Jagged Germany

  After Germany delineated the no-sail zone, due to various reasons, there were a lot of ships from other countries forcibly breaking into the no-sail zone. Among them, the most are undoubtedly American ships. A large number of American merchant ships and tankers, regardless of the German ban, wanted to transport the urgently needed supplies of the British for huge profits.

  The British made great efforts for these materials, and of course, more importantly, they provoked disputes between the United States and Germany. The prices they charge Americans are very high. The price of a shipment of copper ingots or other non-ferrous metals has tripled before the war broke out.

   It can be seen how crazy those American businessmen will be under the influence of such a large profit. For these profits, they are not even afraid of beheading.

  Of course, the consequence of the Americans doing this is that the breaking fleet has reaped a lot. During the first day of operations, more than fifty American merchant ships were seized. On the second day, it directly rose to more than 80 ships. Three days later, the number of American merchant ships forcibly seized by the German Navy had reached 200.

   Even if the United States is a maritime power, losing so many merchant ships at once is enough to make them feel bad. Not to mention, in the face of the pursuit of the German navy, many Americans resisted. In the process of escaping, several merchant ships were directly sunk, resulting in the death of hundreds of Americans.

  The harsh measures taken by the German Navy undoubtedly shocked all countries in the world. Many people have realized that the Germans are not just talking. Although the huge profits make them tempted, no matter how much money they earn, they still have to spend it! Otherwise, it is useless to make more money.

  This made many merchant ships who originally planned to forcibly break into the no-sail zone had to give up such an idea. For the sake of your own life, let's make less money!

"Your Highness, the phenomenon of merchant ships from various countries forcibly breaking into the no-go zone has basically been controlled by us. Under our strong pressure, those guys are honest. However, I want to let those guys break in for a few more days , In this way, we will be able to get more merchant ships. Maybe even the merchant ships needed by the army to land in the British Isles in the future can be enough.” Marshal Earl Tirpitz smiled.

   "Oh? So many? How many ships have we seized these days?" Qin Tian asked.

   It would be great if Britain could be completely trapped to death because of this. After being cut off from overseas trade, how long can the British survive? Maybe when the German army lands in the British Isles, it will be able to destroy Britain without any effort. As for the seized American merchant ships and the materials transported on them, it was a complete surprise.

"Your Highness, in just three days, we have detained more than 200 American merchant ships. Including merchant ships from other countries, the number is more than 250. The value of those merchant ships alone is an astronomical figure. Not to mention, those merchant ships also transported a lot of supplies we need." Marshal Earl Tirpitz smiled very happily. According to the usual practice, those merchant ships and the goods on the merchant ships belong to the navy after they are sold. The Navy is free to spend that money. Not only can it be used to improve the treatment of officers and soldiers, but it can also build more warships, bringing the strength of the German navy to a higher level.

   "Well, the harvest is indeed good. However, so many merchant ships have been lost. The Americans will definitely not let it go. The foreign minister must be busy." Qin Tian said with a smile.

   "Your Highness, no matter what, these merchant ships are already in our hands, and they will never be returned to the Americans, right?" Earl and Marshal Tirpitz asked, he was a little worried that the cooked duck would fly away.

"Don't worry, Marshal. Since those merchant ships have been seized by us, it is absolutely impossible to return them to the Americans. Anyway, they violated our ban first. Even if they protest, it is just a war of words with them That's all. Anyway, we won't back down this time." Qin Tian said. The Americans have repeatedly challenged Germany in defiance of the German ban. Then, they will naturally have to pay for it. The seized merchant ships are considered the price paid by the Americans for this.

   "What if the Americans refuse?" said Marshal Earl Tirpitz.

"Your Excellency, Marshal, I think you want the Americans to join the Allied Powers because of this, right? In that case, it will be the turn of the Navy to show its talents. At that time, the Imperial Navy can naturally teach the Americans how to behave!" Qin Tian Said.

   "Haha!" Earl Tirpitz, who had been guessed by Qin Tian, ​​couldn't help laughing.

  In fact, the U.S. government was indeed furious about the fact that the German Navy forcibly seized the U.S. merchant ship. Even with the capacity of the United States, the loss of so many merchant ships at once caused them a great headache. Those merchant ship owners are all rich! They joined forces to put pressure on the government, which immediately put the US government under tremendous pressure.

  In addition, the German navy not only detained American merchant ships, but also opened fire and killed many Americans, which made the U.S. government unacceptable. After all, this can already be regarded as Germany's ignorance and slap in the face of the United States.

  The U.S. ambassador to Germany went to the German Foreign Ministry as soon as possible, and urgently met with German Foreign Minister von Kidren Wachter, expressing the U.S. protest to him.

"Your Excellency, the Foreign Secretary, your country's navy brazenly attacked American merchant ships, causing a large number of casualties of innocent American civilians. This behavior is completely an act of war. Your country's unreasonable seizure of American merchant ships has caused a lot of losses to the United States. The U.S. government demands that the German government immediately stop this behavior, and at the same time, apologize to the U.S. government and compensate for the loss!" The U.S. ambassador looked indignant.

  However, von Kidren Wachter looked indifferent, as if he didn't pay attention to the protests of the Americans.

"Your Excellency, the merchant ships of your country ignored the ban of the German Empire, forcibly broke into the no-sail zone designated by us, and transported prohibited war supplies to the UK. That's why the Imperial Navy detained those merchant ships. As for the sunk merchant ships , then I'm sorry. They tried to escape, and the Imperial Navy had to open fire. So, all this is because your country's merchant ships were at fault first, and the Imperial Navy had to do that." Von Kidren? Wahit pushed the blame completely, and also blamed all the responsibilities on the Americans.
