, the fastest update opening 1861: I just inherited the Dutch throne latest chapter!
In the eastern waters of the North-Sea in the northern part of the Atlantic Ocean, the Holland, which belongs to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, belongs to the flagship of the joint exercise of the Netherlands, Denmark and Sweden, including Jan Peter, the Minister of the Navy of the Royal Palace of the Netherlands, who are conducting the exercise.
He took the ambassadors of the British, Russian, Austrian and Prussian embassies to the Netherlands, except the Netherlands and other naval ministers, to watch today's exercise on the Holland.
Using binoculars to look at dozens of battleships under the rumbling sound of artillery fire, I have to say that it is indeed "pleasant"
Even such drills are very rare in the UK. Even in order to save the budget, the UK has never conducted such a large-scale exercise in terms of scale.
Because of this, Robbit, the British ambassador to the Netherlands, and Neil, the ambassador of the Austro-Hungarian Empire to the Netherlands, looked at each other, full of shock and vigilance.
Jan Peter took a panoramic view of the eyes of the two of them, and secretly said: "This is the effect that I want, but if they appear later, then you will feel the power of the Dutch Navy even more at that time."
At this time, the ambassador of Prussia to the Netherlands, Rae asked: "The Dutch navy is already enough to rank among the most powerful navies in the world."
He suddenly smiled provocatively at Taylor: "If I knew it was off the coast of Amsterdam, I would have thought I was in the British naval exercise in the Port of London."
When Jan Peter heard this, he suddenly felt a sudden shock in his heart. Prussia really does not miss the slightest opportunity to provoke others.
He suddenly remembered that the Dutch chief of staff, Mark Rudd, had previously mentioned that Britain was wary of the Netherlands at present, and that Prussia was beginning to pave the way for confrontation with Britain in the post-French-Prussian War era.
Suddenly he couldn't help but sigh, it seems that Prussia has indeed begun to prepare for the future battle between England and Prussia.
Lae's words made the next Tsarist Empire's ambassador to the Netherlands, Mali Dejeff, to follow up: "Indeed, I saw the British Navy's drills in London three years ago, but to be honest, the drills at that time were not given by the Netherlands now. I was shocked."
Neil, the Austro-Hungarian ambassador to the Netherlands, carefully looked at Robit, the British ambassador to the Netherlands. In addition to his displeased expression, he did not seem to have any intention of refuting this.
So Neil said: "In fact, everyone knows the development of the Netherlands in recent years. The economy is like this, and the military is also the same. This also laid the foundation for the Netherlands to become the second largest country in the world in terms of sales of military equipment in the past few years."
As he finished speaking, British Ambassador Robert's face turned completely dark.
Jan Peter knew that these three people were angering Robbit, so as to increase Britain's disgust towards the Netherlands, and their intentions were sinister!
He hurriedly looked at Robert, who squinted at a few people, but continued to pick up the binoculars and stare into the distance without speaking.
Obviously, he knew that these people had ulterior motives, so he simply ignored them.
His main focus was on the Netherlands' only steamship, the Amsterdam.
Suddenly, he discovered an interesting thing. In the sea around the steam battleship Angusterdam in the distance, there seemed to be a big shark swimming from time to time.
At first he was a lost shark, but slowly he discovered the troops, yes, this shark seemed to be circling the steam battleship.
Not only him, but on the surrounding battleships, some sharks seem to appear from time to time.
Is it an illusion?
Look after rubbing your eyes. Three minutes later, a shark was found at the nearby battleship.
Not only Robit, but now the Prussian ambassador to the Netherlands, Lae, the Austro-Hungarian ambassador to the Netherlands, Neil, and the Tsarist Empire's ambassador to the Netherlands, Mali De Geoff, also discovered this anomaly.
The shark actually swam under the warships of various countries and the people on the warships didn't know it. Just now, they praised the strength of the Dutch navy, but now they feel like they are smacking their mouths.
The three ambassadors of Prussia and Russia in the Netherlands all chose to do so, and seemed unwilling to ridicule the host, so as not to make the Netherlands feel bad. However, the ridicule under their noses could not be concealed.
They are all like this, not to mention the British ambassador.
Robit seems to be the most powerful naval power in the world in order to return to the original position of the United Kingdom, and suddenly said sarcastically: "The Dutch attack is indeed powerful, but there are serious deficiencies in defense."
Looking at Jan Peter, the Swedish Navy Minister Dhaka, and the Danish Navy Minister Lisund, who seemed to be far from giving up, he smiled and said, "Unfortunately, the British Empire's naval defense is very strict, and it has both offense and defense."
But to his surprise, the three of them were not dissatisfied at all, and he even saw a little gratitude on Jan Peter's face. Yes, it was a counterattack to him, who just made a speech mocking the weak defense of the Dutch Navy.
Jan Peter replied with a smile: "The way is never absolute, good things are always behind."
A few people from Sweden and Denmark were mentioned, and even the heads of the embassies in Denmark and Sweden were confused. Jan. Peter and the others did not explain any further.
However, he made an ok gesture towards the flagship commander next to him. Suddenly, Robit and the others understood the meaning behind the good show, and they couldn't help but secretly said, "Are you going to start hitting big sharks?"
A few people sneered softly, it's all this time, what's the use of playing no matter how good it is?
As a result, the four of them felt very comfortable, especially Robbit. What he didn't know because the shark was close to the warship has put a big question mark on the combat power of the three Dutch warships. He will write a copy when he goes back. The telegram from London to Queen Victoria and the Prime Minister's Office has already been sent to the British Foreign Office. It is naturally a report on the mistakes of the navies of the Netherlands and other three countries. Well, the name is called "a Dutch navy with a good look".
Several other people were also contemplating, and they seemed to be waiting for the draft telegram after returning home.
However, suddenly a huge noise hit, and the first-class sailing battleship Holland couldn't help shaking.
They even raised their heads involuntarily, picked up the binoculars and looked at the place where the loud noise came from the left-hand side in front of them. They remembered that when Jan. Peter introduced it, it was called the Hague-class 5 sailing battleship How suddenly It seems to be bombarded in between?
Could it be that the navies of the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden were hitting the wrong direction when they were bombing? And then the shells reached the Hague? If this is the case, then it is really laughable and generous. For the first time in the Netherlands and other Nordic alliances, the shells hit their own warships in the wrong direction?
Think this news is enough to hit the world.
Robbie was eager to go back to the embassy now and send the good news back to London, to the relief of London's high-ranking officials.
At this moment, there was another loud noise from the battleship, flames rose from its body, thick smoke was billowing, and it seemed to be hit by a shell again.
But Robbit didn't see the incoming shells, which made it very difficult for them to find out which such a strange warship was. Where did the cannonballs come from?
