Chapter 1053 Roosevelt's Advice

"My friend, thank you for your comfort. But can you tell me the real purpose of your visit today? I think we don't need to go around in circles!" asked Marshal Tirpitz. He knew that #Za Shichang came to visit him today, and it was definitely not just to comfort him. Although the personal friendship between him and #Za Shichang was pretty good, everything at this time was definitely not that simple.

"Okay! Alfred, I hope to know Germany's position after the defeat of the German Navy's high seas fleet! What will Germany do next? Will it continue to fight?" Deng Shichang asked. #Za Shichang, as the president of the Chinese Navy University and former commander of the local fleet, is very clear about how much impact Germany will have on China if it decides to withdraw from the war. Last night, he had received a telegram from the Admiralty Department, and Marshal Zhang Cheng, the Minister of Navy, asked him to figure out the German government's next position as much as possible and whether the war will continue. At the same time, he also hoped that he could influence Marshal Tirpitz and make Germany firm in the war as much as possible.

Marshal Tirpitz was silent. He didn't know how to answer this question at all. Germany had great confidence in the German navy's high seas fleet, but the final result was a crushing defeat, which gave German Emperor William II, the German military and the German government a great blow. There was no doubt that Germany's confidence had been shaken. Although no one has proposed to withdraw from the war yet, this is almost certain. The German army had been in a confrontation with the British and French coalition forces on the Western Front and lacked the ability to continue to make breakthroughs. The navy, which was highly anticipated, also failed. In such a situation, it is conceivable what choice Germany would make.

"My friend, was the Chinese government asked you to come? I am very clear about your personality." Marshal Tirpitz said.

"Alfred, our government is indeed very concerned about this. His Majesty the Emperor also attaches great importance to this. You should know that this is related to our country's overall strategy in the future!" Deng Shichang said frankly.

"Thank you for your honesty. However, I don't know what the Emperor is thinking about. But I know very well that the defeat of the High Seas Fleet to His Majesty was very big. In addition, the army basically had no hope of winning. In addition, the upper channel of Shanghai was blocked, and Germany's war potential has been greatly affected. If persisting in fighting, it will not be of any benefit to Germany. If the Allies are willing to give in, His Majesty the Emperor and the government may really make a decision to withdraw from the war!" Marshal Tirpitz said. The reason why he told Deng Shichang was that

One very important reason for the battle was that he was unwilling to end the war. Although the main force of the high seas fleet had been eliminated, the German navy still had a certain combat power. At least the submarine force of the German navy has always caused a great blow to Britain. If China is willing to increase its support for Germany and make greater concessions, perhaps Germany would be willing to continue the war. And the German navy may have a chance to avenge the previous shame. Marshal Tirpitz has always regarded defeating the British navy as a goal of victory, and he really doesn't want to give up halfway!

"Alfred's emperor and government both hope that Germany can continue to fight. We can work together to break the old world system and establish a new world system led by us. This has always been our goal! Now, although there have been some setbacks, I believe that with our efforts, we will definitely win in the end!" Deng Shichang said.

The alliance between Germany and China officially re-divides the world in order to defeat the Western powers. However, both Germany and China hope to occupy leadership in the future world. Now, Germany's ambitions seem to be shattered with the defeat of the naval high seas fleet. There is no doubt that

This is definitely not what China wants to see. Although China largely hopes that Germany can hold back Britain, France and Russia for China, so that China can calmly solve the United States, the enemy. If Germany withdraws, all the pressure from the Allied Power will be suppressed by China.

"My friend said this. However, Germany's current national strength is no longer enough to continue this war. The people's lives are already very difficult, and we need to consider more. Perhaps, starting this war from the beginning is a mistake!" Marshal Tirpitz looked compassionate.

"This old guy is still deliberately pretending to be garlic!" Deng Shichang cursed in his heart. He knew very well that Tirpitz said these words were entirely to win greater benefits for Germany. Now, China has the desire for Germany, so he can only be the sucker and let the Germans slaughter it hard.

"Alfred, I think we must first figure out the position of His Majesty the German Emperor, the German government and the German military. If Germany is willing to continue the struggle, China will not sit idly by and see Germany in trouble. We can discuss the specific situation in detail at that time. The Imperial Foreign Minister Tang Shaoyi is ready to go to Berlin. He will take a naval warship to the Persian Gulf and then come to Berlin through the Baghdad Railway. If Germany is determined to continue fighting, we can fight side by side until the final victory. Of course, if Germany is timid, then China has no choice. But we will never compromise and we will continue to fight!" Marshal Deng Shichang said.

Marshal Tirpitz nodded. The Chinese reaction was long as he expected. However, such a national event could not be decided. Therefore, he could not give Deng Shichang any promises, so he could only reply to #Zhichang, who would convey China's opinions to German Emperor William II. The specific decision would be discussed with the government and the military before answering. However, for Marshal Tirpitz himself, he was very happy to continue the war.

Unlike Germany's pessimism, the Allies had already begun to celebrate their victory. Among the major countries of the Allies, they regarded the British navy and the American coalition's joint defeat of the German navy's high seas fleet as a great victory of great significance. Some optimistic people even regarded this victory as the turning point of this world war, claiming that from this moment on, the initiative of the world war had been transferred to the Allies. Although, on the European battlefield, the German army still had a certain advantage. The Chinese army also had an absolute advantage in the Mexican battlefield. But they believed that these advantages would soon be lost. The Allies would defeat the allies and the evil China, completely win the victory of this world war, and return the whole world to its previous development trajectory.

On the morning of June 1, the main media of the Allied Powers published news that the British Navy and the US Navy severely damaged the German Navy's high seas fleet and annihilated the main force of the high seas fleet. This made the people of the Allied Powers, who had been in tension and uneasy since the war began. Until now, the news they heard the most was that the front line suffered a tragic defeat, how many troops had been lost, which cities were occupied by the Germans or Chinese, etc. Now, they finally waited for the news of victory.

In the major cities of the Allied countries, parades celebrating victory also broke out, as if victory was at hand. Similarly, governments of various countries also received the love of the people and their support increased sharply. This is undoubtedly the most important affirmation for the governments of these so-called democratic countries. With the strong support of the people, this means that they can continue to become leaders of the country. After enjoying the beauty of power, no one is willing to give up the power in their hands.

At 9 a.m. Washington time, June 1, Theodore.

After attending a speech to the people, Roosevelt returned to the office. Due to time zones, when the British Navy and the US Navy joined forces to defeat the German Navy, it was already 7 p.m. Washington time. Although senior officials of the US government's cabinet received relevant news as soon as possible, ordinary people only learned about the relevant news through the next day's radio and newspapers. Of course, this did not affect the American people's excitement in their hearts. There were many people in front of the White House celebrating victory. Before, many of them came to the White House to look at Theodore.

President Roosevelt protested against the U.S. Army's crushing defeat on the Central Mexico front.

Theodore.

When Roosevelt returned to the office, Vice President Woodrow.

Wilson was already waiting for him. Although, Theodore.

Roosevelt was the president of the United States, but Woodrow.

However, Wilson is an agent launched by the Democratic Party. Many officials in the US government cabinet are also from the Democratic Party. Therefore, Theodore.

Roosevelt has always respected Woodrow.

Wilson, if there is any big deal, he is willing to go with Woodrow.

Wilson discussed. He knew that the United States can no longer have internal strife and needs unity to defeat powerful enemies.

"His Excellency the President, it seems that the enthusiasm of the people has been stimulated, and everyone has come out of the shadow of failure!" Woodrow.

Wilson said.

“Yes, I totally agree with your opinion.
