"Don't say it, I'll buy it, can't we buy it?"

Ito Hirobumi finally reluctantly accepted the Frenchman's proposal.

Napoleon's coaxing and intimidating marketing methods finally convinced the Japanese side and promised to buy a batch of Chasebo rifles from France. Because of the sales at a low price, Russia bought a considerable amount of inventory, while Japan, because it had just ended the Hakodate War and its national strength was empty, and it did not have the strength to buy a large number of French Chasebo, so it only purchased a small batch.

For this small batch of Xia Saibo, Ito Hirobumi's heart still feels distressed.

The French were naturally very happy with the generosity of the Japanese, and Napoleon's level of wealth made the Japanese stay away from Paris as soon as possible.

What happened in the Far East had nothing to do with Napoleon, and it was up to them to decide where Japan would go in the future. The originally scheduled plot should evolve as it should evolve, and the trend of changing the history of the East without authorization is the most deadly. Because there is a hat called historical nihilism.

Ito's procurement was nothing more than painless mosquito meat for Napoleon. So he didn't show the treasure of the box, the foreign trade version of Makqin, and he was waiting for the richer financier to make a move. And the two most

Turkey, which is fighting to the death with Russia, is impossible, so the only suitable seller for Makqin is a Japanese competitor.

In any case, the Portuguese-French conflict that took place in the Congolese colony has been deliberately publicized, especially the propaganda that the new French machine gun has blocked the conflict of several times the military strength of the Portuguese colonial army, and France's every move has also aroused Germany's vigilance and uneasiness.

During Bismarck's stay away from the political center, Crown Prince Frederick slowly began to come into contact with politics, although important political decisions were still held by his father, Wilhelm I. But Crown Prince Frederick also slowly instilled and expressed his own ideas to his father.

"My father, have you ever considered the question of a rapprochement between Germany and France?"

Crown Prince Frederick said cautiously, "I don't think there should be a question of hostility between France and Germany. ”

William I said disdainfully, "Does it not exist? Since the Holy Roman Empire, Germany and France have been in a state of undying, and both Germany and France are vying for the first place in continental Europe. Otherwise, why do you think Prime Minister Bismarck wanted to establish the Three Emperors Alliance, just to suppress the French. They have forced us to postpone our rise for more than two hundred years, and on that basis Germany has reason to consider them as competitors! ”

"But."

Crown Prince Frederick raised his own questions, "The current situation is that neither of us can conquer anyone, and if France and Germany form an alliance, we can encircle Turkey to suppress Russia and resist the British together." Britain is still the world's number one naval power, and our outward expansion will certainly not be able to bypass them, but if the British and French naval forces are combined, there should still be a chance of victory. In order to attack the maritime order established by the British, it is necessary to have strong enough power, and the German military power of the European continent, together with the naval power of France and ours, is enough to establish the entire European order. ”

"Impossible!"

Wilhelm I said disdainfully, "Even in another five hundred years, France and Germany will not form a community!" Not to mention 500 years, even if Chancellor Bismarck is still around, there will be no possibility of reconciliation. ”

"The purpose of German reunification is to take revenge on the French who have oppressed us. In the future, there will definitely be an even more tragic war of revenge between the two countries. ”

Of course, King William did not have a chance to live to the moment of the formation of the European Union, not even his grandson.

After being reprimanded by William I, Crown Prince Frederick stopped talking. He was influenced by the liberal and enlightened ideas of Britain and always opposed the iron-blooded policy of Prime Minister Bismarck. In the same vein, he believed that France and Germany were not at a point of indefinite fighting, and that if they could establish a political community, it would be more reliable than the alliance established by Prime Minister Bismarck.

"But you also see the consequences of Chancellor Bismarck's so-called iron-blooded policy. We almost had a bad relationship with the Catholic countries of southern Europe, and we were almost caught by the French. More importantly, his iron-clad policy also brought the contradictions between the Germans and the Slavs under the same framework. Every move taken by my father, Chancellor Bismarck, after the reunification of Germany, was wrong! ”

"Shut up!"

Wilhelm I, who was silent, was his best friend, and Wilhelm would never allow Crown Prince Frederick to express his dissenting views too much politically when he had not yet become king. This will be used as a political signal by people with ulterior motives.

Germany cannot afford to lack a politician as good as Bismarck.

"My child will be careful with your words in the future, even if it is in private in the future, I will not allow you to express your views so directly. Every word you say becomes the driving force behind the political conspiracy. But in my heart, Bismarck did make a great contribution to the unification of the country, and without Bismarck, your future road would be even more difficult. ”

King William patted him on the shoulder and looked at him earnestly. Although his son is over forty years old, he still has some unrealistic illusions on many issues.

Seeing that his father had already said so, it was difficult for the crown prince to continue to insist on his political views. He is now in his forties and will inherit the country in a few more years. Although he knows that he may come into conflict with the prime minister when he takes office, his political views will not attract the attention of others at the moment.

"I don't care what happens to you, but for now, you're still the crown prince. Not a king, remember that! ”

Crown Prince Frederick didn't speak, he just looked at his father quietly.

Realizing that his tone might be too heavy, King William softened his emotions and said to him, "All right. I hope that you will not stick to what you have learned in England and discard premature preconceptions. Europe is now moving in an increasingly unpredictable direction, especially in the Balkans. With Britain, Russia and Austria-Hungary all involved, the situation we face will become more and more complex, and the problem will also change from a regional problem to an international one, which involves the movements of forces on all sides. And the French will certainly make a move in this part of the Balkans. ”

"Maybe in the future, you're right. But not now. ”。
