The world is really crazy!

Louis was stunned, sighed and said, "It seems that what my uncle said is right!" After this oriental lion awakened, it really made the whole world fearful! In any case, we in France will continue to make peace with the Chinese Empire. ”

Louis said this, and the discomfort in his heart was relieved a lot, and he breathed a long sigh of relief. It was only at this time that he felt a pang of fear in his heart.

When Britain first began to launch the Second Expeditionary Force against China, after learning the scale of the British Expeditionary Force, he believed that the Chinese Empire would have to suffer some hardships this time, although with the national strength of the Chinese Empire, it was unlikely that the British army would completely defeat or even capture the mainland of the Chinese Empire, but it was still very possible to recover India and even recapture the East Indies.

Therefore, his original intention was to reap the benefits of the fisherman without helping each other. Even, because he faintly felt the threat of the newly rising Chinese Empire, he was also ready to help Britain a little, waiting for Britain to negotiate conditions, as long as the conditions were favorable, he would tear up the friendly cooperation agreement with the Chinese Empire, and send troops to attack India together, hoping to seize some interests in India and even the East Indies, after all, the French Empire in its uncle's era, after losing its colonies in North America and India one after another, the overseas colonies have shrunk much, which is inconsistent with France's current status as a great power.

And, now think about it, what embarrassed Louis the most was that as soon as Britain sent troops, he couldn't wait for Duke Valewski to meet the envoy surnamed Guo, asking for an equal division of India, and the Indian colonies that belonged to the French Empire more than a hundred years ago - the southeastern and central eastern regions of India, Madras, Pondicherry, Yanam, Mahe, Garrigalne and other places were all returned to the French Empire, otherwise, he threatened to follow the British to send troops to attack the Chinese Empire.

But what I didn't expect was that perhaps the British thought that their expeditionary force would definitely defeat the Eastern Empire, and in order to seize the interests of India and the East Indies alone, they only combined a small number of Dutch navies and secretly sent troops, and did not come to win over France at all.

And the envoy surnamed Guo, after receiving Walewsky's message, under the pretext that he needed to report to the emperor at home, kept delaying without any reply.

It is precisely because of this that Louis did not send troops to follow the expedition, but only kept waiting for the time being, preparing to wait for the most intense war between the two sides, waiting for Britain to come to the central government to ask for troops or the Chinese Empire to come to the central government to ask for troops, and then open up the conditions.

But what I didn't expect was that not long after the British army was dispatched, only a short time later, the result of the battle came out, and it was not only surprising, but also terrified - afraid of the huge strength of the rapidly expanding Eastern Empire.

Thinking of this, Louis felt a little afraid. He now somewhat understood why his cronies and ministers were afraid of being enemies of the Chinese Empire, and since the appearance of that demonic emperor Feng Yunshan in this country, it was really impossible to guess with common sense. It is also fortunate that the French Empire did not send troops, otherwise, it is likely that the army sent by it would have been completely wiped out by now.

Louis gloated, and shuddered, this Chinese empire is really growing too fast, too terrifying!

Thinking of this, Louis's face had become wonderful, he remembered something, and hurriedly said to the Foreign Minister Baron Osman: "Osman, you quickly send someone to send a letter from me to Feng Yunshan, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, to congratulate them on defeating the British invasion and winning the Bengal campaign!" By the way, Valewski, you should hurry up and invite the special envoy of the Chinese Empire to Europe named Guo to the palace, and explain to him the request we had made in a joke. In addition, I would like to meet him personally and express France's apologies to him in person. At the same time, I would like to ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Chinese Empire to further strengthen cooperation through him, and if possible, we can strengthen more cooperation in the Americas, India, and even West Asia and Africa, and jointly develop the world! ”

Minister of State Valevsky repeatedly praised: "Your Majesty is wise! Under the wise leadership of His Majesty, we in France will surely continue to maintain the momentum of development and become the number one power in Europe! ”

Louis was upset for no reason, he naturally understood what Valevsky meant, France could only become a European power, not the number one world power. And the position of the world's number one power is no longer considered to be the Chinese Empire without the slightest doubt!

The Minister of War, Duke Percini, also praised: "Your Majesty's move is really holy! Your Majesty, that Prussia is now slowly rising and developing its military with great ambition, and I suspect that they are prepared to wage a dynastic war for the unification of Germany, as Italy did. They had always been on good terms with Tsarist Russia, and later became friendly with the Chinese Empire, while at the same time maintaining an ambiguous relationship with the British. This country relied on the sale of weapons and the export of talents to the Chinese Empire in exchange for huge sums of money, and with the help of the exchange of trade goods of the Chinese Empire with European countries, obtained a large amount of resources to vigorously develop the military industry, and now the national strength is becoming stronger step by step.

They have now defeated Denmark and occupied and annexed the region of Schleswig, and, I have heard, the new King of Prussia, having listened to the policy of the powerful Prussian Kingdom of Otto von Bismarck, has greatly appreciated him and appointed him Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Prussia, having previously been transferred to Paris to serve as Prussian Ambassador to the French Empire.

This Bismarck is extremely ambitious, very capable, ruthless and iron-blooded, he is a Prussian hardliner, and he is in charge of Prussia, I am afraid that it will make Prussia even stronger and become a strong opponent of our France!

Moreover, Your Majesty, our War Office heard the news that as soon as Bismarck came to power, he began to think of ways to destroy relations between the Kingdom of Prussia and Austria, and began to plan to take advantage of the opportunity of the British army to send troops to the Far East to start a war against Austria, and now as soon as the news of the defeat of the British army came back, it is likely that they would officially declare war.

Whether it is Prussia or Austria, the victorious powers will unify the entire German Confederation, and in this way, the German nation will rise to become our main rival in France. Therefore, we must try to prevent the dynastic war between Prussia and Austria, and we must stabilize Europe.

And to stabilize Europe, the only way to do this is to befriend the Chinese Empire in the East. ”

Louis didn't expect that the current Eastern Empire would have such influence and directly affect Europe.

He nodded, and reluctantly said to the Minister of State, Walewski, and the Foreign Minister Osman: "To make every effort to make friends with the Chinese Empire, the focus of France is to deal with the victors of Prussia and Austria. ”
