The Third Reich: The Return of the King
Chapter 17
Just after the New Year of 1919, the city began to be lively.
A large number of soldiers returned from the front line, and more than 1,000 delegates from various countries to participate in the peace talks, turned the city into a bustling city again after a brief depression due to the war.
The streets of the Tower City are lit up with lights, and joy fills the streets.
The double encouragement of New Year's Day and the victory at the front made the hearts of the people of Gaul, who had already called themselves a romantic people, naturally became more unscrupulous and profligate at this time.
Under such circumstances, several young people in suits and leather shoes, dressed meticulously, are particularly eye-catching on the streets of Tower City.
"Drunk on paper!".
Seeing this scene in Tower City, Major General Harut, the head 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.
I don't know if I envy the prosperity of the streets of the Tower City, or envy the Gauls who were lucky enough to win the war.
Maybe it's both, after all, in the military, many people still can't believe that they actually lost this war.
"It might be better to describe it as a drunken dream of death!".
Major Mainz said with a smile that the reason why the Gauls celebrated this victory with such enthusiasm was because for them they had been looking forward to it for too long, too long, their inner desires had been suppressed for too long, and once they had been satisfied, they wanted the whole world to know their joy.
The whole of Gaul was already extremely inflated at this time, and perhaps in the hearts of the Gauls, their homeland, the most powerful country in the world!
In this situation of being carried away by the joy of victory, it is not surprising that the Gauls made some crazy gestures of celebration.
However, the more they celebrate, the more they prove one thing: this war has been extremely devastated to them, and they have paid an unimaginable price for this war!
After the outbreak of World War II, Gaul, known as the first army power in Europe, was defeated and surrendered in just one month after the outbreak of the Gallic War, and their surrender speed was even faster than the German army captured the tower city.
Of course, this is a joke and cannot be taken seriously, but many historians and military scientists, after careful study, believe that the main reason for Gaul's rapid defeat and surrender during World War II was the heavy cost of the war during World War I.
The First World War brought millions of casualties to Gaul, and the population of Gaul at this time was only 40 million, and a war caused Gallic to lose more than 1.5 million troops, and if you count civilian casualties, the population of Gaul is directly reduced by nearly four million!
Such a heavy loss was a nightmare for the small population of Gaul, so after the war, the Gauls were extremely disgusted with war, and no one was willing to go to the battlefield to die, which led to the result that in the face of the Second World War, not many people in the whole of Gaul were willing to go to war, because they were afraid of the end of a whole generation of casualties like their own fathers!
It was precisely because he knew the situation of World War II in history that he saw the carnival of the Gauls at this time, and Major Mainz felt that the Gauls were drunk and dreaming of death.
Maybe they thought they had won this war, after all, they had defeated the Second Empire, and even led to the demise of the Second Empire!
But in fact, they planted the seeds of hatred in the hearts of the Hanse people, and this seed will thrive in the future, giving birth to the Third Reich, the real nightmare of the Gauls!
The strongest and most enduring thing in the world is not love, but hatred!
......
The Gauls did not know the evaluation of Major Mainz, and at this time they were immersed in the joy of victory, how could they possibly see the crisis ahead?
However, the delegates, who arrived from the fog capital, could not help frowning after seeing the national celebration in Gaul.
As one of the victorious nations, the country was also very happy that the empire was finally able to win the war, and various celebrations were held in various places.
However, the nature of the celebration was completely different from that of the Gauls, because the sun never set, and there was a faint sense of sadness in the whole society because of the loss of relatives in the war, but there was also a sense of relief.
In the eyes of many people, the First World War was supposed to be a war between the Gauls and the Hanskees, and it had little to do with them, because it was Gaul that was invaded and not the sun never set, so they did not have the feeling of defending their home and country like the Gauls, and the reason why they went to the battlefield to fight was only on the orders of the queen and the army.
In addition, there are many young nobles who are eager to express themselves on the battlefield through war, get promoted, and thus give themselves a better future.
But with the mass deaths of these men in the two meat grinder-like battles of Verdun and the Somme on the Western Front, there was no longer a basis for war fanaticism in the whole country.
What's more, the infinite submarine warfare of the German army made the sun never set on the empire as if it was a noose, and it was almost impossible to breathe, the domestic materials were scarce, the prices soared, and the people's lives were greatly affected, which made the people full of resistance to this war.
At this time, the end of the war allowed the empire of the sun to never set and its 40 million native citizens to finally get out of this crisis, which was the reason for their joy and celebration.
However, there was no unforgettable hatred between Sunset and Hans, who had no intention of putting Hans to death, so they could not understand the madness of the Gauls at all.
However, even if they do not understand it, they can see something from the perspective of a bystander: the Gauls are so nonsense, I am afraid that there will be problems in the future!
"Hmph, the abused will only create more terrible hatred if the abuser uses the abuser's methods to deal with the abuser, if the Gauls can't completely wipe out the Hans Empire or even more than 80 million Hanns this time, then it is not far before they become victims again!"
Compared with the worries of the sunset, the Eagle Sauce President Willison from afar pointed out the future of the Gauls more directly!
