On January 8, 1935, there was only one week before the Saarland referendum.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the State of Gaul, Buisson, arrived in Bolin to formally hold emergency consultations with the Third Reich on the issue of the Saarland referendum.

Hess, the ruler of the Third Reich, personally met with Buisson. He wanted to see what the Gauls wanted to do.

"Your Excellency, we have occupied the Saarland for seventeen years. Over the years, the citizens of Saarland have become accustomed to our rule and even agree with it. As far as I know, many citizens of Saarland consider themselves Gauls. Under such circumstances, holding a referendum is simply unnecessary. That would only make the Third Reich more embarrassed. Therefore, we thought it would be better to simply cancel the referendum. Comply with the wishes of the citizens of Saarland and allow Saarland to join the Gallic Kingdom. This is the best result for us!"Buisson had a smile on his face.

Hess's face suddenly turned gloomy. They say diplomats need to be thick-skinned.

However, the guy in front of him can no longer be described as thick-skinned. He is simply shameless. Extreme!

"Your Excellency, as far as I know, the citizens of Saarland are not willing to join the Gallic Kingdom as you said, right? They had long looked forward to returning to the Third Reich. Your country has made a good calculation and wants to annex the territory of the Third Reich."

Being exposed by Hess to his face like this made Buisson's face very ugly, and the smile on his face also disappeared completely.

"Your Excellency, I come here with great sincerity. Gaul wanted to live in peace with the Third Reich."Buisson's words clearly contained a threat.

"Peace? We also love peace. But if such peace has to be exchanged for our territory and citizens, we would rather not have it."Hess is very resolute on this issue.

Buisson's eyes when he looked at Hess were full of coldness.

"Your Excellency, according to the intelligence we have, your country has begun to openly violate the"Contract of Versailles". The number of your National Defense Forces has already exceeded 100,000. If we want to pursue it, we can even go to war with your country because of this!" warned Buisson.

"Sir, can I understand that this is threatening us? asked Hess.

"No, Your Excellency, this is not a threat, but an advice, a well-intentioned advice!"Buisson shook his head.

However, Hess knew that the Gauls were warning the Third Reich.

They asked the Third Reich to give up the Saarland as a sign that the Gauls would not hold the Third Reich accountable for violating the" The Treaty of Versailles.

Hess took a deep breath, and then said:"Your Excellency, the original Treaty of Versailles was originally an unequal treaty that the victorious country forced us to sign. It is unfair. This treaty has caused our people to suffer bullying"

"Your Excellency, does this mean that your country does not intend to recognize the Treaty of Versailles?"Buisson's tone became aggressive.

"No, Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief. We will not fail to recognize the Treaty of Versailles. However, I think there are some unreasonable things in it that should be revised!" Hess said.

If possible, of course he would like to tear up the"Contract of Versailles" directly.

But the strength of the Third Reich is far from being restored. If the"Contract of Versailles" is torn up now, once the war starts, the Third Reich will be It’s very disadvantageous.

Therefore, we can only tolerate it for the time being.

"Your Excellency, the treaty has been signed and it is impossible to amend it now!" said Buisson

《The greatest effect of the Treaty of Versailles was to extremely weaken the Third Reich.

This is very beneficial to the Gallic country. Of course they will not agree to the modification.

"Your Excellency, the Saarland referendum is about to take place. The people there looked forward to returning to the Third Reich. The Third Reich will never abandon them!"Hess's attitude is already obvious.

"Your Excellency, don't you think about it again?"Buisson asked.

Hess shook his head:"On this issue, there is no need to think about it. The Third Reich will never compromise!"

"Well, Your Excellency. I hope you won’t regret your choice today!"After Buisson finished speaking, he stood up and left.

Naturally, he already knew Hess's attitude, so there was no need to waste time.

Looking at the back of Buisson leaving, Hess's face turned pale.

"Damn you Gauls, you are so arrogant. Do you really think you can still bully the Third Reich at will? Mr. Bowman, tell General Bromberg that the second phase of the military expansion plan can begin!" Hess said

"Yes, Your Majesty the Governor!"Martin Bowman replied.

If there is to be a war, the second phase of the Third Reich's military expansion must be completed. In this case, the strength of the Wehrmacht will be increased to 800,000. Even when facing the Gauls, It is definitely capable of fighting and even defeating it.
