The Third Reich: I seized power

On January 8, 1935, there was only one week before the referendum in Saarland.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Gallic State, Buisson, arrived in Palin to formally hold urgent consultations with the Third Reich on the issue of the referendum in the Saarland.

Hess, the ruler of the Third Reich, personally received Buisson, and he wanted to see what the Gauls wanted to do.

“Your Excellency, we have occupied Saarland for seventeen years. Over the years, the citizens of Saarland have become accustomed to our rule and even identify with it. As far as I know, many citizens of Saarland consider themselves Gauls. Under such circumstances, the holding of a referendum is simply not necessary. That would only make the Third Reich even more embarrassing. Therefore, we think it is better to cancel the referendum altogether. In accordance with the wishes of the citizens of the Saarland, the Saarland was allowed to join the Gaul state. This is the best result for us! Buisson had a smile on his face.

Hess’s face suddenly became gloomy, and he said that diplomats had to be thick-skinned.

However, this guy in front of him can no longer be described as thick-skinned, he is simply shameless to the extreme!

“Your Excellency, as far as I know, the citizens of Saarland are not willing to join the Gallic State as Your Excellency said, are they? They have long been looking forward to returning to the Third Reich. Your country has a good calculation to annex the territory of the Third Reich in this way. ”

Being exposed by Hess in person made Buisson’s face very ugly, and the smile on his face also disappeared.

“Your Excellency, I have come with great sincerity. The Gallic State wanted peace with the Third Reich. Buisson’s words were clearly threatening.

“Peace? We love peace equally. But if such peace were to be exchanged for our territory and our people, we would rather not. “Hess is very firm on this issue.

Buisson’s eyes looking at Hess were full of coldness.

“Your Excellency, according to the information we have, your country has begun to blatantly violate the Treaty of Versailles. The number of your Wehrmacht has long exceeded 100,000. If we want to pursue it, we can even go to war against your country because of this! Buison warned.

“Your Excellency, may I understand that this is threatening us?” Hess asked.

“No, Your Excellency, this is not a threat, but an exhortation, a kind exhortation!” Buizon shook his head.

However, Hess knew that the Gauls were warning the Third Reich.

They demanded that the Third Reich cede the Saarland as a bargaining chip for the Gallic State not to hold the Third Reich accountable for violating the Treaty of Versailles.

Hess took a deep breath, and then said: “Your Excellency, the original Versailles Treaty was originally an unequal treaty forced by the victorious countries to sign us, and it was unfair. This treaty has bullied our people. ”

“Your Excellency, is it not your country that intends to recognize the Treaty of Versailles?” Buisson’s tone began to become aggressive.

“No, Your Excellency. We will not fail to recognize the Versailles Treaty. It’s just that I think there are some irrationalities in it that should be revised! Hess said.

If he could, of course, he would want to tear up the Versailles Treaty.

But now the strength of the Third Reich is far from restored, and tearing up the “Versailles Treaty” now, once the war starts, will be very unfavorable to the Third Reich.

Therefore, it can only be forbeared for the time being.

“Your Excellency, the treaty has been signed, and now if you want to amend it, it is impossible!” Buison said.

The greatest effect of the Treaty of Versailles was to greatly weaken the Third Reich.

This is very beneficial for the Gallic state, and of course they will not agree to the modification.

“Your Excellency, the referendum in Saarland is imminent. The people there looked forward to returning to the Third Reich. The Third Reich will definitely not abandon them either! Hess’s attitude was already clear.

“Your Excellency, don’t you need to think about it again?” Buizon asked.

Hess shook his head: “On this issue, don’t think about it. The Third Reich will never compromise and back down! ”

“All right, Your Excellency. Hopefully, you won’t regret your choice today! After Buison finished speaking, he got up to leave.

Naturally, Hess’s attitude was already known, so there was no need to waste any more time.

Looking at the back of Buisson’s departure, Hess’s face turned livid.

“Damn Gauls, you are so arrogant. Do you really think that the current Third Reich is still something you can bully at will? Mr. Bowman, tell General Bromberg that the second phase of the expansion plan can begin! Hess said.

“Yes, Your Excellency!” Martin Bowman replied.

If war is to be fought, the second phase of the expansion of the Third Reich must be completed. In this case, the strength of the Wehrmacht would increase to 800,000 men. Even against the Gauls, they definitely have the power to fight and even defeat them.
