The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2056: Compromise one

(Page 1/1)

"Now, as the representative of the French government, I am asking to meet with Crown Prince Ruprecht immediately, as soon as possible. Time is tight. This is true for the French Republic and the same for your country." I really thought it was easy to recognize counsel. Thing? What do you think? Now that the two sides have fought, how to pull the troops apart is a problem, and how to operate after compromise, okay, to be precise, how to make the French cooperate with the Germans to shame the British. These have many things to do. However, how to deal with France after the war is also a problem. These need to be dealt with from now on, so Clemenceau is really very anxious. So, after sending a telegram to the German Western Front Command through a special channel, he came to the German Embassy in the Netherlands.

"We have prepared everything for the special envoy. You and your entourage can bring the necessary equipment to board a transport plane we prepared for you. You can go to the meeting place within two hours, and then tonight Meet with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." said the German Ambassador to the Netherlands.

   After driving to an airport outside Amsterdam, I did find a specially modified K8 bomber parked there, and next to it were 8 J6 fighters that provided cover. Now the weather has darkened, but after the Germans repeatedly assured that there would be no accident, Clemenceau and his entourage decisively boarded the transport plane to the German front.

To tell the truth, the first person to fly a plane into the sky is a hero, but the same, the first passenger to fly is also a hero. Think about it, in an unsealed, no pressurized cabin, and no warming facilities. Flying several kilometers in the air, this kind of feeling is absolutely very uncomfortable, of course, more importantly, the early planes were very unreliable, and it was normal for something to happen. And now Clemenceau and his entourage are sitting on this plane, enduring the freezing air at high altitude, but fortunately, the coats and hot water bottles specially prepared for them by the Germans are also more comfortable.

The speed of the Germans is still very fast. This huge bomber loaded with more than 20 French delegation personnel arrived at an airport on the Western Front. After getting off the plane and boarding the waiting car, it finally arrived after an hour of turbulence. After more than an hour of rest at the German Western Front Command, Clemenceau raised his spirits and walked into the conference room.

Something different from the situation at the first meeting is that this time apart from Crown Prince Ruprecht, there are two people that he did not think of. One is the Grand Duke of Baden. His appearance represents the attitude of the Kaiser. After all, everyone knows that the Grand Duke of Baden is the person most trusted by the Kaiser. The other person is Albrecht, Grand Duke of Württemberg. This person is not only a commander of the group army, but more importantly, represents the Grand Duchy of Württemberg! Judging from the current posture, the three people in front of you can really determine the attitude of Germany!

As for why the Grand Duke of Baden came here, it was actually the result of Ruprecht’s advance notice. After all, in the eyes of the crown prince, the French will definitely succumb, and if you negotiate with France, it will definitely not be good for Bavaria to come forward. On the one hand, it is informal, and on the other hand, it gives the impression that Bavaria represents the whole of Germany. This impression is not good! Therefore, at the request of the crown prince, the Grand Duke of Baden came to the Western Front on behalf of the Kaiser. Of course, the main role of the Grand Duke of Baden was the station. At the same time, to inform William II of the meeting information, it is naturally Crown Prince Ruprecht who is leading the negotiation!

   "It seems that we have reached a consensus on some issues. There is no way out for confrontation, and cooperation is a good choice for Germany and France." Crown Prince Ruprecht said with a smile.

"Before we discuss the formal issues, can we talk about how to dispel our current state of hostility? We can act according to your country's requirements, but for the face of the French Republic, I hope you can cooperate." Cremon Shuo said.

   "And then?" Ruprecht said noncommittal.

"Neither side should make any declarations or announcements to end the hostilities, but the front line must stop confrontation, and your country’s troops deep in the back of our army should not continue to advance. We guarantee that the French army will remain silent on the existing line of defense, and then the rest , Leave it to your country to handle." Cremonceau said.

   "Then your country promises us to give up the passage at the junction of the British and French armies?" Xiao Maoqi asked.

"It will be completed soon. We have already mobilized some troops to go south, and most of the personnel have been withdrawn. As for the remaining weapons, you can figure it out. Anyway, France probably won't need them." Clemenceau was frustrated. Said.

   "Then what about the railway and the destroyed transportation hub we ask you to cut off?" Little Moqi continued.

   "We will ruin it." Clemenceau said with a sigh.

"This is the map of important stations and bridges that we asked you to destroy. They should all be under your control now. We don't want to see them when we launch an offensive." Xiao Maoqi handed it over. In a document, Clemenceau opened the document and saw the name of a long-running bridge and station, and each site was marked with the destroyed buildings and precautions.

   "Too many, we can't complete it at all~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Clemenceau closed the document and said.

"Your Excellency, your actions have determined the survival of France after the war. The mercy of the empire is not without a price. Our mercy cannot be used. If France is willing to be friendly with the empire, then we cannot accept the post-war Britain and France. There is still such a thing as the possibility of cooperation." Grand Duke Baden said.

"The French Republic will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history because of this incident, and we are willing to compromise, but it does not mean shameless! France is proud, even if we are defeated, we still have sunshine in our hearts, with a sharp blade in our hands!" Clemenceau Gritted his teeth and said. From his trembling body, the German is very clear that he is undergoing a fierce ideological struggle, no matter what, it is very troublesome to let the French directly stabbing the knife. Big countries want face. Remove the so-called political reasons, the face and credibility of a country is also the most important aspect that affects its decision-making!

   Looking at Grand Duke Baden who wanted to talk again, Ruprecht made a quiet gesture. Now comes the critical moment, a node that needs to be handled by him personally! The opponent is still entangled. At this time, it is like facing a beast that has fallen into a trap and is struggling to death. If you are not careful, you may be counterattacked by the opponent. Although for the current French, they can't play any tricks, but to be honest, Ruprecht didn't want to fight the French again in a certain future war. It's not a problem that can't be beaten, it's a problem that can't be committed!
