The Second Reich: Beginning with the Prince of Prussia

Second Empire, Bolin.

Andrews has been having a better time lately, and after becoming emperor, life has started to get better after the first difficult time.

At the moment, although Europe is full of wolf smoke, the wind is loud.

But the Second Empire was quiet and showed no signs of unrest.

In this case, Andrews naturally has no worries, but can calmly discuss the current international turmoil with Bismarck.

"It looks like a war is inevitable in Eastern Europe!"

Bismarck said with some emotion that Constantinople was not only a strategic location, but also had a very high political value, just like Jerusalem in the Middle East.

For the Orthodox Church, Constantinople was their holy place.

And the hairy bear is an Orthodox country, which prides itself on being orthodox Christianity.

If they can't take it back, it will be much worse in terms of legitimacy, but if they can take it back, then they may not be able to compete with the Pope of Rome.

Andrews was not interested in religious matters, and the Second Reich was more motley.

Within the empire there were parts Protestant, part Catholic, and part atheist.

However, Bismarck explained the truth, and he was able to understand it.

"According to this analysis, even if the sun does not set and people really send troops, the woolly bear may not stop?"

Andrews changed his position to make himself more comfortable, and asked casually.

It's none of their business, whether they fight or not, it doesn't matter much to them.

Even, the Second Reich could take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune from the war.

"The Furry Bears have failed twice before, once when Sunset and Gaul joined forces, and once when they hit their heads in the Pleven Fortress.

And this time, the hairy bear people have been planning for a long time, preparing for more than ten years, Alexander III made great efforts in the country, vigorously reformed, and cleared a lot of internal troubles that had accumulated for a long time for the hairy bear, so that the national strength of the hairy bear has reached a new level.

Therefore, if they don't make a move, they will do it, and once they do, they will not stop until they achieve their goal. "

Bismarck had fought many times with the Woolly Bears, and he had a good understanding of the Woolly Bears' temper.

With the furry bears' fanatical pursuit of land, they will not let go of even a deserted, icy and snowy place like Siberia.

And how could it be so easy to let Constantinople and the surrounding Thracian region go?

This is the last essence of the Byzantine Empire, and by taking it, they will not only be able to retake a holy city, but also gain a large amount of fertile land, which is worth more than the tens of millions of square kilometers of land they have in the Far East and North Asia!

"Then you said that if the sun does not set, people will make a move?"

Hearing Bismarck say this, Andrews had some expectations in his heart.

The determination of the woolly bear people has been shown, so what about the side where the sun never sets?

Do they have the determination to fight the woolly bear?

"The sun never sets on the woolly bear has always been very guarded, the two countries have had many direct confrontations in Central Asia, and in the Far East, the sun never sets has also supported the Japanese to contain the woolly bear.

Since they are so wary of the woolly bears, it is impossible for the woolly bears to occupy Constantinople, and I think they will definitely interfere. "

Bismarck calmly analyzed it and gave a positive judgment.

Andrews thought for a moment, and came to the same conclusion as Bismarck.

But there is another question, that is, what to do with the Italian people?

"The strength of the Italian people is relatively weak, and the sun does not set on the people can completely deter them, just scare them away. "

"Isn't the 50,000-strong army of the Italian people already landed?

Hindenburg, who was on the side, heard the conversation between the two, and was curious, and couldn't help but interject. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Bismarck glanced at Hindenburg and knew that the young general was highly regarded by the Emperor, who seemed intent on training him as a successor to the elder Moltke.

So seeing that it was him who asked the question, Bismarck did not have any impatience in his heart.

He patiently explained: "Although Italy is very close to North Africa, it is separated by a sea after all.

The Itali army seems to be strong, but the logistics are weak.

The sun never sets on the people without much to do, they just need to cut off the route between the Italian mainland and North Africa, and let the 50,000 troops sent out by the Italian lose their logistical supplies, and they will retreat without a fight. "[]

Andrews stroked his palms and smiled: "There is a way that the three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the modern army that has lost its logistics supply has basically lost its combat capability, and our prime minister is really both civil and military!"

Bismarck smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the emperor had passed the award........

The old Hindenburg on the side blushed, such a simple logistical problem, but he didn't expect it, which made him feel very ashamed, and he couldn't wait to find a crack to get into.

As if seeing Hindenburg's embarrassment, Bismarck said with a smile: "You are from the army, you don't know anything about the navy, and you don't know how strong the navy is, so you ignore the problem of logistics, it's not that your ability is insufficient." "

Bismarck said it more politely, and Hindenburg felt better after hearing it.

"It's that you don't have enough experience and vision!"

But Andrews was not so polite, and pointed out the problem of Hindenburg to the point.

"Yes, Your Majesty taught you!"

Andrews glanced at him, and saw that his face was as usual, and it was obvious that his mentality had adjusted.

In this way, he was relieved.

"Let's continue with the conversation!"

Andrews chin stood, thought about it seriously, and then spoke:

"I've always wanted to take action against the kingdoms and principalities in my country, but they have a lot of power, and if I do it rashly, I'm afraid it will cause them to resist fiercely. "

Bismarck nodded, at the beginning, Prussia, with its great prestige in the Franco-Prussian War, could not swallow these countries in one bite, so it could only gather them in a federal way to form the Second Empire, a superficially unified country.

The kingdoms and principalities have relinquished some of their power, but they still have very strong power.

Now that the empire is thriving 1.4, and it is in full swing, they may not make any changes.

But once the empire encounters a huge crisis, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not take the opportunity to break away from the control of the empire and regain their independence.

In that case, the Second Empire would fall apart and become a historical term.

"I don't care much about the resistance of these countries, with the current strength of the empire, it is completely possible to suppress them.

What I've always been worried about is the interference of other countries, such as the sun never sets, Gallic and the woolly bear!

These three countries are eyeing the Empire, and once a good opportunity arises, they will definitely not miss it, so I have never dared to act rashly!

But now, their energy is involved in other things, and they can't take care of us in a short time, which is a great opportunity for us to get hands-on!"
