Chapter 835: Humiliation
"Your Highness the Prince, Germany is the number one power in the world. Their navy, even the Royal Navy of the British Empire, was defeated by them. So, there is a huge gap between us and them, and this is inevitable! The Imperial Navy has begun to catch up, even if it can't surpass the German Navy, but it can still shorten the gap with them! After Kato Takaaki saw Crown Prince Hirohito's face, he knew what he was thinking, and hurriedly spoke comfortingly.
Hirohito nodded: "The Germans are indeed strong. But their enemies are not just the Empire. The Americans, the British plus us. After the Germans' navy was dispersed, there was nothing to worry about! ”
"What His Highness said is extremely true!" Takaaki Kato saw that Crown Prince Hirohito was not frightened, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. You know, these people also see Hirohito as the future expectation of the island nation!
The battleship "Fuso", guided by a guide ship, entered Wilhelmshaven.
Hirohito and Takaaki Kato walked down the gangway and came to the dock. However, to their embarrassment, the German side sent only a petty officer of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to meet them. This suddenly made Hirohito about to be blown up.
Hirohito was young, and he was already at the age of competitiveness. He thinks that as the crown prince of the island country, he has a noble status, and he has come all the way to participate in the military parade in Germany, which has already given Germany a great face. It stands to reason that Germany should also welcome him ceremoniously! However, he only sent a small person to receive him, which clearly did not take him into account, and did not take the island country in his eyes!
Kato Takaaki's face was also very unsightly, thinking that Germany was clearly slapping them in the face. The island nation had certainly lost to Germany in the previous war. However, they were not completely defeated. It's just that because the coastal cities were destroyed and they didn't want to fight anymore, they chose to compromise and retreat. The current island nation is still one of the great powers of today. The behavior of the Germans is simply humiliating them!
"Your Highness, bear with me! This is Germany. Takaaki Kato said.
Hirohito nodded helplessly, he knew that Germany's strength could not come from his temperament.
The delegation of the island nation was put on the train. Although Wilhelmshaven will hold a parade, it will first be held in Berlin, and then it will be held. So, delegations from all countries go to Berlin first, and then to Wilhelmshaven.
After getting on the train, Hirohito's dissatisfaction was vented.
"Damn, I'm the Imperial Prince, and the Germans should send someone of their kind to meet me!" Hirohito was furious.
"Your Highness, the German Crown Prince is only 4 years old!" Takaaki Kato said.
"What about the Kaiser's brother? There will always be, right? But they still didn't send anyone. This is clearly a humiliation of the Empire! Hirohito was furious. This contempt of Germany for the island nation was completely unacceptable to him.
"Your Highness, the Germans are indeed very unreasonable. However, for the sake of the Reich, we should not fall out with the Germans! Takaaki Kato reminded. The island nation is now in a period of full recovery. If Germany is provoked again, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Hirohito nodded, although he was young, he understood what Kato Takaaki meant. That is, let's write down these things for the time being, and when the strength of the island nation is restored, there will be opportunities to trouble the Germans.
When the train arrived in Berlin, the German Foreign Office still sent only ordinary officials to receive it. This made Crown Prince Hirohito and Kato Takaaki very dissatisfied. However, they don't say too much.
However, when arranging accommodation, the delegation of the island nation should have gone to the hotel arranged by the German Foreign Office. However, Crown Prince Hirohito offered to stay at the island country's embassy in Germany.
Apparently, Hirohito's child had a heart attack. Kato Takaaki persuaded him, but Crown Prince Hirohito was very stubborn. There was no way, Kato Takaaki had to communicate with German diplomats. Eventually, the German Foreign Office agreed to allow the delegation to stay at the embassy of the island country.
German Foreign Minister Vasit specifically reported the matter to Emperor Qin Tian on this matter.
"Humph! That little kid seems to have a bit of a personality! Who does he think he is, though? Dare to be so presumptuous in the Empire? Qin Tian said coldly.
Of course, Hirohito is still a teenager, and if a person as old as Qin Tian is entangled with him, it will be too much. However, Qin Tian has never had a good impression of the people of the island country. Especially this guy Hirohito, who is a great sin in another time and space. If it weren't for the help of the Americans, he would have been court-martialed a long time ago. In this time and space, of course, Qin Tian would not let him be so arrogant anymore.
"Your Majesty, are we going to teach those island people a lesson?" Vahit asked.
Vahit knew very well that Qin Tian did not have a good impression of the island country, so the Ministry of Foreign Affairs belittled the delegation of the island country, and he did it on purpose. Originally, he thought that the people of the island country would choose to settle the matter. But I didn't expect that they would dare to fight back. You know, in Washit's eyes, the island nation is nothing more than a defeated country. If it weren't for the fact that they were so far away from Germany, Germany would have sent troops to destroy them.
"Postpone my meeting with the delegation of the island nation until the end!" Qin Tian said.
According to the plan, Qin Tian would receive delegations from other countries, and as for the order of the reception, they were often arranged according to the strength of the country and the relationship with Germany. The current island country is still one of the great powers in the world. In order, it should be at the top. However, with Qin Tian's words, he directly put the island country last.
Hirohito and Kato Takaaki have been staying in the embassy, waiting for Qin Tian's summons. But they waited left and right, and they were not summoned for a long time. Even the other effects were summoned, but they were still gone, which suddenly made Hirohito and Kato Takaaki a little unable to sit still.
If Qin Tian refuses to summon the delegation of the island nation before this military parade, then this will be a big problem. This is undoubtedly tantamount to an unmistakable announcement to the whole world that Qin Tian hates the island country very much. In this case, many countries will surely take this opportunity to fall into the trap. At that time, the situation of the island nation will be very miserable.
As a last resort, Kato Takaaki had no choice but to go to the German Foreign Office and ask for an audience with the German Emperor Qin Tian. But the reply I got was still waiting for the notification. This made the hearts of the people in the island delegation even more bottomless. And Hirohito is under tremendous pressure because of this.
