Ultimate Weapon of Magic and Science

Unlike Sir Crow’s diplomatic strategy based on geopolitical strategy, Prime Minister Richelieu’s maritime strategy and naval military thinking are the product of national financial needs.

Before Richelieu rebuilt the navy, all well-known and unknown strategists of Charlemagne always regarded the navy as a subsidiary service. The purpose of building the navy is to strengthen Charlemagne’s international status and send the Charlemagne army at an appropriate time. A means of going to Albian Island. It is not based on competing for the interests of oceans and colonies.

As a technical arm that is different from the traditional army, the required equipment and personnel conditions are much higher than those of the army. Before the breakthrough in fiscal revenue growth, the economic burden of building and maintaining the navy was unbearable for Charlie Mann, the traditional land power.

Richelieu sees keenly that although Charlemagne has fertile land, and a first-class high-tech enterprise such as v.e company supports a huge industry. But the local resources alone are not enough to support Charlemagne to go further and become the overlord of the human camp. In view of the rapid development of the colonial economy and overseas trade, Charlemagne’s self-sufficient economic scale and growth rate are being equalized by the overseas colonial economic systems of Albion and Castile, and may even appear to be comprehensive in a few years. Transcendental crisis. Therefore, Richelieu ended the "internal friction idling" with v.e and adopted a mercantilist national policy to encourage the export of industrial products.

Exports must involve trade. As an efficient trade model that can extend exports to the most remote areas, maritime trade is regarded as a top priority, and maritime trade must involve the navy and sea power.

Overseas trade can quickly increase the country's financial resources, and the size of the colony signed with Charlemagne is too small. As a backward naval power, Charlemagne had no possibility of squeezing into the independent trading systems of Albion and Castilla through pure trade. Therefore, Charlemagne wanted to ensure the prosperity of the kingdom, it must expand its colonies outward, and establish its own overseas colonial trading system. And the scale and speed of expansion must exceed those of other countries to realize Richelieu's vision.

Whether it is to ensure the safety of overseas trade or the smooth expansion of overseas interests, a strong navy that can overwhelm other maritime powers is needed, and the funds to support this navy must come from the profits of foreign trade. Once constituted a virtuous circle between overseas interests and the size of the navy, in turn, it can promote the resolution of domestic problems, quickly making Charlemagne prosperous and powerful.

Li Lin gave a higher evaluation of Richelieu's strategy than Sir Crow. As a traditional maritime power, a nation steeped in marine culture for thousands of years. It is inevitable for Albian to have diplomatic analysts like Sir Crow. And as a traditional continental power-for hundreds of years, the status of the country was obtained and maintained by the army of Charlemagne. The whole country ignored the ocean for a long time and regarded the retention of a navy as a member of the luxurious continental national ruling class. Taking the world and the economy as a strategic point of view, the whole meaning of naval construction is interpreted from a new perspective. And committed to building a strong navy. Richelieu is a strategic master who really jumped out of Lu Quan's thinking. It's worth watching.

But after all, the blood flowing in his bones is the national blood of the mainland. Failure to understand marine culture and marine nations in depth, but too underestimated the tendency of militarism in China, and insufficient understanding of Li Lin’s ability. This is destined to fail this strategy.

Basically, the Charlemagne, especially Richelieu himself, did not really want a world war. The fundamental purpose of expanding the navy at this stage is not to compete with Albian for a short time, but to be a powerful bargaining chip. It can force Albion to make concessions, defaulting Charlemagne as a negotiating aid for embezzlement of the Castile colony, so as to put Charlemagne in a more advantageous position in international politics.

At first glance, this reasonable little abacus actually has a paradox. That is, the Albion Navy has an advantage over the Charlemagne Navy. Charlemagne can use the shipbuilding competition and negotiate blackmail to force Albion to acquiesce Charlemagne to threaten his maritime hegemony.

This idea is too wishful thinking. Albion’s fear and tolerance for his old rivals to challenge his sea power is much lower than Richelieu and Charlemagne had imagined. As Walsingham said: "Every Albion should take out every copper plate to maintain our maritime hegemony."

And the Duke of Marlborough, who participated in the disarmament negotiations, may have the most appropriate view: "Every rivet that Richelieu knocked into his warships is pushing thousands of industries, regions, and regions in Albion. The most energetic people united in their views. The clanging hammer of the Charlemagne Shipyard was created by Albian’s national will to fight against the end of the country."

Although both countries had previously been unable to afford huge naval military expenditures and had plans to abandon the arms race, this did not affect Albion’s ambition to maintain the dominance of the sea, and used all means to make Charlemagne retreat. These include "armament" means such as arms races and "preventive wars", as well as "text" means such as diplomatic strategies and disarmament negotiations.

"My country believes that the naval battleships of the three naval powers-Albion, Castile and Charlemagne should have a total tonnage ratio of 10:6:4."

Sir Crow said quietly, as if he were sitting in the Royal Admiralty Building in Albion, opposite a naval officer who was talking about the weather. Rather than a villa on the outskirts of Rudes, talk to the president of V.e about the bottom line of Albion in this disarmament negotiation.

This is a gesture, a human relationship with a slight price. Due to the strength of Li Lin’s intelligence network, he will sooner or later know that the Duke of Marlborough will make this request in the negotiations. It is better to say it a day or two in advance and to envelop the ally.

Using an intelligence with a shelf life of no more than three days, showing the importance of the covenant with the ve consortium, UU reading www.uukanshu.com for the future war, set up a heavy bomb behind Charlemagne with insurance .

I have to say that the gentlemen of Albion are really business savvy, and they are shrewd with shrewdness in both diplomacy and negotiation.

"10:6:4..."

Taste the taste of black tea, Li Lin's cheeks rose into a smile.

"Is your country serious?"

"There is no doubt that this is the proportion of naval strength that each country hopes to achieve after careful discussion and negotiation after repeated discussions and calculations in our Privy Council, Navy Department, and Ministry of Finance. We can discuss this point, but we do not agree to make any changes. Is our bottom line."

Sir Crow's smile is very meaningful, like an old fox that has been sharpened over the years and is extremely cunning.
