"If we are against the entire Western world, do we have a chance to win?" Wang Yuze asked. Although China has already given an olive branch to Germany and is ready to pay a large enough price to allow Germany to continue the war.
Germany has not given a positive response. Now, the Allies have put forward the "Yellow Peril Theory". In this case, China has to guard against the entire Western world to unite and start a war against China. Although China has now
It is not the backward and corrupt feudal dynasty in the past. But if you want to confront the entire Western world, the gap in strength is still a bit big.
"Your Majesty, if the Allies and Allies reconcile, then we must be prepared to go to war with the Western world. With the current strength of the empire, if we deal with the entire Western world alone, it will be difficult to win!" Chief of Staff Cai Yun, Chief of Staff
Said.
"Chief of the General Staff, we have the Air Force, the Navy Air Force and the Aircraft Carrier Fleet. With hundreds of millions of citizens, we will have even fewer troops in the Army. Under such circumstances, can we not defeat Western time?"
Minister Zhang Cheng disagreed a little.
"Yes, we have a great air advantage now. But don't forget that the technological strength of the West is much stronger than ours. The reason why we can lead the West in the weapon of aircraft is because we started more than ten years ago
It has been developed. Once the entire West unites, their technological strength will be fully exploded. Perhaps we will have an advantage in the early stage, but as the situation develops, this advantage will become smaller and smaller, and may even be completely eliminated.
The Western world has surpassed. In addition, in terms of industrial strength, the empire is not even comparable to the United States. If the entire Western world is combined, it is probably more than three times that of ours. As for the population, although the empire has a large population, the Western world will also add up.
It won’t be much less than Germany!” Chief of Staff Cai Yun explained.
"That means, is there no hope in the empire?" Wang Yuze's face looked a little ugly. The father and son worked hard for so many years, hoping to see China's rise and regain world hegemony. But now it seems that there is a danger of failure again.
!
"Your Majesty, it's not without any connection. With so many countries in the Western world, each country has its own plans, and it's difficult to work together. If the war really turns into a war between the East and the West, the losses will definitely be lost at that time.
Very serious. We Chinese are naturally tenacious. As long as your Majesty gives an imperial edict, the people of the empire will grit their teeth and persevere. But the Western world is different. Once the casualties reach millions, tens of millions or even more.
At that time, do they still have the courage to continue? Therefore, as long as the empire can take advantage of the situation of fighting the Western world at all costs, I think it will be at most a loss-win situation!” said Chief of Staff Cai Yun.
"Both losses are both sides? Although it is difficult to accept, it is better than being destroyed! The General Staff immediately began to formulate a plan to fight the Western world. If things really come to that point, then we can only have to do with them.
I'll try it. I want to see who can't hold on in the end!" A terrible light flashed in Wang Yuze's eyes. He is approaching middle-aged, and although he is much less angry, it is because he has been deliberately suppressing it.
The empire faced life and death. If he had to fight desperately, his determination would never be worse than any Western country.
"It's Your Majesty! But the situation may not be so serious. Neither German King William II nor the German government have made a choice yet. Let's see what their last choice is. I think, German King William II
He is not a fool, and he will not really believe that the Allied Congress will let Germany go easily. Once we are resolved by the Allied, the next one will definitely be Germany. After all, Germany poses too great a threat to Britain and France. If we don't kill Germany,
Britain and France will not be relieved!" Cai Yun said.
Wang Yuze nodded. The conflict between Germany and Britain and France is mainly due to market competition. After Germany's unification, industry developed rapidly. This requires a huge market to meet Germany's development. However, the world has long been divided up.
. Britain and France, which occupied most of the world's colonies, could easily block German products from their own countries and colonies, and they could also earn more wealth than Germany by plundering the colonies. This allowed German Emperor William
The II and the German government were very dissatisfied with the fact that this problem was not resolved, Germany would not be able to live in peace with Britain and France.
While China continued to maintain strong attention to Europe, German Emperor William II and the German government seemed to be at the center of a storm. Germany's next choice was directly related to the development of the war situation of the world war. Germany was the end of the Allies and the Allies.
The war, declared war on China in the East, or abide by the alliance and continued to fight with the allies, all attracted the favor of the whole world.
Before Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi arrived in Berlin, the special envoy sent by the US government also arrived in Berlin secretly and with German Prime Minister Teobaden.
Feng.
Bateman.
Holvig held a secret talk. However, Germany kept it highly confidential. Even if China tried many ways, it did not know the content of their negotiations.
On June 20, Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi arrived in Berlin. Regardless of the fatigue of boats and trains, Tang Shaoyi visited German Prime Minister Teobaden that night.
Feng.
Bateman.
Holvig also conveyed China's concerns about whether Germany will continue to fulfill its alliance. In response, Teobaden.
Feng.
Bateman.
Prime Minister Holvig patted his chest and promised that Germany would not betray the covenant. However, no one can guarantee how the German government would choose and what variables would be before making a choice. As for that paper
The covenant has no binding force at all. As some people say, the only purpose of the covenant being signed is to be torn.
In fact, at this time, the German Emperor William II and the German government were also in a dilemma. How should Germany choose? This made them very embarrassed. Because this not only concerns the progress of the world war, but also concerns Germany.
Although China and the Allies have offered a series of conditions, Germany does not believe it. Especially the Allies Group, both sides have fought each other before, and Germany has paid the army to lose millions of people and the navy for this.
The price of the annihilation of the main force. Even if the Allies have always advocated the Yellow Peril theory, it is unlikely that Germany will immediately let go of its prejudice and make peace with the Allies.
On the evening of June 21, German Emperor William II held a secret meeting at the Worry-free Palace in Potsdam to discuss Germany's next strategy. He could not act arbitrarily in matters related to Germany's fate.
In addition to German Emperor William II and Crown Prince William, there was also Prime Minister Teobaden.
Feng.
Bateman.
Holvig, General Falkenhain, Chief of Staff and Admiral Tirpitz, Secretary of the Navy.
"Everyone, everyone understands the situation facing the empire now. The Americans propose that we end the war with the Allies, deal with the Chinese together, and avoid the rise of the Eastern people. Britain and France also agree with this, at the same time,
The Chinese also hope that we can continue the war. So, what should we do next?" asked Emperor William II of Germany, with no expression on his face. Since the main force of the German Navy's high seas fleet was destroyed.
His face has always been gloomy. The navy's crushing defeat is equivalent to ending Germany's determination to fight for world hegemony! At least now, Germany has been eliminated in the war for world hegemony. Whether Germany is a reversal of the Allies
It is basically impossible to continue to form an alliance with China, and it is impossible to seize world hegemony again. This made William II, who had been ambitious for decades, very sad and angry. Could it be that Germany really only has to be a European power and cannot become a
World overlord?
"Your Majesty. We died and killed so many of them in the war with the Allies. Will they easily allow us to withdraw from the war? Although the conditions given by the Allies seem very generous, as long as we
The army can just retreat to the land. However, once we have no restraint, will the Allies continue to go to war with us after defeating China? At that time, without the support of the Chinese, can we still resist the Allies? Britain and France
The country, especially France, certainly does not want their status on the European continent to be threatened! What's more, the French have always wanted to avenge the French-Prussian War. Alsace and Lorraine have always wanted to take back
"The Navy Minister Marshal Tirpitz said. The navy's defeat caused him a great blow. However, he did not sink. After quickly adjusting his state, he has now begun to organize the German navy.
The warships were rested and the injured warships needed repairs. At the same time, the German Navy also planned to further expand the submarine force. Submarines have become the only weapon that the German Navy can confront Britain.
"Your Majesty, on the Western Front, the Imperial Army now occupies the vast majority of Belgium and the northeastern France. On the Eastern Front, the Imperial Army has defeated Russia many times, and now it has cooperated with the Austro-Hungarian army to invade Russia and occupy a large number of them.
These are the results of the bloody battles of the Imperial soldiers. If they were returned to them like this, they would probably disappoint the Imperial soldiers!" General Falkenhain, Chief of Staff, also said. You must know that in order to seize
