Chapter 230: One meter seventy-two and one meter twenty-seven

"Besides, Americans’ national strength is not directly proportional to their combat effectiveness. They have powerful industries, vast lands and rich resources, and a large population, but these things have not been converted into corresponding combat effectiveness. Strong enemies are both a good and a bad. What I didn't expect was that Americans who fought with the Royal Navy would lose so badly. Hehe." Saltsbury said with a mocking smile.

In this era, it is not enough to have money and industry, and the fists must be strong enough, otherwise the status is not so high. Now the world's top empires have at least been arrogant on the battlefield. Needless to say, the British, the French also have glory. The Germans stepped on the French corpses, and the Russians were called European road rollers. Austro-Hungarian? The status of the arena is not high precisely because there is no decent record.

  The previous record of the Americans is also considered to be improvised. It is natural to lose to the British. There is no shame. After all, Napoleon was overturned, the Americans were burned to the White House, and the naval shipyard was burned is also normal. Coupled with the fact that the Americans had a streak of victories against North America's weaker Mexico, the world still believed that the Americans were a little capable, plus the navy that was known as the fifth in the world before the war began. From the outside, it’s really bluffing, so people look at the strength of the United States at 1.72 meters or more.

  But the actual result of the fighting has surprised the people of the world. "Fuck! This TM is a match-fixing, right?" When the British government received a telegram from the front line, almost everyone didn't believe their eyes, and the fifth in the world was just like that? This is too fast! The Americans and the Russians were knocked out by the Japanese in one round. It stands to reason that it will take a few months to fight.

  Because of this defeat, the international status of the United States has plummeted! In the eyes of the great powers, the Americans went directly from 1.72 meters to 1.27 meters! And a bunch of so-called military commentators also lost their jobs. Ever since, American military power has become the laughing stock of the great powers.

It was precisely because of the military failure that the British government finally gave up its efforts to reconcile the Americans. Only the strong can be friends with the strong. The Americans have enough industrial and economic power, but the fact that the army is not enough, even Someone in the British government put forward: "What is the Monroe doctrine on this point? Are you kidding?" So a vote of British parliamentarians, under the operation of capitalists, prepared to pass a plan to infiltrate South America! After all, South America is very rich, much better than Africa!

  When the two sides take over the feud, and whether one of them has enough force to back up, then it is of no importance to the other party to improve the relationship, anyway, the United States cannot do anything to the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom does have reasons to support Japan, so after a long time of hesitation, the British finally decided to take an inaction in the relationship between the United States and Britain. What is your American love! Want to make the British Empire bow? Think too much!

  Historically, the Americans helped the British win the First World War. What benefits did the United Kingdom give to the United States? The Paris Peace Conference was led by Britain and France, and the Americans’ concerns were not responded to. Later, even the Americans thought that it would be better to return the Pacific islands to Germany than to Japan. Of course, how can the food eaten in Japan spit out? In the end, everyone negotiated, so the United States did not actually benefit from World War I.

  There is no friendship between countries, there are only interests, and this exchange of interests is definitely not equal. What did the Americans get for helping the British so much? It's not directly proportional to the effort and the effect. Of course, some people will say that the Americans are afraid that Germany will unify the European continent. They can only say that this is more of a guess. After all, the Americans are not traversers. No one would have thought that Germany in World War II was so crazy!

At least now, the British believe that it is unnecessary to offend Japan’s top fighter in the Far East for the sake of US-British relations, and that Japan’s control of the Philippines is also good for British capital. After weighing it over and over again, the British government treats the United States coldly. You are willing to make trouble. It is impossible to make trouble and scold if you are willing to scold it. It is impossible to use the relationship between the two countries to coerce Britain to pressure Japan. In this way, the Americans find themselves unprecedentedly isolated, because of all the powers in this world, no country is willing to help the Americans at this time!

  The French do not have much friendship with the Americans. The Russians said that my brother was very disappointed in you. From the Russian perspective, he sold you most of the Far East Fleet's assets, and you actually gave them all in one round! What is the difference between such an ally and salted fish? The Russian Navy said that it would never cooperate with the Americans anymore. If it weren’t for General Essen’s bravery and self-sacrificing, wouldn’t the US-Russian fleet be shaved?

The Americans tragically discovered that in the huge world, there seems to be only one country named Germany they can find. But what is disappointing is that Germany can not provide much help now. Strength and national interest are the same. On the one hand, the most important thing is that the health of the Kaiser and the German Prime Minister is not very good!

Frederick III, who lived for 8 more years, is finally approaching the end of his life~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Although he can barely control his life with drugs, he can no longer bear the heavy work. And the iron-blooded prime minister Bismarck is also due to his health. Resign and leave. Calypume took over the post of Prime Minister of the Empire. And when this kind of internal politics undergoes tremendous changes, the Germans really cannot provide much help to the Americans.

  Of course, there are some personal reasons. The German crown prince Wilhelm II, who has already begun his regency, thinks that the Americans are too bad and are not worthy of any help from the empire. And when he came to Berlin again, Prince Ruprecht also believed that it was not good to help the Americans at this time. On the one hand, he had to bear a greater diplomatic risk, and on the other hand, the help responsive to requests would not be appreciated. Can provide this kind of help, but also make the other person feel that the help is hard-won, only in this way, he will cherish it! So the traverser means to air the Americans first.

Of course, this is not to say ignoring, but to not respond to the Americans’ request first, and to look at the development of the situation. Even if there is pressure, it cannot be undertaken by Germany alone, but the diplomatic etiquette should be No less.
