Goppel did not immediately enter the negotiation process as he imagined, but had a hearty breakfast first.

He was particularly interested in a Ming Dynasty thing called steamed buns, and ate a whole basket of them one bite at a time.

I also ate a few of that leek box. The green stuff inside looked like grass, and the yellow stuff seemed like eggs.

He soon regretted it. When the shrimp dumplings with crystal-clear crystal-like skin arrived, he also wanted to try one, but... he was full.

Daming rice porridge is very delicious, thicker than milk and naturally more filling than milk.

At eight o'clock sharp, Geppel entered the conference room. After the two parties took their seats, two photographers came in specially and took photos of both parties.

On one side is the German flag, and on the other side is the Ming Dynasty's Yellow Dragon Flag.

The negotiators from both sides sat down clearly, and the negotiation officially began.

Li Xiao sat at the most inconspicuous end of the Ming Dynasty mission, looking leisurely and contented. Opposite him was a very fat white man.

Fat people seem to like to sweat, and this fat man's face was covered in sweat.

It could be seen that he was very nervous. He kept wiping the sweat from his face with a handkerchief, trying not to let the sweat drip on his black dress.

"Dear Mr. Goppel, we are negotiating here for the future and peace of the Ming Empire and the German Empire.

This is a fair negotiation, and I hope we can all get what we want today." Zheng Sen gave a rather official speech.

"Dear Mr. Dahonglu Zhengsen, we are also here for peace and for the future and destiny of millions of soldiers in both countries.

We are against killing, and I hope for peace. Today, we will end this war that should not have happened here and restart the friendship between Germany and the Ming Empire.

Long live peace!" Goppel's speech was also quite official.

Zheng Sen stood up and shook hands with Geppel, and the photographer lost no time in taking pictures of the scene.

"In view of the fact that our frontline troops on both sides have already achieved a ceasefire. Therefore, we will not talk about the ceasefire issue to save some time." Zheng Sen got straight to the point.

"Yes, we think so too."

Goppel nodded seriously. There is no need to talk about the ceasefire now. Anyway, as long as the Ming Dynasty does not launch an attack, it is impossible for the German army to attack.

“Then let’s talk about our Ming Dynasty’s requirements!

First of all, the German Empire must withdraw from the European coalition and withdraw its troops from Russian territory!

Secondly, the German Empire will launch an attack on France before September 20th.

Third, during its attack on France, the German Empire enjoyed all the rights enjoyed by the allies of the Ming Empire.

We will provide corresponding support!

The Fourth German Reich should...!”

Zheng Sen took out the prepared manuscript and read it according to the script!

Everyone pricked up their ears and listened. When they heard that Germany could have the status of an ally of the Ming Empire, Li Xiao obviously noticed that the nose of the fat man opposite him was shining.

"The German Empire fully agrees to the conditions of the Ming Empire, but... we still have one request." Goppel hesitated for a moment, but still made a request.

"Oh, what's the request?" Zheng Sen was stunned. He didn't expect Germany to make another request.

What exactly are the requirements?

"We want to work with Russia to annex Poland first. Poland's territory can be divided into two, and we will share it equally with Russia." Goppel knew that Ming Dynasty had no territorial ambitions in Europe, so he was relieved.

Simply, they made territorial claims first.

In this way, there is a buffer zone of 300 kilometers between Germany and Russia.

In the event of a dispute with Russia in the future, this three hundred-kilometer buffer zone will be very important.

After all, after experiencing this European war, there are only two powerful countries left in Europe: Germany and Russia!

Russia was very depleted in the European War, but Germany needed the support of the Ming Dynasty to fight the French army.

The French army under the command of Napoleon was fighting on the mainland, so the war would definitely be very tragic.

Goppel has not forgotten the war ten years ago.

Verdun, the Somme, these are place names that make Germany sad.

"Carve up Poland! Then you have to destroy the Polish army first." Zheng Sen calculated it, and this was beyond his expectation. He wanted to ask the commander for instructions, but today Li Xiao asked him to take full responsibility.

It’s not easy to find Li Xiao either.

"We agree in principle with your partition of Poland, but you must first defeat the Polish army.

The main combat opponent of the Ming Army is France now, so to deal with the Polish army, what we can provide you is very limited."

Zheng Sen thought about it and said.

When Germany attacks Poland, Zheng Sen doesn't know what the result will be. But Zheng Sen knows that this Polish army is just a re-organized army after the main force of the Polish army was annihilated two years ago.

The combat effectiveness was not expected to be too high. Against such an army, Zheng Sen thought that Germany would win in the end.

"We understand Ming's concern, but Poland is die-hard loyal to Napoleon. If the Polish resistance is not eliminated, they will not only prevent the Russians from continuing to advance westward, but also stab us in the back when Germany attacks France.

One knife.

If this is the case, Germany will have to deploy at least fifty divisions on the border between Germany and Poland to resist possible Polish attacks.

Therefore, our army proposes to work with the Ming army and the Russian army to first annihilate the Polish army."

What Goppel said makes sense. After all, the King of Poland was appointed by Napoleon. France’s influence on Poland is really too great!

It would really be unbearable if the Polish army stabbed them in the back when the German army was attacking.

"So, will this affect Germany's ability to launch an attack on France before September 20th?" Zheng Sen compared the time of Germany's attack on France.

"We will use some of our troops to attack the Metz, Assass, and Lorraine regions of France first. After our army has eaten the Poles, we can attack France with all our strength.

It will take about four months to half a year!" Geppel made an estimate and gave the specific time.

Li Xiao smiled slightly, this Geppel was indeed cunning.

They first launched attacks in Metz, Assassus, and Lorraine, which basically resulted in no effort.

Half a year later, when the main force of the Ming Dynasty arrives at the French border, they will take action together with the Ming Dynasty army!

With the support of the Ming army, both casualties and losses will be much smaller. Moreover, after the war, they will also ask for Alsace and Lorraine, which Germany has always wanted.
Chapter completed!
