PS: Last night's update at the starting point was actually delayed for another 6 hours, and the system was really drunk. Ask for tickets, please......

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

To put it bluntly, it is the predecessor of the familiar "United Nations."

During the First World War, some bourgeois peace groups in the United States actively advocated the creation of a body to mediate international disputes. U.S. President Wilson strongly endorsed this proposition and incorporated it into his "Fourteen Points" to advocate the establishment of such an organization as the League of Nations. In the history of the original time and space, although this organization was set up by the United States, because the Yankees were cried by Britain and France, they did not join this organization at all.

In later generations, although the "United Nations" was ridiculed as a "neighborhood committee," it was still able to play a positive role in international affairs to some extent. However, the "League of Nations" has no sense of existence, and this organization is referred to as the "League of Nations" and has no use in international affairs. It is the "League of Nations" that Chang Gong likes to say most in the history of the original time and space, after Chang Gong beat him violently in the book, "asking the League of Nations to intervene" and "asking the League of Nations to adjust", everyone should know how incompetent and wasteful it is.

It has many failures, first of all, many powerful countries did not participate, and the United States did not participate in the first place. Later, Italy and Japan withdrew because they were facilitated by their own aggression. The Soviet Union only joined in 1934 and was expelled during the Soviet-Finnish war. Secondly, its system design is quite "well", and all resolutions need to be unanimously agreed by all member states, yes, it is the "one-vote veto system", and democracy is in the grandmother's house. There is also the lack of permanent organizations, slow response to international affairs, and so on.

In short, this organization is just an ornament.

Of course, these above refer to the "League of Nations" in the original time and space, and the "League of Nations" in the original plane is different. At least in terms of popularity, it is much better than the original, and several major powers have joined. Of course, there is no need to think about how powerful it is, and I am afraid that it is more likely to become a tool than the original "League of Nations". The internal situation of the "League of Nations" on the plane is much more complicated, it was only manipulated by Britain and France, but now it is several forces, only China, the United States, Britain and Germany have something to tear apart.

Of course, this is a later story, at least for now, except for Wen Dehei, who knows the historical trend, everyone still has great hopes for this organization. The tragic World War was to beat the old Europe to the point that it didn't want to do it again. It would be nice to have such an international mediation organization.

Although Mr. Wen was not very optimistic about the prospects of this organization, he still put forward many useful suggestions, most of which were about the organizational situation and rules and regulations of the "United Nations" in the future.

When Wen Deji finished saying those suggestions, the heads of state and heads of state nodded one after another, and Turkey and other junior brothers were full of praise. At this time, British Prime Minister Lloyd George suddenly asked: "Your Excellency President Wen, the proposals you mentioned about setting up a permanent office of the League of Nations are very good, which can increase the efficiency of work and the speed of response to international affairs, but how to solve the problem of funding?"

"Of course, it is up to the individual Member States to pay. My preliminary suggestion is that the first contribution could be budgeted and then assessed on Member States. "In addition, I propose the establishment of a World Bank, in which the daily expenses of the League of Nations will be paid in advance by the World Bank, which will be settled semi-annually, and the expenses spent will be shared among the Member States. Of course, this is only part of the bank's functionality. It can assist in the economic revival and construction of member countries and encourage the exploitation of resources in underdeveloped countries through investment in productive undertakings. At the same time, it can assist member countries to improve their production capacity, promote the balanced development of international trade and the improvement of their balance of payments...... "Mr. Wen also threw out the idea of the "World Bank" by the way.

"Your Excellency the President, how will this proportion of contributions be determined?" asked the Belgian Prime Minister.

"I think it's fair to determine the share of each country based on its per capita disposable income......," said with a smile. The per capita killer is praise!

"It's not fair, the proportion should be determined by the total population of the country and the colonies!" The Italian prime minister immediately objected, anyway, their colonies were all lost, and the population was not large, so it was in their best interest to count them by population.

As soon as he heard this, Japan's Hara Kei quit doing it, and he said loudly: "This apportionment ratio should be determined by the country......'s total income." Although Japan's economic situation on the same plane is much better than that of the original time and space, compared with the middle powers of Europe and the United States, they are still poor, and their total income is not as good as that of some second-rate European countries such as Spain and the Netherlands.

Sure enough, no matter what, once it comes to money, it's not intimacy. The bigwigs of various countries who were still amicable just now suddenly blushed in the face, and no one wanted to be the wronged boss, and they all came up with the least amount of money and did the most things.

Seeing that the bigwigs of various countries "had frank conversations, fully exchanged views, and enhanced understanding among all parties," President Cox, as the host, stood up to play a round.

"The matter of the apportionment ratio can be discussed by professionals. We, the United States, can pay for the daily expenses of the League of Nations in advance......"

The United States is worthy of being a tyrant country, and Cox is ready to bag it himself with a wave of his hand. But Britain and Germany are not doing it again, and it is common sense to take whose money to do things for whom, and if you in the United States cover the expenses of the League of Nations, then what is this League of Nations doing things?

So they began to quarrel again, and the matter could not be supported by the majority no matter what standard was used, and finally they had to compromise with each other and come up with a standard of harmony, that is, according to the gross national product, population, per capita disposable income, and ability to pay of each country, and other factors, which were determined by a combination of factors.

In addition, in order to avoid too much or too little contribution by one country, there are also maximum and minimum assessment limits, the maximum assessment limit cannot exceed 25 per cent of the entire budget, and the minimum assessment cannot be less than 0. 001%。 Well, this article is suggested by Mr. Wen, and it is the standard of the United Nations that is copied from later generations.

In the end, the framework of this "League of Nations" was determined by the bigwigs, with China, the United States, Britain, Germany, France, Japan, Italy, and Austria serving as permanent members, and non-permanent members (each country taking turns to serve for a one-year term) from among the other member states. A two-thirds majority is required for the passage of major resolutions, and the P8 has a veto power. Basically, it is a weakened version of the "United Nations" of later generations, and of course it is much stronger than the original version of the "League of Nations".

The matter of the League of Nations has been finalized, but the "World Bank" mentioned by Mr. Wen has not been resolved. It's not that countries are not interested, but the interest is too great, and several major powers want to take the majority of the shares, and the proportion of allotments cannot be negotiated at all, and in the end it can only be stopped, at least in the near future. Wen Desi did not insist on it, he planned to establish a "People's Revolutionary Union Bank" after returning to the People's Revolutionary Union, and play by himself within the People's Revolutionary Union.

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

Beginning on March 15, the bigwigs of various countries who had negotiated the formation of the League of Nations returned home one after another, and the meeting on the naval treaty was still arguing. The atmosphere of this meeting was so warm that it was breathtaking, and I saw that "mouth cannons and bricks flew together, and saliva was the same color". I quarreled until April 21, and I copied it for more than a month, and then I had a plan that everyone could barely accept.

Due to the different international situation, the content of this treaty is also very different from the one in the original time and space. Compared with the "Washington Naval Treaty" in the original time and space, the treaty on this plane covers a larger scope, not only with the participation of several major powers, but also includes the vast majority of the world's major countries, of course, refers to sovereign states with access to the sea, and colonies and dominions without independence are not counted separately.

In addition, the content of this treaty has also increased a lot, not only restricting capital ships and aircraft carriers, but also restricting cruisers, destroyers, submarines, and other ships, which is actually equivalent to the synthesis of the "Washington Treaty" and the "London Treaty" in the original time and space.

First of all, there is the issue of the proportion of tonnage, and at present, China, the United States, Britain and Germany, which have the strongest naval strength, are in the first gear, with a ratio of 10. Japan, second only to the Big Four, is in second gear with a ratio of 7. Fayio is the third gear with a scale of 4. Brazil, Chile, Argentina, Russia and Turkey are in the fourth bracket with a ratio of 2. The other small countries are counted as the fifth tier, with a ratio of 1. In other words, the world's navies are now divided into five classes, and the scale ratio is 10:7:4:2:1.

This ratio issue is the most noisy among everyone, and most of the time is spent on it. In fact, many countries cannot use up the tonnage allocated according to this ratio. For example, in the history of the original plane, France and Italy did not use up their share until the end of the treaty. However, it is one thing whether this share is used or not, and whether it is used or not is another, and this is a big issue related to the face of the country, and all countries do not want to make concessions. It took a long time to barely reach this ratio. Of course, the main thing is that the eight big hooligans are arguing, and the little fart countries can't even enter the venue, they just need to listen to the results.

Then there are the tonnage limits for various types of ships, which are divided as follows: 1 million tons for capital ships (including battleships and battle cruisers), 500,000 tons for aircraft carriers, 400,000 tons for heavy cruisers, 400,000 tons for light cruisers, 100,000 tons for aviation cruisers, 300,000 tons for destroyers, and 150,000 tons for submarines. These tonnages are the share tonnage of the countries in the first tier, and the remaining countries receive their share according to their own grades. For example, Japan's share is 700,000 tons for capital ships, 350,000 tons for aircraft carriers, 280,000 tons for heavy cruisers, 280,000 tons for light cruisers, 70,000 tons for aviation cruisers, 210,000 tons for destroyers, and 10 for submarines. 50,000 tons.

By the way, among the big hooligans this time, the metric system is the most, China, Germany, Austria, Italy, France and Japan are still the same, only the United Kingdom is the British system, and the United States is half and half, and the British metric system is used. Therefore, the tonnage in this treaty refers to "metric tons", not "British tons".

This is followed by the definitions and regulations for various types of ships.

The specific provisions for capital ships are: The standard displacement of all newly built capital ships shall not exceed 45000 tons, and the main guns shall not exceed 420 mm (16. 5 inches). If it is exceeded, forget about what was made before. If it is not yet built, if the completion is higher than 50%, it can be continued to be built, but the main gun needs to be replaced. Those with a completion rate of less than 50% can be converted into aircraft carriers, but they need to occupy the share of aircraft carriers. Anything that exceeds the tonnage share must be decommissioned or dismantled.

In the end, China has been the capital ship and other countries' skins for a long time for the "Qingcheng-class super-standard heavy cruise", and in the end both sides gave up a step. China has replaced the main guns of the Qingcheng class with the heavy patrol level, and it will not be counted as the capital ship, and it will be counted as a heavy patrol.

The three main companies that exceeded the standard on the capital ships were the United States, Britain and Germany, and of course Niu Niu only had to retire the dreadnoughts before that vote to meet the standard. And although Germany has the largest tonnage of capital ships, they also have a lot of former dreadnoughts, old ships and second-hand ships of trophies, as long as these are decommissioned, they will almost meet the standard. It is the United States that really needs to be dismantled, they are all new ships, and more than 300,000 tons of dreadnoughts will have to be dismantled to meet the standard.

The regulations for aircraft carriers are: aircraft carriers must not have a displacement of less than 10000 tons and must not be equipped with a caliber of more than 210 mm (8. 3 inches) of naval guns. If the caliber of the ship's guns exceeds 155 mm (6. 1 inch), then the total number of all ship guns could not exceed 10 pieces. If the aircraft carrier does not carry a caliber of more than 155 mm (6. 1 inch), there is no limit to the number of naval guns. In all cases, anti-aircraft artillery and caliber did not exceed 130 mm (5. 1 inch) is not limited.

The standard displacement of a newly built aircraft carrier must not exceed 35,000 tons. Because China already has 4 ships 4. The 50,000-ton Liaoning-class aircraft carrier, so the United States, Britain and Germany can also build or rebuild 4 ships within their share4. For 50,000-ton aircraft carriers, Japan can build or rebuild 3 aircraft carriers within its quota, France, Italy and Austria can build or rebuild 2 aircraft carriers within its quota, and other countries can have 1.

The division of cruisers differs from the original history in that it is divided into three types: heavy cruisers, light cruisers, and aviation cruisers.

The standard platoon of heavy cruisers must not exceed 15000 tons, and the caliber of naval guns must not exceed 210 mm (8. 3 inches). The standard platoon of a light cruiser must not exceed 10000 tons, and the caliber of naval guns must not exceed 155 mm (6. 1 inch).

And the aviation cruiser is a product of compromise, and this kind of mongrel ship is available to the three major rogues, the United States, Britain and Germany, but China does not have it. And China has the so-called Zhengguo-class "amphibious landing ship", that is, "amphibious assault ship", and they do not have such a thing.

At the beginning, the countries demanded that the Zheng Guo-class be counted as an aircraft carrier, so that China's aircraft carrier would exceed the standard, of course China would not do it, and the fool would agree to it, and besides, this was not an aircraft carrier in the first place. So China proposed that you could also build similar ships, but other countries did not agree, they felt that this so-called "amphibious landing ship" was useless, it was purely the brains of the Chinese, and they were not interested at all.

After a few days of arguing, everyone reached a compromise. China's "amphibious landing ships" are included in the share of aviation cruisers, and other countries can build aviation cruisers, or they can build "amphibious landing ships" with such "brain holes", and they can not exceed the share. Therefore, the share of this aviation cruiser actually includes two types of warships, sharing a share.

As for the definition of an aviation cruiser, it is: no more than 1 in the standard row. 50,000 tons, which can carry no more than 6 210-mm naval guns, with a straight or semi-through deck. Because the total tonnage of China's 6 Zhengguo-class ships reached 10. 80,000 tons, and the single standard row also reached 1. 80,000 tons, both of which exceeded the standard, and as compensation, China promised not to install naval guns with a caliber of more than 130 mm on ships of this class.

Then there are destroyers, for which such warships are defined as having a displacement of no more than 3000 tons and a caliber of naval guns of no more than 130 mm (5. 1 inch).

Needless to say, the restrictions on submarines were definitely aimed at Germany, and the Entente, especially Niu Niu, was beaten to tears by Erdezi's submarines. The treaty stipulates that the standard platoon of newly built submarines of various countries cannot exceed 3500 tons, and the caliber of naval guns does not exceed 130 mm (5. 1 inch). But countries can have 6 large submarines with a standard row of no more than 5000 tons, but the caliber of naval guns must not exceed 155 mm (6. 1 inch).

According to the provisions of the treaty, there are two kinds of combat ships that are not restricted in any way, and they can play as they want. The first is that the caliber of the main gun does not exceed 105mm (4. 1 inch), warships with a standard row of no more than 1200 tons. The second is a standard platoon of more than 1200 tons, but not more than 3000 tons, and the main gun caliber does not exceed 76 mm (3 inches), the number of main guns does not exceed 4, and there are no torpedoes. The first type is frigates, and Britain, France, the United States, and Japan, which have had enough of the suffering of submarines, are opposed to such restrictions on ships. The second type mainly refers to coast guard or patrol vessels, which must also be restricted.

The tonnage and number of auxiliary ships such as supply, transportation, repair, and minesweeping are not subject to conditions, but the caliber of the main gun is required to be no more than 76 mm (3 inches), the number of main guns is not more than 4, and torpedoes cannot be installed. In addition, there can be no more than 2 water aircraft catapults, and there can be no function of landing ordinary carrier-based aircraft. Seaplane carriers are special ships, and the tonnage and number are not limited, which is similar to the requirements of the former, but there is also a restriction that cannot be a direct deck.

In addition, the treaty also stipulates that China, the United States, Britain, Germany, and Japan can convert two capital ships, four cruisers or destroyers, and two submarines into training ships, and they can not occupy their share of these ships. These surface ships had to remove all their armor, remove half of their main guns and all aviation and torpedoes, and reduce their speed to less than 18 knots. In addition, countries can have a training aircraft carrier with a tonnage of no more than 12,000 tons.

Warships that need to be scrapped in excess of the quota can be converted into target ships, but all weapons, fire control systems, and radio equipment need to be removed, and ships used as target ships and training ships will not be repaired for combat purposes.

The treaty finally stipulates the period for the replacement of ships by various countries, which is calculated from the time of official completion, and can only replace ships that are more than 18 years old in the quota. The Treaty was in force until 31 December 1936 and was automatically renewed for a period of two years if none of the signatories requested termination within two years prior to the expiration of the Treaty. It will automatically lapse after two years until a signatory country proposes to repeal it.

The Washington Naval Treaty was signed on April 25, 1921, and the plane entered the "Navy Holiday" phase. The opium cow can breathe a sigh of relief at most, and China, the United States, Germany and other countries are actually unwilling to continue the arms race after the war, and it is better to farm. The water aircraft catapult also cannot have the function of landing ordinary carrier-based aircraft. Seaplane carriers are special ships, and the tonnage and number are not limited, which is similar to the requirements of the former, but there is also a restriction that cannot be a direct deck.

In addition, the treaty also stipulates that China, the United States, Britain, Germany, and Japan can convert two capital ships, four cruisers or destroyers, and two submarines into training ships, and they can not occupy their share of these ships.
