Chapter 572: Missed Opportunity

Qin Tian succeeded to the throne and became Emperor William III, which was undoubtedly a sensational event for the whole world. After all, Germany is now faintly the number one power in the world. Their army was invincible on the battlefield, and the army of the Allied Powers was retreating steadily, in a panic. Once Germany wins this world war, they will be able to replace Britain and become the world hegemon.

Moreover, after Germany became the world hegemon, their strength is stronger than that of the former hegemony, the British Empire. When the British Empire dominated the world, its navy was of course the number one in the world. However, the Army is not flattered. But the German Empire is different. They will have the world's largest army, the world's largest navy, and the world's largest air force. Although the German Air Force has not yet been formed, it can only be regarded as an air force. But after the war, the formation of the Air Force will be inevitable. This would give Germany the strongest armed force in the world. Compared with Germany, other countries can only follow behind and catch up hard.

In terms of industrial strength, of course the United States is number one in the world. However, once Germany integrates the industrial strength of the entire Europe, it is just around the corner to surpass the United States. What's more, in terms of technological strength, Germany is not a star ahead of the United States. If the United States wants to compete with Germany for world hegemony, it will be very, very difficult.

It can be said that Germany dominates the world, and no one can stop it unless God shows up.

At Qin Tian's enthronement ceremony, the envoys of other countries stationed in Germany sent their blessings. Of course, most of their blessings are probably not sincere. No country is willing to see the rise of a superpower like Germany. This will seriously threaten their interests and suppress their living space.

However, when there is no other way, I have to send my blessings hypocritically.

If Qin Tian's enthronement ceremony was not too hasty, I am afraid that there will be more representatives from various countries attending the enthronement ceremony. And, the level is also higher. But because the situation is urgent now, and Qin Tian doesn't pay much attention to those empty etiquettes, that's why this enthronement ceremony is a bit hasty. But even so, no country can be underestimated. After all, the strength of the German Empire was achieved by their powerful army. Instead of relying on these so-called virtual etiquette. Only a strong army is the guarantee of everything.

The American Republic on the other side of the ocean is full of helplessness for the rise of the German Empire. Although, among the current world powers, the United States cannot be ranked at the top. However, their ambitions are not small. Originally, they wanted to take advantage of this world war to achieve leapfrog development. So that after the old European continent was smashed, they took the opportunity to rise and become the new hegemon of the world.

But Germany's performance in this world war surprised them. Germany defeated the opponent so quickly that they had no chance to intervene in this war. The great strength displayed by the German army also made them a little timid, afraid to participate in it, for fear that they would also be defeated. There is no way to do that. Who let the United States have a strong industrial strength, but no military strength to match it?

President Woodrow Wilson and Secretary of State Brian are talking at the White House. The content of their conversation was, of course, the enthronement of the new emperor of the German Empire.

"Your Excellency, Secretary of State, why do I have the feeling that I am already old? It is hard to imagine that a young man who is not yet 27 years old will become the emperor of the most powerful country in the world. Moreover, it is still the kind of person who monopolizes power Emperor," exclaimed President Woodrow Wilson.

Indeed, after Qin Tian became the emperor of Germany, he was too young. This undoubtedly looks too young in a wave of national leaders who are middle-aged or even elderly.

"Your Excellency, although the Kaiser is young, his behavior style is not immature at all! Thinking about it now, his development in the past few years can be called a legend." Secretary of State Bryan sighed.

President Woodrow Wilson nodded: "Indeed! His Majesty William III, it's not easy!"

As Qin Tian's performance became more and more dazzling, those things he did were also dug out, which naturally shocked the whole world. Especially those young people, they regard Qin Tian as the object of their worship. After all, it is undoubtedly commendable to be able to make such a career at such a young age.

When Qin Tian was young, his performance was not astonishing. However, before going to the Naval Academy to study, it seemed that he had suddenly opened up. Not only started a business and made a lot of profits, but also used these profits to help Germany develop its military strength, making the German navy quickly surpass the United Kingdom in just a few years and become the most powerful navy in the world. The strength of the German Army has also made great progress. This enabled the German army to quickly achieve major victories at sea and on the Eastern Front during the war, establishing the victory.

As Qin Tian personally commanded the troops to defeat the British and French allied forces on the Western Front, it further established Germany's victory. It is almost impossible for the Allies to reverse the situation. Even at this time, the United States joined the war, but it will not help. After all, they have used all their strength to support Britain and France. Even the capital ships in active service were all sold to the United Kingdom. This kind of support is not unprecedented, at least it is unprecedented.

If the navy of the Allied Powers can win the final battle at sea, there may still be a chance. If it fails this time, then everything is over. However, the U.S. government still does not have much confidence in the Allies. Because their enemies are too powerful.

"Originally, the outbreak of rebellion in Germany this time was a great opportunity for the Allied Powers to turn defeat into victory. But unfortunately, they failed to seize this opportunity. In other words, His Majesty William III's luck was so good that others had not yet reacted. By that time, the rebellion had already been suppressed. This made it impossible for other countries to intervene." President Woodrow Wilson said with emotion.

"Yes, Your Excellency. After suppressing the internal rebellion and winning the external war, no one can stop the rise of the German Empire. They will dominate the world for a long time to come. Other countries , It is simply impossible to compete with them." Secretary of State Bryan said.

President Woodrow Wilson nodded. He knew what Secretary of State Brian meant. Among those countries, the Republic of America was also included. From now on, their national policy needs to undergo some changes.
