Chapter 367 Ironclad Ship


Chapter 367 Ironclad Ship

Ernst: "Very good, you will handle this matter yourself. Deal with the Haitians first, and then help them get in touch with the Americans. This is a job that is beneficial to all three parties. , But don’t expose our identity, the best contact can be a French person.”

Thomas understood: “Don’t worry, Your Highness! It is a channel for French slave traders, and it has nothing to do with East Africa. After all, who is it?” Everyone knows that Haiti was a colony of the French.”

White Americans today would never imagine that such a thing as “life is precious” would have happened in the past life. After all, the issue of slaves turning over and making decisions is of great significance to this era. It’s unimaginable for white Americans.

If the plantation owners in the south knew what their descendants would be like in the future, they would definitely choose to carry out the war to the end. As long as I don't carry out social reforms, Nig will never be able to stand up.

History is always so interesting. For example, the Mamluks who once ruled Egypt were also slaves introduced by Egypt, and later became the masters of Egypt. Now the whole of Egypt is stamped with the Mamluk brand. If it weren't for Ali, the airborne Albanian, it would still be the same now. The Mamluks ruled Egypt.

This is also the case with the demise of Rome. It was replaced by the Germanic barbarians of the past, and they still used the banner of Rome to bluff and deceive every day.

Ernst is not belittling Nigel, at least Nigel and the Jews in the United States are the two groups of people who are the best at acting. They both seek privileges under the banner of racial discrimination, and at the same time try to morally kidnap the entire world, as if the whole world The whole world owes them.

All the Nigs left on the African continent are the targets of Ernst's wariness. Ernst just drove the black people to West Africa before, but now it seems that it is still not safe.

The fertility of this group of people in modern society is too terrible, unless the pictures are removed. However, modern society also claims to be a civilized society. In fact, there are a large group of innocent holy mothers, but the folk customs are still "simple" Arabs will not encounter this problem, so we must be cautious in how to prevent black people from counterattacking the country they established.

"Fight fire with fire!" Ernst said to himself.

"Your Highness, what did you say?" Thomas asked.

Ernst: "Nothing, you go and do things first!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Just now a new idea was formed in Ernst's head Thoughts, can’t black people give birth? In fact, it is not a big deal. In fact, before entering industrial civilization, all races could have children.

For example, in the previous life, the Arabs who continued to maintain their traditions maintained a very high fertility rate. With the oil business, they expanded the total number of citizens several times in the desert.

As long as Ernst places some backward countries on the African continent and puts them between black people and East Africa, he can solve the black countercurrent.

If possible, East Africa can also direct these countries to engage in aggressive wars from behind to further reduce the living space of Nige. Based on the experience of previous lives, this method is completely feasible, and the international community often responds to Turning a blind eye to the conflicts on the African continent, Africa's Renjunmen still threatens Europe and the United States with its colonial history, and the effect is pretty good.

Thinking of this, Ernst felt that this plan was very good. It could be implemented when the time came in the future, but it was unlikely to be possible now. The plan could first meet the immigration needs of East Africa.

"Dong dong dong..." At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Ernst: "Come in!"

The person coming is Tom, the current butler of Hohenzollernburg.

Tom: "Your Highness, the ship schedule for Trieste has been arranged, and you can go to East Africa at any time." Ernst: "Yes, Tom, when I go to East Africa, I will take care of the family affairs." Forgive me, you should take care of the affairs in Europe for me first."

Tom: "Don't worry, Your Highness, you will let me go east, never west, even if you let me. Even if you die immediately, you will have no complaints.”

Ernst: "What's the matter with death? Your family has served Hechingen for generations. I trust you."

It sounds good, but in fact, Tom can still betray the Hechingen royal family. Ernst just needs a trusted person to stay in Europe so that he can supervise the operation of the Hechingen Consortium. The actual control is still the headquarters of the Hechingen Bank that has been moved to East Africa. In the East, Tom is Ernst. Designated imperial envoy.

Tom: "Your Highness, and the ironclad Archduke Ferdinand built by the Austro-Hungarian Empire that you asked me to go to Trieste to check out is currently 30% complete."

Ernst: "It's very good. I think when it appears in front of my father-in-law, he must be very proud of it. "

A few months ago, Ernst promised to buy two sailing warships for the East African Navy led by Ferdinand to stabilize Ferdinand's mentality and let him see that he was doing something. A promising job, the emperor of the Mexican government-in-exile, get out of here, is there any value in being the commander-in-chief of the navy in East Africa?

Mexico is to the United States what the Sultanate of Zanzibar is to East Africa. In Ernst's opinion, the status of the emperor of Mexico is the same as that of the Sultan of Zanzibar. What good is a puppet?

If Mexico could really be independent, then Ernst would certainly not say that, and there was a very small possibility that he would encourage his father-in-law to jump into Mexico. Now Mexico has become the urinal of the United States, and it has no value at all. No, I went there and made a mess.

But these have nothing to do with the ironclad "Archduke Ferdinand" built by Ernst with his own money. The Archduke Ferdinand is related to Ernst's marriage, and Ernst still has two years to go. About to get married.

Think about it, every time Ferdinand went to the Austro-Hungarian Empire to sneak around, for fear of being discovered by others, Ernst felt a little sorry for his tool... Ah, no, it was his father-in-law.

The wedding will be held in Vienna, and Archduke Ferdinand will definitely be present. They are all Ferdinand’s old acquaintances from the nobility of various countries. Just think about it and you will know how many people will die.

Isn’t this the Emperor Maximiliano I of Mexico? Where have you been all these years? Why is there no news from you? I heard that you were robbed of the law, is it true? Although the guests would not say so, Ferdinand himself must have had some grudges.

However, what if someone really asked Ferdinand what he was doing recently? It's still possible, Commander-in-Chief of the East African Navy! That's something.

At this time, the "Archduke Ferdinand", a large ironclad with a displacement of 7,200 tons, is useful. Coupled with six 283mm large-caliber naval guns produced by Krupp, it has a powerful deterrent effect. The most important thing is It is named after Ferdinand himself, which can help Ferdinand save some face.

At least it proves that the East African navy still has strength. The current displacement of the main force of the Austro-Hungarian Navy, the Lissa, is only 7,000 tons. When the Archduke Ferdinand is completed, the East African navy will be full.

In fact, after the victory of the Italian-Austrian War, the Austro-Hungarian Navy also thought about building a commemorative battleship like the "Lisa" and increasing its naval strength. However, the Austro-Hungarian Empire really had no money. , or the Hungarian government does not agree to allocate funds.

Although the Austro-Hungarian Navy's plan was finally approved, it was delayed for several years by compromises. They could only envy the East African Navy's generosity.

However, all this was done without the knowledge of Archduke Ferdinand himself. Poor Archduke Ferdinand was still complacent about extorting two wooden sail steam battleships from Ernst.
