"The Far East is not really important to the Empire, and after the end of the Russo-Japanese War, the British Empire has actually recognized your country's superiority in the Far East, and we are in partnership rather than competition. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info But some countries are not like this, the Americans want to come in, but they don't dare to act because of the Anglo-Japanese alliance, and if one day, because of your country's reasons, this alliance agreement is invalidated, then how can Japan face the powerful American and German alliance? ”

"Think about the whole 12 Bavaria-class battleships and the Americans' New Mexico-class battleships, Nevada-class battleships, and New York-class battleships. The grand occasion when these more than 20 super-dreadnought warships gathered in the western Pacific, right? Of course, if Germany and the United States are in a better mood, they might want to go back to the vicinity of Tokyo Bay. It's also possible. Will you have a choice at that point? Or in other words, does you have a choice? "Lloyd's. There was a hint of sarcasm in George's words.

"After the war, the Germans will send their entire fleet to help the Americans? Are you kidding? Katsura sneered.

"I admit that what I said is a bit incorrect, and it is also that against the Japanese Navy, in fact, it is not possible to send the entire High Seas Fleet, in the North Sea, we lost 6 capital ships, which is a small trauma for the British Imperial Grand Fleet. If it were to be replaced by the Japanese Navy, I'm afraid the Combined Fleet would be a thing of the past, right? "Lloyd's. George stifled a smile and said with a serious face.

"The loss of newly occupied territory is indeed uncomfortable, but it is not unacceptable. After all, we still have the Philippines, and the naval bases of the Americans are still on the other side of the ocean. But what about the British Empire? If this time fails, the German High Seas Fleet will be nailed to your country's throat like a dagger. I'm afraid that from now on, the empire of the sun never sets will also become a thing of the past, right? Katsura Taro deeply felt the difficulty of the other party, at this time Britain and Japan are in a relationship of mutual need, without anyone, the other side is uncomfortable, Japan is not near worry, but far disaster. And Britain is now facing a life-and-death battle. And mutual cooperation and cooperation are the way for both sides to survive.

After another round of mutual harm, both sides rationally chose to avoid this topic of who needs whom, and how you have been playing so aggressively lately, whether it's Katsura Taro or Lloyd. George realized that this level of damage could not scare the other party, after all, the people who could represent the two empires were not frightened!

"We face common threats, some countries have malicious intentions towards the world order we have built, and we sincerely cooperate for the common good. The French have lost hundreds of thousands of troops on the battlefield, the Russians have lost almost a million troops, and every day, millions of pounds of money are turned into shells and supplies, and then consumed on the battlefield of terror, countless lives and hundreds of years of wealth accumulated by great powers are rapidly consumed in this war. And the Empire of Japan, the fourth important member of the Entente, spent its days counting its allies like a miser, which should not have been. "Lloyd's. George said with some excitement.

"We do not deny the efforts and efforts made by Britain, France and Russia in this war to save the world order. The reason why you did this is because you have enough rewards, the war is won, Britain will still be the most powerful country on the planet, and the French have avenged the revenge of the year, taking back Alsace and Lorraine, and even the Ruhr area of Germany will be carved out to France. And France has re-emerged as the number one power in Western Europe! ”

"And what about Russia? They could include parts of East Prussia, as well as Austro-Hungarian Galicia, and even the coveted Black Sea access. And Transcaucasia, and then, as Russia's proxy in the Balkans, Serbia could also get a slice of the collapsed Austro-Hungarian Empire. ”

"And these are only partial changes, think of the German colonies in other places, Angola, German West Africa (Namibia), German East Africa and German Mozambique, these places will eventually be divided into the British and French colonial system, what a big piece of land, more than 4 million square kilometers of land! By the way, there is the Middle East after the collapse of the Turkish Empire, and I think if the Entente wins, I am afraid that if you want to visit Jerusalem, you may not have to go through the transit procedures. and the two river basins, where there is a lot of oil. ”

"Well, now the situation is very clear, the benefits obtained by both your country and France and Russia are quite enormous, and you have not gained so much from any previous war! And what about us? We've only got a few islands! We can't even fully control the German colonies in the Pacific, because now some places are occupied by the Americans, and I don't think that after the end of the war, your government will help Japan to drive out the Americans! ”

"Perhaps when Germany and Austria fell, your country suddenly repented, and felt that the sea in the Far East was still very valuable and should be shared by many parties, and that there was a possibility of improvement in relations between Britain and the United States, while the United States and Japan were mortal enemies, and at that time, I would like to ask, what should we do if Britain decides to abandon Japan? You can rest easy after you solve the German and Austrian problems, but what about us?! Answer me, Mr. Special Envoy! Katsura Taro said solemnly.

Germany is very strong, so why should Britain, France and Russia fight a war?! Because the stakes are equally great, whether it is France, which wants revenge, Britain, which wants to remain the number one in the world, or Russia, which has turned its attention to Western Europe, they all have reasons to fight this war. If they win, then they will be doing well for at least the next few decades.

And what about Japan? There is no urgency now, but in the future, in the face of the United States, which is moving towards the Far East step by step, the pressure on Japan will be greater and greater in the future, and the recovered Britain may also have the intention of regaining control of the Far East, so, in Katsura Taro's view, Britain, France and Russia should work hard like this, because their interests are very large, but Japan, purely for the time being, does not have enough interests for Japan to enter the war!

"The risks we take are too great relative to what we have paid, and unlike those arrogant guys, I know the weight of the Japanese Empire after participating in three wars, not to mention that compared with first-rate countries like Britain, Germany, and France, if it weren't for the fact that Russia was too far away from the Far East, we wouldn't even be able to win against Russia." Not equal to Lloyd's. George spoke, and Katsura Taro continued.
