C879 Teutonic Knights

The situation of Prussia's founding was quite unique. First of all, there was no such country as Prussia. There was only one place called Prussia, and it was inhabited by the primitive Baltic peoples who worshipped the Nordic gods.

Why did the Prussian region become the Prussian Kingdom? That was back in the Crusades. It was well-known that the Crusades were for the Holy See to hoodwink all the kingdoms and believers of Europe, and to go together to the East to rob.

He had control of the Middle East region. Not only did he possess the holy city of Jerusalem, he also had control of the two rivers and the two Nile's two granaries.

Even by controlling the region, Europe could still make its way to ancient commercial routes to India and China. The geographical importance of the Middle East was evident.

However, he could not just stand idly by and watch while the Holy See coaxed the European kingdoms into war. Furthermore, he needed to take care of the territories they were fighting for himself and could not allow others to eat the flesh in the end.

Therefore, at the end of the first eastern expedition, the Holy See organized three great knight regiments, made up of the most pious monks and knights of the Holy See. They all joined the expedition, which included the famous and famous Hospital Knight Regiment, Temple Knight Regiment, and the ancestor of Prussia, the Teutonic Knights.

The Knight Order was established for the sake of war. To put it bluntly, they were mercenaries from the Church. They had swords in their hands in their hearts, as well as the financial support of countless members of the Church.

The war with the pagan was not limited to the Middle East. In the thirteenth century, there were still many ancient civilizations in northern Europe struggling to survive under the pressure of Christianity.

It was just like the primitive Prussian natives, who inevitably had countless conflicts with Christianity. The conflict with the Polish king was the most serious, because this group of natives had actually attacked the territory of the Polish king's son.

The furious Polish King not only sent troops to invade these valiant aboriginals, he also sent people to the leader of the Teutonic Knights to seek help, preparing to hire these professional soldier s to avenge them.

At that time, the Teutonic Knights had no more battles to fight, so every one of them had to pay attention to who was hired. The pagan has already attacked the Christians, we have to suppress them!

Just like this, the Teutonic Knights entered Northern Europe and began her 200 years of war on the Prussian soil. This was not an ordinary war. In the span of two hundred years, the Teutonic Knights had changed the faith of the natives on this land, and even changed their language.

From then on, the Teutonic Knights had settled down here, and finally declared that the secular world had become an independent kingdom, belonging to the German Nationality's federation.

As such, it could be seen that the Prussian's national character had a lot to do with his history. As the descendant of one of the Pope's three great knights, they were resolute and filled with nobility, similarly stubborn and lacking in flexibility.

Kevin was a classic descendant of a Prussian Junker family. He was not afraid of war and was full of the spirit of sacrifice, but it was definitely impossible for people like him to participate in private raids on the ocean.

"Alright, I know that I am unable to convince you. Now, I request to disembark and give me a small boat. I will head to the Marshall Islands in the dark of the night. I want to return home …"

Kevin gave up the position of vice Captain and chose to return to Prussia alone. I cannot change your decision, but I have the authority to not participate.

Xiang Ying and the others did not think that Kevin would be so stubborn. Everyone looked at each other, at a loss for words. All sorts of work required Kevin to lead. Since they had only travelled a quarter of the way through the long journey, how could he give up?

The stubborn Kevin only thinks that he's a dead end. I can't stop you guys from looting the ocean, but I can be responsible for myself, can't I just not participate?!

In the end, Xiang Ying had no choice but to follow me, Mr. Kevin. I will show you some things, after that, if you still insist on this decision, I will send you back home. "

When the two arrived at the Zhiyuan Warship's Captain's Room, Xiang Ying even locked the door. Opening the safe, Xiang Ying took out a document from the lowest floor and placed it in front of Kevin.

"Originally, these documents could not be made public, but we are currently at a vast ocean, so we are not afraid of you leaking it out. I hope that after you finish reading through it, you will understand how dangerous the time for German Nationality has come …"

Inside the document was a secret conversation between Xiao Letian and Prime Minister Bismark after the Poo War s died. It was a highly confidential meeting. The more Kevin looked, the brighter his eyes shone, the fury on his face obvious.

"That's right, this is all real …" After the conclusion of the Poo War, Napoleon III had once arrogantly asked Prime Minister Bismark for the ownership of the land west of the Rhine … "

"All the French in the Bavaria and the Hesse Duchies want this as an excuse to thank someone for maintaining a neutral position among the Poo War!"

"Mr. Kevin, the Poo War is ultimately still a competition for power within the German Nationality. In Chinese words, it is like a huge clan fighting over the inheritance right between two houses. What right did the France have to interfere? You even want to split up the Germany's land, that is intolerable! "

Peng! Kevin smashed his fist on the table. "Why? Why don't we know about this? It has been two years, why is it that no one in Prussia knows about it? "

Kevin would never doubt the authenticity of the documents. Although these Chinese youths would use any means possible, they would definitely not use such important information to deceive people.

"Why? "Because Prime Minister Bismark had shouldered all the pressure himself, because he knew that Prussia needed to prepare in order to challenge France …"

"France's national strategy for the Germany is very clear. If they want to ensure the status of the First Army of Europe, they must interfere with the unification of the Germany. Today, they are seeking land west of the Rhine, and tomorrow, they can reach east of the Rhine!"

"The competition between the powers of different countries will gradually change as time goes by. There will be a war between the two parties. The entire Prussian upper echelon had long realized this … If you think it's okay to give the land to France, then pretend I didn't say anything and I'm sending you home now. "

"Enough!" Kevin was so angry that his face turned sinister, "If this is a way to goad them, then you have already succeeded... "If you want to keep me here, there is only one condition. We will only attack French ships. Is it okay for the rest of the world to not move?"

"No problem, everything is as you wish!" Xiang Ying smiled and gave him a military salute. A row of white teeth flashed in his eyes.
