"Your Excellency Secretary of State, British Empire will not surrender to the Germany people. We will persist. Even if the mainland is completely occupied by the Germany people, we will not give up resistance." Sir Edward Gray said.
United States Secretary of State Bryan immediately frowned, and he heard the underlying meaning of Edward? Sir Gray. That is, even if British mainland falls, they will not give up hope and will continue to fight.
"Sir, what do you mean?" Bryan asked.
"Your Excellency Secretary of State, we plan to retreat to Canada once British mainland falls, and then continue to resist the Germany people!" Edward Sir Gray said directly.
"What? Your government is moving to Canada?" Bryan exclaimed. Obviously, he did not expect Britain people to have such great determination. In addition, this is not a good thing for United States.
"Yes, Your Excellency. We will continue to resist." Edward Sir Gray said.
"But, in that case, the flames of war will burn to Americas." Bryan's expression became a little serious.
"Once the Germany people occupy British Empire's homeland, they may not have much power to attack Canada. Therefore, we should be safe." Edward Sir Gray said.
"Once the Germany people finish digesting the occupied area, they will definitely attack Canada. Of course, this time may be a few years, or even longer. But Germany The people are attacking Canada, and no one can stop it! By then, the war will be burning on American continent," Bryan said.
"Your Excellency, when the time comes we will fight tooth and nail to resist the Germany people."
"Hmph! Can you resist the Germany people? Canada only has a few million people, and can only have an army of hundreds of thousands of people armed at most. The Germany people can crush you easily."
"Your Excellency Secretary of State, I think United States won't sit idly by then, right? After all, once Germany captures Canada, their next target will definitely be United States. There will be no doubt about it!"
"Sir Sir, are you deliberately trying to draw the war to United States, and then use United States's power to attack Vengeance?" Bryan's face became very ugly.
"Of course not. Your Excellency, Secretary of State, you should know very well that after the Germans defeat us, no matter what, the United States will become the next target of the Germans. The United States is too huge. Not only does it have a vast land area, a large population, but also a very developed economy. Coupled with the barrier between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the security of the United States can be guaranteed. Therefore, the United States already has the basic conditions to become a world hegemon. And the Germans defeated Great Britain. The empire has just become the new world hegemon. Will they be willing to see their hegemony threatened by the United States? Therefore, once the Germans calm down, they will definitely suppress the United States, including military strikes. The British Empire has been the world's hegemon for hundreds of years. It's just a pity that we failed to deal with the Germans this time, but were about to be defeated by them."
The expression on Bryan's face keeps changing. United States will become Germany's next target. Of course he knows this very well. This is also the consensus of US government. Therefore, US government will do their best to develop military power so that they can withstand the attacks of the Germany people in future wars. Of course, it would be great if we could defeat the Germany people and replace Germany as the new world overlord.
However, it is undoubtedly very difficult to defeat Germany, who is at the top of his game. At least judging from United States's current strength, they don't have the slightest chance. This is also what makes US government feel uneasy.
"Your Excellency Secretary of State, if British Empire cannot defend its homeland, it will have no choice but to move to Canada. At that time, our two countries can work together. We both have a common enemy, so our two countries should unite. This is what we should do. United States has strong industrial strength, but in terms of cutting-edge technology, it is still inferior to the British Empire undoubtedly has a great advantage in this regard. If we can complement each other's strengths, United States's strength will definitely reach a higher level. You will have greater confidence in resisting the attack of Germany, and even defeating them! "Edward Sir Gray continued.
"Sir, I have to admit that your words are too tempting. I will report to the President. However, I cannot guarantee that the President will agree." Bryan said.
Hearing Bryan say this, Edward? Sir Gray finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that Americans would definitely agree.
"Your Excellency Secretary of State, I believe that the President is a very wise man. He must know what kind of choice is most beneficial to United States of America!" Edward Sir Gray said.
After the meeting, Bryan immediately rushed to White House and reported the matter to Woodrow President Wilson.
After listening to Bryan's report, Woodrow President Wilson's brows suddenly knitted together tightly.
"Are the Britain people trying to drag us into the water? Since the outbreak of this war, they have been thinking about pulling us into their camp. However, the Britain people are right. Although we have avoided this war, Yes, we have also become the next target of the Germany people. So, we know that the Britain people have bad intentions, but we don't have much choice anymore," said Woodrow President Wilson.
"Your Excellency, do you mean that we have to agree to the Britain people?" Bryan asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency Secretary of State. Regardless of whether British government moves to Canada, we will become the next attack target of the Germany people. Therefore, the only thing we can do is to strengthen ourselves as much as possible before the Germany people launch an attack.. Only in this way can we have enough power to deal with the Germany people. Although Britain has declined, many of the technologies they have are what we need. This time, we just take this opportunity to let the Britain people transfer those technologies to us!" said Woodrow President Wilson.
Secretary of State Bryan nodded, he knew that Woodrow President Wilson's decision was the right one. Since there is no way to avoid the next war between United States and Germany. Then, it is only right to do everything you can to make yourself stronger.
