The Paris Peace Conference, which lasted for more than five months, finally came to an end, and a new world system was built with the Treaty of Versailles as the mainstay. However, the world's most extensive colonies are still in the hands of the British and French, allowing their colonial system to be maintained.

It's just that the huge losses of the war made both Britain and France suffer heavy losses. Although they managed to win the war, their national strength had been greatly damaged. The world colonial system established by the two countries has also become extremely fragile. If there is another large-scale war, there is a possibility of collapse. Of course, in a short period of time, its position as the world hegemon is still solid.

Although the United States and the Chinese Empire gained enormous benefits from the war, it was difficult to challenge the British and French colonial systems. However, the huge profits from the war will make China and the United States stronger. In the future, it will not be long before it will have the ability to challenge Britain and compete for world hegemony.

As for the defeated Germany and Austria-Hungary, they paid an extremely heavy price for this war. Not only did Germany lose large swathes of territory, but its military power was also limited. The huge war reparations put a heavy burden on Germany. Of course, the harsh armistice conditions also made many Germans resentful. This time, though, they had to compromise. However, that doesn't mean they'll be resigned.

The Austro-Hungarian Empire was even worse, the original huge empire had disappeared and was replaced by small states. After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the newly established small countries could only be reduced to second- and third-rate countries in Europe, and lost the ability to compete for hegemony.

After the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, the Imperial delegation did not leave Paris immediately, and Britain, France, the United States, and China prepared to start further consultations on the question of Soviet Russia. During the time of the Paris Peace Conference. The Russians formed the Red Army and launched counterattacks on several fronts, inflicting heavy losses on the Russian White Army and the intervention forces of the Great Powers. After the Allies lay down, the Western powers already regarded Soviet Russia as their main enemy.

"Gentlemen, I have to tell you with regret. The Russian Red Army had already passed the initial dangerous phase. The current Soviet Russian Red Army is becoming stronger and stronger. The White Army that we supported and the intervention forces that were sent out. It doesn't seem to last long. Soviet Russia is going to be the greatest enemy of the entire capitalist world, and we must work together to destroy them. British Prime Minister David Lloyd George said.

The rest of the participants nodded their heads, but it was clear that both French Prime Minister Clemenceau and Chinese Prime Minister Yang Du were perfunctory.

The French took advantage of the Paris Peace Conference this time. They are bent on dreaming of a French revival and a delusional desire to become the hegemon of the European continent. It is almost impossible for them to send a large number of troops to the Russian battlefield. Especially in the First World War, France suffered heavy losses. Anti-war sentiment is running high in the country. If the French government had dared to make the decision to send troops into Russia to fight the Russian Red Army, the angry populace would have removed them all. Even though Clemenceau is known as the tiger prime minister, he obviously does not dare to confront public opinion.

As for China, it has already reached a consensus with Soviet Russia, so naturally it will not attack with all its might. The Chinese Empire was gradually digesting the newly occupied territories, and would not launch a new offensive until these territories were digested. Besides, China is preparing to rebuild the Russian Empire, known as Princess Anastasia. As a buffer zone between the Chinese Empire and Soviet Russia. Regardless of whether Soviet Russia is eliminated or not, the security of the Chinese Empire is guaranteed. So. The mood of the Chinese Empire to destroy Soviet Russia was not in a hurry.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the United States has sent tens of thousands of troops into various territories to fight. We also provided large quantities of war materials to the Intervention Army and the White Army. In the war to intervene in Soviet Russia, the United States has done its best. U.S. President Wilson said.

At the Paris Peace Conference, the United States did not gain as much as previously expected, which made the Americans already a little dissatisfied.

"Your Excellency Yang Du. When will the army of the Chinese Empire launch a new offensive and reverse the current situation in one fell swoop? David Lloyd George asked. The Chinese Empire sent more than 700,000 troops to attack Russia, making it the country that sent the most troops. Only, now it seems. The Chinese* army seems to be completely rushing to grab territory! This made the Western powers very dissatisfied.

"Your Excellency George, the Chinese* army has also done its best. It's not that we don't want to launch a new offensive, it's that the backward transportation conditions in Central Asia and Siberia seriously restrict our military operations. In addition, those guerrillas controlled by the Russians are also wantonly attacking our logistical supply lines, which has caused great problems in our logistical supply lines. Yang Du said expressionlessly.

After the Chinese army was stationed in Omsk, Astana and the Aral Sea and the Caspian Sea, it stopped continuing its advance. On the one hand, the construction of fortifications began, and on the other hand, the guerrillas in the rear were eliminated, and all those guerrillas controlled by Soviet Russia were eliminated, so as to strengthen the Empire's control over these new territories. There is also the construction of railways and roads in these new occupation areas in preparation for the next step.

How could David Lloyd George not hear that this was perfunctory? This made him very angry. It's just that the British Empire's status as the world hegemon has now been greatly reduced. Even if China is deliberately perfunctory, they have nothing to do.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if Soviet Russia is allowed to develop, it will be the enemy of capitalist society as a whole. I hope you all do it yourself. David Lloyd George said. Since everyone is just coping with the strangulation of Soviet Russia, then he can't manage so much. Anyway, Britain had vast colonies to exploit and would soon be able to emerge from the war.

U.S. President Wilson also said nothing, saying that the United States has two moats, the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean, and even if Soviet Russia develops and becomes strong, it is impossible to threaten the United States.

French President Clemenceau also did not take the threat of Soviet Russia seriously, and after winning the war, France has become the hegemon of the European continent. If Soviet Russia could really fight from Eastern Europe to Western Europe, they would also be able to defeat Soviet Russia in one fell swoop. After all, the German Army, which is known as the best in the world, has been defeated by them, so isn't the French Army the strongest in the world?

As for China, it already has a perfect strategy for dealing with Soviet Russia, and it is not afraid at all. Naturally, it will not respond to Britain at this time, strengthen the attack on Soviet Russia, and act as cannon fodder for the Western world.

The leaders of the four countries all have evil intentions, so this meeting did not form any useful agreement at all. In the end, everyone just reached an agreement to contain Soviet Russia. As for how to contain Soviet Russia, it is up to each country to do so.

When Yang Du, the Prime Minister of the Empire, returned to the Imperial Legation in France, he found that the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Empire was waiting for him, and there was another middle-aged man of Caucasian nationality in the reception room. Yang Du knew the other party, and the other party was the German government's foreign minister, Hermann Müller, who signed his name on behalf of Germany in the Treaty of Versailles.

"Your Excellency, you are back. Minister Mueller has been waiting for you for a while. Tang Shaoyi said with a smile.

"Good afternoon, Your Excellency Minister Mueller." Yang Du greeted Muller with a smile on his face, and did not look down on him because of Germany's defeat.

"Hello, Prime Minister. Thank you to the Chinese Empire for everything that has been done for Germany at this Paris Peace Conference. On the battlefield, although we were once enemies. However, the war is over, and we hope to be friends with the Chinese Empire once again. Hermann Müller said.

Although, many Germans were very dissatisfied with the Chinese Empire's participation in the Allied war, believing that it was a betrayal of Germany. Hermann Müller, however, knew that it was all in his own national interest. On the contrary, the Chinese Empire helped Germany at the Paris Peace Conference, and gave up its demand for reparations from Germany, etc., all of which were showing goodwill to Germany.

"Your Excellency, you are serious. Although, we have the heart to help Germany. Unfortunately, it didn't help. Yang Du said embarrassedly.

After all, the Treaty of Versailles was so harsh for Germany.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, we all see the help of the Chinese Empire to us. It's just that Britain and France are powerful, and they hold a grudge against Germany. How could this opportunity to dominate Germany be passed up? We are already grateful that the Chinese Empire was able to stand up and speak for us. Minister Mueller expressed his heartfelt gratitude.

"Your Excellency, after all, Germany helped us in the first place. It is also what we should do to help Germany as much as we can. I have already contacted His Majesty the Emperor that we may provide Germany with a quantity of food, medicine, and light industrial goods to repay the loan that the Chinese Empire had received from Germany. Yang Du said.

"Thank you for the help of the Chinese Empire." Mueller couldn't laugh or cry. The Chinese Empire owed Germany at least two billion marks. However, from the end of the war until the end of the war, the Deutsche Mark depreciated all the way. Now, the mark is only one percent of its previous value. In other words, the Chinese Empire borrowed two billion marks from Germany, and now it only needs to repay twenty million marks.

However, the willingness of the Chinese Empire to provide Germany with much-needed food, medicine, and light industrial products can be regarded as a solution to Germany's urgent needs.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister, Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary, on behalf of Your Excellency the President, I invite you to visit Germany at an appropriate time." Minister Mueller said suddenly.

Yang Du hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm sorry, I need to rush back to China as soon as possible." However, Foreign Minister Tang and Chief of the General Staff, Marshal Shi Tianhan, could visit Germany on behalf of the Reich. (To be continued.) )
