At the end of August, William III boarded a plane from Coconut City and returned to Germany with a heavy harvest. 23us.

That's right, it's an airplane. Thanks to the successful development of Kangaroo, traveling from Lanfang to Germany no longer has to float on the sea for nearly two months. You can arrive directly by airplane.
Of course, you still have to stop for refueling along the way, and you don’t have to land at an airport in another country. You fly from Coconut City to Moon Bay, then from Moon Bay to the Persian Gulf, and then briefly stop in Damascus, and then...
Can fly directly to Berlin.
These days, airplanes are not safe enough to fly at night, so the takeoff and landing of the airplane must be done during the day, so the journey to William III takes about four days.
It still sounds like a long time, but compared with before, it's already a huge improvement.
William III's visit to Lanfang was really fruitful. The personal relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and William III is displayed here. When Lanfang was founded, William III helped Lanfang a lot no matter what the reason was.
, now that it's time for Lan Fang to repay Germany, Qin Zhiyuan is not stingy either.
Qin Zhiyuan and William III signed three agreements. The first one is about the economic and trade cooperation between Germany and Lanfang. Lanfang will help Germany rebuild its industrial system and provide Germany with necessary manpower, machinery and technical assistance. Germany will do this.
The price paid was the recognition of Lanfang's possession of islands such as the Caroline Islands, Marshall Islands, Mariana Islands, etc.
In fact, these islands are now part of Lanfang's territory. After the World War, Germany, as a defeated country, lost ownership of these islands, and these islands were transferred to Japan. After the war between Lanfang and Japan, these islands were transferred to Japan as compensation.
Lan Fang.
Don't think that this promise doesn't matter. There are always voices in Germany calling for the overthrow of the Versailles Treaty. Although William III is not ready to overturn the Versailles Treaty now, this contract will almost certainly be overturned in the future. Without this commitment, by then,
There will be disputes over the ownership of these islands.
With the current relationship between Lanfang and Germany, it would be better to eliminate this hidden danger as soon as possible.
The second agreement was about Lanfang's economic assistance to Germany. Although Lanfang decided to participate in the Dawes Plan, the plan would definitely end in vain, so Lanfang also had his own aid plan for Germany.
According to Qin Zhiyuan's plan, Lanfang will provide Germany with material support equivalent to approximately 2 billion Lanfang coins in the next five years. These materials are mainly food and industrial raw materials, including natural rubber, petroleum and steel, which are in short supply.
of military supplies.
This material aid is not free. According to the agreement signed between Lanfang and Germany, Germany will gradually repay the money after ten years. Of course, for the sake of William III, there is no interest on the money and it is regarded as an interest-free loan.
The third agreement is about military cooperation, and this agreement is what Qin Zhiyuan and William III value most.
In fact, after the World War, Qin Zhiyuan and William III had a verbal agreement on military cooperation. At that time, Germany was not allowed to retain its air force and navy. The number of the army was limited to 100,000, and more soldiers had to be forced
Retired.
William III definitely didn't want to see those outstanding soldiers retire from active service, so he cooperated with Lan Fang.
In the agreement between William III and Qin Zhiyuan, the German Wehrmacht will join the Lanfang army in regiment units and become part of the Lanfang Foreign Legion. While fighting for Lanfang, it will also preserve military fire for Germany.
.
It has been more than five years since the original agreement was reached. During these five years, three batches of approximately 200,000 German troops have served in the Lanfang Foreign Legion. These Germans are widely distributed among Lanfang's navy, land and air forces.
, even the latest airborne troops have a German regiment.
This was a win-win agreement, and Germany retained the firepower of its army. Some Germans were trained in Lanfang's army. While fighting for Lanfang, the Germans also learned Lanfang's advanced combat concepts and were exposed to more advanced concepts.
There are many new tactics and weapons, which is what William III values most.
Lanfang also benefited greatly from this. When Qin Zhiyuan and William III made a verbal agreement, Qin Zhiyuan asked William III to make a promise. If any Germans asked to take Lanfang nationality during their service, the German government would
Barriers cannot be set up, and convenience must be provided for these soldiers and their families to successfully obtain Lanfang citizenship.
Although William III was dissatisfied with this, he still agreed to Qin Zhiyuan's request out of overall considerations.
There is nothing wrong with Germans joining Lanfang nationality. It may cause Germany to lose part of its population. But at the same time, if these people join Lanfang nationality, it will also deepen the friendship between Lanfang and Germany. Compared with the loss of population, this
It has brought more benefits to Germany.
The performance of Lanfang soldiers in the World War left a deep impression on William III. William III was unwilling to be an enemy of Lanfang from the bottom of his heart. He even fantasized in his heart more than once that if Germany could join forces with Lanfang,
So whether it is the British or the Americans, William III is confident that he can win.
The signing of the military cooperation agreement was equivalent to putting the original oral agreement between Qin Zhiyuan and William III on paper. The price William III paid for this was not to set up obstacles for Lan Fang to immigrate from Germany, and the price Lan Fang had to pay was to
While preserving the fire for the German army, we must help Germany rebuild its military-industrial system at the appropriate time and provide Germany with a certain degree of technical assistance.
This assistance is of great significance. There is currently almost no military industry in Germany. Therefore, the German military industry giants came up with the idea of substituting their own advantages and opening arsenals to Czechoslovakia and Poland, which are close to Germany.
Although the arsenal was rebuilt, Germany's military industry strength at this time had been greatly lost, especially in the field of scientific research. Because of Lanfang's predatory relocation, Germany had lost almost all of its scientific research strength. Therefore, Germany now has a comprehensive range of capabilities in the military industry.
It lags behind Lanfang, especially in the engine field.
After the World War, the Versailles Treaty stipulated that Germany was not allowed to conduct engine research, especially aero-engines. Germany was not even allowed to have aircraft factories, even for the production of civilian aircraft. This resulted in Germany's aero-engine level currently remaining at the level of the World War.
stage, and even regressed.
Lanfang has made rapid progress in aviation since the World War. Compared with the World War period, Lanfang's aero engines have been replaced for two generations, from the single-exhaust cold radial engine used on the original Falcon to the current Kangaroo.
Using a dual-exhaust cold radial engine, Lanfang has made rapid progress in aero-engines. The current aero-engine power is more than double that of the World War period, and due to the optimization of the aerodynamic shape, the overall performance of the aircraft is beyond this era.
Fighters of all other countries.
William III was envious of Lan Fang's progress on the plane. Especially after seeing the performance of kangaroos, William III was very interested in kangaroos. If it were not for the restrictions of Britain and France, William III would have wanted to order a batch of kangaroos now.
.
In fact, kangaroos don't mean much to Germany. Germany is only separated from its biggest enemy, the United Kingdom, by a sea. The straight-line distance is only six to seven hundred kilometers. If a German plane departs from Hamburg, even Northern Ireland, the farthest place, is no more than a mile away.
It is about 1,100 kilometers away. Even if the German Air Force is only equipped with Falcons, the attack range can cover the entire UK.
This also made William III deeply feel that he was born at the wrong time. If Germany could have had bombers like Kangaroos or even Falcons during the world war, the outcome of the world war would have been completely different.
Qin Zhiyuan thought about this quite openly. Time cannot be turned back. The world war has passed. If there is time to reminisce, it is better to start working hard now. Don't wait until the next world war is over and regret the slack now.
William III agreed very much with Qin Zhiyuan's words, so William III was determined to tie Germany to Lanfang's chariot. Even if Lanfang went to war with the British now, even if Germany was in dilapidated state, William III would be ready to sell iron.
An army also fought side by side with Lanfang.
There is no need to be so tragic as selling iron. As long as Qin Zhiyuan allows the German team in Lanfang Foreign Legion to return to Germany, Germany will immediately have a strong national defense force. Not to mention that it can compete with the United Kingdom, at least around Germany, Germany will still be the one.
Strong Germany.
In fact, Germany's geographical environment is quite good. If you look at the map, you will know that there are only two slightly larger countries around Germany, France and Poland. Other countries such as Belgium, if this country did not have the support of the French and British, Germany would have been there long ago.
Belgium was annexed during World War I.
Others, such as the Netherlands and Switzerland, are basically permanently neutral countries and simply do not dare to participate in the struggle for hegemony on the European continent.
Another example is Austria and Czechoslovakia, which were countries that emerged after the disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. When the Austro-Hungarian Empire existed, they had always maintained friendly relations with Germany, so these two countries did not pose much of a threat to Germany.
Finally there are France and Poland.
In fact, these two countries do not pose much of a threat to Germany. Although the French still showed their old imperialist heritage during the World War, the World War also broke the French's backbone. Now France has less than fifty
With an army of tens of thousands, the combat effectiveness is not the same as during the World War.
As for Poland, this country is a joke. The most powerful force in Poland now is the cavalry, with a number of less than 50,000. This military unit, which has been proven to be declining in the world war, is now the main force for Poland to defend its country.
The consequences of relying on such strength to defend the country can be imagined.
While the Poles were still immersed in the glory of the hussars and unable to extricate themselves, right next to Poland, Belarus, controlled by Stalin, had developed quietly.
Stalin was also miserable. After the World War, due to the rise of Lanfang, Russia became divided. Most of Siberia was divided into northern Xinjiang by Lanfang. Kolchak's coalition government occupied most of the remaining land and was under the influence of Stalin.
The areas controlled are only the Republic of Lithuania, Belarus, and part of Ukraine.
In order to counter the pressing Kolchak, Stalin chose to move closer to the British. With the support of the British, Stalin barely controlled the defense line from Smolensk to Bryansk.
Lanfang's original agreement with Kolchak was limited to Red Russia and did not include the European part. Therefore, after capturing St. Petersburg, Lanfang's troops had withdrawn to the northern Xinjiang. This resulted in Kolchak's offensive being weak and his troops advancing to Smooth.
Lensk can no longer advance further behind the front line.
Although Stalin was able to withstand Kolchak's attack, he was unable to counterattack.
The British were still wary of Stalin. Although Britain provided assistance to Stalin, the assistance was not large. Stalin lacked heavy weapons, so it was not easy for Stalin to counterattack.
Stalin was a typical example of Great Russian chauvinism. The gene for expansion existed in Stalin’s bones. Being trapped in a corner of Belarus was definitely not what Stalin wanted. Therefore, unable to move north, Stalin could only develop in other directions.
At the end of last year, a revolution broke out in Estonia under the control of Yudenich. Yudenich himself was killed in the rebellion. The Estonian government randomly announced that it would merge with the Lithuanian Republic of Belarus and become a part of Stalin's control.
At this point, the only country next to Belarus besides Ukraine is Poland, and with the support of the French behind Ukraine, Stalin will not dare to move for a while, so the direction of Belarus' expansion can only be Poland.
In October 1923, Stalin mobilized 200,000 Belarusian troops and launched a brazen attack on Poland.
In the face of the Belarusian attack, the Poles did not show weakness. Within two months, Polish President Józef Piłsudski expanded the Polish army to 600,000 people, preparing for a decisive battle with Stalin.
When the news reached Lanfang, Qin Zhiyuan was not surprised. Qin Zhiyuan was even a little surprised by Stalin's patience. According to Qin Zhiyuan's understanding of Stalin, Stalin should have attacked Poland long ago.
Just this morning, the Belarusian army has reached the vicinity of Warsaw and is preparing to launch an attack on Warsaw. The Poles have not backed down. The Polish president has prepared 300,000 troops near Warsaw, ready to withstand the Belarusian attack. Gao Hongshi’s voice is still unwavering.
, without any emotional component.
Send a telegram to William and ask him to find the British. Everyone has the responsibility to curb the spread of the Bolsheviks. Even if the British now support Stalin, the British must consider this. If William does not take this opportunity to do something, then it will be a disaster.
What a pity. Qin Zhiyuan’s abacus was good.
Strictly speaking, the imperialist Lanfang is now one of the imperialists. For all bourgeoisie and imperialists, the Bolsheviks are enemies. The contradiction between them cannot be reconciled. Therefore, even if the British support Stalin, in their hearts they are
enemy.
The enemy of the enemy is a friend, so William III should seize the opportunity at this time. After all, Germany now does not even have an army and has no ability to resist the Bolshevik attack. Although Germany is the enemy of Britain, the British are definitely not willing to
Seeing that the Bolsheviks were spreading to Germany, William III should take this opportunity to make some demands to the British. If it was not too excessive, the British and French would consider it.
Do you want to remind Kolchak that Lu Zhengxiang wants to pull the trigger?
It's useless. Without the cooperation of our army, Kolchak's army can't defeat the Bolsheviks at all. Defense Minister Qin Zhisheng dismissed Kolchak, which is also the general view of Lanfang military.
In fact, now is also an opportunity for Kolchak. Stalin is attacking Poland, and the troops are concentrated on the southern front. If Kolchak takes the opportunity to launch an attack from the northern front, Stalin will definitely miss the other.
It's a pity that Kolchak is unable to attack now. Even if he finds a fighter plane, Kolchak does not dare to launch an attack. After all, the lesson Stalin taught Kolchak some time ago is too profound.
The Russian troops armed with Bolshevik ideas are still very effective. The Russian people's character is actually a bit awkward. Once they identify something, they will not change it easily. The most frightening thing is the fearless spirit of the Russian army. They seem to have no idea at all.
There is nothing to be afraid of, even if you sacrifice your life, it is nothing to the Russians.
Therefore, although Stalin's troops did not have heavy weapons, they still showed due bravery in the battle with Kolchak's troops. Kolchak also wanted to beat Stalin to death with a stick, but it was a pity that Lanfang's troops were not available.
With cooperation, Kolchak's troops immediately revealed their true colors.
Last winter, Kolchak's troops fought fiercely with the Bolsheviks on the Belarusian border for nearly four months. Kolchak paid a price of nearly 150,000 people, but got nothing. This made Kolchak and his generals
We are really a little nervous. We dare not ask Kolchak to attack Belarus now. Kolchak will be thankful to God as long as Stalin does not attack the coalition government.
