Restart Spain

The news that Spain delivered an ultimatum to Morocco not only detonated the Spanish people, but also detonated the French people, the German people, the British people and so on.

Morocco is located in the most northwestern part of North Africa, and is separated from Gibraltar on both sides.

"If the Spaniards dared to wage war against the Moroccans, thus harming the interests of the Germans in Morocco, the Germans would surely impose sanctions on the Spaniards!

While expressing our grief for the suffering of the Spaniards, we should also sit on what our government should do, which is to protect the interests of our people and overseas Chinese.

We hope that the two sides can sit down and have a good talk, instead of going to war! "

The day after Spain's ultimatum, German Prime Minister Bismarck delivered a speech in Berlin.

The interests of the Germans in Morocco are enormous, even more so than the French.

Spain's current war on Morocco completely violates Germany's interests in Africa, which has to make the German government stand up for the Moroccans.

To launch a war directly against the Spaniards, they do not have that ability, after all, there is a France in the middle.

If you want to threaten Spain on land, it is bound to hit France from east to west.

If it is only for the benefit of Morocco, it is completely unrealistic, and the world will not allow another German-French war to break out.

On the sea, the Spanish naval tonnage is not much different from that of the Germans, but the performance of the Spanish warships is much higher than that of the Germans.

This also put the Germans into a dilemma, and only through diplomatic means to do the best for the interests of the Germans.

If a war broke out between Germany and Spain, the only way for the two sides to fight would be the sea, but with its current strength, Germany is likely to lose to the Spaniards on the sea.

In terms of diplomacy, the French are bound to support the Spaniards, which means that on the Moroccan issue, the only ally Germany can win is the British Empire.

But it is also extremely unrealistic for the German government to let the British give up such a long-term partner as Spain and support Germany instead.

But the Germans will never give up so easily. In Morocco's interests, the two sides are bound to have a diplomatic turmoil.

"Are the Germans ready to directly intervene in our country's military operations? If so, our country will never give in."

"We will keep the interests of the German people well, and try not to let him suffer any damage."

"But if the Germans go their separate ways to support the Moroccans, then the Spanish government doesn't mind fighting Germany to the end."

The Spaniards responded immediately and recalled the Mediterranean fleet, which had been training with the British in the Mediterranean,

The entire Spanish navy, except for the Cuban region, has all been concentrated in the mainland.

The attitude is self-evident, it is to deal with all possible naval wars.

Perhaps on land, the Spaniards could only surrender to the German threat, but on the sea the Spaniards were not Germans.

Except for the Valiant, which had been sold to the French, and the Queen Insabella, which was stationed in Cuba,

The remaining Magellan, the Cavalier of the West, and the Prince of Asturias, the three Castile-class battleships, were all assembled in the port of A Coruña.

Spain's attitude can be said to be hard, it can be said to be a clear attitude, even if it is a war.

This attitude directly caused the German government to be in a hurry and caught them off guard.

Spain's strength has not been as strong as it has been in the past half a century, and it is completely unexpected for the Germans to be able to call out the word war so strongly today.

But it is clear that Germany is not a vegetarian. It was immediately announced that the German destroyer Explosion and the cruiser Berlin would go to Morocco for military exercises.

The seriousness of this situation has completely escalated.

The tough attitude of the German government and the tough attitude of the Spanish government have made this issue only between Spain and Morocco, and it has risen to an issue in the whole of Europe.

Because the French immediately showed solidarity with the Spaniards after the Germans announced this order.

"If the Germans dare to go to war with our friend Spain, France will not sit idly by!"

"In the face of Germany, which is aggressively meddling in other countries' affairs, I call on all European countries to unite against the Germans!"

...

"What do these Germans want to do? They have to get involved in Spain's affairs. Do they really think they are the hegemons of Europe?"

"If war really broke out between Germany and Spain, then we would definitely choose to support Spain!"

"The Spaniards just supported us not long ago, now it's time for us to support our friends!"

The French government and the private sector unexpectedly reached an unanimous attitude.

In the face of German incidents, the French attitude is always the same ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Any country in Europe that opposes the Germans is an ally of the French.

The foreign policy of the French has changed and they seek any power in Europe to help themselves against the Germans.

Whether it is out of the previous friendship between countries or France's own foreign policy, supporting the Spaniards is the most correct political appeal.

There is never eternal friendship between nations.

For France, which has a huge colony, the little interest of Morocco is completely dispensable.

But being able to win over an ally against the Germans, or a powerful ally with enough power like Spain, is absolutely unavoidable.

...

In other countries in Europe, there was no apparent opposition or support for the Germans' behavior.

Although the British Empire had concerns about the Spanish war situation, Morocco had some concerns.

But the trust in their Royal Navy still allows them to choose to continue to have such an ally as Spain.

After all, the strength of the Spanish navy is only one-fifth of that of the British, as long as it does not threaten the core interests of the British, Gibraltar.

The Brits are not going to express their attitude on this matter...

And the traditional German allies, Austria-Hungary and Russia, can offer too little diplomatic support in this matter.

After all, the three emperors are just a mutual defense treaty, not the Germans taking the initiative to launch a war of aggression. They also need to fulfill the nature of the treaty.

Although Germany has interests in Morocco, it is not German territory after all.

In addition, Russia now uses all the artillery and machine guns provided by Spain,

If the supply of ammunition breaks down, it will be a catastrophic disaster for the strategic readiness of the Russian Army.
