"The German Empire is really powerful! Along the way, their warships are everywhere!" Prince Abdul said.
Although he is distinguished, he is the prince of Naizh Kingdom. However, the current Najd Kingdom is not the local tyrant Saudi Arabia ofter generations, it is still a very poor country. As a prince, he just has an extra identity. Compared with the powerful German Empire, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is undoubtedly much weaker. Even, he was a little worried, how would the German Empire respond to them this time, and would their demands be met? Thinking of this, Prince Abdul felt a little inferior.
"Yes! The German Empire is too powerful. Even the British Empire, known as the empire on which the sun never sets, was defeated by them." Prince Salim also sighed.
The original Kuwait was just a county under the rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. After receiving the help and support of Britain, they seeded in bing independent from the Ottoman Turkish Empire and became an independent country. However, Kuwait also became a British protectorate.
It''s just that, apart from a slightly more important geographical location, Kuwait has nothing else to offer. This makes the British pay little attention to Kuwait. Therefore, Kuwait is nothing but a very poor and backward small country.
"The world war is over, and the Germans have begun to receive the fruits of victory. Their army is attacking Egypt, and the Middle East will follow. If we can''t get the support of the Germans this time, then maybe our country will It will be attacked by the Germans. This will be a disaster for us!" Prince Salim continued.
Kuwait were so small that the Germans could crush them with one finger. Even the Kingdom of Najd, which is muchrger than the Kingdom of Kuwait, is nothing in front of the Germans. This makes them very passive in the face of Germany''s strength. Of course, this is also impossible. Small countries are like this.
If a small country wants to survive in this world, it has to rely on a big country. Before, both Kuwait and the Kingdom of Najd depended on the United Kingdom. Now that the British are down, they have to hug the Germans'' thighs. Only by relying on a powerful country can their interests be guaranteed.
While Prince Abdul and Prince Salim were talking, the foreign ministers of the two countries were also having secret talks in the cabin.
Compared to the two princes, these two foreign ministers are undoubtedly the main representatives of the negotiations. The two princes were just sent to Germany as hostages. The specific content has to be discussed with the Germans by them.
"Brother Ghazi, will our trip to Germany go well this time?" A middle-aged Arab man asked. He is Hamid, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Kuwait.
"I don''t know, I hope God will bless us. However, we are a small country no matter in front of the British or in front of Germany. As long as we can meet the requirements of those big countries, no matter how bad we are, our safety can still be guaranteed. Our country, The poption is sparse and poor. Those big countries don''t even look down on us." said Ghazi, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Nezhi.
Of course, his words reveal a deep sense of helplessness. If possible, who wouldn''t want their country to be rich in resources and populous?
Hamid nodded, he also thinks that they have no ce for big powers to conspire. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much at all.
The speed of the light cruiser was very fast, and it arrived in Wilhelmshaven on January 28.
"God! So many ships? The German navy is really too powerful!" When the light cruiser entered the naval port and saw the huge capital ships, representatives from the Kingdom of Kuwait and the Kingdom of Nejd all expressed their gratitude. Was shocked.
Although, the German Navy has been divided into five fleets. However, apart from the Mediterranean Fleet that has entered the Mediterranean Sea to perform missions, only the Antic Fleet has moved its home port to Scapa Flow. They are only temporarily stationed in Scapa Flow, and will further search for good ports in the future. Of course, the Antic Fleet set its sights on the Portuguese Azores. It''s just that the German navy is still trying to figure out how to get the Azores from Portugal.
The warships moored in Wilhelmshaven mainly belong to the Pacific Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet. The capital ship of the local fleet is still under construction.
The Pacific Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet, as the German army is about tounch an attack on India and Southeast Asia, are about to leave the German maind. But even so, those huge battleships like hills still shocked these country bumpkins from the Middle East beyond words.
"It is indeed the world''s most powerful country that defeated the British Empire! Its military strength is too strong!" Prince Salim sighed.
"The German Empire is indeed the most powerful!" Prince Abdul''s eyes were full of admiration.
German Foreign Minister Wascht personally came to Wilhelmshaven to greet them, which ttered the delegations of the two countries even more. When Wahit told them that the Emperor of the Empire would entertain them with a banquet tomorrow night, it made these representatives very happy. After all, before they came, they never expected that the Kaiser would receive them. Now, Wacht told them that the Kaiser would meet them, which undoubtedly made them feel that this trip to Germany should go smoothly.
On the evening of January 29, Kaiser Qin Tian hosted a banquet in the Imperial Pce, entertaining representatives of the Kingdom of Najd and the Kingdom of Kuwait.
When Qin Tian appeared in the banquet hall, everyone stood up and saluted Qin Tian.
"Good evening everyone!" Qin Tian said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, I am so happy to see you." Prince Abdul couldn''t restrain the joy in his heart, and said.
Qin Tian couldn''t help being taken aback, this was the first time he encountered such a thing. The fanatical admiration in Prince Abdul''s eyes surprised him even more.
"Prince Abdul, nice to meet you!" There was a smile on the corner of Qin Tian''s mouth.
"God! His Majesty the Emperor has spoken to me." Prince Abdul did not expect Qin Tian to be so amiable.
"Your Highness, please don''t lose your temper!" Ghazi, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Najd, hastily pulled Prince Abdul''s robe.
Prince Abdul realized his gaffe, and his face flushed with embarrassment.
This episode did not have any impact on the banquet. On the contrary, it made the atmosphere of the banquet much more rxed. The representatives of the Kingdom of Kuwait and the Kingdom of Nejd continued topliment the strength of the German Empire, which made the German ministers who attended the banquet very satisfied.
