Chapter 409 Sino-German Treaty

Yanjing.

In the German embassy, the guards glanced at the street coldly and did not feel tired at all. Because the top commander of the German [***] team was staying here these days, everyone was asked to fight for twelve points.

But contrary to the guard, Little Mochi sat in the room, frowning at the window, with indescribable fatigue on his face.

The reason comes from the proposal on the table on the exchange of technology and the signing of the new Sino-German agreement proposed by the other party after he and Li Mo met.

The core technology of precision machining with radio!

It's not that he didn't know the importance of no wires. On the contrary, when he visited the Royal Guards in Yanjing that day, the other party contacted Lushun by radio and fed back the movement of the cruiser Marquis Bismarck parked there with his visit. The content and the German conveyed through the telegraph station with the telephone [* **] When the official's description was exactly the same, he knew that Germany must have a radio.

Even offered a sky-high price of dozens of tons of gold for this!

But unexpectedly, Li Mo not only refused, but also simply told himself that each radio sender was equipped with a special anti-disassembly device. Once it was not dismantled according to the procedure, the explosives placed inside would explode immediately.

Obviously, the arsonist was not as simple as he knew from the outside world at all. He directly gave up the idea of his secret acquisition. After blocking the last road, he forced himself to return to the negotiation table. Although he wanted to go through other channels, God knew that the dense screws on the shell had to be removed first. Question mark In case of a problem, Germany will no longer be able to obtain much-needed technology.

Then he put forward a condition, which made him uncertain about using core machining technology such as high-precision machine tools and sending 3,000 corresponding advanced technical workers to China in exchange for radios.

In terms of the total amount of manufacturing and technology, Germany is not as good as the United Kingdom, not as good as France, and perhaps worse than the United States. However, Germany dominates in precision machine tools and machining technology. The most important thing is that after years of hard work, Germany has trained a group of high-quality skilled workers in machining. As a result, precision machine tool technology has made rapid progress over the years.

Now, Li Mo wants to take all these things for himself through a radio, which is as if you have saved money for a lifetime, but in the end, it is as unacceptable as to share wealth with a person who is an enemy or a friend and can't be separated, and the most important thing is that he still needs 3,000 senior technical workers. It is even more unacceptable for Hua to help him train workers, which means that once the Chinese learn those technologies, there will be nothing more to restrain them!

In addition to technology, the near-alignment plan he proposed called the Draft Sino-German Strategic Agreement needs to be carefully considered by Germany. Although it is a little strange about this strange name, even the word strategy knows the meaning of children, which means that once this agreement is signed, Germany's future plans have It may need to be modified.

This is a thorny big problem. Germany needs a radio, and it also needs a means to contact officers at all levels anytime and anywhere. Although the European telegraph network is developed, if there is a war in the future, I'm afraid no one will know if there will be a problem. Just like Siberia at this moment, the Russians even I can't contact even a telegraph station.

Technology can also convince His Majesty the Emperor, because Xinhua is no longer inferior to Germany in some aspects. Even if it is not a radio, they have begun to lead the world in terms of internal combustion engines, large generators, motors, etc., especially the latter two, which are now the largest machines in Xinhua. The annual income of machinery exports alone is as high as 200 million marks, about 70 million blue coins. With the increasing application of electricity, the export volume is increasing, and even Germany can only buy patents and make it by itself.

But it is absolutely impossible to send people. The processing technology of those motors is not high, and it is completely different from large sets of high-precision machine tools and processing technology. According to Xinhua's current processing capacity, it will take at least three or four years to fully absorb the technology to be handed over to them, but if someone is sent to teach them, I'm afraid it will be time. It will be shortened to two or even ten years, which means that Li Mo has the opportunity to stand on Germany's shoulders and quickly make up for the last shortcoming.

Compared with technology, what really makes it difficult for him to make up his mind is this strategic agreement, because if he signs the agreement, it is equivalent to declaring that he has agreed with the Chinese to join the game, which is simply unimaginable, just like a group of white people talking about business with a yellow race, but being occupied by a large part!

There is no doubt that Xinhua is an increasingly important country, even surpassing Germany in some aspects, but so far, he is actually a bystander. Although he has acquired Luzon, Borneo, and even changed the distant Micronesia to Daxia, even if they are now on a huge He is fighting in the frozen earth, but he is not a real gainer. At best, he is just the hegemon of the Far East, because their hands can't reach as far as South America and Africa are far away!

Germany is actually not the biggest beneficiary, but compared with Li Mo, it is an important country in Europe. Even the British sometimes have to consider Germany, so the rise of Germany has made Europe very worried. In this case, Germany proposed to add a knife on the table, the object is Will a yellow man attract the hatred of the whole white world? Will the door that Germany has finally opened be closed again?

No one knows that even if he is the German Chief of Staff and the core person, he can't predict how the world will change after the signing of this agreement.

This will be the biggest challenge for Germany and even the world, because everyone may need to learn to listen to a voice from the East!

Little Mochi took a deep breath, picked up the document and stood up. He could not and had no right to make such a decision, but Germany needed radio technology, so the news must be sent back as soon as possible for the Prime Minister's Parliament and His Majesty to make a decision.

Half an hour later, a series of telegraph ticks began to be sent from the special line opened by Yanjing Telegraph Station for diplomats from various countries, and transmitted back to Germany through Hong Kong, bypassing half the world.

"Old and slow, and easy to leak." After sending the telegram, little Mauch pinched his nose and suddenly said such a sentence to Ludendorff.

Ludendorff didn't know why the Chief of Staff said so, but he clearly knew that in those days, the number of telegrams to and from Germany and Xinhua increased sharply. In just half a month, Germany spent more than hundreds of thousands of blue coins on this item, so that the staff of the telegraph station got a lot of money during that time. The bonus.

Perhaps at this moment in Yanjing, Xiao Maoqi is the least concerned about the outside world. He is not interested in the news that the Russian fleet is about to leave in Europe. In his opinion, Russia has actually lost the war, because the power gap between the two countries has been There has been a fundamental reversal. In addition to Shanghai's leading of tens of thousands of tons in total steel production, both technology and manufacturing, Russia has been thrown away a lot.

After 20 days of telegrams, little Mochi finally got the final reply. When he took the telegram from Ludendorff, he frowned and raised his eyebrows.

"Rudendorff, do you know what I have gained since I came to China?" When Xiao Maoqi walked to the car at the door with a reply, he suddenly turned his head and asked.

Ludendorff shook his head and didn't know how to answer, but little Mochi's eyes flashed: "In the old back of every empire, a new empire is destined to be born!" If Germany wants to get the world, it must step on the corpses of the countries that control the world!"

"There is no second way!"

On September 25, the German Chief of General Staff and Chen Ping, Chief of the General Staff of the Xinhua Army, held a closed-door meeting in Yanjing. No one knows what happened behind the closed door, but one thing is certain, that is, Germany was the first to make a change at the moment of the isolation of Xinhua in Europe.

In the new garden, Li Mo opened the newly signed Sino-German secret agreement brought by Li Enfu and Chen Ping.

According to this agreement, Germany will automatically obtain radio technology after purchasing 1,000 units at the price of 10,000 blue coins per radio telegraph machine. At the same time, Xinhua will also automatically obtain all production and processing technology after purchasing 1,000 high-precision machine tools. The whole transaction process will be completed within half a year.

At the same time, Germany will provide three million tons of affordable steel to Xinhua in the next five years, and sell three sets of million tons of steelmaking equipment at the same time, in exchange for a blue and white fish-class submarine and all technical materials, as well as the extremely important copper-coated steel production technology for Germany, which lacks steel resources in the colonies.

In addition, according to the agreement, the Chinese and German militaries will also establish a normalized exchange mechanism. The navy and army conduct military exercises every two years, and can send observers to study each other. For the first time, it is stipulated in writing that the two countries take the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean as the control area respectively, no matter which party encounters in the other's control area. Third-country attacks have the obligation to provide logistical support and military protection.

However, on the issue of sending senior skilled workers to China, Germany did not let go, and even did not hesitate to withdraw from the negotiations, which also made Li Mo see the real mind of Europe. None of these countries really want to see the rise of China!

On the most critical issue of whether to disclose the agreement, Germany has also adopted a vague policy, saying that it will make a decision according to the future situation.

In the final analysis, although Russia is second-rate in Europe, it is a force that cannot be ignored in the white world after all. Geopolitics also determines that Germany will not jump out to support Xinhua at this time, not to mention that Germany is not optimistic about this confrontation, especially when Russia's huge fleet is about to set off.

Li Mo closed the document. For him, it was almost a reply when he sold the Chinese ship. The conservative Germans still did not see the world clearly. As a mainland country that has left the sea for a long time, although Germany's technology and industry has led the world, their strategic vision is not very smart, that is, Even from the observation before and after World War I, there are still contradictions in the country's strategy.

But this is enough for me. The first generation of radio technology has long been in the sale plan. It can be exchanged for a thousand much-needed high-precision machine tools and technologies, which has made up for one of its biggest shortcomings. As for the herring-class submarine and copper-coated steel technology, the former also belongs to Tao. The latter is a sharp weapon for the resource-poor Germany for a few more years. If synthetic ammonia technology hadn't been too important, Master Li might have packed it long ago, so that Germany would have got rid of its dependence on Chilean saltpetre and using a large amount of bird droppings in its hands to make gunpowder eight years earlier.

Three million tons of affordable steel and three sets of million tons of steelmaking equipment not only solve the problem of the current shortage of domestic steel, but also make the most important steel plant in the development of the northwest have been implemented, which has greatly accelerated Xinhua's pace to catch up with the world's steel power.

Whether now or in future generations, steel is the most important and basic strategic resource. A country's steel production determines the country's potential, so after purchasing a large amount of steelmaking equipment from the United States, this agreement still makes him very happy.

"As for the non-disclosure of the contract for the time being, huh! One day, Germany will come and beg for an alliance!" After Li Mo sneered and returned the signed agreement to Li Enfu, he slowly walked to the window in their eyes and asked, "When will the Russian fleet leave?"

"Three days later."
