When everyone heard that the output in the fiefs would give priority to the army's purchase orders, they naturally agreed.

Armament Minister Giannis suddenly reminded: "His Royal Highness, Crown Prince, in three days, there will be a national strategic research meeting, on the feedback requirements of the army's grass-roots troops, to buy more aircraft from France for battlefield reconnaissance and artillery calibration"

Hearing Giannis's request to buy the plane again, Constantine was indifferent, but it was not easy to refuse directly.

Hearing Emai Nur's voice, Cantoriotis of the navy was immediately attracted to his attention: "The navy also needs some new warships. I heard that the submarines newly developed by Germany are very advanced and can Surface ships pose a great threat”

Before Cantoriotis finished speaking, Constantine shook his hand and interrupted: "Okay, okay, you two, three days later will be the day of the National Strategic Research Conference, when the top military and political leaders of Greece will gather. Together, you don't need to worry now"

Cantoriotis and Giannis looked at each other a lot, and they were a little unfinished, but the crown prince didn't want to discuss this matter at this time, so he had to give up.

Among the two, Giannis, who is the Minister of Armament, naturally stood on the side of the Army, supported the Army's request, allocated more military spending to the Greek Army, increased technical weapons, improved the strength of the Army, and responded to the imminent threat of the Bulgarian Army.

As the commander of the navy, Cantoriotis advocates investing more funds in the navy to consolidate the position of the Greek navy in the Eastern Mediterranean and improve its ability to influence the surrounding waters.

It's just that the government's finances are limited after all, and there is simply not enough military spending to meet the requirements of the navy and army at the same time.

The two have argued several times before Prime Minister Venizelos.

After the banquet, Constantine and Sophie stood side by side in front of the manor and watched everyone's carriage leave.

"As the supreme commander of the army, shouldn't you be more worried about the Bulgarian military now? Why do you have time to care about agriculture?" Sophie turned her head and looked at her husband.

"Soldiers have to eat well before they can fight," Constantine said, stretching.

・・・・・

On June 17, 1913, in the meeting room of the Plaza Palace.

King George and Constantine were seated together and co-chaired the meeting.

In front of the long square table, the government ministers headed by Venizelos and the military generals headed by Emanuel Inur are on both sides.

"Everyone, I called everyone to participate in the meeting today. The purpose should be known to everyone. Today, we mainly discuss the national strategic issues that are in line with Greece's actual situation, and use the strategy to guide Greece's future national military, politics and diplomacy," King George said first.

"In view of the successful experience of major countries in the world, a suitable and correct national strategy is of great significance"

The previous Greek state was weak and had internal and external aggression. It had always faced severe threats from foreign countries. It had always been exhausted and extremely passive.

Today's Greece, although there are still many hidden concerns, can be regarded as gaining a firm foothold in the Balkans.

"Looking at the world's major powers, in the process of rising, they are trying their best to implement national strategies, so what is Greece's strategy?" Constantine said.

In the process of rising, all countries in the world have practiced national strategies that fit their own realities, and have spared no effort to implement them.

Such as Britain's "glorious isolation" policy, and the "balance of power policy" adopted on the European continent.

It can be said that the United Kingdom can rise and successfully become the world's maritime and economic hegemony. The British people's wise and effective national strategy has contributed greatly.

The European Continental Balanced Policy allows European countries to entangle and balance each other in order to maintain their independent European status.

It can be said that this policy has benefited the UK a lot.

During the Seven Years War, the British who watched from the other side made a lot of money under the guidance of such a policy.

On the one hand, Britain waved banknotes and sponsored Prussia to go to war with the three major powers of France, Austria-Hungary and Russia at the same time.

On the other hand, the United Kingdom, relying on its powerful navy, went to war against the French colonies overseas and robbed the French colonies.

It was the Seven Years' War that cost France most of its overseas colonies.

In 1763, the Treaty of Paris was signed, allowing France to give up the ownership of Canada and New Orleans; the French colony of India only retained 5 poor trading stations; in the West Indies, France retained only Guadeloupe and Horses. Tinick.

Combined with the subsequent history, after the seven-year war, France completely lost its ability to compete with Britain for overseas colonies.

In particular, the loss of India put France at a complete disadvantage in the competition with Britain.

The United Kingdom, which has obtained India, has the strong capital to dominate the world, and it is called the British Empire.

It can be said that without the European Equilibrium and Glorious Policy, there would be no British Empire.

As for Germany, it is Bismarck's continental equilibrium policy.

Prussia was able to unify Germany also thanks to the leadership of Bismarck, a master of strategy.

During the Prussian-Austrian War, the Prussian army had the opportunity to attack Vienna, and Moltke strongly demanded to attack Vienna, but Bismarck was keenly aware of the trouble it would bring to Prussia and refused this request.

As for Russia, since Peter the Great, Russia's strategy has been to revolve around the estuary and to continuously expand to the sea.

After that, Russia, according to the strategic concept formulated by Peter the Great, expanded to Western Europe in the west, the Black Sea region in the southwest, and the Pacific region in the east.

From a historical perspective, the later Soviet Union followed this expansionary policy.

America's strategy ~www.wuxiahere.com~ resembles the glorious isolation of Britain, which later turned to the Monroe Doctrine.

America's political elites have known early on - don't get involved in troubles in Europe.

In 1780 Adams warned Congress: "Don't entangle the United States and European powers, and the exchanges between the two sides are limited to commerce, not politics, let alone war."

As the strength of the United States increased, the fifth president of the United States, Monroe, called out the Monroe Declaration, which was also the beginning of Americans seeing America as their back garden.

As for Japan, it is a "Brexit into Asia" strategy.

Messing around with these countries in Asia, there is no future, learning from European and American powers, and reforming to become stronger.

Taken together, the correct and realistic national strategies have indeed played an incomparably important role in the rise of these great powers.
