Chapter 159 German decision
“The Spaniards will not accept any détente, including what the Germans seem to be able to do!”
“If the Moroccans do not accept our offer at 5pm on February 10, we will not have any room for compromise and the two sides will automatically enter a state of war!”
“As for the Germans, come if they want!”
“For the dignity of all citizens, why not fight an all-out war!
”
On the morning of February 8, King Alfonso XII of Spain delivered another speech in front of the public, expressing the attitude of the Kingdom of Spain.
As the Kingdom of Spain, which has restored the royal government, the words of the king can fully represent the will of the country. This time, the words spoken on behalf of the Spanish government have shocked all the people of Europe.
“The Spaniards are ready to fight a full-scale war with the Germans, it seems our friends need our help!”
“These German devils, if they are allowed to continue, Europe does not know how many countries will be bullied. I strongly urge France to join Spain’s war against Germany as soon as a war breaks out!”
“This time we have the help of the Spaniards. I wonder if the Prussian barbarians can be so arrogant!”
Spain and Germany are already at war with each other, but the French people are not going to miss this opportunity at all!
The pain brought to the French in 1870 was too deep. Now, when Germany and other countries are in conflict, France will not miss this opportunity.
You must know that the current French president is Patrice McMahon, the commander of the Charon Legion during the Franco-Prussian War.
The French president with a big personality may be sloppy in everything, but he is definitely a vanguard in any anti-German matters.
At this time, the French president still has the real power in his hands. At the juncture where this matter has developed to this point, this anti-German pioneer bravely stood up.
“France will never tolerate any friend being bullied by an enemy country!
”
“Spain’s demands for Morocco are completely reasonable and worthy of support. As France, which also has important interests in Morocco, we support the Spanish’s approach.”
“If the lives of citizens of various countries are so insignificant in the eyes of the Germans, the French are willing to stand up for him!”
McMahon gave a public speech in Paris and directly stood up for the crisis of the West German war. As a country sandwiched between the two countries, France could not stay out of the 564`Z anyway.
But if the government is unclear on this matter, or even does not express its opposition to the Germans, the enthusiastic French people do not know what they will do to force the government to oppose the Germans.
Instead of that, it is better to stand up directly to the opposite of Germany now, which not only caters to the minds of the French people. You can also gain a wave of favorability from the Spaniards, so why not do it.
After Spain issued a statement, the French statement of righteous words reminded European countries of the crisis of the Franco-German war that just passed, and the two sides also held together against the Germans in this way!
The Russians and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, who could help the Germans, were silent at this time, and they had no intention of standing up and speaking for their allies.
Morocco is too far away from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and it is impossible for the Austrians to fight a war that is close to the European War for the unreasonable demands of the Germans.
And the Russians, at this time, are preparing for war against the Ottomans, unless they give up their desire for Constantinople, the old Byzantine capital.

The overreaction of the Spaniards and the French really made Wilhelm I of Germany and Bismarck in trouble.
In the face of the Moroccan issue, it was originally just to fight for the interests of the Germans, but the divine operation of the German representative William made the Germans have to face the predicament of riding a horse.
There are not one or two German diplomats operating in a trance. The most recent example is the ambassador who shouted to attack France during the crisis period of the German-French war. It directly plunged Germany into opposition from all over Europe.
Time and time again, Germany has been caught in a diplomatic dilemma.
“Your Majesty, now that Germany is already on a horse, if it backs down at this time, then Germany is bound to become the laughing stock of European countries.”
Inside Sanssouci Palace, Prime Minister Bismarck looked at the situation in front of him and felt helpless for a while. William, the representative he chose to appoint in a hurry, stabbed him in the back fiercely as he expected.
“Is it really possible to start a war with Faxi? For a Morocco, wouldn’t it pay such a big price?”
“But if you make concessions now, it will definitely have a great impact on Germany’s prestige. Bismarck, do you have any good ideas to ease this situation.”
William I supported his forehead. This situation also gave him a headache after the reunification of Germany, who tended to be conservative. Whether it was starting the war or closing his hands, Germany suffered huge losses for no reason~www.readmtl.com~ But he did not know The thing is, this kind of head-sucking loss, the future German Empire will have to eat many times…
“Now, we can only stick to our attitude. If we can scare off Spain and let them stop, it is naturally the best, but this hope is obviously slim.”
“The other way is to seek negotiations with the Spaniards, and need a little bit of interest to give an explanation to the people in the country.”
Bismarck knows that now Morocco events are being watched both domestically and abroad.
The way the Germans dealt with them in front of them, if one is not good, it is easy to accompany the wife and break the army.
“Then send someone to Spain to seek benefits. If it doesn’t work, then try to delay it and let the domestic and European people forget about it.”
William I made the final decision that war is absolutely not allowed,
Relying on the strength of the German family, facing the alliance between the West and France, even if they win, it is only a residual victory.
In Germany, which is surrounded by all directions, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no foreign powers who fall into the stone and want to tear off a piece of meat…
As one of the parties, the Moroccans know their current situation,
But limited by its own weak strength, we can only pin our hopes on the Germans.
But they forget that after all, the interests of countries are all about interests.
Wanting the Germans to start a war in Europe for them, without promising the Germans any coveted benefits,
It’s like a fool’s dream. . . .
Now they are like prisoners in a prison, quietly waiting for the outcome of the trial.
But for the Spaniards, the results of the Moroccans’ trial have already come out.
All that is needed now is an execution time.
