PS: The second more is sent, ask for ticket support!

........................................................................

January 5, Republic 2783 (1942). Han Kyung, Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"The French Third Republic is coming down!"

"The restoration of Napoleon III that we supported is in sight......"

"This time it's a big deal! And it's done!"

Lu Zhengxiang, Gu Weijun and a bunch of high-level officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are excitedly discussing the situation in France. This large-scale diplomatic mediation is something that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is very proud of, and it has given the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs a sense of pleasure in "taking the sun and the moon, shrinking a thousand mountains, and making fun of the world."

In the Franco-German Geneva Agreement, France pledged to renounce its claim to Alsace-Lorraine forever and to no longer claim it from Germany. In the history of the original time and space, the Alsace-Lorraine region was only seized by France from Germany after the First World War, including the Moselle provinces of Lorraine, Meerte Moselle, Vosges and Alsace's Haut-Bahne Rhine, with a total of 25,616 square kilometers.

However, the history of this plane is different, there is no "Treaty of Versailles", so it has always been controlled by Germany, but France has always made claims to this area, of course, it is just a mouthpiece. To put it fairly, Alsace-Lorraine is actually a German-speaking region, and 90% of the people here speak German. So France's claim to sovereignty here is also very reluctant.

So, strictly speaking, this time the French not only did not lose on their own soil, but also earned. Because Germany took Belgium out and shared it with the French, this is the entire Walloon region except for the province of Liège, and 12,982 square kilometers of land are assigned to France. The land was used as rent for the war on French territory.

Of course, the losses in the colonies were great, Morocco ceded to Italy, and French Libya, Niger, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire and Benin were ceded to Germany. There was also acquiescence in the occupation of the Central African Republic by Germany and the Soviet Union. Moreover, even the rest of West and North Africa will be difficult to keep, and now the United States and Britain have large troops stationed there. Of course, it will not be easy for the Germans to get these places, and they will have to compete with Britain and the United States.

In addition, the German military bases on the northern coast of France were not to be returned to France for the time being, and they wanted to use them to fight the British. Of course, these territories were already controlled by the Germans, and if they returned them later, the French would have no choice.

Under the mediation of China, the Germans were also willing to cooperate in the performance of a play as part of the rent. That is, the quiet withdrawal from Paris a few days ago made Napoleon VI perform a scene of the emperor's return. The Germans then left the French cities they had occupied, and were taken over by the royal armed forces, the French Salvation Army. And the officials of the Third Republic could only stare at this, they wanted to take it, but they didn't have an army in their hands. Originally, the armies of the southern front, under the operation of De Gaulle and other generals, were all grinding foreign workers and marching slowly. Often by the time they arrive at a city, the "French Salvation Army" has been "recovering it" for several days.

As a result, the supporters of Napoleon VI were rising at a terrifying rate. Judging from the current opinion polls, the restoration of the Third Reich in France is already nine times out of ten. Seventy percent of the army, seventy percent of the consortia, and sixty percent of the masses all support the restoration of the imperial system, and the rest of those who have not expressed their stance are also looking at the limelight, and the real die-hard loyalists of the republican government are only two or three kittens, and they have no power to return to the sky.

Today's French parliament is a sign that the majority of parliamentarians have passed a motion of no confidence in the government, and the republican government is almost finished.

"France now has a population of about 37.5 million and a land area of 628,000 square kilometers, while Spain has a population of about 26.4 million and a land area of 504,000 square kilometers. If the two countries were to merge, they would add up to a large country with a population of 64 million and a land area of 1,132,000 square kilometers......" Cavour said with a beaming face.

"It's a pity that the population is a bit small, and the population of Germany is almost twice as large as theirs...... Gu Weijun said.

"It doesn't matter, Germany is in the land of four wars, it is impossible for them to devote all their energy to dealing with France, and the Soviet Union in the east is not a peace-loving country......" Lu Zhengxiang touched his beard and said with a smile on his face: "Moreover, there are a lot of French and Spanish immigrants in the Americas, and they can also launch a return movement, especially France, where they have 10 million French Americans in the United States and Canada." Most of these people were supporters of the royal party, and they would be willing to return as long as Napoleon was restored......"

"With the Franco-Spanish Empire, the German Empire and the Soviet Union, the situation in Europe is basically balanced. Cavour nodded.

"Minister Card, how is His Majesty Napoleon going to repay us this time? Is it all the French Indian Ocean Islands?"

"Well, we have to add their Antarctic territory, which is Adelie's land. Of course, in order to save face for His Majesty the Emperor, these lands are nominally bought ......," Cavour said with a smile. "It's about 200 million Chinese dollars in total, and there's also a 5 billion Chinese dollars low-interest aid loan to help them rebuild. When they get the money, they use it to buy our products and services. Of course, not to the current government, this is the political achievement of our President Wen to His Majesty the Emperor, hahahaha......"

"Hahahaha......" everyone laughed.

This is the remuneration that China deserves.

The French did not have many islands in the Indian Ocean, and during World War I, France transferred the Seychelles and Mauritius Islands to China.

Now there are two large islands left, Reunion (2,512 km²) and Mayotte (374 km²). There are also 5 groups of islands in the central and northern Indian Ocean, namely Indian Cay, Europa, Glorious Islands, Juan de Nueva, and Tromelin. It has a total area of less than 39 square kilometers and has no permanent residents.

In the southern Indian Ocean, there is also a series of islands near Antarctica, including the Kerguelen archipelago (also known as the Isle of Sorrows, consisting of more than 300 islands, about 7,215 square kilometers), the Croze Islands (consisting of 20 islands, about 352 square kilometers), Amsterdam and São Paulo (about 61 square kilometers).

Together, these islands are about 10,553 square kilometers and the number of islands is about 400.

As for Adelli's Land, the territory of Antarctica claimed by France, this area is not small, covering an area of about 500,000 square kilometers, but it is not recognized by the countries of the world. This site is located in the tip of Antarctica near the Indian Ocean, and is mainly an ice sheet plateau. There are only penguins and posters on it, and a Frenchman has it.

However, after China gets this place, it is not afraid that other countries will not let it. Wen Desi is planning to get the whole of Antarctica in his hands, anyway, now that he has Oceania as a base, it is a matter of course to dye the Arctica. Moreover, the major powers have little interest in this glacial continent, and if China wants to occupy it, there will be no one who will not open their eyes to grab it. The big deal is to spend some money to buy it.

Yes, Antarctica is definitely not easy to develop here, and Wen Desi doesn't plan to develop it, there are still so many areas in the country that need to be developed, even if Antarctica is to be developed, it has to be put very far behind.

Wen Desi means to occupy it first and then talk about it, and now we should clarify our sovereignty first, and it would be good to set up a few inspection stations in normal times. When you don't use it, you can put it away, and when you want to use it, you can use it again, so as not to get involved with others.

According to Wendesi's plan for the near future, Antarctica is currently mainly providing aquatic resources and special "glaciers"! Yes, nothing else, it is the glaciers that can be found everywhere in Antarctica. These are the biggest resources that Antarctica has to offer in the near future.

As for why the glaciers, it's all for Oceania. As we all know, Oceania is very water-scarce, except for a few places such as the south and the eastern part of the Great Dividing Range, and other places such as the central and northwestern parts are starved of water to death. If you don't have water, you won't be able to do anything. So Wen Deji hit the idea to Antarctica.

He plans to carry out several mega projects in Oceania, with several artificial canals running through the interior of Oceania as the backbone, plus a water vapor network composed of various large and small water pipelines and hundreds of artificial lakes, which is the "Nanzhan Oasis Project".

The purpose of this mega project is to transform the climate of Oceania, which is mainly divided into two parts, the eastern project and the western project. The eastern project is to open several water vapor channels in the Great Watershed to increase precipitation in the Great Artesian Basin. In this way, the rainfall of the entire Artesian Plain will more than double, and there will be no more worries about river interruptions.

The other is the western project, which mainly transforms the desert in the central and northwestern regions. Because in central Australia, there are also central mountain ranges such as the MacDonnell Range and Musgrave Range, so if the water vapor channel is only opened, it can only increase the precipitation in the large artesian basin, but cannot improve the climate of the central and northwest by much.

This requires another approach, the construction of a series of artificial lakes in the deserts of north-central north-central China. A large artificial lake is built every few hundred kilometers, and a small and medium-sized artificial lake is built every tens of hundreds of kilometers, and the evaporation of the lake is used to create a relatively humid microclimate area. Relying on this method, the increase of inland water vapor, coupled with the 23rd century biological black science and technology achievements, so as to gradually improve the environment of Oceania step by step.

To build these lakes, a lot of water is needed, and it is simple to use seawater directly, but then the surrounding soil becomes saline. But if you use fresh water, the southeast of Oceania can't distinguish so much fresh water, and the continent of Antarctica has the most fresh water in the world. So he was going to use those glaciers to build several large marine reservoirs in southern Oceania and use large tugboats to haul the glaciers over. When the glacier arrives, the tugboat drives out, and then closes the sluice gates, draining the seawater inside, and when the iceberg melts, it's fresh water.

This fresh water is then pumped to the artificial lake, and in order to prevent evaporation on the way, these canals are made into closed underground canals, or underground pipe networks.
