Although the war is not over yet, there is no doubt that the Asia-Europe military alliance will win a final victory. France has been defeated, and the United States has long since been destroyed by the Chinese Empire. After the Austro-Hungarian capital was occupied by the Kingdom of Prussia, it almost lost its resistance to resist. Russia is also on the verge of extinction, and Britain, the main power in the North Atlantic military alliance, is still under the blockade of the Imperial Navy.

It can be said that soon the Eurasian military alliance will be able to win. However, at this time, new contradictions have come to the fore. The Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, in order to compete for future world hegemony, have begun to fight openly and covertly. The scene that took place on the Eastern European Plain is just a microcosm.

Judging by the current situation, the Chinese Empire undoubtedly has the upper hand. In this war, almost half of the world was under the control of the Chinese Empire. Most of Asia, plus North America, has no country that can compare with the Chinese Empire in terms of land area. Of course, in terms of industrial strength, with the help of the sharp increase in government orders during the war, the empire's industry has also developed greatly, and it has become the most powerful industrial country in the world. It's just that the empire's current industrial strength is still disproportionate to the empire's huge population and vast territory, which makes other countries still have the ability to challenge the empire. For this reason, the Empire can only establish its advantage in this war as much as possible.

The suppression of the Kingdom of Prussia was for this purpose. Among the main members of the Eurasian Military Alliance, the Kingdom of Belgium and the Kingdom of Spain are both hardcore allies of the Chinese Empire, and the relationship between the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the Empire is also very good. Mejid I even prepared the twin princesses to marry the emperor Long Yufei. Only the Kingdom of Prussia. will have an impact on the world hegemony of the empire, and only they have this strength. Able to challenge the world hegemony of the Empire. If it weren't for the fact that the empire had already consumed a lot of manpower and powerlessness in this war, the people of the empire would have developed an antipathy for the war. Long Yufei even planned to use this war to destroy the Prussian Kingdom in one fell swoop, so as not to leave future troubles.

Now, of course, now the Kingdom of Prussia is, after all, an ally of the Reich, and it is morally unjustifiable to launch an attack on an ally. The clash between the armies of the two countries* that took place south of Moscow this time was not necessarily without the intention of the military to provoke the Kingdom of Prussia with this intention to provoke war. However, the reaction of the Kingdom of Prussia next left the Reich somewhat incredulous, after an infantry battalion was eaten by the Reich. These Prussians chose to swallow their anger and only protested to the Reich through diplomatic means. And the empire has always paid no attention to these diplomatic protests.

In fact, as long as you analyze the strength of the Kingdom of Prussia, it is not difficult to understand why they took such a way. In this war, the Kingdom of Prussia was almost besieged by several members of the North Atlantic Military Alliance, and the sea transportation lines were completely cut off, which made the Kingdom of Prussia's material consumption very large. If it weren't for the fact that the Chinese Empire eliminated the British Royal Navy in time and opened up the sea transportation line. Maybe the Kingdom of Prussia won't be able to hold out. Therefore, the Kingdom of Prussia must take into account that now it will tear its face with the Empire and be cut off from all supplies of war materials by the Empire. How long will they be able to hold on.

In this way, the Kingdom of Prussia knew that now was not the time to tear up its face with the Chinese Empire.

Also, if the Kingdom of Prussia could endure this bad breath. As the winner of this war, the Kingdom of Prussia gained benefits. It's also very large. First, their territory will expand eastward into the Eastern European Plain. To the west, it will also annex the northern part of the Netherlands, as far as the North Sea coast. After defeating Austria-Hungary, the Prussians were already planning to annex Bohemia and Austria to create a unified Greater German Empire. In this way, they will become an empire with a population of more than 70 million and a very strong industrial power. Although it cannot be compared with the Chinese Empire in terms of population, the gap in industrial strength is not very large. In this case, the Kingdom of Prussia will undoubtedly have the strength to challenge the Chinese Empire.

This was obviously not what the Chinese Empire wanted to see, so the Empire hoped to stimulate the Kingdom of Prussia to attack the Empire if they lost their minds. In this way, the empire would be able to continue the war and completely destroy the kingdom of Prussia.

It's just that the Prussians are not stupid, they don't seem to be fooled!

"Your Majesty, now the Imperial cavalry has invaded Moscow and is fighting with the Prussians for control of the city. Because the Prussians had the help of the Russians, 70 percent of the city of Moscow fell under the control of the Prussians. The commander of the front asked if he wanted to launch an offensive against the Prussians and drive them out of Moscow! Marshal Niu Meng asked.

"Your Majesty, now that the war is finally coming to an end, the people of the empire are looking forward to the end of the war, and now that the war is starting to start, it is still a war against the allies, and the people of the empire are afraid that it will be difficult for the people of the empire to understand!" Prime Minister Lin Zihao is a little worried, for thousands of years, in China's history, there are still fewer dynasties that have perished because of reckless military force? The common people are also very resistant to such a monarch.

Although, Long Yufei has an extremely lofty status in the empire, and has even been deified. However, if Long Yufei repeatedly does things that the people don't want to see, this will also have a great impact on his prestige. What Long Yufei hopes is to build a strong empire, an empire that can be passed on forever, which requires him to fully consider the opinions of the common people, and not do everything according to his own wishes. In this case, it will definitely lead the common people to abandon him in the end.

Long Yufei nodded, although he knew that this was a good opportunity to completely destroy the Kingdom of Prussia and remove the threat of the Kingdom of Prussia to the Empire. However, the subjects of the empire are short-sighted, and they do not see this. Long Yufei had no other way.

"Moscow, let's do it for now! As long as the Prussians restrain a little and stop provoking us, then there is no need for us to provoke war. Of course, if the Prussians do not know each other and continue to want to rob the Reich of interests, then we have no need to care about their interests! Long Yufei said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Although he felt a little regretful, Marshal Niu Meng still didn't say much.

"In addition, let the army of the Reich intensify its offensive against St. Petersburg. The wealth of the Tsarist royal family could not be taken away by the Prussians. Long Yufei admonished.

Although the wealth of the Russian imperial family has been consumed a lot over the years, the remaining is still considerable, estimated to be between two billion and three billion Chinese dollars. This wealth is very important to the empire and can promote the rapid development of the empire. More importantly, if this wealth fell into the hands of the Prussians, the Prussians would be able to use it to quickly regain their national strength. In this way, it is a serious threat to the empire. Therefore, the most important thing is to preemptively control this wealth in the hands of the Empire.

"Yes, Your Majesty! The cavalry of the Reich was accelerating the offensive towards St. Petersburg. The Prussians were moving a little faster than we did. However, it was impossible for the Prussians to monopolize that wealth! Marshal Niu Meng said firmly.

"What about the Imperial Navy? Where has our fleet gone? Long Yufei asked.

Because the Prussians were now becoming more and more arrogant, the Reich was determined to give the Prussians a good deterrent. Therefore, the formation of four 'Eastern Han class' battleships and four 'Western Han class' battleships of the 5th Fleet of the Imperial Navy was ready to go to the coastal areas of the Kingdom of Prussia to let the Prussians see the strength of the Imperial Navy. In addition, after completing the shock and deterrence of the Prussians, this formation will enter the Baltic Sea and go to St. Petersburg to increase support for the Imperial cavalry attacking St. Petersburg.

"Your Majesty, the fleet of the Imperial Navy is expected to arrive in the waters near Cuxport this afternoon." Marshal Niu Meng said.

Long Yufei nodded, when the Imperial Navy appeared in the open sea of the Prussians, and then carried out a large-scale artillery drill, it is estimated that it should be able to give the Prussians a great shock! This will show them that a strong navy is essential if they want to challenge the Empire. Otherwise, the Kingdom of Prussia would be completely blocked.

If the Kingdom of Prussia could be allowed to devote its limited national strength to the construction of its navy, then the empire would have won. After all, the Navy is quite a money-burner. Every battleship costs a lot. In particular, the construction cost of each cutting-edge battleship is as high as tens of millions of Chinese yuan. Even with the financial resources of the empire, it was difficult to bear, let alone the Kingdom of Prussia. From a financial point of view, the Kingdom of Prussia was not at all an opponent of the Empire.

Once the Prussians began to build up their navy on a large scale, they would have to spend much less money on the army. In this way, the army and navy of the empire will be able to lead the Kingdom of Prussia on a large scale. This is undoubtedly very important for the empire to win the next war.

In the western part of the Kingdom of Prussia, off the coast of Kukshamn, a formation of four 'Eastern Han class' battleships and four 'Western Han class' battleships of the Imperial Navy was conducting live-fire training on the sea. 8 battleships, firing fiercely. On the surface of the sea, the cannon roared, and columns of water rose into the sky, as if the entire sea surface was boiling. (To be continued......)
