Jagged Germany

   "Your Majesty, is the empire going to launch an attack on those merchant ships of the Americans? As long as His Majesty gives the order, we can leave and start operations." Marshal Earl Tirpitz said excitedly.

   You know, whether it is the Imperial Navy's breaking fleet or the submarine force, those American merchant ships in the Atlantic Ocean are all coveted. In particular, these American merchant ships transported to Britain were almost all war supplies. This obviously caused great damage to the interests of the German Empire. The officers and soldiers of the Imperial Navy have long wanted to deal with these American merchant ships.

   However, because of the international situation, the Imperial Navy has never dared to act rashly. But now, the time has come. The empire no longer has to worry about the Americans. Then, the Imperial Navy will naturally not have to endure it anymore.

"No, directly attacking American merchant ships is an extreme way. This will have a certain impact on the reputation of the empire. Even if the empire doesn't care about these reputations, there is still no need to make excuses." William II has not yet What to say, Qin Tian opened his mouth.

   "Oscar, is there any way you can teach these Americans a lesson?" William II asked.

"Your Majesty, I suggest that the empire declare a no-navigation zone in the western and southern waters of the British Isles. Ships from other countries are prohibited from entering that sea area. If they need to enter, they must apply to Germany. Otherwise, , will be regarded as an enemy of Germany. The German Navy can sink any ship that has not been reported to the Empire. In addition, ships from any country are prohibited from transporting war materials to Britain and France. The specific types of war materials are listed by the Ministry of the Navy Come out. The warships of the Imperial Navy will be inspected in the Atlantic Ocean. Once any ships are found that violate the German order, they can be impounded. If they encounter resistance, they can be sunk directly!" Qin Tian said.

  Everyone was shocked, and they couldn't help thinking that Qin Tian's words were too arrogant. This is simply to use the power of Germany as a country to face other countries! Of course, they all believed that doing so would be very beneficial to Germany.

   "Your Highness, isn't our attitude a little too arrogant? If this is the case, I'm afraid it will cause strong opposition from other countries." Prime Minister Bilo said.

"If you oppose it, just oppose it! It has nothing to do with it. It will not cause any loss to the empire. As long as we can win this war and become the hegemon of the world, then everything is worth it." Qin Tian Said.

   "Your Highness, we are obviously deliberately targeting the Americans by doing this. Will this arouse the dissatisfaction of the Americans and directly start a war with us?" Von Kidren Wachter also said.

"They don't have the guts. Of course, this may bring the relationship between us and the United States to a freezing point. However, I don't think it has any relationship. Anyway, after we win this war, we will also have relations with the United States." The Americans are heading for confrontation. We need to win this war with the least cost, so that we can gain an advantage in the future confrontation with the United States." Qin Tian said.

"No sailing zone, this name is very good. Since the Americans want to transport supplies to Britain and France, they will cheat the empire. Then, the empire directly prohibits their ships from going to these two countries. All war supplies are prohibited from entering these two countries. The country. Only in this way can the empire win the war. Very good, let’s do it like this!” William II finally made a decision.

   On February 18, 1915, the German government officially issued a notice. In view of the fact that the British coast has become a warring area, in order to avoid fratricide, a no-fly zone was delineated along the British coast. Vessels from any country shall not appear in the no-navigation zone. Once you break in, you will bear the consequences. In addition, any country is prohibited from transporting food, oil, steel, aluminum ingots and other non-ferrous metals, as well as weapons and ammunition to Britain and France. Once discovered, it will be regarded as an enemy of Germany. Germany will take all means to defend the interests of the German Empire!

  The announcement made by the German government immediately caused an uproar all over the world. Britain and France, Germany's hostile countries, have accused Germany of making such an arrogant announcement, believing that Germany has no right to do so at all. You know, even when the British Empire was at its strongest, they were never so arrogant! What's more, Germany did this to target these two countries, and wanted to completely cut off their overseas trade, directly trapping them to death. Especially the United Kingdom, once overseas trade is completely cut off, they are really not far from death. Of course they would strongly object. It's just that the German Empire never cared about their opposition.

  The U.S. government was also furious with Germany's tit-for-tat response. They knew that this was Germany's answer to their earlier reply. The Germans did this entirely to prohibit the United States from transporting supplies to Britain and France. Germany has taken a tough attitude, which naturally caused some people in the US cabinet to shake their positions. They are undoubtedly afraid that if they do so, it will lead to the involvement of the United States in the war. Although, senior officials of the US government all want to replace Britain and become the future world hegemon. However, they may have to think twice if it costs them to participate in the war.

   However, under the strong promotion of President Woodrow Wilson, the US government was still not intimidated by the Germans. The U.S. government publicly issued a statement that the German government's outrageous and unreasonable actions are blatantly undermining free trade and trampling on freedom and human rights. The United States will never abide by the so-called no-fly zone designated by Germany. The United States has the right to trade with any country, and other countries have no right to interfere. At the same time, the US government also stated that the US has sufficient military strength to safeguard their interests. If their interests are damaged, the United States will take all measures and means to protect their interests, including war.

  The response of the US government undoubtedly made the international situation more complicated and confusing. Many countries are not fools, so they naturally understand why the United States and Germany are confronting each other. However, they are also speculating whether the United States will be involved in the war because of this.

  Germany's designation of no-flight zones has also somewhat affected other countries. However, due to the strong strength of Germany, they dare not speak out, and can only wait to see the reactions of other countries before deciding what to do next.
