The French are smart-minded, and the rest of the Entente are not stupid, and they have reached this point that they should naturally think carefully about their future, especially those who already know their fate well in this war.

In fact, at this time, there were few Entente blocs, originally Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Portugal, Serbia, and North America, Serbia was restored, but this country was basically dead, and now there are 20,000 original guerrillas adapted from the Serbian army following the United States and Britain to attack Hungary, Belgium has also recovered, the same five years of war destruction is also a ruin, they also have 50,000 people on the battlefield, Portugal is dead, and now only a few thousand people follow the exiled King of Portugal, Chile is also on the verge of extinction at this time, after all, most of the remaining South American countries have joined the allies except for them, and several companies beat them up, no matter how strong they are, it is a dead end.

The real core members of the Entente are Britain, France, Russia, Italy, and North America, and Britain, Russia, and North America are diehards, but Italy is not.

"The Italians want to talk to us alone?" Emperor Yang looked at Hai Jing with a funny face, although he admired the shamelessness of the Italians, it was also very strange that they were shameless to such an extent.

"Yes, Your Majesty, they can withdraw from the Entente at once if we agree, and if we can tolerate their mistakes, they are even willing to fight alongside us." Haijing also said with a smile.

"So how far do they want us to be tolerant?" Yang Feng asked curiously.

"They have no opinion at all about the ceded land, whether it is the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venesia or the islands of Sardinia and Sicily, let alone their colonies, and the only demand of the Italian government is that we have a small amount of war reparations." Haijing said.

The Savoy family was actually frightened by Yang Feng's hook-up with the Pope, and they didn't care about the land, the Savoy family was only in the Alps on the border between France and Italy, and now the whole of Italy is the reward they later received in a series of correct positions, including their other hometown of Sardinia. So they can accept the loss of these lands, but if Yang Feng is allowed to get out of the original Papal State, they will be a little unbearable.

What's more, at this time, the Pope has not yet recognized the legitimate occupation of the Papal States by the Kingdom of Italy, and he is still in the state of a self-proclaimed prisoner of the Vatican.

So find Yang Feng as soon as possible and take the initiative to beg for mercy. Shoot this guy's ass, and then let him raise his noble hand, this is the right reason, continuing to insist on resistance is not good for Italy or the Savoy family, and I think Emperor Yang will not like that there is no enemy next to Austria-Hungary or something, for this the Italians still understand.

In fact, the reason why William asked Haijing to convey the request of the Italians was to leave some restraint for Emperor Joseph, after all, the two of them were not really like brothers, and the last war between the two families was only forty years later. The reason why they got together was completely driven by interests, and if you want to talk about the German Zhengshuo, it has to be the Habsburgs, what is Prussia, but a group of lost dogs that were beaten back from Jerusalem and no one wanted. If it weren't for the stupidity of the Poles to lure the wolf into the house, they wouldn't know where to ask for food at this time, and maybe they would have been played to death like the Templars.

"So how much can they accept?" Yang Feng said that he was not ready to create any papal states. Now that Italy has offered to fight back, he certainly doesn't mind taking advantage of it.

"They offered to pay the equivalent of £100 million in gold or silver coins." Haijing said.

"It's not going to work, it's definitely not going to work. If it is less than 500 million pounds, they will still insist on fighting in the Entente, and I don't need them to surrender on their own initiative, and the premise of 500 million pounds is that they must participate in the war against the Entente, if they only withdraw from the Entente, they will have to add another 500 million pounds, and the payment period of 66 years can remain unchanged, and the first indemnity paid cannot be less than 50 million pounds. Yang Feng said.

Of course, Haijing will not have an opinion, although in his own opinion, the Italians may not be able to come up with such a sum of money anyway, but that is a headache for the Italians, the more they lose, the more Germany shares, since this is the case, the more the better, you must know that the reconstruction of Germany requires a huge amount of money.

Immediately after Emperor Yang's offer was sent by telegram to Nuremberg, the provisional capital of Germany, the poor king of Italy is still taken by William's side, even if he was thrown out of Berlin, he did not forget to flee with him, and this king is now the bridge between Italy and the Central Powers. After receiving the telegram, he immediately sent the offer to Rome, and then the negotiators of the Italian government quietly left Rome for Beirut, where they were sent to China by a bomber of the Chinese Army Airlines, and the next question was the negotiation. Anyway, the Italians also understood that by this time, no matter what conditions Emperor Yang offered, they would have to accept them, and even the Italian commanders at the front had already received orders from Rome not to participate in any battles against the Central Powers.

In fact, at this time, the Italian army still controlled the northern part of Croatia, and the American and British coalition forces attacked north from Serbia, they were not aware of the changes in the Italian army, and the Italian army in Croatia never had the courage to take the initiative to attack, at most it was to follow them and wave the flag and shout, and now France has made a turtle with a shrunken head, and it is normal for the Italians to be affected a little.

The goal of the US-British coalition forces in the Hungarian battlefield is very simple, that is, to hit Budapest, in addition to destroying Yang Feng's bombing base, there is also to cut off the logistics supply of the main force of the Austro-Hungarian Army in the Carpathian Mountains, and then the Russian army will break through this defensive line, and then put the two million Russian troops on the opposite side into the Central European Plain, and the Anglo-Russian coalition forces from the north and south will attack the north and south, and in one fell swoop to the city of Vienna to force the Allies to hold peace talks, and then strive for as many interests as possible, even if it is a loss of 5 billion, it will be gritted and accepted. But 30 billion is really making people want to die.

Of course, this is the idea in the hearts of the high-level governments of various countries, but when fooling the soldiers, you must not say that you are working hard, and then exchange your lives and blood for less money after we surrender, so that the soldiers still fart, they have long been scattered and pulled down, and in their propaganda slogans are nothing more than national sovereignty, justice and evil, freedom and democracy and other clichés, but because the Chinese, especially the liberators of the Budapest airport, threw bombs all over Europe under the orders of the Austro-Hungarian crown prince, At this time, the soldiers of the Entente still had enough hope to fight.

Driven by hatred, the entire 300,000 American and British allied troops attacked desperately on the Hungarian plain, approaching Budapest step by step, and the Sino-Austrian allied army led by Archduke Ferdinand could only retreat step by step in the face of the enemy's fierce attack because of the lack of troops and the same lack of supplies.

And at this time, far away Chelyabinsk, the last major battle on the battlefield east of the Ural Mountains finally came to an end, and Grand Duke Nicholas, who had held out in the city for two months, finally admitted defeat, and he led the remnants of less than 30,000 Russian troops to withdraw from Chelyabinsk and flee to Ufa.

However, the Chinese army did not have a plan to continue to attack the Volga River basin in the future, at this time Siberia was still freezing and snowy, and the transportation of materials was very difficult, otherwise it would not have been possible for Grand Duke Nicholas to hold out in Chelyabinsk for so long, and in fact, Yang Feng had no plan to attack the Volga River valley at all. It is not Siberia, there are not many Russians in the whole east of the Urals, the vast majority are in the main settlements along the railways and rivers, the rest are chaotic peoples, these people will not fight for Russia, it doesn't matter who their rulers are, and even they welcome the Chinese, especially those peoples in Central Asia, who have no resistance to their new masters in the entire Central Asian war.

But after the Ural line, it is different, there is the core area of the Russian nation, they will never welcome the Chinese to rule them, the fighting nation is not blowing, they really want to play some kind of guerrilla warfare in the vast land, then even if they occupy these places, it will not be worth the loss.

So for these places, the best way is to let the Russians bleed and play by themselves, and when Comrade Vladimir succeeds, let the white bandit army that accepts his own arms be responsible for the attack, and then William will definitely support a group in the west, and then the east and west will go together to let the Russians kill the Russians, and there will be no pressure on the population of this country to be reduced to tens of millions for a few more years, a Russian empire with a total population of no more than 70 million is the best, and Russia with a population of more than 100 million must be resolutely attacked.

As for the Volga River Basin, it is not a big deal for Yang Feng to occupy it or not, he has occupied enough places, and there is no shortage of this, of course, it is still necessary to negotiate conditions, not only to add, but also to put on a posture of sticking to the end, otherwise it will not be able to strengthen Nikolai's will to fight.
