I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 415 You Are Old
William II sneered, "Then let's give it a try. It's not yet certain who will win and who will lose."

"You shouldn't be able to use your weapon a second time, right?" Joan of Arc said slowly.

William II's expression did not change at all, and he sarcastically said, "Do you want to give it a try?"

“The research on Katyusha was not only conducted by Tesla, but also by scientists from Beichen and Tsarist Russia who spent a long time researching it.

Tesla had actually been calculating this for many years before this.

I don't believe that you can come up with such a weapon out of thin air a few days after the explosion. "

Jeanne's eyes were very determined.Of course, she actually couldn't be 100% sure, otherwise she wouldn't have come.

But this kind of certainty is also necessary in negotiations.

"Assuming that you do have mass production capabilities, we can continue to go to war and throw such weapons at each other on our respective territories until one side can no longer accept it.

However, weapons like yours will ultimately be delivered by fighter jets or airships. Our Tesla cannon has absolute air defense capabilities.

It’s not certain who won’t be able to accept it in the end. "

William II fell silent and just stared at her quietly.

“You and I both know that when the war has reached this level, there is no need to continue fighting.

And the reason why you are still hesitating is because you are afraid that after this defeat, the angry citizens will pull you down from that position and even send you to the guillotine.

As far as I know, the Messerist movement in your country is very active, and you are afraid that what happened to Tsarist Russia will happen to you.

Therefore, you need me to bear this anger, or to obtain tangible benefits from West France to eliminate the anger of the people.

However, have you forgotten that although this war is mainly fought between you and us, West France?

But looking at it as a whole, it is your allies who are at war with our Allied Powers and Beichen at the same time.

Even though we, the Allied Powers, signed an armistice agreement with you, the war on the Western Front ended with both sides sweeping away the trouble.

But you still have to give Beichen an explanation. No matter what, you cannot change the outcome of your defeated country.

When we went to Northern Russia to obtain Katyusha, Ms. Russell, the foreign minister of Beichen, and Mr. Reilly of Britannia were both present, and we had a conversation together.

Everyone agreed that after this war ended, the world needed to develop a new international order.

Therefore, when everything stops, all countries in the world need to participate in an international diplomatic conference to decide the future of the world in a democratic way.

As a defeated country, you are obviously at a disadvantage in this international conference.

So, are you sure you are ready to anger West France?
Or are you prepared to let Germany be isolated from the world? "

William II was still speechless. He was no longer in the overlooking posture, rubbing the armrests with his palms, but his expression remained the same.

"The conditions I just offered are already the best that West France can offer!" Joan of Arc continued, "If this war continues, it will only do you harm, not good."

"Since you think that if this war continues, it will definitely end with the defeat of our allies, and you also think that we do not have the power to unleash the second shot of that weapon.

Then why did you come to talk to me?

When the fight reaches a point where we can no longer accept it, we will naturally talk to you, right?

Why, sacrifice your interests in West France? "

"I'm not sacrificing the interests of West France, I'm protecting the people of West France and the cannon fodder you forcibly recruited and sent to the battlefield." Joan of Arc said slowly, "The intensity of the war is rising exponentially, and during this period it has increased Hundreds of thousands of people would die on the battlefield."

“Moreover, once you sign the defeat treaty in another way, you Germany will lose everything you have in this war.

You will be a piece of cake, placed at the table of the victors, to be divided and eaten.

But then, peace will never truly come.

The establishment of a new international order must ensure that everyone is equal, or that one party will not completely lose its right to speak and obtain rights and interests that are in line with its own interests.

Otherwise, it will just delay the next war for decades. William sneered, "Do you think you are a saint?" "

"I never considered myself a saint, just a mediocre woman who heard the sighs of God." Joan of Arc said slowly, "I said, I came here for peace and to eliminate hatred."

“The public anger in this country was caused by you yourself.

If you go and look on the streets, look at the disabled veterans, look at the wives who have lost their husbands, the children who have lost their parents.

Do you think they hate West France more, or do they hate those who sent them to the battlefield as cannon fodder to fight this unjust war?
If I were you, I would execute a few of the most radical war criminals to vent public anger. "

"Before that, my throne will be lost first." William II said.

"You have to make a choice." Joan of Arc said quietly, "One is to directly sign an armistice agreement with us, and you will be pushed from the throne by the angry people in the country.

The other option is to capture me, or use me in exchange for benefits from West France, or execute me and put all the faults on me.

Then you piss off West France, and in the final international conference, Germany is divided, and your best outcome is to become a puppet emperor, and you won't rule out the possibility of stepping down.

The last option is to execute those who are truly at fault, in order to vent public anger and at the same time alleviate the anger within West France.

I know you are capable, with the level of control you have over this country, you just need some guidance from public opinion.

It just depends on whether you think about it or not. "

William II frowned slightly and fell into deep thought, but Joan of Arc did not continue to speak. She knew that the emperor in front of her should be able to understand the stakes.

But at this moment, the door was violently knocked open, and a group of armed soldiers rushed in and surrounded them.

The middle-aged man who just said he was guarding behind them walked in followed by a young man.

The young man was wearing a military uniform, had blond hair, a standard German appearance, and was tall. He was the Crown Prince Malfoy.

He was also Joan of Arc's main opponent on the battlefield of Verdun.

William frowned deeply and scolded, "What are you going to do, Malfoy!!?"

"Father, I really can't listen anymore." Malfoy walked in and looked at Joan of Arc, "What she said is based on the premise that we don't have the kind of city-destroying weapon. This is a A rhetorical trap."

The anger on William's face did not dissipate because of Malfoy's explanation, but became more intense, "Are you spying on me!?"

Malfoy didn't respond, just looked at Jeanne with a sarcastic expression.

Joan of Arc's expression was also very calm, "So, do you have any?"

"Who knows?" Malfoy sarcastically said, "What most people in the world know is that this weapon has been detonated three times, twice by West France, and once by Germany.

Who dares to question?

Who dares to question the existence of such weapons with their own city?

Even if the conference you are talking about opens in the future, with this kind of weapon, we can still have a certain degree of sovereignty in the conference.

It doesn’t matter whether we have it or not. What matters is that others think we have it.

The weapon itself is more intimidating than practical. "

"For us, domestic riots are more troublesome than foreign troops, but I didn't expect that you actually came to our door in person."

Malfoy slowly opened his mouth.

"Come here, imprison this enemy general, the culprit behind the bombing of Dresden, the witch whose hands are stained with the blood of millions of German people - Joan of Arc!"

"Do you want to usurp the throne? Malfoy." William II's voice came slowly.

Malfoy looked at William II sitting on the throne. Compared to William II's angry face, he said calmly.

"Father, you are old"
