“The Celestial Empire is so large that its resources must be very rich. If we can give some of them to Hans, we may be able to eliminate Hans’ support for the Celestial Empire. In this way, it will be much easier for us to swallow up the Celestial Empire!”
Prime Minister Nakata said cautiously to Zhaohe Tianhuang.
Zhaohe Tianhuang regarded the Celestial Empire as his own forbidden delicacy and would not allow others to get involved.
But if they do not cut off the connection between the Celestial Empire and Hans, then once Hans increases his aid to the Celestial Empire again, they will inevitably pay a huge price to conquer the Celestial Empire!
“Humph, Hans is far away in Europe. After defeating Gaul, he can go south to attack Gaul’s colonies in North Africa. Isn’t Africa big enough for them? Why do they have to come to the Far East to compete with us for the fat piece of meat of the Celestial Empire?”
The words of the Emperor Zhao Nuclear made everyone speechless. You know this is fat meat, don’t other powers know it?
Everyone rushed to see a piece of fat meat. Isn’t this kind of thing rare in recent years?
After the Opium War, all the powers in the world took a fancy to the fat piece of meat of the Celestial Empire. In the past 90 years, the powers have taken advantage of the Celestial Empire. There have been six or seven armed invasions, five major wars, and large concessions in some larger cities in the Celestial Empire!
But this is not enough, far from it!
As the last major country in the world that has not been colonized at this time, and a huge consumer market with a population of more than 400 million, the Celestial Empire is a piece of fat meat with great attraction for all the powers.
All the powers want to take the Celestial Empire. Swallow it all up and make it their own colony!
However, because there are so many people who are interested in this place, as long as one party takes action, the other powers will definitely jump out to intervene.
After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the three countries jointly intervened and forced the Foot Basin to return the Liaodong Peninsula. This is proof of that!
The Foot Basin now wants to swallow up the entire Celestial Empire. This matter has already harmed the interests of other powers. It is impossible for them to stand up and support the Foot Basin.
Not only will they not support it, but they will also make all kinds of obstacles behind the Foot Basin to prevent the Foot Basin from easily annexing the Celestial Empire.
Hans, Eagle Sauce, the Russian Bear and even the British Empire, these powers all did this!
If the war had not broken out in Europe at this time and the powers had not been fighting each other, it would be impossible for them to annex the northeast region of the Celestial Empire so easily. For the impossible!
Not to mention entering the pass and further occupying more land in the south of the Celestial Empire!
It is conceivable that as the Japanese army gradually moves south and approaches the Great Wall, the reaction of the great powers will certainly be more intense. At that time, let alone the Hans, the Eagle Sauce, the Russian Bears and even their ally, the British Empire, will stand up against them!
The Northeast region has always been the sphere of influence of the Russian Bears.
Their invasion here does not cause much damage to the interests of the great powers in China, but if they continue to move south, it will really damage the interests of various countries.
The main interests of the British Empire and the Eagle Sauce are in the southern region.
The southern region did not participate in the war, and the population here is large and the business is developed.
Both countries have a large number of merchants dumping goods.
This is their main commodity market.
And Hans in 1923 After that, their products also began to enter the Celestial Empire, and with their good reputation and excellent quality, they won unanimous praise from domestic consumers in the Celestial Empire.
Therefore, their products expanded very quickly.
In just a few years, their business network has spread throughout the Celestial Empire.
Not only are there Hans products in the southern region, but products with the words”Made in Hans” can also be seen everywhere in the north!
It is probably difficult to count how many goods the great powers dump into the Celestial Empire market every year, but it can be imagined that this number is definitely not small, so they will never give up this benefit easily!
The Sun Never Sets and Eagle Sauce are a little easier to say.
Their main sphere of influence is in the area south of the Yangtze River, so unless the troops of the Foot Basin cross the Yangtze River and attack the southern region, it is unlikely that they will directly turn against the Foot Basin.
However, the sphere of influence of Hans is wider.
Not only the south, but also the north and even the northeast are their markets.
Therefore, from the first moment of sending troops, the Foot Basin has already damaged the commercial interests of Hans.
It is understandable that they will provide various weapons and equipment to the Northeast Army!
If the Japanese army continues to enter the pass and go south, Hans’ interests will be damaged even more, and Hans’s reaction will probably be more intense.
If the foot basin is unwilling to make concessions in interests, the contradictions between the two countries will become more and more serious.
Although it is difficult for the two countries to declare war directly due to the distance, they cannot send troops to attack each other across a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers.
However, if the foot basin really offends Hans, then with Hans’s strength, they can completely use other methods to destroy and obstruct the foot basin’s actions, just like this time they provided military assistance to the Northeast Army! The
Northeast Army is just a local warlord in the Celestial Empire, with only more than 500,000 troops. With the assistance of Hans, such a warlord has blocked them for a whole year, causing them more than 100,000 heavy casualties!
If Hans increases his assistance and finds an aid object with a larger territory, stronger strength, more appeal and influence than the Northeast Army, it will be too difficult for the foot basin to conquer the Celestial Empire. Even if they succeed in conquering the Celestial Empire, the price they pay may be an astronomical figure that is unacceptable!
Therefore, you can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing a child!
If they are stingy with this little bit of benefit at this time and are unwilling to make concessions, which leads to their enmity with Hans, it will definitely not be a good thing for Jiaoben, because the price they are unwilling to pay at this time will definitely be paid on the battlefield!
Moreover, if Hans is really irritated, and Hans sends volunteers to assist the Celestial Empire in the battle, then the problem will be even more serious. With the combat effectiveness of the German army, relying on their powerful armored forces and air force, the current Japanese army is simply not their opponent.
Even if the German army cannot send too many people at a time due to the distance, the new type of armored forces, even if an armored division is sent, can pose a huge threat to the Japanese army. The
Japanese army has never seen this kind of fast, powerful, and highly mobile force, let alone confront it!
On the plains in the north of the Celestial Empire, any Japanese division will probably suffer a big loss if it encounters this kind of force, right?
Therefore, even though Prime Minister Tanaka knew that his persuasion would make Tian Huang unhappy, he still said with gritted teeth:”Hans is so powerful and has the strongest army in the world. It is not a bad thing to be more respectful when dealing with such a strong man.……”
He thought that what he said would make Emperor Zhaohe unhappy, but he didn’t expect that after hearing it, Emperor Zhaohe actually nodded in agreement.
“That’s right. When we first carried out military reform, the army was modeled after the Prussian military system. In fact, their army has always been our teacher. Hans’s army has always been famous all over the world. As students, we should really learn more!”
This statement surprised everyone. When has the middle school boy, the Emperor of Recruiting Nuclear Power, ever admired others?
This is the first time that the ministers have seen a country being praised like this!
