Edward Henry Stanley had already spoken to this extent. If Benjamin, the Prime Minister of the British Empire, could not understand it anymore, then his job as Prime Minister of the Empire would be almost over!
"That's true. Now we need to be the United States even more..."
Benjamin nodded and said.
"We should support the United States and support the United States' expansion into Mexico. Even if the United States occupies Mexico, there will be no problem. At least it is better than it being in the hands of Ming Dynasty. When the United States expands to Mexico, then the Americans will become our support.
To prevent the Ming Empire and the Ming Dynasty from investing their power in other battlefields fighting for world hegemony! The power of our four-nation alliance has also undergone a fundamental change!"
"That's right!"
Edward smiled coldly,
"This is why, I would say, the United States is our natural ally and our most worthy ally... In any case, America is far away from the British mainland. It is impossible for us to send a fleet to the Americas to fight against the Ming Dynasty, especially
It is under the threat of France, Russia and Austria-Hungary, but we can support the United States and use the contradiction between the United States and Ming Dynasty to make the Americans the main force to prevent the expansion of Ming Dynasty, and the United States also has this intention, at least they know it
Are aware of the threat from the Ming Dynasty!"
Edward's words made Benjamin nod with deep understanding:
"Indeed, the United States is constantly expanding their navy. If the United States' navy is comparable in size to the Ming Dynasty, then the Ming Dynasty's navy may join the Imperial Alliance Fleet!"
"Yes"
Admiral Milne, the Lord of the Admiralty, who had remained silent, also agreed:
"Yes, according to the naval expansion plan formulated by the United States, they will build 16 to 20 battleships in the next ten years, which is basically equivalent to the battleships of the Ming Empire... If we can induce the United States to expand to Mexico,
Then, in order to protect Mexico, the Ming Dynasty will definitely send their fleet, which makes it impossible for their naval power to be invested in Europe, and the Royal Navy can completely defeat the French Navy..."
The British Empire's confidence has always been the Royal Navy, which is why other countries dare not challenge it... However, under the operation of Emperor Zhu Da, the fleets of France, Ming Dynasty, Russia and Austria-Hungary were caged together.
Directly scare the British!
There is no way, strength is supreme in this world!
Of course, the Royal Navy has also considered that the four empires may not directly join forces, but the question is who dares to take the risk?
Especially if you have a big family and a big business, you don't dare to take risks! After all, those who wear shoes are really afraid of those who are barefoot. If they lose, they will have nothing.
Therefore, now Britain is also eager to have their "Allied Navy." Especially for Admiral Milne, the Admiralty Minister, he can't wait to directly pull Germany, the United States, and Italy to sell them the best warships.
, and then everyone joins forces to deal with the "Four Emperors Alliance".
Now, with the participation of the United States, General Milne, who was originally a little weak, immediately became confident.
"There are also Germany and Italy. No matter what, we must win them over!"
Admiral Milne is not a diplomat, but he is a soldier. He can settle accounts. Britain will definitely not be able to win those four countries by relying solely on itself.
"Yes, especially Germany! Compared to Italy, Germany is more powerful. The reason why Bismarck has an ambiguous attitude is ultimately because we are basically fighting alone."
When mentioning Bismarck, Edward sneered.
"So he is worried that we are not the opponent of the "Four Emperors Alliance". However, as the United States on the other side of the ocean joins the alliance and becomes an ally of the United Kingdom, the balance of power has fundamentally changed! Coupled with Italy, our power is against
The four countries have already formed initial advantages. The addition of Germany will give us comprehensive advantages in terms of national strength and maritime power. This is an all-round advantage!"
All-around advantages!
Isn't this the reason why Britain cannot be confident when facing the "Four Emperors Alliance"? It is because the "Four Emperors Alliance" now has all-round advantages over Britain. And through
With the alliance, the British Empire regained this advantage.
"But, this matter is not easy!"
Benjamin said with a serious face:
"Even if we only consider it from a diplomatic perspective, the United States does need us more, but we must also see that we are not that friendly with the United States, and many Americans are also hostile to the United Kingdom. After all,
"The land of the United States was separated from the British Empire. Under such circumstances, how could the U.S. Congress pass a bill to form an alliance with the British Empire?"
This is the most realistic problem.
The fact that the United States is hostile to the Ming Dynasty does not mean that the United States is very friendly to Great Britain. In fact, many American politicians have always been wary of Britain. In their view, Britain is the biggest threat to the United States, and even
They have been worried that one day Britain will invade the United States.
You know, the White House...it was only painted white after the British Fire.
In this case, an alliance with Britain...is it possible?
Edward followed the Prime Minister's words and continued:
"So we should try every means to make Americans realize the threat of Ming Dynasty and make them believe that Ming Dynasty's threat to the United States is imminent. As for Britain? There may have been some unhappiness between us, but that is all in the past, at least
We are all of the same race, we are all Anglo-Saxons, and what about Ming Dynasty? They are all Asians, yellow people..."
Once again, Edward mentioned race, which was of course his inner thoughts. In his view, the rise of the Ming Dynasty was the greatest threat to white people and European civilization.
"Judging from the current situation, this is entirely possible! After all, the hostility to Ming Dynasty is the deepest in the United States, and many American politicians also regard Mexico as a threat, and even many American people are fighting
Willingness! We can strengthen this propaganda through the American press and make Americans believe that Ming Dynasty is the biggest threat to the United States."
Benjamin nodded slightly.
"Indeed, we can really work hard in this area. After all, ordinary people are the easiest to be fooled!"
"Yes, they have no consciousness of their own at all. Their understanding of the world is easily affected by news and newspapers. All we need to do is to fund some anti-Ming journalists and newspapers in the United States, and in newspapers
It may even take just a few months for those American hillbillies to regard Ming as the biggest threat to the United States after publishing anti-Ming news.”
Prime Minister Benjamin nodded and said:
"Okay, let's do it! We must use American blood to safeguard the fundamental interests of the British Empire. The sacrifices of Americans are valuable! They once betrayed the British Empire, but now, their blood will
Make up for all this!"
Look...this is true love!
It’s the British Empire’s true love for America…
"Is there a suitable candidate? Edward?"
Benjamin asked.
"Of course, Prime Minister, I have already selected several suitable candidates!"
