The Third Reich: The Return of the King
Chapter 37
Putting down the telegram, Mainz didn't know what to say.
The incident of the mass sinking of the high seas fleet is a very famous event in history, and he naturally knew about it for a long time, but Mainz never thought about changing anything.
For Hans, as long as they are still a defeated country, it is impossible to recover the high seas fleet, and the result of not being able to recover it is that they can only watch this fleet, which has cost generations of effort for the entire empire and spent huge manpower, material and financial resources, to be divided among others.
It is better to let them sink than to see the former warships of the High Seas Fleet flying the flags of other countries in their own coastal waters.
In fact, the ending of the sinking of the High Seas Fleet was not unacceptable for the sun never set, and even many Royal Navy generals felt that this ending was good.
For example, Admiral Roslyn Weems, after hearing the news of the sinking of the High Seas Fleet in Sparka Bay, excitedly said to those around him: "These ships have sunk at a good time, so that we don't have to worry about the distribution of these ships anymore!"
The High Seas Fleet was once the second largest navy in the world, and this fleet lost almost nothing in the war and was captured in its entirety.
At the peace conference held in the Iron Tower City, many countries watched this fleet with their eyes in an attempt to get a piece of the pie when they divided the fleet.
Among them, the Far East's Foot Basin States, Europe's Gaul and Italy, and even North America's Eagle Sauce all hoped to get a few German main battleships to strengthen their naval strength.
And this requirement is not a good thing for the empire on which the sun never sets, if the main warships in the high seas fleet are really distributed to these countries, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance the naval strength of these countries, and then it will pose a direct threat to the royal navy.
At this time, among the navies of the world, the Royal Navy of the Empire on which the sun never sets deserves to be the first grade, followed by the navies of the United States and Japan, followed by Gaul and Italy.
According to the standards of the Royal Navy in the past few hundred years, in order to maintain the supremacy of the Royal Navy in the world, they need the total tonnage of the Royal Navy's warships to reach the second and third in the world combined, and after the First World War, this naval advantage is only difficult to maintain.
In this case, Eagle Sauce's shipyard is also starting to get busy, preparing to produce more and more powerful capital warships for Eagle Sauce's navy!
These real threats are enough to give the sun a headache, and it will be even more of a headache if the high seas fleet is distributed to these countries at this time!
Therefore, let the high seas fleet disappear on its own, in the absence of the high seas fleet, this may be the best solution to the current problem!
As a result, when the countries discovered that the self-sinking of the High Seas Fleet was beneficial to the sunset, everyone began to wonder if the sunset deliberately directed this action in order to prevent the countries from getting the warships of the High Seas Fleet
This news that I don't know where it came from quickly spread all over the world, and this news was not groundless, and soon someone exposed more detailed internal information.
It turned out that when escorting the High Seas Fleet to Sparka Bay, the Sunrise had made private contact with the German generals and revealed to them that the Royal Navy had allowed the Germans to return to Hans with one or two capital ships.
This information made the whole German army very excited, so they happily followed the Entente people, and all the way they behaved very calmly and recklessly.
However, after arriving at Sparka Bay, the sun never sets revealed the content of the Tower City Peace Conference to the German generals little by little through various channels.
At this time, the Tower City Peace Conference had reached its most intense time, and the countries had almost quarreled in order to gain a little more advantage in the post-war division of the fruits of victory.
After dividing up the Second Reich's overseas colonies and assets, countries targeted the weapons and equipment left behind by the German army, especially the high seas fleet anchored in Spaka Bay
In this case, the countries are eager to monopolize the High Seas Fleet, and even if they can't do so, they will have to share one more ship, and in line with the principle of taking more small profits and less big losses, the great powers are not willing to let go of even a single screw of the High Seas Fleet, so how can they leave one or two capital ships for the German army?
After the sun never set leaked this news to the German army, the German army immediately fell into despair.
They arrived in Sparka Bay in November last year, and they thought that it would not be long before they could return to their homeland with the warship, but they did not expect to be detained for more than half a year before the sun set, and then they waited for such a result, which many naval soldiers and generals could not accept.
As a result, the German army came up with the idea of sinking the warships of the High Seas Fleet en masse!
The idea in their hearts is very simple: since these beloved warships can no longer serve the motherland, then at least they must not fall into the hands of the enemy, and since they cannot continue to accompany these warships in battle, they have to destroy them with their own hands!
Thus, this is the scene of the collective self-sinking of the Sparka Bay High Seas Fleet.
The news spread with a nose and an eye, as if someone had seen it with his own eyes, and it was logically inferred that there was no flaw in this matter, and judging from the final result, it was obvious that the sun did not set on this matter, and the other Entente powers were lost.
As a result, many of the great powers chose to believe this rumor, and those who did not believe in these rumors did not miss the opportunity to use this rumor to exert pressure on the sunset.
For a time, at the Tieta City Peace Conference, the representatives of the sun never set were collectively attacked by the representatives of various countries!
And in order to appease the anger of the countries, the empire had to make concessions in other aspects, satisfying the appetite of the great powers, and the matter was slowly subsided.
And when the Allied powers were arguing over the matter of the High Seas Fleet, not many people realized that they had all become pawns on someone's chessboard, and each of them played their role and value brilliantly.
Every day that the Eiffel Tower Peace Conference drags on, the more serious the differences of interests between countries become, and the rift in the relations between countries will become wider and wider, which is good news for Hans, who is a defeated country and needs to survive under the pressure of various countries.
