Jagged Germany

Chapter 1153: Island nation's determination (seeking monthly ticket)

"Your Excellency, Foreign Minister, the U.S. government is very angry at your government's attempt to betray the anti-German alliance and join the allies! We hope that your government can think about it carefully. Don't forget that the reason why the island country can have today is the support of the U.S. government It is essential. We don't want the two countries to become enemies!" The US ambassador to the island country looked hostile.

??The foreign minister of the island, Ugaki Kasunari, had a wry smile in his heart. He didn't know why the Americans knew so quickly. However, this is obviously absolutely unacceptable. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Your Excellency, the island country is a grateful country. We remember all the help the US government has given us over the years. We will never betray the anti-German alliance. We hope that those rumors will not affect the relationship between our two countries. The relationship between them!" Ugaki Kazusei said.

?? "I hope so! Our government believes that your government will make the right choice!" The American ambassador said coldly.

?? After repeatedly guaranteeing that the island country would not betray the United States, Ugaki Kazusei sent the American ambassador away.

??After that, he quickly hung up a call to the Prime Minister's Office, and then drove to the Prime Minister's Office to report the situation to Konoe Fumimaro. He knew that this problem had to be solved properly. Otherwise, it will have a huge impact on the island nation.

??When Ugaki Kazunari arrived at the prime minister's office, several other important cabinet ministers also arrived. However, everyone obviously already knew about it, and their faces were not very good-looking. Especially Prime Minister Ikeda Chengbin, he was the one who came up with the idea of ??contacting the Germans. As a result, this happened now. Therefore, if he is to be held accountable, he obviously cannot escape.

?? "Masters, everyone must have known what happened, right? The U.S. government has already learned about our secret contact with Germany, and has begun to ask questions." Prime Minister Fumimaro Konoe said.

?? "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, this is my responsibility. I didn't expect it to turn out like this!" Ikeda Chengbin immediately admitted his mistake.

?? "Ikeda-kun, you also set out for the benefit of the empire. So, you can't blame you for this!" Konoe Fumimaro shook his head. It was agreed by the cabinet to contact the German government at the beginning, and it is obvious that the responsibility cannot be attributed to Ikeda Chengbin alone.

"Yes! I can feel that there is a conspiracy here. Our contact with the Germans was originally conducted in secret. Now, it is known to the Americans. There is no doubt that it was done by the Germans. They can't wait We have fallen out with the United States. In that case, the situation will be more beneficial to them." Said the Minister of the Sea Mitsumasa Minai.

?? Several other cabinet ministers also expressed their views that this matter was a German conspiracy.

?? "Misters, let's talk about it, what should we do now? The Americans have already issued a warning to us. We obviously have no time to think about other things." Konoe Fumimaro said.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, we have already analyzed it before. The way to join the Allies has been blocked by the Germans. If they are willing to give us the two colonies of Nanyang and Australia, we may still take a risk. However, the Germans do not agree to give us Nanyang and Australia, they only agree that we occupy the territory of Bu Russia. Therefore, the Germans will never live in peace with us. There will inevitably be a war between us and the Germans. If we wait until After the Germans defeated Bu Russia and the United States, we basically have no chance of winning. Only when the United States and Bu Russia still exist and are still very strong, we will have a slight chance of winning!" Seishiro Itagaki said .

"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister. Now, we have no choice. We can only go to war against Germany according to the original plan. Although, the Germans are very powerful. But if we can do our best with the United States and Russia, it may not be possible. There is no chance of defeating Germany. After all, none of our countries are weak. When it comes to the life and death of the country, everyone will definitely not hide anything. If this is the case, there will still be some chances of winning in defeating Germany!" Minai Mitsumasa also said.

??At this time, the secretary of the Prime Minister's Office came in and said a few words in the ear of Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro.

??Suddenly, Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro's face became quite ugly.

?? "Everyone, just now, the Americans ordered to stop exporting bulk goods to us. Obviously, the Americans are warning us!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

?? "Damn it, the Americans are forcing us! Your Excellency Prime Minister, we urgently need the goods exported by the Americans. The construction of the 'Yamato-class' battleships also requires special steel imported from the United States!" said Marine Minister Mitsumasa Minai.

?? "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, let the United States urgently need to support us no matter what. Otherwise, our military strength will be greatly weakened." Itagaki Seishiro also said.

?? Konoe Fumimaro nodded, the Americans undoubtedly pinched the island country by seven inches.

?? "Everyone, it seems that we have no other choice but to compromise with the Americans. However, there is no other way, and we decided to compromise with them in the first place." Fumimaro Konoe smiled wryly.

?? "Ugaki-kun, contact the Americans and tell them that we are preparing to launch an attack on the Germans. Let them resume the supply of resources to us!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

?? "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, it may be difficult to convince the Americans with just such a sentence!" Ugaki Kazushige was a little embarrassed.

?? Konoe Fumimaro thought for a while, glanced at Seishiro Itagaki and Mitsumasa Minai, and said, "How long will it take for the army and navy to prepare for war?"

?? "Your Excellency Prime Minister, if the army wants to start mobilizing, it will take three months to be ready for war!" Seishiro Itagaki said. The island army now has only forty standing divisions. If you want to launch an attack on Nanyang and Australia, you will undoubtedly need more troops. At least, the size of the army must be expanded to hundreds of divisions. In this way, they will have a chance of winning.

?? "Your Excellency Prime Minister, the navy also needs three months to prepare!" Minai Mitsumasa said. The combined fleet needs to be reorganized. All kinds of materials that need to be consumed in the war must also be prepared, and these will take time.

"Okay, tell the Americans. Three months later, that is, before the end of January 1940, we will launch an attack on Nanyang. The United States must continue to support us in resources. Otherwise, it will seriously affect our war potential Yes!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

?? "Hi, Your Excellency Prime Minister!" Ugaki Kazunari nodded.
