Jagged Germany

  Under Qin Tian's sincere invitation, Diesel agreed to join Qin Tian's engine manufacturing company. Qin Tian bought all the patents of Diesel's diesel engine at a price of five million marks.

  At the same time, Qin Tian hired Diesel as the chief engineer of the Diesel Engine Division of Deutsche Engine Manufacturing Company, responsible for further research on diesel engines. Soon, Qin Tian will invest at least 20 million marks to build a research and development center and factory in Augsburg, so as to be able to produce highly reliable diesel engines as soon as possible.

  In May 1905, Deutsche Engine Manufacturing Company was formally established. In addition to the previously established Diesel Engine Division, there are also Steam Turbine Division and Gasoline Engine Division. In the future, there will be an aero-engine division. To ensure that they can fully cover the three aspects of sea, land and air. Of course, Qin Tian still values ​​military use. After the army enters the era of mechanization in the future, there will be a great demand for various high-power engines, which will be related to the combat effectiveness of the army. Starting the layout from now on will undoubtedly ensure that Germany will be ahead of all countries in the world in this regard.

  Qin Tian's career has officially entered a period of rapid development. Deutsche Shipyard is starting a large-scale expansion. With massive capital investment, this medium-sized shipyard that has been established for hundreds of years is undergoing earth-shaking changes. Deutsche Engine Manufacturing Company, although it has only just started. However, in the field of diesel engines and steam turbines, because of the acquisition of a complete set of technologies, it has already been at the forefront of the world. Qin Tian is organizing engineers to conduct research on the Curtis steam turbine technology obtained from the United States, trying to understand it as soon as possible, and then create a large steam turbine that can be used on battleships, so that the battleships they build can have faster speeds.

  Although Qin Tian knew that this road was very difficult. However, he also enjoys the feeling of changing the world in his own right. Even now, his influence on Germany and the history of the world is still very small. But Qin Tian believed that this was a very good start. As long as he can continue to develop, the influence he can produce will increase. Before long, Germany will also undergo tremendous changes because of him. Of course, the inertia of history is still very strong. Qin Tian is not sure whether Germany will win the war and change the future destiny because of Qin Tian's appearance. All he can do is to do his best so that Germany can win.

   While Qin Tian's career was developing rapidly, Germany encountered a diplomatic crisis. German diplomacy suffered a major failure. The entire German society was filled with righteous indignation. This also made the world situation become tense.

  Morocco, a country located in northwest Africa. Western powers have invaded Morocco since the 15th century. After entering the 20th century, the situation in Morocco became more chaotic and complicated. France and Spain, competing for their respective interests in Morocco. At the same time, German capital also poured into Morocco in large quantities.

  In April 1904, Britain and France signed an agreement, France promised not to interfere with Britain's actions in Egypt, and Britain recognized Morocco as France's sphere of influence. But this violated German interests in Morocco.

  In February 1905, France asked Morocco to carry out reforms under French supervision in an attempt to make Morocco a protectorate of France. Germany immediately countered. On March 31, Kaiser Wilhelm II visited the Moroccan city of Tangier, declaring that Germany would maintain Morocco's independence and that foreign countries would have absolute equality in Morocco. Then the German Prime Minister Bilow suggested to all countries participating in the 1880 "Madrid Treaty" that the Morocco issue should be submitted to an international conference for discussion.

   "Madrid Treaty" stipulates that all foreign countries and their citizens enjoy the right to trade and other rights in Morocco shall be equal. Germany's note to France threatened war, and French Foreign Minister T. Delcase took a tough stance, backed by Britain. The situation became tense.

  On June 6, there was a fierce debate in the French cabinet meeting, and Delcase was forced to resign. Prime Minister M. Rouvier also served as foreign minister and continued negotiations with Germany.

  An agreement was reached on July 8. The two sides agreed to hold an international meeting of the participating countries of the Madrid Treaty to discuss the Morocco issue.

  However, Germany clearly has no upper hand on the Morocco issue.

  In the German Imperial Palace, Wilhelm II held an imperial meeting. Prime Minister Bernhard von Bülow, Foreign Minister von Kidrun Wachter, Chief of the General Staff Moltke, Minister of War von Falkenhain, Minister of the Navy Tirpitz and Crown Prince Wilhelm, attended for this meeting.

  As for Qin Tian, ​​although his performance in the past year is completely different from before. Also received the attention of William II. However, in general, Qin Tian is not yet qualified to attend such an important meeting.

"Father, we absolutely can't continue to endure. What the French did in Morocco completely ignored our interests in Morocco. This is a damage to the interests of the German Empire and a trample on the sovereignty of the German Empire. We absolutely cannot compromise any more. We must use our strong military strength to let the French see our determination and make them retreat." Crown Prince William's impassioned voice echoed in the office.

   On the Morocco issue, Crown Prince William's attitude is very tough. Because he knows that this represents the voice of the people. The military's position is also very tough. If he does this, he will undoubtedly get more support and further stabilize his position as crown prince.

  Qin Tian's recent development has made Crown Prince William feel a deep crisis. He needs to find ways to ensure the stability of his crown prince status.

   "Your Majesty, the people in the country are also quite emotional. Most people think that we can no longer retreat. Otherwise, the interests of the empire overseas will not be guaranteed." Prime Minister Biluo also said.

  Germany was unified only in 1870, although the subsequent development was very rapid. However, they only discovered it after they became a world-class power. The world has already been divided up. In the tide of dividing up the world, Germany only got some insignificant colonies. This is completely inconsistent with Germany's strong economic and military strength. In addition, Britain, France and other countries set up trade barriers in their respective colonies, making it impossible for German industrial products to enter, which made Germany more and more dissatisfied with Britain, France and other countries.

  The Morocco incident this time happened to arouse the anger of the German people.
