January 5, 1942, AD 2783.
Hanking, Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"The Third French Republic is about to fall" "The restoration of Napoleon III, whom we supported, is in sight" “This time it was really a big deal and it worked.”
Lu Zhengxiang, Gu Weijun and a group of senior officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were excitedly discussing the situation in France.
This large-scale diplomatic mediation is something that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is very proud of.
It gives officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs a feeling of "taking the sun and the moon, shrinking thousands of mountains, and twisting the universe."
In this Franco-German Geneva Treaty, France promised to forever give up its claims to sovereignty over the Alsace-Lorraine region and would no longer ask for it from Germany.
In the history of the original time and space, the Alsace-Lorraine region was captured by France from Germany after World War I, including the Moselle Province of Lorraine, the Meurthe Moselle Province, the Vosges Province and Alsace Province.
The Upper and Lower Rhine provinces of Sri Lanka cover a total of 25,616 square kilometers.
However, history is different in this plane.
There is no Treaty of Versailles, so this place has always been controlled by Germany.
France has always claimed sovereignty over this area.
Of course, it is just rhetoric.
To be fair, Alsace-Lorraine is actually a German-speaking area, and 90% of the people here speak German.
Therefore, France is very reluctant to claim sovereignty here.
Therefore, strictly speaking, instead of losing nothing on the French mainland this time, the French actually made a profit.
Because Germany took out Belgium and shared it with the French.
This is the entire Wallonia region except Liège Province, and 12,982 square kilometers of land was assigned to France.
The land was acquired as rent from a French land contract.
Of course, the losses in the colonies were great.
Morocco was ceded to Italy, and French Libya, Niger, Burkina Faso, Cote d'Ivoire, and Benin were ceded to Germany.
There is also the acquiescence to the occupation of the Central African Republic by Germany and the Soviet Union.
And even the remaining West Africa and North Africa will be very difficult to preserve.
The United States and Britain now have large armies stationed in these places.
Of course, it is not easy for the Germans to get these places.
They also have to compete with Britain and the United States.
In addition, Germany's military bases in the coastal areas of northern France will not be returned to France for the time being.
They will use this to fight the British.
Of course, these territories were originally controlled by the Germans.
If they returned them later, there was nothing the French could do.
Under China's mediation, the Germans were also willing to cooperate in a show as part of the rent.
That is to say, they quietly withdrew from Paris a few days ago, allowing Napoleon VI to act out the drama of the emperor's return.
Then the Germans gradually left the French cities they occupied and were taken over by the royalist armed "French National Salvation Army".
The officials of the Third Republic could only stare at this.
They wanted to accept it, but they didn't have any troops.
Originally, under the operation of de Gaulle and other generals, the troops on the southern front were all working hard and marching slowly.
Often by the time they arrive at a city, the "French National Salvation Army" has "recovered" it for several days.
As a result, the number of supporters of Napoleon VI was increasing at a terrifying speed.
Judging from the current public opinion polls, the restoration of the French Third Reich is already a certainty. 70% of the army, 70% of the financial groups, and 60% of the people support the restoration of the monarchy.
The remaining ones who have not expressed their stance are just waiting for the limelight.
There are only two or three kittens who are really die-hard loyalists to the republican government, and there is no way to save it.
Today's French Congress is a sign.
Most members have passed a motion of no confidence in the government.
The republican government is almost finished.

"France now has a population of about 37.5 million and a land area of 6.28 million square kilometers; Spain has a population of about 26.4 million and a land area of 5.04 million square kilometers.
If the two countries were combined, the combined number would be a country with a population of 64 million and a land area of 11.32 million square kilometers.
It’s a big country with 1,000 kilometers,” Kafur said with a beaming face.
"It's a pity that the population is a bit small.
Germany's population is almost double theirs," Gu Weijun said.
"It doesn't matter.
Germany is in the midst of World War Four.
It's impossible for them to devote all their energy to dealing with France.
The Soviet Union to the east is not a peace-loving country."
Lu Zhengxiang stroked his beard and said with a smile on his face: "Moreover, France and Spain have a lot of immigrants in the Americas, and they can also launch a return movement, especially France.
They have 10 million French people in the United States and Canada.
Most of these people are supporters of the royal party.
As long as Napoleon is restored, they will be very popular.
Willing to return” "With the presence of the United Franco-Spanish Empire, the German Empire and the Soviet Union, the situation in Europe will basically be balanced."
Kafur nodded.
"Minister Ka, how is His Majesty Napoleon going to repay us this time?
Is it all the French Indian Ocean Islands?"
"Well, we have to add their Antarctic territory, which is Adele Land.
Of course, in order to show face to our Emperor, these lands were purchased in name," Kaful said with a smile.
"A total of about 200 million yuan, and there is also a low-interest aid loan of 5 billion yuan to help them rebuild.
After they get this money, they will use it to buy our products and services.
Of course, it is not for now government, this is the political achievement our President Wen gave to His Majesty the Emperor, hahahaha."
"Hahahaha" everyone laughed.
This is the reward China deserves.
The French do not have many islands in the Indian Ocean.
During World War I, France transferred the Seychelles and Mauritius Islands to China.
Now there are two large islands left, Reunion with 2512 square kilometers and Mayotte with 374 square kilometers.
There are also 5 groups of islands in the central and northern parts of the Indian Ocean, namely Indian Reef, Europa Island, Glorious Islands, New Juan Island, and Tromlin Island.
The total area is less than 39 square kilometers and there are no permanent residents.
In the southern part of the Indian Ocean, there is a series of islands in the waters near Antarctica, including the Kerguelen Islands, also known as the Melancholy Islands, which consist of more than 300 islands and cover approximately 7,215 square kilometers.
The Crozet Islands consist of 20 islands and cover approximately 352 square kilometers. , Amsterdam Island and St.
Paul Island are about 61 square kilometers.
The total area of these islands is approximately 10,553 square kilometers, and there are approximately more than 400 islands.
As for Adélie Land, the Antarctic territory claimed by France, this territory is quite large, covering an area of about 500,000 square kilometers, but it is not recognized by any country in the world.
This land is located in the corner of Antarctica near the Indian Ocean and is mainly an ice plateau.
There were only penguins and posters on it, not a single French person.
However, once China gets this land, it is not afraid that other countries will not let it go.
Wen Desi planned to get the entire Antarctica.
Anyway, now that Oceania is a base, dyeing Antarctica is a matter of course.
Moreover, the major powers have little interest in this glacier continent.
If China wants to occupy it, no one will grab it blindly.
The worst thing is to spend some money to buy it.
Yes, Antarctica is definitely not easy to develop.
Wen Desi has no plans to develop it.
There are still so many sites in the country that need to be developed.

Even if Antarctica is to be developed, it will have to be put very far back.
Wen Desi's intention was to occupy it first and then clarify the sovereignty first, and just set up a few inspection stations at ordinary times.
Just leave it when not in use, and use it again when you need it, so as not to quarrel with others.
According to Wen Desi's recent plans, Antarctica currently mainly provides aquatic resources and specialty "glaciers".
Yes, it is none other than the glaciers that can be seen everywhere in Antarctica.
These things are the greatest resources Antarctica can provide in the near future.
As for why we need glaciers, it’s all for Oceania.
As we all know, Oceania is very short of water.
Except for a few places such as the south and the eastern part of the Great Dividing Range, other places such as the central and northwest are extremely short of water.
If there is a lack of water, nothing can be done well.
So Wen Desi decided to go to Antarctica.
He plans to build several super projects in Oceania, which will be composed of several artificial canals running through the interior of Oceania as the backbone, plus various large and small water pipeline networks and a water vapor network composed of hundreds of artificial lakes.
This is " "Southern View Oasis Plan".
The purpose of this super project is to transform the climate of Oceania.
It is mainly divided into two parts, the Eastern Project and the Western Project.
The Eastern Project is to open several water vapor channels in the Great Dividing Range to increase precipitation in the Great Artesian Basin.
In this way, the rainfall in the entire Great Artesian Plain will more than double, and there will no longer be worries about rivers drying up.
The other is the Western Project, which mainly aims to transform the deserts in the central and northwest.
Because there are central mountain ranges such as the MacDonnell Ranges and Musgrave Range in central Australia, simply opening up water vapor channels will only increase precipitation in the Great Artesian Basin, but will not improve the climate in the central and northwest much.
This requires another way to build a series of artificial lakes in the deserts of the central and northwest.
A large artificial lake is built every few hundred kilometers, and a small and medium-sized artificial lake is built every few hundred kilometers.
The evaporation of the lake is used to create relatively humid microclimate areas.
Relying on this method, increasing the water vapor in the inland, coupled with the biological black technology achievements of the 23rd century, the environment of Oceania will be gradually improved step by step.
To build these lakes, a large amount of water is needed.
It is simple to use seawater directly, but then the surrounding soil will become saline-alkali soil.
But if we use fresh water, there is not so much fresh water in southeastern Oceania, and Antarctica has the most fresh water in the world.
So Wen Desi planned to make use of those glaciers.
At that time, he established several large marine reservoirs in southern Oceania and used large tugboats to drag the glaciers over.
After the glacier arrives, the tugboat drives out, closes the gate, and evacuates the seawater inside.
After the iceberg melts, fresh water becomes available.
Large water pumps are then used to transport this fresh water to artificial lakes.
In order to prevent evaporation on the way, these canals will be made into closed underground canals or underground pipe networks
