Alfrey could also imagine why Sun Hao didn't stand up to protest back then, and he didn't come out to negotiate with a battleship until today. The war on the islands of Papua was a naval battle, and it had little to do with the army. Even though the German Empire had a strong army, it was impossible to swim and fight. As long as the Huaxia Army defeated the navy of the British Empire, they could only sigh. The Chinese could even directly attack their colony of Australia, threatening all the colonies of Britain in Oceania.

It can also be said that the German Empire had already lost before the war. Maybe the British Empire has the ability to fight with the Chinese army, but the British don't dare to gamble with their own national fortunes, and the old guys in their Congress will not be stupid enough to fight a war with the Chinese country for the sake of the islands of Papua, this slap-sized colony. The British don't dare to gamble because they can't afford to lose.

After thinking about this, Alfrey slowly began to plan his future path. It seems that the position of the governor may not be kept, and his own country may not hesitate to exchange the colonies of Oceania in order to get the warships in Sun Hao's hands, but it is difficult to predict how to exchange and what kind of price Sun Hao will pay.

It is impossible for the empire to fight Sun Hao for this colony. The Chinese Navy has the confidence to defeat the British Empire, and with the few old warships of the Empire, it is completely vulnerable in front of the Chinese Navy.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief Sun, I would like to know, what are you going to do with the British Empire?" Alfrey asked.

"If the British don't know how to be interested, this commander should see if their navy is powerful, or our Chinese navy is powerful, I can bet, but the British don't dare to bet, because they can't afford to lose." Sun Hao smoked his cigar with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth. Sun Hao believed that the British did not dare to gamble with the fortunes of the country, and it was a naval battle with unpredictable outcome and defeat.

However, Sun Hao did not dare to provoke the British too much, and he was not sure enough to defeat this global hegemon at present. Britain's navy has developed to this day, with a history of several hundred years, and there are countless generals who are quite rich in naval battles, but it is not comparable to the navy that has only been trained for two years.

However, he also has certain advantages, that is, an accurate fire control and aiming system, a powerful main warship, and hundreds of elusive submarines, which are Sun Hao's confidence.

The British must also want to get the blueprints of this powerful battleship, as long as they do what they like, give the British enough face, and believe that they will make a wise choice.

Sun Hao didn't want to bring war to himself right away, his foundation was still very shallow, and he couldn't compare with these old colonial countries at all. Therefore, Sun Hao can only take some means to preserve his strength as much as possible, and then let the British and Germans in World War I fight to the death, so that he can profit from it.

However, the Kingdom of the Netherlands in the northwest did not wage war on its own, and the Kingdom of the Netherlands did not have many troops in the South Seas, and there were not many army units on the islands of Papua. Although his troops are well-equipped, they have not been baptized by war, and the Kingdom of the Netherlands is a good training target.

"Hello Commander-in-Chief Sun, the Kingdom of the Netherlands is a friend of our German Germany, and Her Majesty the Queen of the Netherlands is a friend of Her Majesty the Kaiser. Alfrey knew that the Kingdom of the Netherlands might not give up the rich Northwest Lands so easily, and Sun Hao would not be able to let the Kingdom of the Netherlands continue to colonize the islands of Papua.

Therefore, Alfrey estimated that the two sides would inevitably settle the matter with war. When Alfrey saw the guns equipped by Sun Hao's guards, Alfrey knew that the Kingdom of the Netherlands, which had long since sunset, was definitely not the opponent of the Huaxia Army.

After Sun Hao heard the translation, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, the relationship between Germany and the Netherlands was very good, otherwise when he lost World War I, Wilhelm II would not have taken refuge in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. But Germany's hand was too long. The Kingdom of the Netherlands persecuted so many Chinese in Nanyang, and it was not good to teach them a lesson, which is a bit sorry for those dead Chinese.

"Your Excellency the Governor, if the Kingdom of the Netherlands can take the initiative to withdraw from the Northwest Islands, maybe this commander will not start a war, if they are not interested, this commander will not mind giving them an unforgettable lesson."

Then, the two talked about some unnutritious topics, and in the end, Alfrey could not make the decision, and the specific negotiations would wait for the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the German Navy in 20 days. It will only be decided after Red arrives.

Originally, Alfrey wanted to keep Sun Hao to play in Madang for a few days, but Sun Hao politely refused. In the afternoon, the Second Fleet set off for Fuming City.

On the same day, Alfrey received a telegram from a spy lurking in the Dutch colony of Cannes on the northwest peninsula of the Papua island, saying that a large fleet had appeared in the waters of Cannes, flying the Chinese military flag, with five warships with a displacement of about 30,000 tons, and eight main guns mounted on twin 15-inch guns.

There are also 10 battleships with a displacement of about 30,000 tons, and these 10 battleships are only equipped with three twin 15-inch guns. At the same time, the fleet has 15 cruisers with a displacement of about 10,000 tons and 20 destroyers with a displacement of more than 4,000 tons. The sailors of these fleets were all yellow faces.

After Alfrey received the telegram, he no longer doubted Sun Hao's words in his heart, now that there are two fleets, who knows if there is a third or fourth fleet in the Huaxia Army! Even if they only have two fleets, it is not something that the navy of the German Empire can compete with, no wonder Sun Hao has the confidence to challenge the British Empire.

Sun Hao had two fleets so powerful, and Alfrey really wanted to see the two sides fight, no matter who won or lost in the end, it was in the interests of the German Empire.

Hope is good, but reality is unlikely, Alfrey knows that Sun Hao is not a fool, since he is a descendant of the Ming people, then his dream may only be to restore the country, defeat the Qing Dynasty, and revive the Ming Dynasty. He would never fight to the death with the British Empire. However, since he wants to restore the country, sooner or later there will be a conflict with the interests of the British Empire in the Qing Dynasty, and sooner or later the two sides will go to war.

If things go according to this, then Sun Hao may become a friend of the German Empire, and both sides have a common interest, which is to defeat the British Empire. The army, the German Empire to deal with, the navy, Sun Hao to deal with.

Hahaha! Alfrey couldn't help but laugh out loud when he thought of this. As long as Sun Hao defeats the navy of the British Empire, Britain's tens of millions of square kilometers of colonies are not Germany's meal, meat on the lips? The more Alfrey thought about it, the happier he became.
