Chapter 2289 jealous of each other

"So is Japan afraid of Germany now? Do the Japanese think Germany is more difficult to deal with than the United States?" Wilson said.

"If it is simply Germany, then the Japanese may not be afraid. Because Germany does not have much interest in the Far East, the possibility of launching a large-scale war is very low, and Germany does not have a suitable springboard in the Far East. However, war has never been a 1-to-1 issue. We and the Japanese are in a state of dying. Therefore, what Japan is most worried about is that it needs to face the pressure from both the United States and Germany at the same time. In this case, if Germany is given certain interests in exchange for Germany to withdraw, it is naturally a very good deal." Taft said.

"So, the Germans can actually choose to fight or not, and we have to fight, right?" Wilson asked.

"Yes, this is the reason for our disadvantages. However, according to our estimates, the Germans should still want to fight. After all, if the Germans cannot provide help to the United States in military terms, then the cooperation between the United States and Germany will lose at least half of its significance. Now, the Germans still need our dollars." Taft sighed and said.

"So what will we do next?" Wilson asked.

"It's very simple, first partially fulfill the previous agreement, and then we continue to discuss other issues," Taft said.

The negotiations between the United States and Germany did not interrupt for too long, because the first round of both sides was just a test. Both sides both needed each other, so on some issues, everyone still had the basis for exchanges and cooperation. Therefore, after the Americans expressed their willingness to pay compensation for the German naval wars and casualties and soldiers first, the second round of negotiations between the United States and Germany kicked off. The unpleasant events that occurred in the first negotiations between the two sides deliberately avoided the issue of money. So this time, the focus of the discussion between the United States and Germany was on the disposal of the Allies!

"I have seen a sample of peace agreements submitted by your country. Overall, I think your country is still too tolerant of Britain. African colonies are not the most important for the British Empire. The two dominations of Canada, Australia and the British India region."

"If possible, I hope you can force the British to give up Canada and Australia, and we can not occupy these places and make them independent countries. It will also cause serious weakening to the UK," Taft said.

"There is a saying that I don't know if you have heard of. If we can't get something on the battlefield, we can't get it at the negotiating table either. First of all, we cannot land in the UK. The price is one aspect, and your country will not allow it. I'm right?" Ruprecht said with a smile.

"I think you have some problems with your attitude towards us. We are firmly on your side." After hearing the Crown Prince's words, Taft hurriedly defended.

"Haha, if your country really treats the British as an enemy who is as immortal as the Japanese, then why don't you participate in the war when Britain is about to be defeated? At this time, we are already in a situation of victory, and the military risk is almost 0. As for the excuses? I think your country that once provoked the Spanish-American War will not be unable to find an excuse, right? The simplest thing is to declare war directly on Japan, but Britain and Japan are allies. While declaring war on Japan, they declare war on the British. What a simple thing?"

"Okay, you and I know some things well. We are now holding closed-door meetings without having to face journalists and media. So everyone can let go of many things without hiding them. Your country has a grudge against us, so we hope to retain a moderately powerful country to restrain us. We can understand this and we can do it. So what else is there to be dissatisfied with you?" The crown prince had already said it bluntly.

"In this case, not only us, but even the British knew that they would not perish. If that were the case, why did they still hand over the most important domination and colonies of the empire? This is called fearlessness. They knew very well that as long as the basic needs of the empire were met, we could overcome this crisis. Our goal was also clear, that was to eat what we could."

"India is a very good colony, with a large amount of labor, a large amount of raw materials, and a very good market itself, but unfortunately, it is too far away from us and has too many people to rule. Australia and Canada are also far away from the Empire, and the Empire has no ability to conquer with force. As I said before, things that cannot be obtained on the battlefield can also be obtained at the negotiating table. These places are either not suitable for the current empire or they do not have the ability to obtain. If that is the case, why do we have to add these meaningless things to the treaty?" Ruprecht asked back.

"Your statement is somewhat biased. Britain is your enemy. So from your perspective, as long as it can weaken your opponent, it will be a good thing for your country in any case. If your country feels that it cannot force Britain to submit by relying on its own strength, then the United States of America can help." Taft said.

"No need, because even if this plan is successful, we cannot obtain any benefits. We are too far away from these places. If your country wants to obtain these benefits, it must use the swords and guns in your hands to fight for it, instead of relying on money to buy or conspiracy to make others work for you. At least this set will not work for Germany, and we are not that stupid." Ruprecht's response was very decisive.

"Okay, I'll just say all the following words. According to our information, you have already contacted the British and have put forward the suggestion to let Britain give up the Dominion of Canada in exchange for the money and political support the British need. However, the British refused. Your idea is to let Britain decline and then become their own younger brothers. However, this plan has not been successful, so you now want to force the British to submit through Germany and maximize the interests of the United States." The crown prince continued to look at the silent Taft.

"If your country decisively participates in this war, even if it joins the battlefield in the last stage of the war, you will have the right to deal with Britain. Even if you really want to completely destroy the foundation of Britain, then you can take action against Canada now. But you did not do this, so you lost the opportunity." The crown prince said.
