Chapter 1572
”It seems that we have encountered some trouble in the negotiation.” The prince replied very calmly, because he knew that this question could not be solved overnight, or even Roosevelt could decide. But Germany can wait. Because of this plane, the environment in the United States is much worse than in history. Without the open door policy of the Far East, it is difficult for Americans to penetrate the Far East. Africa is even more controlled by the original European powers. The only influential place is South America, but here, it also faces the pressure of European powers.
”If we can reach an agreement on this issue, then we can at least get the Japanese out of Guinea!” The prince took another bargaining chip and placed it on the balance!
”This is not fair. According to the previous agreement between the United States and Germany, the German government should help the United States regain the original Bismarck Territory (the northeastern region of Guinea) after the war. With this foothold, the U.S. Army can fight independently, and it is far from Japan. The main naval ports are far away, and the U.S. Navy is enough to deal with the Japanese navy.” Benson said to the side.
”Then I will wait and see.” The prince said indifferently. Are you kidding me? In the island operations of the 2nd World War, the Americans had an absolute firepower advantage and the blood flowed into rivers, let alone now? Moreover, the island of Guinea is very large. As the front line deepens inland, it will sooner or later be separated from the support of naval guns. Is it now that the US Army is fighting against the Japanese Army that has experienced the World War? The prince is not optimistic!
”Fuck! This obviously looks down on the army and navy of the United States of America!” Both Roosevelt and Benson were very dissatisfied with the prince's attitude. Looking down is not the most important thing. More importantly, this attitude does not seem to go on. Roosevelt's mission here is half completed! It is confirmed that Germany has no ambitions in the Far East, but for the issue of jointly attacking Japan, the Germans are asking too much! And it seems that there is no plan to reduce prices.
”It is still very early before the end of the war. We still have a lot of time to discuss this matter in detail. Moreover, I just received a telegram from Berlin recently. It seems that General Pershing is going to be stationed in Germany for a period of time. I think, I have seen it. After the war in Europe, your country should have a general understanding of the combat effectiveness of the main participating countries in this war. At that time, we can discuss some details in detail.”
”And I need to point out that if the US and Germany can use the US dollar and the mark as a means of settlement at the same time, it will also be very helpful for American companies to enter Europe. The empire's territory in Africa will definitely expand after the war. . So these are two big markets.” The prince is ready to end today's talks.
The prince intends to maintain the basic borders of the Western Front after the war, but it does not mean that certain countries will not bleed! It may be difficult to obtain colonies from Britain and France, but it is perfectly possible to force Belgium to hand over the Congo! In terms of economic value and asters, the Congo is more valuable than all the colonies previously acquired by Germany! Gold, diamonds, copper mines, various non-ferrous metals and abundant forestry resources are definitely a cornucopia in Europe!
It would be difficult for the Germans to develop this area of more than 2 million square kilometers by themselves, so it would require the intervention of strong capital. The Americans would definitely be interested in this. Well, if the development of the Congo is the condition, the Americans will always Have you carefully considered the prince’s suggestion?
The strategic temptation has ended. Although the Americans are not satisfied with this result, they are relieved. They are still confident and believe that in the final stage of the war, they can force the Germans to make concessions by doing some tricks in aid.
