2268 The American plan 3

"If it weren't for an unexpected incident, the United States and Britain might be the best targets of alliance. Although the British had vast colonies, they were not too involved in European affairs. They have always pursued the policy of balanced power on the European continent. In fact, we are also the recipients of this policy. But now, the Allies have failed, and we have created a powerful country that we cannot control. This is a national strategic failure." Robert Lanxin said with some regret.

"However, there is never a drug to sell in the world. The British themselves ruined their relationship with us and deeply hurt the United States. Then we can't blame us for cooperating with the Germans. If we say it wrong, it is also the British's fault. It has nothing to do with us. Even now, if someone dares to publish articles about cooperation between the United States and Britain in newspapers, he will receive an email with bullets when he returns home!"

"To a certain extent, we are also victorious countries! Now, we can stand by the Germans and divide the interests of the British Empire after the collapse of the British Empire! What a wonderful thing this is. We did not participate in the war, but only gained huge benefits with money and supplies, not only from the British, but also from the Germans!" Roosevelt interrupted the two of them and said sternly.

"Don't tell me about the threats of the Germans. I know this better than you. I know the powerful power of Germany and the foresight of the crown prince! In the United States, no one knows the terror of the other party better than me! I can say responsible that you are not the opponent of the crown prince! The Germans may indeed be our enemies in the future, but that is what the younger generation must do. The task of our generation is to create a good foundation for them!" Roosevelt said.

"Mr. President, I cannot agree with your point of view on this issue. The country needs a long-term strategy. They are the policy to guide our actions. Germany has now revealed their hideous fangs. Germany is like a growing lion. We must limit them before it grows up. You should be clear that Europe is the center of civilization in this world. If this center is placed under the control of a country, then even if the whole world joins forces, it may not be an opponent. And now the Germans are ready to take over Africa. At that time, Europe, West Asia, and Africa are all under the control of the German Empire, what should we rely on to stop the Germans?" Taft showed a rare toughness!

"Haha, you compare Germany to a growing lion. Well, this metaphor is quite reasonable. So I want to ask, what do you think the United States of America is? A bald-headed sea eagle that is already full of wings?" Roosevelt's words showed a sarcastic meaning!

"What are you thinking?! We fought a Philippine war with the Japanese, and tens of thousands of American navy and army officers and soldiers were corpses thousands of miles away! A few years ago, we fought against the Japanese on the sea near the former German colony. What was the result?! When Britain, France and Russia were unable to look east, we didn't even have the courage to fight against Japan alone! When the Japanese occupied the Dutch East India, what were you doing?! Do you know how much the United States of America's military strength is? Even Japan, a country that cannot rank in Europe, is difficult to defeat alone. What do you think the United States has the confidence to fall with Germany now?" Roosevelt refuted mercilessly.

Is the United States strong? Naturally, it is powerful! There is no doubt about this. Historically, when the Americans decided to participate in World War II, Churchill thought he would win, and the mustache tried his best to avoid the United States from participating in the war. This also indirectly explained this.

But this kind of strength has a prerequisite, that is, the Americans decided to do their best to fight a war! From a strategic perspective, the efficiency of the US government, its strong industry, and its huge population made the United States a giant at the strategic level. However, in the battle more than 20 years ago, although the United States had already revealed the glory of the world overlord, it was still a little immature.

The performance at the tactical level is even worse. Not to mention the naval aspect, the Americans are far inferior to the British in terms of naval quality alone. Although the Army fought the Battle of Saint Miere, the huge advantages of the US and French troops cannot be ignored. Moreover, the US Army's system was very different from other European powers in World War 1, and many of the US artillery systems could explain this problem by referring to the French. Therefore, at the time of World War 1, when the United States did not have the idea of ​​fighting a full-scale war, the United States' combat effectiveness was really average! Even in the early days of World War 2, the British said that our Italians interpreted the combat effectiveness of the US military in the early stages of the war...

"However, it is a good thing to let the United States have one more ally and Japan have one less ally. As long as we don't do too much, I think the Germans will understand it." Secretary of State Robert Lanxin said smoothly.

"Okay, Mr. Lanxin, let's do some calculations. If we want to gain friendship between the British, then one thing is that we must at least help the British through this difficulty! Let's not talk about how to coordinate relations with Germany politically. From a purely economic perspective, the British defeated more than 10 billion pounds of materials and money for this war, and the Germans also spent hundreds of billions of imperial marks. The Germans wanted to make up for the financial deficit caused by the war. Where did their money come from? It can only be from the British!"

Roosevelt paused and continued: "I can tell you very clearly that the compensation requested by the Germans is an astronomical figure! Even if it cannot be fully fulfilled in the end, the compensation actually paid by the UK can definitely allow the British to use their accumulation for hundreds of years! Well, tell me Mr. Lanxin, why should the United States help the British provide more than ten figures of dollars? What can Britain bring to us?"

"I can say without hesitation that Britain is not worthy of being an ally of the United States at all, because they are too weak now. The last batch of British troops who can fight have entered the German prisoner-of-war camps, and most of the last batch of British navys who can fight have disappeared into the rolling waves of the Norwegian Sea! The current British finance is a colander, and a loophole that cannot be filled by investment! Why do we have a fallen out with the Germans who are still allies for a country that has seriously hurt us? Those who have this idea are either paranoid or fools!"
