Everyone who leaves the earth will still be transferred. Therefore, the president will not affect the normal progress of the meeting when he enters the hospital.

Without Robert, there could be Libert and Lanbert, and throw a person from the French delegation at will, and the script can continue to be performed.

Although the camera records everything that happened in the venue, it still does not exist to pursue the murderer.

Those who take action are representatives of various countries, each of whom has diplomatic immunity, and it involves more than 20 countries, and it is impossible to pursue the matter!

Ignore the French protests and invite representatives who participated in the violent operation to leave the conference room, and the matter will be over.

...

"No, this treaty is too harsh and has exceeded France's ability to bear it. We requested modifications.

We can accept the cedes of some colonies, but the clause of cedes in the land must be deleted; war reparations are acceptable, but the amount of reparations must be reduced; punishment of war criminals can be done, but the list of war criminals is not in line with reality and must be re-established.

…”

After changing people, the French delegation performed much more normally. It can be seen that in addition to President Robert, who took the blame, the Paris government also sent a professional negotiating team.

"Mr. James, it always comes at a price to do something wrong. Your country has provoked this crazy war. Do you still want to be irresponsible now?"

In international negotiations, the interests of small countries are the easiest to be sacrificed. Although agreements have been reached within the anti-French alliance, as long as the formal treaty is not signed, it is possible to recur.

Belgium paid a great price in this war, and the trophy he received was also quite expensive. In order to put the interests on the treaty as soon as possible, Prime Minister Jur, as the representative of Belgium, had to act as a vanguard.

James shook his head and replied seriously: "No, I'm just stating a fact.

The war compensation of 80 billion ASCH, calculated based on the interest rate of 5% of the 1,000, is as high as 400 million ASCH.

Not to mention now, even before the war, France's fiscal revenue in a year is less than 400 million Aegis. Selling France is not enough, so what can you ask us to repay?

No great nation can tolerate the division of the country, and France is no exception. We cannot accept all the terms of cede the land.

If you want to forcefully cede land, then there will be no peace on the European continent."

"I can understand, is this a threat?"

Juer asked tit-for-tat. Today is different from the past. The hatred of France has penetrated into the bone marrow. Offending the French is not a problem at all. On the contrary, not taking the opportunity to weaken France is the real danger.

James repeated in a very firm tone: "No, I'm just stating a fact!"

Despite the threat, it is still impossible to publicly admit it. Breaking aside can indeed cause trouble to the anti-French alliance, but France is the one who suffers greater losses.

If you anger the anti-French alliance and give them a cruel thing, France will really have no future.

The only thing you can rely on now is that the anti-French alliance wants to stop losses. At this time, the war is going to continue, and you cannot get greater benefits. Only by closing as soon as possible can you maximize your benefits.

If France really is gone, not only will the war reparations be lost, but even the anti-French alliance will die.

Without alliances, it is not as simple as Austria's efforts to dominate the European continent.

Without the threat from the French, Switzerland, Belgium, Spain, and the Italian states would not be as obedient as they are now.

In a sense, Austria was copying the routines of the Americans after World War II in the original time and space, using the Soviet threat to tie European countries to their own ships. When the hegemony was consolidated, it kicked off the Soviets.

This is an open conspiracy. As a neighbor, there is no one who doesn’t want to divide France. However, due to their own strength, they really can’t bear it. In this context, everyone has to rely on Austria.

Seeing that the scene might be out of control, Wesenberg said slowly: "Mr. James, you can't afford to pay or accept it. That's your country's problem. The losses caused by war are so great, and you should bear this responsibility.

Of course, we will also consider the actual situation and formulate reasonable compensation standards.

The world is developing, and we must look forward to it. If you can’t afford to pay now, it means you can’t afford to pay in the future.

Since the industrial age, the wealth created by human beings has grown geometrically. Although 80 billion ASUS is a lot, I believe in your country's capabilities."

Bargaining is a must, and everyone knows that France cannot afford the compensation of 80 billion ASUS. Without depreciating ASUS, no country can afford this huge sum of money.

The so-called future repayment is not calculated, but there is no problem. Unfortunately, this is compound interest calculation, and the cumulative interest rate is astonishingly large.

Fiscal revenue is linked to economic development. If you want to outperform interest, the economic growth rate cannot be lower than 7 points.

The Second Industrial Revolution is still continuing, and the economic growth rate of all countries is unsatisfied. If you work hard for seven points, there is no hope. But there is something called "economic crisis" in this world.

If a person has no hope, he will give up on himself. It is the same for the country. He will work for others all his life and see no reward. No one will be tired of it.

If the French want to work hard to pay back the money, they must leave hope, so the debt can be negotiated, but there is no need to discuss ceniting land.

All of them have been eaten by various countries, and if you want everyone to vomit it out again, it is impossible to do it at the negotiating table.

James bowed politely and analyzed with a self-deprecating style: "Thank you for your trust, but you really overestimate us. If France is so powerful, I wouldn't have appeared here.

The French colonial empire had collapsed, the Italian region became independent again, our land was hit hard by war, and the economy was on the verge of collapse.

France's comprehensive national strength is no more than one-third of the previous war. The domestic mess alone is enough for us to work hard.

Within twenty years, we can restore our economy to pre-war levels, which is God's blessing.

Numbers will not lie. France’s annual fiscal revenue will not exceed 50 million ASUS. Even domestic expenditures are not enough, so what should I pay for compensation?

No matter how much compensation is, if you can't get it, it will be just an illusory number and has no value at all."

The tone is sincere and the content is full of practical things. France is indeed a mess now.

The interdisciplinary government, hungry people, local powerful people who oppose the revolutionary government, millions of troops of the anti-French alliance, and huge compensation in negotiations are all problems facing the Paris government.

Any chaos in any place may lead to the collapse of the new Paris Revolutionary Government.

In fact, if the anti-French alliance army had not suppressed the local area, France would have been in chaos long ago.

A chaotic France is definitely not in the interests of all parties. Not only can the compensation be obtained, but more importantly, chaos equals variables.

Heroes may not be produced in troubled times, but heroes are certain. If a military genius similar to Napoleon appears again, it will be another new continental war.

"Mr. James, we have considered these issues. After the war, your country only needs to pay 30 million ASUS in one lump sum, and the remaining debts are paid in installments later.

From 1893 to 1895, your country only needs to pay 10 million ASUS a year; from 1896 to 1900, it will increase the compensation of 1.5 million ASUS a year; from 1901 to 1910, it will increase the compensation of 3 million ASUS a year..."

The increasing compensation year by year, when will the debt be paid off? God can only answer it. Anyway, the provider of Wesenberg's plan does not know.

The only advantage is that the amount of compensation is within the scope of the French government. As long as the Paris government saves money, such as: laying off troops and reducing administrative expenses, it can be paid.

As if thinking of the terrifying consequences, James hurriedly protested: "No, with such a payment method, we will not be able to repay our debts in another hundred years.

The responsibility of our generation cannot be imposed on the next generation, and they have no obligation to assume this responsibility that does not belong to them."

...

Since the drama has begun, it must continue. In the face of interests, both the representatives of France and the representatives of the anti-French alliance are fighting for justice.

As the scene became popular, representatives of countries who were witnesses gradually became lubricants, as if they were doing their best to reconcile conflicts among all parties.

I can only say that everyone is an excellent actor, and even if you have never read the script, you can still hold on to the lines.

The quarrel lasted for more than a month, but it was still not possible to reach an agreement. It was not until the custodian, President Robert, was discharged from the hospital that the verbal battle came to an end.

Throwing the treaty drafted by the Anti-French Alliance on the ground, Robert questioned with a sad look: "Mr. James, is this what you have achieved these days?"

The ceasing of territory has basically not changed, the colonies must have been completely gone, and the local area to be ceased has not shrunk. The only valuable change is the reduction of compensation.

The reduction from 80 billion to 40 billion is seemingly shrinking by half, and there is no change in essence. The Paris Revolutionary Government still cannot afford to pay.

Compared with the initial treaty, the biggest change was the list of war criminals. Finally, the main leaders of the revolutionary party were taken down from above and replaced by the top leaders of the exiled government.

Unfortunately, this has no substantial meaning. The exiled government has long been away from home. Except for Napoleon IV who is still bubbling openly, the rest of the people have changed their identities and cannot be caught at all.

The revolutionary government has just obtained power, and no matter how much the blame is, it is impossible for them to bear war crimes. The anti-French alliance is also rule-based. Even if the leaders of the revolutionary party go to the court of war, they will be acquitted in the end.

The revolutionaries avoided the money, but the financial backers were unable to escape. Consortiums, arms dealers, bankers, other big capitalists, and the guys who were attacked by Napoleon IV were once again targeted by the anti-French alliance.

In general, they did not wrongly accuse them. This war was indeed inspired by them. It is completely reasonable to define it as a war criminal.

Although they dragged the French government in the war and made outstanding contributions to the anti-French alliance winning the war, who made them too fat?

Napoleon IV just confiscated the cash from their hands, a large amount of mines, factories, and real estate in their hands, and this little man controlled at least half of France's wealth.

The members of the Anti-French Alliance are basically extremely poor. How can you let go of such huge wealth?

It is impossible to get all of them. It is always possible to get some of them to make up for your own losses in the war.

The Allies stationed in France took action early. Except for some lucky ones who escaped, the rest of the guys just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth.

There are only two ways before them, either hand over a considerable amount of money to buy life, or go to the court of war.

For politicians, the value of these financial backers has been greatly reduced from the moment the revolution is successful. If the Anti-French Alliance can help kill these guys, many people will be secretly happy.

After all, France's plate is already very small. If these vested interests are solved, how can the latecomers rise?

Of course, President Robert does not include this. In his opinion, this is betraying his comrades and is a very immoral act.

James shook his head: "His Excellency President, no one wants to do this, but we have to face reality.

The anti-French alliance issued the final record, and if we refuse to sign the treaty, the revolutionary government will have no value of existence. They will control France and perform government responsibilities on behalf of the government.

At the meeting, the Russian representative also proposed a proposal for zoning occupation. If we go that point, France will become their colony."

"No value of existence" does not mean dissolution. If it is true that the Paris Revolutionary Government will become a stumbling block when it is occupied by France in the zodiac.

The stumbling block is about to be kicked away, and the revolutionaries started their business again. If they don’t kill them, they will not be able to sleep!

When the butcher knife was raised, the Paris Revolutionary Government could not be hardened. Except for President Robert, the scapegoat, everyone else was ready to compromise first.

President Robert, who had a weak position, was shaken again and asked with concern: "Can Congress agree?"

Robert respects Congress very much as he thinks he is a democratically elected president. Being able to elect him, a president who is worried about the country and the people, is enough for the French Congress to be...

Facing President Robert with a worried face, James still felt a little reluctant, but in the end he still had the upper hand. If he didn't die, someone would always take the blame.

"His Excellency President, when you were injured, Congress had sent a telegram. But in order to help you recover from the wound, I took the initiative to detain it.

The anti-French alliance army is doing its own thing at home, and the people are living in dire straits. The pressure is very high in China. The most important thing is to send these garrisons away."
