Chapter 2021： Talking with Americans (1/2)
(Page 1/1)
”If the British are willing to surrender and your country still requires us to start a decisive battle against the Royal Navy, I will think about your country’s starting point, whether to devour the tigers and let Germany and Britain hurt both? Any other ideas? The war is for profit, not for mere killing.” Ruprecht said.
”Can you use revenge to explain the original intention of the United States? For the United States naval officers and marines who died in the Philippine naval battle!” Taft said.
”Then why, when we fought **** battles with the Allies, your country did not participate? Then why are there still ships from your country that transport supplies for the British? This reason does not hold.” Ruprecht shakes Shook his head and said.
”This is just a business activity.” Taft frowned and said, ”In this war, we are firmly on your side. Does this still explain the problem?”
”This risk is too great for the Empire. Each capital ship costs more than £2.5 million. What is more precious is the officers and soldiers above. The officers and soldiers in each key position have served for at least 6 years. They are the Imperial Navy. The most precious wealth is the future of the Imperial Navy! I can't let them just become the victims of politics or some kind of conspiracy.” Ruprecht said.
”Well, it seems that this problem is difficult to deal with. Let's change our mind! I always think that everything in the world is the exchange of benefits! There is no such thing as loyalty in this world, just because the benefits of betrayal are not high enough, and it is not difficult. It’s just that the rewards are not rich enough! Let us treat this as a business, we made a request, and you ask for a price!” Taft took three minutes to meditate, and finally what he said surprised everyone! This is equivalent to tearing off the last skin on both sides! The so-called friendship and warmth are no longer there, only the purest exchange of interests is left!
”His Royal Highness, you have to think about it. The decision you make will directly affect the future economic situation of Bavaria and the whole of Germany. The German military is now unprecedentedly strong, but there is not enough money in your pocket! In this world, it is not. Only the sword is the decisive power! So is money!” Taft said coldly!
”I repeat, on the premise that the British meet our conditions, severely injuring the British fleet is just a bonus problem. For the empire, such a choice is optional. If you think it can be done with money All in all, then you can try how much money can make the Japanese spit out the Dutch East Indies!” Ruprecht retorted.
”His Royal Highness, Mr. Taft's words are a bit fierce and may be a bit wrong here, but we still have to see a problem, that is, if the large fleet still exists, then it is undoubtedly a problem for our two countries. Very troublesome thing. After your country’s elite fleet entered the Pacific, a huge fleet was blocked at the gate of your country. This threat is too great. If your country wants to enter the ocean, it will not be able to avoid the big fleet after all, so Severe damage to your opponent during the war is also very beneficial to the future development of your country, and have you not brought the High Seas Fleet to severely damage your opponent several times before?” General Benson jumped out to make a round.
”I understand your country’s concerns. We also know this issue. We will consider this issue if the conditions are right, but if we want to force us to do something, then it’s impossible. Empire High Seas The fleet is not a mercenary. You don't pay for this kind of thing. We will definitely do it.” Ruprecht said.
