"We want to maintain stability in the Far East." Roosevelt sipped his cocktail and said to Kichizaburo Nomura: "If the army of the island nation continues to develop into Southeast Asia, then we will see it as a threat to us." ”

Now, Roosevelt wanted to warn the island countries that if they continued to develop southward, they would threaten US interests in Southeast Asia, and although the United States was disturbed by the situation in Europe and could not get out, that did not mean that the island countries could do whatever they wanted.

"Yes, I also want to maintain stability in the Far East." Nomura Kichizaburo said that as a diplomat, he needs to switch roles in a variety of roles, and now, whether it is from the position of a good friend or in order to stabilize and confuse Americans, he must make a statement that the stability of the Far East is very important.

After drinking this glass of wine, Nomura Kichizaburo asked again, "How's the matter in the Pacific?" Haven't you been in touch with your navy yet? ”

At this moment, Marshall, the chief of staff, hurriedly walked over from outside and whispered a word in Roosevelt's ear.

"What's wrong? My friend? Kichizaburo Nomura asked.

"Our Navy, in the Pacific Ocean, sank a submarine and, now, is confirming." Roosevelt said: "By the time my order arrived, the nearby surface ships had already begun salvage after the sinking. ”

"What?" Nomura Kichizaburo stood up suddenly, and his face was also flushed: "This is an insult to our big island country!" I'm sorry, I'm taking my leave for now! ”

At this moment, he returned to the role of a diplomat.

He came here to stop the US Navy from encircling and suppressing his own submarines, but now, his own submarines have been sunk, so no matter what he says here, it will be too late!

He needs to go back and see what kind of attitude the island country has on its own, and the worst consequence will be for those hardliners to start a war against the United States!

"The Navy believes that it was the German submarine that sank it, and it has nothing to do with your submarine." Looking at the back of Nomura Kichizaburo leaving, Roosevelt said.

Kichizaburo Nomura's back shook a little, but he still didn't look back, isn't that an excuse? This excuse is a greater insult and a greater irritation to the island nation!

"Let's go." Roosevelt said, "It seems that we can't rest again tonight." ”

If Roosevelt had given an order immediately when he received the news from Kichizaburo Nomura, he could have avoided this accidental attack, but for various purposes, Roosevelt deliberately delayed time.

Now, the mistake has been made.

"Now, our fleet is still salvaging at sea, and all kinds of items found can prove that this is a submarine of an island country." "Guys, we've caused this misfire," Marshall said. Now, it's up to me to respond. ”

There can be two ways to deal with it, either say hello to the island country, admit that it was a mistake, and at most compensate for some losses, and that's over.

Or, just insist that it is the German submarine that is attacking you, as for why there is no news about the submarine of the island country, there are too many reasons, the submarine has a mechanical accident, the submarine's radio is broken, and even the personnel on the submarine are in the opposite direction... In short, it has nothing to do with the American side.

At that time, the island countries will definitely protest seriously, but so what? If you don't recognize it, what can the island country do?

Therefore, everyone is not too nervous, this is an ordinary incident, and it is not the United States that suffers anyway.

Everyone, you say a word, I say a word, talk about how to deal with it, in short, it is to play the island country once, even if it is in the past, no matter how angry the island country is, things will always calm down.

However, after a few puffs of cigar, Roosevelt spoke.

"Guys, have you ever thought about why the submarine of the island country appeared in that sea area?"

Roosevelt's words had another meaning.

The island countries have always developed in East Asia, but the ambitions of the island people must not be underestimated, because the island people will not be satisfied with the status quo, and once they attack Southeast Asia, they will certainly pose a threat to the United States.

In this case, the United States will not sit idly by, the United States has a powerful Pacific Fleet, and the United States will threaten the maritime transportation of the island countries at any time, so the island countries will not be willing to be threatened by the United States.

This submarine appeared in the Pacific Ocean, and it is only 300 nautical miles away from Hawaii, the US territory in the Pacific Ocean.

Roosevelt's idea made everyone stunned, the island country, that small land, dare to think about the United States?

"Mr. President, this idea of yours is a little too shocking, isn't it?" Marshall said.

"Yes, I don't want the islanders to think this way, but the submarine of the island country running into the Pacific Ocean is always a threat to us." Roosevelt said.

"Mr. President, I support your analysis." The Secretary of State said.

"I propose that we pass a resolution that in the Pacific Ocean, any submarine sailing is illegal and will be attacked by us, and it is the mission of our Pacific Fleet to maintain absolute safety on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean." Roosevelt said.

Now, even if the United States makes a mistake, that's right! Who made you sail in the Pacific Ocean? The United States, which has already occupied the New World, is now finally showing its sharp teeth.

"The island nation will definitely protest." Marshall said.

"If they want to protest, then we will pass a new resolution, such as a material embargo on the island nation, in order to protect our interests." Roosevelt said.

Until now, the trade between the United States and the island countries is quite frequent, and many of the raw materials that the island countries need are imported from the United States, such as the most important oil!

If supplies to the island nation are cut off, it will be an absolute fatal blow to the island nation.

Will this force the island countries to make a desperate bet?

The east is not bright and the west is bright, what the United States needs now is an excuse for war, and if the island countries really do something against the United States, then Roosevelt will have a good reason!

Those present may have guessed what Roosevelt thought, however, no one said it.

Just when a meeting was held overnight in the conference room of the oval table, an airwave flew from the embassy of the island country back to the island country of Tokyo.

After getting the news, the island country was immediately angry, and the island country's navy was even more angry, but some people in the island country's navy fell into excitement.

"This is our best chance! Our Plan Z finally has a chance to be implemented! An old devil said with great interest.
