Jagged Germany: Chapter 1008 Get what you want ask for a monthly ticket

  Portugal has a coup d'état and the military has taken control of the government, shocking the whole world. Still, it doesn't seem like a big deal, given Portugal's similar coup that overthrew royal rule nine years ago.

  Although many local governments across Portugal expressed their opposition to the military government led by Cabesadas, their opposition was quickly extinguished after the army began to march across Portugal. The whole of Portugal was quickly taken under the control of the military regime headed by Cabesadas.

  After the successful coup, Cabesadas recognized himself as the president and prime minister of the government, and took power alone. The former army chief of staff Da Costa served as the army secretary, and Carmona was promoted to major general and served as the army chief of staff.

  It can be said that the main figures who planned the coup d'etat all gained a lot of benefits from the coup d'etat.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency, President! Now, Portugal is under your rule. The German Empire believes that under your rule, Portugal will definitely develop better." The German ambassador to Portugal called on the president who became the first time cabesadas. In addition to expressing congratulations to him, the other is to hope that he can fulfill his promise and sell the Azores to Germany as agreed. After all, Germany supported their coup in order to buy the Azores from them.

   "Ambassador, thank you for the support of the German Empire. Otherwise, our coup would not be so easy to succeed!" Cabesadas smiled.

  The funds provided to them by Germany enabled them to secretly buy many generals and officers to support the coup. The equipment of the two infantry divisions provided by Germany has greatly increased the strength of their direct troops. Due to their strong strength, other forces had to choose to compromise. After all, if there is no compromise, once a civil war breaks out, they will not be able to fight it, and they will eventually involve themselves in it.

"Your Excellency, the German Empire regards Your Excellency as our friend. Of course, we will fully support our friends. However, Your Excellency, our country is very sincere in purchasing the Azores. Now, Your Excellency and the new government will also It is time to use money. The sale of funds from the Azores can quickly relieve the government of your Excellency the President from financial pressure," said the German ambassador.

   Cabesadas knew that the Germans were determined to win the Azores. This time they supported the coup in Portugal in order to also buy the Azores. However, after becoming president, Cabesadas knew that if he really sold the Azores to the Germans, he would definitely be under a lot of pressure. Those opponents will definitely use this to attack him. At that time, this will make his rule turbulent. Therefore, it would be best if the Azores could not be sold.

   However, Cabesadas knew that his coup was only successful with the support of the Germans. If he rejects the Germans, the consequences will be even more serious. I am afraid that he will be overthrown by others immediately. The Germans could support him in overthrowing Sidonio Paez's government, just as they could support others in overthrowing his government.

"Your Excellency, I have thought about it for a long time. If we sell the Azores to your country, it will definitely cause a lot of resistance in the country. Therefore, I think we can lease the Azores to your country. The lease period and Rent is negotiable," Cabesadas said.

  The German ambassador couldn't help but frowned. The Portuguese's reaction made him very dissatisfied. Because, the Portuguese clearly wanted to cross the river and tear down the bridge!

   "Your Excellency, haven't we reached an agreement before?" said the German ambassador.

   "Your Excellency, I am doing this entirely to maintain the stability of my rule. If my rule is overthrown, I am afraid that the agreement reached with your country will not be able to be fulfilled." Cabesadas said.

  The German ambassador sneered, and then said: "Your Excellency should not worry about this. As long as the agreement is signed, I don't think any government dares to tear up the agreement."

   Cabesadas knew that under the deterrence of Germany's powerful military power, even if his rule was overthrown, the new government would not dare to tear up the agreement.

   "Okay, Ambassador. Let's sign the agreement tomorrow!" Cabesadas said. He knew that he couldn't refuse when Germany was determined to win. Otherwise, the Germans would have dealt with him.

   The next day, Cabesadas, on behalf of the Portuguese government, formally signed an agreement to sell the Azores with the German ambassador to Portugal. Germany bought the Azores from the Portuguese government for 500 million marks. From now on, the Azores will become German territory.

  When the agreement was signed, the German ambassador to Portugal immediately reported the situation to the country.

  Emperor Qin Tian and the military and political ministers of the empire all looked happy. After so much effort, they finally succeeded in occupying the Azores, which will give Germany a great advantage in its future confrontation with the United States in the Atlantic Ocean.

"Your Majesty, the Azores are already ours. We need to send people to receive them as soon as possible. Then, start building there. Build the Azores into the home port of the Atlantic Fleet and the most important stronghold of the Imperial Navy in the Atlantic Ocean." ” Said Marshal Reinhardt Scheer, Secretary of the Navy.

"Well, the Admiralty will follow the plan! I only have one request, and that is to build the Azores into the strongest stronghold. Even if you are besieged by the enemy in the future, you must be able to hold on. "Qin Tian said.

  Qin Tian believes that once a future war breaks out, Germany may face multi-front warfare. In this case, Germany will have a shortage of troops on some fronts. At that time, it is inevitable that the Azores will be besieged by the Americans.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We will build enough coastal fortifications and airports on the Azores. No matter what kind of enemy they are, they will definitely not be able to conquer the Azores easily." Reinhard Scheer Marshal assured.

  Qin Tian nodded in satisfaction. After so much effort, Germany finally got what it wanted to occupy the Azores this time. Next, Germany will build the Azores into the core stronghold of the German Navy in the Atlantic Ocean and a bridgehead against the United States in the next few years. This will be an important guarantee for Germany's security.
