The Third Reich actively began to deal with some of the consequences of the Saarland referendum, and Gaul, another country involved in the matter, was also extremely concerned about it.

Albert Lebrun, the ruler of the Gallic Kingdom, convened Prime Minister Pierre Frandan, Minister of Foreign Affairs Boisson, Chief of Defense General Wei Gang, Chief of Army Staff General Gamelin and others to discuss countermeasures.

"Gentlemen, according to the provisions of the original treaty, the Saarland is about to hold a referendum. Although for more than ten years we have been trying to assimilate those residents of Saarland. But unfortunately, our assimilation policy did not succeed. Those people are still extremely hostile to us. Plus the Third Reich's propaganda there. We can foresee that in this referendum, the vast majority of Saarland residents will probably choose to return to the Third Reich."Albert Lebrun was a little worried.

"Those Germanic people are so stubborn that it is indeed very difficult to assimilate them. We made a lot of efforts, but ultimately failed."Prime Minister Pierre Frondin looked frustrated.

"So what should we do? Is it possible to just watch the Third Reich regain Saarland?"Foreign Affairs Minister Boisson asked

"Saarland is very important. Not only does it have developed heavy industry, but its strategic location is also extremely important. Once the Third Reich regains the Saarland, it will achieve great development and pose a huge threat to us!"General Wei Gang, Chief of Defense Staff, said

"But now that the referendum is coming, we can't refuse to hold a referendum, right? In that case, it will cause a huge blow to our credibility."Albert Lebrun frowned.

"Your Excellency, from a military perspective, continuing to occupy Saarland will be very beneficial to us! Therefore, we must try our best to continue to control Saarland."General Gamelin, Chief of Army Staff, said.

Albert Lebrun nodded, he naturally knew this.

"Gentlemen, the Saarland is very important to us, so we naturally have to find a way to annex the Saarland. However, the Third Reich would definitely not agree, and would even strongly oppose it. So, how can we achieve our goals? asked Albert Lebrun

"Your Excellency, if we send more troops into Saarland and occupy this place by force. If we don't give in even in the face of international condemnation, then the Third Reich will have nothing to do with us."Admiral Wei Gang said.

This may damage the reputation of the Gallic country, but it can benefit them.

For a country, reputation is naturally very important.

However, the more important thing is undoubtedly the benefits.

If Being able to occupy Saarland will not only enhance the strength of the Gallic Kingdom, but also weaken the strength of the Third Reich. It is undoubtedly a great thing that kills two birds with one stone.

"If a conflict, or even a war, breaks out as a result, can we defeat the Third Reich in one fell swoop?"Albert Brun asked.

As the ruler of Gaul, he must prepare for the worst.

"Your Excellency, the Third Reich may not dare to go to war with us for the Saarland. Even if a war breaks out, they will not win. The current Gaul Kingdom has a total of 800,000 troops. Much more so than the Third Reich."Admiral Wei Gang looked very confident.

"But according to the intelligence we have obtained, the Third Reich has recently begun secretly expanding its military. Prime Minister Pierre Frondin reminded

"Yes, the Third Reich, like rats, secretly began to expand its army. That is simply shameful. Their behavior is undoubtedly a blatant violation of the treaty they signed. We can even use this as a condition to go to war with the Third Reich!"Admiral Wei Gang said.

However, the situation in Gaul is also very bad now. The economic crisis has had a great impact, causing Gaul to suffer heavy losses. Until now, it has not been able to get out of it.

"Your Excellency, we can also unite the Kingdom of Flanders. Although the Kingdom of Flanders was only a small country, they were also hostile to the Third Reich. Be extremely wary of them. If we unite with them, we can suppress the Third Reich!"Admiral Gamelin also said

"Very good, if this is the case, then we will be invincible."Albert Lebrun was very satisfied.

"Your Excellency, Minister-General of Foreign Affairs, on behalf of the State of Gaul, go to Bolin and inform Hess. Let them agree to cancel the Saarland referendum and agree to the annexation of Saarland to the Gallic State. Otherwise, we will go to war with them on the grounds that they have broken the treaty!" said Albert Lebrun.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Buisson replied.

They all knew that this was just to intimidate the Third Reich.

If the Third Reich was frightened, everything would be easy to solve.

But the most critical issue is, will the Third Reich be frightened? Scared?
