"The Portuguese are scared! These cowards actually want to use words to separate the two countries in Germany that are as close as brothers! It is a pity that this time, we will not forgive them anyway, do you think? Rupley Hit?" William II said with a smile after throwing aside the newspaper in his hand.

; "That's it, Your Majesty, the Portuguese gave us an excellent excuse." The prince lied and said.

"Then, my respected Mr. Admiral, when can our fleet launch an attack on Portugal? I can't wait now." There was a combative light in William II's eyes!

"It’s not yet possible. The Portuguese dare to challenge the dignity of the empire, the fundamental reason is that other countries support, the Russians have no reason to do so, the British have no kung fu, then the only possibility is the French! Their fleet in Africa It is the Portuguese's greatest support! And before our other two warships arrive in Africa, we should not take drastic actions!" The prince shook his head and said.

"Damn Frenchman, they never stopped fighting against Germany. Is our fleet in Africa enough? Do you need to send some more warships?" William II said angrily.

; "No, even if the worst happens, Count Spey and Colonel Hipper have a 70% chance to kill the French! And our fleet left in the homeland can directly frighten the French, or drive to the shore of Portugal. , Aim at Lisbon with the naval gun!" The prince said calmly.

"But before that, we need to defeat the Portuguese in public opinion! They said that this dispute is only an economic issue, and it is aimed at companies of the Bavarian royal family, so good, we need to change this trend! For domestic propaganda, Change it to a provocation against the German Empire!"

"In terms of external propaganda, we need to continue to describe the Portuguese colonial authorities as slave traders in a new era! Of course, it would be better if there were more uprisings in these two colonies at this time!" After thinking about it.

"Leave these things to others. We now need to formulate a complete set of military plans. Today, the German Empire is not obtained by negotiation and pomp! We will finally end all this with a thunder strike, right?" The emperor felt a little dull at what the prince said, and interrupted directly.

"We have done everything that should be done in the military. In fact, we can use this incident to test the reliability of the German allies!" Although the prince was dissatisfied, he gave up on the news and diplomatic issues, but changed it. Another topic of interest to the Kaiser.

; "How reliable are allies? Haha, Fritz is your father-in-law, I think the Austro-Hungarian Empire will support us, and Italy should also follow this agreement?" The German Emperor said with a smile. "But to be honest, Italy is too weak and too timid. They probably won't do anything."

"It would be fine if Italy didn't move. I'm even more worried. Italy will stand on the side of France. In fact, I have doubted the value of alliance with Italy a long time ago. They are not a reliable and powerful ally." The prince sneered.

; "They have no reason to help the French?" William II said with a frown.

"It’s hard to say, the Italians are not so courageous. They pursue a kind of thinking called extreme egoism. Diplomatic agreements can't restrain them at all. If the Italians choose to help the French this time, then I Think we should reconsider our foreign policy." The prince said.

"It makes a lot of sense. I despise this country that relies on left and right to become independent. If they don't want to be friends with Germany, then just throw them aside." William II did not hesitate. Said.

At this moment, the war between Portugal and Germany not only did not stop, but it developed in an increasingly fierce direction. Portugal defined it as an economic dispute and expressed its willingness to resolve it through negotiations, while the German side considered it a provocation because the Yarrow incident seriously affected Germany's free trade.

"If any small country uses violence to interfere with the freedom of trade in the German Empire, and we have to negotiate and compromise in exchange for the other party’s consent, then what use is our army? The other party uses violence to contain it. We, asking us to solve the problem only through negotiation? This is the most ridiculous joke I have heard this year!"

; "The German Empire will reserve the right to take all actions, and we will pay attention to the development of the situation. If Portugal wants to negotiate with us, then it is best to replace the **** slavery colonial government first and then talk! This side will continue to work 15 The black slave trade in the centuries, and the Portuguese government that prevented others from free trade on the one hand, is a cancer of the entire European civilization!"

After this very pungent article was published in the Frankfurt daily newspaper in Germany, some politicians with keen sense of smell have already smelled the blood pervading it! After nearly a month of quarreling, this matter has not only been resolved, but continued to ferment!

; And shortly after this article was published, the United States, far away across the ocean, also expressed its condemnation of the Portuguese for restricting the free economy, and expressed its understanding of Germany's possible actions. "We believe that in order to guarantee basic human rights and the sovereign dignity of a country~lightnovelpub.net~Any action taken by the German government can be forgiven. No country can tolerate its own ships being innocently detained while engaged in normal trade. !"

; When US Secretary of State Day made this speech at a press conference, the conflict between Portugal and Germany finally began to spread around the world, and then, the Austro-Hungarian Empire also expressed support for Germany, and Russia was cautious Expressing an understanding of Germany basically belongs to the side more inclined to Germany. The British did not make a statement for a long time.

"Something is wrong!" The French also smelled a dangerous signal from it! The situation that they expected to settle the matter and settle the problem through negotiation has not happened, and there is a tendency to intensify. What is even more frightening is that this time the Germans have attracted many allies. This is clearly a kind of momentum building! The French who are proficient in this way finally realized that Germany may have to do it this time!

In fact, all this happened faster than the French expected. Just five days after the article was published in the Frankfurter Zeitung, the German fleet under the command of Colonel Hipper entered the vicinity of Angola. The sea and head towards their first goal!
