Paul Boselli's face was very ugly, mainly because Crown Prince Karl's tone was too aggressive, as if he would not give up until he squeezed out the marrow of the Kingdom of Italy, let Paul Boselli know that this Once the other party's conditions are probably quite harsh.
Although Paul? Boselli has long been ready. But after seeing such a situation, he still felt a little sad in his heart. Because, Crown Prince Karl acted too much like a robber, clearly intending to rob all the wealth of Italy!
"Ahem!" German Foreign Minister Vachter coughed twice, attracting everyone's attention, and then continued: "The Kingdom of Italy committed an unforgivable mistake in this war. To be punished is also Inevitable. The German Empire has the following requirements for the Kingdom of Italy. First, the Kingdom of Italy needs to pay war reparations of 20 billion marks to the German Empire. Second, the Kingdom of Italy will cede Sicily and Sardinia to the German Empire. Third, the Kingdom of Italy will transfer the colony of Libya to the German Empire. Fourth, the military strength of Italy must be restricted. The army must not exceed 100,000 people, and it cannot have tanks and cannons with a caliber of more than 100 millimeters. The navy is not allowed to build five Warships over a thousand tons cannot have submarines, aircraft carriers, or aircraft. Fifth, before Italy fulfills those conditions, the German Empire will station troops in Italy, tentatively set at 50,000 people!"
Wacht revealed the conditions of Germany. Except for one more Sardinia, the rest of the conditions are almost the bottom line of the German Empire. These conditions, the German Empire does not intend to give the Kingdom of Italy room to bargain, and will not back down.
"God! Your Excellency, Minister of Foreign Affairs, such a condition is too harsh. The Kingdom of Italy simply cannot bear it!" Paul Bocelli said immediately. Although the conditions put forward by Germany were relatively harsh, it did not surprise him. What worries Paul Boselli is that Germany has already put forward such harsh conditions. The conditions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire will definitely not be much looser than the conditions of the Germans, or even harsher.
Wacht didn't say anything more, as if he didn't want to talk about it.
Crown Prince Karl's eyes were about to burst into flames, but the Germans actually put forward the conditions first. This clearly did not take the Austro-Hungarian Empire seriously! What's more, he had already informed the German emperor of the conditions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, it now appears that the German emperor had no intention of taking care of the interests of the Austro-Hungarian Empire at all! This made Crown Prince Karl very angry.
"The Austro-Hungarian Empire hopes that the Kingdom of Italy can make the following compensations to the Austro-Hungarian Empire: first, the Kingdom of Italy must pay the Austro-Hungarian Empire 50 billion crowns of war reparations. Second, the Kingdom of Italy must make Venice and The territory of Edong was ceded to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Third, the Kingdom of Italy will transfer all its colonies to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Fourth and fifth, our requirements are the same as those of the German Empire." Crown Prince Karl said.
Paul Boselli was dumbfounded, and it did not surprise him. The conditions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire were even worse than those of Germany. The Germans wanted war reparations of 20 billion marks, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire wanted war reparations of 50 billion kronor. Even if the Kingdom of Italy was sold, these huge war reparations would not be enough! What's more, Germany and Austria-Hungary also made claims on Italian territory at the same time. The Germans wanted Sicily and Sardinia, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire wanted Venice and its east. After losing these territories, Italy's territory may shrink significantly. In addition, overseas colonies have been lost, and at the same time, military strength has been restricted. It can be said that if the Kingdom of Italy wants to make a comeback in the future, it is almost impossible.
"His Royal Highness, such a condition is too harsh for Italy to agree to!" Paul Bocelli said.
"If Italy does not agree, then the Austro-Hungarian army will attack Italy, crush Rome, and destroy Italy! Such a price is not something you can bear." Crown Prince Karl threatened.
"If Italy must pay such a heavy price, then Italy would rather go to war. Even if it is finally destroyed, there is no way. These conditions have long been beyond the range that the Kingdom of Italy can bear." Paul? Boselli said.
"Hmph! Your Excellency, Minister of Foreign Affairs, are you sure you want to reject the goodwill of the Austro-Hungarian Empire? Your actions are very likely to bring disaster to the Kingdom of Italy!" Crown Prince Karl threatened.
"If the Kingdom of Italy accepts those conditions, it will be no different from subjugation. Rather than this, it would be better to fight to the end." Paul Boselli refused to budge.
Suddenly, the negotiations reached a deadlock. Crown Prince Karl was furious, he was irritated by Paul Bocelli. However, he has nothing to do with the other party. If the Kingdom of Italy would rather fight to the end than accept their conditions, then even if the Austro-Hungarian Empire sends troops to attack the Kingdom of Italy, I am afraid it will not gain much benefit.
Although the military strength of the Kingdom of Italy is not strong. But if under the pressure of subjugation, only God knows how strong their fighting power will be. More than 40 years ago, when the Kingdom of Italy was unified, their combat effectiveness was also very strong. It may not be difficult for the Austro-Hungarian Empire to defeat Italy, but it is not so difficult to destroy Italy. Even if Italy can be destroyed, they will definitely pay a considerable price themselves. In this case, it may not be worth the candle.
"No, if you really want to destroy Italy, it will be too difficult and the price you will pay is too great. Even if you really want to continue to attack Italy, you have to bring in the Germans. Otherwise, it will be bad for the empire. Very unfavorable." Crown Prince Karl thought secretly. He is not a fool, and he knows very well that the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian army is far inferior to that of the German army. The battle would have been much easier with the help of the German army.
"Your Excellency, the Kingdom of Italy refuses to accept punishment. This is a provocation to the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the German Empire. We must take the necessary measures." Crown Prince Karl said, looking at German Foreign Minister Vachter.
Wachter smiled, and then looked at Paul Boselli: "Your Excellency, Minister of Foreign Affairs, is the Kingdom of Italy going to agree to the conditions of the German Empire?"
