Jagged Germany

  Next, William II and Marshal Count Tirpitz talked about the current international situation, while Qin Tian listened quietly from the side. Although, as a later generation, he is very clear about the direction of history. But it is obviously impossible for him to tell William II and Marshal Count Tirpitz everything. In that case, the two would definitely regard him as a monster.

  In addition, having the opportunity to listen to the conversation between William II and Marshal Count Tirpitz means that Qin Tian has already been recognized by the two. You know, except for Crown Prince William who had this qualification because of his own status, none of William II's other sons had this qualification. This is already a great improvement for Qin Tian.

  Of course, Qin Tian knew that it would be very difficult to replace Crown Prince William. He also basically no longer harbors such illusions. However, it would be great if he could enhance his voice in state affairs.

  From the conversation between Wilhelm II and Marshal Count Tirpitz, Qin Tian knew that Germany is now facing a very severe external environment. After the Morocco crisis, Britain, France, and Russia are getting closer and closer. Although they have not yet concluded a real alliance contract, this is foreseeable. Even, the Three Kingdoms have been suppressing Germany from now on.

   This also made William II gradually began to give up his illusions about Britain and began to increase investment in the navy. Otherwise, William II may still refuse to be an enemy of Britain.

   "Your Excellency Marshal, once Britain, France and Russia actually conclude a treaty, we will be under greater pressure." William II frowned tightly. Today's Germany is undoubtedly a high-speed train that can't stop at all. If the blockade of Britain, France and Russia cannot be broken through, there may be only one final result, that is, the car crashes and people die.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Once the war starts, the empire will face great pressure. The combat effectiveness of the imperial army is the world's number one, there is no doubt about it. However, we may have to face two fronts. Once the imperial army cannot quickly defeat the If the opponent says it, the war will inevitably fall into a stalemate. At that time, I am afraid that we can only rely on the navy to reverse the situation. Therefore, we must strengthen the navy as much as possible and shorten the gap with the British navy as much as possible .” Marshal Earl Tirpitz said with a serious face.

  William II nodded. Although he believed in the combat effectiveness of the German Army, once the war started, they were very likely to win a brilliant victory again, just like the Franco-Prussian War more than 30 years ago. But he has to admit that the current world situation is completely different from what it was more than thirty years ago. The development of science and technology has brought earth-shaking changes to the combat effectiveness and combat methods of the army. It is probably not easy for the German Army to sweep the French like it did more than 30 years ago. Therefore, William II had to prepare for the worst. That is, once the army cannot defeat the enemy quickly, the navy must take on the responsibility of breaking the British sea blockade and ensuring that Germany's overseas trade lines are not cut off. Otherwise, there is probably only one way to wait for Germany, and that is to be dragged to death alive.

  Of course, William II still believes that if Germany can have a powerful navy, it may be able to directly force Britain not to join the war, so as to achieve the effect of defeating others without fighting. Without the great enemy of Britain, the pressure on Germany would naturally be much less. It is almost impossible for France and Russia to defeat Germany.

  If Qin Tian knew William II's thoughts, he would definitely say that the drawing is broken. In order to ensure their world dominance, how could the British allow Germany to defeat France and Russia and dominate the European continent? The policy implemented by the British has always been a continental balance policy. In other words, they will not allow a hegemon to emerge on the European continent. When a country is strong, they will win over other countries and besiege it. France, Russia, and now Germany were all victims of this policy of the British.

   "From now on, until the outbreak of the war, we will do our best to develop the navy. I hope that we will be able to win the next war concerning the fate of Germany!" William II sighed.

   "Your Majesty, we will definitely win." Marshal Earl Tirpitz was very firm.

"Father, there is no doubt that the British want to be our enemies, and even become the core of Britain, France and Russia. For this reason, we must use all means to weaken their strength. Apart from developing For armaments, other than the British, we need to use other methods." Qin Tian suggested.

   "Oscar, do you have any suggestions?" William II asked.

"Father, the reason why Britain is strong is because they have the most extensive colonies in the world. It is these colonies with an area dozens of times larger than the British mainland and a population more than ten times larger than the British mainland, which propped up the British Empire. However, we can also see that the British rule in the colonies is no longer so stable. India has broken out against British big business, and South Africa has also broken out two Boer Wars. Even now, local opposition to Britain There are many people who rule by people. If we can invest more in those people, I believe we will get very good benefits." Qin Tian said.

   "Well, this is a good way. Although it is impossible to pose any substantial threat to the United Kingdom, it is acceptable if it can weaken their strength and add obstacles to them." William II nodded.

"Father, in addition to the British colonies, the British mainland is not peaceful. Isn't the Irish always fighting for independence? If we support the independence of the Irish, once it succeeds, it will not only greatly benefit the Weakening the strength of the British will allow us to have a pro-German country next to the British. This will be very useful for us to defeat the British in the future. Even if the independence of the Irish fails, it will not be useful to us What kind of loss is just a loss of some funds. It can also weaken the strength of the British and make the Irish hate the UK even more. Their resistance will definitely continue. At that time, the British will naturally have a headache Already!" Qin Tian smiled.
