Iron Germany

In the eyes of the world, although the Austro-Hungarian Empire is not the most powerful country in the world, it is still one of the most powerful countries in the world. Although, everyone thinks that the Austro-Hungarian Empire is definitely not Germany's opponent in this battle.

However, due to the influence of weather conditions and the advantage of the defensive side, many people and countries believe that the Austro-Hungarian Empire will persist for a long time. Some people even think that Germany will pay a heavy price in the battle to attack the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

However, it is a pity that their guesses were obviously wrong. The Austro-Hungarian Empire was so vulnerable in this battle.

Before Qin Tian left the General Staff Headquarters, Foreign Minister Wahit approached him.

"What's the matter? Your Excellency, Minister of Foreign Affairs. Could it be that the Austro-Hungarian Empire can't hold on anymore?" Qin Tian said with a smile.

Although, the war has only started for one day. But with the entire Austro-Hungarian Empire falling apart, the Austro-Hungarian Empire found that it was bound to lose. It is completely understandable to propose a summation to Germany at this time. After all, the current situation is already very unfavorable to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. If they continue to fight, they will not see the slightest hope of victory.

"Your Majesty, yes, the Austro-Hungarian Empire has come to seek peace. Baron Berchdold has arrived in Berlin and is on his way to the palace. I hope to see you!" Vachter said.

"What? Baron Berchdold has come? How is this possible? How could it be so fast? He came by plane?" Qin Tian thought of it all at once.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Baron Berchdold arrived in Berlin by plane and just landed at the airport." Wacht said.

Qin Tian couldn't help admiring this young Baron very much. You must know that the risk factor of aircraft in this era is still very high. If you are not careful, you may risk your own life. As a high-ranking foreign minister of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Baron Berchdold dared to fly to Germany, which is undoubtedly worthy of admiration. Of course, Qin Tian also knew that the reason why he did that was to rush for time. For the safety of one's own country, it is indeed very rare and valuable to be able to do this step.

"Your Majesty, do you want to see him?" Wahit asked.

As the emperor of the empire, Qin Tian had every right to choose to see or not to see Baron Bercidold. After all, the fate of the Austro-Hungarian Empire has already been decided long ago. In other words, it was decided when Karl I decided to betray Germany and withdraw from the Allies. Even, when Qin Tian began to plot against the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the tragic end of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was already doomed.

It's just that the people of the Austro-Hungarian Empire didn't know it. Therefore, they are still making final efforts for the destiny of the country.

"Arrange it. I'll meet him in the palace. After all, Baron Berchdold took the risk to come here by plane. If he refuses to even meet him, it would be a bit too unreasonable." Qin Tian said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Vashite nodded.

Half an hour later, in the office of the palace, Qin Tian received Baron Bercidold who had rushed all the way.

"His Majesty the Emperor, thank you for being able to receive me, for giving me and the Austro-Hungarian Empire a chance!" Baron Berchdold expressed his gratitude.

After all, right now Germany and Austria-Hungary are at war. If Qin Tian chooses not to see him, then he has nothing to do. As the emperor of the most powerful country in the world, it is only natural that he should be stronger. What's more, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is still about to be defeated by Germany.

"Your Excellency the Baron, I only saw you because of the traditional friendship between our two countries. However, because of Emperor Karl I's insistence on going his own way, our traditional friendship has disappeared!" Qin Tian said.

"I know, Your Majesty. His Majesty the Emperor of our country did a wrong thing before, which seriously affected the relationship between our two countries. Now, His Majesty the Emperor of our country already knows that he was wrong, so he sent me to see His Majesty. I hope I can ask His Majesty the Emperor for forgiveness! I hope His Majesty will forgive the behavior of the Austro-Hungarian Empire this time for the sake of the traditional friendship between our two countries. We guarantee that from now on, the Austro-Hungarian Empire will follow the lead of the German Empire and never I will not betray!" Baron Berchdold swore.

Qin Tian couldn't help laughing: "Your Excellency the Baron, although I haven't met the emperor of your country much, I still know him better. I believe that with his personality, he will never bow to the German Empire, let alone I made a mistake!"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Baron Bercidold's face, but it disappeared quickly. A diplomat like him has undoubtedly trained his face to a very thick level.

"Your Majesty, no matter what. The Austro-Hungarian Empire really realized its mistake this time. We hope that the German Empire will give us another chance!" said Baron Berchdold.

Qin Tian shook his head: "The opportunity has already been given to you. When Karl I announced his withdrawal from the Allies, we gave you three days to consider. However, you still insisted on going your own way in the end. Don't push all the responsibilities to Karl He has just inherited the throne, if all the ministers of the Austro-Hungarian Empire object, Karl I will have nothing to do with you."

A trace of despair could not help but flash across Baron Berchdold's face. He knew that Qin Tian's intention was very obvious, that is, there was no room for negotiation.

"Your Majesty, is there really no chance for the Austro-Hungarian Empire? Is the German Empire really going to perish the Austro-Hungarian Empire?" Baron Berchdold said in despair.

"Your Excellency, in order to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, I can tell you very clearly. The Austro-Hungarian Empire will no longer exist and will soon become a historical term. The states of the Austro-Hungarian Empire will all be independent. However, They will become the protectorate of the German Empire. The specific situation needs to be negotiated." Qin Tian said.

"What about Austria? The Austro-Hungarian Empire no longer exists, but Austria can always continue to exist?" Baron Berchdold asked. This is undoubtedly their last hope.

"Austria will cease to exist, and the empire will annex Austria. Austria and the German Empire were originally one. Before the Austrian-Prussian War, Austria was also a state of Germany. Now, Austria should return to the embrace of the German Empire. !” Qin Tian said with a smile.
