The Rise of the Empire

A chess board, two cups of coffee. Two of the top nobles in Europe. After the servants left, the two fell silent. "You have fallen into a nightmare." Ruprecht said first.

"It can also be said to be a prophecy. I also thought it was a nightmare at the beginning, but as I grew older, I realized that it might be true!" Princess Mary said with a wry smile.

"The laurel wreaths of the German kings rolled down into the mortal world?" the prince asked tentatively.

"My homeland is torn apart, and Germany is decimated!"

"And you tried to find a solution in the royal family, but no one understood? Have you thought of other ways?" The prince raised his eyebrows slightly, this question is very critical!

"I thought about the problem as a princess, but found that there is no way to prevent the nightmare from coming. You are different from me, or most of the royal family. It is difficult for me to describe you, my cousin."

"Very well, this is not a time traveler, but because of some metaphysical problems, he saw part of the future of history." The prince said with a long breath. Any contemporary prince will understand one problem, if the fist is not hard, it is useless! No matter how bad it is, you must know how to develop productivity, right? Or promote the development of productivity, and my cousin doesn't have this awareness at all!

She focused on internal improvement and relationship coordination. He didn't know why the world became what it was later, which meant that she only knew the result but not the process. She wanted to change within the system, and she was still trying to make ends meet even though she knew all the ills of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. And this is so much easier!

"Then why do you believe that I can help you?" Time Traveling still didn't understand why the other party was so persistent in bothering himself! This unscientific! Well, even the rather mysterious things like time travel have appeared, what else is unacceptable?

"I saw the end of almost everyone, the father who died before the empire collapsed, the future German emperor who lived alone, and the Turkish Empire that fell apart. But I didn't see your end. You seemed to disappear out of thin air." Princess Mary After a pause, he continued, "You are an odd number!"

"You are also an anomaly, because I didn't see your ending in my dream!" The two parties have established initial trust, so the best result that can strengthen this trust is naturally sympathy for each other. And such a reason can also explain his subsequent changes.

Many people have noticed the abnormal behavior of the young prince, but due to their identities, they can't do more duties. Since the Bavarian royal family can produce a rather wonderful Ludwig II, and another one who likes to climb the technology tree What can the prince do? Anyway, the prince has learned everything he should learn. It's still a long way from taking the throne.

And when the prince's efforts paid off, and when the cost was gradually recovered and he started to make money, no one jumped out to make a fuss about it! After all, no one has trouble with money, especially after two consecutive foreign orders were finalized in just a few days, the Bavarian royal family can obtain at least 400,000 pounds in net income by selling armor and shipyard profits! This is why the Austro-Hungarian Empire stepped up to get closer to its poor relatives!

"Compared to you, my so-called hard work these years is nothing but a joke." Princess Mary said with some shame: "I can't change anything, except to make my relatives look at me differently."

"Perhaps this is the difference between Prussia and Austria. The former values ​​the power in their own hands, while the latter uses diplomacy, marriage or other means to achieve their goals. In the end, it is Prussia that wins the German states. Not Austria." Princess Mary said thoughtfully.

"It's a pity that I'm just the prince of Bavaria, and the resources I can mobilize are very limited. Some things are difficult to do." The prince extended an olive branch.

"God allowed us to see the future at the same time, and we should work together to change this.

And this time, Prime Minister Taft's visit brought us an opportunity! said Princess Mary. "Is there anything else you need from me?" "

"Do what a member of the royal family should do. Our cause needs many people. The Austro-Hungarian Empire is a big country. There will always be some people who will stand by our side because of their beliefs and interests. We need a German-led alliance. "The prince doesn't trust the Hungarians, or in other words, their independence will happen sooner or later, and the rise of this kind of nationality is difficult to reverse.

"In addition, you can also serve as the link between the Bavarian royal family and the Habsburg royal family. There are many things that I can't do. But you are much more convenient."

"Of course I will try my best to do these things well." Princess Mary nodded. "In addition, I feel that as a future king, your ability in politics and dealing with people needs to be improved."

"Now, there are really few things we need to do most. The cooperation between Skoda and the Kingdom of Bavaria must be put on the agenda as soon as possible. This industrial body mainly based on arms and heavy industry is best located in Nuremberg. Here to your country The bohemian industrial area and the distance from the Ruhr area are not far away, which is very convenient.”

"In the future, this industrial complex will provide equipment for some of the elite units of the Bavarian and Austro-Hungarian Legions. Arms are only one of the aspects. Maybe there will be cars, tractors and other heavy equipment in the future. Bavarian and Austro-Hungarian industries It's up to them to improve."

"In addition, the inland waterway between the two countries has to be stepped up. The price of inland waterway is the lowest, which will greatly reduce our product costs and increase our competitiveness."

"In a word, you must have money before you can talk about other things! Only with money can you have a strong army and deter enemies at home and abroad."

No matter how much the other party can understand, the prince will bring out everything he thinks. The prince is short of saying, do what you understand, and do what you don't understand!

"It's over?" Princess Mary blinked, and although I didn't understand it, she had a really powerful expression that nearly broke the prince.

After several hours of discussion, the traveler was finally relieved, and the result was not bad. He won an ally, and now His Royal Highness is proud to say that he also has an ally in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Although he still has some doubts about his unfamiliar sister.

Well, at least from the current point of view, the help my cousin can provide is really limited. The key to whether he can benefit from the Austro-Hungarian Empire this time is the subsequent meeting with Earl Taff. In this regard, his father is the main one, hoping to finalize the development of the Danube and the establishment of a joint heavy industry body!
