Jagged Germany

  Berlin, Germany, Imperial Palace, Kaiser Wilhelm II's office.

  The atmosphere in the office seemed a bit dignified, Qin Tian was sitting behind the desk with a dark face. A group of military and political ministers of the empire were sitting on the sofa. But everyone's faces were very ugly.

  Before Qin Tian made it clear that Gibraltar must be taken. The Mediterranean Fleet is already in action. But at this juncture, something happened, so it was no wonder that Qin Tian lost his temper.

   "Your Majesty, it is true that we did not think carefully about this matter. We greatly underestimated the courage of the Spaniards, and we never thought that they would dare to intervene." The prime minister of the empire, Bi Luo, smiled wryly.

   Indeed, Spain dared to recover Gibraltar at this time, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations. After all, Spain has been in decline for many years. Moreover, their kings and ministers have long since lost their aggressiveness. In the last world war, they didn't even have the courage to fight. But now, they dare to **** food from the tiger's mouth. Isn't that just asking for death? You know, the current German Empire is the most powerful country in the world. Once Germany gets angry, Spain can be easily wiped out. Therefore, everyone can't help feeling that the Spaniards are a little too courageous. In other words, the heads of their king and ministers were kicked by donkeys together.

"Your Majesty, the Spaniards may think that the empire will not use force against them because of Gibraltar. That's why they dared to take back Gibraltar so recklessly. In addition, the Spaniards have been claiming sovereignty over Gibraltar for hundreds of years. There are indeed different Few countries recognize their sovereignty over Gibraltar. Perhaps this is their strength!" Foreign Secretary Wahit said.

"Hmph! Why should we pay attention to their statement? If such a simple statement can work, then the Empire can declare that the whole world belongs to the Empire!" Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff von Falken Marshal Hein said disdainfully.

   "Haha, this is a good idea. We can declare that the whole world belongs to the empire." Prime Minister Bilo laughed.

   "It needs to be recognized by other countries! If the empire really does that, it may make the empire a target of public criticism and the target of siege by other countries." Wahit said.

   "The current situation of the empire is not much better than this. We are also under siege by other countries." Marshal Reinhard Scheer, Minister of the Navy, said.

   "Okay, don't say these are useless. Now, how do we deal with Spain. This is the most important thing at the moment!" Qin Tian said.

  Germany's goal is of course to dominate the world, everyone knows this. Even Germany's enemies knew it. That's why they will unite against Germany. However, it is one thing to know it well, and quite another to publicize it publicly. That would make Germany truly the enemy of all other countries. Qin Tian would not do such a stupid thing.

"Your Majesty, the Spaniards have now announced to the world that they have recovered Gibraltar. If we adopt the previous method, it will be inappropriate. After all, although the Empire is the world's most powerful country, Spain is a neutral country. If it invades, I am afraid it will be jointly condemned by other countries. In that case, it will have a great impact on the image of the empire. At the same time, it will not be conducive to the empire's future leadership of the world." Prime Minister Biluo said.

   "Is that the case? In that case, wouldn't we be unable to obtain Gibraltar." Qin Tian frowned. If we get Gibraltar, it will have a very big impact on the empire's global strategy. After all, with the increasing exchanges between the East and the West, the Mediterranean Sea and the Suez Canal have become more and more busy. What's more, there are a series of countries in the Mediterranean region that Germany needs to block and suppress.

"Your Majesty, we may think of other ways. For example, hold peace talks with the Spaniards and get them to agree to lease Gibraltar to us as a military base. In this way, the problem can be solved very well." Wahit suggested .

   "Lease? Will the Spaniard agree?" Qin Tian frowned. It costs money to lease, and if it is directly occupied by the military, it belongs to the empire.

"Your Majesty, Spain is a small country after all, and their military strength is also very weak. Gibraltar is not very useful to them. If we ask them to rent, they should agree. Of course, we will also rent Talk to them if you can, preferably a nominal rent payment," Wachter said.

Qin Tian nodded: "If that's the case, it's pretty much the same. If the Spaniards are sensible, they will lease Gibraltar to us. The rent should be as low as one mark. In addition, the lease period is ninety-nine years. Of course, It seems that the Spaniards will suffer a lot. However, the empire will remember them."

   The rent of one mark and the lease term of ninety-nine, the ministers are very speechless. This is simply stingy. Still, it would be very good for the empire if the Spaniards agreed.

  Foreign Minister Wahit's face is not very good. In his opinion, this is simply impossible. As long as the Spaniard's brain is not caught by the door. They would not agree to the demands of the German Empire.

"If the diplomatic peace talks are unsuccessful, we must also be prepared to launch military operations. In any case, the empire is the most powerful country in the world. And Gibraltar is so important to the empire. Therefore, we must win Gibraltar, no matter what method is used. As for the crime of invasion, this is actually very easy to solve. We can just find an excuse and land in Gibraltar. In the face of absolute force superiority, the Spaniards will choose to succumb." Qin Tian said. Didn't the American emperors of later generations often make up some excuses and then invade other countries? Although, many countries will protest, but there is a fart in the protest! Isn't the US Emperor still doing its own thing?

  Although what Qin Tian said is a set of robber theory. But the military and political ministers of the empire nodded repeatedly, with a look of deep approval. This era was originally like this. Whoever has the bigger fist has the final say. Other weak and small countries can only survive under the oppression of big countries.
