specific reasons, and he said it, but I didn't understand it. He also said that many people will die on both sides www.biquge.info of the war this time, especially the cavalry and front-line infantry. But at the same time, the prince also stressed that he should not think that Russia would collapse in this war, because Russia's potential was still great, and Britain and France would not allow Russia to collapse. Laura said.
"It seems that I will have to wait a long time, but it doesn't matter, I have been waiting for more than 20 years and I don't care about waiting for a longer flight." A look of regret flashed across Atelina's face, but she quickly recovered.
"So what do you need this time?" Laura asked.
"More semi-automatic rifles, pistols, and machine guns. The number of semi-automatic rifles and pistols should be at least doubled, and in the case of machine guns, there are currently more than 20 intended orders. as well as medicines and first aid kits. The first aid kits made in Bavaria were very good and very popular with the Cossacks. β
"Also, the various cans exported by Bavaria are very good, and the Cossacks directly use them as military rations, and if I can, I hope to get equipment and technology from Bavaria and open a canning factory, so that the cost will be very small, and of course, the profit that should be handed over will not be less at all."
"Thirdly, I need a sum of money, and more professionals, His Highness Ruprecht said that Russia will fail, and this defeat will definitely lead to very serious turmoil, and every turmoil is accompanied by many opportunities, and I need to prepare in advance." Atelina thought for a moment and said.
"Your ambitions are too great, even if even I can sense your plans, I don't think His Royal Highness the Prince will support you." A drop of cold sweat dripped down Laura's head. On the surface, the countess was simply trying to use the power of Bavaria to expand her influence, but in reality, it was far from simple, and if Russia collapsed, and at the same time Ruprecht was the commander-in-chief of the German Eastern Front, then the relationship between the two was very delicate.
"You're not a prince, so how can you know his decision? You just need to convey it, and as for the rest, someone else will naturally do it. Atelina wasn't angry, and there was still a smile on her beautiful face.
"Princess Mary's strength stems from the Austro-Crèche behind her, but His Royal Highness the Prince needs more than just an Austro-Hungarian, he also needs Ukraine, and it is impossible for Germany to directly control Ukraine, so it is naturally necessary to support an absolutely trustworthy agent. From this point of view, my interests with the prince and Princess Mary are on the same page, and I can only rely on the support of the Kingdom of Bavaria, and I am now one of the Kingdom's best partners. Atelina said thoughtfully.
"And then add a reason never to betray?" A hint of sarcasm appeared on Laura's lips.
"It's up to you to understand it. I will be measured, and I know Princess Mary's bottom line. I won't touch this bottom line, as for other aspects, in some cases, the princess will make a choice, in fact, we are in a very similar situation, if we are not careful, we may be doomed, we seem to be in a high position, but in fact we are walking on thin ice. If we want to gain more benefits from this change, then there must be an alliance leader and a strong alliance of interests. Atelina enlightened the latter like a teacher.
"Actually, don't say something you haven't thought about. Even if you haven't thought about it, your clan certainly has! Otherwise, you would have been called Madame by now. β
"Aren't you afraid that I will tell the princess everything today?" Laura said with a calm face.
"Whatever, this is Bavaria, not Austria. And I believe that you will not do this, you have paid so much, there is no return, you are a businessman, how can you make a loss-making business? Atelina said indifferently. Maybe one day, you'll thank me. β
"Hehe, you're thinking too far. I hope you're not so confident, though. Laura said with a strange expression. However, at this time, Laura was no longer interested in continuing to intrigue with Countess Atelina here, there were many things that she could not decide, and even hearing some of them would be a great trouble.
"If nothing else, then take your leave." After Laura's words, she left the house without waiting for the other party to say anything.
"Walking on thin ice, there will be no return." Countess Laura kept repeating the words that Atelina had said, and similar words appeared in Princess Mary's mouth. This means that one day in the future, the seemingly high nobility will fall into the mortal world, and the whole society will be plunged into turmoil, as it was in 1848.
If it was someone else's words, Count Laura would not believe it, but after coming into contact with Prince Ruprecht and Princess Mary, she is gradually believing that this seemingly stable society will have a great upheaval in the near future, and she may face an endless abyss, or it may be an opportunity to soar to the sky! The prince and princess are preparing for this upheaval, and today, the countess of Ukraine, who is also actively responding to this crisis, cannot afford not to take these things seriously!
"It seems that I am the stupidest person." Laura smiled wryly.
"You've told the countess everything?" Meanwhile, at the residence of Countess Atelina, an old man asked.
"Yes, uncle, but I'm still worried that this will cause some unnecessary trouble, after all, we are thinking too far away, and it may cause a certain princess to be dissatisfied." The countess, who was full of aura in front of Laura, was still a little scared when facing this old man.
"Everything we do is in the eyes of that prince, we have only one master, the prince and not her wife, and even if one day, her wife becomes the queen of Austria, this will not change, and I can come here and see you again because of him. He has always regarded Russia as an enemy, and he prepared it a long time ago. β
When the old man said this, his writhing muscles drove the wound on his face that extended to his neck, and the wound on his neck was like a baby's mouth, and if it was a few millimeters deeper, it was his trachea!
"This is an opportunity, seize it, consume our potential opponents, develop the power in our hands, and in the near future, everything will be known! If Russia loses the contest with Japan this time, then Germany will not give Russia time to recover! And our shame will be washed away with the blood of our enemies! The old man said firmly.
