Chapter 73 The World War Is Not over Yet!

Paris France.

When news came that the Hungarians had rejected the Allied ultimatum and that they had established a Soviet Republic. The quarrel among the three countries at the Paris Peace Conference has been going on for two months. The Paris Peace Conference was not a bargaining session between the victorious and defeated countries, but a quarrel behind closed doors between the leaders of the victorious countries, Britain, the United States and France. Japanese representative Nishizono Temple Gongwang and Makino Nobuaki, as well as Italian Prime Minister Orlando and others were watching the show.

At this peace conference, the most ideal result for Britain was to return the European continent to the situation before the World War or the Franco-Prussian War. That is to say, the balance of power continues to be maintained, and several evenly matched powers contain each other and are hostile to each other, and no one can do anything to the other. France's dominance and Germany's dominance make no difference to Britain.

It is a pity that the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which was originally an important party in the European balance of power, has fallen apart, and Russia, another link in the European balance of power, has become a Soviet country that is difficult to get along with... If we cannot find a way to change the situation in Russia after the Paris Peace Conference, If it is in favor of Britain, then Russia will no longer be a force maintaining the balance of power in Europe.

The French proposed using a Greater Poland to isolate Russia from Europe, but can the Poles really fight against the Russians? No European would believe it.

Moreover, Poles have always been pro-French! Great Poland is mostly a die-hard ally of Great France, and what strengthens it is France's power. Therefore, the British do not agree with excessively weakening Germany, lest France become too strong and difficult to control.

And the French naturally want to smash Germany into pieces and swallow it piece by piece! At least it has to be bounded by the Rhine River - this would swallow up the most important industrial area in Germany. In this way, France suddenly became the largest industrial country in Europe and the second largest in the world, far surpassing the United Kingdom. If you add a hard-core Francophile, Big Bobo. Europe returned to the Napoleonic era overnight!

Not to mention that the British don't agree to this matter, even the Americans have to jump up. So Britain and the United States opposed it together!

As for what Americans want, of course, it is to replace Britain to lead the world - this replacement is a question of who is the boss among their own brothers, and is not the same concept as the conflicts between Britain and Germany, Britain and France, and France and Germany. Therefore, the method proposed by Woodrow Wilson to realize the United States' leadership in the world is called the League of Nations, which sounds a bit conceptual...

In short, the Paris Peace Conference lasted for two months, and the Japanese Japs Saionji Konobo and Makino Nobuken watched in vain for two months. However, on March 23, when two Japanese rushed to the Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles, they found that the presidents, prime ministers and prime ministers of Britain, France and the United States were very close, almost touching each other, talking quietly around a table.

"What's going on? Mr. Prime Minister." Nobuno Makino didn't dare to disturb the three "overlords" Wilson, Clemenceau and Lloyd George, so he approached Italy, who was sitting on the side with his legs crossed and looking gloating. Prime Minister Orlando.

"They discovered that the world war is not over yet!" Orlando turned around and said to the Japanese in a rare cheerful tone.

"The world war is not over yet?" Nobuno Makino was startled, "Have the Germans regretted it?"

"No, it's not Germany, it's Hungary!" Orlando said. "They rejected the ultimatum and established a Soviet Republic!"

"What? What?" Nobuaki Makino and Gongwang Xiyuanji looked at each other. This was a lot of fun. The peace conference had been going on for two months, and the three giants were quarreling here every day to divide the spoils. As a result, the world war was not over yet, and theoretically they didn't even win!

"Then what should we do?" Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple asked hurriedly.

The Italian Prime Minister replied: "What else can we do? Of course we have to give the Hungarians a good beating!"

"Who's going to beat him?" Makino asked.

Orlando shrugged, "We Italians are willing to put in our efforts, if our efforts can be rewarded accordingly..."

It is a pity that Britain, the United States and France have never thought of letting Italians go to Hungary... This must be a loss for the Hungarians! As for the Japanese, the war in Europe has nothing to do with them. Now they only need to consider how to get Germany's rights and interests in Shandong.

The armies of Britain, the United States and France actually don’t want to go to Hungary because they find that the road to Hungary is very difficult...

…

The road to Hungary was difficult for the British, French and Americans. Because they do not border the Hungarians, and Germany and Austria have not signed the harsh treaty, in theory Germany and Austria may not accept the conditions of the Allies and choose war!

So it is not feasible to go to Hungary through German and Austrian territory - if you must go through it, you have to negotiate with Germany and Austria, and at least provide the condition of lifting the blockade, right?

If they cannot go through Germany and Austria, then the Allies can only enter Hungary by land from three directions: Croatia, Serbia and Romania.

"The Hungarians are very hateful. They destroyed the railways and blew up many railway bridges. Now the railway traffic from Croatia, Romania and Serbia to the Hungarian plains has been completely interrupted!"

"The water transport on the Danube has also been interrupted! They have laid mines in the Danube!"

"They also surrounded our two Moroccan regiments in Budapest, disarmed them, and drove them to Austria. This was a declaration of war against the Allies and France!"

"Yes, this is a declaration of war! The Allies cannot retreat, they must show their strength!"

"That's right, we must give them something hard!"

The discussion became heated, and "Tiger" Clemenceau was the most excited, jumping up and down and shouting for war and killing. British Prime Minister Lloyd George also threw away his gentlemanly manners and echoed him. Not only did the Hungarians refuse to surrender, but they also established a Soviet Republic! This is completely different from the "fake Soviet" of the Germans!

According to the reports of the Allied military delegation and special delegation expelled to Vienna, the ruling Hungarian Socialist Unity Party has publicly declared that it will establish a proletarian revolution! And it is still being implemented. After they "seized" (actually it can't be considered as seizing, because the Karoli government couldn't do it anymore and gave up power) power, they immediately issued a decree to establish the Red Army! The Hungarian Red Army established political commissars in full accordance with the model of the Soviet Red Army. As the real power holders of various troops, professional officers (mainly old officers and hired German and Austrian retired officers) were just their staff.

Hungarian justice was also completely revolutionized. The old judicial organs were abolished, and new revolutionary courts were established where the original workers were responsible for trials. The revolutionary people's police also replaced the original old police.

In terms of economy, the first declaration issued by the Hungarian Soviet government was to nationalize banks, mines, large industrial enterprises, transportation vehicles and large estates. Subsequently, the Hungarian Soviet government issued a decree that foreign trade was monopolized by the state, and established the Supreme Council of National Economy to manage the national economic work.

After this series of decrees were issued and implemented, the leaders of the Allied Powers had realized the fact that the Soviet revolution was spreading in Europe! The second real Soviet country has appeared in Europe!

"Mr. Prime Minister, Mr. Prime Minister!" US President Woodrow Wilson suddenly said to Clemenceau and Lloyd George in an extremely solemn tone, "The Russian revolution has not been extinguished, and Hungary has become the second Soviet Republic! If we cannot unite and curb the momentum of the spread of the revolution, a new world war may begin!"
