"Hiss... Just a statement? If my information is correct, the Japanese government had asked Britain and Japan to cooperate with each other by threatening the British colonies, and then the Japanese also threatened the French in the same way. Therefore, there is a certain scale of military trade between France and Japan. If we exempt the French from worries, wouldn't it be bad if France chooses to cut off military trade with Japan and instead cooperate with the Americans?" asked Prince Baden. "And just one statement, and we have created real hostility with Japan, will the Japanese listen to us?"

"Do you know what it is really fragrant?" The crown prince said in his heart, remembering a meme on the Internet in later generations!

"First of all, you have misunderstood the policy of France. First, you have mistaken the essence of the French-Japanese arms transaction. In fact, it is not because of the Japanese threat to France that France sells weapons to Japan, but because the French need money and the Japanese need arms. This is a two-way deal. In other words, whether the Japanese threaten France or not, France is actually willing to trade with the Japanese! Japan's threat to the French colony is just an excuse to give French-Japanese transactions, an excuse that can be used to excuse Americans!" The crown prince said with a smile.

"I don't quite understand what it means." Prince Baden wiped his sweat, feeling that his thinking could not keep up!

"First of all, let's make sure that in the future, the British will still have the idea and ability to confront the empire. From this perspective, the British should ease relations with the United States, and they should have some resistance to the arms trade against Japan. But France is different. France's highest requirement is nothing more than to maintain its current status and then be a neutral country. They do not have the necessity to improve relations with the Americans, because strategically they need to seek a balance between the United States and Germany. That's good, so when dealing with the Japanese issue, France is actually for money! The more money the better! The quotes given by the Americans now are not enough to offset the arms trade between France and Japan. So tell me, how will the French choose?"

"In addition, after the war, the weapons that the French could provide for more than 2 million troops were actually a pile of scrap iron. Wouldn't it be better to convert these things into funds? So I don't worry about the arms trade between France and Japan at all!" the crown prince explained.

In later generations, the US government could pay for the MiG29 from the original Warsaw Pact countries of Eastern Europe, and then throw it directly into the airplane cemetery to let them die on their own. However, no matter how NB the US government is, it is impossible for them to buy French weapons that are equipped with hundreds of thousands of people. The reason is very simple. The military systems of the two sides are incompatible, and the funds for these weapons are too large. The Americans are better off buying their own countries with this spare money, so it is not suitable for both economic and military terms! But Japan is different. Japan's industrial capacity is too poor, and domestic production is not enough to consume on the battlefield, so Japan can only purchase a large amount of foreign purchases! And if the air force and naval equipment provided by the British, then the French are the most of the heavy artillery, vehicles and ammunition used by the Japanese army!

As for whether the Japanese will listen to the Germans? They will definitely listen! Because if the Germans are really serious, then the Japanese Combined Fleet will face the US-Germany Fleet for a minute. Do you dare not listen?

So, now the problem is. If Japan cannot threaten the French Far East colony and the arms trade between France and Japan is gone without the last fig leaf, what will the Americans think? The Americans will consider that the assistance they give to the French has not gained the recognition of the French, and the French are still doing arms trade with the Japanese. So the problem is, how can the United States and France be friends?

But what the Germans did was bright and honest, neither France nor the United States could say anything! It reflects the behavior of a responsible big country! Well, at least the people are full of images! Tell the whole of Europe, follow me and I will cover you. Even in the far Far East, the majesty of the German Empire is still not to be violated! How about it? Is this pretending to be full?

Well, someone will ask, since the army is not good, can France and the Americans cooperate in the navy and then let the French gain more benefits from the Americans than from the Japanese, and choose to give up the French-Japanese arms trade?

In theory, it is OK, but in fact it is not possible! There are many reasons. The most important point is that since as a country that is extremely lacking in funds, you can get orders from the United States and the Japanese at the same time, why only make money from one person?

The French descendants do a lot of these things in the arms market, such as the arms trade between France and India and Pakistan. The French can sell them to Indian Phantom 2000, or to Pakistan Phantom 3, Phantom F1 fighter jets, and the French can sell them to Pakistan Agosta 90b submarines, or to Indian Cypress Class submarines!

The country pays attention to the interests first, and don’t think too much about face and other things. In fact, if it weren’t for the pressure from the United States that the northwest wind of the French entered the Russian navy! And now? Americans do not have the strong influence of later generations, and they want to make the French give up their arms trade with Japan through some economic interests? Dream! The French are ready to eat the plaintiff and the defendant!

And to be honest, Americans may not be able to appreciate the equipment of the French Navy at present! You should know that the United States is not the United States in the later World War II. It uses the lease bill to send out tens of billions of dollars first, and then collect payments. After the war, a Marshall plan will continue to spread the money! At this time, the United States was still relatively tragic and the funds were tight. How could it be that it could buy some useless things?

Do Americans need warships? Yes, you can tell the Germans about this. As long as the price is reasonable, we will also give 5-star admirals and full-skill crew members. Do you want to buy warships from Germany? Yes, even if Germany is not enough, as long as the Americans arrive sincerely, Ruprecht can also sell some warships from the Austro-Hungarian Navy to you! And they are all fast warships! The model is shipped immediately, without any delay! Why do you buy French warships? Now there are a few super fearless ships left in the French Navy? There are only two or three scattered kittens, and their performance is not as good as the Helgoland. Why do the Americans buy them? They are all slow ships!
