Chapter 1251 Let America Go

After the meeting with Hiroshi Oshima, German Chancellor Adolf Hitler immediately returned to his office, put on his reading glasses, and read word for word the telegram that President Truman had just sent through the Standard Oil Company of the Netherlands.

This telegram was actually a reply to the telegram Hitler sent to Truman the night before. In the telegram sent by Hitler, several favorable conditions were proposed that could be used as steps for Truman to go down. For example, the establishment of the Latin American Neutrality and Free Trade Zone and the Panama Canal Zone remain under the control of the United States.

The former is to merge the Latin American regions north of the New Asbanian Federation (including the original Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay and part of southern Brazil) and south of the United States of America, including the Caribbean, into a neutral, and implement free trade areas. There, five countries, including the United States, the United States of Europe, the Roman Empire, the British Empire, and the New Asbanian Federation (without Japan and China and the Soviet Union), will have unilateral freedom of trade - these five countries Goods can freely enter the "Latin American Zone", but goods from the "Latin American Zone" countries cannot freely enter the five countries.

Considering the traditional influence and large investment of the United States in the "Latin American region", as well as the convenience of transportation, the establishment of this "Latin American Neutrality and Free Trade Zone" is very beneficial to the United States.

In addition, all European and American troops stationed in the "Latin American Zone", except for the US troops stationed in the Panama Canal Zone, must be withdrawn. Except for Brazil, which will lose part of its territory, the territorial sovereignty of the countries in the "Latin American Zone" will be restored to the state before the 1939 World War. At the same time, it will be affected by the European Community (United States), the Roman Empire, the New Federation of Asbania and the United States. common guarantee.

In other words, the colonies of European countries in "Latin America" ​​can also be restored. However, in these colonies, countries are no longer allowed to station regular troops, and can only station non-military police to maintain order.

However, the British Bahamas Islands located outside the Caribbean Sea and the Bermuda Islands located near the east coast of the United States are no longer within the scope of the "Latin America Zone". Both territories would be returned to the UK and garrisoned by the European Community (United States).

This means that while the United States gained economic interests in the "Latin American Zone" and control of the Panama Canal, Germany also gained two nuclear weapons deployment bases close to the United States! Including Newfoundland, Germany has a total of three bases near the east coast of the United States that can deploy nuclear weapons. The entire east coast will be under the deterrence of German atomic bombs.

But winning the "Latin American Zone" and the Panama Canal Zone was always a diplomatic victory for Truman. So in Truman's reply, he expressed his gratitude to Hitler for his "friendliness" and "generosity."

At the same time, Truman put forward the concept that "Australia and New Zealand are not controlled by the United States" in his reply. This means that the issue of Australia and New Zealand must be excluded from peace negotiations. Whether the Germans want to attack or "appease" has nothing to do with the United States. The United States will stop sending military aid to Australia and New Zealand after the peace treaty officially takes effect (passed by Congress).

In exchange for Germany actually "appeasing" Australia and New Zealand (as long as Hitler agrees that Australia and New Zealand have nothing to do with the United States, it is equivalent to tolerating the existence of Australia and New Zealand's free beacon), the United States can agree to a compensation amount of 800 billion European marks. And after the treaty passes the review of Congress, it will immediately pay gold and silver worth 75 billion European marks and petroleum products, grain, livestock, cotton worth 25 billion European marks and other urgently needed materials for the European Community.

Truman also promised in the telegram that if Germany agreed to separate the issues of Australia and New Zealand from the United States, he would be very confident that the U.S. Congress would pass the Treaty of Rome in the short term.

Because Australia and New Zealand will become magnets for American resistance factions, they will either move their families to build a freedom fortress in Australia and New Zealand, or they will agree to compromise with Germany for the survival of the freedom fortress in Australia and New Zealand.

After reading Truman's reply, the German Chancellor fell into deep thought. Obviously, Americans are still dissatisfied! They did not completely give up the fight against the victorious European Community, but only temporarily surrendered, and at the same time transferred the fire of resistance to Australia and New Zealand, which were beyond the reach of Europe...

"Bowman." Hitler suddenly raised his head and shouted.

His personal secretary, Martin Bormann, was standing guard outside. He immediately opened the door and walked in. He saluted Hitler: "Hi, Hitler!"

"Hersman hasn't left yet."

"Not yet. He just sent Oshima Hiro away and is now preparing to leave."

It turned out that after Hitler left, Hersmann had a "whisper" with Oshima Hiroshi for a while, mainly asking the Japanese about their request for an armistice between the United States and Japan.

"Then invite him over immediately," Hitler said

"Yes, leader."

Martin Bormann immediately turned around and left. Ten minutes later, he and Hessmann returned to Hitler's office.

"Hi! Hitler!"

"Mr. Prime Minister."

Bormann and Hersmann greeted Hitler in their own ways. The German Chancellor also stood up from his chair, shook hands with Hersmann, nodded to Bormann, and motioned for him to leave the office.

"Sit down, Ludwig." Hitler asked Hersmann to sit down on a chair opposite his desk. "Has Japan made any demands on the Hawaiian Islands and the Aleutian Islands?"

"That's not the case," Hersman said. "They agreed to cease fire based on the existing control zone and then achieve demilitarization. But they put forward an additional condition, wanting the United States to guarantee that it would not support China and the Soviet Union."

"What an idiot!" Hitler sneered, "If the United States does not support China and the Soviet Union, what value does Japan have to us?"

To Germany, Japan is a vicious dog of the Pacific Rim parties. If the Pacific Rim parties do not unite, what value does Japan have?

"But the Americans do not agree, and the Japanese can only cease fire. In fact, they can no longer fight." Hersman replied with a smile.

Hitler handed the copy of Truman's reply to the Imperial Marshal, "Imperial Marshal, take a look at this."

"This is..." Hersman took the copy of the telegram and read it. He actually knew that Hitler was "collaborating with the United States", but he did not want to use the crime of "collaborating with the United States" to attack Hitler. After all, Germany's political rules are different from those of the United States, and as the victor, Hitler also has extremely high prestige. Even if the charge of "collusion with the United States" is proven, it is impossible to bring him down.

Seeing that Hersman had finished reading the telegram copy, Adolf Hitler asked: "How is it? Can we accept it?"

"We can only accept it." Hersman nodded, "We can't do anything about Australia and New Zealand now. I don't think Japan will agree to our army entering Southeast Asia or the South Pacific... and even if we can force them to agree, it's a bit late, so I don't agree to go to war with Australia and New Zealand."

Australia and New Zealand have always been the focus of British and American defense. Before the armistice, there were at least a million Allied soldiers (including the Australian and New Zealand Army) stationed there! There were no less than 2,000 combat aircraft, thousands of tanks and self-propelled artillery, and a huge surface and underwater fleet.

And with the end of the war in the Atlantic direction, a large number of "freedom fighters" from the British and American troops stationed in Canada also boarded the ship to the Australian and New Zealand Freedom Fortress. The weapons and equipment sent to Australia and New Zealand by the US government, both overtly and covertly, are too numerous to count.

In this case, Germany must send out a large army to deal with Australia and New Zealand. And the longer the time drags on, the more difficult it will be to deal with Australia and New Zealand. This is not only because the Americans have sent too many freedom fighters and weapons and equipment there, but also because the German people have been waiting for a good life.

So once the peace treaty is reached and the American reparations are shipped to Europe, the German people's willingness to fight will decline rapidly. Even Hitler will find it difficult to call for an expedition against a military power on the other side of the earth.

Hearing Hersman's statement, Adolf Hitler also exhaled lightly and said with a smile: "Then let the United States go for the time being. After all, they are also Aryans, and maybe they will become one with us in the future..."
