When envoys from countries around the Baltic coast and Britain sent letters and news back to their own countries.

There are two people in Bogota, Kingdom of White Iron, who are also discussing this matter.

And the two people who were discussing were none other than Maria and Steven.

"Steven, why do you think the consul gave five warships to Russia?" Maria asked tentatively.

Steven smiled and said, "Your Highness, I don't think this is something you need to worry about. The kingdom has already planned its strategy for Europe."

"Even if you hear a few words, I still want you to pretend that you don't know."

"Can't I care about it!" Maria was a little embarrassed.

Steven shook his head, "Not only do I not recommend you to do this, but Lord Allen also made an explanation before leaving Bogotá, I hope you will not interfere in any political and military affairs of the White Iron Kingdom, this will help you stabilize your position advantageous."

"I believe you can see that the Consul never talks about politics and military matters with you except for discussing art and music with you."

"I will not talk to you about the internal affairs of the Baitie Kingdom. This is a clear line. I hope Her Royal Highness will not cross this line."

Princess Maria's face is very ugly. She said these words today, in fact, she did not have the purpose of inquiring news for Spain.

Today, countries with powerful fleets at sea can be counted on two hands, and Spain is one of them.

With regard to ocean domination, although Spain started early, its follow-up force became weaker and weaker, especially after countries entered into ocean competition, this situation became more and more obvious.

The White Iron Kingdom's move is undoubtedly to drag all European countries into the wave of overseas domination.

The strength of the Nordic countries betting on the sea is actually not as strong as imagined, and they also missed the best time.

However, if there is a country called Baitie Kingdom to help or even provoke it, there may be an unexpected ending.

Portugal and Spain, the two countries where the Iberian peninsula is located, are the most worried about this.

If it is said who was the first or the first to benefit from ocean-going trade and colonization, there is no doubt that they were them, followed by the Netherlands, Britain, France, etc. who joined later.

But the cake is only this big after all, if everyone wants to take a bite of this cake, those who have eaten the cake before will eat less.

Steven is actually opposed to such a diplomatic strategy of the White Iron Kingdom in his heart.

As a kingdom based on the sea, he is too aware of his own affairs.

The population, foundation, resources, land and national power of the White Iron Kingdom are far behind Europe.

He only gradually learned about all this after studying at Colombian University in Bogota. Most of his brothers had fought at sea, but his understanding of the world was not only the sea but also the sea.

A series of countries such as Europe and Asia are not within the scope of their consideration.

But now, after further studies, he discovered that there are many forces and countries on this map, and they all set their sights on the ocean.

This is very detrimental to a country based on the ocean. He really doesn't understand why the consul wants to take out the ocean cake, or even cut it.

This is tantamount to cutting meat from one's own mouth and sending it to someone else's.

They can eat alone, even if there are competitors, they are just old friends from the past.

The kingdom handled them with ease.

But now, if several regions are divided in this ocean, and countries such as Russia and Prussia are allowed to join in, this will cause them a lot of trouble.

The sea seems vast, but in fact, more and more lands are known through exploration, but less and less unknown lands.

If every country reaches out to the ocean, one day this vast ocean will be crowded with people, warships and merchant ships everywhere.

The interests of the ocean are naturally diluted, which is very detrimental to the White Iron Kingdom.

People have their own desires and ambitions, and they all want to eat more, so there is no doubt that war will be the only ending.

At that time, it will not only be the war in the Baltic Sea that will be provoked, but the war will also affect the entire world and the entire ocean.

By then, the situation faced by the White Iron Kingdom may be completely different from what it is now, and even unexpected changes may occur.

Steven couldn't understand what the current consul of the White Body Iron Country, Roy Smith, thought, but the national strategy came from the office of the Bogotá consul, and he had no ability or right to comment on it.

He could only watch helplessly as the situation slowly turned in a direction he could not have expected.

As for Zeng Yunfeng, of course he already has a plan for this.

No matter how vast the ocean is, it will be fully explored by humans one day.

But what the White Iron Kingdom lacks most now is time. Time is extremely precious to the White Iron Kingdom, even higher than those oceanic territories.

For Zeng Yunfeng, obtaining more ocean territory is not a good thing for the kingdom.

Now, the ocean territory of the White Iron Kingdom is vast enough, and its tentacles have already extended to the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, and it will be very difficult to extend further afield.

Although it is a good habit to support war with war, it also depends on the national strength of one's own country.

Compared with the national strength of the Iron Kingdom, it is indeed far behind Europe, and the development of the ocean is definitely not a short-term matter.

The last thing Zeng Yunfeng hopes is that European countries have enough time to develop the ocean, and the only thing that can affect or even hinder the pace of countries is the struggle of interests.

As for preventing them from entering the ocean, it is almost impossible.

In the next one to two centuries, all countries will set their sights on the ocean, and whether the White Iron Kingdom stops it or not, this is an inevitable trend.

Instead of holding back everyone's footsteps like Britain and France, it is better to actively throw out an olive branch and help other countries form naval fleets.

First, you can let them fight each other, and second, use the hands of other countries to strengthen your country's navy.

Shipbuilding technology will not be completely leaked out because of cover-ups, but technological innovation will be further improved due to production.

Zeng Yunfeng knows very well that the current sailing warships will one day go to strangers, and even the giant ships and cannons of the future will also decline.

Everything must be forward-looking. If it is limited to the current situation, the Baitie Kingdom, a country based on the sea, will soon lose what he is proud of.

Their navy will soon slowly enter the phase-out stage from the advanced ranks of the world. .

This is the unavoidable fate of the White Iron Kingdom, and what he can do is to use this opportunity to win as much time as possible for the White Iron Kingdom to accumulate and produce.

In this way, the national strength of the White Iron Kingdom can compete with European countries in the future.

Only then will they have the confidence to say that they are also a powerful country in the future.
