Jagged Germany

"The requirements of the United States and the island countries are too great. The German Navy maintains a capital ship size of 1.5 million tons, which has been fully demonstrated. In fact, the German Navy has already reached this size. However, the United States The total tonnage of the current capital ships of the Navy is only 400,000 tons. Let the US Navy build a capital ship of 600,000 tons, which has given the United States a lot of space. The current capital ship size of the island navy is only tens of thousands of tons That's all. The size of a capital ship of 300,000 tons is completely sufficient. The empire did this for your sake. After all, capital ships are not cheap. If you build too many, it will have a negative impact on your country's finances. Huge impact," Wahit said.

"Although the current capital ship size of the U.S. Navy is only 400,000 tons, no one can stipulate that we can only build 600,000 tons of capital ships, right? As for the financial pressure, Germany does not need to worry about it. The United States has enough financial resources. Pay for the construction of our naval capital ships," said U.S. Secretary of State Blaine.

   "It is absolutely impossible to limit the size of the capital ship of the island nation's navy to 300,000 tons. We have enough financial resources to build more capital ships!" Said Ichiro Motono, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the island nation.

  Although, in order to develop the navy and build more warships for the navy, the island countries have decided to tighten their belts. However, they will definitely not back down on this issue. After all, if they want to defeat the German army in the Far East, the navy will be the most important. Only in this way can they ensure that after defeating the German navy, they will expand to Southeast Asia, Australia and India, and realize the country's take-off.

  Wachter and Marshal Reinhard Scheer knew that the United States and the island countries would probably not back down this time. It will be very difficult to achieve their purpose.

   "Well, the German Empire can make a little concession. The total tonnage of the US Navy's capital ships can rise to 90 tons. The total tonnage of the island navy can rise to 600,000 tons!" Wachter said.

   There is no doubt that this is already the bottom line of the German Empire. If the United States and the island countries do not accept it, then this arms control meeting may end in failure.

  US Secretary of State Bryan and Secretary of the Navy Daniels discussed it. Although Germany has backed down, the total tonnage of the US Navy's capital ships has risen to 60% of that of the German Navy. However, this is obviously not what they are willing to accept.

  The representatives of the island countries are obviously also unable to accept the scale of 600,000 tons, which is too far from their requirements.

   "Your Excellency, the United States hopes that the size of our capital ship can reach more than 1.2 million tons. The size of the capital ship of the island country also needs to reach 900,000 tons!" Bryan said.

  Although the United States did not discuss these two figures with the island country, Brian just said it directly. As the backer of the island country, the Americans can still do this. They believed that the islanders would not oppose them on this question.

  Island Foreign Minister Ichiro Motono and Minister of the Navy Kato Yusaburo frowned, but still didn't say much. Although, they will not be satisfied with the size of the capital ship of 900,000 tons, but since the Americans have said so, it is not easy for them to dismantle it. Big deal, when the time is up, just tear up the agreement. Anyway, the size of the capital ship of the island nation's navy is only tens of thousands of tons, and it will take a long time to reach 900,000 tons.

   However, this request made by the United States is still unacceptable to Germany. The United States and the island countries have already joined forces. Together, the tonnage of the battleship has reached 2.1 million tons, surpassing the total tonnage of the battleship of the German Navy by 600,000 tons. In this case, in future wars, it may be difficult for the German Navy to take advantage of capital ships.

  Although, the capital ship of the German Navy is no longer the main force, the real main force is the aircraft carrier. However, on this issue, Germany obviously cannot compromise. If Germany backs down on capital ships, then the United States and island countries will inevitably make progress in the follow-up aircraft carriers and cruisers. By then, the German Navy may be completely at a disadvantage. Therefore, in this regard, Germany cannot back down. At most, they accept the tonnage of the battleships of the US and island navies, which add up to the same size as Germany.

"The empire cannot accept this plan. At most, we can agree that the total tonnage of the capital ships of the US Navy will reach 900,000 tons, and the total tonnage of the capital ships of the island countries' navy will reach 600,000 tons! If these two figures exceed these two figures, the empire will not accept it!" Marshal Reinhard Scheer's attitude suddenly became tough.

  Similarly, the United States and the island countries have never backed down on this issue. For a while, the meeting entered a stalemate.

  As for the representatives of the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the Kingdom of Italy who participated in the meeting, except for echoing the German request at the beginning, they were silent throughout the whole process. They came here to make soy sauce. Knowing that this meeting is a battle between Germany and the United States and island countries, they are unwilling to participate in it, and they simply do not have the strength to participate.

   "Well, I suggest that today's meeting stop here temporarily, and continue tomorrow!" Wahit said.

  US Secretary of State Brian nodded. Indeed, if everyone continues, there will be no results.

  Wacht and Marshal Reinhard Scheer, after the meeting, went to the palace to report the content of the meeting to Emperor Qin Tian. Qin Tian didn't care about this. Of course, the German Empire would not agree to the demands of the Americans and the islanders. In that case, it will be very detrimental to Germany. Anyway, this arms control meeting is just a formality. Even if the talk collapses, it's no big deal. After the breakdown of the negotiations, Germany can put **** on the heads of the United States and the island countries.

  The next day, the meeting continued. However, the differences between the two sides are still very big. Germany can only accept the plan of the 900,000-ton battleship of the United States and the 600,000-ton battleship of the island country. The United States insists on a capital ship of 1.2 million tons, and the island countries also insist on a capital ship of 900,000 tons. This makes it impossible for the two parties to resolve this disagreement.

  Under such circumstances, it seems that there is no need to discuss the subsequent tonnage allocation plan for aircraft carriers and cruisers. Because in the case where the tonnage of the capital ship cannot be reached, there is naturally no need to discuss the tonnage of the subsequent warships.
