Chapter 2156： The doomed talk

When Lloyd George appeared in the British delegation, Ruprecht felt very comfortable. In history, the Paris Peace Conference was also attended by the then British Prime Minister Lloyd George. In this meeting, he was also one of the creators of the "Versailles Peace Treaty". However, time has passed. On this plane, Lloyd George also attended the peace talks, but it is a pity that the status of Britain and Germany has been exchanged. At this moment , Germany is the judge, while the UK is the criminal waiting for approval.

Looking at Lloyd George, who was sitting across from him, looked upset and desperate, Ruprecht felt very comfortable! The British side is fairly formal. In addition to the Prime Minister, Lord Balfour and Lloyd George are considered the highest-level representatives, and the German side can also be considered. Ruprecht is the commander-in-chief of the German army on the western front. The admiral of the navy and the crown prince of Bavaria are even more gold-rich signatures. Next to him is the Grand Duke of Baden, who directly represents the Kaiser. As for the representatives from the parliament, they did not participate because this negotiation is doomed to fail, and the members of the parliament expressed that they were not interested in this negotiation.

"On behalf of the British Empire, I would like to negotiate with the German Empire to stop the war. This war has been going on for two years. Both countries have paid a huge price for it. Now, it is time to stop this war. In order to show the sincerity of the British Empire, we are willing to negotiate on the basis of the conditions proposed by you last time." Belfort was very upright. He knew that it would be unrealistic to continue to be an iron cock, so he chose the last time the Germans proposed. Based on the requirements.

"Sorry, the time has passed. The conditions last time are no longer suitable for the current situation. The dominant position of the German Empire has allowed us to offer higher conditions. Therefore, this time, we will use new Conditions are the basis." Ruprecht said.

"This is blackmail! The British Empire came for peace, not to sit opposite you as a defeated warrior!" said Lloyd George on the side.

"The British Expeditionary Forces have all been wiped out. Our submarines are hunting the transport ships heading to the United Kingdom on the oceans. The United Kingdom is already trapped internally and externally. What is this not the defeated? It seems that your position is very unclear, then this There is no need to continue the negotiations!" Grand Duke Baden confronted each other.

"But as an island country, the British Empire fleet is an insurmountable barrier for your country. Even if we lose on the land battlefield, we can still guarantee the security of our homeland, and your country's power is still limited to Europe and cannot be projected to other countries. Locally, this situation is very similar to when we faced the Napoleon Empire. Napoleon controlled Western Europe but was blocked by the world. Your country controlled Europe, but your merchant ships still could not leave the North Sea. The British Empire still controls the world sea. Right." Lord Balfour said.

"This is your opinion?" Ruprecht asked rhetorically.

"Of course. This is not only my opinion, but also a fact." Lord Balfour said.

"Well, it seems that there has been a huge deviation in our understanding of a certain issue. Pure language arguments will not have any satisfactory results. So, I think we can speak with facts? Expensive The party can choose to wait for the news in Brussels, or return to London first. I think, within two months at most, the facts will prove everything!” Ruprecht said calmly.

"I don't understand what you mean." Lord Balfour felt like falling into an ice cave after hearing the words of the crown prince, because he knew that the person on the other side was not a simple threat, he had to do what he said!

"Continue to fight. Hit until you accept our terms. The United Kingdom once described that Germany used to place a gun at the table during negotiations. Now, I want to say that you are right. People who are unclear about the situation cannot communicate in words and can only use force."

"I am not a person who is good at language, so if you are going to say something cruel or curse, then this meeting is not necessary to go on. I will only discuss what I want. For example, if the big fleet If you are defeated in a naval battle, or you can’t protect Britain, what price are you going to pay to stop the war?” Ruprecht’s calm words contained power that was enough to make the British people on the other tremble! These words undoubtedly show that the Germans are about to take action on the large fleet!

"It's impossible! The fleet is invincible!" Lloyd George said loudly.

"Let us speak with the facts. If you win, then you can naturally stick to your own views, and even look at Europe from the sea as you did during Napoleon’s time to serve your mobile hands. The initiative is in your hands, and you can even treat the Napoleonic empire. That way, Europe has been blocked for more than ten years But what if you lose? You may not consider this issue, but you can’t assume that this issue does not exist!"

"Same as this time, if we reach that point, our conditions will be more stringent. Well, we are now in a futures business. Do you choose to stop loss now or play to the end? Think about it, if the British Empire didn’t have this large fleet, what would it be like? An eagle with its claws and feathers removed? Or a tiger with its teeth out of age?"

"Although your country’s large fleet can’t frighten the German Empire now, it still has enough deterrence for other countries. Even if you lose, you will still be considered a first-class power, but what if you don’t have a large fleet? What would they think? What would the dominions think? Even, what would the enslaved colonies think? For example, India!"

"The industrial and national power of the German Empire is stronger than that of your country. This was the case before the war, and even more so after the war. What if the high seas fleet suffers losses? We can use a few years or more than a decade to reshape our fleet. At that time, we will have a stronger navy. But what about your country? With your country’s current situation, it’s impossible to rebuild the large fleet, right?”

"Of course, representatives of your country can clamor to spend the last pound in the treasury to maintain their advantage, but it doesn't matter, we just follow up! Maybe the next contest between the two countries will be won before the war begins, the German Empire Will bring down the opponent financially!" Ruprech said with a smile looking at the other side.
