At present, Crown Prince Wilhelm, the most powerful in Germany, is in charge of the current reform of the German government, which wants to transform Germany into a democratic country in order to obtain the qualification for peace talks with the Entente.

At the very least, it should be a democracy recognized by the Entente.

In September, Prince Marx, who succeeded Hautling as Prime Minister of Germany, sent a diplomatic note to US President Wilson accepting the peace treaty proposed by Wilson at the beginning of the year.

Wilson immediately replied, urging Germany to accept the "Fourteen Points" in an almost friendly manner.

This was the first time that Wilson's "Fourteen Points" had been endorsed by the world powers, and Wilson had reason to be friendly to Germany, even if the two sides were at war.

In fact, everyone understands that peaceful coexistence between countries is the norm, and the state of war cannot last forever, perhaps tomorrow the war will end, and the day after tomorrow, Germany and the United States will resume trade.

When the news of the Germans' agreement to the "Fourteen Points" reached the Élysée Palace and Buckingham Palace, it immediately aroused strong dissatisfaction in Britain and France.

Again, the focus of the contradiction is on the self-determination of private capital.

Germany had lost all its overseas colonies in the war, and of course Germany agreed to the "Fourteen Points", but this was deliberately disgusting to Britain and France, which were on the verge of a great victory.

But "peace" is already the consensus of everyone, and Britain and France cannot insist on going their own way, so Britain and France refused to negotiate with the German government under the pretext that Germany is still in a **** state.

While rejecting the German government's peace proposal, Britain and France launched another large-scale attack on the front, trying to break through the Hindenburg Line, push the front line to German territory, and force Germany to surrender unconditionally.

By this time it was October, and the Americans had finally expelled the Germans from the Argonne Forest, but the Americans had paid the price of 26,000 killed and 95,000 wounded. The Hague offensive continued to make no progress, and the British suffered 180,000 casualties in two months.

Perhaps knowing that they had been forced to the edge of the precipice, the Germans showed a stubborn will to fight, and their casualties were smaller than those of the Allies, but at the same time their total strength was already far behind the Allies.

At this time, the Entente powers, perhaps after the Americans joined, would be more appropriate to be called "allies".

At this time, the allies had nearly 6 million troops, and the advantages of aircraft, tanks and artillery were becoming more and more obvious, and the new generation of generals of the allies represented by Qin Zhiyuan, Monash and Patton no longer used crowd tactics, but used steel to consume the lives of the Germans.

In early October, the Canadians finally broke through the Hindenburg Line, using a total of 940,000 shells, while they were facing only 100,000 German defenders.

In the ensuing battle, the Allies fired 12,000 tons of artillery shells per day, including 280,000 rounds of Miss 75 shells.

The German artillery was no longer able to fight back at this time, they could only defend passively, and lived in the shadow of the barrage created by Bruchmüller every day.

By mid-October, more and more breakthroughs had been made, and although the Germans had suffered heavy casualties, the German counterattacks would still be fierce if the Allies had engaged ground combat forces.

The marines are resisting, the Bavarian units are resisting, even the crippled infantry divisions that have already been beaten are resisting.

In some positions, the Germans fought until only officers and machine guns remained, but the officers would turn themselves into machine gunners and resolutely resist the Allied offensive as long as they could still move.

In mid-October, the rainy season finally arrived, the roads became muddy, transportation was extremely difficult, and the Allied artillery was still very large, and shells were piled up in the port, but they could not be transported to the front line.

Thought that it was raining continuously, the fighters could not rise into the air, the tanks were stuck in mud puddles, and the machine guns of the Germans in the distance were still rattling, intermittently, sounding like they would stop at any time, but never stopped.

The Entente finally realized that a beleaguered Germany still had the ability to resist, and that they were not Austria-Hungary to be slaughtered.

At the end of October, a report was submitted to Raymond Pongaré's office, in which the War Council assessed the military potential of the German army and estimated that if the war were to be brought to the German mainland and the Germans were completely subjugated by force, the war would continue into the following year, with an additional 500,000 casualties in France.

After reading the report, Raymond Poencaré instructed him to "do enough and send it to Clemenceau."

Raymond Pongaré understood that stopping the war now would lay the groundwork for the future, because the fact that the war did not reach Germany itself would make the Germans think that they were not really defeated, but that they were defeated by the lack of allies.

Then in the future, there is a possibility that the war will break out again.

But Raymond Poengaré had no way to continue the war, and the French government's finances were so depleted that even the Americans were reluctant to lend money to the French government.

The Americans wanted to be the saviors of the world, to save Europe from fire and water on their own.

In September, Ponengale tentatively offered Wilson not to repay the loan, but the United States refused.

Then this money can only be transferred to the Germans, and if Germany is to be retained, then Germany cannot be reduced to rubble.

Lloyd George apparently thought so, for just after the arrival of the Pope's envoy in London, Lloyd George agreed to an armistice.

On November 8, a negotiating delegation led by Matthias Erzberg of the Catholic Central arrived in Compiègne and met with Allied Commander-in-Chief Foch to request the start of armistice negotiations.

Foch made it clear that there was no possibility of negotiation and that the Germans had to surrender unconditionally.

Foch also pointed out that the reason why the Allies agreed to a one-month armistice was that the German army withdrew from the east bank of the Rhine within 14 days, abrogated the Treaty of Brest, withdrew to the eastern border line on August 1, 1914, surrendered 5,000 artillery pieces, 3,000 mortars, 30,000 machine guns, and 2,000 aircraft, and gave up German possessions in East Africa.

Erzberg did not immediately agree to these conditions, and after three days of negotiations, Erzberg finally agreed.

The Armistice Agreement came into force at 11 o'clock on the morning of November 11.

A one-month truce was not to avoid the rainy season, but to negotiate the terms of negotiations.

In other words, although the Peace Agreement has not yet been signed, the world war is over.

When the news spread, some people were ecstatic, some were sad, some wept bitterly, some accepted it calmly, and no matter what, on November 11, 1918, the world war ended.

Not everyone was happy, and when the Armistice was signed, Mangin was extremely dissatisfied, and he exclaimed: No, no, no! We must attack the heart of Germany, and the armistice must be signed in the heart of Germany. Now this agreement, the Germans did not admit defeat, and could not end the war like this...... This is a fatal mistake, for which France will pay!

Standing in Qin Zhiyuan's position, Manjing said very much.

But at the same time, because it was said by Manjing, it has no weight.

After the signing of the "Armistice Agreement", peace negotiations followed, which was a feast, Qin Zhiyuan did not want the Republic of China to be absent, so Qin Zhiyuan sent someone to invite Lu Zhengxiang.

In the Black Swan Castle in Paris, Lu Zhengxiang had a bitter expression: "...... I know that the peace agreement has been signed, and I know that the world war is over, and the country should indeed send a delegation over, but who can? Who can represent our Republic of China? ”

Lu Zhengxiang's voice was thick nasal, his eyes were red, and he seemed to be about to break down and cry at any time.

Just three months ago, the country's Anfu department won the general election, a new parliament was established in the House of Representatives, and the prime minister and president of the Republic of China announced their resignation on the same day.

Then the Anfu National Assembly began to quarrel over the choice of president, and the former prime minister and the former president had the same approval rating, and the battle lasted for three months.

In other words, in the current Republic of China, there is no prime minister and no president, and there is only an Anfu Congress that quarrels all day long.

For them, it is an urgent matter to elect a president who can represent their own interests, and as for the upcoming peace talks in Europe, they will go who they love.

Lu Zhengxiang has called China several times to ask the country to pay attention to this matter, but it has not attracted any attention because no one has the right to make a decision.

Lu Zhengxiang had nothing to do but send a telegram, because even the current operating funds of the embassy were sponsored by Qin Zhiyuan.

"What then? Are we just watching others make a lot of money, but we don't get anything? Qin Zhiyuan was dissatisfied.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that he was in the critical stage of "sharing spoils", Qin Zhiyuan would have the intention of returning to China now.

Qin Zhiyuan really wanted to ask those MPs of the Anfu Association in person: Do you want to do this congressman?

If you don't want to do it, leave quickly, and wait in line if you want to do it.

"The country has no peace, the dragons have no leader, helpless, helpless!" Lu Zhengxiang was full of anger.

During World War I, the Western powers had no time to look eastward, which was originally a good opportunity for the Republic of China to take the opportunity to strengthen its own development strength. But I didn't expect that the country began to fall into war after the "Hongxian Dynasty", and this fight was four years, and the world war was over, and the country refused to stop.

How belligerent should you be?

Why did the belligerent propose to send troops to Europe when no one wanted to come?

But that's what the country is all about......

"Why don't we form a group to make up the numbers first?" Qin Zhiyuan found another way.

Lu Zhengxiang is a literati, and literati like to follow the rules, because they are afraid of breaking the rules, which will make them go to the living space.

Qin Zhiyuan is different, Qin Zhiyuan is a martial artist, what a martial artist is best at is, of course, force, and any strategy in the face of absolute strength is futile.

"Let's ...... How to group? "Lu Zhengxiang is not a pedantic, as long as someone supports him, Lu Zhengxiang is not unable to do anything.

"You find a few people first, let's form a delegation, occupy a name, and then say, if there is any good thing, you have to go up and make a living, and you can't fall behind others." When he could take advantage, Qin Zhiyuan never refused to suffer.

"Shhh...... What should I do when the country sends someone over? Lu Zhengxiang hesitated, but his eyes full of hope revealed Lu Zhengxiang's true thoughts in his heart.

"When the time comes, let them go if the people who come are suitable, and stay where they are cool if they are not suitable." Qin Zhiyuan quickly cut through the mess.

"Okay, just take Qin Du's idea." Lu Zhengxiang smiled with wrinkles on his face, and this skill of changing his face is also profound.
