Chapter 1404 We want Corsica

After the signing of the treaty between the victorious countries and Russia, this means that the peace meeting has been completed halfway! Next, only France and Britain are left! The victorious countries related to these two countries are China, Germany and Austria.

To be precise, the Hungarian Empire is mainly a game between China and Germany! This has also attracted the attention of other victorious countries! After all, both Britain and France were one of the most important countries in the world before they fell!

Although it fell, if any country can swallow these two countries, its national strength will inevitably increase explosively!

Germany was the main one who defeated France. Of course, China also gave the French navy a fatal blow at sea! The Austro-Hungarian Empire did not participate in the battle against France! However, France has a vast overseas colony! According to the original agreement, these overseas colonies

, it is also part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire! Of course, the Austro-Hungarian Empire can only make demands on those overseas colonies!

On October 25, negotiations with France officially began! At 9 a.m., French Prime Minister Joseph Kayo and Foreign Minister Giustin de Servi came to the conference room! They looked serious and had a look in their eyes.

Strong sadness. The former world power can only be slaughtered by others! This is also a huge blow to the arrogant French! Of course, they can only accept it!

"Gentlemen! The negotiations with France have officially begun! Prime Minister Holvig, what is your country planning to deal with France?" asked Chinese Prime Minister Wu Tingfang! Now France is completely occupied by the German army, and the disposal plan for France is also completely based on the

Germany-led!

"As one of the most important members of the Allied Powers, France is also the culprit in provoking this war! In the past two years of war, it caused serious damage to Germany. Germany spent a lot of national strength for this war.

Millions of troops were lost! Therefore, we need to deal with France severely! The German government demanded that France ceded the land north of the Loire and east of the Rhone to Germany! France gave up all overseas colonies and came from the victorious countries

Distribution! And pay Germany 5 billion Chinese yuan in war reparations! The French government is not allowed to establish a navy and air force, the French army shall not exceed 100,000 people, nor shall it have artillery, tanks and armored vehicles with a caliber of more than 100 millimeters! Germany has

Power is stationed in France to maintain social stability in France!" German Prime Minister Holvig said expressionlessly. The German government has already agreed on the solution to France.

French Prime Minister Joseph Kayo and Foreign Minister Giustin de Servi opened their mouths and their eyes wide, and they could not believe all this. The requests made by the Germans are so hard to believe! Not just the representative of France

Shocked, the representatives of the other victorious countries also began to discuss. With the previous solutions to Italy and Germany, the Germans were completely talking about the lion!

"His Excellency Prime Minister Holvig, the conditions proposed by your country are too harsh. The French government will never agree to such conditions!" French Prime Minister Joseph Kayo said angrily! If the Loire River is north of Rona

If the land in the eastern part of the river is cedeed to Germany, France will lose 60% of its territory and 70% of its population! Moreover, these areas are basically the most industrially developed regions in France. After losing these territories,

France will completely become a third-rate country! In addition, France will not pay off the war compensation of 5 billion Chinese yuan even in a hundred years! Two years of war has long emptied France's wealth and finances

It has long been bankrupt! After France was defeated, the loss of overseas colonies became a foregone conclusion. Under such circumstances, France was unable to repay these war reparations! In addition, although the French government was dissatisfied with the restrictions on arms,

But I also know that this cannot be changed! Italy and Russia were both dealt with in this way before, and France will definitely not be exceptional! But even so, such conditions are obviously impossible for the French government to agree!

"His Excellency Joseph Kayo, this is the last request of the German government. France can raise objections, but it must agree to our request! Otherwise, Germany will continue to occupy France's military, or directly annex France!" German Prime Minister Huo Huo

Lvig said sternly! After France surrendered unconditionally, the French army had been disarmed. Now France is like meat on a chopping board, and can be slaughtered by the Germans! In addition to silently enduring it, France has the ability to resist.

All are gone!

French Prime Minister Joseph Kayo and Foreign Minister Giustin de Serbia were full of bitterness. This time the conditions were more harsh than those proposed by Prussia after the end of the French-Prussian War thirty years ago!

"Prime Minister Wu Tingfang, do China have any requirements for France?" Prime Minister Holvig asked politely. Although China did not participate in the battle in France, it destroyed the main force of the French navy. Germany also knew that it wanted to completely

Putting aside China and swallowing France alone is simply unrealistic! Not to mention anything else, a large part of France's vast overseas colonies have fallen into China's hands! Although the secret agreement reached between China and Germany

Among them, they promised to hand over Africa to the allies for disposal. However, now it seems that China has chosen to forget this! Their actions in Africa are completely competing with Germany for these colonies!

"Although Germany has always been dominant in the war against France! However, China also played a great role! We eliminated the main force of the French Navy and strongly supported Germany's operations in France! Therefore, the Chinese government believes that

We should receive 20% of the total war reparations paid by the French government! In addition, France in Corsica needs to be ceded to us!" said Chinese Prime Minister Wu Tingfang! No matter how many war reparations the Germans extorted from France, China wants 10%

Twenty, if it is 5 billion Chinese yuan, it will be 1 billion Chinese yuan! In addition, Corsica has long been in the hands of China!

Corsica is the fourth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, with the three islands in front, Sicily, Sardinia and Cyprus. Among them, Sicily and Sardinia were taken away by China from Italy, and Cyprus originally belonged to

The Ottoman Turkish Empire, but in 1878, the Ottoman Turkish Empire leased Cyprus to Britain! After the war began, China took the opportunity to occupy the island! However, when the Ottoman Turkish Empire joined the Allies,

I had contacted China and wanted to take back Cyprus Island. However, China did not agree. In addition, the Navy of the Ottoman Turkish Empire was too weak, so it was even more impossible to take back Cyprus Island by force! Of course, this also gave

A source of conflict has been laid between China and the Ottoman Turkish Empire!

Corsica is the hometown of Napoleon, and its geographical location is very important. It is only more than 200 kilometers south of France and only 200 kilometers away from Rome, the capital of Italy. If the new fighter jets of the Chinese Air Force are deployed here, it can completely block the entire France.

South! Even if the Germans acquired the territory east of the Rhone River in France and obtained the entrance to the Mediterranean, they were still within the attack range of the Chinese Air Force! This would be of great benefit to China blockade of Germany!

The French representatives did not respond to China's demands. Anyway, the Germans have already asked for 60% of France's territory. It's nothing to lose an island with an area of ​​more than 8,600 square kilometers!

The German representatives looked not very good-looking. The German government of course knew the importance of Corsica's geographical location. However, the Mediterranean is under the control of China, and Germany is not ready yet.

, The Chinese Army has landed on Corsica and occupied it! In addition, China demanded 20% of the war compensation, which also made Germany unsatisfied! Germany defeated France after desperate attempts.

And despite the infamy, the Chinese people had to share 20%, which made them feel at a disadvantage!

"His Excellency Wu Tingfang, Corsica can be occupied by China! But is 20% of the war reparations too large? Although the Chinese Navy defeated the main force of the French Navy, it was mainly after the German Army captured Paris.

France surrendered!" French Foreign Minister Strezerman said!

"Twenty percent of war reparations are not much. Compared with China's efforts, it is completely reasonable to obtain one-fifth of war reparations!" said Tang Shaoyi, Chinese Foreign Minister!

In the end, after some debate, China agreed to reduce the total amount of war reparations received to 12%. Germany saw that China would not make any concessions, so it had to agree!

However, the key issue now is that the French government does not agree to pay so much war reparations! Therefore, German Prime Minister Holvig and Foreign Minister Strezerman intimidated the French representative, claiming that if the French government does not agree,

Germany will directly annex France!

Faced with the German intimidation, the French representative panicked. On the one hand, he reported to the country and begged for mercy to Germany, hoping that Germany could reduce the amount of compensation!

As a result, it was not until the next day, October 26 that the two sides reached an agreement! The French government paid Germany and China a total of 3.5 billion Chinese yuan war compensation, of which Germany received 80%

8. China has obtained 12% of its territory. In addition, Germany has obtained 60% of France's territory, while China has only obtained Corsica! (To be continued. Please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster
