Chapter 1687 Mutual Beware

For Gris Allen, this was a surprise. One of his tasks was to come here to make friends with envoys from various countries, and even mingle with them.

The small principalities of various countries in Europe have pieced together the European continent. These small principalities seem to have a small area, but they are actually quite powerful. Those countries that have outlets to the sea all want to stretch out their overseas colonies. Guilty hands.

It is a pity that some small inland principalities have no chance at all, and although some have access to the sea, their own country's economic strength and national strength do not allow them to build too many warships. Without that condition, let alone It's a first-class sailing battleship.

To build the warships they want, they have to pay a lot of money, and the first-level and second-level sailing warships belong to the most advanced technology at present, and it is not something other countries can get.

Whether it is the United Kingdom or France, they are still quite strict about these advanced shipbuilding technologies. It is almost impossible for them to easily let go of the sail-class battleship technology.

And even with these technologies, they still have to build warships by themselves, and they must have a considerable number of craftsmen and materials, which is another troublesome thing.

But now, the ambassador of the White Iron Kingdom, Gris Allen, actually welcomes them to purchase some of their warships. To them, this is like picking up for nothing.

You know, this is a first-class sailing warship, it is a huge monster on the sea, a ferocious beast, they didn't expect that they could order it from the White Iron Kingdom.

This time, Gris Allen told them that there are some slightly older warships in service in the White Iron Kingdom, and they can also buy them back at a discount.

"Your tea!" Butler Alessandro brought the tea to Gris Allen.Looking at the emerald green ball of the teacup, Gris Allen shook his head in his heart, didn't he just hear that his boss loves coffee?Why has my temperament changed a lot recently and I'm drinking tea? What's so good about this thing?

These warships are really nothing to Gris Allen, especially after the arrival of his helpers from Bogotá, Colombia, America to St. Petersburg, Gris Allen has more confidence in his heart.

Every country has its own little Jiujiu in its heart. Even if they met in the embassy of the Iron Kingdom, and even met each other, they just smiled awkwardly at each other and left.

And now in the eyes of Gris Allen, the ambassador of the Iron Kingdom, it is an unusual thing.

Their purpose is very simple. They came to the embassy of the White Iron Kingdom not to catch up with people like Gris Allen, but to purchase warships and weapons.

The three most powerful women in Europe are going to teach this damn Frederick II a lesson.

On the other hand, Queen Elizabeth is actually a little dissatisfied in her heart. In fact, they have already started to annex the small surrounding countries, but what the Iron Kingdom is doing now is a bit too much. Arming their enemies with their weapons, This is not a good thing.

Because they know the national strength of their own country very clearly, they can't compete with these big countries at all.

The officers of Gris Allen recorded the type of warship they requested, finalized the memorandum and the first draft of the agreement, collected some small deposits from them, and confirmed the delivery date with them.

Gris Allen doesn't quite understand Zeng Yunfeng's thoughts. At least for now, he thinks that too frequent changes are definitely not a good sign, and may even bring some troubles.

St. Petersburg, the current capital of Russia, is on the Baltic Sea, if there is a real fight.It is definitely a troublesome thing for them to travel upstream in a ship.

This is a first-class and second-class sailing warship. If it is sold by Britain and France, it will inevitably extort countless money from them.

Producing high-performance artillery is also a hassle for them.

For those countries with sea estuaries and long coastlines but not strong economic strength, this kind of temptation is completely unimaginable.

This is an extremely humiliating thing for them. There are many wars between big countries, and they are usually the ones who are injured in the end.

But sometimes things have been decided, and they have to be done. He also has to get things done here in advance and go back quickly. He is not in Bogota, and he always feels that his boss will make something wrong.

If there are too many ants, the elephant will be killed. Even if Russia is backed by the ice and snow in the north, if a group attacks it, it will not be a good thing for Russia.

Although these countries are weak and small, and some countries are even less than half the size of a Russian territory, they are still European countries after all.

But now there are people who sell these things, and of course they are willing to buy them.

It may even bring some troubles to the Romanov dynasty, but Queen Elizabeth can't stand up and say, don't buy their weapons, I will capture your land in the future, it would seem a bit too stupid.

Even if some countries do not need to purchase warships, such as some small inland countries, they can still purchase additional war materials.

As for these duchies and small countries, before the Russian royal family did not completely tear themselves apart, it was absolutely impossible for Queen Elizabeth to say that in front of everyone.

For small countries like them, once a big country goes to war, for them, they have to choose a team. Once they are in the wrong team, their country's territory will be occupied and divided.

In the eyes of the envoys of various countries, this is an act of a fool. Gris Allen must be stupid if he sells the warships that are in service in his own country.

Some are even more extreme. In very unlucky times, even the fiefdoms of the entire country will be taken away by others, and they can only watch obediently, not even daring to develop too much hatred for these big countries.

At this time, they had to pinch their noses to eat the bitter fruit.

In addition, envoys like them don't have to worry about other things. Their country only needs to deliver according to the agreement after the time is up.

The sale of the battleships of the White Iron Kingdom suddenly turned St. Petersburg into a vegetable market.

What's more, she is preparing to accumulate strength to join forces with Austria and France to launch an action against Prussia, and she has even thought of a plan.

Elizabeth didn't want to get into this kind of trouble in a short time, at least she wasn't ready yet.

Prussia's ambitions for external expansion in recent years are too obvious. He not only robbed Austria's Silesia, but also showed his fangs to the surrounding countries. Their ambitions and attacks are too obvious, and fools can see them out.

Frederick II wanted to annex the surrounding countries, especially the principalities under the Holy Roman Empire of Germany.

It is a pity that in Queen Elizabeth's view, Frederick II failed to grow a good set of teeth, and Prussia is not enough to stir up troubles in the European continent.

In the north, Russia is extremely powerful. Under her wise leadership, Russia's national strength is gradually increasing.

Prussia is just a small country that has just risen along the coast of the Baltic Sea. Even its territory is divided into east and west. What power can it compete with the mighty Romanov dynasty?
