Chapter 202: Foresight

"Unexpectedly, you came to Berlin just after Christmas." Looking at Prince Ruprecht in front of him, Bismarck's face showed a hint of curiosity. He wanted to know very much now, what would make the Bavarian prince give up the business of Rijindoujin and come to Berlin to visit him, an old man who is already dying. I haven't done anything that affects Bavaria's interests recently. General matters can be handled by the representative of Bavaria in Berlin. Prince Ruprecht does not need to come in person?

   "I heard that your health is not good. I have come to see you. Some gifts are not respectful. I hope you can laugh at it." Not to mention the prince who came up to give gifts. Of course, there is not much utilitarianism in this, because it will not take long for Bismarck to help the prince. Although the current Bismarck does not seem to die in 1898 like in history, he will soon be in the dying year. Will bid farewell to the rights center and become an old nobleman who is at home.

"Hehe, welcome. Before leaving office, it is very gratifying that important members of the second family of the empire can still think of me as an old man. I have been fighting for the unity of Prussia all my life, but this time is still a prince from the southern kingdom. Here, it's really good fortune to trick people. Tell me, if you can help me, I will try my best to help." Bismarck said with a smile. Then he let the prince into his study.

   "The sky is going to change." The prince said after taking a sip of the black tea from the attendant.

"You mean the Far East? That's it. The Spanish Empire is about to lose its last afterglow. From then on, Spain will become a fourth-rate country, and even worse than Belgium to some extent." Bismarck was taken aback for a moment, and then said calmly: "Say Get up, this time the sky has changed and you are pushing your hands behind. The sudden emergence of the Japanese Navy has faintly formed an advantage against the Russians. Is this a revenge against the Russians?"

  "Are you really incomprehensible or fake?" The prince asked rhetorically instead of answering.

   "I really don't understand, so I don't want to intervene in the Far East, but it looks like you really want to make some achievements in the Far East." Bismarck said.

  "This is an opportunity! An opportunity to make the empire change the current passive situation. We naturally can't give up." The prince said with a smile.

"Really? Why do I see the danger, a danger that makes the empire and the most powerful country in the world evil? The British have decided to support Japan. We have no territorial demands in the Far East, so we should be neutral. Why should we fall into it? In this quagmire? Britain and Japan on one side, and the United States on the other. We can't afford to offend, and from the current situation, the Americans can't compete with Britain and Japan in the Far East. Why should we stand on the side of the losers?" Bismarck Some puzzled said.

"The reason is very simple. I want Americans to hate Japanese for a lifetime! Hate the British for 20 years! Only an unforgettable failure can make it impossible for Americans to sit on the same table with Britain and Japan! And we want to give Americans Create conditions for failure!" The prince’s calm words made Bismarck's back chill. He suddenly realized that he didn’t know the prince. A shrewd businessman and nobleman couldn’t describe the prince in front of him. He could even be called a superb. Conspiracy!

  "Did you start preparing a long time ago? How long did you prepare? One year or two years? How can you determine that the British will definitely help Japan? How can you determine that the United States will definitely lose?" Bismarck asked.

"If I said that I started preparations before the outbreak of the Qing-Japanese War, do you believe it? The British wanted to support Japan against Russia. Then Japan must be developed. Unfortunately, a series of accidental or inevitable events happened during the Sino-Japanese War Japan cannot obtain the resources it needs for development. So what should we do for Japan, a backward country? Naturally, continue to look for a prey."

"The only suitable prey in the Far East is the Philippines. Others are either tasteless or not something Japan can provoke. But it is a pity that the Americans also have ideas about the Philippines. If that is the case, let the two sides fight well. The UK will not. Turning his watchdog in the Far East into a toothless dog, so he will support Japan. This will lead to grudges with the United States. This grudge will last a long time."

  "Which is more worth fighting for in Britain or the United States? You seem to value America more." Bismarck said.

"The British Empire has reached its peak, but island nations lacking insight will eventually be replaced by new empires. The United States has population, resources, and land. They have hopes of becoming a new top powerhouse than Germany. It's just dormant before the outbreak."

"Of course, more importantly, Britain and Germany are too close. Some of our contradictions are irreconcilable. With the development of the empire, there will be conflicts between Britain and Germany sooner or later. Naval armament is only one aspect, and more importantly, the British. We are too strong now in the mainland equilibrium policy. In the future, even Russia and France will not be able to fight against Germany. This is absolutely not allowed by the United Kingdom. There is a strategy called distant relations and close attacks. Since Britain belongs to the kind of country that will eventually fall out, Then we naturally have to choose other friends." The prince said.

"But I don’t think that if we conflict with the United Kingdom, the United States will be on our side. Americans generally don’t care much about things outside the American continent~www.wuxiaspot.com~ let alone getting involved in peace. There is a dispute between the big powers, like this time the Americans only chose the weakest opponent." Bismarck shook his head.

"Still on our side? I mean that the United States can be neutral and not participate in the First World War! As long as the United States does not participate in the war, destroy Russia on the eastern front, and then the western front ends in a decent way." The prince said in his heart. , Of course, will never say it.

"But it is finally good for Germany to make the United States and Britain feud. The more contradictions among other big countries, the more room we can operate. Moreover, Russia is on the side of the Americans this time. The French will at least prefer Russia, and the United Kingdom is unprecedented. Isolate, we don’t have to show good to the UK at this time, right? Even if we help the UK, they will still not give us equal benefits. Whether it is during the Qing-Japanese War or the conflict between Britain and Boer now, they threaten us. Some things cannot be said, but they can be done."

In fact, it is not a big deal to provide supplies to the American fleet from afar. After all, in history, when the Russian Second Pacific Fleet was killed from Europe to the Far East, it was the coal provided by the Germans. This matter is also said by the British. Nothing. But it is a great help for the Americans. Of course, the prince does not care whether the Americans will be grateful to the prince. The key is to break the head of the United States and Japan!
