Did the British Empire retreat?
What an incredible thing this is, but everything happened in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.
Hesbet Feng, the foreign minister, was only on standby at the side as an observer throughout the whole process. He personally saw how this transaction was created out of nothing.
It is even more astonishing how William IV used all the advantages he created to achieve his goals, especially this time he used the Tsarist Russia Empire to threaten the Prime Minister of the British Empire.
Obviously, this trading territory was proposed by William IV, but now it has become an urgent request of the Tsarist Russia for the Netherlands to trade. The change of active and passive identities here makes the Netherlands a pressure in the British Empire. Viscount Palmerston's last lucky chip.
Seeing this, he couldn't help taking a deep breath of cold air with Prime Minister Tolbeck.
Your Majesty, it is indeed the one that he admires the most, His Majesty William IV. It is extraordinary!
An hour later, only King William IV, Prime Minister Tolbeck and Foreign Minister Heisbet Feng were left in the Royal Palace of the Netherlands.
After the two parties fought hard just now, the final plan was finally released.
The British Empire counted Canada starting from the Queen Charlotte Islands in the Pacific Ocean, along the Pease River to Great Slave Lake, until the north of the mouth of the Char River to the Netherlands.
"We're equivalent to getting the Queen Charlotte Islands, the whole of British Columbia, Alberta, the Yukon Territory, the Northwest Territories and including Nunavut, especially the Arctic Islands that were not originally included in Palmerston. It was given to us in the Netherlands as a gift.
However, one thing I don't understand is that when Palmerston proposed to assign all of Saskatchewan to His Majesty, why did His Majesty refuse, only the West? "
Hesbet Feng was a little puzzled.
Without waiting for William IV to exit, Tolbek, who was beside him, explained his confusion.
"Because, Your Majesty doesn't want the Netherlands to directly border the United States too much now. Don't forget, we just hit the United States on the head in the Hawaiian Islands. At this time, if there are too many borders with the United States, then with the advantages of the United States , it is very likely that we will become the object of American venting.
Moreover, the British Prime Minister Palmerston is not a vegetarian. He wants the United States to teach us a lesson, so as to balance the relationship between the Netherlands and the United States. This old guy, at such an age, still likes it the same playing tricks"
Hesbet Feng woke up.
"The UK wants the US to check and balance us."
Tolbeck added: "He is also using us to check and balance the United States and prevent the United States from really successfully implementing the Monroe Doctrine to dominate the Americas."
William IV shook his head and said, "Actually, why aren't we using them?
The U.S. has been wary of the British Empire since its founding. Although we took it first in Hawaii, the U.S. is now in civil strife and has no time to take care of us.
And these few years will be our rare best time to consolidate our rule here."
Tolbeck's eyes flashed suddenly, revealing a scorching light, and he probed William IV: "Your Majesty, is the next step going to blackmail Denmark?"
"Why Denmark?" William IV looked at Tolbeck with a smile.
In the Dutch cabinet, it seems that the person who understands him the most is the old opponent of his father William III.
Sure enough, there is an old man in the family who has a treasure. Although this Tolbek has thorns, it depends on who has subdued him, but now it is very easy to use.
Hesbet Feng was stunned for a moment at first. He was not the Minister of Foreign Affairs. He quickly thought of a possibility.
"His Majesty took the Alaska Peninsula and the Alexander Islands from the Tsarist Empire, and established that we have a large rear in the northeastern Pacific.
It was the first time that we had our territory in North America. It was under the circumstances that Viscount Palmerston did not know that he agreed to trade more than half of Canada's territory with His Majesty.
In particular, he even gave the Arctic Islands to His Majesty when His Majesty seemed to be talking casually. Hehe, he definitely thought that even if the Netherlands took this place, it would be sandwiched between the United States, the British Empire and Tsarist Russia. , if he knew this, he would never make it so easy for us, or, in other words, give us the territory we want to be in a dilemma.
As these seemingly desolate and cold places fall into the hands of the Netherlands, as long as the Netherlands manages properly in the next ten years, in less than ten years, the integrated Netherlands will show what kind of attitude will be expected at that time.
From Baffin Bay, to Davis Strait, and then to Hudson Bay, the Netherlands has opened up the outlet of the Northwest Atlantic in an instant. If a waterway is found, then from Davis Strait or Baffin Bay in Baffin Island It can sail all the way to the northwest, eventually reaching the Arctic Ocean, and entering the Pacific Ocean from the Bering Strait.
It will be a strategic route, an important lifeline that can change the tide of battle, especially for the fleet.
For the Netherlands, it is very important. After all, in the current situation, the Netherlands is in a dispute with the United States over the Hawaiian Islands, and is at odds with the British Empire over Belgium. If these two countries block the Dutch waterway, then the Netherlands will Difficulty maintaining smooth communication with East India"
The mainland of the Netherlands, Western and Northern Canada, the Hawaiian Islands, the islands of New Guinea, the South Pacific Islands, the East Indies, and Guyana, Suriname, in the north and south, are the current territories of the Netherlands.
"The population of the Netherlands is only so much, and so many territories have become the limit of the population of the Netherlands. Your Majesty, then why did you just propose to the British Empire the idea of buying Queensland, Australia, and even double the price of the Alaska Peninsula."
You naturally think that Queensland, which is still desolate, is not as good as Alaska.
William IV knew that many people felt the same way today.
"The temperature in Queensland is very suitable for growing crops, and although the local harvest is good, although the fertile land of East India and New Guinea is not as good as that.
Queensland will be the biggest granary for our future development and population growth, and the coal mines in Queensland are currently unaware of the British Empire. In fact, there are abundant coal resources there.
And the Northern Territory, which appears to be barren, but I have received information that there are large deposits of iron ore and aluminum ore, which for us will be the source of the rapid industrialization of East India and New Guinea.
These are all untapped resources. The most important thing is that all of this is under the circumstance that the British Empire does not pay attention to Australia. Even if they pay attention, they only focus on places such as Victoria and Sydney and Melbourne in the south.
Back to the topic just now, according to the secret report I received, the combination of Bismarck and William I is not very peaceful recently, especially when we see that we are gaining more and more territory in the Pacific Ocean, they It's strange not to be moved.
As a powerful country, the shortcoming of the navy is the pain of the Kingdom of Prussia. Therefore, the secret security revealed that the Kingdom of Prussia is preparing to attack Denmark in the near future.
"what"
The two looked at William IV in disbelief, did they do it?
This word was spoken by His Majesty, which means that it is not a simple type of toothpicks, but shows that Prussia is going to be serious about Denmark?
But think about it, Denmark blocked Prussia's westward journey. Although Hanover was pro-Prussian, before 1837, it was under the jurisdiction of the same king as the British Empire, but the Kingdom of Hanover was passed down from male to female, and Queen Victoria's accession to the throne, Instead, the Kingdom of Hanover became independent.
William IV secretly said: "Frederick VII now has a headache too, because his lack of a queen has created a brewing storm that will eventually bring war to Denmark.
The Purdan War of 1863!
This day is the beginning of the battle for the rise of the Kingdom of Prussia towards the promotion of the empire. The first battle, the Netherlands, must think carefully about how to get the most benefits from this, otherwise, it will be a waste of his prophet's resources. .
William IV suddenly secretly said: I don't know, Prince Christian, my old acquaintance, do you remember that promise 5 years ago?
...
William IV is right. Now Frederick VII, who is already ill, is worrying about this matter.
Next to him is his collateral descendant and nephew-in-law, Prince Christian, his designated heir to the Danish throne.Did the British Empire retreat?
What an incredible thing this is, but everything happened in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.
