Chapter 2414： Do business one

"This is really hard to say. It may not take a few years for the Russians to start a war against Finland, maybe fifteen years later, or the Russians never thought of this. Who can tell this? I just made a point. It's possible. But if I were the chief of the Russian General Staff, I would consider this suggestion if my strength and international conditions permit, and I'd better call Oulu directly!" The crown prince said with a smile.

"If the Russians did this, it would be a very troublesome thing for your country? Once the war between Germany and Russia, after the Germans captured St. Petersburg, the north is the water network zone dominated by Lake Latoga. And the colder it goes north, the army will have difficulty going north. If your army wants to cut off the Murmansk railway line, it will be easier to start from Oulu! So, I think you don’t want to see the Russians. His steps crossed the border between the two countries." Mannerheim said.

“I’ve been thinking about a question. I’m thinking whether we allied with Finland before the Russians started the war against Finland, or waited until the Russians started the war before we allied again. From a Finnish perspective, I think Before the war, the alliance between the two countries would be better, because Finland can obtain continuous military assistance from the German Empire, and the Russians will also throw rats. Of course, since the alliance is formed, Finland must fulfill its obligations, otherwise, friends will become enemies. ."

"But from the perspective of the German Empire, I think it would be better for us to provide assistance after the Russians have stepped onto Finnish territory. The reason is simple. Finland will definitely not be able to defeat Russia. Maybe Russia will If you lose on a certain battlefield, you may pay some price, but the result is certain. At that time, I think the empire can get more benefits. Because you had no choice at that time!"

"By the way, in addition to military and politics, Finnish public opinion at that time was also very beneficial to us. War meant casualties, and it meant that there were always some family tragedies. In addition, the Russians were never effective in restraining themselves. A nation that kills instinct. Under this circumstance, I think the Finnish people will be educated by the cruelty and blood of war, and then understand who is the real enemy and who is the real friend. That kind of thing has nothing to do with oneself. I am afraid that the speculative thoughts will disappear completely, right?” Although Ruprecht smiled, in the eyes of Stahlberg and Mannerheim, the crown prince at this time was a real demon!

The meaning of the crown prince is very clear, although Germany needs Finland to join the Allies. But if Finland refuses to fulfill its obligations as an ally, then Germany will also let Finland understand the cruelty of the war. Germany does not care about Finland's losses in this war. Germany only cares that Finland can fulfill its promises. If Finland wants to commit rape, Then Germany is willing to watch Russia hit Finland hard, and then beg Germany to let Finland join the military alliance of the Allies. The so-called situation is better than people. By then, Finland can really fight for very few rights. And compared to the alliance now, Finland has killed and injured a large number of people in vain!

"His Royal Highness, I think you have misunderstood what we mean, we..." Starberg tried to ease the tension between the two parties. So he spoke, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the crown prince. Judging from the crown prince's expression, he was very impatient.

"I already understand what you said just now. Humans are creatures that coexist with sensibility and rationality. Sometimes they do things beyond rationality because of their personal preferences. For example, we can help Turkey because of Turkey's loyalty. Against Italy. For a European sick patient to offend a country with important influence in the Mediterranean, but we do not regret it, even if we paid a great price, even if Italy chose to be neutral in this war."

"We can also help the Netherlands regain some colonies from Japan, as the Netherlands' return to the empire in this war! In fact, everyone knows that if we retake the reclaimed former Dutch East Indies colonies to the Americans. , Then we can get more rewards. I am afraid that there will be no substantive help to the Dutch other than thanks, but we will still do it and write the relevant content on the treaty with the Americans!"

"On these issues, our principle is very simple. When a country is willing to become an ally of the German Empire, and after assuming certain obligations for this alliance, we are willing to give more than normal rewards. But the same reason, we hate Deception, hate to be used by certain countries, we will instinctively hate these countries! We don’t want people to be taken advantage of."

"In the talks just now, we only saw Finland's use of the German Empire and the shirk of its obligations, but did not see a trace of responsibility and recognition as a friend. Anyway, I don’t care what the German Empire’s attitude towards Finland is. I just regard Finland as a friend who can do business, understand? A friend who can do business, which means that our next negotiations are all about business Pay attention to equal pay and return! The empire’s military assistance to Finland has ended, and every bullet the empire gives to your country will be rewarded!” the crown prince said decisively!

"What shall we do?" Mannerheim looked at Starberg and motioned with his eyes.

"Continue talking." Stahlberg made a decision to stay calm. What Crown Prince Ruprecht just said is already very heavy. If it is a representative of another country, it will be at least if it is not rushed. The meeting said tactfully that both sides need to calm down, so let's adjourn the meeting temporarily.

But Starberg will not do this, or he cannot do it as the President of Finland! Even though the crown prince who walked away and even hit his eyes was comfortable in words, it was absolutely harmful to Finland! Because, the current situation is that Finland wants Germany, not the other way around. Finland needs not only German military assistance and political support, but also economic help! Finland is very lack of mineral resources. So where does the coal, iron, petroleum, and non-ferrous metals come from? Naturally it is the most convenient to come from Germany! Moreover, the newly established Finland is very poor, and Finland also needs German loans to develop its economy!

People had to bow their heads under the eaves. As a politician, if you can't even do this, it's better not to watch it as soon as possible, so after stabilizing his emotions, Staberger decided to continue talking!
