So what if an understanding is reached? If an understanding is reached, then the Canadian problem will be almost solved! Not to mention anything else, as long as the Germans let go and allow Canadian officers and soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camp to return to Canada, the most critical problem of soldiers will be solved now. If the Germans are willing to return some weapons and equipment first, then in just a few days, these Canadian troops who have regained weapons will become an elite division. After all, although these troops were defeated, they had fought with the Germans before, and their combat effectiveness is higher than that of the United States' unexpanded army!

Of course, this does not mean that if the Americans return more than 100,000 Canadian troops back, they will not be able to defeat Canada. After all, where is the national strength of the United States? It can be won by using population and equipment, but this will not be able to make any mistakes. Therefore, letting Canada have a certain amount of troops can effectively curb the Americans' ambitions. The British already knew this before coming to negotiate. When Prince Ruprecht hinted at the threat of the Americans to Canada, the British once again strengthened this idea!

However, it is not easy to let the Germans make a hole in the issue of prisoners of war? This undoubtedly indicates that Germany has increased its negotiation conditions! Of course, the British can refuse, but the British must understand that while they refuse, they must also bear the devastating blow to Britain if they lose Canada!

"So, at this time, your country should listen to our opinions again." At this time, Grand Duke Baden picked up the documents in his hand again. After a moment of silence, Baden spoke publicly after seeing that the British people opposite did not interrupt his speech again.

"First, Britain must ced the African colony it belongs to to the German Empire. Before delivery, Britain must protect all property in the colony. The scope of property is not just infrastructure, but also industrial and mining enterprises include precious metals and other assets in the colonial government. All property cannot be transferred or destroyed. At the same time, Britain must also give up its vassal rights to countries such as Egypt. Key facilities such as the Suez Canal must also be handed over to the German Empire."

"Secondly, Britain abandoned islands, military facilities and colonies in the Mediterranean region such as Malta, Gibraltar Fortress, and other Mediterranean regions, and the materials and assets in these regions are also implemented as stipulated in Article 1."

"Third, Britain withdrew from Persia and transferred to the Empire some of the British islands in the Indian Ocean, such as Ceylon, Diego Garcia, etc. We will provide you with a list of islands and territories that need to be handed over to the Empire."

"Fourth, the British Empire needs to pay 4.5 billion pounds of compensation to the German Empire government, of which the first compensation of 1.5 billion pounds must be paid within three years, and the remaining compensation can be paid within 12 years, with the annual interest rate of compensation being around 4%.

"Fifth, Britain handed over the Shetland Islands and Orkney Islands to the German Empire."

"Sixth, Britain cannot build new warships with displacements of more than 30,000 tons and equipped with naval guns of more than 15 inches, and cannot have aircraft carriers with displacements of more than 20,000 tons. Within 10 years after the end of the war, Britain cannot build new main ships. The tonnage will also be restricted in other documents! The number of submarines cannot exceed 30! The Air Force cannot have three- and four-engine aircraft! The number of twin-engine aircraft cannot exceed 30% of the number of twin-engine aircraft of the Imperial Air Force! The number of single-engine aircraft cannot exceed 25% of the Imperial Air Force! The power of the UK developed and equipped engines cannot exceed 70% of the same type of German engine! Note that the limits on arms are also suitable for the domination and colonies to which the British Empire belongs!"

Compared with the previous one, the conditions that Germany has not changed much, that is, Germany has not expanded much of the requirements for the colonies. Article 4 increased the amount of compensation to 4.5 billion, while the interest rate remained unchanged. Article 5 aimed at completely including the entrances and exits of the North Sea under Germany's control, and also had a springboard to launch an attack on the northern part of the UK. As for Article 6, it is naturally a restriction on British arms!

To be honest, this arms restriction is much lighter than the restrictions on Germany in the historical treaty of the Allies on Versailles. After all, the situation in Britain is much better than that of Germany back then. Germany had no choice but to have no choice. Civil war broke out in the country and couldn't even eat enough. What about Britain? At least they knew that they would not be destroyed! Therefore, Germany cannot use arbitrarily weakening of British arms, and this weakening is time-efficient and cannot always work!

Think about it, in history, Germany could re-arm its air force by engaging in civil aircraft, competition aircraft and cooperation with foreign countries without allowing the air force to retain it. The same is true for the British. As long as there is a country willing to help, the British Air Force can continue to develop.

Ruprecht also took some thought to limit the performance of the aircraft. First of all, the British cannot own any 4-engine aircraft! This is the case for both bombers and civilian aircraft! This eliminates the possibility of the British developing 4-engine heavy bombers with the idea of ​​civil aviation. The strategic bombing of the 2nd War is so terrifying that the Crown Prince naturally slows down the pace of the British Strategic Air Force. Moreover, the 4-engine aircraft is not just bombers, but also very useful as anti-submarine aircraft, patrol aircraft or other aircraft.

As for the British, can they cooperate with foreign countries to build 4-engine aircraft? This is a matter of course, but it is certainly not possible now... Who can the British cooperate with? The French? It is definitely impossible. Now both sides are enemies, the Americans? It is impossible! The Russians are still fighting a civil war! The Japanese? This is theoretically possible. But when is it now? When the United States and Germany are preparing to take action against Japan, Germany will tell the Japanese through their own channels that if Japan dares to make moves to help Britain restore its military equipment at this time, then the Germans don’t know, but if they know, then the battlefield will be a situation of fighting to the death! You can weigh the Japanese.

Not to mention anything else, at least under the current circumstances, in the short term, the Japanese dare not get too close to the UK in the field of military research and development. As for other small countries, as long as they are not brainless, they should understand that they cannot offend Germany!

As for what will happen in the next ten years? If a reconciliation is reached between the United States and the United Kingdom, the so-called military restrictions will no longer exist. At that time, both sides will prepare for war and fight another battle. The so-called military restrictions are also in name only!
