"Why, the French emperor must organize this alliance?"

When Bismarck, the Iron-blooded Prime Minister of Prussia, said this in the King's Study at the Charlottemberg Palace, the kings, princes, generals, and staff members present became even more confused!

Why?

It's very simple. This alliance was organized by French emperor Napoleon III. Is there anything wrong with this?

Look, Napoleon III was the emperor?

You know, if you become emperor, you are not an ordinary king, which represents his strong position among the nobles.

And this shows another problem, that is, France is really the overlord of the European continent at this time!

Although Napoleon failed and Napoleon was exiled, France really swept across the European continent, and now Napoleon III is not bad. His foreign wars have always been victorious. Perhaps these wars have no substantial benefits, but France is really awesome.

Another point is Napoleon III's piety, the Pope's affirmation of him, and some commendative comments, which are all telling all believers that Napoleon III, my Pope is supported!

So, why isn't this right for such an emperor to organize this alliance to defend the Catholicism? Isn't this very good?

"That...my dear Prime Minister, I really don't understand why you said that?" King William I really couldn't hold it in.

If you want to say that William I was a little jealous and a little afraid of Bismarck... This is not a dangerous feeling. It is actually like the feeling of the poor student in the school towards the top.

Let’s talk about it before. During the Prussia War, Prussia fought very well. The attacks on Austria were a lot of noise. They not only transported troops by train, but also had fully equipped rifles. In this era when European continent was still lined up to kill, you can imagine how advanced this is.

At that time, if we continued to fight, it would be possible that Austria would be defeated and snatched the title of the Holy Roman Empire!

However, Bismarck's strong advocacy at that time!

Everyone present now had to continue fighting at that time, and Prime Minister Bismarck said he would not fight, and he had to know that before the fight, he delivered the "iron-blooded speech".

You see, this is not very contradictory? And, what exactly is your Bismarck?

Bismarck has one reason.

"The French Emperor is still watching from behind us!"

This sentence alerted the people in the room, and William I was even sweating profusely at that time.

Later, he asked Napoleon III to mediate, and Prussia also got everything he wanted. How great?

So, William I and Bismarck are really in that relationship. But now, what is this prime minister doing?

"Your Majesty!" Bismarck gave a salute first, and then said, "If we Prussia came to organize such an alliance, can Napoleon III agree?"

"Huh?" There was a question mark in everyone's mind. Is this answer too simple?

"Of course it's impossible!" Everyone knows it.

"But are we determined to do this?" Bismarck smiled again.

"We insist on it? Then that guy Napoleon is not allowed to attack us?" The person who said this was Prince Ferritt Carr, but, as soon as he said this, everyone understood!

Yes!

What a good excuse for war!

Prussia is now rising, constantly rising, their weapons are advanced, the army is highly morale, and the domestic economic development is also good. Prussia is not like the French. The French are not against the British, so they are facing each other everywhere, but Prussia is not like this, so Prussia is actually a copycat of many British products.

Well, it should be said that it is not a copycat at all, but a naked plagiarism. The British Patent Office is the most perfect patent department in Europe and even the world. This department is now scolding Prussia every day. But this is a fast lane of industrial development. If you scold, you will scold me. We don’t care.

In the rising Prussia, her chrysanthemums were peeped at by a European superpower. Do you think they want to beat the French?

And there was a deep hatred here. Napoleon caused Germany a lot to suffer, and Prussia was also very miserable at that time.

Now, the opportunity is here!

The most important thing is that this excuse for starting a war, hey, I am optimistic, and it is definitely not initiated by us Prussia.

Just imagine, in a newly rising kingdom like Prussia, they are coming to preside over this alliance of countries that defend the Catholicism. This matter will definitely anger Napoleon III, so this war will definitely be Napoleon III jumping up!

Really, there is no better chance than this!

"My dear Prime Minister, Prussia is proud of having you." William I really had nothing to say. He was a poor student, and he recognized him.

"Your Majesty, you are too rewarding!" Bismarck is very good at being a human being.

Then, there is still a problem now.

"But, why do we bring up this matter?" Xiao Maoqi interrupted at this time.

By the way, this matter is how to operate. No matter how you say it, it cannot be too obvious, otherwise everyone is not fools. Who wouldn't see that you are angering Napoleon III?

"..." This question is really not easy, it's really brain-ridden, but Bismarck suddenly saw a painting in the king's study, a common landscape painting.

"I have a way!" It seemed like a flash of inspiration.

The people present had their eyes wide and their ears were erect. They all wanted to hear what was going on.

"It's better to do this. We invite the painter to make a painting. This painting is like this. We let our Holy Angel Michael, who will guide other gods, such as Athena, Odin, and the old gods, who stand on the cliff and look out, and in the distance, there is a very fierce golden lion, who is roaring at these gods!"

"painting?!"

This method is to have a painting? Isn’t this too unreliable?

But, at this moment, Xiao Maoqi immediately called out. "It's so helpful!"

"What's wrong?" His uncle was unhappy.

"We can give this painting to the Tsar, to Queen Victoria, to... whatever, but we won't give it to Napoleon III!"

Alas? Why is this?

But, the kings, princes and generals present at this time understood. Doing so would definitely make Napoleon III furious!

The reason is very simple. From the meaning of this painting, it is very simple. It is to say that the Chinese lion is about to rise up, take revenge, and kill people, so we individuals should unite, Michael represents us Prussia, and other gods represent other countries. That is all metaphor, but there is a key point here.

Who compared China, an ancient oriental country to a lion?

It’s Napoleon!

This painting is very obscurely telling others that we are going to form an alliance in Prussia, and then borrowed Napoleon's famous sayings. It can even be said to be a prophecy, but we will not give this painting to you Napoleon III. Even if we give it to him, Napoleon III will be furious, because this painting was not done by him!

Napoleon III was an emperor who relied on his uncle to throne. He completely inherited everything about Napoleon and even reproduced him. So now, we Prussia has done this. What do you think Napoleon III’s face looks like?

This method cannot be better, it is definitely a genius idea.

The name of this painting is also simple, it is called "Defend your faith and home"!

So Prussians and Germans, they always do it at will, so, Paris, France, the Palace of Duille...

"Bastard! These bastards! They actually humiliated me so much!..."

There were also crackling sounds accompanied by the insults. Obviously, this was not only a scolding, but also a drop of things, and the falling things were all...

Aluminum disc!

Needless to say, such people who are so angry are Napoleon III, the fox of the Duille Palace. He has often sweared and lost his temper recently, and now he is even more willing to throw things.

Yes, no minister came out and said, "This is Your Majesty's favorite aluminum plate."

The price of aluminum is simply eye-catching. In the past six months, it has been dumping down like jumping off a building. Now it is just a little more expensive than silver.

As the price of aluminum plummeted, the French emperor was angry because of the plunge. The most important thing is that the current large amount of gold in France is lost... Yes, I went to change aluminum. The French think aluminum is still rare. If you sell it, we will collect it. This is a bet.

The key is that the emperor likes aluminum, or rather, likes to show off!

Pretending to be in trouble, and now Napoleon III is so crazy because he already knows the painting.

"Please calm down your anger, Your Majesty." Conrobel was summoned, and he, the French marshal, had to say something when facing such an angry emperor.

"Shut down?! Can I calm down? Prussian bastards! They humiliated me hard! And also humiliated my uncle!" Napoleon III was really angry.

You can tolerate anything else, but it won’t work on his uncle, it won’t work at all, because it will shake the foundation of his rule!

"Your Majesty!" At this time, Bazin, who was summoned together, also spoke, "The Prussians are really hateful! But they are obviously irritating Your Majesty!"

Bazin is not stupid either, but, can Napoleon III take this breath?

"What's wrong with you marshals? Are you afraid? Do you still want me to endure it when they humiliate me so much?" Napoleon III was almost cursing, but he still had to rely on them, "I order now! Enter the state of combat readiness and prepare to attack Prussia!"

"this……"

Conrobel and Bazin both disagree, but they also knew that they could not dissuade His Majesty the Emperor... (To be continued)
