Some of the talks looked formal, but they couldn't say anything, and some of the talks, which didn't look so formal, but they solved the problem, and this time, two crown princes, a prince and a former commander of the Russian Pacific Fleet, four people occupied the entire fleet commander's meeting room, and they obviously belonged to the latter in this small meeting, although it was not so formal, but it could decide a lot of things!

After all, the Russian crown prince is visiting on behalf of Russia, and the German crown prince is the representative of the German imperial family, although the latter does not represent the government, but all the content can be passed to the Kaiser through him! As for the traverser? How to say, in the eyes of Crown Prince William, he is still the initiator! After all, this matter was only brought out by the Kaiser after he saw this letter! The traverser was accidentally shot!

As for Popov? Although he has the sign of an admiral and the former commander of the Far East Fleet, this brand is the most worthless in front of the other three, 2 future emperors and 1 future king, you don't know where it is higher! There are only two reasons why this guy can sit!

First, this guy has served as a commander in the Far East, led troops, understands the basic situation in the Far East, and can provide data and reference opinions. Second, in order to make the Russian crown prince feel more comfortable, I made a 2V2. Facing his cousin and another prince alone makes Nikolai weird uncomfortable!

The Japanese are hateful and hateful! It's a robber! It is a vain attempt to subvert the situation in the Far East, which will cause the interests of Russia and Germany to suffer! This is basically the consensus of the Russians. William also hated the Japanese from an ethnographic point of view. Not to mention the traverser, whether from the perspective of Germany or from the perspective of a ** person, Japan must die!

After the Japanese have analyzed it, it is now necessary to analyze what will happen if Japan takes action against the Qing Dynasty. For this question, the traveler naturally knows that Japan won the war against the decaying Qing Dynasty, and then signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki, which obtained reparations, territory and various economic benefits, and then the three countries intervened to return Liao, which then led to a frenzy of the Great Powers to carve up the Qing State. I've memorized this stuff several times in junior high and high school history. I still remember the contents of the Treaty of Shimonoseki!

"Qing Guo can't defeat Japan, if you want me to analyze it specifically, then I'm afraid it will take three days and three nights, but if it's just a qualitative analysis, I think my judgment is absolutely correct." When Nicholas II mentioned what would happen if the Nissin War began, the time-traveler said very dryly.

This result was somewhat unexpected by William, although he did not speak, but the slight frown made people see his doubts and puzzlement.

"I agree with His Royal Highness the Prince, how can a dying empire be an adversary to a nascent modern state? Although the Qing State is large, it can only fight in the Beiyang, while Japan is small, after all, it is a country armed with a modern system and a brand-new ideology, and there is no suspense in this war. Admiral Popov said.

"If that's the case, it's a troublesome question." Nicholas II said. After all, the Russians still know very well what kind of virtue the Qing State is, the three treaties and a little bit of force intimidation made the Qing State obediently cede 1.5 million square kilometers of land, if it weren't for Zuo Zongtang leading troops into Xinjiang to regain some face for this decadent country, I am afraid that the situation in the Qing State is even worse than now!

The weakening and decay of the Qing country is good for Russia, and Russia wants to tear off a few more pieces of meat from this rotten country! But the timing is not good! Russia's power in the Far East is too thin, and if Japan strikes first, how will Russia be willing? Moreover, from this visit to Nicholas II, it can be seen that the whole country of Japan is preparing to start a war. If Japan gets a slice of the pie before Russia, how can Russia bear it?

"We should unite and even use force if necessary to resolve this potential crisis. It's good for all of us. The Russian crown prince said.

"Russia wants to take the northeastern region of the Qing Kingdom into its pocket, but what do we have to gain from the German Empire? You border the Qing Kingdom, and we are thousands of miles apart. Even if a colony is obtained, it cannot be effectively controlled, and the population of the Qing State is large, which is completely different from Africa. ”

"More importantly, we currently maintain good political and economic relations with the Qing government, and we now have an annual trade volume of more than 50 million marks." The traverser gestured to Wilhelm II and then said.

Japan is not a good thing, Russia is not a good thing either, and like Japan, Russia is an enemy, both from the perspective of the present and from the perspective of the previous life. Everyone can sit together now but use each other. Since Russia wants Germany to help, then it must come up with reciprocal benefits!

The crown princes of the two countries are cousins in the negotiations, and William naturally can't be this villain, he wants to play a white face, so as another German in the negotiation team, Prince Ruprecht naturally has to assume the role of a villain, but this role also has an appearance fee, and the Russians don't give some benefits, and the traverser won't let go here!

"In the Northeast, your country will enjoy the same rights as us, and we can talk about opening mines, setting up factories, settling down, and so on, and at the same time, we will buy a large amount of arms from your country." The Russian crown prince also understands this reason, but the conditions of the Germans are also acceptable, after all, in the eyes of Nicholas II, Germany can only engage in a lease in the Qing State at most, and then get some economic benefits, and still want to directly enclose the land?

"The specific exchange of interests is not something we can decide, but I do have a low-cost and high-efficiency way to curb Japan's development relatively easily!" The traverser pondered for a moment before saying.

"Do you mean to strengthen the military power of Beiyang? And even at some point to participate in this war in the name of volunteers? William thought for a moment and said.

"That's one thing, but at the level of the Qing country, it's hard to defeat the opponent even with assistance. In fact, in addition to containing the opponent on the battlefield, we can also curb Japan's development after the end of the war, and we can completely demand that Japan give up the cession of land in the name of ensuring the territorial integrity of the Qing State. and cut war reparations. As long as Japan does not benefit from the war, it will not develop quickly! The traverser said.

Isn't it just the intervention of the three kingdoms in history? Wouldn't it be enough to just move such a successful case of gunboat diplomacy over and use it? Japan, which had just finished the First Sino-Japanese War, still had the ability to start a war with the Three Kingdoms? Not to mention Japan, the British are weak when they see the united three countries of Russia, Germany and France!

"This is a solution, after the outbreak of war, I will try to persuade my father to increase the strength of the Far East Fleet." Crown Prince William agreed. Of course, this is just a rhetorical statement.

"Cheers to the better cooperation between our two countries in the future!" The purpose of the first stage of the two sides has been achieved, although some binding treaties have not been signed, but the proximity of Germany and Russia on the Far East issue has become a foregone conclusion, and the Russians even privately said that they could pull France together to do it, the German side did not express any objections, the reason is very simple, Germany and France are generally hostile, there is also cooperation, and Prime Minister Bismarck once obtained German East Africa with the help of French power!
