The Imperial Palace of Berlin, the German Empire.
"Everyone, what do you think of the news sent back by Deitlis?”A middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a crown on his head, said slowly.
"Your Majesty, I believe that Deitlis is spouting nonsense.”Lieutenant General He 'er was the first to stand up. "The distant east is filled with a group of uncivilized barbarians and natives. Can they build warships that are comparable to the Ying country?”
His tone was arrogant and arrogant, full of arrogance and endless disdain and ridicule for the distant eastern countries.
"Your Majesty, I think General Herman is right. It is impossible for those uncivilized natives in the distant east to build powerful warships!”General Hansenway said. " I think that good-for-nothing Deitlis must have been defeated in the battle and was afraid of being punished by Your Majesty. That's why he made up such a clumsy lie.”
" Your Majesty, Ditlis must have been defeated and captured by the Pi Empire. To avoid our revenge, the Pi Empire sent Ditlis back this information on purpose.”Admiral Knorr said. "I suggest that we immediately send our army to the east and wage war against the Di Empire. We will avenge our past humiliation and raise the prestige of our empire!”
"Hmm, what you said makes sense.”William II nodded in agreement. " I've already ordered my brother, Prince Henry, to organize a special task force. We'll set off in a few days and rush to the distant east to wipe out all the enemies!”
"Respected Emperor, I have a different opinion.”Suddenly, Prime Minister Hohenroe spoke.
"Oh? Tell me." William II was stunned for a moment before he nodded.
"Your Majesty, I don't think that Deitlis would dare to lie to you.”Hohenroe said. " So, no matter how unbelievable Deitlis's words are, what he said is true.”
"This…what you said makes sense. I believe that no matter what the situation is, Deitlis would never dare to lie to me.”William II pondered for a moment and said. "However, do you really believe that the distant east has a powerful fleet that can rival the Ying country?”
"Respected Emperor, I don't believe it.”Hohenroe shook his head and said. " If the distant East really had such a powerful fleet, how could they have fallen to such a state?”
"However, I also don't believe that the Pi Empire would dare to attack the army of Deitlis. Ever since the 1894 - 1895 War two years ago, the Pi Empire has been extremely afraid of foreign countries. Under such circumstances, how could the Di Empire dare to do such a thing?”
"Let alone a small Jiaozhou Bay, even if Deitlis's army occupied the entire Shandong Province, the Luo Empire would never dare to attack Deitlis's army!”
"Prime Minister, what do you mean by all this?”William II stared at Hohenroe without blinking and asked.
"Your Majesty, what I want to say is that what Deitlis said might be true.”Hohenroe said. "However, the one who attacked the army of Deitlis was definitely not the Sui Empire, but someone else.”
"Prime Minister, are you talking about Japan?”William II's expression changed.
"Respected Emperor, Japan might act, but it's not the biggest suspect.”Hohenroe shook his head and said. "Respected Emperor, have you heard of a rumor?”
"What rumors?" William II asked.
"It's said that Japan's alliance fleet was wiped out by a mysterious and powerful fleet that appeared out of nowhere.”Hohenroe said in a low voice. "Moreover, that mysterious and powerful fleet even attacked Japan and forced Japan to sign an unfair treaty.”
"Prime Minister, where did you hear about this?”William II said solemnly.
Even though he looked down on Japan, he had to admit that the Japanese fleet was very strong. If Japan's alliance fleet was really destroyed, it would be an extremely powerful naval fleet!
" Your Majesty, Deitlis accidentally told me about this two months ago.”Hohenroe said.
"What did you say? Did Deitlis tell you about this?”William II was so angry that he almost fainted.
"Respected Emperor, I have also heard of this matter.”Suddenly, the Chief of Staff of the Army, Schlieffen, who had been silent all this while, spoke up. "But I heard it from the Russians.”
"Respected emperor, I have also heard the Ying country old man talk about this matter.”Tirpitz said.
"Is…is this true?”William II looked at Hohenroe and the other two and said in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, I believe what Deitlis said is true. If nothing unexpected happened, the one who attacked Deitlis's army was the mysterious and powerful fleet.”Hohenroe said.
"Assuming this is true, what do you think we should do?”William II asked after a moment of silence.
"Respected Emperor, I suggest that we send someone to contact them.”Hohenroe said. "If we rashly send troops to the east, it is very likely that we will provoke a terrifying enemy.”
"Respected Emperor, I think what the Prime Minister said makes sense.”Admiralty Tirpitz echoed. "If what Deitlis said is true, and they are willing to trade with us with the world's strongest battleships, it is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the German Empire!!”
"Respected Emperor, why don't we contact them first? If they are deliberately mystifying things, it is not too late for us to send troops to attack!”
"Respected Emperor…"
For a moment, most people expressed their agreement with Hohenlohe's suggestion.
"Good! In that case, he would send someone to contact them first!”William II finally made his decision. "Tirpitz, you are the admiral. Since they claim to have the strongest battleship in the world, please make a trip!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Tirpitz replied.
