Chapter 2160: Layout Three
(page 1/1)
"It's going to happen!" Knor couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He knew that this time the Germans were going to liquidate Norway. The so-called flies don't bite seamless eggs. Norway’s own mistakes, well, or a mistake in judgment, so now, since the Norwegians have done the first grade of junior high school, and the Germans have done the fifteenth grade, you have nothing to complain about!
"We can correct our previous mistakes. We can immediately supplement the export volume of fish products this year, and no longer provide shipping lists to the UK, and no longer actively accept inspections by the Royal Navy. We will uphold the principle of neutrality." Kerner Er decisively confessed. "You should understand our difficulties as a small country. It is difficult for us to refuse the improper demands of some powerful countries. We cannot stand against Britain."
"Hehe, do you think the German Empire is too tolerant?" Ruprecht sneered, "To give an inappropriate example, when we were fighting a bandit, there was a man who was threatened by the bandit next to us." People helped our enemies, but when we were about to defeat this bandit, the victim wanted to simply stop confrontation in exchange for forgiveness. The laws of various countries will not let this kind of coercion be easily let go, Because, you are helping the evildoers! If you do something wrong, you must accept punishment. This is axiom!"
"As for the second half of what your Excellency said, I think it is an insult to the German Empire. I don't know if Norway is too jumpy, or the German Empire's saber is not sharp enough? So now Norway dares to offend the German Empire , but do not want to offend Britain? In this world, whether it is land, sea or air, almost trembling under the feet of the imperial army, you actually say such a thing? I don't know if it is my understanding, or your Excellency. Thinking problem?" Ruprecht sneered.
"That's not what I mean, Your Royal Highness, we just have to, have to." Kenar kept wiping the cold sweat on his head.
"Before it was a last resort, so now it's okay? Because the British Empire is about to end, so you want to get rid of the relationship?" Ruprecht did not relax, but continued to press on. "Severing ties is not as simple as just severing ties with the British. You need atonement and you need to pay a price! Believe me, just the previous compensation for shipping and fishing is a very huge number, for a population of only a few hundred It's a disaster for Norway."
After the outbreak of the war, many goods originally ordered by Germany to be transported by the Norwegian-American Shipping Company were detained or forced to buy by the British, and the Norwegian-American Shipping Company and the Norwegian insurance company as the shipping company had to pay compensation. It doesn't matter if you win, but it's a pity that the Allies are going to win now... So, this joke is a bit big!
"I still don't know what your country is worried about. Is it really difficult to choose between a sunset empire and a rising sun empire? Your country is worried about the retaliation of the British government, isn't it afraid of the retaliation of the German government? In fact, Now that the outcome of the war has been determined, even if the British were lucky enough to escape this disaster, what about the next time? Ten years later, the empire will be even stronger, and Britain does not even have a reliable ally. After surrendering and paying the price, the empire can accept it, so what worries does Norway have?"
"Well, let me be more straightforward. I actually don't want to use simple threats to solve problems. I always think that countries can use the exchange of interests to solve many things. But this kind of behavior may make people feel that I am a little Weak." After speaking, Ruprecht leaned forward slightly, forming a sense of oppression on the other party. Afterwards, the prince said word by word.
"In order to win the war, we will eventually enter Norway. The difference is that if your government is willing to cooperate with us, then after the war, Bavaria and the Austro-Hungarian Empire can continue to import iron ore and molybdenum from Norway. We can sign a treaty And if your government is not willing to cooperate, then we can replace a government, and then cooperate with those who are willing to cooperate with us. This is not only cooperation during the war, but also affects the economic development after the war. I hope You can think about it carefully."
"Time is very tight, I need to have an answer within a week." Ruprecht said.
"One week is too tight, we still have a lot to do." Knall said.
"Don't be so troublesome, we will tell you the location of our preset airport, and then we will arrange construction teams, equipment and personnel. We will establish a temporary airport as soon as possible. All materials are provided by the German Empire, and everything we need Everything from your country will be rewarded. You just need to keep silent, if you cooperate well, then the previous conflicts in our country will be wiped out." Ruprecht said.
On the issue of reconciliation with France, Ruprecht still dare not make easy decisions, but when facing a small country like Norway, the crown prince can still have the final say.
"Well, on behalf of Norway, I am willing in principle to have a better future with the German Empire." Knall knew that Norway had very few choices. With the determination of the Germans, Norway would always succumb. After all, Norway Must be on the side of the winner.
"Very well, the German Empire will send special personnel to discuss these matters with you, but now, we need your country to immediately provide the following airship berths as the first batch of bases for the Imperial Air Force to station. Before the personnel are stationed, we A number of ground troops need to be stationed first."
"So when does His Highness plan to start this plan?" Kenar asked.
"It's fine this afternoon!" Ruprecht replied very simply!
"Okay, I will follow your wishes." Kenar said helplessly.
Just when Norway finally gave in and chose to cooperate with Germany, Denmark, which had already cooperated with Germany, also took the most action. At least 4 air wing forces were deployed to Denmark, and the usefulness of these aircraft was to be transferred to Norway, the other part is used to ensure the air supremacy of the Skagerrak Strait. With these aircraft in the formation, the German fleet can choose to enter the North Sea from here. The concealment of the fleet is much stronger than entering the North Sea directly from Wilhelmshaven.
At the same time, under the cover of the German Western Front Air Force, a large number of German destroyers and minesweepers also entered the English Channel, began large-scale mine clearance operations, and made a gesture of preparing to forcefully sweep a passage in the strait !
