"This seems to be very difficult to operate. It reminds me of Prime Minister Bismarck's diplomacy. He is a person who can really balance the various relations facing Germany." Prince Albert said.
"Thanks for the praise." The prince said with a smile.
"That's great, how do you need me to cooperate now?" Prince Albert asked.
"Prince Louis Mountbatten, Marquis of Milford Haven, the former British First Maritime Secretary, will also accompany this delegation to Brussels. You can go to the Netherlands to meet him. You can be friendly. That's it." Said.
"I see, the poor Prince Mountbatten, at the beginning of the war, was deposed because of his unusual relationship with the empire, and now, the British have to use his special status to get closer to the empire." Prince Albert said with a sigh.
(The wife of Prince Louis Mountbatten is the princess of the Hesse-Rhine Grand Duchy. It is also related to another giant in Germany, the Mecklenburg family. The prince’s son is even more famous, and he is famous in history. Lord Mountbatten, the master of the partition of India and Pakistan!)
No way, before the First World War, the relationship between the royal families in Europe was so complicated. When peace talks are needed, the blood of some top nobles becomes a condition that can be used. For example, this Prince Louis Mountbatten. The relationship with the three major duchy of Germany is naturally to be used.
For the same reason, the prince is also taking advantage of this relationship. If you choose to meet in the Netherlands, you must be prepared to let the French know the news. The Chinese don’t know, the Duke Hendrick, the Duke of the German Mecklenburg family and the husband of Queen Wilhelmina, will also find a way to send this news. In the hands of the French. Then, under appropriate circumstances, Americans will also know the news, so next. It's about to happen!
"So what is the list of people who will meet with the British this time?" Prince Albert asked.
"You and I will naturally be on the list, and General Crook can participate. The British can only be the Foreign Secretary and Prince Mountbatten. In addition, both parties can add a clerk." The prince thought I thought about it.
"This does not seem to be courteous? The number of negotiators on both sides is not equal." Prince Albert said.
"It has given them a lot of face. If it is after the war, the British Foreign Secretary and Prince Mountbatten can only use an audience to see me. Because in the future, I will be the King of Bavaria and the Regent of the Austro-Hungarian Empire! We have to send a signal to the outside world, that is, the Empire negotiated with the British under the advantage, and the British accepted their weak position. After the negotiation is over, we can send some signals of relaxation for the Americans and French There were some misjudgments," the prince said.
"Some signs of relaxation?" Prince Albert said curiously.
"Yes, some easing signals, such as stopping the air raid on London, and then we throw the bomb to Paris!" A sneer appeared on the corner of the prince's mouth!
"Fuck! There is this kind of operation?!" Prince Albert was shocked! If it weren't for the prince to speak out his plan, as an outsider, Prince Albert really didn't know the prince's attitude towards Britain and France. He will be played around like the leaders of Britain, France and the United States, and will eventually complete his performance like a marionette in accordance with Ruprecht's plan!
"So what if the French have to negotiate with us at this time?" In shock, Prince Albert continued to ask.
"Unless the French agree to our request, I will only maintain a channel of communication with the French instead of negotiating, because everything I want to say has already been said. They have only two choices: agree or veto. Of course, as William The husband of Queen Minna, Duke Hendrick, can contact the French in private. He only has to tell the French the fact that the prerequisite for ending the Western Front is that Germany must get what it wants in return. Either from the British or from the French! Let the French want to understand!" Ruprecht said.
"Then when do you think Americans will come to us?" Prince Albert asked the last question of the day.
"The initial contact will be after you meet with Prince Louis Mountbatten. After we have talked with the British, the Americans will quickly send a person of sufficient status to contact us. As for the attitude of negotiating with the Americans? It is also very simple. First, Germany can treat France leniently, but the premise must be that the French are willing to cooperate with us. Second, we understand the United States’ concerns about the international situation, so we can guarantee France’s independence, but at the same time, the United States also It should not be too deeply involved in European affairs, and France should not become an ally of the United States! Third, Germany can help the United States solve the most powerful sword in the hands of the largest Britain! But the United States must pay an extra price! Because this is not for the Empire Necessary!" said the prince.
The Americans do not want to see Germany become bigger and stronger and Germany naturally does not want to see the Americans reach out to Europe. The prince can't just cut the ties between Britain and France, but the United States has again Hooked up with the French, right? Then this matter is even more troublesome! Therefore, the prince must show his position on this issue and be strong enough! When necessary, hesitate to bet all his chips!
As for the elimination of the strongest sword in the hands of the British, it is of course to deal with the large fleet. Although this is also the goal of the prince's plan, the Americans don't know it! In the eyes of the Americans, if the Land War Germany could really make dumplings for the entire British Expeditionary Force. So severely damaging the fleet is not a necessary condition for the British to accept softness. After all, if the British do not accept softness, then prepare to accept the end of the annihilation of millions of troops! You know, the entire population of Britain is more than 45 million...
However, if the British fleet continues to remain after the war, it may be considered a long-term worry for Germany, but it is a near-term worry for the Americans! Once the U.S. and Japan go to war, the British who have just been hit hard will naturally not be able to jump out and fight the Americans together with the Japanese, but for the same reason, if the British "wholesale" their warships to Japan, what will happen? Can the Americans not let the British sell warships? Obviously impossible! Why don't the British do something that helps their allies while also making money? Therefore, the Americans must be more eager than the Germans that the British fleet will disappear from this world! However, in this world, there is nothing without a price!
