Chapter 189: Bitter Meat Scheme
Qiao Wuye is really a big guy with hands and eyes, and the news came back quickly.
It turns out that this involves Northern Europe, and the German navy of this world is not as tragic as the original two world wars. There are several dozen battleships, although most of them are dreadnoughts, but they can't stand the world can be refitted, after years of development, most of the ship's hulls have been transformed into Bismarck-class battleships.
It turns out that in the world, two Bismarcks made it difficult for Britain to sleep, not to mention that there are thousands of ships in this world?
Moreover, it turned out that in the world, due to the obstruction of the Air Force Commander Goringo the Fat Man, Germany did not have a formed aircraft carrier in World War II. The situation in this world is very different, Germany actually has more than 30 prototype aircraft carriers, the vast majority of which are aircraft carriers. But after hundreds of years of farming, the Germans also amassed hundreds of Zeppelin-class aircraft carriers.
Therefore, in this world, Germany's naval strength is the third in the world, only after the United States and Britain, and it is stronger than the Eastern Empire. The pressure on the British home fleet can be imagined.
The situation in Northern Europe in this world is similar to the original world, the military is very weak, but it is rich in resources, with inexhaustible iron ore and rich oil. This is like a three-year-old child holding gold through the market, which naturally attracts the covetousness of the three powerful evil beings next to him.
Britain, Germany, and Russia have unconsciously extended their evil hands to this place.
Russia's weakest chicken, under pressure, can only side with the British. No matter how strong the strong tower man in Germany is, he can't stand two bewitching women who are like wolves and tigers, and they are so addicted to all kinds of hand-to-hand combat that they have the heart to ask France for help, but Russia is almost supported by France, and France can't wait for Germany to die, so it's good not to stick a knife in the back.
Against this background, Germany came up with a solution – to split the enemy.
Britain in the west is not easy to do, people have a big business, and if you are in a hurry, maybe you will fight with you, and Germany will not be able to live in the anus when the time comes. Naturally, the evil gaze was fixed on the east. The hand of sin also naturally reached the pillars of the Russian Baltic Fleet at that time - Alexandrovna and Catherine.
In Xu Zhonglin's opinion, the whole process is not very clever - bitter meat trick.
There was a normal exchange of military personnel between countries, and at another similar exchange meeting, Alexandrovna met a fellow countryman, the battleship Lady Hesse from Germany, and Catherine the Great also met a fellow shipship, Lady Pomerania.
The Hesse belonged to the former dreadnought battleships of the Braunschweig-class, and was inconspicuous among the German battleship wives of Maodo, but Alexandrovna naturally had a sense of affection for the other party, because the hometown of the queen who named her was Hesse. The situation was similar on Catherine's side, Pomerania, or Pomern, was a Deutschland-class dreadnought, also the Emperor's hometown.
When the fellow saw the fellow, his eyes were full of tears. Alexandrovna, who has a more easy-going personality, inevitably asks about the situation in her hometown. It doesn't matter if you ask, something big has happened.
The actress Hessian children's shoes is a qualified actor: You Britain and Russia are one after the other, and we Germans are thin and can hardly bear it. The country is now like a sieve - leaking everywhere.
The people in my hometown are even more uncomfortable, they have no food and clothing, and they will soon sell their children and daughters.
At that time, Russia blocked the Baltic Sea estuary, and Britain blocked the way out of the North Sea, and Germany did have some difficulties at home, but not to that extent.
Of course, Alexandrovna would not believe Hesse's words, and she chose to verify it from the side. A large number of situations in Germany were sent back through spies and double agents under her care, and the results were as different as Hesse said. Still a little unconvinced, she went to ask Catherine again.
The Emperor is a well-known man, a peerless warrior who tears polar bears by hand, how can he care about these details on weekdays? When I heard about this, I suddenly remembered my hometown, Pomerania.
The news they got was naturally similar, and the two shipwives couldn't help but feel deep empathy for the people of their hometown.
Of course, it won't be that simple, but a seed has been planted in the hearts of the two bigwigs.
In the period that followed, friendly exchanges between the two sides became very close, most of them requested by Germany, and at a very high level. As the pillars of the Baltic Fleet, Alexandrovna and Catherine naturally had to participate every time, and on the German side, Hesse and Pomerania also 'happened' to be there every time.
Hesse did not persuade Alexandrovna: you rebel, for the sake of your homeland, for the sake of the motherland, for the sake of the people...... That's not realistic. She just changed her method and turned into a melancholy little princess, and every time she held a banquet, she hid in the corner alone with a photo of the people in her hometown in dire straits, and secretly wept.
And every time it can be met by Alexandrovna 'by chance'.
In Alexandrovna's opinion, Hesse was a warm-hearted and empathetic girl, and every time she would take a stack of photos and explain to her: Look at this, it looks like two fathers holding their respective children, but they are not. This is easy to eat! The two men couldn't bear to eat their own children, so they had to exchange each other's children to eat, because there was really nothing to eat. What the? You say their wives? Woowoowoo...... It has long been eaten. If you look at this again, the bark has been stripped away, and the crops in the field have been robbed before they can reach maturity...... In short, three words - miserable! Miserable! Miserable!!
Alexandrovna asked in disbelief: why is Germany so miserable and has not collapsed yet?
Hesse angrily told her that the rest of Germany was actually doing better than this, for example, the Bavarians could still drink beer, but it was all exploited from other places. For example, in remote areas like Hesse and Pomerania, there is no big guy on top, and no one cares about the people when they die! Moreover, the whole German press control, outsiders do not know about this situation at all, and if you don't believe it, you can send someone to these places to verify.
The big guy really personally found someone to go to Hesse and Pomerania to verify, the German side had already prepared, and the acting was like the real thing, looking like hell on earth, there were pictures and truths, and there was even a short video, and Alexandrovna's heart was about to break when he watched it.
At a later exchange meeting, Hesse's words hit Alexandrovna's soul directly: I do not ask you to betray the interests of Russia to give back to Germany, but for the sake of your compatriots, do not join forces with Britain to bully us. They are all relatives in your hometown, even if you don't help them, don't send them to the gallows with your own hands. Our shipwrecks should have united to fight the deep sea, even if we can't be angels, we can't be a butcher who slaughters people!
From then on, Alexandrovna's mind would always conjure up the image of several yellow-skinned men gathered around a cauldron of human hands and feet, bloody clothing, and the dead heads of several children, beside a barren farmland with no end in sight......
