Chapter 2014: Confession before leaving

"In this case, the Germans are very close to their success, so what is the point of my going to Brussels to negotiate? According to the German plan, as long as the French surrender, then the British Expeditionary Force will be finished. The British will certainly accept it. Humiliating failure," Taft said.

"And the Navy." Roosevelt wrote two English letters with his fingers on the huge oak table, r, n!

"What do you mean?" Taft asked.

"The situation where the Royal Navy dominates the world must end! And the only thing that can do this is the High Seas Fleet! If killing the British Expeditionary Force can allow the British to agree to the Germans, then severely inflicting the Royal Navy is to ensure our future The key to gaining superiority in the Pacific War is now." Roosevelt said categorically.

"You mean, the British will send a fleet to help the Japanese? They have just experienced a devastating war. It is impossible for the British to fight for the Japanese!" Taft said.

"The British only need to sell their warships, planes, torpedoes and communication equipment. It is almost inevitable to do so, because Japan is an ally of the British after all. After the war, Britain also needs it urgently. Use these surplus materials in exchange for hard currency."

"Moreover, you have to remember that the Germans will never interfere in this matter. Even at sea, maybe the Germans will encounter these British warships with the Japanese flag, but they will not interfere! At least they will not take strong measures! You should be very clear about the reason! If the Germans are capable of not doing it, then the United States will not be able to stop it when it goes to war with Japan!" Roosevelt's words surprised Taft!

"Fuck, this world is crazy!" Taft spit out crazy in his heart. Although it is difficult to accept, it is actually easy to understand. Although virtue is an ally, who does not watch out for opponents? The Americans are willing to act as intermediaries in order to win over France, and even pressure the Germans. Americans do not want to see the Germans dominate all of Europe. The same goes for the Germans. Roosevelt was certain that Ruprecht would let the United States acquire the former German Pacific islands. But the Germans are definitely willing to let the Americans and Japanese fight forever across the vast Pacific Ocean! Therefore, the Germans will definitely turn a blind eye to the problem that the British may sell a large number of weapons and equipment!

The two powerhouses each have their own ideas, but they can still maintain similar views on major issues and maintain the cooperative relationship to this day. To be honest, it is really not easy! That being the case, if the Americans want to exclude the influence of the British as much as possible, then the best way is to kill with a knife and use the German high seas fleet to hit the British fleet!

"Since the Germans had this idea, it would be difficult for them to use the High Seas Fleet to attack the Great Fleet. Moreover, from the interests of the United States, if the High Seas Fleet suffers a heavy loss, it is also not a problem for us. Good news, we need the support of the German fleet." Taft said.

"Even though the German fleet suffered heavy losses, after the war, the Germans drew out a battleship squadron and two aircraft carriers. The problem was not big. The German fleet was too large, and he did not need to be guaranteed worldwide like the British. Their own naval power exists, so the Germans have very low dependence on the navy at this stage." Roosevelt paused and continued: "This aspect needs professionals to explain to you. I will arrange for Benson, Deputy Admiral of the Navy. The general will accompany you in the negotiations with the Germans, and he will tell you our limits and needs."

Having said this, Roosevelt is really tired, because in the current United States, I really can’t find a person who is both military and politically competent. And this time, the negotiations with Crown Prince Ruprecht have military and political issues. Inseparable, although he can de-allocate Taft with a navy and army staff including the black old man Pershing and General Benson, there is a difference between politicians and soldiers in terms of communication or cognition. Therefore, Roosevelt had no idea about the outcome of the talks.

"In addition, you need to pay attention. If the prince vowed to say that something will happen, you'd better concentrate on studying this issue. Even if you think it is absurd, you must not ignore it. "After hesitating for a moment, Roosevelt said.

"I don't understand what you mean. Your statement seems irrational. This is not what the president of the United States should say. Let us believe what a German crown prince said? It's really funny." Taft said.

"Sometimes, some things seem very metaphysical, but the facts in the world have proved that you just don’t have enough vision. I have been dealing with the crown prince for nearly 20 years, and sometimes we don’t get along well, and for each other The interests of the country are fighting over and under, but what makes people feel very strange is that in talking with him, the crown prince will definitely hide some things, but what he said to me was finally fulfilled! Things and two things are nothing. But in 20 years, I have never taken the initiative to deceive. For a politician, this is simply unimaginable." Roosevelt said.

"A person with such a high level can no longer be called a human, you can call him God." Taft said blankly.

"However, whether it is a **** or a devil, we always have to face it. Because I and many people ignored the prince’s advice, there were very serious consequences, very serious. It can be said that the consequences have been profound. Affected the political economy and diplomacy of the United States. We are still kidnapped by this consequence. Now at least one-third of the top political figures in the United States have the handle in the hands of the crown prince. Very serious handles can allow these people Half of them put on the handle of the gallows. Because of this mistake, the United States lost more than five figures and more than ten years of hard work." Roosevelt said with a heavy heart.

"You mean the Battle of the Philippines?" After hearing the last words of Roosevelt, Taft suddenly awakened. As early as more than ten years ago, Taft felt that there were too many questions behind the Battle of the Philippines, whether it was Japan. How did the Navy acquire so many capital ships, and the previous lack of response by the U.S. Navy, and the collective cleaning of the navy after the war. These things seem to be Liao Zhai, but now they seem to be hidden. Roosevelt's words clearly mentioned that this matter had something to do with the Germans, but he didn't dare to be too explicit. That means this matter is too complicated and too dangerous.
