Chapter 405: Armistice conditions (seeking monthly ticket)

   "Hahaha! Have the proud British finally decided to lower their noble heads?" William II's face was full of smiles, and his complexion was also very good, flushed.

  It is undoubtedly a matter of pride for William II to be able to make the former British Empire compromise and seek peace. After all, he has always set his goal of pulling Britain down from the throne of the world's hegemony. Originally, he thought that this goal might never be realized. However, it now appears that the realization of this goal is simply too simple. The British are so strong outsiders!

  The other top executives in Germany also had smiles on their faces. Being able to push Britain to this extent is undoubtedly a great victory for them. You know, that's the British Empire! The former world overlord! They have the largest and most numerous colonies in the world. Their fleets are cruising in the oceans all over the world, shocking the whole world.

  However, the war has only started for half a year, and the British are about to be overthrown by them. This result surprised and delighted the top German officials.

  Qin Tian was also in a good mood. The British took the initiative to ask for peace, which undoubtedly showed that they were about to fail. For Germany, this is undoubtedly a good thing. Of course, Qin Tian did not advocate peace talks with the British. After all, no matter how much you negotiate, the benefits you will get are extremely limited before you really defeat Britain. Only when the German Navy defeated the British Navy, the German Army landed on the British mainland. At that time, the British will be really afraid, and will be slaughtered by Germany like a weak sheep.

  Although Britain and Germany are at war, the ambassadors of both sides have already returned home, and the diplomatic channel of direct communication has been interrupted. However, this does not mean that the two countries cannot be contacted.

  Win and the two countries have their own embassies in other neutral countries, and they can completely send messages through these embassies, so as to ensure that the negotiations between the two parties can continue.

   This time, the British government communicated with Germany through the embassy in Switzerland. The British expressed their willingness to end the war, and claimed that if Germany was willing to cease the war, Britain could pay enough and so on.

   It was precisely because of this move by the British that William II was very satisfied. After all, apart from Germany, there is probably no other country that can make the British Empire so humble.

   "Everyone, should we accept the British proposal?" William II asked.

"Your Majesty, the British should be very sincere this time. No, if we want to fully realize our intended goal, I am afraid we still need to defeat the British to get what we want. Otherwise, the British People will never agree to our terms," ​​said Foreign Minister von Kiedren Waschter.

"Yes, Your Majesty. At this juncture, the British must have no chance of winning the future war, so they asked us for peace. Otherwise, with the British way of doing things, it would be impossible to ask for peace. Rather than negotiating with the British, it is better to completely defeat the British through war. Only in this way can we get more and slaughter the British wantonly." Imperial Prime Minister Bernhard von Bülow also said.

  The government is obviously not willing to negotiate peace with the British at this time. As for the military, even if William II didn't ask, he knew that they wanted to continue the war. Those guys are all war madmen, wishing that the war would last as long as possible.

  King William II looked at Qin Tian, ​​wanting to ask his opinion.

   "Oscar, what do you think?" William II asked.

"Father, my opinion is the same as that of the ministers. The reason why the British asked us for peace was completely out of necessity. They also knew that if the war continued, they might have no chance of winning. In order to avoid After losing a complete defeat and being slaughtered by us, they planned to ask us for peace. In the hope that in this way, they can pay less losses. However, such words are obviously not in our interests. Our goal is to want In this war, Britain will be completely defeated. Not only must we **** the status of world hegemony from the British. At the same time, we also need to eliminate the threat to us from the British. Therefore, we must do our best Slaughtering the British. In the negotiation, it is obviously impossible to obtain those benefits. Therefore, I think the war still needs to continue and strive to completely defeat the British." Qin Tian said.

  William II nodded: "So, are we going to reject the British this time?"

   "Father, that's not necessary. However, we can put forward some conditions that the British cannot accept. At that time, they will naturally retreat in spite of the difficulties." Qin Tian said with a smile.

   "Well, you will be responsible for this matter." William II said.

  As Qin Tian grows older, although Qin Tian is still very young. However, it has become more and more mature and sophisticated in dealing with national affairs and international relations. In this regard, William II also completely trusted Qin Tian, ​​and was willing to let Qin Tian display his talent.

   "Yes, Father!" Qin Tian accepted the task without hesitation.

   After the meeting, Qin Tian discussed with Foreign Minister von Kidren Wachter and listed several conditions that the British could not accept. These conditions not only include land cession and indemnity, but also limit Britain's military power. Unless the minds of the British are caught by the door, otherwise, they will never accept such conditions.

   In terms of land cession, Qin Tian demanded that Britain hand over all its colonies to Germany. In addition, the independence of Ireland is allowed, and the independence movement of the island of Ireland has always been supported by Germany.

   In terms of compensation, Qin Tian directly opened his mouth, asking Britain to compensate Germany for the loss of 50 billion marks. If converted into pounds, this huge sum is already equivalent to 2 billion pounds. Britain, which suffered heavy losses during the war, simply could not afford so much money, and it was impossible to spend so much money for compensation.

  Finally, Qin Tian also asked for restrictions on Britain's military power. Britain was no longer allowed to build warships with a displacement greater than 10,000 tons, and it was forbidden to own submarines and aircraft. The existing warships with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons, as well as the warships under construction, must be transferred to Germany. Only then will Germany grant peace to England.
