Jagged Germany

Chapter 959: Mud can't support the wall (ask for a monthly ticket)

??Across the ocean, the United States and the British government in exile in Canada are also very concerned about the war between Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Austro-Hungarian Empire withdrew from the Allies and turned against Germany. This was originally planned by the Americans. For this reason, they paid a loan of 200 million US dollars for this. However, a loan of $200 million is nothing compared to the benefits obtained.

??If Germany suffered heavy losses in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, no matter how much money it paid, the United States would never be stingy.

??President Woodrow Wilson stayed in the office all day, waiting for news from Europe.

"Gentlemen, if a war breaks out between the Germans and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, with the size of their forces, it may be a large-scale war involving millions of people. The whole of Europe will be smashed by them!" Woodrow ?President Wilson said enthusiastically.

??It is very difficult for the new continent to replace the old one. After all, compared to the New World, which has just begun to develop for two hundred years, the Old World has already developed very powerfully. Unless years of wars completely destroy the old continent, otherwise, there is almost no possibility of the new continent replacing the old one. President Woodrow Wilson had undoubtedly been looking forward to such a war.

??Originally, World War I should have been an opportunity for the United States. But unfortunately, Germany's performance in this war was really amazing. It actually took only one year to establish the victory. A year and a half later, Germany had almost won the war.

?? Of course, this war caused great damage to Europe. However, only Belgium, northern France and the British Isles were destroyed. Elsewhere in continental Europe, losses were very slight. This makes the overall strength of Europe not affected too much. This also makes Europe's strength still far stronger than that of America.

??Germany's original industrial output value lagged behind that of the United States. However, after obtaining the whole of Belgium and most of France, Germany's industrial output value is no less than that of the United States. Coupled with the huge territory and colonies acquired by Germany during the war, it is only a matter of time before it surpasses the United States. This gave the United States a serious sense of crisis.

?? It is precisely because of this that the Americans did everything possible to provoke the Austro-Hungarian Empire, hoping that a large-scale war would break out again in the hinterland of Europe. The longer the war is fought, the worse it will be, the greater the loss, and the better it will be for the United States!

?? "Your Excellency, it would be interesting if the Austro-Hungarian Empire broke out with all its strength and the Germans desperately!" said War Minister Garrison.

"Carl I is a very headstrong and conceited person. He will never allow his army to fail the Germans. However, I think we should let the Austro-Hungarian Empire see hope. Only in this way can Karl I persevere." Secretary of State Bryan said.

??President Woodrow Wilson nodded: "Send a telegram to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, telling them that our army has begun to mobilize and will soon set off for Europe. Our fleet is about to go to sea!"

?? "Yes, Your Majesty." Brian nodded. He knew that this was nothing more than deceiving the Austro-Hungarian Empire. If Karl I, the emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, hadn't seen hope, the battle might not have been so fierce.

?? "Your Excellency, the fleet can go to sea at any time. However, what should we do if we encounter a German fleet in the Atlantic Ocean?" Secretary of the Navy Daniels asked.

??The current U.S. Navy is not as powerful as the German Navy. But the same strength is not weak. Beginning in 1914, the U.S. Navy's large-scale shipbuilding program began. For two and a half years, the first battleships have entered service. Subsequent warships will also be in service in the next few years. This will make the U.S. Navy even more powerful.

?? "If our navy encounters the Germans' Atlantic Fleet, will it be able to eat them?" President Woodrow Wilson asked.

"Your Excellency, if it is just the German Atlantic Fleet, there is no problem eating them. Now, our navy has two 'Pennsylvania-class' battleships, three 'New Mexico-class' battleships, and two 'Tennessee-class' battleships. 'Battleship and four 'Colorado-class' battleships. Among them, the seven battleships of the first three tiers are equipped with 12 356mm main guns, and the four 'Colorado-class' battleships are equipped with 406mm main guns. Once encountering the Germans If it is the Atlantic Fleet, we can completely eat them!" Minister Daniels said confidently.

??Although the number of capital ships of the U.S. Navy is not many, each one is very powerful. In particular, the four "Colorado-class" battleships that have just entered service, even with the help of the British, adopted 406mm main guns, which are very powerful.

?? "If this is the case, let the fleet go. However, you must not open fire without an order. Unless the Germans attack first." President Woodrow Wilson said.

?? "Yes, Your Excellency the President." Minister Daniels immediately went to give the order.

??Since the U.S. Navy was directly forced back by the German Navy in the last world war, this has made the U.S. Navy feel ashamed. They all hope that one day they will be able to avenge their shame.

?? Now, it almost seems to have come.

?? "Your Excellency, a telegram from the embassy in Austria-Hungary." The secretary hurried in.

??President Woodrow Wilson immediately took the telegram from the secretary and read it. However, soon his face became very ugly. Those ministers in the US cabinet immediately realized that it seemed that the situation in Europe was not good, and everything was not developing in the direction they expected.

?? "Your Excellency, what happened?" Secretary of State Bryan asked.

??Other cabinet ministers are closely staring at President Woodrow Wilson. They also wanted to know what made President Woodrow Wilson lose his composure.

?? "I'm sorry, everyone, I lost my composure. The news I got really made him so angry!" President Woodrow Wilson said.

"I have to admit that the allies we chose this time are completely muddy and can't support the wall. Those idiots in the Austro-Hungarian Empire behaved really badly. Karl I couldn't even control the states under him, and he still Dare to be hostile to Germany and clamor to defeat Germany, I really don't know where he got the courage!" President Woodrow Wilson said angrily. He suddenly had a feeling of fooling others but fooling himself into a ditch.
