Jagged Germany

"Gentlemen, God bless the British Empire! The Germans are so arrogant that they have made a foolish move now. Could it be that they really think that their military strength is strong enough to be an enemy of the whole world at the same time?" Prime Minister Asquith, with a smile on his face. It was as if the great pressure of the previous period had disappeared all of a sudden.

  With Germany increasingly gaining an advantage in the war, Britain is under increasing pressure. In order to send more expeditionary forces to the European continent, the mobilization of the British mainland is also increasing. Many young men were forced to serve in the military. This makes the strength of the expeditionary force constantly rising. Of course, the defense of the British mainland has also begun to be strengthened. The British government is still worried that if the British and French allied forces fail to withstand the German attack in France, then a large number of troops will be needed to defend the mainland. In this way, they will be able to continue to persevere in the war.

   "Yes! Your Excellency the Prime Minister, God must be protecting the British Empire!" Sir Edward Gray, the Foreign Secretary, also said.

  The current occupation has become very unfavorable to Britain. However, if the United States can join the Allied Powers to fight, this will undoubtedly bring about a new change in Britain's difficult situation, and even winning the war is not impossible.

  Just as the German army believed that they would definitely win the next two crucial battles, the British government also believed that their army would be able to withstand the German attack. In this case, although the situation is very unfavorable to them, they also have a great chance of winning.

   "Gentlemen, do you think that the Americans will be provoked by the Germans and join the war?" Prime Minister Asquith asked.

"Your Excellency, this may be very difficult. Although the United States and the Germans are now at war, it is undoubtedly difficult to say whether the Americans have the confidence to join the war. The Germans have shown in this war The military strength is really too strong. Americans have never been good at fighting. Their industrial strength is very strong, but their military strength is not strong. It will also take a long time for industrial strength to be transformed into military strength. Therefore, the United States Maybe people will compromise this time.” Churchill was not as optimistic as Prime Minister Asquith.

"Mr. Churchill, you are too negative. The military strength of the Americans is indeed not strong. However, if they are given enough time, their industrial strength can definitely be transformed into military strength. As long as we can resist the Germans Attack, and when the military strength of the United States explodes, we will be able to win." Prime Minister Asquith said.

  Although, these senior officials of the British cabinet all look down on upstarts like the United States. But the ridiculous thing is that now the United States has become their life-saving straw. They all hope that the United States can join the Allied Powers at this time to help them win the war. Obviously, they no longer have the confidence to win this war on their own.

"Your Excellency, this is exactly the case, so we have to be more careful about the Germans. In order to prevent the United States from joining the war, which will have an impact on the war situation. The Germans will definitely launch an attack in a short time and try to defeat us. In this case, even if the United States Joining the war will not pose much threat to them." Churchill was still a little worried.

"The Germans will launch an attack this spring. Isn't this what we have long concluded? At the same time, we have been preparing for the German attack. The expeditionary force we have sent to France has reached as many as half a million Yes. The mainland has an army of 500,000. And our French allies, their army has expanded to 2.5 million. Just to deal with the German troops in the north, there are as many as 2 million People. The Anglo-French coalition forces with a total of 2.5 million people will certainly be able to withstand the German attack. And the Royal Navy, after the 'Queen Elizabeth-class' battleships and the 'Revenge-class' battleships have successively served, their strength has also improved a lot. Perhaps , still unable to compete head-on with the Germans. However, it is still no problem to persist until the United States completes its armed forces? So, if the United States can join the war, the outcome of this war will be rewritten. The British Empire will win the war in history The most powerful enemy, win the final victory of the war!" Richard Haldane, the Minister of War, seemed very confident.

   "Then, the most critical question now is how the Americans will join the war. Can we contribute to it?" Prime Minister Asquith said.

"Your Excellency, this is actually very simple. Didn't the Germans want to ban all ships from arriving in the UK and prohibit other countries from transporting supplies to us? We can just take this opportunity to place more orders with the United States so that American merchant ships will The supplies are brought to us. For the sake of profit, those American merchant ships will definitely enter the no-sail zone designated by the Germans forcibly. At that time, once an American merchant ship is seized or sunk, what will the U.S. government do? One can imagine the reaction. I think that if the price paid by the United States is high enough, then the possibility of them going to war with Germany will undoubtedly be very high." Chancellor of the Exchequer Lloyd George said.

   "Well, let's do this. Give the Americans as many orders as possible, so that American industry and commerce will go crazy. Only in this way, they will ignore the warnings of the Germans." Prime Minister Asquith said.

   "Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." Everyone replied.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, if we can, we can borrow more money from the United States. In this way, as long as the Americans don't want those loans to be paid back, they can only support us. This will make us and the United States share common interests. "Sir Edward Gray, Foreign Secretary, also said.

   "Very well, your Excellency will handle this matter!" Prime Minister Asquith nodded.

   "Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." Sir Edward Gray said hastily.

"Gentlemen, the current situation is developing in our favor. Maybe, the tide of battle will be reversed soon. Therefore, we must seize this opportunity to win this great battle that concerns the survival of the British Empire Whether the British Empire can survive for a long time depends on this battle!" Prime Minister Asquith said.

   "The British Empire will win!" All the British cabinet ministers shouted. They are full of desire for victory, but also full of confidence.
