"Dear German Head of State, the conditions you have proposed are simply impossible to be accepted by our government!"
If we want to ask what it feels like to be unable to defeat and defeat the opponent, then the Duke of Hamilton, as the British negotiating ambassador, is in this state now.
The so-called non-speculative words are just a few words, but Reinhardt clearly has no intention of peace talks. This can be easily seen from the peace talks conditions he offered Hamilton.
Unlike Hitler who desperately advocated that the Saxons and the Germans were a loving family, Reinhardt, the head of the Third Reich in this generation, never regarded the British as allies with whom he could join forces to deal with the Soviet Union.
Generally speaking, both parties in a peace negotiation will set out a relatively high condition at the beginning for bargaining. This is not a new thing.
The key is that the horse mount that Reinhard has launched this time is no longer a problem that can be solved by bargaining!
When Duke Hamilton arrived in Berlin and finally met the head of the Third Reich and declared that he hoped for peace talks, Reinhardt casually stated his own peace conditions without hesitation.
What does it mean to give conditions casually?
This means that you don’t even have to think about it, and you don’t have to worry about various possible negotiation scenarios. You just need to ask for a price!
As for whether to answer or not, that's not Reinhardt's concern.
To be honest, he was really afraid that Hamilton would have a short-circuit and agree to all his conditions. In that case, the napalm bombs that had been transported to the temporary airport built in the UK and prepared for tomorrow would not be thrown away.
In order to prevent Hamilton from agreeing, the peace conditions offered by Reinhard were not so much harsh as they were nonsense!
Reinhardt proposed that the peace request that Britain now wants to ask for and needs to agree to is: the British navy can only retain one-tenth, and it is not allowed to have cruisers and above-tonnage battleships, and all the remaining main battleships of the British navy must be handed over to
Used by the German Navy.
Yes, this was the unreasonable request the British made to the German Navy back then!
Reinhardt, who made his fortune with Operation Rainbow, will certainly not forget the reasons for Operation Rainbow.
Although he has no intention of peace talks, let alone giving the British a chance to launch Operation Rainbow. However, he does not mind using the tragic experience of the German navy after the end of World War I to treat others with their own medicine and ridicule them.
To stimulate the Duke of Hamilton.
At the same time, Reinhardt also proposed that all shipyards and heavy industry bases in the UK must be transferred to Germany, arrange production uniformly, and hand over all its patented technologies.
Such excessive demands were hundreds of times more stringent than the surrender negotiations the French faced.
After all, no matter how attached the Vichy French government was to Germany, Pétain at least still controlled the French navy. Moreover, because Vichy France had recently actively participated in major military operations within the Allied Powers, Pétain's army size was also agreed to be slightly expanded.
Quite a few.
On the other hand, Reinhardt now made a surrender request to Duke Hamilton: The Third Reich and its allies must station troops in Britain, and the number must be maintained at more than 200,000.
On the other hand, the British overseas colonies, except for retaining the nominal ownership rights of the United Kingdom, all governance rights are transferred to Germany...
In this way, Montgomery and Wavell would not have to hurt each other with Rommel, Berlant, and Garibaldi in Africa, and they could just surrender together with the mainland.
As for terms such as war reparations and weapons surrender, there is no need to mention them.
Anyway, the previous clauses are already fatal, and adding other contents is just to repeatedly flog the corpse.
"Mr. Hamilton, I can tell you responsibly that you have every right not to agree to Germany's request." Reinhardt did not care and said with a smile to the blushing Hamilton through the translator: "To be honest, I really
I don’t want you to agree to my conditions. After all, if you wait a little longer, the Allied armies will be able to get these things, but you won’t be able to keep anything.”
"Think about it carefully. If your army is like the empire's army, it has been fighting so smoothly and almost never failed. If it were you, would you be willing to give up the last round at this time?" Reinha
Te continued to taunt without any scruples.
"You won't, and neither will Mr. Churchill! If that's the case, you will definitely turn my head of state's mansion into your trophy at all costs, and turn Berlin into ruins!"
"But speaking of this, I really don't hear Mr. Churchill's rhetoric recently." At this point, Reinhard suddenly remembered and said: "Why, Prime Minister Churchill is unwell, and he is also like Mussori in Italy."
The Prime Minister of Nigeria fell ill and was admitted to the hospital just like before?"
"This..." Hamilton really couldn't respond to this question. He couldn't tell the head of a hostile country how British Prime Minister Churchill had been crazy and delirious recently.
As the saying goes, family scandals should not be made public.
Nowadays, all matters in London, large and small, are basically handled by Gott, who has been promoted to Duke, and is now acting as Prime Minister. The London government has also become a military government to a certain extent.
These things are not insider information that should be revealed casually.
"Dear German Head of State, I think we should have a good talk about peace. Through your recent public speeches, I believe you also hope for peace. So, please make some concessions with us.
In order to reduce more unnecessary casualties, in order to prevent more innocent people from being involved, and for the sake of peace, negotiate seriously!"
After much deliberation, Gott still tried to bring the topic back to the main topic.
Here, he also specifically quoted the content of Reinhardt's previous speech to remind the head of state that he had publicly declared that he would strive for peace.
Unexpectedly, Reinhardt did not accept this trick at all.
I saw Reinhard standing up and talking without any back pain and preaching to Gott: "First point, I think I can kindly remind you. If your prime minister has been admitted to the hospital, then I suggest that you find a replacement as soon as possible.
The choice of prime minister. Italy’s last prime minister, Mussolini, is the best example. You know, these prime ministers generally don’t live long after being admitted to the hospital.”
"Secondly, who said I was going to fight for peace." Reinhardt openly lied to Hamilton without any grace or restraint: "Those are beautiful words for the public and the international community. How can you believe it?
What I want has always been to actually occupy the entire UK!"
