"I have never encountered such a situation. There were 6 people participating in the negotiations, three of them were Germans, and one and a half of them were in the same group as the Germans!" During the formal negotiations, looking at General Benson and General Pershing beside him, the US vice president said in his heart.

On both sides of the meeting, the head of the German delegation was naturally Crown Prince Ruprecht, then Prince Albert, representing the German Emperor, and then Earl Kariput, representing the Bavarian military. The Americans naturally had Taft as the leader, responsible for discussing political matters, while General Benson and General Pershing were responsible for discussing future military issues.

"Dear His Royal Highness, the main purpose of my arrival here on behalf of the United States of America this time is to confirm one thing, that is, is the tacit understanding we reached before still being implemented? Our common goal is to severely damage Britain and teach France a lesson. And now, Germany's military operations seem to be deviating from this goal," Taft said.

"You are taking this out of context." Prince Albert said first: "There is a premise in the agreement reached by both sides that when France is no longer an enemy of the German Empire, we can consider returning to the border before the outbreak of the war, and our colleagues promise to be more tolerant of France. But now, the actions of the French are obviously not friendly, and they rejected the conditions we have proposed."

"To be honest, your conditions are really... unexpected." Taft originally wanted to use a derogatory term, but after thinking about it, he still held back.

"We do not allow the French to be fences, and it is even more impossible to let this country that has been enemies with the Empire for decades and caused millions of casualties on the battlefield because of the other party's verb submission. Therefore, unless the French firmly stand on our side and atone for their previous actions, we can consider letting France go. For the enemy, I think your country will do the same, right?" Prince Albert asked back.

"Your country's doing this can only continue hatred. I am frank, if your country is more tolerant in the Franco-Prussian War, then this war of suffering from life may not have happened, so..." Taft said.

"Very good. I admire your noble sentiment very much. So good, can I ask you a question?" Crown Prince Ruprecht spoke.

"Please speak," said Taft.

"If the Japanese government is willing to return our country's colonies to your country, will the United States of America still launch a war against Japan?" Ruprecht said.

"Of course...it's started!" Taft said in his heart. The United States' goal is not only to bring back the original German East India colony, but also to spit out the Dutch East India that Japan embezzled during World War I. Otherwise, Japan would be too powerful.

As for maintaining justice and avenging the Netherlands? This is even more impossible to say. After all, the Americans also want to occupy some of the Dutch East India regions. Not to mention how much economic benefits it has, but to say that when confronting Japan in the future, the United States needs to have a reliable base for advancement. Well, if Taft proposed the so-called upholding justice at this time, will the United States occupy the Dutch colonies after the war? Occupation is just a dog biting a dog for outsiders. If it does not occupy it, it would be a big loss?!

But Taft also reacted quickly. He just said that Germany should tolerate the French and then create a better future together. If he wants to continue to launch, wouldn’t it be like slapping himself in the face? If he doesn’t launch it? I guess Roosevelt will be replaced in the next meeting...

"Can I understand that Mr. Taft used the standards of the Virgin to demand the German Empire and the standards of the mortals to demand your country? This standard is very interesting."

"As a soldier, I can only put away the sword in my hand after the other party completely surrenders and takes a practical repentance. Tolerance is God's business, and we must protect the security and interests of the empire. National interests and security are above everything else. I think everyone here agrees with this, right?" The crown prince did not continue to tangle on this issue. Taft has been defeated for a while, and this is not the core issue, so it is meaningless to hold on to it.

"We can understand your country's ideas, but at the same time, we also hope that your country can understand our concerns. There are very complex financial ties between the United States and the French Republic, and our biggest enemy is the United Kingdom! So, we should try our best to point the attack at the British. And, haven't you said that the British are the biggest enemy?" Taft said after adjusting his emotions.

"Your Excellency should have read my secret message to President Roosevelt, right? The above is our final solution. If the French make a wrong choice, then they have to pay the price. We must let the French know that the patience of the German Empire is limited, and tolerance is not indulgence!"

"So, this time, the conditions we offer to the French are not simply to make way for a passage. We require that before Germany launches an attack, the French Republic will try its best to seize all vehicles that transport supplies and supplies to the British army! and destroy some railways!" Ruprecht said.

"This is even more excessive than the previous conditions," Taft said.

"I said that this is a necessary price! It is the price that France must pay for indifference to the friendship of the empire! It is also the key to our destruction of the British Expeditionary Force. If the United States does not want to see the British in the Japanese army in Southeast Asia in the future, then please cooperate with us. If the French do it, then the treatment we promised to give to the French remains unchanged!" Ruprecht said.

The treatment of surrendering is naturally different from asking the other party to surrender with a knife on his neck. If the French agreed before, the prince would have forgotten it. But now, millions of German troops have already set up a frontal battle in the French. The fight is about to start, and the French admit defeat when they are afraid. This matter cannot be forgotten. Ruprecht wants to completely eliminate the French's idea of ​​being a fence-bet, and the best way is to force the French to do more!

To be honest, even in World War II, for most countries, the land is still dominated by railway transportation, not to mention the current Western Front! Due to the Luftwaffe air strikes, the supply transported by Britain to the Western Front has begun to detour through Normandy and then transported to the front line by railway. It can be said that the French are actually grasping the British's blood vessels now!
