Chapter 269 Possible alliances after 20 years (1800
Qin Zhiyuan has never treated anyone as a fool, especially the current elites like Crown Prince William who have received elite education since childhood.
What Qin Zhiyuan relies on is beyond the vision of everyone in this era.
If time-travelers must have a golden finger, then Qin Zhiyuan’s golden finger is a vision that transcends this era.
Everything Qin Zhiyuan did on Corsica, including the hugely expensive construction and immigration at all costs, was for one year, ten years, or even twenty years later.
Before U.S. President Wilson proposed the concept of national autonomy, Qin Zhiyuan's behavior seemed a bit confusing to many people. They did not understand why Qin Zhiyuan did what he did.
Of course, this does not include those who look at Qin Zhiyuan through colored glasses.
In the eyes of those who have a predetermined position, no matter what Qin Zhiyuan does, it is wrong. It would be logical if Qin Zhiyuan never appeared.
But no matter in any era, there is no shortage of smart people. For example, US President Wilson will propose the Fourteen Principles of Peaceful Coexistence next year even if Qin Zhiyuan does not show up. Crown Prince William is not stupid either. He may not know what Qin Zhiyuan wants.
What to do, but there must be doubts.
If one day, Corsica is all Chinese, or all people are loyal to you, then there will be a question mark as to whether Corsica is French territory. Crown Prince William casually asked.
The reason why the Germans launched the world war was because Britain and France could not satisfy the Germans' colonial demands, which was tantamount to demanding a new carving up of the colonies around the world. Therefore, the Germans have always been very sensitive to colonies, and maybe this is also the case within the German government.
plan.
You are thinking too far. I just want the troops to fight with peace of mind and provide a stable living environment for their families. As for what will happen in the future, who knows. At least for now, the British and French have the right to speak.
.Qin Zhiyuan did not comment.
Talking to smart people, it goes without saying that because of the hostile relationship between Germany, Britain and France, Qin Zhiyuan believed that even if Crown Prince William could guess Qin Zhiyuan's intentions, Crown Prince William would not remind the French.
For Germany, the more chaotic France is, the better.
People with foresight never focus on the tip of their nose. As you said, who can say for sure what will happen in a few decades? Crown Prince William sighed quietly.
For Crown Prince William, if he cannot defeat Qin Zhiyuan on the battlefield, then it would be good to sow discord between Qin Zhiyuan and the French government. Since last night, Crown Prince William has been deliberately or unintentionally sowing discord.
From a development perspective, it would indeed be unfair if the whole world was subordinated to one or two countries. Qin Zhiyuan does not mind Crown Prince William's provocation, because if possible, Qin Zhiyuan would also like to provoke Crown Prince William's ambitions.
You must know that Crown Prince William is now resistant to war because he sees no hope, and is a so-called anti-war person.
If Crown Prince William is smart enough, Qin Zhiyuan does not mind providing help to Crown Prince William. The Germans want to obtain colonies where they can dump their products, and Qin Zhiyuan hopes that the Chinese nation can rise again. Qin Zhiyuan and Crown Prince William actually have two common enemies.
British and French.
In other words, the world is so big and there are so many resources. If the British and French get more, other countries will definitely get less. This distribution ratio should not be determined according to tradition;
Determined according to national strength.
So how are you going to change this situation? Crown Prince William was very interested in Qin Zhiyuan's thoughts. He even spoke a little unabashedly. When he saw Qin Zhiyuan's eyebrows raised and wanted to refute, Crown Prince William spoke again: Don't deny it in a hurry.
You are working for the French. We are still enemies, but our two countries have common aspirations. You cannot refute this unless you are not a nationalist.
The word nationalism was an expression of patriotism during World War I, and it was a complimentary word.
Historically, the Germans and the Chinese have cooperated more than fought. Since the Qing Dynasty, the Germans and the Chinese have had close military cooperation. The weapons chosen by the Qing troops at that time were basically German. Even the Qing Dynasty
When Zhiyuan first joined the Foreign Legion, the small weapons he chose were also German. Now they have added some British-made Lewis machine guns and Mills grenades, as well as French-made tanks and artillery.
Of course, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Qin Zhiyuan brought up Churchill's famous quote from World War II.
That's right, so you will also pay attention to your national interests. Crown Prince William's eyes are astonishingly bright.
Who can say accurately about the future? Qin Zhiyuan cannot promise anything easily.
At that moment, Qin Zhiyuan suddenly thought of a question.
Crown Prince William is not the only smart person in this world. Qin Zhiyuan's current actions have fallen into the eyes of many caring people and may have aroused suspicion. If Qin Zhiyuan does not do something, perhaps there will be some attacks against Qin Zhiyuan.
Some conspiracy.
Fireworks always die at the most brilliant moment. Qin Zhiyuan has now defeated Crown Prince William's army, and his military career seems to have reached its peak. So, when Qin Zhiyuan is at his most prosperous, it is also when Qin Zhiyuan is at his most dangerous.
Yes, both the Germans and the Chinese are the most patient people. We don’t need to solve it overnight. We must have enough patience on this issue. Crown Prince William does not force it.
As long as there is a possibility of potential cooperation, Crown Prince William is just 35 years old this year and he still has a lot of time.
At the beginning of the World War, the Germans chose the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Kingdom of Bulgaria, Italy and other countries as allies. The result was disappointing after the war started. The Italians habitually betrayed their alliances, and the Ottoman Empire was defeated by the British.
Bulgaria had too much to take care of itself, Austria-Hungary was powerless, and the seemingly strong Allies could only rely on the Germans for support.
Crown Prince William was extremely disappointed with these pig teammates. Because he saw no hope of victory, he frequently suggested negotiations with the Allies, earning him a reputation as an anti-war person.
In fact, as Crown Prince William, the term anti-war person is the biggest insult to him.
With this war, it is no longer possible to break the global hegemony of the British and French. Crown Prince William can only look to the future. If Qin Zhiyuan can show certain potential now, then Crown Prince William does not mind providing help to Qin Zhiyuan.
This is also the reason why Crown Prince William has been almost inseparable from Qin Zhiyuan these two days.
