"Haha! Marriage! That's right, we can marry the Chinese. I believe that the Chinese royal family will not refuse to marry the ancient Hohenzollern royal family. Once Germany and China are married, our relationship will be even closer. Germany will be in the East, with a close ally! Kaiser Wilhelm II said excitedly. In Europe, in order to strengthen ties between countries, royal marriages are very frequent. Just like William II's mother, Princess Louis, the daughter of Queen Victoria. Therefore, in the eyes of Wilhelm II, marriage with China was a good way to strengthen the close relations between China and Germany.

"Your Majesty, you won't take it seriously, will you? I'm just talking about it. Thousands of miles away in the East, it is a desolate, barbaric and backward place, don't you want our daughter to marry in that kind of place? Moreover, the royal family of Europe has never married a yellow person! Queen Augusta Vertoria said with some horror.

"Yellow people? So what's going on? Now China already has the power to dominate the world, even if it is a yellow race, they also have extremely strong strength. Besides, the Eastern Empire is not as backward as you think, but it is still very developed, not much worse than Germany. The thousands of years of Ming in the East cannot be compared with Europe! Kaiser Wilhelm II said.

"Your Majesty, okay then. So which princess do you want to be friendly with the Chinese? Who is the object of harmony? The young emperor of China? Although he already has an empress, I have heard that Chinese can have several wives at the same time. And this young Chinese emperor seems to have five wives! Empress Augusta Vertoria asked.

Wilhelm II couldn't help frowning, but he didn't think of the choice of marriage. His daughter, Princess Victoria Louis. It's just a nine-year-old girl. His father, the daughter of Frederick III, was also married. This gave Wilhelm II a bit of a headache. Is it possible to choose one of the daughters of the kings of the German states? However, Wilhelm II was a little worried that the kings of these states, with the support of China, would challenge the position of the Prussian crown in Germany.

"陛xià. I heard that the eldest son of the Emperor of China, the Crown Prince of China, was not yet nine years old. In the future, he will definitely inherit the mighty empire of the East. Otherwise, let Victoria Luis marry the crown prince of China! It's just that in this case, it will be difficult for us to see our daughter in the future! Queen Augusta Vertoria said with some sadness.

Wilhelm II was also somewhat displeased. He only had one daughter, although, in his opinion, the crown prince of China was qualified to marry his daughter. However, they are too young to compare them and wait for them to reach adulthood. If the wedding had taken place again, the war would have already begun. This is not in line with Wilhelm II's idea of marrying China.

"Louis can marry the crown prince of China, but not now. Now we need to strengthen our ties with China. Since there is no suitable candidate for the royal family, there is only someone else who is cheap. The King of Bavaria also had several daughters. I believe there will be a good candidate! Wilhelm II thought for a moment, then said. The relationship between the Kingdom of Bavaria, an important state of the German Empire, and the German Imperial Family. It's also very close. At least, after the Bavarian royal family and the Chinese emperor married. Wilhelm II did not have to worry that the Bavarian royal family would want to replace the German royal family.

"Your Majesty, will the Chinese agree?" Queen Augusta Vertoria asked with some concern. After all, this is just a discussion between the husband and wife, and the opinions of the Chinese have not been sought.

"I believe that the Chinese will not refuse. In order for China and Germany to trust each other even more, we should forge closer relations! Kaiser Wilhelm II said. He is also a person who puts the interests of the country first, and he can see that Wang Yuze is also the same. This marriage is very beneficial to both China and Germany. Therefore, Wang Yuze should not refuse.

The next day, negotiations between China and Germany continued, and even though Germany was ready to back down, the two sides had a heated argument after the negotiations began.

"Your Majesty, Emperor of China, you must know that Britain and France are the most powerful countries of the Entente. Only by defeating them will we be able to win the war. As for the United States, after defeating Britain and France, we will be able to defeat the United States lightly! Kaiser Wilhelm II said.

"No, no! His Majesty the Kaiser! The United States has great industrial power, and once all these industrial forces begin to serve the war, they will explode into unimaginable terrorist power. And if the United States has strong industrial power behind it, it will be difficult for us to defeat Britain and France. Therefore, in the early days of the outbreak of the war, we must concentrate our forces to kill the United States first! Wang Yuze explained. Nowadays, people can't imagine that the United States, a seemingly militarily weak country, will have such terrible potential as it erupts in a war. Wang Yuze will never allow such a mistake to be made.

Wilhelm II and the German ministers were silent. A few minutes later, Kaiser Wilhelm II said: "If, then, China attacks the United States with all its might after the war, how long will it take to defeat the United States?" Then join the European theater. You know, after the outbreak of the Great War, Britain and France will definitely blockade Germany. And Germany is poor in resources, and we can't hold out for long under the blockade of Britain and France! ”

Hearing that Wilhelm II's attitude had softened, Wang Yuze's heart was greatly excited.

"Your Majesty, if China concentrates all its efforts on attacking the United States and the war goes well, we will be able to completely destroy the United States within two years. Of course, after the destruction of the United States, the interests of the Americas will belong to Germany! Wang Yuze said. He knew that if China tried to monopolize the interests of the Americas, Germany would certainly not do it. Anyway, now we will promise that it will be China that will occupy the United States at that time, and how much benefit it will give Germany depends on the specific situation. If relations between Germany and China deteriorate sharply, it would be okay not to give Germany at all.

"No, His Majesty the Emperor of China, two years is too long. A year, a year later, China will attack Britain and France, as well as Russia, with all its might, and open up the connection between Germany and China! Kaiser Wilhelm II said.

"A year is too rushed, my army, need to cross the Pacific Ocean and launch an attack on the United States. The Americans, on the other hand, are now actively preparing for war, their battleships are being built one by one, and their land forces are beginning to be continuously expanded. If the United States is to be destroyed at that time, it will be very difficult! ”

"Well, a year and a half! A year and a half later, China had to attack Britain and France with its main forces. This is Germany's bottom line. And, before the war begins, China needs to sell enough important strategic materials to Germany so that Germany can hold out! Kaiser Wilhelm II said.

After Wang Yuze hesitated for a moment, he nodded in agreement. Although he also believes that it will be more difficult to get rid of the United States within a year and a half. However, as long as the US Navy can be solved within a year and a half, and the Chinese Army has landed millions of troops in the United States, the problem should not be very big.

Once the main differences are resolved, the negotiations between the two sides will progress much faster. By the afternoon, the two sides had agreed. As long as the two emperors signed the secret agreement, then China and Germany would become the closest allies. In this regard, Wang Yuze is a very ally. At a time when China does not yet have the strength to single-handedly take on the rest of the world, it is very important to have an ally like Germany to contain the main strength of Britain and France for China. Although Germany also has ambitions for the world, as long as Germany consumes most of its national strength in the war, China is developing rapidly. When the time comes, when China and Germany compete for world hegemony, China will be able to occupy an absolute advantage.

Just when Wang Yuze thought that he could sign a secret agreement with Germany, Kaiser Wilhelm II made another additional request.

"His Majesty, Emperor of China, I think that in order to strengthen relations between China and Germany, we should use other ways to strengthen our intimate relations!" Wilhelm II said.

"Oh? How? Wang Yuze asked in some surprise, I don't know what kind of moth Wilhelm II is going to produce.

"Marriage! I think that we can have a marriage between China and Germany, the first marriage between the royal families of the East and the West, in the world, in order to strengthen the relationship between our two countries! Wilhelm II said with a smile, as if he thought it was a very good idea!

"Marriage? China and Germany? But, Your Majesty, I already have a queen? Wang Yuze's eyes widened, he didn't expect Wilhelm II to make such a move. If China and Germany marry, the Entente will definitely focus on guarding against China.

"It doesn't matter, I know, Chinese customs are different from Europe, Chinese men can have several wives, and this is also the envy of all European men!" Wilhelm II said with a smile.

The other German ministers also laughed. Wilhelm II had already informed them of this intention, and they all agreed. European men, no matter how brilliant, have only one wife. There may be many lovers, but there can only be one wife on the surface.

Wang Yuze rolled his eyes, and then said: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, you only have one daughter, who is only nine years old. Your father's princesses are all married, right? ”

"Don't worry at all, the one who married His Majesty the Emperor of China is the princess of King Ludwig III of Bavaria!" Wilhelm II said with a smile.
