Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

The lighthouse countries also have huge ambitions for hegemony, and they are not willing to be trapped in the New World, let alone be regarded as nouveau riche by the whole of Europe. With the world’s most powerful industry, they are eager to further improve their voice.

The Great White Fleet sailed around the world and did not fully achieve the goals of the Lighthouse Nation.

Although they shocked the Eastern Empire, they were shocked in the face of the Sun Never Sets Empire and the Germanic Empire.

This also made the high-level of the lighthouse country more determined to vigorously develop the navy.

Theodore, the commander of the Lighthouse Congress, quickly reached an agreement with the top cabinet to increase efforts to start construction of dreadnoughts.

However, because the lighthouse country still has a big gap with the European first-class level in terms of advanced technology, such as naval guns, steam turbines and fire control systems.

This makes the construction of dreadnoughts in the lighthouse country have to overcome a lot of problems.

Lighthouse countries can only take small steps and run quickly, continuously accumulate experience, and achieve technological breakthroughs.

This makes each class of dreadnoughts in the Lighthouse Navy basically only two. Moreover, they are all turtle warships that attach great importance to defense and firepower, and ignore speed.

In addition, the fire control system is relatively backward, and there are many scattering points of shells. This makes the Beacon Nation Navy dreadnoughts seem very powerful and powerful. But in reality, it just looks scary. It’s a paper tiger that breaks with a stab.

However, the entry of the lighthouse state into the arms race has increased the already tense situation.

Various powerful countries are vigorously developing their navies, which further aggravates the financial difficulties of various countries.

War seems to be on the way, and no one can avoid it.

In the blink of an eye, it was October 1709.

August is also twenty-two years old this year. His fiancée, Princess Elizabeth Mary, is also sixteen years old.

According to the agreement between the Germanic Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, August and Princess Elizabeth Marie will have a wedding.

On October 18th, a grand wedding was held in Pailin.

European countries have sent heavyweights to participate in this wedding, even the Sun Never Sets Empire, all led by Crown Prince George.

August knew very well that Edward VII would hang up next year. Crown Prince George will succeed the king of the Sun Empire in the following year.

In terms of generation, George is August’s elder. But unfortunately, in the next war, there is no such thing as kinship.

For the sake of the country’s interests, even relatives can only be beaten to death.

Besides, Westerners’ concept of family affection is already relatively weak.

Emperor Franz Joseph I personally rushed from Viena to Palin to attend his granddaughter’s wedding.

The magnates of the Austro-Hungarian Empire came for the most part.

It’s just that Archduke Ferdinand, crown prince of Austria-Hungary, had a gloomy face the whole time, and seemed to be very opposed to this marriage.

After all, he was almost certain that August married Princess Elizabeth Marie, in part because he had the opportunity to annex Austria-Hungary in the future. This is absolutely unacceptable to Archduke Ferdinand.

Under the auspices of Archbishop Patrick, the wedding officially began.

August was dressed in the uniform of the Germanic Imperial Army, looking heroic.

Princess Elizabeth Mary wore a white wedding dress, which further set off her beauty.

Although she is only sixteen years old, she has inherited the beauty of her grandmother, Princess Sissi, and is already a small Princess Sissi.

For this beautiful wife, August was also satisfied. Not only because of the appearance, but also because Princess Elizabeth Marie had the right to inherit Austria-Hungary. There is also a very important reason, that is, Princess Elizabeth Mary was withdrawn before, and rarely participated in the various gatherings held by those noble ladies and ladies, so naturally she was not contaminated with those vices.

“Honorable His Majesty Emperor William III, would you like to marry Her Royal Highness Princess Elizabeth Mary? Whether poor, rich or sick…” asked the Archbishop of the Berlin region.

“I do!” August replied.

“Her Royal Highness Princess Elizabeth Mary, would you like to marry Her Majesty Emperor William III? Poor, rich or sick…” the archbishop continued.

“I do!” Princess Elizabeth Mary replied firmly.

In the past three years, they have only been able to see each other two or three times a year. However, correspondence is provided almost every week. This made the relationship between the two quickly heat up.

Princess Elizabeth Marie was also very satisfied with Auguste.

In one sentence, the two are completely talented women, and they are a perfect match.

“In the witness of God and all my relatives and friends, I declare that His Majesty Emperor William III and Princess Elizabeth Mary are officially married and married. May God bless them! The archbishop announced.

“Snap!” People who say that there are wedding attendees are applauding and sending blessings, whether sincerely or not.
