"The bullying has gone too far! The Chinese have bullied others too much! They have already reached our doorstep! Father, we can no longer remain silent, we must fight back, and we must let the Chinese know how powerful we are!" Crown Prince William
Jumping up and down like a monkey. China supports Irish independence. The Republic of Ireland
The alliance with China and the fact that China will deploy a large number of troops in Ireland undoubtedly stung the nerves of the distinguished Crown Prince. As if he felt that he had been greatly insulted, he began to strongly persuade Kaiser Wilhelm II and Germany
The government remains tough on China to safeguard Germany's interests and Germany's face!
"Friedrich, sit down!" Kaiser Wilhelm II said with a dark face! China has harmed Germany's interests and adopted such an aggressive posture. This is not a matter of a day or two! Moreover, as for China
It has happened a long time ago that we have reached the doorstep of Germany! Nothing else
It is said that China has occupied the Italian islands of Sicily and Sardinia, the French island of Corsica, and the Spanish Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean. These pose a great threat to Germany, like a sharp knife.
The dagger hit Germany's soft belly directly!
Seeing that Kaiser Wilhelm II was angry, Crown Prince William had to sit down angrily! However, his eyes showed unwillingness. Obviously, Crown Prince William was very normal about the kind of compromise that Germany was currently adopting.
Dissatisfied! He believed that even if Germany
Compared with China, it is slightly inferior, but the gap is not very big! Moreover, Europe is Germany's home field. If Germany adopts a tough attitude, the Chinese may be frightened. In this case, Germany will be able to gain
More benefits!
Seeing Crown Prince William's expression, William II was also a little helpless! Crown Prince William was even more headstrong and arrogant than him. If such a crown prince became the emperor of Germany in the future, would it be good or bad for Germany? After all,
, the external threat that Germany now faces is very serious! Although the world war was won, the enemies that Germany faced were
More powerful! If Crown Prince William still has this arrogant character, then maybe William II should really consider the heir to the throne! However, overall, Crown Prince William's performance is pretty good, but
When facing China, there are often extreme behaviors! William II can also understand this. When
Initially, it was officially because of Germany's support for China, including the initial Western Sichuan government, that China developed rapidly. However, the speed of China's development was so amazing that it completely exceeded Germany's imagination, which directly affected Germany's expectations greatly.
influence. And now, China has posed a serious threat to Germany's interests, and there is quite a move.
It feels like shooting oneself in the foot! Even William II was very angry about China's "betrayal", but he suppressed this anger very well and did not let it affect him.
It's just a judgment on state affairs. However, judging from Crown Prince William's current ability, it is still lacking, and he needs to practice for a few more years!
"Your Majesty, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words are a bit extreme, the main intention is still very correct! It seems that the Chinese have completely adjusted their foreign strategy and regard us as their main enemy, and their series of deployments have also
It is completely aimed at us! If this continues, the empire will be completely at a disadvantage!" said Field Marshal Falkenhayn, the German Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff!
"There is no way around this! The Chinese have too obvious advantages now. Germany will not have the strength to challenge China in the next five years! Therefore, what we need now is time. Even if we pay a certain price for this, it is worth it."
Yes! Only our army can defeat China, which gives us the ability to ensure
The interests of the empire!" said Navy Minister Marshal Tirpitz! The confrontation between the Chinese Navy and the German Navy in the Strait of Dover shocked him greatly and made him realize the gap between the German Navy and the Chinese Navy. Therefore,
He advocates that Germany avoid a fierce conflict with China now and accumulate strength first!
William II nodded. Although he has the ambition to dominate the world. However, when Germany's national strength is still unable to realize his grand cause, he can only endure it! Only by enduring can Germany have a chance! If it is done now
If a conflict breaks out with China, Germany will only lose its opportunity completely! Although it is very painful to endure. However, for the future of Germany, William II has no other choice!
"Your Majesty, the Chinese have a very good saying, 'It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge.' The gap between us and China is gradually widening. Now only if we catch up can we shorten the gap between the two sides and make it possible to win the war."
Defeat the Chinese and win in future wars! Therefore, what we need now is time to digest the fruits of victory we have obtained in the war, to integrate our strength, and at the same time further improve our military strength!" German Prime Minister Ho
Ervig also said!
"Yes, the most important thing for us now is to develop our own strength! As for the Chinese's continuous expansion, let them go! As long as we can preserve most of Germany's interests, when we become stronger, we will be able to put aside today's shame
Returned to the Chinese doubled!" William II said solemnly! The word "endurance" has a knife on the head, and enduring humiliation will undoubtedly make everyone very sad.
Tangled! However, considering the overall situation, I have to do this! For the sake of future hegemony, William II had no choice but to make this choice! At the beginning, China was invaded by the Western world. At that time, Wang Xiao, the patrol envoy to western Sichuan, and later
Didn’t the Chinese Emperor Wang Yuze also do everything possible to please Germany? Since his opponent could put down his posture, then William II believed that he could do the same!
Wilhelm II has made his position clear, and the ministers of the German government and military have no choice but to comply!
"Your Majesty, I think the most important thing for us now is to start peace negotiations immediately and distribute the fruits of victory in this world war! Then turn the empire's main energy from military to economic construction! In this war
During the war, the empire itself was not attacked, but France was defeated when we gained it.
It has become a scorched earth. Although the foundation is still there, it will take a certain amount of time to recover! In addition, Britain has already turned to us, and the industrial strength of the empire may not be much worse than China, which looted American industrial equipment!
At that time, we can still launch a comprehensive competition with China!" Prime Minister Hollweger suggested!
"So, what is the main obstacle to convening a peace negotiation conference now?" William II asked.
"Your Majesty, the British have not surrendered to the Chinese so far, and the Chinese therefore refuse to admit that the war is over! If the Chinese do not agree, then this peace negotiation meeting cannot be held.
Yes!" said German Foreign Minister Stresemann!
"Let's negotiate with the British and let them surrender to the Chinese as soon as possible. There is no point in continuing to delay like this! And the longer it is delayed, the worse it will be for everyone!" Kaiser Wilhelm II said! One day of war
If it is not over, the Chinese will be able to legitimately deploy their main forces in Europe, which will prevent Germany from shifting its energy to economic construction! Only when the external environment stabilizes can Germany concentrate on developing its economy and improving its military strength!
"Yes, Your Majesty!" said Foreign Minister Stresemann! Britain has now completely turned to Germany. I believe that the British side will not refuse Germany's suggestion! Moreover, the Chinese army continues to stay on British soil, which is for
For the UK, this is definitely not a good thing!
"Your Majesty, the government believes that this peace negotiation after the world war is a good opportunity to showcase Germany to the world! Therefore, we can ask the leaders of other Allied countries and the Chinese to come to Berlin to participate in the peace negotiation meeting.
In this case, it will undoubtedly further improve Germany's status in the international community!" said Prime Minister Hollweg!
Kaiser Wilhelm II was convinced of this, but he also knew the problems he faced. The peace negotiation meeting was held in Berlin. The member states of the Allied Powers may not have any doubts, but the Chinese will definitely not agree! As a
As the emerging world's top power, China's international image, especially in the West, has always been relatively poor! The Chinese will definitely have the same intentions as Germany. It's just that because Britain has not surrendered to China before, China
There has been no mention of convening a peace conference!
"The cabinet and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should first propose to the member states of the Allied Powers! If they obtain their consent, they will then consult the Chinese for their opinions!" William II said!
"Yes, Your Majesty!" German Prime Minister Holweg and Foreign Minister Stresemann replied!
Under pressure from Germany, the British government finally gave up. On July 11, the British government announced its formal surrender to China! At the same time, Germany's proposal to hold a peace negotiation conference in Berlin also received support from other Allied powers.
The consent of the member states! After all, Berlin is closer to these Allied member states.
However, the German proposal met with strong opposition from China! China claimed that as the country that made the greatest contribution to this world war, the peace negotiation conference should be held in China! Therefore, China proposed
The Beijing Peace Conference was convened to discuss the handling of the Allied Powers and post-war arrangements! (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
