Make France Great Again

Chapter 890 Diplomatic Red Line

"I knew they would never give up!"

After hearing the report from the black eunuch that the French and Spanish ambassadors had come together, Sultan Abdur Rahman sighed and muttered something in a low voice.

Abdur Rahman was not surprised by the arrival of the French and Spanish ambassadors.

In his view, it would be truly surprising if France and Spain did not take any action after learning that the Kingdom of Morocco had signed an agreement with Britain.

However, the fact that the French ambassador and the Spanish ambassador could come to the palace at the same time to launch an attack was indeed beyond Abdur Rahman's expectations.

Could it be that the French Empire and the Kingdom of Spain are preparing to unite to put pressure on me?

Abdul Rahman couldn't help but think to himself, and his expression gradually became serious.

The black eunuch standing next to Sultan Abdur Rahman saw that His Majesty the Sultan did not speak for a long time, and quickly reminded him in a high-pitched voice: "Your Majesty, the two ambassadors of France and Spain are still waiting outside the palace! "

After reacting, Sultan Abdul Rahman replied to the black eunuch: "Well...oh...then let the two ambassadors come over! Don't keep them waiting too long!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" the black eunuch bowed in response, then turned and left.

The black eunuch who left the Sultan's study walked along the corridor and soon arrived at the gate of Rabat Palace.

The French and Spanish ambassadors, who had been waiting at the palace gate for a while, smiled when they saw the black eunuch appear.

The French ambassador immediately asked the black eunuch: "Is His Majesty Sultan Abdul Rahman willing to meet with us?"

The black eunuch smiled slightly and replied to the French and Spanish ambassadors in French unhurriedly: "Two ambassadors, your Majesty has agreed to meet with you!

Please come with me! "

Led by the black eunuchs, the French ambassador and the Spanish ambassador arrived at Abdul Rahman's study.

Pushing open the study door, you can see Abdul Rahman Sultan sitting on the desk, pretending to read documents.

Hearing the noise coming from the door, Sultan Abdul Rahman raised his head and looked at the French and Spanish ambassadors at the door. Then he stood up and said to the French and Spanish ambassadors: "Two ambassadors, why do you have time to come here together?" ! Please come in quickly!”

At the invitation of Abdur Rahman, the French and Spanish ambassadors sat on the sofa next to the desk.

Abd al-Rahman, who had settled the French and Spanish ambassadors, issued an order to the black eunuch: "Hurry up and make a pot of tea!"

"Yes!" The black eunuch nodded, turned around and walked out of the study again.

"There's no need to make tea!" The French Ambassador shook his head and refused, "The purpose of our visit this time is not to come to Rabat Palace to ask for a sip of water!"

"That's right!" The Spanish ambassador on the side also repeated to Abdul Rahman: "Your Majesty the Sultan, the purpose of our visit this time is not simply to drink tea with you!

All red tape can be omitted! "

“Since the two ambassadors don’t want to drink tea, then I won’t force it!

"Abdur Rahman was not angry because the French and Spanish ambassadors openly rejected it. He still had a smile on his face and asked the two ambassadors slowly: "What do you want when you come to my place today? do what? "

"Dear Your Majesty the Sultan, I heard that two months ago, you signed a mutually beneficial and friendly agreement with the Kingdom of Britain... I wonder if this is the case?" The French ambassador spoke to Abdul with a hint of questioning. Rahman asked.

Abdur Rahman's face changed slightly, and he snorted coldly and said to the French Ambassador: "It does happen! What? We, the Kingdom of Morocco, want to sign any treaty, and we still need to report it to the French Empire. !”

Facing Abdur Rahman's "resistance", the French ambassador still had a smile on his face, and his tone was not angry at all: "Your Majesty the Sultan, of course there is no need to report any treaty signed by the Principality of Morocco to France! We do the same. We have no right to point fingers at a sovereign country!"

At this point, the French Ambassador paused, and then changed the topic: "But what I want to say is that the security of one country cannot be based on compromising the security of another country!

Such behavior is undoubtedly provoking an unnecessary conflict! "

"Harm the security of other countries?" Abdur Rahman immediately refuted the French ambassador: "Your Excellency Ambassador, I would like to ask which country's security was harmed by the signing of the agreement between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Kingdom of Britain!

Your homeland, France, is separated from us by the Mediterranean Sea, and Spain is also separated from us by the Strait of Gibraltar!

We have not compromised the security of any country! "

"Your Majesty the Sultan, I'm afraid you have forgotten! Algeria is now the territory of the French Empire!" The French Ambassador also said with a sneer on his lips.

Speaking of Algeria, Sultan Abdur Rahman couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. He once again recalled the scene when France brazenly crossed the border between Algeria and the Kingdom of Morocco to arrest people, and recalled the clumsy way the French Empire used it to arrest people. Memories of an attack on the territory of the Kingdom of Morocco as a pretext.

Memories full of humiliation made Abd al-Rahman more determined to oppose the extortion of the French Empire and the Kingdom of Spain.

In the view of Sultan Abdur Rahman, the Kingdom of Morocco has now received the protection of the Kingdom of Britain, and the Kingdom of Britain is the most powerful country in Europe, so he does not need to deal with France and Spain anymore. .

“I admit that Algeria is indeed a territory of the French Empire, but we in the Kingdom of Morocco have never compromised Algeria’s security!

On the contrary, the French Empire has been threatening the border security of the Kingdom of Morocco. In the more than ten years since your country occupied Algeria, it has crossed the border countless times!

And every time your excuses for intrusion are the same! "Abdur Rahman responded angrily to the French ambassador.

"So your country would rather sell itself to the British Kingdom than choose to become an enemy of the French Empire?" the French ambassador asked coldly.

"Your Excellency, Ambassador, let me say it again! I do not want to be an enemy of the great French Empire!" Abdur Rahman said to the French Ambassador in an excited tone, "The purpose of our doing this is just to protect ourselves. It’s just your ability!”

"The Kingdom of Morocco's means of protecting itself is threatening the security of France!" The French ambassador insisted on insisting on the issue of "border security".

[ps: In fact, the "British-Moroccan Treaty" did not involve the issue of the Anglo-Moroccan military alliance. The "border security" mentioned by the French ambassador cannot be established.

The reason why Sultan Abdur Rahman followed the French ambassador's train of thought was entirely because he personally believed that as long as the Kingdom of Morocco transferred economic interests to the Kingdom of Britain, the Kingdom of Britain would be able to protect the Kingdom of Morocco. Safety! 】

“The Anglo-Moroccan Treaty signed between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Kingdom of Britain not only threatens France’s border security, but also ignores the economic interests of France and Spain in the Kingdom of Morocco!

It has brought a lot of trouble to our investment in the Kingdom of Morocco! "The Spanish ambassador, who had been silent all this time, also spoke to Sultan Abdur Rahman in a solemn tone: "So we hope that the Kingdom of Morocco can step back from the brink and recognize the reality as soon as possible!

Don't go further and further down the wrong path! "

Hearing the words of the Spanish Ambassador, Sultan Abdur Rahman laughed angrily and said: "Mr. Ambassador, I would like to ask you what is the right path and what is the wrong path!

Could it be that opposing France and Spain is the wrong path? "

"Of course not!" Although the Spanish ambassador wanted to say that it was indeed the case, he still responded duplicitously to Abdur Rahman: "Whether the path is correct or not does not only depend on France and Spain, but also on other countries. nation!

Only the path that is unanimously recognized by other countries is the right path! "

"The Kingdom of Morocco has gained recognition from the Kingdom of Britain, and we are now on the right path!" General Abdur Rahman said in reaction.

"Dear Your Majesty, since you are not willing to talk to us calmly, then we have nothing to say!" The French ambassador decided to end the conversation, but he still gave Abdul Rahman a message. Rahman left a window, “But I still hope you can think carefully about the situation your country is facing now!

Blind rejection will not do your country any good!

And do you really think that the Kingdom of Britain will fight France and Spain to the end for you? "

After that, the French ambassador stood up and said goodbye to Sultan Abdur Rahman, and the Spanish ambassador also stood up to say goodbye to Abdur Rahman.

Abd al-Rahman, who was watching the French and Spanish ambassadors leave, suddenly felt an inexplicable panic. He didn't know what the French ambassador's last words meant, and he was also unsure whether the British Kingdom would be as they had promised. To ensure the security of the Kingdom of Morocco.

Therefore, shortly after the French and Spanish ambassadors left, Sultan Abdur Rahman sent someone to the British Embassy to invite the British Ambassador to Morocco to enter the palace, and told the British Ambassador to Morocco in detail about his exchanges with the French and Spanish ambassadors. A conversation with the Ambassador of the country.

After hearing this, the British Ambassador to Morocco expressed with confidence that the British Kingdom will do its best to ensure the security of the Kingdom of Morocco.

But the British ambassador to Morocco didn't know that a crisis was brewing that would subvert British rule in India.
