Chapter 1966: negotiation?

But the crown prince Ruprecht from Bavaria is different. He seldom makes some radical remarks, and he will not promote some national thoughts in the country. However, he has a very clear mind and excellent methods. He knows who is the biggest enemy preventing the German Empire from dominating the whole of Europe, not France, nor Russia before, but Britain! Britain has almost undertaken more than 70% of the maritime combatants of the Allied Powers and the transportation of most of the overseas supplies! To provide France with materials, loans and millions of troops, Britain's economic power, powerful navy and rich colonies made Britain the biggest enemy of Germany!

　　 What’s more frightening is that Ruprecht is not as stern as the Kaiser. To use an inappropriate analogy, that is, biting a dog without barking, and calling a dog without biting! After identifying the enemy, Crown Prince Ruprecht will designate the plan and execute it step by step. He is not lacking in courage, means and wisdom. Even in the face of the Royal Navy, the existence that once made the whole world tremble, the crown prince is still not afraid and has frequently won.

　　 He used various means to weaken the British Empire. Until now, Germany has a considerable advantage. The British transport fleet, the world's largest fleet, was bitten by wolves, and the Royal Air Force, which was the leader in the sky, was completely suppressed almost overnight. The navy, the last fuse of the empire, is also continuously weakening. Lloyd George is really worried that if the situation is right, the crown prince will really take the high seas fleet to launch a desperate blow to the British fleet!

In fact, in Lloyd George’s opinion, when the German High Seas Fleet decided to fight a decisive battle with the British Grand Fleet, the United Kingdom had already lost, because even according to the Royal Navy’s most optimistic speculation, the Royal Navy could win this. What about this massive collision of millions of tons of steel? With the high quality of the German battleships and the quality of the German Navy, it is estimated that even if they win, the British fleet will be greatly injured. And don’t forget, Germany is a continental country, the navy is not the most important thing, and if the British lose the navy, what would the Americans think? What would even the Japanese think?

　　 Yes, you read that right, it's what the Japanese would think! You know, if the navy is severely damaged, with the economic strength of Britain now being hollowed out by the war, it will be too difficult to build a fleet that is the world's first and can form stable pressure on the second! It can be described as distant indefinitely. Now, allies of Britain and Japan, what about the end of the war? Things that will happen in the next ten or even twenty years are really unpredictable!

　　 So, in the view of Lloyd George, if the Germans really decide to use the High Seas Fleet and the British Grand Fleet to make a deadlock, then Lloyd George thinks that Britain might as well make appropriate concessions... At least, a relatively complete large fleet can still deter the two countries that have been hit hard by the war, the United States and Japan. Even if the British Empire loses some benefits, it can still guarantee a global colonial system!

　　 Judging from what the prince did before, Lloyd George can feel the deep malice of the other party! Ruprecht really wanted to make the British be overwhelmed this time! He wants to use the war to solve the problems of Western Europe once and for all! He wants to really hurt the British so that they dare not face the German Empire's soldiers again in the future! Looking at the constant attacks on the Royal Air Force now, Lloyd George can predict that in the future, the main direction of the German Army will also be the British! As for the French? There are Americans coordinating it, so it is very possible to avoid Germany's full blow!

　　 The elites of the east and west sides of Germany gathered together to strike a thunderous blow against the British army, which has only 1.6 million, and then has huge air superiority? Lloyd George, the Secretary of the Army, is ready to accept 600,000 British casualties. The British are also human, and excessive casualties will definitely shake the country's foundation! If the air force fails, the army is severely damaged, and then the High Seas Fleet recklessly fights with the Great Fleet, **** it, then the glory of Britain is gone!

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, judging from the current situation, our situation has not improved, on the contrary, it has deteriorated. The Luftwaffe and Army have gained a huge advantage, and they are not currently in chaos due to domestic unrest. Germany’s best commander-in-chief, Crown Prince Ruprecht, has arrived on the Western Front and has taken over the command of the Western Front. His offensive was very sharp, and he severely damaged the Royal Air Force in a very short time. It poses an important threat to the expeditionary army’s maritime supply line. We have no hope for this war. Even gaining an advantage on the battlefield and then a decent withdrawal from the war has become a bit out of reach. So, I think, in the Germans Before launching the offensive, we can consider ending this protracted battle.” Lloyd George said to Prime Minister Asquith carefully and carefully~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He also explained the current severe situation while taking care of the other side's face.

"Mr. Secretary of the Army, do you know what it means to negotiate a peace? Before the Germans launched an offensive, before we did not block the opponent's first round of offensive, we chose to submit. The Germans would not be like the Pau The war was treated like Austria-Hungary, because we are each other’s greatest enemy, we are the rulers of the old era, and Germany and the United States are the challengers of the new era. The change of power can only be accomplished through the most intense and **** battle. The winner will have no mercy for the loser!"

"The asking price of the Germans will be too high for us to accept! They may take into account the attitude and money of the Americans and will not enter the Far East, but our sphere of influence in Southern Africa and the Middle East will be lost, and our hegemony in the Mediterranean will be lost. The ashes will be wiped out! The empire will become a past tense when the sun never sets, and what’s more terrifying is that all countries in the world will see the weakness of the empire! Whether it is a friend or an enemy, they will share a piece of the empire when the empire is weak! It's like a group of hyenas attacking an aging lion. There is nothing left of us torn away! So, I always think that there is no difference between peace talks and surrender at this time!" Asquith's attitude is still firm!

　　Any negotiation is actually the same. Whoever proposes it first represents a weakness. And if the situation on the battlefield is not conducive to Britain, then being at the negotiating table means a double disadvantage. Let alone the outcome, this situation alone is unprecedented for the proud British Empire in hundreds of years. shame!
