"What, you're going to trade with them with the German fleet that we have mortgaged, oh my goodness, how is this possible, how is it possible? ”

Churchill's words made Lloyd. George exclaimed again and again, he had no idea that Churchill would make such a suggestion.

"Of course it's possible, Mr. Prime Minister!"

When he heard that the Japanese were willing to pay a huge price for these German battleships, Churchill's head turned on the abacus. Speaking of which, due to his family connections, he did not have as much affection for the French as he did in the past. His mother's family was American, and he preferred Americans to the French often mischievous.

I am afraid that this is one of the reasons why the British were able to form a strong alliance with the Americans in World War II.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I can imagine how interesting it is that the Japanese have submitted an ad hoc discussion item this time. I can't imagine someone like the 'problem bandits' who could agree that the Japanese would regain a strong navy and not be under his control. For that guy, it was impossible. Therefore, the idea of the Japanese to buy the hulls of battleships is nothing more than to do something for the Chinese that they are not very good at coming forward. ”

Lloyd's. George had already heard something by this time, and it seemed that Churchill had devised a means that would enable the British to get an attack aircraft carrier at no extra cost. And these means are about the same as the German Ocean Fleet, which was detained by the British fleet.

Sure enough, Churchill's following words confirmed his opinion.

"We can trade the main German warships, which are now mortgaged by the British fleet, and it seems to me that this is a possible thing. As far as I know, apart from the transfer of a part of the German fleet to the Japanese, the rest of the main warships were to be distributed to the European and American countries as compensation for the war costs.

But Mr. Prime Minister, of course you know that these fleets require large maintenance costs. So the first way, we can take the warships that will group us in the future and barter with the Chinese, you know that there are not many of their capital ships. Moreover, the commanders of their fleets were Germans, believing that they would have liked German battleships even more.

The second way is more interesting, maybe we can pay a penny. ”

Lloyd's. If George had not trusted his War Secretary Winston Churchill and was a politician who was totally loyal to the British royal family, he would have thought that he might have made some deal with China in private to help them acquire the ships. Otherwise, the proposal he is now making is more and more like a conspiracy.

"According to the intelligence services, it seems that the German navy has a tendency to take revenge on the Entente powers, and when the peace talks completely ignore the interests of Germany, these warships will collectively sink themselves, so that the Allied navies will have no compensation for them.

You may have noticed that the German cutting-edge weapons manufacturing industry, which will have moved to China. If we lose this piece of interest again, what will we British people have left?

Now, all we have to do is create the illusion that all the main German warships are going to the bottom of the sea, which can be easily done with some old warships. It is believed that among the 74 warships, 10~20 old warships were sunk, while the rest of the warships were far away from the sea route and headed for China. It is believed that both the Germans and the Chinese would like this to end this fleet.

As for the third option...... Seriously, Mr. Prime Minister, I'm afraid you may not like it very much, but personally, this is the best way to curb the expansion of Soviet Russia! ”

Sometimes in this matter, Lloyd. Prime Minister George didn't quite understand Churchill, and he never understood why this guy always seemed to have a bitter hatred for Soviet Russia.

History has passed, and today it is impossible to explain why Churchill hated the Soviet Union at that time. But there are some reasons that can be followed, and the reasons that can be analyzed from the larger environment are very indicative of what the problem is.

At that time, Soviet Russia was established, using a rather forceful approach. In particular, as mentioned earlier, the lapse of the Peace of Brest and the massacre of the Tsar's family were an absolute atrocity for Churchill, who had always been loyal to the British royal family.

For example, Cromwell's guillotine took the life of Charles I, but he did not manage to get rid of Charles I's family, friends, or others. At the very least, he wouldn't have bothered to shoot a seven-year-old.

We do not know whether Lenin or Stalin would have agreed to such a massacre that was fundamentally inhumane and ageless. But the Cheka's actions illustrate the brutality of the Russian Revolution at that time in a way.

Moreover, this has always been a characteristic of the Soviet state, such as Stalin's purges in the early and late stages of World War II. These include "collective farms" built by means of forced plunder, and repressive policies towards Ukraine. On the other hand, Germany during World War II may have saved the lives of the Soviet Union and kept them alive for a few more years.

But what is not reasonable will not last forever! Although it is not God who says it, the facts of history are proving so.

"Alright, Winston, just tell me what you can do, let's get an end to this!"

"Of course, Mr. Prime Minister. We should vote in our yes when China is likely to return to the peace conference. Now the Americans are not sure, but the Japanese are certain that they will vote in favor of the city so that it does not burn down. If we also vote in favor, the Americans, who were not very satisfied with the distribution system of the peace conference, believe that they will do the same for their own benefit, and then ......"

Lloyd's. Prime Minister George shook his head and told Churchill not to go any further. There is no doubt that if the third method is to no avail, then the ownership of the German fleet can be ignored, and the division of interests may need to be re-theorized. At that time, if Japan, the United States, and Britain all agree to China's participation in the peace conference, then it will be the French whose interests will be betrayed! ”

Lloyd's. George almost never imagined that the peace conference would evolve into what it is today. Since excluding China and negating the US viewpoint, he has always had a feeling of discomfort. That is, in this war, the British, who also paid a lot, were being led by the nose by the French.

And apparently, this time the unfairness in the distribution of benefits has also caused dissatisfaction among the Americans. Now that the "problem bandit" has come to Europe, and he still arrives here as a private person, what is he going to do?

When Christmas came, he finally understood what Tang Yunyang was "doing" when he came here in a private capacity.

Regardless of the "British BBC", "French Voice of Libre", and "****", which first appeared, now due to their market share, radio stations that have semi-official status are lively almost at the same time. No matter how male or female, no matter how sweet the announcer usually sounds, their reporting is like some kind of stimulant.

“…… We see that traffic in Paris has been completely interrupted and there are not even police on the streets, which has led to multiple violent incidents. From what we heard, these policemen also joined the strike...... We fear that the situation in Paris will be even more serious! ”

"Oh my God, do you see! It was a car that burned down. Black smoke has enveloped the Eiffel Tower in Paris! ……”

"According to the trade unions, they are well prepared for this strike, which will continue until the government comes up with concrete measures to improve it, and the strike will not ......"

"Let's watch the first release together, please support genuine reading, and support the author's creation" Don't laugh and give birth to a group: 35761481; Mailbox:.

The British government, far away on this side of the English Channel, immediately made preparations, not only did the army carry out its duties on the streets, but also the government said through the media that it would try to increase the employment rate and the level of relief for the poor in the near future.

Social contradictions began to arise with the recovery of a large number of military personnel. As soon as the soldiers who had been tortured by war purgatory returned to a peaceful life, it was naturally not easy for them to adapt to it, and more importantly, they found that when they were not at home, their wives might run away with someone and their jobs would be gone. These are the most basic reasons for social dissatisfaction and turmoil, and they are also the easiest places for Tang Yunyang to act.

At the beginning of the rise in Paris, Britain could not be calm. Sinn Féin MPs don't come to London, and the IRA under their leadership has now suddenly increased a lot of equipment, not only with all kinds of light weapons, but also with some French fighter jets such as Tomcat-A/B.

In the confrontation with the British regular army, although the two sides were tense, they still did not really mean to move. In this case, Lloyd's. George knew that it was not the French but the Chinese who made the ghost. Because now they are the only ones in the world who have the ability to transport smuggled weapons on the weakly defended shores of any country.

In a world without radar, what if you were to guard against this pervasive smuggling along a long coastline? How much does it have to cost? This can be seen from the number of Chinese industrial products that are now flooded in various countries.

In this context, the British Prime Minister thought of Churchill's intriguing proposal. Of course, betraying the interests of France, its wartime ally, always seemed wrong.

There is no doubt that when faced with the conflict between one's own interests and the interests of others, it is believed that people will give priority to how their own interests can be safeguarded, and as for the interests of others, they cannot be compared with their own interests.

In this way, the invitation that we saw earlier will also lead to the transaction that will happen later.
