2590 How much is a life worth?

 This is the electoral system that makes Europeans and Americans extremely proud. Candidates will do anything to win votes and make countless irresponsible promises, just to win the election.

As for whether it will be cashed out in the future and how much it will be cashed out, Schrödinger has to explain it.

From Winston's point of view, he does have reason to be confident that leading Britain to win two world wars has made him the greatest British man, no one can match him.

From Rock's point of view, Winston is in danger. If not enough attention is paid, Winston will definitely lose in the next election.

The bearded man would also point out that the time for the British general election happened to be during the Potsdam Conference, which meant that Winston could not stay in the country to preside over the overall situation and let Attlee perform.

"Ramsay Macdonald has proven that the Labor Party model is not suitable for the UK. The British will learn enough lessons from Macdonald. It is irresponsible for the UK to allow such a person to lead the UK." Wins

I used Ramsay Macdonald as an example, but it was seriously unconvincing.

The British Labor Party's approach may indeed not be suitable for the UK.

However, since Ramsay Macdonald was able to defeat the candidates of the Conservative and Liberal parties and become the British Prime Minister, it itself shows that the British have lost hope in the Conservative and Liberal parties.

Winston only saw the problems of the British Labor Party, but did not realize his own shortcomings. His consistent hostile attitude towards Russia has seriously affected Winston's image in the minds of the British.

Winston is a staunch anti-Russian, his attitude towards Russia has never changed and he is extremely hostile.

This attitude was nothing in the past. After all, Russia really squandered British money and caused real losses to the British Empire.

This attitude is not appropriate now.

The British are not stupid either. They are generally well-educated, which is relatively high in Europe.

Being highly educated means that you are not easy to fool, and you have a relatively strong ability to think independently. If you have paid a little attention to the process of World War II, you will know that Russia contributed much more to the world war than the United Kingdom.

It would be ungentlemanly to ignore Russia's contribution and slander Russia at this time.

What Rock couldn't say was that Britain was now not only lagging behind Russia, but also behind southern Africa and the United States. This was precisely the reason why the vast majority of British people were dissatisfied with Winston.

The relationship between the United Kingdom and Southern Africa and the United States is like relatives. I hope you live well, but you cannot live better than me.

Seeing that the former colony is now turning into clouds and rain, the British lament their misfortune and are angry about it. Who should bear this responsibility?

There is no doubt that it is still Winston.

Who made you the British Prime Minister?

Seeing that Winston was so confident, Rock just stopped.

It's not good to say too much of this kind of thing, as it might make Winston think that Rock is interested in the British general election.

Potsdam is the capital of Brandenburg, located on the Havel River, 27 kilometers southwest of Berlin. During the period of Frederick the Great, it was the royal residence and the cultural and military center of Prussia. Its status is almost equal to that of other countries.

During the Battle of Berlin, Mustache was always in Berlin, leaving Potsdam undefended. As a result, the small town was miraculously preserved, with most of the buildings intact.

Regardless of whether Attlee's promise is effective or not, Big Beard's promise is still very effective.

After promising to assist civilians in Berlin, Russia airlifted 96,000 tons of grain, 60,000 tons of potatoes, 50,000 livestock, as well as sugar, oil and other food.

When Rock and Winston arrived, many supplies were piled up next to the airport runway before they could be transferred.

It should be noted that before the Potsdam Conference, the United States and Southern Africa had stopped material assistance to Russia.

"Russia's ability to recover is amazing. Sometimes I really envy Russia's ability to mobilize, if--" Winston was half-sentence.

Rock understood exactly what Winston meant.

Winston's character is anti-Russian, so even if Russia has advantages, Winston cannot envy it.

Berlin is still under the control of Russia. It can be seen that many ruins have not had time to be cleared, so the convoy can only choose to bypass the city of Berlin and cannot go deep.

"We should be more worried about Russia's influence. In France and Italy, organizations supported by the Communist International have gained dominant positions, and the situation is not good." Roque used the situation in France and Italy to remind Winston to pay attention to Britain.

Winston did not hear the implication of Roque's words and was very disdainful of France and Italy: "The French and Italians are useless. They have no qualifications to become a victorious country and should be tried together with the Germans."

What Winston is mainly talking about is that France, at least the Free France led by de Gaulle, has now clearly obtained the status of a victorious country and is eligible to participate in the distribution of interests after the war.

Let’s not talk about whether we get more or less. The French are lucky to be able to sit at the negotiating table.

The Italians are a bit unlucky. Although the Italians also want to bet on both ends of the road like the French, Italy lacks a far-sighted person like de Gaulle and has not done enough thoroughly.

"There is nothing to be happy about becoming a victorious country. The Germans are simply unable to pay post-war reparations, and their hope of making up for their losses with post-war compensation has come to nothing." This is the reason why Roque does not want to fight.

The era of golden gold with the sound of a cannon has passed. In the last world war, the flames of war did not reach Germany, and Germany still had the ability to bargain.

This time, Mustache put all his bets, and Germany fought until the oil was exhausted. The Allies could not squeeze out much oil even if they dug three feet into the ground.

"If we can't compensate, then let the Germans become slaves forever." Winston was ruthless and refused to give Germany a chance to make a comeback.

The convoy sped along and soon arrived in Potsdam.

Potsdam has a complex of palaces built during the era of Frederick the Great, of which the Sanssouci Palace and the Forsaken Palace are the most famous. The Cecilienhof Palace, where the Potsdam Conference was held, was the last palace built by the German royal family.

It was built by Kaiser Wilhelm II from 1913 to 1917 for the Crown Prince and Crown Princess, so the palace was named after the Crown Princess, Princess Ceciline.

Cecilinehof Palace is designed in the style of a British country house, with a total of 176 rooms. On March 21, 1933, Mustache shook hands with the then German President Marshal Hindenburg here. This scene symbolized the emerging power and appearance of Germany.

The alliance of the Christian nobles.

Twelve years later, leaders of the Allied countries gathered in this small town again to discuss how to punish Germany.

Based on European habits, there was a welcome reception as usual before the meeting, and the bearded man presided over it as a host.

Before the reception started, Rock had a brief exchange with Truman, who arrived in Potsdam early.

Before this, Truman and Big Beard had already communicated, so when Rock saw Truman, Truman was not in a high mood and frowned.

"What happened?" Rock was not polite and asked about private topics.

Truman also had a lot of troubles during this time.

The two most popular people in the United States have openly expressed their desire for Whitehall. Truman is under great pressure and is far less relaxed than Roosevelt when facing the election.

Roosevelt's status in the United States was similar to that of Rock in southern Africa. As long as Roosevelt ran for election, others would have no chance.

Truman's political career was not a smooth one. He became the president of the United States entirely because of Roosevelt's unexpected death. When facing Eisenhower and MacArthur, Truman was not sure of victory.

"Everything is normal!" Truman would definitely not communicate candidly with Rock. They had no personal relationship.

"Are there any excessive demands over there?" Rock changed the subject to the bearded man.

After the Tehran Conference, Big Beard's demands became more and more excessive. The Allies on the Western Front chose to give in in order to strengthen Big Beard's determination to resist.

We had to give in. At that time, Big Beard and Germany were still in constant contact. If the two countries reached an agreement, the situation would be extremely bad.

Now that Germany has been defeated and surrendered, although Russia's military strength has reached its peak, the threat level has also plummeted because of Germany's withdrawal, which gives the Western Front Allies room for negotiation.

"It's just an unrealistic fantasy -" Truman laughed it off. This was his first formal meeting of allied leaders.

In all the previous meetings, Roosevelt was the one who represented the United States. As Vice President, Truman had to stay in the United States to prevent any unexpected events.

At President Roosevelt's funeral, Truman witnessed the greed of the Russians for the first time.

There were so many people attending the reception. The bearded man gave a welcome speech as a host. Rock, Winston, and Truman also delivered speeches respectively. The leaders of other countries did not even get a chance to speak, which gave Rock a reason.

I suspect that, like the Paris Conference after the end of the last world war, Potsdam is once again dividing the spoils behind closed doors.

The reality is similar to what Rock predicted. In the Cecilienhof Palace, only Rock, the bearded man, Winston, and Truman have dedicated offices and conference rooms, and it is these four countries that dominate the meeting.

Not surprisingly, on the first day of the meeting, Big Beard once again proposed that Russia own the entire Germany, on the grounds that only Russia can completely transform Germany.

After the last world war, Russia did not participate in the transformation of Germany. Facts have proved that the transformation of Germany by Britain and France was extremely unsuccessful. Big Beard made this point unabashedly during the meeting.

Since you cannot complete the transformation of Germany in your way.

So this time let’s switch to Russia!

Winston and de Gaulle had nothing to say about the outcome of the Paris Conference.

Rock and Truman had something to say.

Russia did not participate in the Paris Conference, but Southern Africa and the United States also had little sense of presence. At that time, Southern Africa was still a member of the Commonwealth and was not qualified to make independent demands. The United States directly gave up its claim for compensation against Germany.

This is really not the generosity of the United States, but the Americans know very well that even if the United States makes a request, it is simply impossible to realize it given Germany's situation at the time. Even if Germany has the ability to compensate, it must first pay to the United Kingdom and France. The United States, right?

Wait, then.

In this case, it is better to be generous and give up directly. Anyway, the United States has made a lot of money through trade during the war, and the American capitalists are very satisfied.

The appetite is slowly developed. Last time the United States was able to give up compensation, but this time the United States' attitude is very firm.

At least Big Beard is right about one thing.

Now that Britain and France have proven themselves to be incapable of doing so, they should indeed change their approach.

But it’s not like what Big Beard said, it’s Russia that will transform Germany, it’s the United States.

Or the United States, Russia, and Southern Africa come together.

"Germany has caused serious harm to all allied countries, so it should be Germany that apologizes to all of us, not a certain country." Winston also knew that the British Empire was no longer strong. Since it could not make rules, he might as well just give up the water.

Stir it up, bring in as many countries as possible, and enter the UK's best mode of fishing in troubled waters.

In other words, it's the shit-stirring mode.

"Our goal is to completely eradicate Germany's war capabilities. At the same time, we also know that Germany's situation is very complicated, so how can we ensure that we can achieve our goals with a single model?" Rock also disagreed,

The starting point is different from Winston's.

Winston wanted to fish in troubled waters, while Rock wanted to rule across the river and limit future confrontations to Germany, so as to at least ensure the safety of the Mediterranean.

"Russia proved through the world war that we have the ability to completely transform Germany and do not need other countries to intervene." The bearded man said in a tough tone, which did not save Roark any face.

That's understandable too.

In the past, Big Beard had a good attitude towards Roque because Russia needed assistance from southern Africa and could not directly turn against him.

Now Southern Africa has stopped military aid to Russia. Non-governmental material exchanges are conducted in the form of trade and can be stopped at any time.

During the two decades between the two world wars, southern Africa and Russia had almost no exchanges, and Russia was doing pretty well.

Therefore, no matter how high-quality and low-price Southern African goods are, Big Beard still has the confidence to refuse them. Russia itself is a self-sufficient country, and losing Southern African goods is not the end of the world.

So now Big Beard's attitude is getting tougher and tougher when facing Rock.

"But is this fair to other countries?" Luo Ke was hiding something.

Roque's words may not sound powerful, but they are actually a decisive blow to Russia.

The expansion of influence that Big Beard hopes to achieve is based on "fairness."

Regardless of whether it can be done or not, according to Russian propaganda, Russia is the fairest country and treats everyone equally both internally and externally.

Monopolizing Germany would be unfair to other countries.

"What Russia received cannot match Russia's contribution in the war." Big Beard emphasized fairness, and the payment and reward must be reasonable.

"The same is true for us in southern Africa." Roque is waiting for the bearded man here. The contribution of southern Africa is no less than that of Russia, and is even more quantifiable.

How much is an appropriate amount for a human life?

Southern Africa spends all its money clearly, especially a lot of it goes to Russia.
