Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

As Italy and the Hans Empire signed a trade agreement, this made the Gallic Empire look a little jealous.

So, in September 1924, the Gallic Empire sent a mission to Berlin secretly and signed a cooperation treaty with the Hans Empire.

However, the Gallic Empire still had some concerns, so this treaty was only a treaty for trade between the two countries.

But both Adolf and the Gallic President Alexander Millerand knew that this was the basis of their alliance.

In reality, alliances between countries cannot be successful with just a few words. There are so many interests involved. Therefore, neither country is in a hurry for this kind of thing.

Determine your intention first and then talk slowly.

At this time, Adolf was actually very trustworthy.

After he signed a trade treaty with the Gallic Empire, he began to return the sovereignty of Alsace and Lorraine to the Gallic Empire.

Although Adolf's move caused his prestige in the Hans Empire to decline slightly. But Millerand is not the kind of dumb guy who doesn't understand anything.

He knew that since the two countries needed to sign a military alliance, the prime ministers must trust each other and show sincerity.

Now the Hans Empire has shown its sincerity and ceded the sovereignty of Alsace and Lorraine to itself. Then it is time for the Gallic Empire to release its sincerity.

Therefore, at Millerand's insistence, the Gallic Empire provided a batch of loans worth 50 million francs to the Hans Empire in the form of interest-free loans.

After receiving this loan, the Hans Empire directly invested in national infrastructure construction.

Adolf is very clear that what he needs to do now is to reduce the unemployment rate as soon as possible and provide more job opportunities for domestic workers.

Millerand not only provided loans to the Hans Empire, he also followed the previous discussions between the two ambassadors and continued to open the Alsace and Lorraine regions to the Hans Empire.

This is equivalent to the fact that the two places were only nominally assigned to the Gallic Empire, but it did not actually affect the factories of the Hans Empire in the area.

It can be said that from the moment the two sides signed the trade treaty, the relationship between Gaul and the Hans Empire entered the honeymoon period.

Subsequently, under the guidance of Adolf, the Gallic Empire and the Kingdom of Italy also came to the negotiating table.

Although Lao Mo looked down on the Gallic Empire and felt that the Gallic Empire was no longer as brave and powerful as it was during the Napoleonic period, he also recognized that he had an extra helper on his side.

As a result, another trade treaty was signed between the Gallic Empire and the Kingdom of Italy in Marseille, a city in the southern part of the Gallic Empire.

When things got to this point, the John Empire and the Republic of Rhineland also noticed something was wrong.

Two sworn enemies during World War I have now come together, which makes Rhineland, which is sandwiched between the two countries, feel uncomfortable.

What's more, these two countries are still his protectorates.

According to the agreement after World War I, the Rhineland established an army, so the national security of the Rhineland was responsible for the Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire.

In order to ensure their own security, those consortiums came up with ways to control the economies of the two countries.

This is why the Rhineland has been oppressing and plundering the resources of both countries since its establishment. The purpose is to control these two thugs through economic means.

But unexpectedly, it had the opposite effect. The oppression was too harsh, which directly made the two countries murderous towards the Rhineland.

Logically speaking, now that we know that the two countries have murderous intentions towards us, we should be more honest, release goodwill, ease relations between the two parties, and avoid war.

But I don’t know what the controllers of the Rhineland Republic think. Perhaps just like what European countries say about them, God only gave them the brains for business and nothing else.

Faced with the murderous intentions of the two countries, the consortium's idea was to find another backer, and then use stronger economic retaliation to oppress the two countries and make them surrender.

As a result, the Rhineland Republic approached the John Empire and the Millican Empire. After signing a protection treaty with the two countries, the Rhineland took stronger retaliatory measures against the Gallic Empire and the Hans Empire.

First, let’s talk about this newly signed protection treaty.

This newly signed protection treaty is a unilateral treaty. The Rhineland Republic invests in both countries in exchange for the two countries' guarantees on the security of the Rhineland Republic.

The content is very simple. The treaty stipulates that the Rhineland needs to invest at least 30 million in each of the two countries every year in exchange for the two countries' guarantee of the independence of the Rhineland Republic.

If a third country wants to declare war on the Rhineland Republic, then the Millennium and John Empire must declare war on each other as soon as possible and send troops to protect the security of the Rhineland.

It can be said that this treaty actually bound the Republic of Rhineland and the Empire of John to America.

And the people in the John Empire and Milician were not stupid either. It was obvious that this was actually a trap.

But the problem is that most of their domestic factories are controlled by consortiums from the Rhineland Republic, and most of their campaign funds come from these consortiums.

Therefore, even if John Empire and Milician knew that this was a trap, they could only jump into it.

An additional mention here is that America has a presidential electoral system, and although the John Empire is currently headed by George V, Prime Minister Andrew Bonar Law took over from David Lloyd George through election. John's position as Prime Minister of the Empire.

Andrew was able to serve as Prime Minister of John's Empire because the consortium discovered that David Lloyd George wanted to escape their control.

Prime Minister George is a prime minister who puts the interests of the John Empire first. Everything he does puts the interests of the John Empire first.

If the interests of John's empire conflict with the interests of the consortium, he will abandon the consortium without hesitation.

This is not allowed for the consortium that is in desperate need of an obedient thug.

Therefore, they chose to support the more obedient Andrew during the general election.

Andrew also came to power in 1922 and served as Prime Minister of the John Empire. The first thing he did when he came to power was to sign a protection treaty with the Rhineland Republic.

Someone here may ask, doesn’t George V know all this?

Of course George V knew, but what could he do if he knew? He also had no way to refuse.

Because Andrew ran for Prime Minister John's Empire through normal means. Andrew represents the House of Lords and the Lower House, and the restrictions imposed by the Upper and Lower Houses on the King are very huge.

Even, the upper and lower houses have the power to remove the king. Therefore, George V had no way to reject Andrew, who was elected through normal means.

Therefore, since Andrew campaigned to become the new prime minister of the John Empire, the John Empire has inevitably been tied to the Rhineland Republic consortium.

The situation in America is similar. President Warren Gamelier Harding also ran for the presidency of America through normal means.

Therefore, Milician inevitably became a servant of the Rhineland.
