The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 228 Is this a defeat?

The so-called one step, step by step, Roosevelt failed to set foot on the ship to Germany immediately in the end, Lieutenant General Simpson just said some angry words, in fact, how can a deputy secretary of the Navy want to go abroad so quickly? When Roosevelt rushed back to Washington overnight, the results of the Sulu Sea naval battle were finally exposed, and the news that the British helped Japan establish radio contact was also exposed! The former was made by the Japanese themselves, while the latter was made by the Germans with the help of the Americans!

The Japanese government was prepared for the American PK, and when it learned that its troops in Manila Bay were beaten and almost wiped out by the Americans, it declared war on the United States directly. At this time, Roosevelt was going to Florida. On the road, there was no mobile phone at that time, and he didn't know about it.

And then when he learned that the United States and Japan had declared war, there was another telegram behind this telegram, which was the news that the U.S. Navy was almost completely wiped out by the Japanese in the Sulu Sea!

"It's impossible!" Just like Roosevelt, when most people in the United States received this battle report, their first reaction was to not believe it! How could the majestic United States of America be beaten up like this by a small Japan?

The glorious Navy of the United States of America wrestled with the British back then.

Back then, the U.S. Navy knocked on the door of Japan with a squadron. Back then, the Japanese were beaten three times and one by the Germans. Back then, with the support of the British, Japan was extremely entangled in fighting the Beiyang Fleet. Why didn't they see each other for three years and just overturned the US-Russian fleet? This is not scientific! We are white!

But then, the information sent from other channels made the proud Yankees have to admit that the U.S. Navy was indeed defeated, and the Americans still failed in Tucson. So now comes the question, since they have been defeated, they must know the current situation of both sides and why they lost. As for what to do in the future, that is a later matter.

"If the information from the Germans is correct, apart from the loss of one Kasuga, the Japanese warships can return to the battlefield after a short period of repairs, especially the four terrible German-made cruisers, which are almost Rub some paint off!" replied an Admiralty officer.

"Remember, we will downplay the German-made cruiser in the future, and the caliber of publicity must emphasize that the British helped the Japanese buy warships. Do you understand? The Germans are just doing business, while the British have a clear purpose , Britain is our enemy! Don't let the people and the people below misunderstand!" Before Roosevelt could speak, the new Secretary of State Day said very seriously.

"What do you mean?" Roosevelt said when only Roosevelt and Day were left in the room.

"What do you mean? The country needs an explanation, the citizens need an explanation, and the one in Bavaria also needs a statement from us. Tell me, what should I do?" Day is also regretful now that his stomach is green.

"The British helped the Japanese buy warships and provided resources. Half of the credit for our failure this time should be attributed to the British. The British are our enemies! Am I wrong in saying that?" Day said angrily. "And this is what the president and the leaders of all parties in Congress mean. The British must be responsible for these things! In the future, our international and diplomatic strategies will be adjusted because of this matter!"

"We fought the British for independence, we fought the British for freedom of trade in the Napoleonic era, and the British supported the South during the Civil War.

And now, when the United States of America wanted to sell this step, the British blocked it again. Do we have to cooperate with the British? "

"The prince is right. The new riser and the old empire are inherently hostile. From now on, it is impossible to be friendly with Britain. This is a high-tension line. Whoever touches it will die! And the United States There are also many German and Austro-Hungarian immigrants in China, and there are also many Irish people. Their power cannot be underestimated. No matter which political party comes to power, they will win over them, and those who were originally neutral will also lean towards Germany. Do you understand?" Dai Yi and Roosevelt are now grasshoppers on the same rope. So he explained the reasons to Roosevelt in detail.

"I always feel that we are being calculated! That German prince must know something." Roosevelt said a little unwillingly.

"But what he said is the truth! It's just that we don't listen. The United States has no other choice now. The British stand on the side of the Japanese, the French look on coldly, and the Russians can't help. It is precious enough, and in the future, the United States will have fewer friends, and we are already isolated!" Day said with a miserable smile.

"And that prince has something in his hands that would ruin half of America's top ranks. Do we have a choice? If you have objections. Those who worry about things being exposed will kill you before you do anything. Lincoln will be assassinated. What's the point of killing a deputy secretary of the Navy? Then countless sewage will be poured on you, your mistakes and shortcomings will be infinitely magnified, and finally kill you from both physical and prestige. You are a politician, you should be able to Distinguish between the serious and the serious?" Day warned one last time. If Roosevelt is still not on the road, whether it is for the United States or himself, then I can only be sorry!

Therefore, under the deliberate operation of the U.S. government, the relationship between the British and the Japanese in this war was unearthed, and even deliberately enlarged. According to U.S. official documents and media, the British were Japan’s accomplices. Funds to help the Japanese buy warships and train the navy, and even the Americans speculated that the British helped formulate this plan when Japan dared to think about the Philippines!

The British ignored the American overtures to Britain over the years. Wantonly trampled on the dignity and national interests of the Americans, the British are now the enemy of the United States, the second largest enemy, and the first largest enemy is naturally the Japanese! For a while, all kinds of pots were thrown over by the Americans.

For example, these books became the best-selling books and periodicals in the United States for a while, and in the numerous articles in major newspapers, the American public gradually realized the malice and hostility of that world empire towards the United States! The political orientation of the entire high-level and the people has changed!
