Li Junwei smiled and asked, "His Excellency Fredrich, do you know Chen Sheng and Wu Guang?"

"Is this the name of one person or the name of two people?" Fredrich responded with a smile after listening to Dan Tai Yunfeng's translation.

"Introduce these two characters to him, I'll go and unlock it first." Li Junwei told his son-in-law.

Dan Tai Yunfeng introduced in French: "This is a figure from our Qin Dynasty in China, nearly two thousand years ago. They were ordinary people, but because of the harsh Qin Dynasty's policies, they launched a rebellion. The rebel army was in a mighty way and swept across the core of the empire......"

"Is this true? You all know the two thousand years of events so clearly?" Fredrich felt incredible after hearing this.

"All dynasties in our civilization have historical books preserved." Dan Tai Yunfeng said proudly.

"No, I mean, would a group of civilians start such a large-scale resistance?" Fredrich explained.

Dan Tai Yunfeng immediately understood that Europa was completely different from Chinese civilization. In Chinese history, peasant uprisings emerged one after another. Qin had Chen Sheng and Wu Guang and Ming had Li Zicheng. Even if it did not reach the point of changing dynasties, it was of great significance. The core is that China had entered the feudal era early. Qin Shihuang traveled with ceremonial ceremonies. Xiang Yu saw the words, "that can be replaced." Liu Bang also said that a real man should be like this. And the kings, princes, generals and ministers still have a genius, which is also one of the cores of the imperial culture.

But Europe is completely different. The nobles ruled this land for thousands of years. Any dynasty changes are nothing more than one noble who replaced another noble.

Li Junwei had already returned at this time and said with a smile: "Yes, a spark can start a prairie fire."

Fredrich chewed on this sentence that had been translated without any charm, but was still very philosophical.

"The Chen Sheng and Wu Guang Uprising had a huge impact, but they did not complete the dynasty change. Xiang Yu and Liu Bang emerged suddenly. Liu Bang completed the dynasty change as the head of the pavilion and established the Han Dynasty." Li Junwei continued to tell the follow-up of the story.

Fredrich asked: "It's really a good story, but what does it have to do with the current affairs?"

"The resistance of all parts of Britain to James II is similar to that of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang. Although it may not be able to pull King James off, it is enough to prove the harm of James's harsh government. From the perspective of changing dynasties, everything is available. It is like making bread, flour, butter, stove and charcoal fire, just waiting for one person to pinch it together." Li Junwei said.

"You want me to be this person?" Fredrich asked.

Li Junwei laughed: "No, this person must be an Englishman, an Anglo-Saxon. If he succeeds in a short period of time, he should be an influential nobleman and gentleman. If he is a long-term person, he can also be a civilian."

"What exactly does that mean?"

"Your Highness's meaning is very simple. James II's regime will not last long." Dan Tai Yunfeng explained.

Frederi shook his head and said, "Maybe it's a difference in culture, or you don't know enough about Europe. James II is indeed a little stupid, but behind him is King Louis XIV. France is at its peak now, and there are few things he can't do."

Li Junwei laughed: "Louis XIV is just a king."

"So, the empire is willing to neutralize King Louis's energy?" Fredrich asked. If this is the case, it would be profitable. As Li Junwei said, no matter how strong Louis XIV is, he is just a king. France has a population of 20 million, the number one in Europe, but only one-fifth of the empire, and the territory is even worse. As long as the empire takes action, Louis XIV's resources are not worth mentioning at all.

"Of course not. At this stage, we don't want to break with France." Li Junwei said slowly.

Fredrich was even more confused: "To be honest, I really don't understand what you mean."

"You Europe has a strong religious culture, and Catholicism and Protestantism are incompatible. I believe that when the British civil war becomes more and more intense, many countries will take action openly or secretly, right?" Dan Tai Yunfeng asked.

Fredrich did not deny this. In fact, the Protestant circle in Europe was not satisfied with the empire's default on France's attack on Britain and the restoration of James II's Catholic rule. If Protestant countries in the Netherlands and Germany had long sent troops to support them, Louis XIV's counter-intentions could actually trigger a European war of magnitude like the Great Alliance War. After all, Britain is a very important Protestant country, and it can even be said to be the strongest existence in the Protestant circle. No Protestant country wants to lose Britain.

But the problem is that the Grand Alliance War has exhausted all the assets of all countries, and most countries are unable to intervene in the British war. But the future does not mean that it will not be possible. Everyone will do this immediately after a little breath.

Fredrich said: "Both are right. Can I understand this way that the Empire can abide by the Protestant state's support for the British Resistance, and also accept the restoration of Britain into a Protestant state, right?"

Li Junwei nodded slightly, and Fredrich asked, "But this is unreasonable. Although the main force in Britain is the French army, Britain has fallen to its current situation. Everyone knows that it was the work of your Highness Yu. You pushed down the house in Britain, but the house has just been pushed down and you have to participate in the reconstruction. It is really unreasonable."

"I never care whether it is reasonable or not when doing things. All I want is the interests of the empire." Li Junwei replied calmly.

In fact, the priority of weakening Britain in the continental strategy formulated by Li Junwei himself was very high, even higher than France, which was at its peak. This was mainly because Britain's glorious revolution gradually turned it into a bourgeois country. The development of productivity and the improvement of national strength of such a country will be very rapid. Therefore, Li Junwei wanted to kill Britain in the cradle by war, but this matter was difficult from the beginning.

First of all, the empire could not have invested a lot of resources just like France to beat Britain up, so the resources that Li Junwei could use were quite limited. Limited investment could only yield limited gains, so Li Junwei brought France.

However, after the British-French War broke out completely, Li Junwei knew from all aspects that this war was just an ordinary dynasty change and could not interrupt the British bourgeois process. It could only be said to be delayed and defeated. Britain is now in a state of civil war, with constant uprisings everywhere. James II's Catholic policy is actually just an appearance. The core is still the British economic foundation that cannot adapt to the monarchy and the superstructure of the Catholicism.

In Europe, where commerce and trade are developed, there are either Protestant countries like the Netherlands, or Venice, where they dare to say no to the Pope. And they have not implemented a real monarchy. Although there have always been monarchies in Britain before, the British monarchy has been slowly eroded by parliament. Capitalism has been developed very well, and feudal systems and ideas are obviously unacceptable.

Even if James II no longer regards Catholicism as the state religion, as long as he implements a monarchy, he will inevitably be overthrown.

In fact, James II was not unsuccessful. Li Junwei had already sent someone to tell him the method. This method was to liquidate. If all the British capitalists and new nobles were liquidated, Britain could become an absolute monarchy country like France. Li Junwei's father Li Mingxun did this. In the process of restoring the Central Plains, all the old landlords and literati were liquidated, and the empire truly established a dual constitutional monarchy.

However, James II obviously did not have such measurement and insight. He clearly rejected Li Junwei's method. James II could not abandon the high taxes brought by industry and commerce, and also needed to consolidate his rule and get rid of the control of Louis XIV by admiring the upper class of Britain. Therefore, on the surface, most members of the English Parliament were questioned, but only individuals were questioned, not the forces behind them, and they could also atone for their sins by donating money. This kind of policy that was not reliable on both sides and inappropriate was destined to not please James II at both ends. Li Junwei's judgment on the situation in the UK was that Britain was likely to fall into a state of long-term civil strife or even civil war.

Frederi listened carefully to Dan Tai Yunfeng's explanation, but could not accept this theory. At least in Europe, the monarchy is still the mainstream. The French king Louis XIV is a model of all kings or real power lords in Europe. Each real power lord wants to establish an absolute monarchy like Louis XIV in France.

Fortunately, Li Junwei and Dan Tai Yunfeng did not think of a systematic introduction, nor did they want to convince Fredrich that Li Junwei's purpose was just to make Fredrich believe his judgment on the situation.

Fredrich believed in Li Junwei's judgment that Britain would inevitably fall into a long-term civil strife, but his understanding was not Li Junwei, but from the perspective of political system, but based on realistic considerations.

Frederick was the lord of Europe. He knew what the changes of a country would bring. Although Martin Luther's Reformation was positive, how many people died in the German region due to the conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism. Britain also experienced bloody experiences from Catholicism to Protestantism.

"If you don't say anything, just talk about France. The French kings issued the Nantes Edict, proclaiming religious tolerance, ending many years of disputes in France. However, Louis XIV abolished the Nantes Edict, which led to the growing number of rebels in China, and it is still impossible to resolve it. The Huguenots either resisted at home or moved abroad, causing losses that were no less than launching a war to the outside world.

But the Huguenots in France are a minority, and most of them still believe in Catholicism. Even so, they still end up like this. For a country like England that is dominated by Protestants, Catholicism as the state religion will inevitably cause an uproar. Although James II has not yet asked Protestants to convert, the diplomatic brief you provided shows that he has asked public officials to be Catholics......" Fredrich said in a nagging manner.

Li Junwei glanced at Dan Tai Yunfeng helplessly and thought to himself that if he had known this guy could come to the same conclusion, he would not have talked so much nonsense with him. Especially the theory of monarchy and republicism shocked Frederick, making him seem to be trying to engage in some conspiracy in his country.

"Well, since you know it, there's no need to say more." Li Junwei interrupted Frederi's long speech and introduced: "I think Prussia can enhance your international influence by supporting the protests of the British Protestants, which will help your long-term plan."

Fredrich shook his head: "No, no, no, this kind of thing can be done, but it must not be said so. The emperor of the Holy Roman Empire was also a Catholic. If he said so, it would damage my image."

"Whatever, but I believe that Emperor Leobed should support it." Li Junwei said.

Fredrich nodded: "There is no doubt about this."

Austria's Habsburg is still the number one enemy in Louis XIV's eyes, but this country is sandwiched between France and the Ottomans. Now Austria's main strategic direction is to compete with the Ottomans in the Balkans for space, so anything that can break up the corners of France is acceptable.

"Then where should I start? It's not good to send troops directly. Even with your protection, I still don't want to provoke Louis XIV now." Fredrich said.

Li Junwei smiled and said, "Of course we can't send troops directly. Britain is in chaos now, and we can't find a reliable tool. Maybe you contact a certain noble today and he will be defeated and killed tomorrow, or surrendered to James II. Our judgment on the situation of civil strife in Britain is long-term, so we may not have to take action immediately. As for the tool, I will find one for you, that is William of the Orange family. This king is now under my control. If you need it, you can provide him with political refuge."

"Is that?" Fredrich was startled, and then said: "No, William of Orange is now a piece of red charcoal. I cannot protect him. This will trigger anger on both sides of France and the Holy Roman Empire."

Li Junwei was a little disappointed because his first goal was to ask Frederi to accept this hot potato, but Frederi still couldn't bear the benefit of taking over. Dare to provide protection to him would inevitably make him famous. He said: "Your Highness, William of Orange is too dangerous, but his wife Mary is a suitable one. No, if I only take over Mary, the Netherlands might have sheltered William, and the effect is very poor."

"If there is only one king left in England, and that person is Queen Mary, it would be the best." Li Junwei reminded.

Fredrich focused his attention, yes, William was so hot that he could die. He thought for a moment and immediately said, "That's it, I'll do everything."
