On the calm Adriatic Sea, huge steel warships ride the wind and waves. This is a fleet of one battleship, two light cruisers and two destroyers. The battleship is the battleship "Han Wudi" of the third fleet of the Chinese Navy. This
At that time, the battleship was responsible for sending the Crown Prince Wang Zirui and Foreign Minister Gu Weijun and his party to Yast safely. Above the fleet, several aircraft were hovering, which were from the Chinese Navy.
The USS Putuoshan aircraft carrier and its aircraft carrier battle group entered the Adriatic Sea in the name of exercises. In fact, this was the commander of the Third Fleet General Wu Zhiyuan, who made a special trip to the emperor.
Prince Wang Zirui's safety arrangements!
"Your Highness, I just received a telegram. The Austro-Hungarian Foreign Minister Earl Leopold von Bercidord and the Empire's Ambassador to Austro-Hungarian Empire Shen Ruilin have been waiting for us in Aster!" Foreign Minister Gu Weijun said
!
"Well! How long will it take for us to arrive in Aster?" Wang Zirui asked. His inspection in the Third Fleet these days has made him very satisfied! As one of the three major fleets of the Imperial Navy, the Third Fleet has excellent weapons.
The soldiers were also well-trained and deserved the title of the brave Imperial Navy!
"I asked the captain. At our current speed, we will be able to arrive in Aster tomorrow afternoon!" Gu Weijun said.
Wang Zirui nodded and said nothing more. He looked up at the plane hovering in the sky and shook his head. In his opinion, there was actually no need to make such a big fanfare. With China's current strength, is there anyone else
Do you dare to be ill-intentioned to him? That's simply seeking death!
Chinese Crown Prince Wang Zirui and Foreign Minister Gu Weijun and his group arrived at the Earster Austria-Hungarian Foreign Minister Leopold von Bercidord personally went to the dock to greet him.
, Chinese Ambassador to Austro-Hungary, Shen Ruilin, was also on the dock!
"Your Highness, welcome to the Austro-Hungarian Empire! Thank you very much for attending Your Majesty's funeral!" said Count Leopold von Bercidord. Although, German Emperor William II arrived in person
Vienna attended the funeral of Franz Joseph I, which made many people from the Austro-Hungarian Empire dissatisfied with China's only sending the crown prince to attend the funeral. But Count Leopold von Bercidord
As someone who came to greet him, he didn't dare to show it at all. After all, China is a veritable world's largest power!
"Hello, the Lord Foreign Minister! The death of His Majesty Joseph I is sad. This is the loss of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the whole world!" Wang Zirui said with a serious face. The emperor has passed away, if he has a smile on his face.
, that's a bit unreasonable!
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Shen Ruilin, the Chinese Ambassador to Austro-Hungary, also saluted Wang Zirui and his party.
After greetings on the pier, everyone got on the car prepared by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. According to the itinerary, they would go directly to the Ester Railway Station and take the train to Vienna. In this way, they would be able to arrive tomorrow morning!
At 3 pm, the special train departed from the Ester Railway Station. The Austro-Hungarian Foreign Minister Leopold von Bercidord was in Wang Zirui's carriage for a while before saying goodbye. Wang Zirui and his team traveled all the way.
Tired, and need rest time!
Wang Zirui sat on the sofa and looked at the scene outside the car window, and was a little excited for a moment. This place belongs to the southern coastal plain of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and is a relatively prosperous area. However, it has long been unable to compare with China!
After the rapid development, China has far surpassed this country that was originally known as the second strongest in Europe! The Austro-Hungarian Empire, composed of more than ten kingdoms, principalities and marquis, was a world-class power before the war, although it was more than
Not even above Britain and Germany, they are also in the second tier of power in the entire Europe! With the help of this world war, the Austro-Hungarian Empire has become one of the three most powerful countries in the world. However, it is ranked first
China and Germany, no matter which country, can easily destroy the Austro-Hungarian Empire! However, neither country wants the Austro-Hungarian Empire to completely turn to the other side, so they have never taken action! However, everyone
Know that this situation will not continue forever. As the contradiction between China and Germany becomes increasingly prominent, there will inevitably be a war between the two countries! At that time, the Austro-Hungarian Empire will inevitably need it.
Take the team! If you stand on the side of the winner, the Austro-Hungarian Empire will undoubtedly be even stronger! However, if you stand on the side of the loser, the Austro-Hungarian Empire will be completely finished!
Soon, Foreign Minister Gu Weijun and Chinese Ambassador to Austro-Hungary, Shen Ruilin, arrived at Wang Zirui's carriage.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, there are some situations that Ambassador Shen needs to report to you!" Gu Weijun said.
"Oh? What happened?" Wang Zirui raised his eyebrows and asked. Could it be that there would be any surprises when he came to attend the funeral of Emperor Franz Joseph I this time?
"Your Highness, in recent days, the kings or heads of government from all European countries have arrived in Vienna! Your Highness was unable to arrive in time, which made the royal families of many European countries dissatisfied with us! Especially the German crown prince, they have been provoking everywhere and inspiring them.
The hostility of all countries towards us!" Ambassador Shen Ruilin said! At this moment, Vienna is like a stage, with all kinds of people performing on the stage, and the German Crown Prince William is undoubtedly the most dedicated one! It seems that
He will not miss any opportunity to be embarrassed with China!
"Oh? We came from China from all the way. It would be nice to be able to arrive before the funeral. What else do they have to say?" Wang Zirui frowned. European countries are so close to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, so they can arrive in advance.
, Of course there is no problem with this! But China is on the other side of the earth! Being able to arrive within one month is enough to give the Austro-Hungarian Empire face!
"Your Highness, the most important point is that German Emperor William II will personally attend the funeral of Austrian Franz Joseph I, but His Majesty did not come. Therefore, this has become the focus of attacks in European countries!" Gu Weijun said.
If Germany also sends the crown prince to participate, then there is naturally nothing to say! But now, Germany is the German Emperor William II who came here in person, and China only sent the crown prince, which shows a different story!
"Hmph! I'll attend the funeral of Austrian Franz Joseph I, which is already very proud of them! My father is the emperor of the world's largest power. The current Austro-Hungarian Empire does not have such honor yet!" Wang Zirui
He said coldly. Since China won the final victory of the World War, Wang Yuze has rarely left the country. Generally speaking, the monarchs of other countries come to China, or China sends officials to other countries!
"Your Highness, Pope Benedict XV and Vatican Secretary of State Mariano Rambora also arrived in Vienna! Pope Pius X will personally preside over the funeral of Franz Joseph I! At the banquet a few days ago,
Pope Benedict XV openly claimed that pagans from the East posed a serious threat to the entire Western world, and called on the entire Western world to unite and fight with the East! It is obvious that they are completely for us!"
Ambassador Shen Ruilin said.
"Did he think that old guy Benedict XV, can he be enemies with us if he ruled the spiritual world of Westerners? After all, this is a secular world!" Wang Zirui said with some dissatisfaction. These guys are like fleas.
Likewise, it keeps causing trouble for China. Although this is insignificant trouble, this feeling is still very unpleasant!
"Your Highness, Pope Benedict XV has a transcendent status. Most of the people in the Western world are their followers. If it is not necessary, we should not break with them openly!" Gu Weijun reminded!
Wang Zirui nodded. The last time in the Vatican, the Chinese army slapped the Vatican hard, making the Vatican lose face in front of the whole world. This also made Pope Benedict XV even more hated China!
, There are not many people in China who believe in Catholicism, and China is a country that places imperial power first. No matter how hard Piushen ten years work, it will not have any impact on China. Internationally, China is the world's most powerful country, the Chinese Navy
Almost all the oceans in the world are taken for yourself! Under such circumstances, no country dares to be an enemy of China!
On the morning of June 27, the special train arrived at the Vienna Railway Station. Austria-Hungarian Prime Minister Mario Weber and envoys from various countries to the Austria-Hungarian Empire came to greet Wang Zirui and his group. However, the monarchs who had arrived in Vienna were
No appearance. Such a scene made Chinese Foreign Minister Gu Weijun a little dissatisfied!
"Hmph! Do you have no time to greet His Highness the Crown Prince when they arrive in Vienna?" Gu Weijun said with some dissatisfaction!
"His Excellency Minister of Foreign Affairs, we just got the news that the German Crown Prince and Pope Benedict XV jointly held a banquet, and the monarchs of various countries were invited!" Shen Ruilin, the Chinese Ambassador to Austro-Hungary, said in a low voice!
"It's still morning, what kind of banquet is held? Is this a warning to us?" Gu Weijun said coldly! Then he took a few steps forward and whispered in Wang Zirui's ear!
"Your Excellency, it seems that the monarchs of all countries who have arrived in Vienna are very busy!" Wang Zirui said with a smile.
"Your Highness, we don't know this! However, Your Highness, our country's Crown Prince has been busy with His Majesty's funeral, so I can't come to the train station to greet you. I'm very sorry!" Prime Minister Mario Weber said quickly. No matter what other countries are like
For China, the Austro-Hungarian Empire must not participate! (To be continued. Please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!)
