Invading Indochina

Years had passed since the German Empire and its Kaiser first had contact with the mighty Ming Dynasty, and during this time, trade flourished from west to east. In an act to deter the Japanese Empire from attacking the Chinese mainland, Berengar had agreed to supply the Ming with weapons that could sufficiently hold off the Japanese Army.

These weapons were the same that were supplied to the Joseon Army, and though they were not as advanced as what Japan or Germany was equipped with, they were more than enough to prevent the Japanese from subjecting the Ming Dynasty to their influence. 

By now, all the old Armored Frigates had been retrofitted and shipped to the Ming Navy, and though the Chinese were dependent on the munitions the Germans provided them, they had stockpiled enough that Japan did not dare invade Ming waters.
