Several people looked at Tolbek in surprise, and all looked at the Dutch Prime Minister in surprise.
Heisbert Von asked in surprise: "What did the Prime Minister mean?"
Tolbeck sighed: "These ethnic groups actually don't have their own backers.
Why Seward has been able to rise so fast in the past few years, it is clear to think about it, the Kingdom of Prussia is in it, and it has contributed a lot.
It is said that Seward was born in a wealthy family who immigrated from Berlin. His father was a guard officer of Frederick William II of the Kingdom of Prussia, and he immigrated to North America at the end of the 18th century after he retired.
Also, Seward had a close relationship with Bismarck, the prime minister of Prussia, a powerful European country."
Prussian Prime Minister Bismarck?
Suddenly, Haysbert Feng's confusion in the past was all over in an instant.
"So I was surprised that Seward persuaded the Russian Empire to help Milliken resist the British invasion. It turned out that it took a long time for Prussia to work behind the scenes.
Also, I will talk about why Prussia's economy is developing so fast. It turns out that the technology from Milliken's side has been continuously imported into the past.
Also, I'm just talking about why Germans are growing so fast here. I want to have the backing of the emerging power of Prussia, one of the five major countries in Europe. It's no wonder that Germans, who didn't like to participate in politics, have been active in politics in the past ten years. Incomparable, and the rise of Germans is rapid.
All of this is for a reason. "
Heisbert Von sighed and expressed his thoughts one by one.
All the top figures in the Netherlands were present, so he did not hold back.
William IV said quietly: "Bismarck's ideas are often wild and imaginative, and he always does things after thinking, and if he doesn't make a move, he will hit the target and hit the bullseye.
When we face him, we need to be careful and careful, but don't be fascinated by the current Dutch victory. "
The power of Bismarck, some people present may not have seen it yet. After all, the many actions made by Bismarck in the previous life became famous as the Jagged Prime Minister. At this time, it is only a half-finished product. After setting a trap to deplete the strength of other countries in the German Confederation, it took only seven weeks to defeat the Austrian Empire, and then quickly annexed the entire German Confederation. All these were completed in less than three years.
Although the shock it brought, it was also drowned out by the North American War and the Balkan War, so it was not so obvious.
Not enough, if the Kingdom of Prussia, which began in 1870, defeated the French Empire in a fair and open manner, and established the hegemony of the Central and Western European continents in one fell swoop, he will completely establish his position.
If William IV did not remind him, it is very likely that several people would look down on each other because of this, and they would suffer in the end.
Tolbek said eagerly: "Your Majesty has always praised the other party. After Bismarck was elected Prime Minister in 1861, he has indeed completed the tasks that Prussia had not completed for decades before, in the past 6 years. Your Majesty, Prussia has no ambition. Little, Bismarck can also see that he is a person who is unwilling to be lonely. This time the action of the United States of America, I think, he intends to hide behind the scenes and control the development of the situation.
And knowing that we are paying close attention to it, Seward has been repeatedly provoked. This is obviously intentional. This is a provocation and a temptation.
We can't go back, if we do, it's going to come back to Europe."
Several people in William IV agreed with this statement.
In particular, William IV felt the deepest feeling. What Tolbeck said is quite good. Prussia is currently merging and integrating the small German Confederation. It has not yet been digested, so it will be quiet like a poisonous snake. Not moving, but the snake head was raised and looked around, looking for the next target to attack, ready to wait for the snake swallowing elephant just completed in the body to be digested before attacking again.
Intervening in the Commonwealth of Millikin was just a foreshadowing by Bismarck intentionally or unintentionally. William IV did not believe that Bismarck would do useless work. Obviously, this had a purpose. Perhaps as Tolbeck said, this was a provocation of temptation, and the purpose was Look at the reaction of the Netherlands, and then make the next move, maybe
Suddenly, William IV thought of a possibility and couldn't help shaking.
The others looked at him in disbelief.
"Cough cough cough" William IV pretended to be calm: "I know what you are worried about, don't worry, although Bismarck is very daring, the Netherlands is not Denmark, so give him what you want.
However, everyone's worries are not unreasonable, so we need to make some preparations for this. "
Tolbek and William IV looked at each other, William IV saw the heat of each other, and they cooperated for many years, William IV saw it, this was the will to fight.
He smiled bitterly in his heart, but he did not refuse, so he nodded.
A smile appeared on Tolbeck's face.
Dutch Prime Minister Vs Prussian Prime Minister?
Chessboard or the Commonwealth of Millikin?
William IV secretly said: Bismarck, Bismarck, my Prime Minister is accepting your challenge. I just don't know if the situation in North America will tremble because of your gladiatorial fight.
When William IV thought of this, he was very much looking forward to it.
When William IV discussed the situation in North America, and then extended to beware of Prussian Prime Minister Bismarck, Bismarck in Berlin was also talking about the layout of North America.
"Prime Minister, now that Seward has obtained Lincoln's approval, he has promised that in the next presidential election, Seward will be the presidential elector and Washburne will be the vice president, but I don't understand why they should join forces. Irish, the most populous ethnic group, but not Dutch?"
It was his working ally and private friend Mao Qi, Chief of General Staff.
The two have known each other for more than 30 years. It can be said that it is not bad to share weal and woe. A military rookie and a political star~www.mtlnovel.com~ have all the way to the current kingdom pillar, and it can be said that they have reached their current status with mutual support.
Of course, Mo Qi used to be the main one, but now it is a translocation, and Bismarck has become the main seat between the two.
But neither of them cared. After all, neither of them were ordinary people. Leveraging on strength and jealousy was the difference between a wise person and a foolish person.
Bismarck maintained his consistent sternness: "The Irish seem to be powerful, but they have no backers. Since the beginning of this century, the British have occupied the island of Ireland, and the British have been more wary of them.
They are as erratic as duckweeds without roots. Instead, they are of Dutch descent. The Kingdom of the Netherlands takes this very seriously. William IV and the Dutch government take good care of them. This is why Lincoln agreed to Seward so quickly.
Compared with other countries, the Kingdom of the Netherlands is currently involved in the countries that go deepest into the United States of America, so it is normal for the Irish to be disgusted. Therefore, what Lincoln saw was definitely not Seward's promise. In fact, it was Lincoln's Courtesy to our Kingdom of Prussia"
Bismarck suddenly broke the calm on his face and showed a smile, saying: "As expected of Lincoln, it is no wonder that the people who can lead the New Deal-Party and Communist Party to rise to power are not ordinary people with great courage. In the face of such a situation, I am I'm a little curious, how the Netherlands will respond."
