As soon as the Greek affair ended, German Foreign Minister Müller struck while the iron was hot, and under the leadership of the ambassador to the United States, he frequently met with the US secretary of state, and thanks to the efforts of various countries, the diplomatic envoys of Germany and the United States jointly met with the representative of Siam in the United States and solemnly proposed that the Siamese government come forward to arrest the murderer who committed the murder and wounded the German ambassador, and that he must be extradited to Germany for trial.

This condition made the Siamese delegates feel extremely pressured, and they were unable to arrest the "fugitives" or extradite the perpetrators of the murderous use of force back to China, and there was no other way than to invite the United States to intervene in mediation. After all, the tiny state of Siam was no match for the German Confederation, and it was impossible to fulfill Müller's demands.

Germany has almost become a good warring country on the European continent, the smoke of the German-Italian war has just dissipated, the war between Germany and Greece has also ended as desired, and the German Confederation continues to create the myth of invincibility in the international community.

A few years earlier, the German Empire had launched a protracted war on the eastern and western fronts, defeating Russia in the east and crumbling its regime, attacking France in the west and invading the capital Paris, capturing most of its government officials in one fell swoop, forcing the powerful France to surrender, and this series of battles demonstrated Germany's strong military strength.

The diplomatic turmoil has embarrassed Siam, and the ambassador to the United States knows very well that this is Germany's intention to use its strength to beat Siam, and if this diplomatic turmoil is not handled well, Germany may use this as an excuse to brazenly send troops.

The problems of Greece and Italy were solved by war, and the next target was likely to be Southeast Asia, and while Siam and Germany had long feuded over the energy issue, Miller's words were bland but also aggressive.

The incident happened suddenly, and the ambassador of Siam to the United States realized that Miller was not a good person and immediately asked the US government for help. However, the United States is a person who cannot afford to benefit early, and in the face of absolute interests, the Americans may be able to come forward and reluctantly mediate, but this time it seems that they are also powerless, and the US government actually does not approve of Siam's approach, and quietly adopts an evasive attitude, except for false persuasion, it is not at all too willing to help these Southeast Asians who are not related to them.

Because the United States, which has vested interests in Southeast Asia, still reluctantly convened the "Second Quadrilateral Meeting of Washington Peace Talks," because it could not see the practical significance, Miller categorically rejected the invitation of the US diplomats, and the quadrilateral meeting was forced to abort.

Siam is an important part of the American sphere of interest, because of its special geographical location and unique energy temptation, Germany and Britain have always wanted to intervene in Siam, and France is no exception.

For many years, the colonies of the United States and Britain in Siam have been closely linked, and there are still a considerable number of overlapping interests, and the contradictions are deepening year by year, but because other interests are entangled, the two sides have not completely torn their faces.

Although Siam is small, it is one of the regions in Southeast Asia that is very rich in mineral resources, and the newly discovered large amount of tin ore has made countries envious, while Britain and the United States have once again cracked because of the overlapping interests.

The peace talks were easy to hold, but it was unlikely that Britain would give up its immediate interests, and in addition to Germany's categorical refusal to participate, Britain also announced that it did not want to participate in the conference.

In fact, the diplomatic turmoil was not so serious, however, a well-prepared show had to be played out, and Earhart Milch, who was sent to Singapore to recuperate from his wounds, angrily exposed the incompetence and darkness of the Siamese government in an interview with British journalists, but did not mention the real initiators, and seemed to have nothing to do with Japan from beginning to end.

The countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America wanted to expose the truth of this fact, but they all closed their mouths inexplicably, and the careful Americans also found that Germany was a drunkard who did not mean to drink, and also understood that the perpetrator was never the key to solving the problem, to put it bluntly, this was completely President Eric Adrian's deliberate behavior against Siam for the benefit of his own country.

Soon after, Germany, Britain, France, and Japan joined forces to hold several rounds of consultations, bypassing the United States, and seemed ready to jointly force their presence in Southeast Asia. At this time, the United States' strength in East Asia was very weak, and it was no longer able to prevent the further expansion of the power of these countries in East Asia.

Inside the Hanseatic Palace, Eric was looking at an oversized map, his eyes fixed on the land of Southeast Asia. Berlin, the capital of Germany, which had just experienced the Oolong incident, was fortunately not affected much, and everything was still business as usual, but fortunately, although the Greek war was fought for several months, it did not bring much pain to the German people, but because of the benefits of the war, the country's economy was replenished.

During the German Empire, although the ruling class also wanted to continue to expand its territory to the outside world, because of the lack of overall strength, Britain, the United States and other countries often seized the opportunity, and with the administration of Eric, this sense of expansion seems to have been more obviously expanded.

Although the Toth incident was a false alarm, Eric became more cautious and seemed to be wary of everyone, and those who had dared to talk to the president have now disappeared without a trace, and those who once openly opposed the federal president have also hidden themselves deeper and deeper, which makes Eric feel like a thorn in the back all the time.

In this regard, Alma, an old friend, is helpless, because Germany can only have one president, although he is high, but the height is unbearable, and Eric is destined to be a loner.

Eric's guess was not necessarily correct, and the more he tried to grasp the political and military straw, the more he felt how weak his rule was.

The fact that the German ambassador was beaten by the Japanese for no reason was in fact a diplomatic dispute, and did not rise to the level of a labor expedition, but the drive of profit could ignite the belligerent fire of the Germans at any time. When it comes to expansion, Germany seems to be happy about it. Now, the garrison on the outskirts of Athens, Greece, is an army group, and the international community is speculating about why this army group is so close to the Mediterranean, most likely in preparation for an expedition to Siam.

In fact, Eric's design did not take into account the eventual solution to the problem by war, and Germany and Siam did not need war at all, because Germany wanted only trade, only energy, and for the development of events, Eric was soberly aware that it could not get out of control.

Most of the officials and generals sitting in the conference hall were not discussing how to settle the diplomatic problems of Germany and Siam at all, but rather about the timing and number of people to go on the expedition.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone's discussion is a little off-topic, and it is obviously not possible to declare war on Siam! First of all, we can't go from Europe to Southeast Asia, and we can't transport troops there by car, battalion by battalion, because we don't have a strong maritime force yet. Hipper sat beside Eric, the beard on his lips trembling slightly with excitement.

"After fighting Italy, then Greece, and now immediately attacking Southeast Asia, this will be regarded by other countries as an international troublemaker, and some people have already said that Germany is a war professional, which is extremely unfavorable to our diplomatic environment!" The people in the cabinet are gossiping.

Eric knew that Hipper had always been dissatisfied with the Army, and the Army obviously wanted to borrow warships from Britain, France, Italy, and the United States to expedition to Siam this time.

"Why is General Hipper so cowardly and afraid, is it possible that the Germans have lost face, and let him lose it!" The last thing that Rundstedt wanted to miss was this opportunity to make a difference, and if he could, he wanted to make the German Army all over the world.

"Now the expedition to Southeast Asia is simply a waste of money and labor, and I firmly disapprove of it." Hipper said.

"When our navy ships are launched, the daylilies are cold, Southeast Asia has not been very obedient, it has reached the point where we have to teach a lesson, and we can't bear to humiliate things!" Rundstedt and Hippert have always been at odds, and they have spoken without mercy.

Germany's military spending gave the navy a large proportion, which made Rundstedt very unhappy, and this time Hipper's attempt to thwart the German attack on Siam once again touched his bottom line.

However, on the Air Force's side, the Air Force did not send a representative to the meeting because Eric and Max were secretly investigating Thoth.
