The British proposed that they form a maritime coalition with the Foot Basin to help the Eagle Sauce resist the German attack in the Atlantic Ocean. This proposal was completely unexpected for the Eagle Sauce!
They had never thought of this idea at all!
However, when this proposal came out, they had to be tempted, because for them, this proposal was very attractive!
“Mr.
President, I think we should accept this proposal.
If we can get the help of the navies of these two countries, we will have a better chance of stopping the German army in the Atlantic.
Once the transportation line from Europe to our mainland is cut off, it will be difficult for Hans to continue to send troops to North America.
In that case, the threat we face in our homeland will be greatly reduced, and we will have time to regroup and eliminate the German troops that have landed and the rebels in the south!
”
Inside the Eagle Sauce, there was a heated discussion among them regarding the proposal of the British Empire. Some people thought that this proposal was acceptable because it was very critical to them!
But some people sneered at it!
“Gentlemen, don’t you know that you are inviting a wolf into your home by doing this? The ambitions of the Foot Basin People are well known to everyone on the West Coast. They started to attack our islands in the Pacific decades ago. If it weren’t for our Pacific Fleet blocking them and preventing them from expanding westward, I’m afraid their influence would have spread to the Eastern Pacific by now. In that case, our Western part might have been occupied by the Foot Basin People!”
This statement was agreed by many people. The threat posed by the Foot Basin people to the Eagle Sauce in the Pacific direction is real. This country is expansionist by nature. After the Meiji Restoration, it immediately began its external expansion!
In just fifty years, they have fought all the countries around them that can be fought. The neighboring countries around them have either been destroyed by them or invaded by them and ceded their land!
But this is not enough to satisfy them. They have now begun to expand vigorously throughout the Far East and even launched a full-scale invasion war against the Celestial Empire!
Although because of the relationship between the Celestial Empire and the Third Reich, the Eagle Sauce lacks sympathy for the Celestial Empire and believes that the Celestial Empire is an accomplice of the Third Reich, so it deserves to be beaten!
However, knowledgeable people in the Eagle Sauce believe that the Third Reich supports the Celestial Empire in the Far East to fight against the Foot Basin, which is in the national interest of the Eagle Sauce!
After all, if the Foot Basin is allowed to eat so easily… If they defeat the Celestial Empire, their own strength will surely be greatly enhanced. By then, a foot basin with tens of millions of square kilometers and a population of over 400 million will be the nightmare of the entire Eagle Sauce. At this time, the population of the Eagle Sauce in the west is less than 10 million, and it is impossible to confront the foot basin!
Therefore, although they don’t like the Celestial Empire, the Eagle Sauce people are still very vigilant about the expansion of the foot basin in the Celestial Empire!
They have been guarding against the foot basin for many years, and the Pacific Fleet is used to deter them and protect the security of their own west.
But at this time, the Pacific Fleet has been withdrawn, resulting in the emptiness of the eastern Pacific and a great threat to the western region, especially the islands controlled by the Eagle Sauce in the Pacific. After lacking the protection of the navy, they may be invaded by the foot basin at any time!
Under this situation, it is difficult for the Eagle Sauce to trust the foot basin. Who knows if the foot basin people are willing to help at this time. Will there be any ulterior conspiracy?
“The Foot Basin people do have some excessive demands, let’s take a look!”
President Roosevelt handed the telegram sent by the British Empire to everyone and asked them to pass it around.
The demands of the Foot Basin people were clearly stated in this telegram. The British Empire did not hide anything and told them all truthfully. The purpose was to let the Eagle Sauce people judge for themselves whether they could accept it. If they could accept it, then they and the Foot Basin coalition forces could come. If they couldn’t accept it, then they wouldn’t come!
After reading this telegram, the senior officials of the Eagle Sauce government were all furious!
“President, we must not agree to this proposal. The Germans are clearly trying to take advantage of the opportunity to divide us. If this is the case, we would rather surrender to Germany than make concessions to them. At least it is not shameful to lose to the Third Reich. But if we allow them to do evil in our backyard, I believe no one in the country can tolerate this!”
“Yes, President, our war with the Third Reich was a civil war among the white people, but the coveting of the Foot Basin people was a provocation by the colored people to us. We must not be defeated by such an inferior nation as the Foot Basin like the Russian Bear did back then!”
During this era, racism in the Eagle Sauce country was still very high. They originally looked down on everyone, not only black people, but also yellow people, and even white immigrants from Europe!
However, after fighting with the Third Reich and being beaten up, they began to realize that the old powers in Europe were still not easy to mess with, so they dared not continue to discriminate against Europeans blatantly, but their attitude towards other people of color was not so good!
Especially for the Foot Basin, this country was once conquered by the Eagle Sauce The naval warships were scared and forced to open the country’s borders. During the Black Ship Incident, the Americans were so proud and powerful. The Americans have looked down on America since seventy years ago. Even though America’s national strength has improved a lot after the Meiji Restoration, the Americans still despise America in their hearts.
At this time, seeing that the country that they had despised for so many years dared to make such an excessive demand, and even asked America to cede land and open important waterways and islands to them, the Americans were furious!
Cession of land , this is the treatment that only defeated countries can enjoy. They did not lose to the foot basin people, so of course they could not accept such an unreasonable request from the foot basin, and even if they had to cede land, they would definitely cede it to the Third Reich!
After all, they were convinced by the defeat to the Third Reich. The other side not only conquered the whole of Europe and defeated a large number of traditional powers in Europe, but they had already proved themselves on the battlefields in Europe.
And now, on the territory of the Eagle Sauce itself, a small number of German troops have accomplished an incredible victory of the weak over the strong, and they have suffered heavy casualties. The casualties of the US military in one battle were more than those in the First World War!
This made the Eagle Sauce people realize the powerful strength of the Third Reich. In layman’s terms, they were defeated by the Third Reich!
People all respect the strong and look down on the weak. The performance of the Third Reich on the battlefield proved their strength, and therefore won the respect of the Eagle Sauce people. Therefore, ceding land to the Third Reich, the Eagle Sauce people can still accept some of it in their hearts, but what is your foot basin? What ability do you have to ask for land from the Eagle Sauce?
