There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
This is undoubtedly very realistic from country to country.
In other words, it is to put the national interest first and in the most important position.
The same is true for the current Sun Never Sets Empire.
Before the rise of the Germanic Empire, the Russian Empire, which ranked first in the Western world in terms of population and territory, was undoubtedly the biggest enemy of the Empire. In addition, the Russian Empire has always wanted to expand abroad and want to find a freeze-free port. This makes the Sun Never Set Empire frantically encircle the Tsarist Empire for its own hegemony.
It’s just that, from now on, this strategy of the Sun Never Sets Empire has failed.
The Russian Empire successfully expanded not only in the Balkans, but also in the Far East. In both the east and west directions, there is a good ice-free port.
The expansion of the Russian Empire can be described as a complete success.
If he could, or if no other country at this time also posed a threat to the Sun Never Set Empire. Then, the Sun Never Sets Empire can fully give full play to their advantages and blockade the Tsarist Empire from the sea. Then unite with other countries and besiege the Russian Empire until the Tsarist Empire is ~ crushed.
Just as they did with the First Gallic Empire.
However, the birth of the Germanic Empire and the watchful eye of the lighthouse country on the other side of the ocean made it impossible for the Sun Never Set Empire to do that. Otherwise, if they really went to war with the Russian Empire, wouldn’t it be cheaper for the Germanic Empire and the Lighthouse State?
Especially now, the Germanic Empire has begun to frantically develop its navy, which has directly posed a mortal threat to the hegemony of the Sun Never Sets Empire. The threat of the Germanic Empire to the Empire that never sets is already greater than the threat of the Tsarist Empire to the Germanic Empire.
This forced the Empire to adjust its foreign policy. After all, they have to address the main threat first. Other secondary threats can be put behind.
“The Russians already had six advanced dreadnoughts when dealing with the Orientals. Now they are also building six more advanced dreadnoughts in their shipyard. However, according to the information we have obtained, the Russians have no other plans to build ships. If this is the case, then the threat of the Russian navy to the Royal Navy is very limited! Lord of the Admiralty Sir John Fisher said.
Prime Minister Henry Bannerman nodded.
As long as the Russians could not pose a threat to the imperial navy of the empire that never set. Then, the threat of the Russians to the empire that never sets is not too great. The sun never sets in the empire, and it is completely bearable for the time being.
“The Russians went to war with Austria-Hungary in the Balkans and defeated Austria-Hungary. Even if the young tsar married the Austro-Hungarian Grand Duchess as empress, this did not change the hostile relationship between Austria-Hungary and the Russian Empire. Over the years, Austria-Hungary has been actively developing armaments, and its goal is undoubtedly the Russian Empire.
Coupled with the Russians and the Germans, relations were equally tense. The Germanic Empire was an ally of Austria-Hungary. Therefore, they and the Russian Empire are naturally enemies.
Moreover, the Russians are also allies of the Gauls, which makes it inevitable that once a future war breaks out, the Russians and the Germans will inevitably be in a state of hostility.
The army of the Russians is very strong, and it is entirely up to them and the Gauls to deal with the army of the Germans. The Royal Navy could then concentrate on solving the Germanic navy. In this way, we can take advantage of this opportunity to destroy the Germanic navy and completely disintegrate their threat to the empire! ”
Foreign Secretary Sir Edward Grey continued. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
“Can’t we let the Gauls fight with the Russians and the Germans first? If this is the case, then we will not even need to go to war, and we can solve the threat of the Germans to us. Count Elgin of the colonial car asked.
“It would be best if we could stand idly by and watch the Gauls fight the Russians and Germans. However, the problem is simply impossible. Neither the Gauls nor the Russians, nor the Germans, are not fools, they will not be so impulsive. They have always exercised restraint, wanting to avoid getting involved in the war and giving other countries an opportunity. The reason why the Germans vigorously developed the navy was to guard against the empire. Therefore, even if the Gauls went to war with the Russians and the Germans, there would most likely be no threat to the Germanic navy. Once the war reaches a stalemate, it is very likely that they will withdraw in time. That way, the Germans would not have been crushed. It would even cause the Germans to focus more on the navy. At that time, it will be even more difficult for the empire to unite the Gauls and Russians again! Sir Edward Grey said.

Henry Bannerman nodded his head one after another.
He understood well what Sir Edward Grey meant.
That is, to take advantage of the opportunity that the Gauls and the Russians have a feud with the Germans, solve the Germans in one fell swoop, defeat the Germans cleanly, and remove their threat to the empire that never sets, so as to solve this most important threat once and for all. At that time, the hegemony of the Sun Never Set Empire will naturally be maintained. At the same time, the Sun Never Sets Empire can no longer be prepared to deal with threats from other countries.
“We have quite a few disputes with the Russians. The Balkans and the Far East have become faits accomplis and can be abandoned first. But in the kingdoms of Persia and Afuhan, we are also competing. If we are to unite with the Russians, these problems must be solved first. Prime Minister Henry Bannerman said.
“Your Excellency Prime Minister, we can negotiate with the Russians to divide spheres of influence in these areas. After clarifying these spheres of influence, avoid conflict in a short period of time, and focus on dealing with the Germans. After the Germans are solved, we can continue to compete with the Russians at that time! Sir Edward Grey suggested.
“It’s a good idea. Well, we need to unleash goodwill towards the Russians. Sir, as the envoy of the Empire, you will visit Mosk. By the way, meet the young tsar, we need to put aside our prejudices and agree with them on many issues! Prime Minister Henry Bannerman ordered.
“Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!” Sir Edward Grey replied one.
