"Your Excellency, good morning!" William? Jennings? Brian had a smile on his face. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Although, the United States also hopes to one day become a world hegemon. However, judging by the current situation, the United States is still a long way from world hegemon. And the German Empire, it seems, is only one step away from being the hegemon of the world. Therefore, even if he was faced with nothing more than an ambassador of the German Empire, Secretary of State Bryan did not dare to put on a show.

"Hello, Your Excellency. Sorry to bother you early in the morning! Ambassador Glass said coldly. Although he said sorry. However, there was no apology on his face.

"Your Excellency, it's all for business, I can understand that. I wonder what happened when Your Excellency the Ambassador met me this time? Brian asked. Ambassador Glass's attitude made him even more worried, and the other party seemed to be a bad person!

"Your Excellency, on behalf of the German Empire, I formally express my protest to your country. Your country's transport of weapons and war materiel to Britain and France in violation of the Neutrality Act has caused serious damage to the interests of the German Reich. The Empire could not tolerate this to continue. Therefore, the Empire demands that the United States from now on stop transporting weapons and equipment and war materiel to Britain and France, so as not to spoil relations between our two countries! Ambassador Glass said.

Secretary Brian's face suddenly became a little unpleasant. The United States is transporting supplies to the Entente countries, and as the secretary of state, he is naturally clear. Even, that was simply the strategy formulated by the US cabinet, with the help of Britain and France and other countries to weaken Germany's power, and prepare for the future struggle between the United States and Germany for world hegemony.

It's just that the Germans have always turned a blind eye to this before. Unexpectedly, now the Germans have actually made this public directly. Obviously, after the victory on the Eastern Front, Germany began to grow in self-confidence and no longer feared that the United States would fall to the side of the Entente.

"Damn, it looks like the balance has been broken. The Germans, believing that they had won the game, did not take us seriously at all. Secretary Brian figured it all out at once. However, this is obviously not good news for the United States.

"Your Excellency, I think there must be some misunderstanding in this. The United States has always been strictly neutral. We have absolutely not done anything in violation of the Neutrality Act. Brian flatly denied Ambassador Glass's allegations.

Of course, such a thing cannot be admitted. If admitted, this will not only have a great impact on the reputation of the United States, but will also make relations between the United States and Germany immediately hostile. Although, the Americans have been trying to find a way to stumble on Germany. But if they were to stand up to Germany in a bright and open manner, they would not dare. At least, now they don't dare, not ready.

"Your Excellency, if it is a misunderstanding, it is for the best. However, the German Reich would not tolerate a misunderstanding becoming a reality. We'll take action accordingly. But if it turns out that it is not a misunderstanding, but a reality, when the time comes, everyone's faces will not look good. Glass reminded.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured that the United States will strictly abide by the neutrality law. We have always regarded Germany as our friend, and we will never let the relationship between our two countries be damaged. Secretary Bryan said.

After a few polite remarks without any nutrition, Ambassador Glass took his leave.

When the office door closed, Secretary Brian's face suddenly became very ugly.

"Damn the Germans, do they think they have won the war and become world hegemons?" Secretary Bryan yelled.

After venting his anger, Brian called the secretary in.

"Pack up, then get the car ready, I'm going to the White House. At the same time, the other cabinet ministers who are still in Washington were told to go to the White House. Brian commanded.

"Yes, Your Excellency." The secretary nodded and immediately went out to make arrangements.

Ten minutes later, Secretary Bryan got in his car and headed to the White House. At the same time, other cabinet ministers also rushed to the White House by car. They all know that something important is happening.

Half an hour later, U.S. President Woodlin? Wilson, Secretary of State William? Jennings? Brian and a number of cabinet ministers gathered in the White House conference room. Cigar after cigar was smoked, and the room soon became smoky.

"Your Excellency, what the hell is going on?" Woodrow? President Wilson asked, and he hadn't figured out what was going on.

"Your Excellency, Ministers. The Germans already knew about our covert support for Britain and France. Brian said.

"Didn't they already know about it?" Vice President Marshall was a little surprised. It can be said that with the capabilities of Germany's intelligence agencies, it is almost impossible for the United States to completely conceal it.

Woodlin? President Wilson frowned.

"Yes, the Germans did know it early on. However, they had been pretending not to know. But now the problem is that the German ambassador to the United States has officially warned us that we must no longer supply weapons and war materials to the Entente. Otherwise, they'll take action! It can be seen that the attitude of the Germans has changed radically. Brian said. 、

"What? How dare the Germans warn us? Don't they know that by doing so, they are likely to force us into the Entente? In that case, it won't do them any good. Treasury Secretary McAdoo exclaimed.

You must know that it has only been half a year since the outbreak of the war, but the United States has already accelerated the development of the US economy because of the sale of all kinds of war materials to the Allied countries. If this is affected, it will have a serious adverse impact on the US economy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that this time, we have to face a difficult choice once again. The Germans, who have already made a showdown with us, do not want us to make any more small moves in private. So, what do we do? "Woodrow? Wilson sighed. If he could, he certainly hoped that the war would continue and that the longer it would last, the better. In this way, the United States will be able to reap enough benefits from this. When the Old Continent is completely destroyed, the United States will be able to seize the opportunity to seize the leadership of the world.
