Germanic Empire: please call me William III

“Your Excellency, the Foreign Minister, this visit to the Lighthouse Country has been a hard journey!” Auguste smiled.
Holwig’s visit to the lighthouse nation was a complete success. This made Auguste very satisfied.
“Your Majesty, this time I have not failed to live up to Your Majesty’s expectations. The Lighthouse Powers, though unwilling to join the Allied powers, are unwilling to ally themselves with us now. However, they were willing to lend us large sums of money to buy large quantities of supplies from the Lighthouse Nation. Holwig said with a smile.
“The lighthouse nation is not willing to ally with us now, and most likely wants to sell at a price and wait until the war situation is clear before taking a stand.” However, this does not have much impact on us. As long as we can win the war, the Lighthouse Nation will not be our enemy. Although a huge amount of foreign debt was owed, as long as the war was won, the war reparations alone could get a large amount. At that time, it will naturally be easy to repay these debts! August said indifferently.
For the current Germanic Empire, winning the future war was the most important.
If the fight is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Therefore, August also did his best to find ways to win the future war.
No matter how big the price is, it will not be spared.
Of course, as long as the war is won, nothing is a problem. The Germanic Empire could reap great gains in war. If the battle is lost, then the entire Germanic Empire will collapse, and there will be no need to worry about these problems anymore, and naturally there will be people behind to deal with them.
“Your Majesty, the lighthouse nation is not willing to take a stand now, because it wants to bet on both ends and hide evil intentions!” They clearly want to be on the side of the victors! Admiral Moltke Jr. said.
“Yes, Your Majesty. The Lighthouse Nation has always been hostile to the European continent, and if we want to surpass the European continent, we have to guard against it! The Secretary of State of the Army, Admiral Von Falkenhain, also said.
August nodded, the ambitions and ideas of the Lighthouse Nation, of course he was very clear.
“Indeed, as has been said, the Lighthouse Nations have great ambitions, and they want to surpass the European continent and even want to replace the Empire of the Rising Sun as the hegemon of the world. This clashed with the empire’s goals. So if the future empire wins the war and becomes the hegemon of Europe. Then, the lighthouse nation will become our greatest enemy on the road to world hegemony.
Of course, the Lighthouse Nation may see it the same way. That’s why they decided to help us and give us big loans to make up for the shortcomings of the war. In this way, the war between the same day and the Gauls and the old Maozi can become even more tragic. At the same time, it will also cause a significant loss to the strength of the whole of Europe. In this way, the possibility of the lighthouse nation surpassing Europe is even greater. The possibility of them becoming the hegemon of the world is naturally greater! ”
August said.
When the high-ranking members of the Germanic Empire heard August do this, their expressions could not help but become serious.
“The ambitions of the Lighthouse Nation are really big!” They are just a bunch of lucky upstarts, and to want to surpass the whole of Europe is simply delusional! Shou bilo said.
The other ministers nodded their heads.
This is the general mentality of Europeans in this era, looking down on the lighthouse country, thinking that the lighthouse country is just a bunch of thieves, a bunch of upstarts.
But what they don’t know is that in another time and space, the lighthouse nation seized the opportunity and was able to use the two world wars to rise and become a superpower.
However, in this time and space, with the existence of Auguste, the biggest BUG, the lighthouse nation wants to succeed again, I am afraid it will not be so easy. If they don’t, they’ll fail.
“Gentlemen, whatever the lighthouse nations think, no matter how ambitious they are. For the Empire, this is something that needs to be considered later. What the Empire needs now is to make our Empire stronger. In the ensuing war, victory will be won in the shortest possible time and at the lowest cost. In this case, the wishful thinking of the lighthouse country will not sound. Their plan was also frustrated! August said.
The upper echelons of the Germanic Empire also agreed with this.
For the Ming Empire, winning the next war is undoubtedly the most important.
As for the future competition with the lighthouse countries, that is another matter.
If the Germanic Empire could quickly win the war, the Lighthouse Nation would naturally have no chance to intervene in the war. At the same time, Europe will not suffer too much.
After the Germanic Empire became the hegemon of Europe, it could quickly integrate the strength of the entire Europe and quickly become stronger.
When the time comes, suppressing the lighthouse nation will not be a problem.
“This time, we got a lot of supplies from the Lighthouse Nation. When these supplies arrive, they are replenished into the national strategic reserve. The building of our army also needs to be accelerated. Perhaps, in the future, wars will soon break out! Auguste reminded.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” The top brass of the Germanic Empire answered.
The Germanic Empire co-opted the Lighthouse Nation in an attempt to pull the Lighthouse Nation into the Allied bloc, which could be described as a cold sweat for the Sun and the Gauls.
Fortunately, the Lighthouse State refused the Germanic Empire’s request for an alliance, otherwise the Entente would be in danger.
However, the Lighthouse Nation provided large loans to the Germanic Empire, allowing the Germanic Empire to purchase a large amount of resources and other materials from the Lighthouse Nation, which also caused protests from the Sunless Empire and the Gaul State.
But the Lighthouse State claimed that this was nothing more than normal trade.
If the Sun Does Not Set Empire and the Gaul Kingdom need it, you can also place an order with the Lighthouse Nation.
But the Empire and the GaulIsh Empire would not do that, they had vast overseas colonies to exploit, so they did not send them to the lighthouse countries to make money.
The top brass of the two countries even reached an agreement to wait until the Germanic Empire had been resolved before finding trouble for the Lighthouse Nation.
The rapid development and rise of the lighthouse nation has also posed a threat to them.
In particular, the Empire of the Rising Sun already felt that its hegemony was under threat. This made them naturally want to find a way to eliminate this threat.
The international situation has thus become more tense and complex.
