Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

Chapter 76 Rhineland 3



On the other hand, although Germany made mistakes due to "Kaiser Wilhelm's stupidity" and his expansion ambitions, it is Britain's natural brother. The British believed that it was the Latins in France who wanted to realize France's revenge, regain the territory France lost in the 1870 German-French War, dominate the European continent, and "use the selfishness, cunning and immoral qualities of the Latins" to drag Britain into In the war with his own brothers, he served the national interests of France.

France hoped to dismember Germany after World War I so that Germany would lose any chance of revival, but Britain opposed any dismemberment of Germany or even any measures to severely punish Germany.

The British were unwilling to believe that there would be any war between Britain and Germany after World War I, and therefore opposed France's aggressive behavior on the European continent. In the eyes of the British, the Germans were the most dynamic race, while the Latins and Slavs were the troublemakers.

"As Crown Prince Yannick said himself, he is very self-aware and knows what the price of starting another war will be. So I am not worried about Germany, I am more worried about the damn Red Empire. I don't know whether William II is I am not an old fool, but I actually sold the design of super tanks and super battleships to the Soviet Union." Prime Minister McDonald felt a chill running down his spine when he thought of the data on the super weapons that Crown Prince Yannick mentioned to him.

Relying on sea power and relying on centuries of management, Britain has just built an empire that spans the world and "the sun never sets". The "super battleship" mentioned by Yanik will obviously threaten the British Empire's maritime supremacy.

The Deputy Prime Minister expressed his doubts. "Can such a huge warship be built with the industrial level of the Soviet Union?" Europeans are very disgusted or should be said to be afraid of the Red Empire, which is full of desire for expansion, but many people despise it from the bottom of their hearts and think it is backward. of savagery.

The Minister of Defense nodded with a displeased expression. "It's possible. Not only Germany and the United States, but also us have sold them a lot of equipment over the years. In addition, the Soviets developed it themselves, so we can't guarantee that they can't build it."

Prime Minister Macdonald looked at the Sea Lord not far away. "If those furry bears really build that kind of 'super battleship', can we resist it?"

The Sea Lord's expression turned even uglier, "460 cannon!" It's like one shot into the soul! It's a shame that the Germans can imagine such crazy dimensions! "Mr. Prime Minister, we'd better get the blueprint of the 'super battleship' and study it carefully before making a decision." Just listening to the data shows that none of the existing warships in the British Empire can match it. You may not be able to gain the upper hand, and you may even be counterattacked by your opponent. The most dangerous Soviets couldn't possibly build only one or two ships, right? !

The best way is to get the drawings and study them carefully to see if there are any flaws.

The Army Chief of Staff also added. "There are also drawings of that 'super tank'."

drawing?

Prime Minister MacDonald sighed melancholy.

Then we can only ask the Germans. If I had known this, I should have exchanged those "super weapon" blueprints with the Germans on the condition of the Rhineland. Fortunately now, the Rhineland has returned to German hands. If we ask them for drawings again, we don't know what conditions the other party will put forward.

The distant Ming Dynasty.

"Xiaohan, why are you back?" William II, who was sitting comfortably on a recliner and bathing in the sun, asked kindly when he saw his granddaughter running back in a hurry. (As mentioned earlier, William II visited the Ming Dynasty when he was young, met a woman, and gave birth to a daughter.)

The girl shouted, waving the newspaper in her hand. "Grandpa, I just received the news that Yannick personally led the Guards troops into the Rhineland."

William II was immediately taken aback and almost jumped up. "Then France..."

"There was no reaction from France. Not only France, but also the United Kingdom and the United States acquiesced to his actions."

William II couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head slightly. "Hey, this kid is still too reckless. Aren't you afraid of triggering a war by doing this?"

The big shots in Berlin, Germany, all except Yannick, were all waiting in fear for the reactions of various countries. Of course, Yannick knew that France failed to send troops to drive them away in the first time, which meant that the opportunity was completely lost.

One hour, two hours, three hours.

One day, two days, three days.

France and Britain did not respond to their own entry into the Rhineland! They actually acquiesced to this blatant violation of the Treaty of Versailles? !

Goebbels's propaganda department, under Yannick's direction, began to report the exciting news.

"Extra! Extra! The German Guards take back the Rhineland!"

"Come and see! The Rhineland has been restored! Germany has avenged its previous humiliation!"

"His Royal Highness Yannick personally led the army across the Rhine! Germany has emerged from the shadow of war!"

"His Royal Highness Yannick is about to lead us out of the economic crisis!"

Compared with the frightened high-level figures, ordinary people don't have so many worries. In the depressing atmosphere of the economic crisis, hearing some exciting news is a great comfort to the working people at the bottom. They know that their motherland has dignity again, the economy is better than before, and the order on the streets has improved a lot.

Yannick not only overhauled highways and various magnificent buildings showing German style throughout the country, but also emphasized the development of "people's cars", "parking lots", "free trade centers", "parks" and "green areas". The country has achieved Full employment. Now all citizens are making money and have enough to eat.

In fact, this can only be said to be a short-term solution to Germany's economic problems. Military expansion and these constructions are funded by various loans and inflationary expenditures. However, the German people did not understand this at the beginning, and the inflationary pressure will not appear until a few years later. .

Victory!

Celebration parades were held in Berlin, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt... and Cologne, Koblenz, Frankfurt, Mainz and other large cities that were originally part of the Rhineland, becoming a veritable carnival night.

All kinds of gorgeous fireworks shot into the sky for free, blooming into clusters of dazzling light.

Standing on cars or riding horses, the women who made various gorgeous poses were all half-naked. Their tall figures and graceful curves made of silver foil seemed to come from the inspiration and creation of God. Germans are all happy and proud...

Victory! Now, Germany's economy has developed enough, and politically, it is making continuous progress!

Just as the whole country was celebrating, Yannick received another good news. The Soviet Union agreed to build the railway and construction started immediately!
