My Italian: Chapter 595 Munich Agreement Part 1

Munich is a beautiful city, for many people, and Carlo agrees.

However, the city of Munich, Carlo has never visited the city several times, and this time it is even more impossible. Just after getting off the train, the Italian delegation, led by him, hurried to Nuffenburg for this meeting. rush.

There, a delegation led by the Kaiser himself had arrived, and an Austro-Hungarian delegation led by Foreign Minister and President of the Council of Ministers Berchtold had arrived an hour earlier.

"William, Ludwig, long time no see."

At the entrance of Nymphenburg, when Carlo got out of the car, he saw the German Kaiser and the Bavarian Regent Ludwig III who greeted him at the door.

"Carlo, I'm very happy to see you this time. Is Sissy (Louise's nickname) okay?"

Well, as a daughter slave, William first cared about his precious little daughter Louise when he opened his mouth.

"Sissi and Vittorio are doing well now, and I think she wrote to let you know."

Facing William's inquiry, Carlo answered the current situation of the crown prince and his wife very naturally. Since the couple got married, the two have become even more glued to each other, so much so that they are in a honeypot.

However, Vittorio is the crown prince after all, and needs to learn to become a qualified monarch, so he needs to understand government affairs, otherwise the two will get tired of being together every day.

After hearing that his daughter was doing well, William was relieved.

Later, Carlo met with the German and Austrian military and political officials who came with the group, such as the German Prime Minister, the army representative Mooch, and the Navy Minister Tirpitz.

Of course, the Austro-Hungarian side is also there, headed by Foreign Minister Berchtold, and its military representative, General Herzendorf, the chief of the general staff.

It can be seen from these people that the next discussion will definitely be about the military affairs.

This is indeed the case. Two hours after the Italian representative arrived in Nymphenburg, the representatives of the three countries started the first round of negotiations.

"Everyone, this time the high-level military and political leaders of our three countries are gathered here to discuss issues such as cooperation and alliance between our three countries in the possible outbreak of war. Due to the relationship of time, it is impossible for everyone to stay for too long, so We will try our best to speed up, so that the three countries can fully work together to deal with this dispute provoked by the Entente."

As the convener of the meeting, Carlo first made a congratulatory speech.

"Everyone, let's discuss the needs of the Three Kingdoms first."

After Carlo finished speaking, the Italian Foreign Minister Barcona started to talk about the first topic.

"agree!"

"No comment!"

In the face of Bakona's words, Germany and Austria certainly have no opinion. Talking about what each country needs in advance can help everyone get to know each other.

"If that's the case, let's let our country speak."

As the instigator of the current dispute, Austro-Hungarian Foreign Minister Berchtold was the first to speak. "Our demand is to seize the Kingdom of Serbia and get the recognition of our country's rule over the region. In addition, if Russia is defeated, then Warren and Podol can be assigned to our country."

Austria-Hungary seems to have a big appetite. In addition to the original Kingdom of Serbia, it also has thoughts on the two territories of Warren and Podol in Russia. These two territories happen to be bordering their Galician territory. This Austria-Hungary not only wants to expand to the south, but also wants to expand to the east.

Of course, the Austro-Hungarians have a good appetite, so the German appetite is not small.

"If Russia and France are involved in the war between Austria-Hungary and Serbia, then our country believes that after defeating the two countries, Russia's Polish territory should belong to our country. In addition, our country should have priority over the French colonies in Africa except North Africa. right."

As the words of German Prime Minister Holwig fell, Germany's ambitions for France and Russia were also exposed.

Although it no longer takes the French mainland, the colony makes Berlin drool.

Now that everyone is no longer covering up, of course the Italian side has no scruples.

I saw Bacona opened his mouth. "If the war involves Britain, France and Russia, then our country hopes to recover the Nice and Savoy areas that were ceded to France, and Corsica should also return to the arms of Italy, and North Tunisia, Egypt and Sudan should all be under the jurisdiction of our country. ."

The request made by Italy is also enough to make people feel a lot of appetite.

"Then the Suez Canal is under the jurisdiction of your country?"

At this time, Prime Minister Holvig, immediately inquired.

As for why he asked, it is very simple. The Suez Canal is too important. It is the sea chokepoint linking Asia. It can be said that whoever controls it will have a huge influence on Asia.

Not to mention that most of Asia was a British colony at this time.

"This is only after the United Kingdom participates in this war. Our country will shoulder the heavy responsibility of blocking the transportation of British materials to the mainland, so it should also be paid accordingly."

Bakona, the foreign secretary, justified his reasons.

Because if Britain is also involved in this war, then the task of Italy will be very heavy, need to block its Mediterranean route, and also need to engage the British and French troops in North Africa. This can be difficult, and there must be enough reward.

Of course, Bacona also pointed out the fact that Britain is very likely to participate in the war, and for Germany and Austria, especially Germany, the British Empire really participated in this war, so the future direction of the Mediterranean will definitely require Italy to take the lead.

Since it has undertaken such a large task, Italy will definitely need to make its own demands.

"Egypt is in the hands of your country. I don't think it's difficult. But for the Suez Canal, I think it's best to avoid trouble. It's better for everyone to negotiate together."

At this time, the representative of Austria-Hungary, Count Berchtold, the head of the Austro-Hungarian delegation, opened his mouth at this time with a very simple intention, that is to stand on the side of Germany and prevent Italy from gaining the right to manage the Suez Canal alone. .

Again, because it's too important. If after this war is over, it is not that Italy is dominant in the Mediterranean Sea. In this case, it still has to control the Suez Canal. How can you make Austria-Hungary sleep?

The next focus is to prevent the Kingdom of Italy from threatening its own safety.

The attitudes of Germany and Austria let the Italian delegation know that the other side of the Suez Canal will never let Italy eat alone. UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com is actually on the Italian side, and they know how important the Suez Canal is. Before, I just had a try.

"Since this is the case, then after my country seizes Egypt, the Suez Canal Management Committee will be established, and the three countries will jointly manage the canal, but can the garrison and security of the canal section be managed by my country?"

Bakona redrawn the plan for the Suez Canal, bringing Germany and Austria together to share their interests.

"It's very reasonable and a good proposition."

"I think so can."

Although the two countries do not want Italy to share the rights of the Suez Canal, the Mediterranean still has to rely on Italy, and the benefits that should be given cannot be less.

Next, the proportion of the countries occupied by the Suez Canal was also divided, with Italy accounting for 45%, Germany accounting for 30%, and Austria-Hungary accounting for 25%.

After discussing the distribution of the benefits of the Suez Canal, the three countries also negotiated the distribution of raw materials.

After all, no one can rely on their own minerals to maintain their industrial needs, so they need the assistance of allies. Although this cannot completely offset the demand for the outside world, it can more or less relieve everyone.

Therefore, after some discussions, the three countries initially reached a complementary plan for industrial raw materials.

Among them, Germany will provide enough coal and other industrial raw materials for the three countries, and Austria-Hungary will also provide other industrial raw materials. As for Italy, it mainly provides petrochemical products.

The contents of these discussions were all discussed in one day. This shows how clearly the three countries have a clear understanding of the tense situation in Europe.
