Vol 4 Chapter 155: The end of the World War

8 On August 18, 1917, the Allied Coalition forces surrounded Munich, and on August 20, the Bulgarian-Russian Union surrounded Nuremberg.
The Hindenburg government, which had no soldiers available, could only allow the Allied Coalition forces to stand in South Germany, but Dante Kristof did not stop the offensive and the main forces continued to advance north.
兴 On August 21, the Hindenburg government forced the high seas fleet to fight in order to obtain more favorable conditions for peace talks. Navy soldiers who could not stand the pressure launched an uprising and occupied the port.
On August 25th, the Allied Forces of the Allied Powers and the Nuremberg-Russian Allied Forces successfully joined forces. At the time of the crisis, the Germans could no longer afford to attack Paris. The Hindenburg government, while drawing troops from the front, actively defended, and resumed secret talks with the Allies.
On August 28th, Berlin workers were uprooted by the Hindenburg government because of a hungry belly.
In September, mutiny began to spread across the country, and the German government began to lose control of the locality.
慕尼黑 On September 6, Munich fell, the Kingdom of Bavaria surrendered, and South Germany was completely occupied.
At this time, the German General Staff was desperate for the war. On September 10, the Hindenburg government was forced to announce the end of the war, and the two sides reached a ceasefire.
That night, William II's family fled to the Netherlands for political asylum.
双方 On September 11, in a carriage in Paris, the two sides signed an armistice agreement.
At this point, the world war that broke out on March 3, 1915 lasted two and a half years, and finally came to an end, and the world history entered a new chapter.
The Foreign Minister Megeve said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the World War is over. Just now the Germans have signed an armistice agreement with Paris, Britain, France, Russia, and our representatives in Paris."
I heard this news, Ferdinand's first reaction was not excitement, but a relief, the terrible world war was finally over.
At the same time, he also has a sense of pride. He finally changed the world. The world war that lasted more than four years in history was shrunk to two and a half years!
Compared with history, the scope of this world war affected the population, and the number of participating countries was much less than in history.
The loss of puppets to human beings cannot be compared with that in history. The most obvious thing is that the strength of Britain and France is not weakened as much, and Americans have not shaken.
Thinking about it, Ferdinand found himself looking like an angel of peace? Tossing around, at least millions of people have survived because of his butterfly effect!
Seeing Ferdinand not responding for a long time, Megeve reminded: "Your Majesty, it is time to prepare for the aftermath!"
Ferdinand returned to God, yes the Germans surrendered, but things are not over yet, it is time to start cutting the cake.
Jeff Ferdinand said with some excitement: "Call the cabinet right away for a meeting. We will send a delegation to Paris to cut the cake!"
"Yes!" Metiev replied, and he ran out as soon as his voice fell.
Ferdinand watched Megeve run out, he really wanted to call him back, inform people to come to the meeting, and did not need the Foreign Minister to go in person!
Alas, watching him so excited Ferdinand held back again. It seems that he has returned to more than 20 years ago, and he has just succeeded in the throne shortly after, and took everyone to win the second Poser War. At the time, Megeve also had this expression.
Since then, as Bulgaria has won more and more victory, everyone will still be very happy about the victory, but it will not feel like that again.
The years are ruthless, everyone is old in a flash! This is always relatively speaking. In terms of age, the age of the leadership of the Bulgarian government has just reached the average level of the leaders of all countries.
The age of 50 or 60 is still a golden stage in politics, and the cabinets with an average age of 20 or 30 at the time were abnormal performances.
Uh ...
"The world war has ended, and now calling you over is mainly two things:
1. Form a negotiating delegation immediately and prepare to go to Paris for negotiations;
2. Post-war treatment of allies.
These two issues can also be handled as one issue. Let me talk about the candidates for the delegation first. What advice does the Prime Minister have? "
The named Constantine said hesitantly: "Sir, this war has lasted so long. All governments need to inspire people with victory. The specifications of the negotiations are probably very high. The British are likely to be the Prime Minister himself. So I think it might be more appropriate for me to go in person. "
Ferdinand knew that as the host of the French, there is no need to pay attention. The president of the family will definitely go out and be suppressed by the Germans for so long. Why should they be once more beautiful, no need to mention it.
Russians have no one to pay attention to them anymore. It is already everyone's care for their emotions to give them the treatment of victory.
Courtesy treatment can be given, but in actual benefits, everyone is welcome. The fragmented Russian empire no longer has the right to speak, and may receive a small portion of war compensation, which can be regarded as a consolation prize.
Therefore, it is the British who really need to consider. If the representatives sent out are not equal, then it is easy to be in a weak position in the negotiations. As for the reassignment of representatives, this kind of shameful thing is not good.
Ferdinand continued to ask, "What about the other members?"
Constantine thought about it and said, "This negotiation involves many aspects. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, the Navy, the Army, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Education, and the Colonial Ministry are best to send professionals to participate. . "
Jeff Ferdinand thought for a while and said, "Okay, that's it. The prime minister led the team, and all the ministries and commissions sent professionals to participate.
Chekov, you can also prepare for it. Germany will certainly be chaotic for some time after the war. You should pay attention to it and see if you can dig in some talents by the way. It is not only Germany. Other countries can also start if it is convenient.
Next, let's discuss how to deal with Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. The main problem is the compensation of each country. It would be better if some colonies can be obtained!
虽然 Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire has fallen, there must still be war compensation, and the central Danube plain. If the Austro-Hungarian Empire wants to recover, it must pay a ransom! "
The Minister of Finance took the lead to say, "Your Majesty, for this world war, we spent a total of 40.65 billion levs (approximately 1.626 billion pounds), and the economic loss to our country was as high as 120 billion levs (approximately 48 Billion pounds).
As a victor, we must pass on this cost to the enemy. I propose to claim 52.5 billion levs (about 2.1 billion pounds) from Italy, 75 billion levs (about 3 billion pounds) from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Germany Claim for 28 billion levs (1.6 billion pounds) for a total amount of 167.5 billion levs (about 6.7 billion pounds).
This is to calculate all our post-war expenses, soldier casualty pensions, disarmament expenses, etc., and then wipe out the odds! "
Jeff Ferdinand rubbed his forehead. This is just talking nonsense with his eyes open. What is war expenditure? The Ministry of Finance has directly added all government expenditures from 1915 to the present, all of which are military expenditures.
The economic loss behind, when the did Bulgaria have such a large economic loss? Why doesn't he know? Did he also add up the economic losses on the newly-occupied land, so barely enough to make up!
Jeff Ferdinand thought for a while and said, "Well, here are all your own people. There is no need to be so cautious. Everyone can discuss our bottom line. You can pull this number slowly at the negotiation table!"
What a joke, Bulgaria alone claims a huge compensation of up to 67 pounds. Even if it is passed at the peace conference, they can't afford it!
According to Ferdinand's estimation, if there is no accident, Bulgarians can get four or five layers of compensation; the Germans can get up to about 10% of the compensation; the Austro-Hungarian compensation can probably be obtained To more than half.
This is calculated based on the contributions of everyone on the battlefield. Bulgaria's main achievement was to beat down Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Basically, they only stepped on the Germans. England and France played so hard, naturally. They have big heads.
The Austro-Hungarian Empire has gone backwards. The war compensation must have been greatly reduced. The key is that Bulgaria has already occupied people's land. As long as there is a deduction, there is still a fart!
At most, he only asked for a land ransom, and this part of the money had to be repaid to the French. At that time, in order to kill the Germans earlier, the French agreed to take over the debt of Bulgaria from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
This part is equivalent to no more, the rest is that the Italians may have a little more compensation, but they ca n’t stand the poor in Italy, and their repayment ability is limited!
As soon as Ferdinand was interrupted, the Minister of Finance immediately responded, and then said cautiously: "Your Majesty, our Ministry of Finance is not demanding. As long as this war compensation can be paid off all our debts, We can pay for our aftermath expenses. "
Ferdinand secretly calculated that now Bulgaria is also in debt and all owe: John Bull 640 million pounds, France 430 million pounds, American 210 million pounds, and other countries totaling about 130 million pounds, totaling 1.41 billion pounds .
Such a huge sum of money needs to be repaid by the defeated country. This is only the Bulgarian family. If you add other members of the Allied Countries, God knows that they can pay off in the year of the monkey, it seems that the transfer of debt is the king!
But think about it, in history, the German family would have to compensate 269 billion gold marks (1 gold mark = 0.358 grams of gold), which is equivalent to 96,302 tons of gold, or 13.154 billion pounds!
数字 The compensation figure proposed by the Ministry of Finance is nothing, at least it was passed at the peace conference.
Ferdinand thought about it and said, "Then our bottom line is that the Austro-Hungarian Empire pays French debts for us, the Italians pay us 30 billion levs (about 1.2 billion pounds), and Germany pays us 20 billion levs ( (About 800 million pounds)!
Accept the colony to pay off debts, and also accept other physical debts we need!
In addition, I also ask you to try to transfer our debts, for example, we owe Americans 210 million pounds. If they can accept the Germans to pay us, they can transfer 300 million pounds of German debt to them!
If there are European and American consortia willing to take over, we can also sell these debts, the reason is that we need to return funds as soon as possible for national construction! "
The Chancellor of the Exchequer Kennedy said in surprise: "Your Majesty, this is too much for us to lose, these consortiums will surely rob the fire!"
Ferdinand said unquestionably: "Then let them rob and take advantage of the fire. Don't forget that Germany and Italy's repayment ability is not unlimited. In the short term, they will never be able to pay off huge war reparations!
Instead of spending decades to collect this compensation, it is better to show a part in advance and use it to build our country.
From the perspective of investment science, as our country's economy develops, fiscal revenue naturally increases, and it is a permanent increase. In fact, we are more cost-effective! "
Well, this is Ferdinand flickering again, mainly because the Germans in history have been paying until 1983, before paying off the compensation, can he afford it?
Colonial problem? Sorry that Bulgaria does not have much demand now. After the annexation of the Ottoman Empire, the colony of the Germans has an optional attitude. Anyway, Britain and France despise it, and in the end it is Bulgaria.
In this regard, Ferdinand is very confident. There is only one Somalia left in the Italian colony, and the German colony is not of much value. Britain and France will not swallow them all. For them, this Many places in it are operating at a loss, which is totally a burden!
Uh ...
巴黎 Paris, France, the end of the World War, the news was spread by politicians, and people were caught in crazy celebrations. If Germany now launches a sneak attack, maybe it can really be a world war.
This possibility naturally does not exist. The British and French forces are celebrating for the victory of the war, and the Germans on the opposite side are not idle. They are also starting to celebrate, even though they have lost!
The truce is just now, who knows how miserable the future will be? Getting rid of this cruel war is equivalent to picking up a small life from the battlefield. How can we not celebrate it?
Uh ...
The birth of the radiotelegram ~ EbookFREE.me ~ connected the world together. Within a few hours after the end of the World War, the news was already on the desks of politicians in various countries. In a few hours, it will appear in the street newspaper.
怎么 样 How should we face the new international situation? This is a new problem for politicians. Now not only are the participating countries thinking about how to deal with the Germans, even the neutral countries are very concerned about this issue.
At the White House in Washington, the United States, after receiving the news, President Wilson hurried to hold a staff meeting to discuss countermeasures.
During the World War, Americans did not invade the interests of Britain and France, and even there were many radical groups in the country. They also advocated that all European forces be driven out of the American continent. Fortunately, their goals were not achieved, otherwise the trouble is even more serious. It's big.
Don't look at the Americans in the next generation. They are still pretending to be grandchildren. Economically, they are number one in the world, and they are still soft-footed shrimp in the military.
The army does not need to consider, anyway, the tens of thousands of soldiers can be ignored; although the navy is now only the John Bull in terms of tonnage, but the combat effectiveness is far behind, and the gap between the two sides in shipbuilding technology alone is still more than ten years!
Now that the World War is over, the power of Britain and France will surely return to the American continent again, and they must bear the brunt of the overlord.
Uh ...
