Chapter 1573 The Territory of the Sea

It seems that Frederick II is very clear about the dilemma he is facing now.

In fact, most of the nobles in all European countries have some blood ties, and some are even relatives.

For example, the current King George II of England is related to Frederick II today. George II took over the throne from his father George I, which is a great relationship thanks to him.

My father was the Elector of Hannover.

George I was not an Englishman, he could not even speak English, but a man who could not speak English inherited the throne of Britain, which was ridiculous, but that was the truth.

Later, during the Seven Years War, Britain was able to get along with Prussia, and it had a certain connection with this kind of kinship between them. After all, no one would hand over his back to a distrustful partner.

But there is such a connection between Frederick II and the British royal family. The Electors of Hanover and the Electors of Brandenburg are all one of the Electors of the Holy Roman Empire, not to mention Frederick II

The king of England, the electorate of Hanover, was also related to the king of England, so it was natural for them to get together.

However, Zeng Yunfeng can understand some of the worries raised by Frederick II. After all, in this era, some things are not just as simple as kinship?

There are conflicts between kings and kings, and between nobles and nobles, let alone other ones.

It can be seen from the internal struggles of the Holy Roman Empire itself that Prussia's snatch from Austria is a clear proof.

You should know that the royal family of Habsburg was somewhat related to several electorates of the Holy Roman Empire, and even the king was granted by others, but the king of Prussia, Frederick II, did not hesitate without hesitation

The man took Silesia from Austria's hands.

Therefore, relative relations are just a reason, and are used to make diplomatic breakthroughs between countries.

Judging from the current period of time, Frederick II's investment in Russia seems to have been wasted, and he has not achieved any significant results, even a little bit of a shot in the foot.

But Zeng Yunfeng knew very well what kind of person Catherine would become in the future? It can be said that she was the most feared monarch on the entire European continent before Napoleon took the stage of history, and also a female monarch.

Her ability to be named the Great Emperor is enough to show how shocking the impact she has had on Europe, Central Asia, Crimea and other regions in this current era.

From the people like Caterina and Frederick II, we can see that the Prussian Kingdom attaches great importance to the education of its children and descendants, even Caterina, a married woman

All of them have achieved extraordinary achievements afterwards.

And Caterina's grandson, later Alexander I, was the emperor who defeated Napoleon.

From this point of view, Princess Sophie, who has a great relationship with Frederick II, is obviously also an amazing person. She is inseparable from the family education of this duke, and of course it is more of a personal future.

efforts.

In fact, Zeng Yunfeng really wanted to get in touch with Sophie, but after thinking about Gris Allen's relationship with her, he naturally gave up this idea.

You may know whether Caterina's son was born with her husband Peter, but it may be obvious that Gris Allen has a great chance.

From this point of view, in the deep palace of Russia, Yekaterina was obviously suffering some major changes in her life and life, and this major change brought about the entire Russian Empire.

and the changes in the situation on the entire European continent.

Zeng Yunfeng shook his head on the other side and said straight to the point: "Your Highness, in my opinion, instead of discussing these things that do not have much effect on you and me and are somewhat empty, it is better to have something practical."

Frederick II immediately sat upright, "So you want to talk to me about something that might be more practical?"

"Your Highness, you and I are very clear about the current situation of Prussia. Even if Prussia has gained a certain position in the entire European continent, Prussia's overseas expansion is still blank. However, there are many colonial territories waiting for various countries to explore, but Prussia is still a waste of its development.

Because of the sea, I was completely stuck in the Baltic Sea. From this perspective, I think what Prussia hopes to go out of this area and go further."

The king of the Prussian Kingdom, Frederick II, tapped his right hand gently on the table, and was obviously thinking about Zeng Yunfeng's words.

"Then what exactly can you bring to me?"

Zeng Yunfeng smiled and said, "A chance!"

"A chance?" Frederick II was a little confused.

"Yes, it's an opportunity. Since Portugal and Spain divided the world, the colonies have been developed very quickly. But then Britain and France have joined the corresponding ranks. The Netherlands is not showing any weakness, and the speed is faster. There are also unknown places in the world.

Less and fewer."

"But it is difficult for countries like Prussia to get a hand in the world, which is a pity."

"You can only watch the re-dividing of the colonies in the world by Britain and France, and you can only stay in the European continent. Your Highness, don't you think about it at all?"

Frederick II sighed, "But you said just now that our shipping is stuck in the Baltic Sea, and it is not so free to explore it. The mess of the Holy Roman Empire alone is enough for me to worry about."

It is undeniable that West Prussia and South Prussia, coupled with the land of New East Prussia in the future, is very coveted. Basically, these lands, especially West Prussia and South Prussia, plus New East Prussia and Silesia

These territories were taken back by Frederick II in front of him from various countries, and they all rely on war.

However, war does not mean that there is no price at all, but will bring a lot of trouble and suffering to the people of the country.

Since Brandenburg obtained jurisdiction in East Prussia, many things have followed.

If Prussia wants to grow, it is absolutely inseparable from its strong industrial foundation and strong military power. It can be said that Prussia is almost a country with a very high conscription rate in Europe, but thanks to the former Teutonic Knights, they were in the army.

The construction of aspects is far beyond that of several countries around them.

This is why their Prussia was able to continuously invade other people's territory on the continent, and its territory gradually expanded.

But this does not mean that Prussia can achieve the same results at sea today.
