After annihilating the Roniya army of more than 100,000 people, the territory of Odili finally calmed down. At this time, the external intervention army and the internal rebels had all been eliminated, and The Allies were busy fighting with native chickens and woolly bears, and had no time or energy to intervene in the Anschluss.
So in Mainz's view, the conditions for the German-Austrian Anschluss are already very sufficient!
On November 15, 1919, Constantine, a representative of the Odili Parliament, took a train to Bolin, the capital of Hans, with the proposal approved by a plenary vote of the Odili Parliament, and formally submitted a proposal for the merger of Germany and Austria to the Hans government.
After learning the news, the international community, especially the European Allied Powers, paid great attention to this matter. They began to put pressure on the Weimar Republic government and did not allow the Weimar Republic to accept the Odili proposal and the Anschluss.!
In fact, the knowledgeable people in Hans have already thought of this. If Odili really merges with Hans, it will greatly enhance the strength of Hans and expand the area of Hans to 600,000 square meters. kilometers, and the number of the main ethnic groups will exceed 80 million, making it the second most populous country in Europe and the second largest country in mainland Europe. Both figures are second only to the woolly bears in Eastern Europe.
The Allies spent so much effort to kill the Second Reich. If they just sit back and watch Hans and Odili merge at this time, wouldn't all their hard work be in vain?
Therefore, the major member states of the Entente, including the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets and Gaul, issued stern warnings to the Weimar Republic, not allowing them to annex Odili, otherwise they would suffer extremely serious consequences.
The people of Hans did not care about this threat from the Allies. At worst, they would just have to fight another war. In the year of their defeat, they were cut off a large amount of territory by the Allies, robbed a lot of wealth, and carried a lot of money on their backs. He received heavy war compensation that he will never be able to repay in his lifetime.
But these are not the most serious. What is most serious is the arrogant attitude of the Allied representatives stationed in Hans with the lofty attitude of the victors!
This attitude made the proud Hans very dissatisfied. In the post-war economic fluctuations and social unrest, people's anger towards the Allies has reached its peak!
As far as Hans is concerned, they have been defeated and have already incurred debts that are so heavy that they can hardly repay them. Even if they stand up and resist and are knocked down again, they really have nothing to lose. They have almost nothing.!
If you lose, you have nothing to lose, but if you win, you can directly stand up and take charge. These two extremely contrasting endings made most people in Hans feel that they might as well have persisted in fighting to the end!
Faced with this fierce public opinion, the Weimar Republic should have stood firm to the end, because what has happened so far has proved that the Allied Powers have reached the end of their strength and have no power to intervene in the affairs of the Bear and organize another attack on Hans. They didn't even have the strength to interfere in Odili's war to destroy the country.
Under such circumstances, even if the Weimar Republic accepts the proposal of the Odili representative and really merges with Odili, it may not be severely punished and attacked by the Allied Powers. The words of the Allied Powers may seem scary, but they are only superficial. That's all!
However, just when everyone thought that the Weimar Republic would accept this proposal, the Weimar Republic actually gave up!
"We cannot accept the hypocrisy of the Odili people. Fifty years ago, we kicked them out of Hans during the Austro-Prussian War. Now we cannot accept the other party just because of their wishful thinking. At this time, Odili is full of domestic conflicts and has high foreign debts. , accepting them means that we have to pay their bills and wipe their butts. I think this is the real intention of their decision to merge with us. We must not be fooled by this!"
President Abbott delivered an impassioned speech in Congress, and the representatives looked at him in stunned silence.
"Is this guy going to reject the Odili people?
"I think that's 80% true!"
"He must be afraid of the sun never setting and the Gauls, otherwise why would he give up such a good opportunity?"
"Well, that must be it, this guy has been trying to keep things quiet the entire time!"
When the members reacted one after another, a large number of members immediately stood up to oppose President Abbott.
"I object, we must not give up this opportunity to merge with Odili!"
"Yes, that's right, Odili are Hans too, there's no reason not to accept them!"
"Support the merger of Odili!"
"Quiet, quiet, don't make any noise, listen to me!"
Seeing a large number of members of Congress expressing their opinions emotionally and strongly opposing his proposal, President Abbott's face suddenly turned livid!
"I have made up my mind, you don't need to say any more!"
"Hum, this country is not yours alone, why do you have the power to make decisions for everyone arbitrarily!"
"That's right, this is not your country alone, this is the country shared by 80 million Hans. We support the merger with Odili!"
"Support the merger with Odili and oppose dictatorship!"
More and more congressmen are standing on the opposite side of the president, and only a handful of congressmen are on the side of the president. They look embarrassed and dare not look at the angry expressions of their colleagues.
These congressmen who are on the side of the president, They are basically people from the ruling party, so their support for the president does not mean that they support the president in their hearts. They just have to do so due to party pressure!
"I am the president and I have the right to decide the country's foreign policy strategy!"
President Abbott did not change his decision because of the opposition. In his opinion, with so many people standing up to oppose him, there must be someone deliberately instigating him behind the scenes, and this person is likely to be someone from the military.!
This made Albert firm in his mind. He must cooperate with the Allied Powers and use the power of the Allied Powers to suppress and weaken the domestic military forces, especially the powerful and entrenched Junker nobles!
"This is Congress, we can impeach or even remove the president!"
"Yes, yes, we can impeach you!"
Seeing that President Abbott actually used his identity as president to suppress people, the congressmen were stunned for a moment and then immediately reacted. Their disgust for the president in front of them reached its peak!
Therefore, impeachment or even removal of the president Suggestions are starting to come in!
"Support the removal of the president!"
"Such a mediocre person is not worthy of being our president, and he is not worthy of leading Hans!"
"Remove the president! Who supports and who opposes?"
"I support!"
"And I!"
"Count me in!"
A large number of members of Congress began to express their opinions and were ready to vote to remove the president.
President Albert's face was even more livid at this time. When he saw that these people actually wanted to overthrow him, he became extremely angry and started to overturn the table!
"In accordance with the powers granted to the President by the Constitution, I now declare that from now on, the Congress will be officially dissolved!"
