The sudden appearance of the Leopard in the Moroccan port of Agadir surprised the French. What surprised them even more was that the gunboat, which was only more than a thousand tons, also aimed its guns at the French troops on the shore.

Such a bold move by the Leopard stunned the French troops on the shore.

And the leopard's behavior may also be related to its perennial dealings with small countries, which is a hegemonic habit and a little difficult to distinguish the situation.

However, the audacity of the Leopard acted in this way, but the French troops in Agadir were sober-minded, and did not react excessively, but informed their superiors of the Leopard's actions, and the Paris side was soon received.

The French side was furious about the appearance of German warships in Morocco. It was a great shame for France that Germany dared to directly challenge France's colonial interests with only a small gunboat, and then the German side sent a telegram asking the French to respect German interests in Morocco.

The French regarded the telegram from Germany, and the gunboat that appeared in Morocco, as a diplomatic blackmail on the part of Germany, which the proud French could not accept, or else France would take a step back every time Germany blackmailed it, which would have dealt a serious blow to the national enthusiasm of the French.

So this time the attitude of France was unusually tough, directly rejecting the demands of the Germans, and instead speeding up the operation in Morocco.

Discontent also erupted on the part of the Germans with the fact that the French did not pay any attention to their attitude. Kaiser Wilhelm II considered the French to be an insult to Germany by ignoring German proposals.

To this end, the Germans took the situation even further and mobilized the main forces of the army to the French border.

Not to be outdone, the French were also not far behind in response to the hostile moves of the German side, and also moved the main forces of the army to the border adjacent to Germany. In addition to this, France went a step further and announced a military mobilization.

The actions of the French further stimulated Germany, and in the face of the French military mobilization order, the German side was also not far behind, and also announced military mobilization. In addition, not only military mobilization, but also the German General Staff has come up with a battle plan and is ready to issue it.

At this time, Germany and France did not give an inch and were about to fight, which made the rest of Europe shocked, and other countries made statements one after another, hoping that the two countries could calm the dispute and avoid the outbreak of war in Europe.

However, there is one country missing from this peace speech, and that is the British Empire. It is inconceivable that the British Empire, as the hegemon of the world, did not speak at such a dangerous time.

In fact, this is not surprising, because this time France was able to do so inch, and there was the support of the British Empire behind it.

The Chief of the General Staff of the British Army visited France and inspected the Franco-German border, and the British fleet received a telegram from the Admiralty asking them to prepare for battle.

It is precisely with the support of the British that the French are so confident to stand up to Germany.

The Germans were under great pressure to join forces with Britain and France, and they were in desperate need of support from their allies

An airship with the coat of arms of the Savoy family slowly descended to the ground tarmac, where many people were already waiting.

Among these waiters, Foreign Secretary Wichtl is the core of these people. A halfway diplomat, he was born into a family of bankers in Stuttgart, fought in the Franco-Prussian War, and later studied law. It was not until 1879 that he entered the diplomatic service.

However, although he entered the diplomatic field late, he had a good resume, and in 1898 he was appointed minister to Bucharest and later to Istanbul to support the construction of the Baghdad Railway.

In addition, His Excellency Wichtel opposed the maintenance of naval balance of power with Great Britain and advocated the firm establishment of German leadership in Europe through the Triple Alliance. He was recognised by the new Prime Minister Holweg in 1910 and appointed Foreign Secretary.

And his mission this time was to welcome the Italian delegation led by Carlo, this time the Italian delegation took a special tool, which came by airship.

This time, Carlo made a surprise visit to Berlin, nominally to mediate the dispute between Germany and France in Morocco, but in essence he had another purpose.

Whatever the purpose, at least for now, peaceful rhetoric is needed.

"Your Majesty, you can get off the boat."

The captain of the guard's words made Carlo stop thinking, and he smiled towards the hatch. As soon as he stepped out of the hatch, the welcome music and cheers rang out, and Vichitle, who was in charge of greeting him, walked briskly towards him.

"Welcome to Berlin with His Majesty King Carlo."

"You're welcome Your Excellency Weichtel, I'm here for peace."

Then the two briefly exchanged two words, then took a photo together, and then accepted an interview with reporters.

"Your Majesty Carlo, I heard that you are visiting Berlin this time to mediate the current tension between Germany and France?"

The reporter's question seemed to the other reporters to be nothing new at all, and it was a waste of this opportunity, but Carlo did not care about what the other reporters thought, he liked it very much.

"Yes, I came to Berlin this time with great sincerity, for the sake of peace in Europe, so I came to Berlin, because I know that the Germans are the most reasonable."

These words made the eyes of the reporters at the scene light up, and they all raised their hands to get a chance to ask questions.

Unfortunately, after answering only one question, the King of Carlo got into the car and left at the invitation of Foreign Secretary Vechtel. He was joined by the delegation of Italy.

"Your Majesty, your remarks are intended to cause a lot of controversy." Wechtel, who was in the same car as Carlo, spoke and laughed as if in a mediating atmosphere.

"What does it matter, I'm telling the truth, for us in Italy, the credibility of your country can be trusted."

Carlo's words, which sound like a flattery of Germany, are actually true. But there is one thing that Italy recognizes, at least more than France, that Germany can be trusted.

"Thank you to His Majesty Karlo for believing in us Germany. How about giving your members a break today, and how about we arrange a meeting tomorrow? ”

"Yes, but I want to see William as soon as possible, and the purpose of my visit this time must be clear to you."

"Okay, I'll let His Majesty the Emperor know when I get back."

Of course, Vechtel knew what Carlo was saying.

This man did not come with peace sincerity, but wanted to break it up.

At a time when tensions in Europe are on the verge of eruption, Carlo is unsure whether the war will advance under his own stirring.

If it is ahead of schedule, then what should Italy do, and how to plan for the best interests of this, this is the question that he has been thinking about for more than ten days.

After thinking about it, Carlo realized that changing jobs was not a good choice.

Of course, if Italy wants to join, then Carlo will have to decide on a few requirements before negotiating other conditions. Otherwise, my efforts in Italy all these years would not have been in vain. This is also the reason why he came in person, I can't be sure of some of Germany's attitudes, how dare Italy bet at will, or the high-risk German side.

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
