Since the time travel, Prince Ruprecht is the kind of person who has ideas and thinks it is reasonable and will do it immediately. How bad can it be? It is nothing more than throwing the crown away like in history. After the unpleasant talks between Roosevelt, the prince immediately went to the Palace of Worry. He needed to convince William II to support this opinion, and then the German Emperor. As for the current imperial prime minister? His Highness automatically ignored it. Without Bismarck's reputation and skills, the rights came completely from the Prime Minister. His opinion was not important when the royal family agreed!

"This is not a trouble, but why do I always feel that we are at a disadvantage?" Prince William said with some dissatisfaction after hearing what Prince Ruprecht said. "We have paid a lot, and may even offend Britain. Apart from an illusory so-called friendship, the empire will not get anything."

"We can exchange interests with American Samoa. Believe me, this interest is to be a big one! It is so big that you absolutely cannot refuse!" Prince Ruprecht walked up, picked up a globe, then put it in front of the prince, and pointed two places in Africa with his fingers!

"How about these two places?" The prince pointed to Angola and Mozambique, which belong to Portugal, respectively!

"Are you crazy? Are you going to annex the Portuguese colony?" Prince William said in surprise, "You are more bold than me! I turned out to be just trying to obtain a port in the Far East, and you want to double the area of ​​Germany's colony in Africa! You broke the situation of the great powers' division of Africa in the 1980s, which will cause unpredictable consequences!"

"Are you scared?" His Highness the Prince asked with a smile.

"This has nothing to do with courage. This is a stubborn action that will put the empire into unprecedented isolation." If the person standing in front of him was not a future king of Bavaria, William II would definitely teach this rash guy a lesson. The arrogant prince will never allow anyone to question his courage!

"So who will isolate us? Russia, France, Britain, or Italy, or the United States on the other side of the ocean?" His Highness asked after putting down the globe.

"Russia is still waiting for the warships we build for them and the support we give them in the Far East. As long as we don't move the Balkans, there will be no major problems in the fundamentals of Russia-German relations before Russia and Japan decide on the outcome. From this perspective, the Russians will not support a small country far away on the other side of Europe. Russia has no interests in Africa."

"The French may interfere, but they may not have the courage to fight with us for Portugal! Or it is impossible to start a war with us because of this! And the most important thing is that when we launch this offensive, our new batch of warships have been completed, and our ocean-going combat capabilities will surpass France. If the French really want to take action, we will accompany us to the end, whether in Europe or Africa, whether on sea or on land!"

"What is really worth worrying about is Britain. You hate Britain very much, but you lack the courage to confront Britain head-on. Britain is very powerful and the navy is the world's first-class. These are all right. But Britain also has its weakness. The conflict between the British and the Boers has reached the brink of war, and the two sides have fought fiercely for the world's largest gold mine. I have a premonition that the British will be trapped in the quagmire of war! And this is an opportunity for us!"

"Hahaha, the Boers? The descendants of those Dutch people? Their ancestors were defeated by the British when they were most powerful, and they were forced to hand over the fleets and merchant ships to survive. Hundreds of years later, those descendants in Africa still wanted to block the British? Are you dreaming? Your joke is not funny at all, Ruprecht, my friend." Prince William couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

"I have had many dreams, but they all come true, such as the fight between Japan and the US and Russia fleet this time, as well as the ownership of the Philippines." The prince was not angry at all, and said after pouring himself a cup of Ceylon black tea.

"This..." Prince William was speechless for a moment. Before the outbreak of the Spanish-American War, Prince Ruprecht once revealed some views on this war to William II to a limited extent, such as Japan will take action against the Philippines, and for example, the Japanese fleet will defeat the US and Russian fleet. If it were not for the ritual and the face of friends, the Crown Prince would have to mock him, but now, he has to admit that this prince has a very accurate grasp of the entire situation, giving people a feeling that although he doesn't know what you think, he can guess it right!

"Fortunately, the Portuguese are weak now. We can only incorporate these two colonies into the empire's territory with very little power. If the Boers could hold back the British, we could act. When the established facts were created, would the British still fight us for Portugal? Compared with the distant Asia, we can obtain basic supplies in Cameroon, Namibia and German East Africa."

"If we win, then our colony in Africa can double, and if we lose, it will be embarrassing at most. And don't forget that the British personally tampered with European countries in the world's colonial system. For their own interests, they sold the interests of Spain to Japan without hesitation, and we are just repeating this process." The prince continued.

"So what you mean is to let Americans support us diplomatically in exchange for our help in the Far East? Is that right?" Prince William understood the reason.

"It can be understood in this way that diplomatic help is not enough. We also need Americans to support military and supply. We must make a quasi-alliance of the United States and Virtue. Only in this way can we guarantee our interests in the Far East and Africa at the same time," the prince said.

"Americans don't necessarily do this, they are still very conservative. If we conflict with the British, they will definitely not interfere. I understand those guys." The crown prince still hesitated.

"But at least Americans will be neutral, and because of the relationship between Britain and Japan, Americans will at least be neutral with good intentions! That's enough. There are many things that will be left behind, which cannot be solved now, but I don't think we can miss this opportunity." The prince said firmly.

"This is a bit too risky, I need to think about it." William II did not refuse or agree, but decided to put it aside.
