Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne - Vol 3 Chapter 483
“There are many ways to cause chaos in a country, one is war between countries, the other is to disintegrate their country from the inside, let them kill each other, and then we come forward as good people, remember, you can get Good people who are good, not good people who are bad”
William IV looked down at them and said, “At present, within the borders of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, we have already obtained talents from the United States of America, as well as talents from Sweden, Denmark, the Balkans, Belgium, and the Tsarist Russia Empire. Next, the Netherlands will make good friends. Objects such as Spain, Italy, etc. will be the targets of our search for talents. Of course, there are also talents from the French Empire, which we are currently sanctioning by using the resources of various countries. As one of the top treasure houses of European talent resources, the French Empire, if there are many people in it. Being able to take a small part of the talent away from us will also be a huge benefit for the Netherlands.”

The Minister of the Interior Jonrell said incredulously: “The French have always been arrogant, will they come all the way to us?”
William IV smiled and said: “Not here, over there in Australia. As for the reason, everyone will know in less than a year.”
Many members of the Privy Council are vaguely aware of some information, and William IV needs to keep it secret, so at present, only a few people know some information. They see that William IV is so sure, and the time is still determined. Within a year, this made them very shocked.
Several people exchanged glances involuntarily. In the end, Samuel, the European and African coordinator, stood up and changed the subject and said: “Mr. Akeqi’s soft power is very good, and the effect is obviously the same as what he said just now, which is very good. but”
But the word is very powerful. Everyone knows that this is a turning point, so they can’t help but look at Samuel, wanting to hear his “rebuttal”.
The University of Groningen has always attached great importance to economics, so he is also the cradle of the Dutch economic circle, and even many economic giants in the Netherlands graduated from the school.
It is for this reason that Samuel attaches great importance to substance.
“Soft power is a bit illusory. It is a pity that the Netherlands uses this to gain the favor of the society of various countries, but at the same time, it needs to have long guns and short guns to maintain its shock and deterrence in the face of bullies or those who have bad intentions in the Netherlands.”
Samuel said: “At present, traditional hard power still dominates international relations. The Netherlands needs to have the power to dominate international relations. I think the Dutch government can make good use of this advantage.”
“In the Netherlands and internationally, some people think that the Netherlands should not raise its voice on international issues, especially on security issues directly or indirectly related to the British and French Empires. This kind of thinking is actually a mistake of the times. From the point of view, this kind of cognition is only meaningful when it is still a weak country. However, the Netherlands is no longer a small shrimp, nor is it a ‘dolphin’ that needs to be skillfully dodged in the competition of the six major European countries such as Britain, France, Russia, Russia and the Olympics. ‘, the Netherlands has grown into one of the ‘whales’ that can dominate issues affecting Europe and the world.” Of course, it may be difficult to fight alone, but if you are fighting side by side with other partners, it can be done.
This is not to encourage the Netherlands to confront the major powers unnecessarily. Neither the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Tsarist Russia or the Ottoman Empire is willing to do this. Countries such as the British Empire, the Kingdom of Prussia, and even the French Empire, whose relations with the Netherlands have recently deteriorated, are very wary of the Netherlands and do not want a full-scale war with the Netherlands. Therefore, the Netherlands should not worry that other major powers will take the initiative to attack the Netherlands.
However, if the Netherlands can take a tough stance to protect national interests and strengthen cooperation with allies and partner countries, it will gain more respect in the international community. The various global and regional alliance organizations that the Netherlands participates in and organizes will be the Netherlands More international influence, which will greatly help the Netherlands to deal with enemies and increase partners. Therefore, with my support, the Netherlands can make more substantive diplomatic and military actions, which is very beneficial to the Netherlands. Of course, in the economic alliance, the Netherlands can make more bold moves, which is very helpful for the Netherlands to build its economic power. . ”
Samuel, the European and African Security Advisor, is the Chancellor of the University of Groningen, Dean of the School of European and International Studies at King’s College, a researcher at the Amsterdam Institute for Peace, a top think tank in the Netherlands, a visiting professor at the University of Amsterdam, and Served as a full-time advisor to the Netherlands Centre for Strategic and International Studies and the Nordic Union William IV.
Therefore, he promoted the strength of the Netherlands, which shocked everyone present.
As the location of the European headquarters, the statement of this local full-time consultant represents some ideas of William IV to a certain extent, because seriously speaking, the position of the security consultant is actually the meaning of the secretary.
The responsibility of staying with William IV for many years and providing advice~www.mtlnovel.com~ At this time, his and Akachi’s views have made everyone realize that it is only now that they realize it later, whether it is soft power or hard power. , this is an aggressive performance.
This means that William IV will end the period of stability in the next period of time, and speed up the “attack” to the outside world. However, he just doesn’t know where the direction of the attack is pointing?
William IV looked at McKay Shawn next to him, and after the latter got the signal, he stood up and said: “Everyone, the current international situation is very serious, the international situation is changing in an instant, the time is not waiting for me, we all need to be prepared. To meet the latest challenge, according to the information received by our International Intelligence Service, the British Empire currently has a different attitude towards the Netherlands. Disraeli is more dissatisfied and repressed towards the Netherlands, while Russell and Queen Victoria of the Whig party are more inclined. Reaching out and wooing the Netherlands to the side of the UK. So, in the UK, a lot of people are talking about a topic”
What topic?
Seeing that McKay Shaun, the director of the Netherlands International Intelligence Agency, is so serious, and William IV is also dignified, this is obviously a bit tricky.
I saw McKay Shaun said: “Many nobles objected to Queen Victoria marrying Princess Louise to Prince Frederick of the Netherlands, who is now the Crown Prince of Greece, believing that the prince is His Majesty’s younger brother. In the UK, if the relationship is poor, you should not marry.”
“But Foreign Secretary Russell objected. He believed that Princess Louise could improve Anglo-Dutch relations, and even win over Greece in the Mediterranean for her own use, so as to deepen the influence of Europe. There is a big debate between the two factions.”
“Queen Victoria’s attitude is that she wants to marry the Netherlands?” Prime Minister Tolbeck asked.
