The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2862 The British Abacus 2

Is Betty telling the truth? Of course it’s the truth! But, did Betty tell all the reasons? That is definitely not the case! In fact, after experiencing the initial unpleasantness of Anglo-Japanese cooperation, the British made detailed plans for the future relations between Britain and Japan and the United States. They had long-term plans and short-term plans. Now, the British are implementing a short-term plan.

Roosevelt knew very well that although the two countries were in a competitive relationship and would inevitably have a war in the future in order to compete for world hegemony, he also knew that the United States and the United States would definitely not fight against each other now. Even his generation could not see the two countries. It’s the day when the national swordsmen and soldiers meet! Because neither side has completed its strategic layout, nor is it willing to take action now.

By the same token, the British also know this. From a purely British perspective, they will not participate in a large-scale war within 20 years, because the war has caused too much trauma to the UK! It is not an exaggeration to say that one third of a generation has been lost! Therefore, they need to recuperate, and even the issue of finding allies must be pushed back.

As a result, a very interesting thing has emerged now, that is, both the United States and Britain regard Germany as their number one enemy, but at the same time, they will choose to maintain peace for a long time. However, more than ten years will not be the best for mankind. It’s still too long! When the time comes, everyone has to find something to do for themselves...

Roosevelt believed that in order to prepare for the decisive battle in the future, the Americans had to do two things in the Pacific. The first thing was to kill or severely damage Japan, so that the strategic frontier of the United States of America could enter East Asia and eliminate worries in the Pacific. And the second thing is to conquer Britain! Note that in Roosevelt's plan, his attitude towards Britain was to conquer, not to form an alliance or cooperate! What does it mean?

The meaning is very clear, the United States just needs an obedient little brother! In Roosevelt's vision, Britain would not only fall from the pinnacle of world power, but would even only exist as a middle power. What is a middle power? That’s the level of France! Even the Americans did not allow Britain to have the strength and potential that Austria-Hungary had after the war! This plan is indeed based on strategic considerations, but at the same time, even Roosevelt said this, considering what the British did to the United States, the United States will never forget it! This is no longer two hedgehogs hugging each other for warmth, but one hedgehog trying to pull out the thorns from the other hedgehog!

To achieve the second goal, the first step is to attack the remaining British colonies! The United States will not seize British colonies, but it will allow autonomous territories such as Canada and Australia to become independent from British control! Britain has lost its entire African colony. If Australia and Canada become independent again, then Britain will really be a phoenix with no feathers, worse than a chicken!

As the Pacific War continued, and after the Americans gained strategic advantages at the expense of huge tactical losses, the ambitions of the Americans began to expand dramatically. This expansion was not only reflected in being tough on Germany on the Middle East issue, but also in In the Pacific, they took action against Britain, a guy who had always been at odds with the United States and kept stabbing in the back! The Americans really haven’t touched New Zealand now.

But if the British still can't make a strong response after taking Christmas Island, then it's hard to say!

As for the strong oppression of the Americans, the countermeasures that the British can take are very limited, because if the Americans take action against New Zealand or Australia, no country in the world except Japan will provide substantial help to the British! Germany and Austria are naturally happy to see this happen, and the French have become the feud of the British. Therefore, under the current situation, the British can only resist the American offensive against the British in the Pacific by working closely with the Japanese!

"If the Americans still have room for expansion after the Pacific War, the situation in Oceania will be very bad. By then, it will be a foregone conclusion that we will go to Australia and New Zealand, and the Japanese will never participate again. A war between the United States and Britain." In the House of Lords, the new British Prime Minister told members of Parliament.

However, if Britain and Japan are solely relied on to fight against the Americans, it is actually not enough. Britain's current strength is not even one-fifth of what it was before the war, and it is absolutely impossible for Britain to be directly involved in the war. Therefore, while the Germans and Americans maintained close cooperation, the British's help to Japan was actually based on the principle of making money and taking one step at a time. The British did not know whether the Japanese could escape this disaster, because the Germans attitude is not clear.

But now, as the United States and the United States have completely fallen out over the Middle East issue, and when even the last trace of superficial tenderness between the United States and the United States no longer exists, the British know that their opportunity has come! When the Germans choose neutrality or even become hostile to the United States, no matter how capable the Americans are, they will not be able to change the world!

As a result, the British now chose to side with the Japanese without hesitation and actively planned the territory of the Pacific region after the war. However, this time, the British suddenly realized that in the future Pacific situation, the British opinions and the Germans The opinions are strikingly similar! Both countries believe that in the future Southeast Asian chessboard, it is not good for one side to become too big, because it will stimulate the ambitions of one side, and it is not okay to isolate the United States and Japan, because it will give each other extra strength. to think about other things.

On this issue, Germany and Britain have reached an agreement, and have even had private exchanges with each other. For example, among the German petroleum products imported by the British, a special lubrication product for use in tropical Pacific waters has been added. oil, and the Germans did not refuse.

The British also believe that in the future, the strength and strength of the United States and Japan should be intertwined, and they should bite each other, just like two wrestling rhinos, with their sharp horns conflicting with each other and unable to separate! This is not only to contain the Americans, but also a restriction to the Japanese, because the British know that only by allowing the Japanese to face pressure from the United States at all times can Japan be truly friendly with the British and not be hostile to the British. What bad intentions do the colonies in the Far East and South Asia have? Therefore, the British will definitely help the Japanese fight this war. They do not expect the Japanese to win, as long as they lose within a certain limit!
