"Father, even if we have to face the pressure of Britain, France, the United States and Russia, China is also their enemy, and the Chinese also have to face their pressure. Therefore, I think that the alliance of Britain, France, the United States, and Russia may have an impact on us, but it is inevitable. On the contrary, in the face of such strong pressure, the Chinese will definitely take the initiative to move closer to us! When the time comes, we may be able to get China to join the Allies, and then, at our disposal! Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm said.

It's just that Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm's words did not get any approval, and Kaiser Wilhelm II glared at him angrily. Suddenly, Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm knew that he had said the wrong thing again.

"The confrontation between the Allies and the Entente was primarily in Europe, not in Asia. The Entente did not have too much power in Asia and even in the Pacific, and at best it was only a confrontation between China and the United States. Therefore, this root will not have much impact on China. On the contrary, the Entente is likely to woo China, or keep China neutral. In this case, then our allies are in danger. Prime Minister Hornlowe, Chillingsfirst, said.

"The Chinese can't be fools, right? If we are defeated, they will be the next target of the Allies! Crown Prince Friedrich Wilhelm said.

"Of course! However, if the terms offered by the Entente can satisfy China. Or, if the self-confident Chinese emperor would have thought that China was strong enough to withstand the Entente's attack. Then it is very likely that they will remain neutral in our confrontation with the Entente. This will not be a good thing for Germany or the Allies as a whole! Prime Minister Hornlowe, Chillingsfirst, said.

"Tomorrow I will go to see the Chinese emperor, and I must tie the Chinese to our chariot!" Kaiser Wilhelm II said firmly.

"陛xià. Now that the confrontation has begun, war is inevitable. Well, we are now already preparing for war. All kinds of strategic resources must be started in reserve. Food, weapons and ammunition need to be prepared as well as possible. No one can be sure how long this war will last. We have to be prepared! The Chief of the General Staff of the German Army, Count Alfred von Schlieffen, said.

Kaiser Wilhelm II nodded, and then said: "From now on, the government will find a way to prepare for the war, and the resources that are lacking." It can be purchased from the Chinese. If the funds are not enough, then we exchange technology. Many of the technologies we have now are still what the Chinese want to get. It should be possible to exchange a large number of materials from the Chinese. As long as you can win this war, then. The whole of Europe and the world will be dominated by Germany! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Hornlowe Chillingspfister replied.

"Your Majesty, the Admiralty will speed up the construction of our 'Nassau-class' and 'Helgoland-class' battleships, in order to gain an advantage over the British Navy in terms of time. and the subsequent design and construction of the 'Caesar-class' battleships and the 'King-class' battleships. The Imperial Navy would be the only hope for the Empire to break the British blockade. We must strengthen the Imperial Navy as much as possible before the war begins! "said the Secretary of the Navy Alfred von Tirpitz. It was clear that Germany could not forever get the design drawings from the Chinese Navy and then build its own battleships, which was unacceptable to the arrogant Germans. After the 'Nassau-class' battleships and the 'Helgoland-class' battleships were imitations of the 'Zhonghua-class' battleships and the 'Qin-class' battleships of the Chinese Navy. The subsequent 'Caesar-class' battleships and 'King-class' battleships, the German Navy was already preparing its own design. And, they believed, they would design and build more powerful battleships.

"The Empire will do everything in its power to support the Navy!" Kaiser Wilhelm II assured. For the military power of Germany. The army was very reassuring to Wilhelm II. Although, the pace of development of the army is not fast. But Wilhelm II was convinced that to defeat France, Germany's main rival in Europe, the problem was not too big. The Navy, however, is less reassuring. Compared to the British Royal Navy, the German Navy was like a baby who had just learned to walk. Therefore, in order to defeat the British Royal Navy, the German Navy had to be well prepared.

"Not only battleships, but also battlecruisers, which the Chinese took the lead in building, must also begin to step up construction. Once the war began, Germany would face a total blockade from Great Britain. When the time comes, we can also blockade the British with the same battle cruisers. If it weren't for the support from the colonies, I believe Britain would have collapsed before we did! Kaiser Wilhelm II said.

"Yes, Your Majesty! The Admiralty has already begun to improve the Chinese' 'Baiqi-class' battlecruisers, and in two months we will start building our own battlecruisers, which will be named the 'von der Tann-class' battlecruisers, three of which will be built at once. If the construction is in good condition, the construction of the next class of battlecruisers will be considered! Secretary of the Navy Alfred von Tirpitz replied.

"Three is not enough, to block the sea lines of communication of the British, at least six are enough. It is possible to build the first level, but after the start of the war, we must have enough battlecruisers to carry out the task of blockading Britain! Kaiser Wilhelm II said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The Minister of the Navy, Alfred von Tirpitz, replied. Although this requires too much money, Kaiser Wilhelm II has already spoken, so he has no choice but to do what is asked. As for funding, it's up to the government to figure it out. Although Germany's fiscal revenue is insufficient, there are other ways to do so. For example, selling certain advanced patented technologies to the Chinese and so on. Although, this will have an impact on Germany's future security. But as long as this war can be won, then it will be worth it.

Because of the sudden alliance of Britain, France, the United States, and Russia, the whole of Germany felt an unprecedented crisis. Under the leadership of Kaiser Wilhelm II, Germany had begun to prepare frantically for war. The confrontation between the Central Powers and the Entente in Europe would plunge the whole of Europe into turmoil and tension.

At the same time, Wang Yuze, the culprit who caused this qiē, was also holding a telegram with a sad face. Imperial Foreign Minister Wu Tingfang and Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo sat in front of him. Everyone's faces are not very good-looking. Because, this time it seems to be a bit self-defeating.

"These shit-day Britons, haven't they always believed in glorious isolation? How did you form an alliance so quickly? Wang Yuze threw the telegram in his hand on the table. After Britain, France, the United States, and Russia signed a military alliance assistance treaty, China's military intelligence agency also obtained relevant information, and then sent an encrypted telegram to Wang Yuze, who was in Germany.

Originally, Wang Yuze was just planning to trick the Germans, make the naval arms race between Britain and Germany more intense, and make them consume more national strength. But I didn't expect it at all, but this directly led to the early confrontation of the two major military alliances. This also makes it not so easy for China to fish in troubled waters.

"Your Majesty, then what should we do? The national policy of the empire was to take the lead in defeating the Americans with the help of the British and Germans when they were fighting to the death in Europe. But the Americans joined the Entente, and if we did something against the Americans, we would inevitably be besieged by the Entente. In this case, the pressure on the empire will be too great! Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo said.

"Hmmm! It's really going to put us under a lot of pressure. However, we are too far away from Europe, and we only have to deal with the Americans and Germany, and it will not be so easy for Britain and France to put pressure on us. In addition, the main targets of Britain and France will also be the Germans. At least until they beat Germany, or gain the upper hand, they will try to avoid a hard fight with us! Wang Yuze said. Although, the Entente was established ahead of schedule, and the United States also joined it, which had a great impact on China. But in reality, the external environment facing China has not changed much.

"Your Majesty, if it really doesn't work, then let's join the Allies. Now Britain, France, the United States, and Russia have formed the Entente, and their strength is much stronger than that of the Central Powers dominated by Germany. But if we add in, the strength of both sides should be almost balanced! Foreign Minister Ng Dinh Phuong said.

"No! Join the Allies now, it's too much trouble. Among the Central Powers, with the exception of Germany, the other two were waste. Joining the Allies will not only have to compete with Germany for the dominance of the Allies, but also be dragged down by two wastes, which is very disadvantageous to us! Wang Yuze shook his head, even if the Entente was established ahead of schedule, he did not think of joining the Allied Powers. After all, Germany was not going to cede the dominance of the Allies. In the early stages of the war, China's goals were mainly focused on the United States and Asia, and it would not prematurely intervene in Europe. Therefore, joining the Allies will not do China any good.

"Your Majesty, in this situation, we can only come and cover up the water! In any case, it is always right to further strengthen the military power of the empire. As long as the imperial power is strong enough, whether it is the Entente or the Allied countries, we can ignore them and develop step by step according to the imperial plan! Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo said!
