Chapter 1261 The toughness of the empire

The huge colonies of Britain and France overseas are undoubtedly a huge fortune. Both the Prussian Kingdom and the Ottoman Turkish Empire hope to get a piece of the pie. In particular, the Indian colony is the largest diamond on the crown of the Queen of England. Now, the Chinese Empire not only occupied India, but also packed all other colonies into its pocket, which makes it acceptable to the Prussian Kingdom and the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

However, although they were very unwilling to give up, the two countries had no other way in the face of the tough attitude of the Chinese Empire. Unless they really dare to send troops to seize those colonies, that would mean going to war with the Chinese Empire? Although the Chinese Empire does not want to go to war yet. If the Prussian Kingdom and the Ottoman Turkish Empire take the initiative to launch an attack, this would undoubtedly give the Chinese Empire the best excuse. The people of the Chinese Empire will inevitably support the empire to go to war with them.

Although the Prussian Kingdom was very powerful after annexed the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the territory of the Prussian Kingdom expanded several times more than before the war. Without integration, these territories and populations will not only not bring benefits to the Prussian Kingdom, but will also become a drag. In this case, continuing to challenge the powerful enemy of the Chinese Empire is simply seeking death.

The same is true for the Ottoman Turkish Empire. They finally took over the entire Balkan Peninsula and Ukraine, but the Slavs would not let the Turks rule like docile sheep. To fully control these territories, the Ottoman Turkish Empire needs to make greater efforts. It is completely unwise to go to war with the Chinese Empire at this time.

More importantly, even if the Prussian Kingdom and the Ottoman Turkish Empire unite, they may not be able to defeat the Chinese Empire. If the war is lost, all the benefits they gained in this war will be lost.

"Everyone. Since everyone has a big difference, why don't we go to the meeting for the time being!" Ali Pasha said quickly when he saw that the meeting was in danger of losing control. This meeting was the best platform for the Ottoman Turkish Empire to promote its strength. The previous process has been over, and the meeting is about to end. If a problem occurs at this time and the meeting fails, the previous efforts of the Ottoman Turkish Empire will be in vain. The Sultan of the Ottoman Turkish Empire will not forgive them.

Prime Minister Otto von Bismarck, the Kingdom of Prussia, was not a fool either. He also saw the crisis. So he nodded and agreed.

As for the representatives of the Chinese Empire, the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Belgium, there is even more no objection. Anyway, the fat meat that has been eaten in the mouth will never be spit out. If other countries want to fight for it, there is no other way except to use force.

After the recess, Ali Pasha and Mustafa Rest Pasha jointly visited the Embassy of the Chinese Empire in the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and the two proposed to Lin Zihao and Wei Yuan. They hoped that the Chinese Empire could make a little concession so that the peace meeting could end successfully.

However, their request was harshly rejected by Lin Zihao and Wei Yuan. Lin Zihao and Wei Yuan claimed that the empire would never give in on this issue. Otherwise, the outside world would still think that the empire was weak and could be bullied. Although the Ottoman Turkish Empire only hoped that the Chinese Empire could give the Prussian Kingdom a little soup when the Chinese Empire was eating meat. However, because of the annexation of the Austro-Hungarian Empire by the Prussian Kingdom, the Chinese Empire had already warned of the Prussian Kingdom. Naturally, it would not give the Prussian Kingdom another chance to grow and develop.

The tough attitude of the Chinese Empire made Ali Pasha and Mustafa Rest Pasha return in vain. The two had to meet with Abdul Maijid I. The hot potato was handed over to him to solve it.

"Your Majesty, the Chinese Empire has a very tough attitude on the issue of colonies. Judging from their appearance, if they want to hand over the colonies, there seems to be no other way than to launch a war." Ali Pasha said. Although the Ottoman Turkish Empire also coveted those vast colonies, Ali Pasha now wants to retreat.

"Damn Chinese, they swallowed most of the world in one bite. Abdul Maijid I complained. After all, among the colonies obtained by the Chinese Empire, India alone was enough to make others drool in their envy. Not to mention South Africa, which is rich in gold, and other African colonies. The Ottoman Turkish Empire was located on the Mediterranean coast. If it wanted to continue to expand southward, it would have to travel through the Sahara Desert or land in other parts of Africa. However, in the absence of a naval force, the Ottoman Turkish Empire could not compete with the Chinese Empire at all, and could only watch the Chinese Empire take a large number of colonies into its pocket.

"Your Majesty, it is very unwise to go to war for those colonies and the Chinese Empire. In this war, we have gained enough benefits, and there is no need to start a war for these colonies and the Chinese Empire. What's more, even if the war breaks out, we may not be able to win. Once we lose, we will pay a greater price." Mustafa Lester Pasha also said. Now the Ottoman Turkish Empire has finally returned to its heyday. If the war is lost, everything they have done will be in vain.

Abdul Maijid I nodded. Although he was unwilling to admit it, he knew that the Ottoman Turkish Empire was too far from the Chinese Empire. If he provoked the Chinese Empire, there would be no good results.

"Okay, we won't interfere with the colonies, let the Prussians make trouble!" said Abdul Maijid I. However, his unwillingness could be seen from the expression on his face.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Ali Pasha and Mustafa Rest Pasha both said quickly.

"Your Majesty, in the annexation of the Austro-Hungarian Empire by the Kingdom of Prussia, our support for the Kingdom of Prussia has caused a rift in our relationship with the Chinese Empire. I think that before the victory and defeat between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Chinese Empire, our relationship with the two countries must be well established. Therefore, I think we should find a way to make up for the relationship between us and the Chinese Empire as soon as possible." Ali Pasha said.

If the Austro-Hungarian Empire wants to maintain its current position and even develop better, it must stand on the side of the winner. In this way, the Ottoman Turkish Empire will have the best of both worlds. Unless one side already has an absolute advantage, the Ottoman Turkish Empire will not make a clear statement. To put it bluntly, this is just a fence-between. However, this is indeed the most beneficial to the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

If Ali Pasha could always serve as chief Pasha, the Ottoman Turkish Empire would undoubtedly become stronger and stronger. Unfortunately, Ali Pasha was dismissed not long after. The successor did not continue Ali Pasha's strategy, which undoubtedly caused a disaster to the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

"Yeah!" Abdul Maijid I nodded. He bowed to the Chinese Empire, which was not what he wanted. However, now there seems to be no other choice.

"Your Majesty, the wedding between the two princesses and the Chinese Emperor can be put on the agenda. We can fully discuss this matter with the Chinese delegation when they were in Istanbul." Mustafa Lester Pasha said.

Abdul Maijid hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Okay, let's leave this matter to you!"

Ali Pasha and Mustafa Rest Pasha quickly took the order. They knew that it was difficult for Abdul Maijid I to hand over his favorite twin daughters to an older man who was older than him.

While the Ottoman Turkish Empire was discussing how to deal with the current crisis and finally decided not to have any ideas about the colonies acquired by the Chinese Empire, the delegation of the Prussian Kingdom was also having a fierce debate.

"Those yellow-skinned monkeys are so hateful that they actually want to monopolize all the colonies. This is completely to erase the contribution made by the Prussian Kingdom in this war. God will definitely punish those greedy yellow-skinned monkeys!" As soon as he returned to the embassy, ​​Crown Prince Frederick William shouted. At the meeting, he also attended. The attitude of the Chinese Empire made him very dissatisfied. However, he did not have the right to speak, and he dared not offend the Chinese Empire on the spot, so he had been patient. Now that he returned to the embassy, ​​he could finally vent his anger without any scruples.

"His Crown Prince, the reason why the Chinese are so tough is that they have the capital to swallow those colonies. The Prussian Kingdom wants to compete with the Chinese Empire, at least, from the moment, there is no possibility!" said Count Moltch. Not to mention anything else, the long distance between those colonies and the Prussian Kingdom is enough to make the Prussian Kingdom without a powerful navy at all. It is impossible for the Prussian Kingdom to compete for those colonies. The Chinese Navy can easily cut off their connection with those colonies. Therefore, before the powerful navy develops, the Prussian Kingdom's eyes can only be on the European continent. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
