v6 Chapter 38： Germany surrendered

The Irish are the descendants of the ancient Celtic nation, but the Irish who have a large number of fertile wilds have not been able to develop an independent and unified nation-state.

For national independence, the Irish also fought for hundreds of years, especially after the Great Famine broke out in the mid-nineteenth century, when the Irish population dropped from 8 million to less than 4 million, they completely separated from the London government.

After the outbreak of the First World War, the Irish independence movement once soared, but was finally extinguished, and the British made concessions.

Limited national autonomy obviously cannot meet the needs of the Irish. In order to achieve complete national independence, they soon became involved with the Bulgarians.

"Mr. Sim, why are you here, how is your hometown?" the intelligence officer Ruisi asked in surprise

Sim didn't answer directly, instead he asked: "Rhise, how are the Irish preparing?"

"The Irish have a strong desire for independence. They are willing to help us land on the island of Ireland, but this requires the endorsement of the Holy Alliance. They require us to publicly declare Ireland's independence and ensure that their independence and sovereignty are not infringed!" Rui thought and said.

"You can promise them, the country is not interested in the island of Ireland, we originally intended to make Ireland independent!" Sim said with a slight smile

Compared with the Irish independence enthusiasm, he is more worried about the strength of the Irish and whether he can help the army in the landing operations.

"Mr. Sim, the Irish Independence Organization lacks weapons, ammunition, and food. This problem has to be solved by us!" Reith frowned and said

Sim thought for a while and said, "Well, the issue of weapons and ammunition is not too difficult. We can ask the Air Force for help and ask them to empty a batch of weapons and ammunition.

The food issue is a bit troublesome. If the gap is too big, we must wait until our army has landed before it can be satisfied! "

"By the way, how did the Scots react? Is there any possibility of winning over?"

Ruisi said embarrassingly: "Mr. Sim is sorry. In the British Isles, apart from Ireland, we have not opened up the situation in other regions. The Scottish independence movement organization only has two or three kittens and puppies, which can be ignored!"

In the process of national assimilation, England and Scotland have completed the integration. Everyone has become a member of the remembering interests, and naturally there is no revolutionary enthusiasm.

"Forget it, we will launch landing operations in two months. We will wait for notification of the specific time and location. I will contact the headquarters and give them an empty batch of weapons and ammunition!" Sim thought for a while and said.

……

On January 1, 1941, Bulgaria issued the "Declaration of National Independence", publicly proclaiming that any nation aspiring to establish a country independently should be granted national independence after it is determined that it has the legal right to build a nation!

This declaration started the wave of national independence after the World War. Less than a week after the declaration was issued, Sofia received dozens of applications for independence.

Of course, Ireland is indispensable, including Scotland, Wales and other regions have obtained the right to establish an independent state. It is worth mentioning that the three British North American countries have also been independent.

If it weren’t for fear of shaking the allies’ desire to fight, the region with an independent nation would continue to expand.

After the occupation of the Dominion of South Africa and Egypt, the African continent has been divided into two parts by the two countries. Apart from the Portuguese part of Mozambique, the southern African continent has become a part of Bulgaria.

The expansion on the African continent has been completed, the most elite areas have been eaten, Bulgaria has been full, and the rest are dispensable.

On January 1, 1941, the Holy League Army Expeditionary Force was established, including: Bulgaria sent 500,000 troops, Austro-Hungarian Empire sent 300,000 troops, the French Republic sent 350,000 troops, West Russia sent 260,000 troops, Belarus sent 30,000 troops, and Finland sent 15,000 troops. ...

The two million expeditionary army was formed in this way. The Bulgarian Army General Augustus served as the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces, and his troops were directed at the British Isles.

Don't look at the expeditionary force only now being established. In fact, preparations were started a few months ago. The troops promised by all countries have been assembled before they made public the news.

The current situation is different from a few months ago. All countries on the European continent except Germany have joined the Holy League and their influence has been very different.

Although it is primitive, it is also very effective. Under the threat of being a friend or an enemy, even if it is inclined to the British, at this time everyone chose to stand on the side of the winner.

Fu Wushuang will never come alone to misfortune!

After the formation of the expeditionary force, changes have taken place within Germany, and the shadow of failure has been hanging over Germany.

Except for the German troops who fought out at the beginning of the war and robbed a batch of supplies, only the British gave aid.

These are all consumables. The war has been carried out until now, it has been exhausted long ago, and the Germans can only rely on themselves now.

It’s better to say that the industrial raw materials are insufficient, even if they want to produce, they can’t do it?

Even if they are defending on the mainland, their weapons and ammunition production speed still cannot keep up with the consumption speed on the battlefield. This is a tragedy.

Insufficient weapons and ammunition and inadequate strategic materials have severely restricted the combat effectiveness of the German army. On many fronts, the German army is constantly retreating, using long trenches to delay the enemy's offensive.

Only the top German army knows that the most critical moment is coming. Germany is not a major food producer. In peace times, it has to import food, let alone war.

Germany’s material supply system has been suppressed to its lowest point. If it continues to decline, it will not even be able to meet the most basic living conditions of the people.

Don’t think about meat. You may not be able to see it every week. Butter, cheese, candy, tobacco and alcohol, tea, and coffee have long been withdrawn from the supply list.

Five hundred grams of bread per person per day. Use potatoes to make up the rest. In the countryside, you must dig some wild vegetables to survive. Their material supply standards are lower.

Continual failures on the battlefield and shortage of supplies in life. Under this background, people’s war exhaustion is gradually rising, and the upper-level rulers are also anxious to find a way out.

On January 2, 1941, the German government sent a truce negotiation delegation to the Holy League, and representatives of various countries gathered in Sofia to start negotiations.

"The existence of Germany has seriously threatened the peace and security of the European continent. It must be divided, and all the war losses of all countries must be paid!" French Foreign Minister Corrion said indignantly

The proposal of the French was supported by Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Poland. As the biggest victims of this war, they felt painful.

Coleman, who presided over the meeting, frowned, but he did not directly object, but said slowly:

"Mr. Corleone first calm down. It is not difficult for the Germans to split, and it is not difficult for the Germans to pay compensation, but it is difficult for the Germans to pay compensation while splitting!"

Whether to ask for money or split Germany, this is a multiple choice question. Once Germany is divided, a group of newly independent small countries will have no solvency.

No, even the German government is still unable to pay its debts. The debts of World War I have not been paid off. Now there is another sum. What are they going to pay?

Now the French have a long history of food and wisdom, and no longer dare to play the trick of raising tigers. Even if German labor is free, they dare not help Germans retain industrial production capacity.

"Mr. Coleman, many things in this world are not measurable by money. For world peace, the French Republic is willing to give up a part of the compensation!" Corleone answered without hesitation

If you have no money, you can make more money. If you have to PK with the Germans every twenty years, then the French Republic will get pills sooner or later.

After the First World War, France's national power was weakened by four layers, and it was only recovered in 1929, at the expense of France falling behind from the world's top powers.

Although the current war is not as tragic as the First World War, France's overall national strength is still seriously affected, and France's international status will definitely continue to decline after the war.

According to the current strength of various countries, France, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Western Russia are all second-rate powers in Europe.

If Germany is not completely suppressed, if Bulgaria supports the Germans in the future, will they have a good life?

"Mr. Corleone, we all know your efforts for world peace, but everyone has paid such a high price and still needs compensation.

Germany has always been a unified country. It has never endangered world peace in the previous millennium, but it has frequently created wars in recent decades.

This is not a problem of unification, but more of an institutional problem. As long as Germany is restored to its political system a hundred years ago, all these problems will be solved! "

There is no doubt that Coleman is talking nonsense. The main purpose is to keep a certain strength in the center of Europe, but there is no unification of Germany.

"Mr. Coleman, this does not guarantee the security of the European continent. As long as Germany is not completely divided, they may threaten world peace again in the future!" Corleone frowned and said

"We can abolish the army of the defeated country and prohibit them from producing any weapons, including pistols, must be imported from abroad, I think this way, everyone can rest assured!" Coleman smiled and said

The French are dissatisfied. He doesn't know, but other European countries are very interested. A Germany that does not develop a military is not threatening.

And they can also use their military expenditures to pay war indemnities, and everyone can divide a sum to make up for the loss.

……

After a preliminary agreement was reached, on February 8, 1941, Germany and the Holy League signed an armistice treaty. The Germans lay down their weapons and surrendered, and the war on the European continent ended.

This time the Germans reacted quickly They did not die until the end, and the British were at the bottom. In order to carve up the British colony, they were let go.

Only the German central government was betrayed. From now on, they have become rubber stamps. According to the medieval monarchy system, the central government was formed by the emperor's election candidates.

A central government formed by princes can count on others to support it?

Even the Federal Parliament no longer exists. If there is a conflict, they may separate at any time, and any kingdom has the strength to fight for independence.

Anyway, there is no army, and weapons and equipment cannot be produced. The central government cannot suppress the rebellion.

This is also the result of compromise. The French insisted on splitting Germany, and Western Russia and the Austro-Hungarian Empire also supported the French for their own interests.

In the end, each gave way. Germany continues to maintain its nominal unity, while the states have the freedom to establish their own states.

If a kingdom or a principality challenges the central government one day, don’t be surprised. This is normal operation. This is the basic right granted to them by the Sofia Treaty.

You can be independent today, and you can rejoin tomorrow. In short, this nominal Germany has become a coalition of German states, and states are free to come and go.
