"Your Majesty, the islanders have given in. It seems that General Spee's bombardment of Tokyo is still very effective, and the islanders have been scared out of their wits!" Imperial Foreign Minister Vachter smiled.
"Yes. However, I think the islanders were not frightened by our bombardment of Tokyo, but by the determination shown by General Spee. General Spee not only bombarded Tokyo, but also bombarded the palace It is estimated that the Taisho Emperor has already peed his pants in fright. The islanders should be very clear that if they do not compromise, what awaits them will be a more severe blow from the Imperial Expeditionary Fleet." Qin Tian said.
Qin Tian knew that the follow-up battle plan submitted by Lieutenant General Shi Pei was ready to attack all the coastal cities of the island countries. If Lieutenant General Spee really did that, they will make the islanders pay a heavier price for it. It is conservatively estimated that millions of islanders must have died in the shelling. In that case, it is conceivable what kind of heavy damage the island will suffer.
However, Qin Tian regretted that the islanders chose to compromise at the last moment. In his heart, he wished that the islanders would continue to be tough. In that case, even if they try to bear some infamy, the islanders will have to pay a heavy enough price for it.
The current Qin Tian is the emperor of the German Empire. But the disgust and hatred for the islanders deep in the soul can never be forgotten.
"This time the people of the island country are lucky. If they don't compromise, then we have to continue to kill in the island country!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz said.
"The islanders are self-defeating. They are so courageous that they actually want to seize the colonies of the empire and those colonies that will soon belong to the empire. This is simply asking for their own death. If the British have not been completely defeated, we It is fully capable of sending hundreds of thousands of troops to Southeast Asia and destroying the troops they deploy there." Marshal von Falkenhain also said. In everyone's opinion, it is only natural that the islanders choose to compromise. After all, their national strength is far from being comparable to that of the German Empire.
"Everyone, since the islanders have given in this time, let's let them go! Our main focus must still be on the British. Only by defeating the British can this war be considered complete. It's over." Qin Tian said. The war has been going on for a full year, though Germany is far better off than it would have been in another time and place. However, if the war continues to drag on, it will also cause considerable losses to Germany. In order not to affect the development of the empire, Qin Tian also hopes to end the war as soon as possible.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" All the ministers replied.
"However, for island countries, we still cannot relax our vigilance. Let the expeditionary fleet stay in the Far East for the time being, and urge the islanders to evacuate from our colonies and Southeast Asia. We cannot delay the time. In addition, when the troops of the island countries withdraw, apart from weapons Except for equipment and personal belongings, they cannot be taken away either. Those things in Southeast Asia belong to the empire. Islanders can’t take anything away!” Qin Tian said.
Qin Tian is well aware of how big the island country's demand for resources will be. Their occupation of Southeast Asia this time is actually to obtain sufficient resources. However, Qin Tian didn't want to see the rise of the island country. Therefore, he must do his best to obstruct the islanders. Although, Qin Tian knew that this would offend the islanders to death. When Germany fights with other countries in the future, the islanders are very likely to re-launch attacks on Southeast Asia. However, Qin Tian did not choose. He believed that the future German Empire, the future German Empire, would be even stronger than it is now. Strong enough to take on any challenge. Even if the islanders continue to choose to be enemies with Germany, Germany doesn't care, it just needs to defeat them in future wars.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Earl Tirpitz replied.
"Your Majesty, according to the latest information we have received, the relationship between the United States and the island country is heating up abnormally. The Americans even provided the island country with a loan of 200 million U.S. dollars for the people of the island country to restore their livelihood and military strength. It can be seen , the Americans are obviously uneasy and well-meaning," Wachter said.
"I bet! The 200 million U.S. dollars, the islanders will definitely use it to restore their military strength. It seems that the Americans have spared no effort to create a strong enemy for us. Perhaps, before long, the islanders will We will once again have a powerful navy. This will undoubtedly pose a great threat to us!" Qin Tian said.
"Your Majesty, no matter how the islanders develop their navy, the Imperial Navy is still the most powerful. We are not afraid of the islanders!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz said confidently.
Qin Tian nodded: "Of course, the Imperial Navy is the most powerful. However, we need to be scattered on various battlefields. I think that if the next big war breaks out, the Imperial Navy may have to operate in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Fight our enemies in the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Therefore, we need to become stronger. In the future, the Imperial Navy needs to be equipped with more powerful aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft. In this regard, it must always be at the leading level. Only Only in this way can we gain an advantage in future naval battles!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Marshal Earl Tirpitz nodded heavily. He knew that since Qin Tian valued aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft so much, this might be the only way for the Imperial Navy to win in the future.
"Everyone, the current island country may be vulnerable to the empire. However, the empire is too far away from the island country. This makes it impossible for the empire's military power to be projected to the far east. Therefore, we must keep the island country in check. A high degree of vigilance is required. I think that in the future, the island nation will definitely pose a lot of trouble to the empire. Especially the colonies of the empire around the Pacific Ocean will be attacked by them. Therefore, the empire must prepare early! "Qin Tian once again issued a warning to the important ministers of the empire.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Next, after this war is over, the empire will strengthen its military strength in Southeast Asia and the Pacific to ensure that the empire's military strength there can withstand the enemy's attack. At least, it can persist until The Reich has won other important battles and reinforcements have arrived," said Marshal von Falkenhain.
Qin Tian nodded, because of geographical reasons, Germany in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Ocean may have to take a defensive position at the beginning.
