"We were sold by Britain and France!" In Prague, Benes' hand slammed heavily on the table, and the maroon solid wood table was smashed into a deep crack.
Betrayed!
Without the participation of Czech representatives, the four countries of Britain, France, Italy and Germany conducted a negotiation in Munich, and the result of the negotiation was the Munich agreement in the hands of Benes.
Czechoslovakia ceded the Sudetenland to Germany. The German army completed the occupation of the above-mentioned areas and other areas with German majority population from January 1 to 10, 1938. Any equipment in these areas must be handed over to Germany in good condition;
For other regions of the Czech Republic where it is not yet certain whether the Germans constitute the majority of residents, an international committee composed of representatives of Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and the Czech Republic shall be temporarily occupied. A referendum shall be held before the end of February 38 to determine their ownership, and Delimit the final boundary;
Britain and France guarantee that the new Czech border will not be invaded.
Under this agreement, the entire Sudetenland has become German territory, and the other territories in the Czech Republic, where Germans occupy the majority, will eventually be divided into Germany!
Hitler asked for more than before!
"No, this agreement, I decided not to sign it!" Benes continued to growl in his office: "This is a serious betrayal of our Czech sovereignty!"
"Mr. President, there is no place for you to sign this document." The assistant whispered.
This agreement is about discussing issues in the Czech Republic, but the Czech Republic, as a party, does not even have a place to sign! For the sake of peace, Britain and France betrayed them, and they didn't care about their feelings at all!
"Ting bell." Just then, the phone on the table rang.
The deputy answered the phone, and then the expression on his face changed: "President, it is from Moscow. Stalin wants to talk to you."
Stalin? Benes answered the phone, and the voice inside was converted through an interpreter.
"We the Soviet expresses a very understanding of the situation in the Czech Republic. May I ask, do you need to help? Perhaps we can help the Czech Republic." On the phone, Stalin's voice was calm.
"Sorry, not needed yet." Benes said.
Britain and France, after all, are Western countries, they can betray the Czech Republic without hesitation, and how can the Soviet Union help the Czech Republic with good intentions! Benes doubted Stalin's integrity.
Therefore, he refused, and at the same time, he also knew that he had nowhere to go.
One is happy and the other is excellent.
Just when Benes was extremely angry, Chamberlain took a special plane and returned to London.
At the airport, many people were welcoming him, crowded with people.
The British are afraid of war. The First World War cost them an entire generation of young people. People nowadays, when they mention the First World War, they feel the utter coldness. Now, Europe is about to fight and they are all concerned.
"I brought peace for an entire generation!" Chamberlain was very excited, waving the agreement in his hand.
Below, many people cheered. The signing of the Munich Agreement made the war in Europe extinguished once again when it was about to ignite. Chamberlain, really their hero!
All people and things must be put into the entire era in order to have an objective and fair evaluation. In history, Chamberlain was famous for appeasement, which made Chamberlain be infamous in later generations, but now Chamberlain is subject to the British Of welcome.
Now, the mood in the whole of Britain is afraid of war. The guys who preach war talk are criticized by everyone. For example, Churchill has a hard time.
Chamberlain's appeasement is because everyone does not want to fight, and the British are afraid of death again, so it is normal to sacrifice a little Czech.
Except for the Czechs, all Europeans are very happy. Isn't that great?
Dresden.
"It seems that we don't need to prepare for war." Guderian said: "Our armored soldiers are holding back their strength. As a result, just like in Austria, they are not bloody."
"That's better." Cyric said: "War is cruel and can be resolved peacefully. Peaceful means is the best. Chamberlain is really a great man."
This sentence was obviously antonymous, and everyone present laughed.
After laughing, Bock said: "General Cyric, you should know that Benes is a tough figure. Will he refuse to implement this agreement?"
The Munich agreement was signed, but the Czechs did not sign it. What if they deny it?
The army that is preparing to attack the Czech Republic is the same as the last time it invaded Austria. The main forces are Cyric’s Waffen SS and Bok’s Third Army. After all, Dresden was originally the military headquarters of the Third Army. This is their original defense zone.
After the last time, the relationship between Cyric and Bock has become very harmonious. This time when making plans, Bock took the initiative to assume his responsibilities and asked his two infantry divisions to prepare to go around. Go to the rear of the enemy and help the armored division to open the valley passage.
Although the agreement is signed, will the Czechs comply?
"General Bock, have you ever seen a dog eat bones?" Cyric asked suddenly.
Bok nodded, but what does it have to do with the current topic?
"So, that bone, did you protest?"
Cyric’s metaphor is very vivid. Now Germany is the fierce dog, while the Czech Republic is just a bone. Since they were thrown out by their owner, how could they care about the feeling of this bone?
Czech Except accepting, there is no second choice!
Without Britain and France, it would be impossible for the Czech Republic to occupy the Sudetenland. Now, since Britain and France have allowed the Czech Republic to abandon these areas, any Czech struggle will be futile.
If the Czech Republic is unwilling to accept it, it is openly fighting against Britain and France. Britain and France will watch Germany do it without protesting. On the contrary, people all over Europe will accuse the Czech Republic and the Munich Agreement has been signed. Why not? accept? The fact that Europe fell into a state of war was caused by the Czechs!
Who cares how the Czech Republic feels?
Bok smiled knowingly: "Yes, it's just a bone."
"We waited until the 1st, we swayed over, we want to see, the Czech Republic dare not attack us!" Cyric said.
Now, there are only two days left!
The time left for Benes was only two days. As the president of the Czech Republic, Benes has tried his best, but unfortunately, he is unable to recover.
