Before this war, there was no treaty in the world that could impose a mandatory tonnage ratio for the navies of various countries. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThis war that has affected the world has given the whole world an opportunity to end the arms race.

First of all, the most joyful was not Britain, but Japan, which was under pressure from the navy of the Ming Empire. Originally, Japan still had Liaodong and the Korean Peninsula as a buffer, but now everything no longer exists.

The Japanese navy has now become the last barrier to protect the security of its homeland, and if this barrier is erased by the Ming Empire, then Japan will be no different from a girl without clothes.

"Since it has been decided to let the Ming Empire retain its navy and standardize the number of navies, then this treaty should bring Japan and Ceylon." Sun Fang gave his own conditions, which seemed very fair and reasonable.

"The Ming Empire needs to protect the security of its own seas, but it must also face maritime threats from all directions...... Therefore, the Ming Empire has the right to require other countries in the nearby waters to maintain a corresponding scale in terms of naval scale. Even Japan agrees with what he said.

After all, there is no such strength in the-for-tat arms race with the Ming Empire, and neither Japan nor Ceylon seems to have such strength. Even the British, who supported them, could not completely suppress the Ming Empire in the Far East.

"Japan is willing to keep a navy of the same size as the Ming Empire, so that it can maintain regional stability." Jiro Yamaguchi hurriedly opened his mouth to strive for more space for the development of the Japanese Navy.

After all, compared to the Ming Imperial Navy, which suffered heavy losses in this war, the Japanese Navy actually did not lose any of its main warships in the war.

Conservative combat plans such as being cautious and sticking to the homeland, as well as Japan's new weapon submarines shining in the war, made the Japanese Navy have no sense of existence in this war.

Therefore, the new treaty is very beneficial to Japan, as long as it maintains the existing naval size and builds two new battleships, it can maintain a partial naval advantage over the Ming Empire.

The problem of Ceylon is much more complicated, because the Ceylon Navy has contributed to this naval battle and paid a considerable price.

In the Battle of Luzon, 6 battleships of the entire navy of Ceylon were sunk and 4 battleships were seriously damaged. Such huge losses greatly slowed down the recovery of Ceylon's naval strength.

In order to maintain the superiority of the Ceylon navy in the South China Sea, the treaty stipulated that Ceylon could retain more naval forces than the Ming Empire's navy.

In terms of overall tonnage, Ceylon and Germany maintained a level - both at a rate of six. That is, in terms of the number of new battleships, Ceylon could build 6 ships in the future, while the Ming Empire could only build 5 ships.

If you count the number of warships that the Ming Empire in the north was divided by Japan, Ceylon has at least twice the strength advantage of the Ming Empire in the South China Sea.

"Things can't just be settled...... Because this is, after all, a worldwide naval clause. Sun Fang looked at the British envoy Brown, and finally showed the fangs of the attack.

If you want to limit the size of the navy of the Ming Empire and not pull all countries on their backs, how can this Sun Fang or His Majesty Emperor Zhu Mu be willing.

As the mouthpiece of the Ming Empire, Sun Fangtu was exhausted, and opened his mouth to give a sharp counterattack: "I think the most important thing to do now is to adjourn the meeting, and wait for the arrival of representatives from other countries......

"What are you kidding? What other country needs us to wait? When British envoy Brown heard Sun Fang's remarks, his face turned ugly.

Because when Sun Fang talked about waiting for other countries, he had a bad premonition in his heart - it seemed that this time there was a spoiler.

"You see, the envoy of Muscovy has not yet arrived, and His Majesty Vladimir must also want to build a navy that suits his interests...... Of course, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire did not determine the size of their own countries...... "Sun Fang counted the number of countries one after another."

When he paused, a voice suddenly outside the door took over with a smile: "Of course, there is also us in the United States!" ”

When the American envoy walked into the entire venue in fluent Chinese, the British envoy Brown's face became very exciting.

To be honest, one of the main reasons why Britain was in a hurry to sign a treaty with the Ming Empire was that it did not want the United States to follow in this matter.

Once the United States, a country that is competing with Britain for two oceans, joins the Naval Development Scale Treaty, the treaty will change its flavor.

"Now that the U.S. envoy has arrived, this treaty also needs the U.S. to participate in order to truly bring peace to the world, right?" Sun Fang glanced at Brown, who was heavy-faced, and said slowly.

I didn't expect the Ming Empire to pull the United States over at such a time, so Brown seemed a little caught off guard.

So he barely squeezed out a smile and proposed to Sun Fang: "I'm a little unwell today, so let's go to this place first...... As for the rest of the matter, it will be a long time to come! ”

Now that the American envoy has arrived in Gyeonggi of the Ming Empire, it is obviously impossible to get rid of the United States, and in this case, Britain and other countries must also think of some ways and formulate some countermeasures.

The American envoy Jack did not stop him, but shook hands with Sun Fang with a smile, and together they sent the British envoy Brown out of the conference room. With this main negotiator gone, there is no need for the remaining countries to continue to entangle.

Soon, therefore, the German envoys and the Austro-Crarian envoys all got up and took their leave, and as soon as the American envoy arrived, the whole meeting was directly ended.

"Mr. Jack, how much benefit do you want to get from the British this time?" As the saying goes, no profit can not be early, the American envoy hurriedly crossed the Pacific Ocean to the capital of the Ming Empire, Sun Fangcai did not believe that he was here to help the Ming Empire.

And the Ming Empire's envoys to the United States were only a relationship: Sun Fang hoped that the Americans would disrupt the British deployment and threaten the heart of the British-dominated system.

"The United States is a two-ocean country...... "American envoy Jack thought for a moment and said a vague bottom line: "The construction of the navy has always been the top priority...... We hope to maintain the second largest naval fleet in the world, this is our bottom line! ”

2nd ...... in the world Sun Fang weighed it slightly in his heart, and knew that the United States was planning to have a ratio of more than 10. This is definitely a very big challenge for the British Royal Navy.
