Chapter 2480 Condition 2
..The Rise of an Empire
"They will hold back in some aspects, such as the export of British military supplies to the empire. For example, when Japan negotiates with Germany in the future, the Germans may not include the Russian issue in the negotiations. On the agenda. Even in the future, if our performance satisfies the Germans, they may make some concessions on the Dutch East Indies issue. But if we do nothing on the Siberian issue, or our performance is too poor , so that if Germany is disappointed, our situation will be very bad." Saionji Gongwang said.
"Will Germany make concessions on the Dutch East Indies issue? Why do I feel that this statement is very ridiculous? Can the Germans still make the Americans give up the war? This is simply impossible." Yamamoto Gonbei sneered. In his view, Germany's influence on the United States on Pacific issues is also very limited.
"The Germans have prepared a backup plan very early, and they are very aboveboard. According to our intelligence, the German government and the U.S. government mentioned one thing when discussing some issues in the Pacific War, that is, the future , if after Germany and the United States recapture part of the territory of the former Dutch East Indies Colony from Japan, what will happen to these places? Will they be controlled by the Americans? Or will they be returned to the Dutch? Or will they be independent? Regarding this issue, the United States People did not give a positive answer, and the German solution was to put it on hold for the time being!" Kato Takaaki said.
"Then what? Is there any problem?" Terauchi Masaki asked.
"Although the Netherlands is a neutral country, it gave Germany a certain amount of help during the war. More than 30% of Germany's overseas supplies were re-exported into Germany through the Netherlands. Moreover, Germany is preparing to establish a European Union with Germany and Austria as the core, so for these small countries Germany must consider the demands of the Netherlands." Kato Takaaki paused for a moment and then continued: "Although Germany will not fight a war with us for the Netherlands, under certain special circumstances, I think the Germans will still consider the demands of the Netherlands. For example, as mentioned before, if the United States and the United States regain the colonies that originally belonged to the Netherlands, then the ownership of the colonies will be problematic."
"The Americans definitely want to bring them under their control or allow them to become independent, because whether it is directly incorporated or in the form of a suzerain state, the United States can easily control these areas. It can also build military facilities and deploy troops. As for giving it back to the Dutch? I'm afraid this is not what Americans want to see. After all, it means that Americans are working for the Netherlands in vain. And when there is a conflict between the United States and Germany, the Netherlands will definitely listen to Germany, not Germany. American." Xiyuanji Gongwang said.
"Germany will not invest too much energy in the Netherlands, but this is a very good excuse. As an excuse, when the former German Pacific colonies that Germany originally promised to the United States return to the hands of the Americans, Germany can withdraw at any time. This war, because the Dutch East Indies has nothing to do with the United States, Germany can explain that even after taking these places back from us, they should be returned to the Netherlands instead of the United States! And the United States cannot accuse the Germans of breach of contract at this time, Because there is no such content in the treaty.”
"so,
The situation is now very clear. The former German colonies we invaded in the early stages of the war must be returned to the Americans. But as for other places, it depends on the attitude of the Germans. Now, they have left a way out. And always ready for sale! Using the Netherlands as an excuse, the Germans could quickly withdraw from the war, and even mediate the conflicts between the three countries as a neutral party. Of course, there is a premise here, that is, some of the things we do satisfy the Germans! " said Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple.
"Hitting the Russians hard counts as one. Are there any other conditions?" Yamamoto Gonbei asked.
"Compensation, compensation that cannot be circumvented! And the amount is definitely a lot." Gongwang of Xiyuan Temple sighed and said.
"Does this count as benefiting from both the plaintiff and the defendant? It's quite acceptable." Terauchi Masaki said through gritted teeth.
"However, the operability of this is very low. I understand Germany's self-confidence. They believe that with the strength of the German and U.S. navies, they can kill us at any time. But how can the Germans guarantee that when they want to stop the war? Will the Americans stop? If the Americans have taken the initiative on the battlefield, why should they stop? The Americans also have this kind of operation. They have long wanted to make the Germans favor the British through interest exchange, but the result The Germans still swept the British Grand Fleet cleanly into the garbage dump of history!" Yamamoto Gonbei said.
"What you said makes sense, so I have always believed that the navy's actions on Guinea Island are just to delay the opponent, rather than to have a decisive battle with the German and American fleets. When the navy is unable to support the situation, I suggest that the fleet immediately withdraw to Kaliman Dan Island. This is to buy time, not only to buy time for us, but also to buy time for the Germans. If we can reach an agreement with Germany on certain issues by then, it will be okay on the battlefield. victory, then the empire will finally have a chance to withdraw from this war." Xiyuanji Gongwang said.
The so-called internal factors determine the development direction of things. External factors are nothing but influences. This is quite reasonable. For example, Britain before the end of the war. In fact, a few months before the end of the war, the defeat of the British was already determined. Even if the British navy was cheated and both sides suffered losses from the battle with the Germans in the Norwegian Sea, so what?
Britain is still under the double stranglehold of the German naval submarine force and the German land-based aviation. If it takes a few more months, Britain will collapse or collapse. In other words, when Britain's defeat is irreversible, the Americans will not be able to provide help anymore. There is no way to undo this. Even if the Americans break up with Germany and start using American ships to transfuse blood to the British in large quantities, it will not work. The reason is very simple. In addition to the lack of supplies, the British population loss has also reached the limit. It is no longer possible to continue the fight, and the British government will not continue to fight with the Germans because of the support of the United States, because that is using the hope of tomorrow to extend the life of today, which is not a crime!
By the same token, this situation also applies to Japan. If in the end, the Americans feel that they can completely drive Japan out of the Dutch East Indies without paying a high price, the Germans will decisively give up on Japan. Just like the United States finally gave up on the United Kingdom a few months ago, countries have one interest in doing things. If the input is higher than the output, they will naturally not do it...
