Wechen felt that the German side might need more diplomatic support, and they probably had no hope for our actual support. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Diplomatic verbal support, generally speaking, is an announcement, or a press release, this way seems to be useless in the eyes of ordinary people, is it Zhuge Liang, can you fight the Confucianism with your tongue, and fight the world with your mouth? Of course, only when the naked military force is taken out and the army is used to deter it, is there obvious support.

In fact, this kind of thinking is not necessarily wrong, but it must be a one-sided idea, if it is so simple, then China does not need to worry about any British protests and statements as long as the UK does not directly send troops or warships into the South China Sea?

If the affairs between countries are so simple, then there is no need for the existence of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at all, and the big guys only need to list the army and warships, and the big guys will compete with each other, and whoever is strong will win, and whoever is weak will get out.

But obviously this is not the case, the purpose of foreign affairs is to avoid the use of force, to maximize the interests of the country, and to use the way of force to solve many problems that will be very difficult to spend force, such as mediation, mediation, announcements, declarations and other ways that are not force, a country's position is revealed, other countries have to weigh whether it is more beneficial to the country's position or to oppose it is more beneficial to the country's interests, not just a declaration, It also proves that a whole country stands in one place, and if it wants to stand with Germany, then the huge power of Asia can help Germany occupy more advantages in the international community.

There is a saying called "Gain more help", this is not a hypocritical and useless word, why the British are so angry in international affairs, a big reason is that they can summon a large group of younger brothers at any time to take advantage of the large number of people, he engaged in the balance of power strategy in Europe, then with other countries, will maintain a certain friendly relations, then naturally, not on the premise of involving their own interests, loyalty to Britain is a very normal thing, not to mention Britain, just say France, During the Sino-French War, Italy, Turkey, Spain and several other countries were drawn together to oppose China's military actions in Vietnam, and Prime Minister Yamen felt that it was a little difficult to breathe, which was just breathless, but when Britain announced its support for France, its position on the Vietnam War did not waver, but China did think to a certain extent whether it was worth opposing Britain for Vietnam.

This is the strategy of diplomacy, so sometimes, a country would rather give covert support, such as money and guns, and it is impossible to declare support on an official occasion, if it is really difficult to understand, then see Shi Dakai's Bangladesh, the Empress Dowager Cixi ordered the governor of Yungui to send out how many guns and ammunition were sent out, but on the surface, she still insisted on declaring to the angry British Indian governor: "We express our indignation and condemnation of the rebels in Bangladesh, and are willing to join forces with the Indian side to fight these rebels." ”

Therefore, it is normal for the Empress Dowager Cixi to be reluctant to tear her face with the British at present, there is no need to fall out for this place and the gold mines here, there are more gold mines in the world, there are gold mines in the Outer Khing'an Mountains, Golden State (Alaska), why go to southern Africa to join in the fun, and the current sailors, French technology is not a complete joke, and it is more difficult to sail completely independently in the ocean, so it is actually more difficult to hold.

Of course, it also depends on the conditions of the Germans, "Of course we can have practical help, but," the Empress Dowager Cixi raised her chin and said proudly, "Verbal help is also very expensive, just see how the Germans offer." ”

"We, the emerging countries, if we don't seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to win the space for our nation and country to survive, and want to find this kind of opportunity in the future, it will be very difficult, so I think that your country can sit down and prepare early, we need your country's support, then of course, your country can also get our help in Africa."

"We have come thousands of miles to your country to participate in this meeting led by your country, which is to support Germany," Zeng Jize said gently, "Please rest assured that we will definitely support your country, but in the Boer region, we are indeed not ready to intervene, and when our queen mother told your country that there are gold mines in the Boer region, she has already indicated that she is not ready to get involved in the African zone." ”

"But your country is now interested in the territory of Africa again, isn't it?" Li Weili smiled and said, "The world situation, the situation of the country will change with the change of time and space, and the appetite of a country is also directly proportional to its national strength, if forty years ago, our Prussia's approximate goal was to become the leader of the German vassal states, and the goal of thirty years ago has changed, that is, to unify the whole of Germany, the goal of twenty years ago, changed to become a great power on the European continent, and we have achieved these goals." Now, of course, our goal has changed, that is, to continue to expand the living space of the German nation, so that Africa can also have German interests, and the world can listen to Germany's voice. ”

Zeng Jize listened quietly without saying a word, and Li Weili continued, "Your country is the same, it did not have the ability to expand its colonies overseas before, but now, obviously, the form has changed, your country defeated France, to be honest, as I personally, I am very surprised by this result, but just like we defeated Napoleon III, after the impossible befell us, the darlings of fate, of course we have to make changes accordingly, revise our set goals, your country defeated France, Then it means that your country has the ability to occupy colonies all over the world, and of course you can make your own demands on the land of Africa, so I believe that your country will not just come to see the excitement," Li Weili was very confident, "Of course, our formal meeting has not yet begun, and your country will probably need a little time to think about it, of course, we in Germany will not treat our true friends badly, by the way," he looked at his watch, "Our Imperial Majesty is almost there, please let us go to the main venue and sit down, Greet our Imperial Majesty. We will find a suitable time for the gift of the Queen Mother of your country, and ask Your Excellency the Minister to give it to Your Majesty in person. (To be continued.) )
