Chapter 17 - The Return of the King chapter 017

Just after the New Year of 1919, the Eiffel Tower City began to become lively.

A large number of soldiers returned from the front line, as well as more than a thousand representatives from various countries who arrived to participate in the peace talks, making this city that was temporarily desolate due to the war once again become bustling and lively.

The streets of Iron Tower City are decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and there is joy everywhere.

The double encouragement of New Year's Day and the victory on the front line made the people of Gaul happy. They originally regarded themselves as a romantic nation, and at this time they naturally became more unscrupulous and dissolute.

Under such circumstances, a few meticulously dressed young people in suits and leather shoes stood out particularly on the streets of Tower City.

"Revel in wealth and indulgence!"

Seeing this scene in the Iron Tower City, Major General Harut, the leader of the secret delegation, said with some disgust.

Major Mainz glanced at Harut, and he felt that there seemed to be some kind of envy in the major general's tone. Emotion.

I don't know if I am envious of the prosperity of the streets of Iron Tower City, or of the Gauls' luck in winning the war.

After all, many people in the military still can't believe that they actually lost. this war

"It might be better to describe it as drunken and dreamy!"

Major Mainz said with a smile. The reason why the Gauls celebrated this victory so enthusiastically is because for them, they have been looking forward to this victory for too long, and their inner desires have been suppressed. For too long, once you are satisfied, you can't wait to let the whole world know your joy. At this time, the whole of Gaul has become extremely swollen. Perhaps in the hearts of the Gauls, their motherland is the most powerful country in the world!

Being carried away by the joy of victory, it is not surprising that the Gauls made some wild celebrations.

However, the more they celebrated, the more they proved one thing: this war. The damage to them was extremely serious, and they paid an unimaginable heavy price for this war!

After the outbreak of World War II, Gaul, known as the first army power in Europe, actually lost just one battle after the Battle of Gaul.

They were defeated and surrendered within a month.

Their surrender speed was even faster than the German army captured the Iron Tower City.

After all, the arrogant German army failed to catch up with Gaul's surrender before entering the Iron Tower City, and this also made Gaul In the following decades, Lu became the object of ridicule by people all over the world – no one could capture the Tower City before Gaul raised the white flag!

Of course, this was just a joke and not serious, but there are many! After careful research, historians and military scientists believe that the main reason for Gaul's rapid defeat and surrender during World War II was the heavy price Gaul paid for the war during World War I.

The First World War brought millions of casualties to Gaul. At this time, the population of Gaul was only 40 million. A war caused more than 1.5 million military casualties in Gaul. If civilian casualties are included, Gaul's population was only 40 million. The population of Lu was directly reduced by nearly four million!

Such a heavy loss was a nightmare for Gaul, which had a small population.

Therefore, after the war, the Gauls were extremely disgusted with war, and no one wanted to do so.

Going to the battlefield to work hard , the result was that when facing World War II, not many people in Gaul were willing to go to the battlefield, because they were afraid that an entire generation would be killed like their fathers!

It was because he knew the situation of World War II in history that when he saw the Gauls' revelry at this time, Major Mainz felt that the Gauls were in a state of intoxication.

Maybe they thought they had won this war, after all, they defeated the First World War. The Second Empire even led to the demise of the Second Empire.

But in fact, they planted the seeds of hatred in the hearts of the Hans people, and this seed will thrive in the future and give birth to the Third Empire, Gaul! Man's true nightmare comes out!

The strongest and most lasting thing in the world is not love, but hatred!

...

The Gauls were not clear about Major Mainz's evaluation. They were immersed in the joy of victory at this time, so how could they see the crisis in the future?

However, the representatives who arrived from the foggy city couldn't help but frowned after seeing the national celebrations in Gaul.

As one of the victorious countries, the country was also very happy that the empire could finally win this war. Various celebrations were held everywhere.

However, the nature of that kind of celebration is completely different from that of the Gauls, because many people in the country have lost their loved ones in the war because the sun never sets, so the whole society has a touch of sadness. In addition, there are more It's a feeling of relief.

In the eyes of many people, World War I should have been a war between the Gauls and the Hans, and it had little to do with them, because it was Gaul that was invaded and not the Sun Never Sets, so they were not like the Gauls. The Lu people have such feelings of protecting their home and country, and the reason why they go to the battlefield to fight is just to follow the orders of the queen and the army.

In addition, there are many young nobles who are eager to express themselves on the battlefield and gain promotion through war, so that they can have a better future.

But as these people died in large numbers in the two meat-grinder-like battles of Verdun and the Somme on the Western Front, there was no longer any basis for war fanaticism in the entire country where the sun never sets.

What's more, the German army's unlimited submarine warfare made the mainland of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets seem to be tied up with a noose, making it almost impossible to breathe. Domestic supplies were scarce, prices soared, and people's lives were greatly affected. This made the people They are full of resistance to this war.

At this time, the end of the war allowed the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets and its 40 million local citizens to finally escape from this crisis. This was the reason why they were happy and celebrating.

However, there was no unforgettable hatred between Sunset and Hans. They had never thought about putting Hans to death, so they could not understand the Gauls' madness at all.

However, even if they can't understand it, they can still see some problems from the perspective of bystanders: If the Gauls are messing around like this, there will definitely be problems in the future!

"Hum, the abused will only create more terrible hatred if they use the abuser's methods to deal with the abuser. If the Gauls cannot completely wipe out the Hans Empire and even more than 80 million Hans this time, then they will become Being a victim is not far away!"

Compared with the worries that the sun never sets, President Wilson, who came from afar, pointed out the future of the Gauls more directly!
