Chapter 2249 Military and Political    2   (Page 1/1)

What the British can give the United States is not just the future war cooperation in the Far East! Once the British are willing to open up their colonial market for the Americans, then economic exchanges between them will become the cornerstone of US-UK cooperation. Ruprecht can be sure that if this step is really reached, the United States and Britain will become allies within ten years, and Germany will become enemies of the two countries! However, ten years is not enough for Germany to completely digest the gains of this war! Therefore, trying to delay the alliance between the United States and Britain is one of Germany's important strategic goals!

Well, now, let’s change the setting. If the British left a certain fleet, it could pose a certain threat to the Americans in the Far East. If the British believed that their family could still maintain their remaining colonial empire, then what would happen? If possible, the British naturally hoped that the raw materials of their colonies would only supply the British Empire, and their colonies were only their own market! Sharing the economic interests of the colonies is the worst! It is a last resort! Even if the Germans knocked open the market of the British colonies with guns, as long as the situation was not particularly bad, the British would never be willing to let the Americans come in again!

There is a saying in the East that it is better to be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow! He has also become a second-rate power. If conditions permit, then Britain will definitely want to be an independent second-rate power, rather than having to bind it to the Americans. After all, both sides were enemies, and the British also understand that if one day a war between the United States and Germany, no matter what the result is, Britain will definitely suffer anyway. Who makes you Britain the front line?

Now, if Ruprecht considers the issue from the perspective of the British, then he would do this. After the war, he would deal with a large amount of military supplies to pay the first phase of the war. As for whom the military supplies were sold to? Of course, it can only be Japan who is preparing to fight. It can be expected that the scale and consumption of this US-Japan-Pacific War is definitely not comparable to the Russo-Japanese War! How big the business opportunity is here, it can make the British laugh out loud if they think about it!

Because not only can we deal with their excess war materials, but the British can also be the only reliable supplier of Japanese foreign aid! It is definitely not a saying to earn 1.5 billion pounds in a war! With the help of the Japanese-US war, Britain can quickly recover blood, not only can repay war reparations, but also stimulate domestic industrial production. The most important thing for the British to reduce industrial production now is that they have no money and no supplies (submarine blockade). The industrial foundation is still there. In this case, as long as there is an order, it can be restored soon!

Moreover, cooperation with Japan can also ensure the security of the British Far East colony. Although the British military power after the war was definitely unable to compete with the Americans in the Pacific direction, the number one enemy of the Americans was the Japanese. As long as the Japanese did not fall, the Americans would definitely not provoke the British again! A Japanese is so difficult, and with the other British? What about the Americans who are uncomfortable with themselves?

In this way, the British will find that as long as the British-Japanese alliance is still there, the Americans will definitely not be able to attack Australia, New Zealand, Malaya, Sarawak (East Malaysia), Thailand, and Myanmar! And Japan needs the support of the United Kingdom and will not attack this. When Germany stated that it would not seek colonies and troops in the Far East, the British colonial system in Southeast Asia could continue to be maintained!

Of course, there is a basic premise for everything that the British imagined, that is, Germany allows it. So, now the question is, will Germany allow it? Ruprecht said that he would at least acquiesce! It is very simple to be willing. The British need money to compensate Germany after the war. No matter which aspect the British made profits, it is largely aided by helping the Germans make money!

Now, the British have only two ways to make money. The first way is to surrender to the Americans, and the second way is to cooperate with the Japanese. Since that is the case, Ruprecht naturally wants the second kind of money! Because the political influence of the first kind is simply disastrous for Germany! Therefore, Ruprecht naturally will not stop the British from acting! And for Germany, on the one hand, it collects Japanese funds and precious metals through the British, and on the other hand, it makes American money through war. This is money from both ends! Why not do it?

As for whether the British would consider improving US-UK relations after the war, there will definitely be people to consider, but everything has priorities. Taking Japanese money is the fastest and political stability is the highest for Britain. After all, Britain and Japan are all alliances. If the British rebelled at this time, the British-Japanese alliance is over, will the Americans definitely accept the good intentions of the British? Not necessarily! People are not satisfied with their hearts! The British feel that their sincerity has been achieved, so Americans may not think that they have sincerity has been achieved! So, the situation of stealing chickens but not lending rice!

There is a saying in later generations that governing the country is like cooking small foods. Big policy changes must be avoided as much as possible, especially when the country is in internal and external difficulties. Therefore, even if some people realize the importance of the United States and want to repair the relationship between Britain and the United States, they will never implement it immediately. After all, far-reaching water cannot quench near thirst, and there are too many unstable factors! Britain can no longer withstand the torture. As long as the Sino-British and Japanese alliance is maintained in the war, the reconciliation between Britain and the United States is far away. This is what the so-called old grudges and new hatreds mean! For the United States, cooperation between the United States and Germany is an inevitable result, and Germany can also use a better international environment to develop itself to digest the fruits of victory!

The source of all this is at the moment. Ruprecht is no longer worried about the outcome of the war. What he is worried about is how many fleets left to the British to ensure the long-term overwhelming advantage of the German Navy over the British Navy, while also making the Americans feel afraid? This is a very particular question, Ruprecht fell into deep thought.

"Admiral Hippel's telegram," said Admiral Schell in a low voice, and then sent the telegram to Ruprecht.

"Sipel did a good job." Seeing the content on the telegram, Ruprecht couldn't help but nodded slightly. "This is the quality that a senior officer should have. Under a huge advantage, he can also consider things outside the battlefield and give the information the supreme commander most. After reading it, Ruprecht handed the telegram to Admiral Schell and signaled him to see it himself.
