Chapter 1993: Political Blackmail II
"So, in order to permanently break the alliance between Britain and France, the condition I made for the French is to abandon Britain and exchange the blood of the British Expeditionary Force for our tolerance. If the French finally choose our tolerance, then This knife is enough to cause a devastating blow to the relationship between Britain and France, from the highest level to the people. As long as the British think that they have lost the most in the hundreds of years of war, it is because of the French. If it is caused by treachery, then they will give up the idea of reconciliation with the French. For any country, betrayal on the battlefield is intolerable."
"The French are well aware of this, so they are hesitating. They also know what the consequences will be if they do this. This is a matter that will determine the situation in Europe for decades to come. And if the French do not have the support of the British If not, then they can only compromise with Germany," said the prince.
"What if the French refuse to cooperate?" said Prince Albert.
"Then my army will have no mercy for France! No one can prevent our army from entering Paris again, and we will completely overthrow this country. The end of the war does not mean the end of our suppression of the French. We will Starting from economic, political, and colonial aspects at the same time, France will be completely kicked out of the club of powerful countries!" Ruprecht said firmly.
"However, if you do this, your punishment plan for the British may fail, and you will also face pressure from the United States at the same time. This is very different from your plan." Albert frowned and said .
"Yes, this result allowed us to win, but it did not fundamentally consolidate the imperial status of the empire in the European continent. It is impossible for us to occupy France, and the mutual hatred will continue. In the future, the groups that resist Germany will still be in the European continent There will be a bridgehead. The British may escape punishment this time, because we are not sure to kill both Britain and France at the same time, we can only do a single-choice question. The French or the British." The prince said with a sigh. The current situation is like the final battle in Go. Germany can already win, but how much benefit it can gain depends entirely on the prince's strategizing in the last few months. Winning on the battlefield is not victory, winning on the battlefield and getting enough rewards is victory!
"So, at this time, while we are using the meeting with the British to instigate the relationship between Britain and France, we must also use this meeting to remind the Americans. If the Americans want to use our hands to severely weaken the British, Then don’t go too far with some things! When necessary, we have to give the Americans a false impression that we may compromise with the British, but we will not let the French go!” said the prince.
"In this case, the Americans may compromise, but they may also deal with us with a tough stance. After all, after two years of war, the empire is also very weak." Prince Albert said.
"The Americans can use economic means to coerce us from entering Paris. However, they have no way to use economic means to coerce us into a fight with the British. Because, once we reach an agreement with the British and stop the war, Then American materials and financial assistance become unimportant. As for the money and materials needed for the recovery of the imperial economy after the war? We can get them from the corpses of the French! At this point, the Americans are not so good to us. It is important, but without our help, the Americans want to enter East Asia and Southeast Asia is undoubtedly a dream! Because the British are unwilling. We will also give up our support for the Americans because of the behavior of the Americans! And the Americans also Unwilling to fight an all-out war for the Far East, they are not prepared."
"We have a lot of chips in our hands,
And our chips are cashed out after the war is over. We have an advantage in time. We want to tell the Americans, if the Americans want to continue to weaken Britain, if the United States wants to launch a war of revenge against Japan. Then the Americans must cooperate with our actions. And provide enough rewards for us to smash Britain! ’ concluded the prince at last.
This is actually a game of interests. The purpose of the Americans was to severely injure Britain, keep France, and retaliate against Japan. Among these three goals, the highest priority is to severely damage Britain and revenge Japan. To achieve these two points, the support of the Germans is indispensable, because only the Germans have the ability to severely damage the British fleet. Only the Germans are capable of helping the US Navy in the Far East.
The power of money is great. But it is not a panacea. Americans have always been rich, but in peacetime, American money is not that powerful. There was a lack of respect for the United States at least before World War 1.... That is to say, in the case of a war, American money is so powerful with the addition of war BUFF that it can threaten the German Empire.
Well, after recognizing the essence of this problem, the prince has a way to face the possible blackmail from the Americans. Wouldn't it be okay to dispel your war BUFF? Once the Americans think that Germany and Britain may compromise, is the big money stick in their hands still useful? The war is over, and the Germans can get a lot of reparations from France, as well as a lot of land and resources on the Eastern Front. The economic recovery is sure to be fast, and Americans' money sticks are about to lose value. Well, as a rational person, what will the Americans do when their own threats do not work and they have to rely on their opponents? I can only admit cowardice! It is still possible to achieve the three goals of the Americans after admitting counsel. If you don't admit it, the Americans will get nothing!
In order to achieve his goals, the prince needs the cooperation of the Americans. Only when the French think that the Americans will not offend Germany in order to help France will the last illusion in their hearts be shattered. Embarrassed on all sides, the French could only choose to either repeat everything in the Franco-Prussian War, or stab the British in the back. However, the prince was able to complete the encirclement of the British Expeditionary Force in one fell swoop. Then they severely damaged the British fleet at sea, thus completely turning the empire on which the sun never sets into a sunset empire! Even if the prince can't hold a military parade in London, it can still make the British fall from the pinnacle of power. Of course, in this process, the prince will also get more dollars and support from the Americans!
