The Second Reich: Beginning with the Prince of Prussia

When the captain of the Baden received this order, he looked a little incredulous, and the expulsion of the battleship on the high seas on which the sun never sets was likely to cause a diplomatic dispute between the two countries.

It's just that just when he was still hesitating, Andrews's second order came!

"Execute the order!".

The captain had no choice but to carry out the order as Andrews asked.

He had already made up his mind that if this matter really caused an international dispute, he would definitely shift all the blame to Prince Andrews when he returned.

Seeing the Baden make an expulsion action, the sun never sets on the battleship's side immediately coaxed.

Originally, they were at a loss, and the strength of the two sides was not at the same level, so they couldn't get any advantage if they really started.

So they turned around and walked away, anyway, from the trajectory of the German ship just now, it can be judged that the other party really went out to carry out training, and did not get close to the mainland where the sun does not set, to reconnoiter or sabotage or other intentions.

Although they were also interested in the situation of Hans's training in close proximity, it was clear that they could not do so now.

The other party is already vigilant, and the probability of being discovered if he continues to track is very high, anyway, there will be opportunities in the future, so he is not in a hurry to meet for a while.

Seeing that the battleship on which the sun never set actually left so obediently, the captain of the Baden looked a little incredulous.

Is this still the royal navy he knows who is domineering and unreasonable at sea?

Tirpitz on the sidelines was a little disdainful of the sun's performance

"Hmph, it's just a group of soft eggs who are afraid of the hard, if the strength of the Imperial Navy is as strong as the Royal Navy where the sun never sets, they don't even dare to get close to reconnoitre!"

As soon as he thought of this, the young major couldn't help but have an ideal in his heart, the dream of building the world's first navy for the empire!

......

After sailing at sea for half a month, Andrews and his party finally arrived in North America.

When he got off the boat and landed ashore, Andrews let out a soft breath.

It's terrible to cross the Atlantic by boat, and the harsh sea conditions in the Atlantic really don't make a good impression.

But before the planes appeared, the only way to travel between the two places was by boat, and such a bad experience that he would have to do it again when he returned.

This gave Andrews an idea: it would be nice if he could make something like an airplane or an airship!

It just so happens that the market in North America is large enough, and the people are also very wealthy, so if you get these things out, there will definitely be no shortage of markets.

Perhaps, this is a good opportunity to make a fortune?

Andrews couldn't help but think that there was more important business to attend to at the moment, so he made a mental note of it.

......

The Eagle Sauce has learned of Andrews and others' visits, and President Cleveland attaches great importance to this matter and specially sends Secretary of State Francis to meet with Andrews.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Guowuqing!".

Before he came, Andrews had already gathered information about the state secretary.

Eagle sauce does not have a foreign education minister, and the secretary of state is the official in charge of foreign affairs.

This Francis is a man of average ability and a relatively gentle personality.

He works hard and is conscientious and responsible, but he has not made much achievements in diplomacy during his tenure, and even a little inaction, which has made Eagle Sauce miss many great opportunities.

If there is a more capable secretary of state, maybe the time for Ying-chan to intervene in international affairs will be decades earlier!

Francis is a confidant of President Cleveland, and although he himself has a poor diplomatic strategic vision, he is very thorough in carrying out the president's orders.

President Eagle Sauce attaches great importance to Andrews's visit this time, and Bismarck has already sent him a telegram before, vaguely revealing some thoughts of wanting to form an alliance with Eagle Sauce.

This kind of thing is exactly what President Cleveland wants, and since he took office, he has been trying to adjust Eagle Sauce's diplomatic strategy.

Since the Civil War, Eagle Sauce's economy and industry have developed rapidly, and the country's strength has developed considerably.

But they don't have much presence internationally, which is completely out of line with their economic power.

Because of its late start, it failed to catch up with the frenzy of the great powers to carve up the world, and Eagle Sauce, like the Second Empire, did not have many colonies.

Seeing that the sun never sets and Gaul makes a lot of money in the overseas colonies, and the sun never sets is relying on the support of the overseas colonies, with the territory of a small island, it has achieved the great cause of dominating the world, which makes the people of Eagle Sauce envious.

But when I think of being the same power, why does the sun not set on people to occupy so many colonies, but I have nothing?

This makes Eagle Sauce very unhappy, and they desperately want to change the status quo.

It would be better to re-divide the world and determine the international status of each country and the size of its colonies from a position of strength.

Why can he be the hegemon of the world if the sun never sets, but I can't be the eagle sauce?

For this mentality of the Eagle Sauce Man, Andrews knows it very well in his heart.

The reason why he agreed to go to North America to contact Eagle Sauce was because he knew that Eagle Sauce people were dissatisfied with the status quo.

Historically, if Wilhelm II hadn't been able to hold his breath and Europe had taken the lead in breaking out a world war, Eagle Sauce would have had trouble not setting the sun.

As a result, Sunset and Eagle-chan, who were supposed to be enemies, actually became allies and participated in the war against the Second Empire together.

This has to be said to be a major failure of Wilhelm II's diplomatic strategy!

The Sunset People can take advantage of Eagle Sauce's eagerness to change the world and use their power to suppress the Second Empire.

Couldn't the Second Empire take the lead in wooing Eagle Sauce and use the strength of Eagle Sauce to deal with the sun that never sets?

As the saying goes, I can go!

Wooing Eagle Sauce and provoking the contradiction between them and the sun never sets is a highly feasible diplomatic strategy.

And if it succeeds, the diplomatic and security landscape of the Second Reich will be greatly changed!

......

Francis was very polite to Andrews and the others, knowing that they were tired of traveling, so while taking the people to the star hotel to settle down, he postponed the reception dinner prepared for them.

Wait until the next day, when they have rested and recovered, and then invite them to participate.

Andrews naturally has no objection to this, and from these arrangements of the other party, he can see that the other party attaches great importance to it, and even looks up a little.

The eagle sauce of this era is not the world hegemon of later generations, but an emerging country with little international status.

Eagle sauce itself started relatively late, and it is a country of immigrants and has no traditional culture of its own.

This made them look up in front of the Europeans, and the old Europeans looked down on them in their hearts, thinking that they were the land of barbarians.

In addition, Eagle Sauce of this era is very fond of copying the advanced technology of European countries, and does not pay royalties, and the products produced are known for their cheap and low quality.

This in turn led to an even worse reputation, which can be described as infamous.

In this case, the Eagle Sauce people themselves looked down on themselves and envied the advanced civilization and technology of Europe.

As for the descendants of those immigrants, they have climbed to prosper, proud of their ancestral country.

For example, although it is also an English-speaking country, on the side of Eagle Sauce, the English colloquial language is extremely popular in high society.

Among the aristocracy, people took pride in learning and imitating the pronunciation of British English and despised those who spoke American English.
