Chapter 2007 The so-called degree
If the British defected to the United States, then the French might also defect to the United States, because no matter what, the hatred between France and Germany has accumulated quite deep. If the French could see a chance to defeat Germany, they would not give up. Therefore, if they insisted on completely destroying Britain, the result might be that Britain and France defected to the United States after the war! Then it led to an alliance between Britain, France and the United States!
Therefore, the prince's previous plan has always been to describe his attitude towards Britain with heavy damage rather than complete destruction. On the one hand, it is difficult to achieve, and on the other hand, it is because some uncertainties will lead to very serious consequences! Therefore, even if it is to severely damage the British fleet, it must leave some things to guard the British, so that the British feel that they can still wander among first-class countries. Therefore, they will not easily turn to the Americans who have hatred with them! Only such Britain will break with the French, thus giving Germany the opportunity to subdue the French. The United States still does not have a strong ally in Europe!
Even Ruprecht had already thought about how to recover the blood of the British after the war! For Germany, after the end of World War I, Germany could completely recover the blood through military aid to the Americans, and the British's recovery method was similar! That is, to recover the blood through Britain's support for Japan! And Ruprecht would not interfere too much in this regard.
This is a balance! Germany supports the United States, Britain supports Japan, and then fights a limited large-scale war in Japan's home court, the Far East. The result has been thought about, that is, the United States has a certain advantage. The United States can gain a foothold in the Far East. The colonies that Germany sold to the United States must return to the hands of the Americans. Part of the Dutch East India must also return to the hands of the Netherlands. In this way, the spheres of influence between the United States and Japan can be intertwined. Only in this way can the confrontation between the United States and Japan last long, and only in this way can the United Kingdom support Japan for a long time when Japan has a certain chance of winning.
In the US-Japan war after the war, the British could provide various supplies, military equipment and even warships! Japan made too much money in the past two years, so it needed to spit out a part of it, and this part was given to the UK.
By the way, there is another important issue, that is, try every means to let Britain participate in Japan's invasion of the Russian Far East! The Japanese are not stupid. They will not put all eggs into a basket if they have a certain strength. In the war, the Japanese completed the southward route. After the war, the southward route might be over, the Japanese Army has launched an attack on the Russian Far East. Therefore, in addition to being able to sell Japanese naval equipment, the British can also provide army equipment! More than 1.5 million British Army equipment can also be cashed out!
Moreover, there is another advantage in Britain supporting Japan to attack the Russian Far East, that is, it can make the new Soviet Union full of hatred towards Japan and Britain. As long as Japan still controls the Russian Far East, it will not disappear. What Germany needs to do is to guide this hatred and make the closeness between Britain and the Soviet Union more difficult after the war! As long as the three countries of the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union cannot fully cooperate, the prince will not be afraid of any other enemies!
This is the so-called degree. Once it exceeds a certain degree, it may lead to some unpredictable consequences. The struggle and cooperation between the United States and Germany will be fought and cooperated completely, and a complete breakup is a zero-sum game. If Germany forces too much, the British will really fall, and it may also be the result of zero-sum!
It is true that the prince wants to destroy the British Expeditionary Force and make a generation of British pay a heavy price. It is true that he wants to command the high seas fleet to completely damage the British fleet in a battle, thereby gaining control of the entire British Southern Africa and the Suez Canal. However, the prince really does not intend to completely break the British into pieces! Ruprecht needs the British to continue to maintain their so-called arrogance and independence, the longer the better!
As long as they do not choose to stand with the Americans, Germany is safe. Even if there are three hills within Germany, it doesn’t matter if there are constant open and secret struggles! But if Britain and the United States stand together, it should be a precursor to the outbreak of the Second Century! And at that time, it is the time when the prince commands the unprecedentedly powerful Germany to kill Britain in one fell swoop!
"We can give control of the Exodus. The Belgian issue can also be handed over to your country and the Belgian government for consultation." Belford squeezed out a few words from his teeth. His trembling body revealed the anxiety and fear in his heart!
"However, after we spent so much effort and lost millions of lives on the Western Front, can we only exchange for a vassal country far away in Africa? Are you kidding? Moreover, we can take it with a saber in Egypt sooner or later, so you don't have to give such a gift that must belong to the empire as a condition." The prince sneered.
"The northern part of Sudan can also be considered. It is already a good result for your country to gain control of Egypt through a war. This is the bottom line of the empire. In any case, we will not give in anymore." Belfort said.
"This condition is very different from our expectations. I even think the value of the British army over 1.5 million in the European continent exceeds this condition! The British government has never established such a large-scale army. There are only about 45 million people in the UK. Do you think about the price after losing 1.5 million troops? A whole generation of British people, the most bloody and dedicated British men, will never be able to return to their hometowns. At that time, let alone confront other major powers, you may not even be able to get enough colonial troops, right?"
"Go back and tell the British government what I think, we want British South Africa and Rhodenia, we have no idea about the North Sudan area in the Sahara Desert! If it weren't for the Suez Canal, we wouldn't have any ideas about Egypt! Don't use useless places to excuse us." Ruprecht said.
"You don't realize that Germany wants too much, so you don't even think about whether you can eat it?" Belfort sneered. "This is an unacceptable Highness! If you still insist, then we can only stop the negotiation!"
"As you wish! The war is not over yet. Both the Allies and the Allies can fight for the bargaining chips in their hands during this period." The prince said with a smile. "Then stop the peace talks for the time being, and the two of them will embark on their way home tomorrow."
