"Your Excellency, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is an ally of the Empire after all. We cannot put pressure on them with great strength. In this case, the reputation of the Empire will not be good, and it will also affect the relationship between us and the Austro-Hungarian Empire." Wa Hitt shook his head.
These Italians are really whimsical, and it is reasonable for the empire to obtain those benefits from Italy. However, this does not mean that the empire will help them put pressure on the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
"Your Excellency, what should we do? Is it really only fighting the Austro-Hungarian Empire?" Paul Boselli said painfully.
Wachter thought for a while, and then said: "This time the conditions proposed by the Austro-Hungarian Empire are indeed very harsh."
"Yes, Your Excellency, it is really very harsh." Paul Boselli said hastily. ,
"So, how much can you pay the Austro-Hungarian Empire?" Vachter asked.
"Your Excellency, after we paid Germany 20 billion marks in war reparations, we have no more money. The huge domestic trauma caused by the war also requires a large amount of money. Therefore, the most we can do is to pay the Austro-Hungarian Empire Pay five billion crowns in war reparations," Paul Boselli said.
Wacht frowned involuntarily. The Italians were not a good thing either, and directly reduced the war reparations of the Austro-Hungarian Empire to one-tenth of the previous one. Although, five billion crowns is not a small amount. However, the gap between this and the expectations of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is too great!
"Five billion kroner is too little, let's change it to five billion marks!" Wahit said.
Paul Boselli was taken aback for a moment, then nodded immediately. Five billion marks is a little more than five billion crowns, but the amount is very limited. In conversion, it is only one billion marks more. Although this money will make the Austro-Hungarian Empire a little bit painful, they can still afford it. This is much less than the previous requirements of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
"Okay, Your Excellency. If it is five billion marks, then the Austro-Hungarian Empire can afford it." Paul Boselli said.
Vachite nodded: "As for Venice and the territory east of it, let it be ceded to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They have long coveted that piece of territory. If they refuse them, they will definitely not agree. The empire I also don’t want this negotiation to completely break down. Enough people have died in this war, and the empire doesn’t want to die any more.”
Paul Boselli thought for a while, then nodded. Although, ceding that piece of fertile and prosperous land to the Austro-Hungarian Empire caused Italy to lose a lot of national power. Coupled with the loss of Sicily, the territory of Italy has been greatly reduced. However, if the ambitions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire can be satisfied in this way and the war can be avoided, it will undoubtedly be very beneficial. If there is an opportunity in the future, Italy is not without the opportunity to regain those territories.
"Okay, Your Excellency. The Kingdom of Italy agrees to cede those territories to the Austro-Hungarian Empire." Paul Boselli said.
"As for the colonies of the Kingdom of Italy, Libya was transferred to the Empire, and Italian East Africa was transferred to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They should be able to satisfy such a large colony." Wahit said.
Libya is rich in oil resources. Germany invested in oil field development there during the war. How could it be possible to transfer this place to the Austro-Hungarian Empire? Being able to transfer Italian East Africa to them is already a good compensation for them.
"Okay, Your Excellency. The Kingdom of Italy has no objection to this." Paul Bocelli agreed very simply.
The Italians have also known for a long time that after losing this battle, their overseas colonies cannot be kept. Even the mainland has lost a lot of territory, let alone overseas colonies.
Of course, the Italians were more fortunate that the wars were all fought in the Alps, so they did not cause much damage to their homeland. Once the war is over, they will soon be able to recover from the war.
"Your Excellency, then our compensation to the Austro-Hungarian Empire mainly consists of these points. First, Italy compensates the Austro-Hungarian Empire with a war indemnity of five billion marks. Second, cede Venice and the area east of it to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Third, the Italian East African colonies are transferred to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Articles 4 and 5 are the same as the agreement we reached with Germany." Paul Boselli said.
Vachite nodded: "However, this is just a suggestion from the Empire. It is hard to say whether the Austro-Hungarian Empire will accept the goodwill of the Empire. Therefore, you should not place your hopes entirely on the Empire. If If the Austro-Hungarian Empire is really unwilling, you may pay a little more."
Paul Boselli nodded again and again: "The German Empire is the most powerful country in the world and the leader of the Allied Powers. The Austro-Hungarian Empire will not accept the goodwill of the German Empire."
Paul Boselli stayed at Wachter's mansion until three o'clock in the morning before leaving. However, he left with a smile on his face. This secret talk, the harvest is undoubtedly great. Not only reached an agreement with the German Empire, but also received the support of the German Empire. In the peace treaty with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, a lot of losses can be reduced.
This is undoubtedly very effective for the current Kingdom of Italy.
Wachite's face was also full of smiles. Italians are undoubtedly still very sensible. All the requirements of the empire have now been fulfilled. The war indemnity of 20 billion marks will allow the empire to obtain more available funds. Funds for the development of those new territories in Eastern Europe have also been allocated.
Sicily would also be ceded to the Empire, which, along with the acquisition of Corsica from the French, would give the Empire two footholds in the Mediterranean. Although Sardinia is still under the control of the Italians, there is no doubt that the empire's power has expanded to the Mediterranean.
The transfer of the Libyan colony to the empire will enable the empire to obtain sufficient oil resources from Libya, ensuring that the empire's energy resources will no longer be restricted.
It can be said that although Germany has paid huge losses in this war. However, these gains are much greater than the losses.
At the same time, the empire also began to suppress the ally of Austria-Hungary. In order to further stabilize the empire's position on the European continent in the future. Although, doing this is somewhat sorry for the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but for the benefit of the empire, it has to be done.
