Prince Ruprecht's last sentence obviously mentioned someone's pain. Roosevelt thought about it carefully. In many previous meetings, the prince really wanted to bring the relationship between the United States and Virgins closer, and made every effort. At this point, it was impossible to do anything false.

At the same time, the prince did give Americans a lot of very constructive opinions, but the United States missed opportunities again and again due to suspicion and hesitation. If it weren't for the Americans' factors, the Japanese would not have obtained two other Asama-class armored cruisers, and the end of the war would have changed directly. If the Americans hadn't hesitated and had not handed over Samoa to Germany for custody, then American Samoa would not have become Japanese Samoa. And this time, if he hesitated, what would happen? Roosevelt didn't know!

The Americans felt that Japan would not force Hawaii, because in the eyes of the Americans, Japan was too far away from Hawaii, and Roosevelt also agreed with Prince Ruprecht's statement that as long as there were certain US troops on Hawaii, the Japanese would retreat. Even if the Japanese Navy had the advantage.

But you are not afraid of ten thousand in everything, just afraid of it! What if the United States is prepared to be broken by the Japanese who are unnatural this time? The actions of the Japanese have repeatedly challenged the American cognitive bottom line. From the beginning of the attack on the Philippines, to the later defeating the US-Russian fleet in a battle, and then sending troops to occupy Samoa, the Americans have paid a heavy and irreparable price for their confidence every time!

What if the Japanese are crazy again this time and the Americans are not ready? If they lose Hawaii, which took more than ten years to get, the United States' expansion policy will be fatal. After seeing the weak nature of the United States, I am afraid that the United States will not even be able to protect South America's backyard, and all kinds of powers will definitely extend their hands to America as if they rediscovered a new continent! No, the British have already reached their hands to America, and they encouraged Brazil to participate in this purchasing agent. This is a very obvious example!

To be honest, Roosevelt agreed with this idea very much, but the problem was that he could not decide this matter, and even if he could decide, the Germans needed to discuss it. For the first time, Roosevelt took the initiative to promote cooperation between the United States and Germany! But the risks and efforts he had to bear this time were also the greatest.

This is how people are. When a beautiful thing can be easily obtained, no one cherishes it. When a beautiful thing is not that beautiful but requires a greater price to obtain it, it will make people try their best to fight for it. Roosevelt feels like this is the situation in America and himself now!

"If the relationship between the United States and Germany can be closer before the war begins, it is not impossible to share the Philippines with Japan. But now, Americans have to pay a greater price to protect their original range of strength. It is really a blessing to make people!" Roosevelt couldn't help but sigh when he left.

Roosevelt was unsure, while Ruprecht was also unsure. Not to mention that his status was not enough to affect the empire's diplomacy and strategy, just from the risks the empire suffered in this action, it was not easy to make decisions. Although the prince mentioned the "Three Kingdoms Intervention to Return Liao", this action was completely different from the actions in the Qing and Japanese War! The situation was much more complicated!

If it is said that during the Qing-Japanese War, the Three Kingdoms interfered in the Liao Dynasty and returned the Liao Dynasty, it also had a core basic purpose - to prevent Japan from gaining too many benefits from the Qing Dynasty and at the same time to share the benefits, then what is the purpose of intervening in the Liao Dynasty this time? The interests of the United States, Russia and Germany are different in themselves!

What is the purpose of the Americans? The highest goal is naturally to include the Philippines in the control of the United States, but it is obvious that this idea is not realistic, and Germany and Russia will not agree at all. This is too difficult and has limited significance to these two countries.

It seems impossible to take a step back and get Samoa back. The reason is very simple. Germany and Russia cannot organize a fleet to Samoa to fight with the Japanese. At this time, the Japanese navy's combat effectiveness is not weak. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the strongest force in the entire Pacific except for the British Royal Navy!

Then the only possibility is to prevent Hawaii from being occupied by Japan, but even with this requirement, the Russians probably won't do anything, because it has nothing to do with them. If the prince did not take action and needed the United States to cooperate, he would not agree without authorization!

There is only one original intention to make His Highness the Prince put forward this cooperation request, that is, when Germany invades Portugal's colonies in Africa, Americans can stand on their own side! And let the United States and Germany get closer! If the Americans are willing to agree to this request, His Highness the Prince will strive to promote this cooperation!

But there are two more problems here. The first problem is that Germany will take at least one year to prepare for Portugal. And if it helps the United States solve the Hawaii problem now, what should Americans do if they regret it?

If the United States and Germany join forces, Japan will definitely retreat. Will the United States break the contract after obtaining Hawaii? After all, this plan cannot be signed in a formal manner, it can only be a secret contract. The biggest feature of the secret contract is that both parties can break the contract in advance without worrying about being criticized!

Another question is, what if Germany takes action in Africa and the United States also needs to intervene? After all, the prince’s purpose is to include two pieces of land that have a combined total of more than 2 million square kilometers into the German colonial system. It is hard to say that such a great benefit will not make the Americans jealous. If the Americans make colonial demands, how will the German government deal with it?

Ruprecht carefully analyzed every possible problem. Considering that the Americans had suffered repeated setbacks in this year's war, it was unlikely that they would still fight with Germany in Africa when they won Hawaii in the second year. After all, the Americans were very isolated at this time. No country except Germany had a friendly relationship with the United States. Americans must consider this issue.

If the interests are to be transferred, then the economic interests in Africa can be transferred, such as the right to start a mine and set up a factory, which directly increases the colony of more than 2 million square kilometers, which is equivalent to double the German colony area in Africa. Although this plane has undergone some changes under the influence of the prince, the German colony policy in this plane is still losing money. If it doubles, it means more economically...
