Steel Dynasty - Chapter 1168

[Chapter 1155: Prussia Attacks]

Königsberg.

Ferreira II was reviewing the Prussian Army preparing to go to France. He saw soldiers in light blue military uniforms carrying Hank rifles walking past him with their heads held high. He raised his hat high to express his respect for the soldiers. praise.

On both sides of the road, countless citizens of Königsberg were cheering. They sprinkled flowers on the road where the army passed and shouted slogans “Long live His Majesty the King.”

The current leader of Prussia, Felix II, is indeed worthy of praise in the eyes of every Prussian.

It was he who sent envoys to obtain a large amount of advanced technology from the Eastern Empire, which allowed Prussia’s steam engine technology to surpass other European countries in a short period of time.

The Prussians’ rigor, patience, and hard work were the icing on the cake for Prussian industry. Using the technology they obtained, the quality of their industrial products has continued to improve over the years. The Hank rifles carried by the soldiers now are the results of Prussian industrial progress.

This imitation of an Eagle-type breech-loading rifle was improved by Prussian craftsmen and became a percussion-type breech-loading rifle similar to a Han-style rifle. Although the firing pin technology is not mature enough, there is a solution for each soldier to carry a replacement firing pin. This solves the problem that the firing pin is easily damaged.

In addition to leading the industrial development of Prussia, Felix II also successfully annexed the German Confederation scattered on the European road with the help of the British and French, expanding Prussia’s territory five times, and annexed the land on the western side of Poland. Afterwards, Prussia is now as large as France.

What is also worthy of pride is that the second son of Felix II is now the husband of Queen Victoria of England. There is no doubt that only a strong country can favor the Queen of England.

Schroeder stood beside Fei LiE II. Unlike Fei LiE II who was elated, he was a little worried.

He had been to the Eastern Empire and saw the prosperity and power of that country with his own eyes. When the two countries had close exchanges, they only got a little bit of this empire to successfully make Prussia a European power.

It can be said that today’s Prussia was created by the Eastern Empire.

However, ever since Felix II approved of his marriage to the Queen of England, the relationship between the two countries has taken a turn for the worse and has now reached a freezing point.

He once urged Ferrie II to be cautious, but Ferrie II, who was blinded by his immediate interests, finally agreed to the coordination between Britain and France and betrayed his alliance with the empire at the cost of annexing the German Federation.

“Schroeder, why do you have this expression? Isn’t our Prussian army not strong enough?” Ferrie II asked.

Schroeder looked at the red-faced king and said: “Compared to Europe, it is indeed very powerful, but facing the Chinese Empire, it seems to be far behind.”

Felix II was tall, square-headed, wide-mouthed, and had a strong voice. He said somewhat unhappily: “That’s enough Schroeder, since you came back, you have never approved of my ideas. The Chinese Empire you are talking about now is supporting that damn Henry, and now he is our enemy.”

“Your Majesty, the reason for this is because we in Prussia chose to betray, and now they are ready to punish us.” Schroeder said impulsively: “Britain is finished, and it will be Prussia’s turn next.”

Ferreira II became more and more angry Impatient, he never thought that he had done anything wrong. He said: “Schroeder, you are too naive. There has never been a real covenant in the country. The Eastern Empire was still very weak at that time. He needed us to contain him in Europe.” The armies of Britain and France, and I risked the destruction of Prussia by challenging Britain and France, shouldn’t I get some practical benefits? “

After a pause, he continued: “Prussia’s territory is small, and it is every Prussia’s responsibility to merge with the German Federation to expand its territory. People’s wishes, and only Britain and France can help us achieve this in a short time, and the price we pay is to offend the Eastern Empire. Both of these things are for the benefit of Prussia. “

Schroeder opened his mouth and sighed. With a sound, he said: “Your Majesty’s decision may be right, but I think long-term cooperation with the empire is the long-term benefit.”

“No, haven’t you discovered it by now? Today’s rapidly expanding empire and the current How similar is Britain, he will not allow Prussia to be strong enough to unify Europe. This is the regional interest of the world’s powers, “Ferre II said.

After cooperating with the Chinese Empire, he has been letting Prussia recuperate, develop industry with all its strength, and recuperate for nearly ten years. Now the power accumulated within Prussia finally gives him the ability to display his ambitions.

Schroeder looked at the crazy Ferrie II. He thought for a moment and closed his mouth. Like every king, Ferrie II had an almost crazy pursuit of the country.

After accumulating strong strength, Felie II already has more ideas.

This time, agreeing to Victoria’s lobbying seemed to be due to the marriage relationship between the two countries, but in fact it was for the expansion of Prussia.

With the cooperation of Tsarist Russia and Austria, Poland, a large country in Eastern Europe, perished.

He knew that Felix II’s next target was France.

While the two were talking, Ples, the intelligence officer of Ferreira II, hurriedly came to the two of them and said something in their ears.

“What! Tsarist Russia’s army retreated!” Ferreira II said in disbelief.

“Yes, Your Majesty, they retreated in a hurry. It is said that the army of the Eastern Empire occupied three fortresses in Tsarist Yelets.” Pulus said.

Ferreira II was shocked when he heard this. He said, “Are you sure it’s Yelets?”

“It’s true. All three fortresses used by Tsarist Russia to defend the Ottoman Empire were breached within five days.” Pulus emphasized.

“What’s going on in Austria now?” Felix II asked.

“Their troops are still deployed on the French border, and there is no change.”

Felix II breathed a sigh of relief, and he said: “In this case, there is no problem. With the withdrawal of Tsarist Russia, we and Austria can still defeat Henry, and there is one less person to share. Benefit people.”

Preuss worriedly said: “Now Henry has gathered 300,000 troops under his command. The elite troops are equipped with advanced firearms provided by the Eastern Empire, and there is plenty of food, grass and supplies. Even if we can win, we will probably lose a lot of money. “

That’s why we have to take action now. Once Henry takes control of all of France, the war will break out on our Prussian soil. Do you want to see French soldiers appear on Prussian soil?”

“Of course not.” “Pulus shouted.

“That’s right, go back and do a good job in your intelligence work. Prussia must fight this war. This is the best time for Prussia to dominate Europe.” There seemed to be a flame burning in Ferrer II’s eyes.
