The Rise of the Empire

What are the Germans here for? Just to express dissatisfaction with what Italy has done before! To protest, to warn the Italians by force! Be honest! Even the Navy, I can crush you with one hand! France knows it? I'm so taller than you that I don't know where to go. Didn't I still give up in front of my brother? And precisely because of this purpose, the high-level talks between the two sides were full of gunpowder immediately. \u003c/p\u003eThere were very few people in the high-level meeting, a total of 4 people, Prince Ruprecht represented the German government, Tirpitz represented the German navy, and corresponded to Italian Prime Minister Luigi and Duke Abuziru. \u003c/p\u003e"If I remember correctly, this is the first time since your country's navy has visited the Mediterranean with such a large fleet since its establishment, and the bloody smell and murderous look on Colonel Scheer's body makes people feel no peace breath." After a short greeting, Luigi said with a smile. \u003c/p\u003e "This is our fault, we forgot, in the Mediterranean, we have another important friend besides Austria-Hungary, since the signing of the Triple Alliance Treaty in 1887, it is really rude that we have not come to visit .” The prince’s answer also concealed a knife with a smile. \u003c/p\u003e"I once participated in a reception of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and one of my friends told me that Germany is now more and more fond of using the military to solve problems. They will keep a pistol by their side during negotiations. I still didn't quite believe it, but now I do." Luigi confronted. \u003c/p\u003e "When did you attend this reception?" the prince asked. \u003c/p\u003e"Just a month ago." While answering, Luigi muttered, the prince's jumping is too big... What is he doing with a nonsense thing he made up? \u003c/p\u003e "Well, let me guess who this person is. First, he can't be British, because the British are fighting the Boers for gold and diamonds in South Africa. After the negotiations broke down, the British decisively Pulled out the long sword in his hand."\u003c/p\u003e"It can't be the Russians, because the Russians have never put down the pistols in their hands, whether it is in negotiations or at other times, isn't it?"\u003c/p\u003e" It should not be the Americans and the Japanese, because they know such a saying, the words are gentle and the stick is in the hand. Whoever forgets this will suffer. The war in the Philippines has proved this.”\u003c/ p\u003e"It can't be the French, because the French squadron fought us 5 days later. France has given up the negotiation and picked up the pistol." The prince said with a smile. \u003c/p\u003e"Then he may be a diplomat of a small country. There are many countries in the world." Only then did Luigi realize that the prince in front of him was really difficult to deal with. I just complained about the arrogance of the Germans, but the other party told him that only with a big stick in your hand can you win respect, and there are no powerful countries in the world like this! \u003c/p\u003e"Has the Italian government paid attention to the opinions of small countries?" The prince asked with a smile. "Of course, strength and weakness are relative. To an elephant, a goat is nothing, but to a rabbit, a goat is a giant. I can understand it!"\u003c/p\u003e "When your country I also did the thing of placing a pistol in front of the negotiating table. At that time, a country called Abyssinia was sitting opposite Italy. At that time, Italy must have thought that it was a sure thing to win, but unfortunately, things backfired, didn’t they?”\u003c/ p\u003e"You are too much! This is an insult! An insult to the Kingdom of Italy! This is a provocation!" Luigi's deep voice was full of anger. In 1896, Italy lost to an African indigenous country (now Ethiopia), which made Italy a laughing stock of European countries.

\u003c/p\u003eAt that time, Bismarck once bitterly satirized the Italians, who came to Africa with a mouth full of decayed teeth and a great appetite. This is undoubtedly a mockery of the Italians' self-sufficiency! Less than 4 years have passed since this incident, and now that the prince speaks out about this incident, it is undoubtedly a slap in the face! \u003c/p\u003e "Don't talk about the Kingdom of Italy, you can't represent Italy, because you have an emperor and a parliament on your head, and I can't represent Germany, because the emperor of Germany is His Majesty William. We are talking informally. In On this private occasion, I just want to talk about my thoughts."\u003c/p\u003e"Of course, if it has to be related to national interests, then I think I have more ability to influence a country than you, can you It is doubtful to be re-elected Prime Minister of Italy, but I will eventually be crowned king! Even now, I can have considerable influence on Bavaria, Germany, and Austria-Hungary. You don’t deny this, do you?” The prince leaned back on the chair Lean back and relax your body as much as possible. \u003c/p\u003e"I know what you want to say. You want to say that Germany underestimated Italy too much and did not give Italy an equal status, which led to the limited value of the Triple Alliance, and even began to want to use the Triple Alliance as a bargaining chip. For greater good, is it not so?" asked the prince. \u003c/p\u003e"Italy, as a sovereign country, has the right to do what it thinks is right, and other countries should not interfere!" Luigi said word by word. \u003c/p\u003e"But this matter has affected Germany, so Germany can naturally make what it thinks is the right choice, including our threat to Portugal, including our visit. Italy can indeed do what it thinks is right, but the other side Therefore, Italy must also bear the reaction." The prince said seriously. \u003c/p\u003e "Your words have seriously damaged the relationship between the two countries. As you said, you must bear a series of consequences arising from it. This kind of remarks that may lead to the split of the Triple Alliance, even with your It's hard to bear such consequences, right?" The prince's arrogance exceeded Luigi's expectations. He originally thought that the Germans came here just to vent their dissatisfaction, and a couple of blows would be enough. Who knew that such a thing would happen now? \u003c/p\u003eDo you want to say that the Triple Alliance is important? It may not be very important to Italy, which is just a slap in the face, but at least it is useful. As long as the Triple Alliance exists, Austria-Hungary will not be able to cause substantial damage to Italy, which is also an ally. But if this alliance is gone, it will be hard to say.... \u003c/p\u003eAlthough Austria-Hungary is a broiler with a combat power of 10, Italy is a scum with a combat power of less than 5! If Austria-Hungary has an idea and Germany expresses its support, Italy will definitely suffer! As for France and England? Italy does not think that these two countries will do anything for Italy. \u003c/p\u003eThank you for the support of book friends 0773, Doudou's Happiness, Sea Boundary, bighill1982~~~, and book friends uffizi, Gneisenau, Lonely Little Seven, §Ai Ran§, Diving yy~~ ~!
