The summons ended soon, and two things were next.

One is Frederick William's purpose.

What surprised Nikan was that Leopold, the leader of the Teutonic Knights who was hidden behind William and actually supported the operation of the entire Grand Duchy, was actually sent out by William. Now only Nikan and the Great Xia Kingdom are left in the huge living room.

Nikan was somewhat expectant. This person came here in person as the richest person among the Protestant religion among the seven German electoral emperors. After listening to his long discussion that he didn't know how much trouble it would cause, his expression was normal, and even he was a little impressed.

What he knew was that William studied in the Netherlands when he was young, and had studied theology and mathematics in full, and was eloquent. If he had any objections to what he had just said, he would definitely raise it on the spot. He did not do so. If he either disdained his argument, he had extremely high emotional intelligence. Although he was a Protestant, he still chose the interests in front of the interests of the Grand Duchy and the family.

Think about it, it is said that the Dutch Republic is the banner country of Protestantism in Europe. He should have united with the Dutch in the Baltic War that just happened not long ago, but he was entangled with the Russians of the Orthodox Church. Although he was the son-in-law of the Tsar, the phenomenon of European countries being in-laws is common and they are never vague when it comes to war.

For them, national interests are definitely the first priority, then religion, and finally others.

"His Majesty"

After everyone else left, William stood up, holding his black top hat in his heart, and bowed his left hand behind Nikan.

"Did you know? I suddenly discovered something interesting"

"oh?"

"Is it not just a coincidence that my family was named Count of Sauron in history, and the great group of yours was named Sauron?"

Nikan laughed and said, "These are two completely different languages. Although the pronunciations are similar, the meaning is too far different. According to my understanding, the German Soren means castle, while the meaning of Sauron in our country is the person in the forest, which is too far different."

"No, no, no," William shook his head, "Soren in our country did mean a castle at the beginning, but it was a castle in the forest. Sauren in your country specifically refers to the people in the forest. It is estimated that it was still a clan many years ago."

"Oh," Nikan thought to himself, "Did the racial theory of the great head of state begin to ferment here?"

But he said, "Dear William, if you have anything to do, hurry up and say it. I have been tired and a little tired after the past few days of travel."

William sat down and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I came to my hometown. There is only one thing. Since the great Emperor Sauron of the East has almost unified the entire East, the Saurons of the West should also follow your footsteps and unify the German-speaking Saurons."

Nikan thought to himself: "As it turns out, he has taken half of Germany now and has the strength to take down the entire German region. According to our country's intelligence, the entire German region, plus the Czech Republic, Austria has a population of 20 million, and he accounts for half of the population. It is indeed a strength to unify the German region."

"But with the ability of the Germans, if they were allowed to unify the entire German region, it would be the most powerful country in Europe without any surprise, because when the Great Xia Kingdom appeared, the subsequent science and technology and industrial knowledge would definitely be passed here, it was nothing more than a matter of time. In that case, the British and Dutch were forced to evolve because of the Great Navigation and to defeat the pioneers of the Great Navigation Spain and Portugal. They just need to learn from the Great Xia Kingdom."

"That is to say, Europe is almost on the same starting line at the moment. France, which has the most technological strength but is seriously inclined, is only half a step ahead. However, once the German countries are unified, France will face a strong opponent. With William's current 50,000 standing troops, it should be a big problem to defeat the Habsburgs and unify the countries. What does he mean when he comes to me? Does it mean that with the increase of population and land, he will expand the scale of the standing troops and buy more weapons and equipment from the Daxia Kingdom?"

William was also secretly glanced at Nikan from the corner of his eyes when he was speaking. Seeing that he had no expression after hearing his words, he also thought: "With the current strength of the Great Xia Kingdom, following the footsteps of the Mongols and conquering the entire Europe is no problem, but he has no expression. This shows that either he will not care about the opinions or actions of others at all, and is moving forward at his own pace, or he has no intention of taking over the entire Europe, but I hope it is the latter."

"Oh?" Sure enough, Nikan was silent for a while before speaking, "That's a good thing. With your current abilities, do you still need my Daxia's help?"

William replied: "Your Majesty clearly understands that in the Christian world in Europe, Catholicism and Protestantism are clearly divided. Although most of our country believe in Protestantism, a considerable number of them are believers of Catholicism. But you have also seen that even if they are both Catholics, Spain and France will not deal with each other. In the final analysis, they are still race and national interests are supreme."

"Let's talk nonsense, I ask you, if you want to unify the German countries, you must first face the challenges of other electorals, and behind them is Austria. As far as I know, after the end of the Thirty Years' War, the population was severely declining, and a large number of young and strong people became mercenaries wandering around Germany, most of which were absorbed by Austria. The combined population of Austria, Hungary and Bohemia was close to 10 million. Not to mention other electorals, the Habsburg family was very strong, and the family was the superficial leader of the countries."

William nodded, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face, "How did the Great Xia Kingdom know the population of the European countries? The Grand Duchy of Prussia under my jurisdiction is just a rough one. How did they know it? Could their intelligence agencies have penetrated into the tax officials systems of various countries?"

(At this time, only tax officials from all over Europe knew the population the most)

"When he made that amazing remark just now, he talked about the interweaving time and space. Did European people appear in that time and space? He also got a lot of information from them. In this way, this person's remarks just now are only part of the real situation, and most of them did not tell them."

When William's face changed when he thought of this, Nikan was sitting about five meters above him. Although he was chatting, he was still straightening his upper body. Due to the light, his face was also hidden in the darkness. But it was already morning, and a ray of sunlight had just shined in through the window frame.

This light was inserted between the two colors of the living room, making Nikan's expression clear and distant.

"Is he really the incarnation of God in the human world? No, no, what his words just now are completely beyond what a believer of God can have, or is he who represents God to test sentient beings?"

In fact, from Nikan's perspective, William at the other end of the light was the same. He was a little strange when he saw his expression change, but he still said, "Tell me, what do I hope my country will do?"

William took a deep breath, "Since Your Majesty is so clear about the population of European countries, I will not hide it. The population of Germany has been restored by this time. Thanks to God's blessing, after I obtained the entire northern land, the population is almost the same as that of Austria-Bohemia."

"oh?"

Nikan didn't know this information. He knew that the population of German countries would still be very large, but he didn't expect that there would be so many at this time.

"Therefore, our country can set up a standing army with a total number of about 100,000 in a short period of time. To be honest, our country has also copied some of the flintlock rifles based on your country's flintlock rifles. Although the firing rate is far less than that of your country, it is also the first country to have a large-scale flintlock rifle in Europe. After getting Hamburg, Hannover and Bremen, I got about 100,000 blacksmiths, half of which were converted into the production of flintlock rifles."

This news was unknown to the gray-clothed guards of the Great Xia Kingdom. The expressions of others except Nikan changed, but Nikan thought: "Fifty thousand people are handmade. If they are concentrated, they can still create a large number of flintlock rifles in a short time. With the scale of their standing army, it is not difficult to prepare one or two standing army guns, but there is no need to mention the output, quality and cost are far inferior to our country."

"But there is still some lack. I am here this time and hope to purchase three more flintlock guns and a base ammunition from your country. The price is easy to negotiate."

"In addition, if possible, I hope to purchase another 10,000 war horses..."

After hearing this, Nikan did not act angry or dissatisfied, but asked, "How many cavalry do you have now?"

"Report to your Majesty, there is only one legion"

"So you made a fortune after you took down the Hanseatic League Castle?"

"hey-hey"

"I agree, but have you thought of it? Can you cope with the other electorate and Austria if they unite to deal with you? Besides, the French will never allow a unified and powerful country to appear around them. In addition, you are the Dutch and the Swedes' enemies..."

William said indifferently: "Ahem, when I come to Konesburg, there is one more thing in addition to purchasing arms from your country..."

Nikan thought of what this matter was, and his expression changed, "Are you so confident? Can we escape unstoppably under the siege of the Dutch, Swedes, Austria and French under the premise that our country does not interfere in the wars of Europe?"

William's expression also changed drastically. He did not expect that Nikan would see through the main purpose of his visit this time.

"As long as the Daxia Kingdom remains neutral, I have my own way of doing anything else."

Nikan originally wanted to ask him what foreign aid he had, but then he thought: "What if he doesn't matter, as long as the Grand Duchy of Prussia takes action, the whole of Europe will be covered with blood. Let him go. His allies are mostly British, or the Dutch on both ends of the rat, or maybe the Spanish."

But suddenly I thought of something, "It seems that he is the one he is most concerned about. What he means is that as long as I, Daxia, will have the ability to defeat all the enemies around me! This is not right. Even if there are foreign players from Britain or Spain, it is almost impossible to defeat the Swedes, Austria, French, and Dutch at the same time. Could it be that the Grand Duchy of Prussia has fully mastered the secret of our country's gun making?"

"It is very likely that my country's periodic table of elements has been circulated here. Now people know that the quality of steel is mainly in the carbon content. How to control the carbon content, with the intelligence of Europeans, you may have already mastered it."

But he still had strong confidence, "My country has entered the era of industrialization, and it is not something they can shake."

So he said, "Don't worry, the Kingdom of Great Xia and Prussia are allies, and it was confirmed in the last Jamaica negotiation. We signed it all, what are you still worried about? Don't worry, go do it."

William left happily. He left Leopold and discussed with the Daxia Kingdom about purchasing guns and war horses. He left Konisburg on a ship that day.
