At 8 pm on October 28, Beijing time, British Cabinet Prime Minister Asquis and Foreign Minister Sir Edward Grey once again came to the German Embassy in China. There is no longer much time left before China gave an ultimatum, if tomorrow

During the negotiations, if Britain cannot give China an answer, then the war will come to Britain again. And Britain's fate seems to be destined and will be destroyed in this war!

After discussion with the royal family, the British government and the royal family have sent a final authorization to Prime Minister Asquis to make the final decision for the British government. Prime Minister Asquis can make a decision based on the actual situation, yes

Accepting the conditions of China, but rejecting it! This is not a good job for Prime Minister Asquis. Although the treaty was signed under China's pressure, as the person who signed the treaty, his fate was destined to be extremely

It is already certain that he lost his current position. Maybe the angry British people will tear him to pieces! Now, the only one who can help him is the Germans! Prime Minister Asquith

I just hope that with the help of Germany, China can reduce its requirements as much as possible. In this way, he will have an explanation when he returns to China!

In a secret room at the German Embassy in China, German Prime Minister Holvig, Foreign Minister Strezerman, British Prime Minister Asquis and Foreign Minister Sir Edward Grey held this secret meeting!

"His Excellency Prime Minister Holwig, Britain now needs the help of Germany, and the Chinese have issued a final threat to us! If we cannot meet their requirements, Britain will be completely destroyed! For Britain,

It will be a huge disaster! But at the same time, it is not a good thing for Germany! Once Britain is destroyed, Germany will directly face the strong pressure from China!" Prime Minister Asquith said!

Prime Minister Holvig nodded and said, "China is not only the enemy of Britain, but also the enemy of Germany! But, unfortunately, China is in its heyday and their national strength is still on a sharp rise!

Germany now has no strength to confront China after two years of war! Therefore, facing a strong China, we need to retreat!”

Prime Minister Holvig's words made British Prime Minister Asquis and Foreign Minister Sir Edward Grey darken. It is obvious that in the face of China's strong threats, Germany has already planned to give in! And this means that Britain will

Pay a heavy price for this!

"Prime Minister, the conditions put forward by the Chinese are too harsh. Once such conditions are signed, there will be no difference between Britain and the destruction of the country!" said Sir Edward Grey, the British Foreign Secretary.

"But, Britain has not really destroyed its country after all! And if Britain refuses the conditions proposed by the Chinese, it will be the real destruction. At that time, Britain will not have any chance!" said German Foreign Minister Strezerman.

"His Excellency Prime Minister Holvig, can the Chinese people lower their demands?" Prime Minister Asquis asked. Now Britain has only one way, that is, sign a peace treaty and end this war! Although the losses will be very heavy,

But at least it has saved the country! Of course, if the conditions proposed by China can be reduced a little, it will undoubtedly be the best!

"His Excellency Asquis, I regret to tell you that after the negotiations, I had a meeting with Chinese Prime Minister Wu Tingfang! During the meeting, we asked China to lower its demands a little, but this was rejected by China.

!China seems to insist that this time the conditions will not be changed, and China will not be regressing any more! And Britain only needs to make one choice!" Prime Minister Holwig said!

"Damn yellow-skinned monkeys, if I had known, I would have killed them all!" Sir Edward Grey cursed fiercely! If they had known that they would have ended today, after the victory of the Opium War, they would have

It is time to take the most cruel measures against China to ensure that China continues to weaken. In addition, they are also dissatisfied with Germany. If the Germans were not always thinking about challenging Britain's hegemony and would not hesitate to support China for this, perhaps

There will be no current situation! Of course, the Germans are shooting themselves in the foot! The objects they once supported have completely surpassed them! The Germans are also suffering! However, they

This has implicated the entire Western world! Germany's fault made the entire Western world pay for the bill, which made the British very angry!

In fact, Germany also regrets it very much! When they supported China and western Sichuan earlier, they just wanted to cause trouble for Britain! But no one expected that China would develop so rapidly, not for twenty years.

By the time he arrived, he had surpassed the old Western power, and then he took advantage of this world war to become the world's number one power! When the Germans thought of his former younger brother turning over and becoming the boss, they felt very frustrated.

!If they can give them another chance to choose, they will definitely not cause trouble for themselves!

"His Excellency Prime Minister Holvig, that is to say, we have no choice but to accept the Chinese's request?" Prime Minister Asquis said with a pale face! He even thought that once such a treaty was signed,

What kind of tragic fate will he suffer!

"Yes, Mr. Prime Minister Asquis! However, Germany has a suggestion, which may be helpful to the UK!" Prime Minister Holwig said. German Emperor William II has sent an order to request

They led to the success of this negotiation, and for this reason, Germany can compensate the UK. More importantly, Germany needs to completely tie Britain to its own chariot!

"Oh? What advice?" asked Prime Minister Asquith, as if a drowning man had caught a straw.

"British promised China's request and signed a peace treaty with China! Ceded the Channel Islands, Anglesey and Isle of Man to the Chinese! Regarding war reparations, although the total amount is as high as 3 billion Chinese dollars, 10% of them were included.

Thirty is Germany! Germany can exempt this part of the war compensation belonging to Germany! In addition, China requires the UK to demolish all large shipyards, and the German government can invest in the acquisition of these shipyards! However, the amount of the acquisition will not be too high.

After all, Germany's finances are also relatively tense now!" Prime Minister Holvig said!

Prime Minister Asquith's eyes lit up. This is a good idea. Not to mention anything else, Germany alone exempted those war reparations, which would be 900 million yuan less! In addition, those shipyards that were to be demolished were sold.

Give Germany also allows Britain to use more funds to repay war reparations or restore Britain's economy. However, there is another most important issue, that is, Britain's security! China has obtained the Channel Islands and Anglesey Island

And after the Isle of Man, there will definitely be troops deployed, which is like deploying troops at the doorstep of Britain's home! And Britain is limited by arms restrictions and is unable to resist at all! In this way, Britain's security will not be able to get any

Guaranteed! As long as China needs it, it can attack Britain at any time and defeat or even destroy Britain!

"Prime Minister Holvig, Britain is willing to accept Germany's advice! However, we hope that Germany can provide guarantees for Britain's security! In addition, Britain can develop its arms under Germany's asylum without being restricted by the treaty!" Ass

Prime Minister Quis said!

"Of course! After the signing of the Peace Treaty, Germany will deploy three armies, navy and air forces in the UK to fight against China! In addition, Britain can also rebuild the army and air force, but these armies must join the German army and air force sequence like the British navy and accept

Germany's command! Only in this way can these troops exist in the name of the German Army and Air Force! Don't worry about being threatened and attacked by the Chinese!" Prime Minister Holvig said! In this way, Britain has completely turned to Germany.

The rebuilt British Army, Navy and Air Force will also become a powerful supplement to the German army. When fighting against China in the future, Germany will not be weak!

"So, Mr. Holwig, can we stipulate the cooperation between our two sides in a secret agreement?" Prime Minister Asquis asked! Nowadays, Britain has lost its strength and must be more prepared to take precautions

OK! A secret agreement will help protect the interests of the UK! If Germany wants to return, not to mention anything else. Once this secret agreement is exposed, it will be enough to cause a feud between China and Germany!

"Of course, as you wish!" Prime Minister Holvig said!

After two hours of discussion, German Prime Minister Holvig and British Prime Minister Asquis signed a secret treaty on behalf of Germany and Britain, which stipulated the power and obligations of Germany and Britain.

, which makes them become close allies in the future, confront China together, and compete for world hegemony in the situation of war!

The "German-UK Secret Agreement" stipulates that Germany abandons claiming war reparations from Britain and provides guarantees for Britain's security after the war! In addition, Britain can rebuild the army, navy and air force with the help of Germany, of which the total strength of the army is 500,000

People! If a war between Germany and China breaks out, the British army, navy and air force will accept the unified command of the German General Staff and cooperate with Germany in the war! Germany guarantees that once it defeats China, Britain will receive generous rewards! The major shipyards in Britain,
Chapter completed!
