The Third Reich

Chapter 130 The Agreement Was Originally Used to Tear It Up

"According to the Treaty of Versailles, the total tonnage of all German warships should not exceed 100,000 tons." Samuel spoke first: "And now, the Zeppelin-class aircraft carrier you built has a displacement of more than 30,000 tons. The battleship that is under construction must have a displacement of more than 30,000 tons. Moreover, you do not intend to build only one such aircraft carrier and battleship. There are follow-up construction plans. I hope you can give a reasonable answer. "

Samuel is aggressive, and he is here to ask the teacher for guilt. In this case, it is not easy for Hitler to come forward. After all, if the talk below breaks down, the above can change his tune. If the above talks directly, there is no room for manoeuvre. .

Goering didn't attend either, and now the other party is talking about the Navy, not the Air Force.

Those present were military figures headed by Defense Minister Blomberg. They were all straight-line soldiers. It was obviously inappropriate to participate in such a meeting.

For example, now, facing the pressure of the British, they feel a sense of loss. Yes, according to the treaty at the time, Germany violated it.

"That's because the original Treaty of Versailles was not legal at all." In the cold session, Cyric finally arrived in a hurry and said to the British opposite: "The Treaty of Versailles, let us Germany have a country without defense. , it was an unequal treaty signed by the weak Weimar government, and now, our new government will never recognize such a humiliating treaty."

Cyric sat down next to Blomburg, looking at the guys with the lumps of wood here, he was actually speechless when asked! How stupid!

What are you afraid of? Afraid of getting stuck? It's deadlocked, what can the UK do? Can we send troops to suppress Germany? Do not make jokes.

At times like this, you have to show a righteous look!

"The United States did not sign the Treaty of Versailles, why? Because the Americans know very well that this treaty is fundamentally unfair to us Germany! You can ask yourself, for a country like us with a long coastline, Only ships of 100,000 tons, do you think it is appropriate?"

Hearing Cyric's words, Samuel's face changed with another expression: "Your opinion is also justified. However, if Germany continues to develop like this, it will continue to strengthen the German navy. Strength, we are very worried that Germany will go back to the old path of the First World War and provoke war again."

Immediately, Blomburg felt a chill in his heart. After a long period of trouble, the aggressive questioning from the other party was actually just an opening statement!

In the relationship between people, people's hearts are the most important! If you can know the purpose of the other party, you can deal with it calmly!

Samuel didn't come here to protest at all. If he protested, he didn't need to come. It was enough to make a statement in London.

He came here, of course, to find a solution!

A weak Germany is not in the interest of Britain, because it will make France stronger, but a strong Germany has to worry about provoking new wars at any time!

That's it!

With such a complicated mood, Samuel came to Germany, hoping to find a solution to the current problem. In fact, it is to balance the forces!

"We now just want to have better strength to protect our maritime security." Cyric said: "We have never had any ideas, such as wanting to start a war again, we are developing peacefully, and we are deeply Knowing the importance of peace, we don't want to see a renewed war in Europe."

This sentence makes Samuel very satisfied. Germany's statement is very good. He is also a peace-loving person who makes Europe full of love! There is nothing bad to sit down and talk about, just be sincere!

"We just need to have enough self-defense capabilities," Cyric said. "What do you think? We can sign a new treaty on the naval armament of the two countries."

"The gross tonnage of the German Navy ships does not exceed 35 percent of the total tonnage of the Commonwealth navies as stipulated in the Washington Naval Treaty and the London Naval Treaty. With regard to submarines, we guarantee that the tonnage of the submarines we retain does not exceed the tonnage of the Commonwealth navies. Forty-five percent of the submarine's gross tonnage."

After Cyric said these words, the expression of the German general here changed, Cyric, what is this for? This is simply betrayal!

Restrict your own navy to less than 50% of the combat effectiveness of the British navy? What a joke! The ultimate development of the German navy is to have a strength that absolutely exceeds that of the British navy and to be able to compete with the United States in the ocean.

Only this tonnage, what to do?

Dönitz, who attended as a representative of the navy, was also displeased, and there were too few submarines, right? If you want to deal a heavy blow to Britain and the United States, Germany must vigorously develop the submarine force!

Seeing the expression of the German on the other side, Samuel decided to act decisively.

"Okay, Mr. Cyric, we agree with your proposal. Then we will draft the content of the agreement in the past few days and then sign it. What do you think?"

This kind of agreement is not something that can be passed by a few people sitting down and talking simply.

The United Kingdom needs to report to London and obtain the consent of London, while the German side has to let Hitler pass. Now, it's just a general policy!

When the British left, the pot was fried in an instant.

"Cyric, how can you come up with such an agreement? We can't build just a few ships!" Dönitz said.

"I didn't plan to build it either." The expression on Cyric's face was innocent.

"Then why did you make such a promise with the British? This will tie up our navy!"

"So what? The agreement was originally meant to be torn up." Cyric said directly: "We signed the Treaty of Versailles, have we abided by it?"

"Now, we sign this treaty, which has a new meaning, that is, Britain, a victorious country in World War I, has tacitly accepted the invalidity of the Treaty of Versailles! In this way, no matter how France protests, it is useless, our rearmament , is absolutely legal!"

Cyric said: "Now, no matter how we build it, it will take a few years to reach this tonnage limit. At that time, we can declare this agreement invalid and continue to build our warships, the British, what can we do at that time? Like? French, what can we do?"
