"No, no, our country has no intention of being an enemy of the British Empire, but colonies are about the status of a country, and what great power does not have colonies?"

Yang Chao raised a ridiculous question, but it was not ridiculous at all, because the newspapers were already hyped up, and the Chinese people were extremely interested in expanding their territory, even if it was just a few little-known islands in the Pacific.

The Germans were also hungry, and when they planned to open up the colonies, the valuable colonies were almost divided, and the Germans could only pick up some leftovers from the corners that others did not want, but even so, it caused a frenzy of countries to divide the world.

Germany operated colonies in Africa, Britain and France and other countries immediately stepped up the partition of Africa, Germany went to the Pacific Ocean, and the Americans nervously ran over to occupy some uninhabited islands.

In particular, some islands in the eastern Pacific are too close to the Americans, making it difficult for them to feel safe.

The Germans are now suppressed by the Entente, but the Chinese have stood up, are they going to take the guns in the hands of the Germans and continue to challenge the world?

"But the territories you intend to buy are already occupied by Japan and the British Empire, and this move will inevitably cause friction between your country and the British Empire."

The American minister sighed.

Yang Chao smiled: "No." The British Empire is rich all over the world, and there are only a few islands where birds don't. No, I'm wrong, it's an island with only birds pooping. But the British Empire certainly doesn't look down on it, they don't care about that little bit of guano. ”

The American minister shook his head: "No, no, the British Empire will never give up an inch of land." ”

Yang Chao said: "But where is not the territory of the British Empire." It is still legally Germany's. ”

The U.S. minister is very sure that Yang Chao wants to insert a vat horizontally, is this taking advantage of the fire to rob or to take advantage of the fire? Is he not afraid of setting himself on fire, or is he wishing for it to burn?

The American envoy did not achieve anything, and when he left, he found that the German ambassador was also entering the presidential palace, and the two passed by, just nodding briefly.

The American turned around and informed the British minister of what he had heard.

"Hmph, have the Germans degenerated to rely on the Chinese?"

Zhu Erdian was quite contemptuous, and he completely forgot that Britain had long since degenerated into relying on Japan.

"Prepare for war!"

Zhu Erdian's words made the American minister Reinsch extremely worried.

"The Chinese president said that China has no intention of joining the war."

Rui Enshi said.

Zhu Erdian snorted coldly: "When the Chinese set foot on the territory of the British Empire, it was when war broke out. ”

Then he said to Reinsch: "The British Empire wants the United States of America to be on the side of the British Empire and keep the peace in Asia and the Pacific!" ”

Rui Enshi shook his head: "China has a lot of interests in China, and we will definitely not join the dispute because of this." ”

Reinsch has decreed that the United States will remain neutral if the Chinese and the British rub against each other in the Pacific.

The reason for the United States to enter the war in Europe was only that the Germans engaged in unlimited submarine warfare, which harmed the interests of the United States and undermined the protection of neutral merchant ships under international law.

So they only declared war on Germany, but not on Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria, and they did not join the Anglo-French Entente, but only cooperated with Britain and France.

But it would be too reluctant for the Americans to send troops to fight with the British in the Pacific, because China's interests are on the one hand, and on the other hand, the Americans see no point in fighting with the Chinese for those islands, although China's occupation of those islands also poses some threat to the United States, but in general, where the British occupy, the threat is greater.

The most important thing is that the Americans feel that the war is not so easy, they now feel that they have been trapped in the European theater, the American GIs with poor combat experience are now suffering more than 100,000 casualties, the Germans are uneasy and kind, and it seems that they are specifically targeting the American soldiers, which makes the Americans hate it to the bone but have no choice but to continue to recruit soldiers from the country to send them to France, when it will be a head, the Americans do not know.

It can be said that the Americans have already regretted a little, they have suffered heavy casualties in only a few months after entering the war, and the most important thing is that they have not seen any signs of the end of the war at all, and it is not at all like the conglomerates at that time claimed that as long as the United States entered the war, Germany would surrender within three months.

Since the Americans have already fallen into a European war, they will absolutely not open up a second battlefield, and the Americans do not have as strong self-confidence as the American imperialists of later generations, and they can consider themselves a country with a weak army.

The Americans' statement made Zhu Erdian frown.

If the Americans did not help, where did the British Empire recruit soldiers?

The people of Australia and New Zealand have already joined too many armies, and the support of these two colonies for the British Empire is even more fanatical than their own country, New Zealand has a population of only one million, but it sent 100,000 troops to support the war, and together with Australia to form the Anzac Corps, although the military discipline and combat skills are not high, but the fighting enthusiasm is extremely high, and the casualty rate of the soldiers of these two countries is also the highest in the entire World War.

But both countries are sparsely populated countries, and after sending troops to Europe, the country is extremely empty, and if the Chinese are sent to their nearby German colonies, their own security cannot be guaranteed.

So the British knew they had no choice, as long as China dared to send troops to land, it would mean war.

Reinsch knows that the United States cannot influence the choice of Britain, the British are so brainless, always embarrassed by the second power, and they are always the first power, Asia is now obviously the strongest is China, after the war the British will definitely come back to confront the Chinese, the Americans can not mix with this muddy water.

When Reinsch walked out of the British Consulate, he suddenly found that there was already news flying outside, all of them outside the number.

"China buys German colonies, and the total area exceeds the three eastern provinces!"

Seeing the generous Chinese, Rui Enshi couldn't help but shake his head, these old continent countries are simply unreasonable.

However, Reinsch also bought a newspaper and saw a long list of names in the newspaper:

"Samoa, New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Caroline, Palau, Mariana Islands (excluding Guam), Marshall Islands and Nauru."

After reading the contents of the newspaper, from the above fanatical comments of the Chinese, Reinsch read about the inevitable war between China and Britain, and at the same time he also felt that the world was becoming more and more chaotic, as if there was a naughty child's hand, turning the blocks very chaotic and difficult to clean up.
