Chapter 73: Bait II

() Yes, it is peace talks. In fact, the Japanese government had long wanted to have peace talks with Taiwan at that time. However, as a once-rising great Japanese empire, neither the Prime Minister nor the ministers had the face or courage to propose this.

suggestion.

Since Japan and Taiwan have been in a state of war for a long time, the two countries have no exchanges. In addition, the United States, Britain, France and other countries have successively abandoned this chess piece in the Far East, so Japan has never been able to find a chance to contact Taiwan's government.

fu, but in recent years, Taiwan has developed so fast that it has made the great powers frightened. They no longer regard Taiwan as a regional balancing chess piece, but gradually discovered that Taiwan has a tendency to undermine their layout.

As a result, these great powers began to alienate Taiwan and used various covert methods to contain Taiwan's development.

This time, Taiwan snatched away the huge Indochina from the French and leased the island of Mindanao. The territory suddenly expanded many times, and the population was very sufficient. In addition, the armed force foundation of the South China Sea Federation, if it were not for

The Germans started this war, and I am afraid that the major powers will unite to attack the South China Sea Federation.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the establishment of the South China Sea Federation, the major powers did not admit the new country first. On the one hand, they were taking care of the face of their old friends, the French. On the other hand, they planned to take this opportunity to hammer on the South China Sea Federation to see if they could

We cannot slow down its development.

This time, the American consul showed up at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with Japan in person, which showed the attitude of the Americans. He actually brought an official from a belligerent country into the territory of the other side without notifying the other side in advance.

According to international etiquette, this was considered a slap in the face. However, after Liu Fu received this slap, he gritted his teeth and pretended not to feel anything. He did not mention Japan's personal affairs at all. He just instructed the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to proceed as planned in advance.

Step by step, he met with representatives from various countries, listened to their quotations and exchange conditions for submarines, and then reported them to himself one by one.

After several days of work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, a quotation list from various countries was presented on Liu Fu's desk. Among the 6 countries participating this time, only 4 countries quoted prices. The unit price offered by Liu Fu was the highest, with a unit price of

They paid 500,000 pounds, which is equivalent to more than 1.5 million gull dollars, which is almost the same as the price of the first half of the battleships. However, they purchased the smallest quantity and only required the purchase of 2 ships;

The Germans quoted a moderate price, quoting 600,000 marks, which is almost equivalent to 350,000 pounds, and they purchased the largest quantity, requiring all 50 ships;

The British offer the lowest price, only 150,000 pounds, and only one ship. It is not difficult to see from the quotation that the British fully believe in their shipbuilding capabilities and are very proud;

The last person to make an offer was the Americans. They are indeed a merchant country. This fully reflects the fact that the Americans did not intend to buy submarines. Instead, they planned to pay a lump sum of US$12 million to purchase the submarine technology of the South China Sea Federation, or to cooperate with them.

The South China Sea Federation jointly funded the establishment of a submarine research institute to specialize in submarine technology;

After reading these quotations, it can be seen that the Germans are most anxious to get these submarines because they are blocked by the British at sea; and the Japanese are also very anxious, but they have the same idea as the British, which is

They plan to buy the submarine back and imitate it; but the Americans are the most cunning. They don’t want submarines, but technology, and they also want the latest technology.

In fact, Liu Fu had no intention of selling submarines, but when things came to pass, he could only use selling submarines as a cover to achieve his goals.

Two days later, during a conversation with the German consul, officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs revealed intentionally or unintentionally that although the German offer was a bit low, if Germany could be the first to recognize the South China Sea Federation, then in future cooperation, the South China Sea Federation would be the

I will never forget the friendship of my German friends.

After hearing this, the German consul immediately sent a telegram to the country. Soon after, he also received a reply from the country: As long as the South China Sea Federation can sell a sufficient number of submarines to Germany and agree to help the German Navy train enough submarine sailors,

Then the German government will immediately recognize the South China Sea Federation, and the exact credentials will be delivered to the consul of the South China Sea Federation in Germany after the transaction is completed.

However, this secret was quickly learned by the consuls of other countries. As a result, the consuls of various countries, especially the Allied Powers, protested and threatened that if the South China Sea Federation sold submarines to the Germans, it would violate the neutrality treaty.

Diplomats from the South China Sea Federation pointed out that in view of the friendly gesture made by Germany, as the first country to recognize the international status of the South China Sea Federation, the South China Sea Federation will definitely make a friendly response.

Finally, the British and Americans came forward to set the final tone, that is, submarines are an offensive weapon, and the South China Sea Federation, as a neutral country, cannot sell such offensive weapons to any country in the Allies or Alliance.

, but as compensation for strictly abiding by the Neutral Powers Treaty, the Allied Powers and the United States are willing to recognize the legal status of the South China Sea Federation in the international arena;

The Germans were busy for a long time, but in the end the British and Americans disrupted the situation. They were very angry. However, in order to prevent the South China Sea Federation from being won over by the Allies, they could only agree to recognize the international legal status of the South China Sea Federation on behalf of the Allies.

.

In the end, after struggling for a long time, not a single submarine could be sold, but the problem of the international status of the South China Sea Federation was solved. Although all countries have realized that the South China Sea Federation is playing tricks, but at this juncture, it is not easy to be fooled.

You have to endure it, after all, you can't add any strength to the enemy.

After dealing with the issue of the international status of the South China Sea Federation, the Americans approached the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the South China Sea Federation and proposed that the Americans, the United States, Japan, and South China Sea sit down to discuss the protracted war between the South China Sea Federation and Japan.

.

This time Liu Fu did not give the Americans face anymore, but asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to directly reply that unless the Japanese withdraw from China's Liaodong and Ryukyu Islands, this war will continue forever.

The Americans took a look at it and thought, this is national hatred, and we don't have to join in and join in. Although it is a bit shameful, we will make do with it and not mention it again.

Regarding the Japanese issue, Liu Fu thought very clearly. This country has a very strong sense of national pride, and it is a single-ethnic country, so once it is turned over, the South China Sea Federation will add a powerful one to the east.

When the enemy is not completely sure of controlling it,

Liu Fu has no intention of relaxing his vigilance against it. Although blockading the enemy will consume precious fuel and the life of the submarine, as long as the South China Sea Federation can afford the military expenditure, it must ensure that it continues to blockade the island country until Liu Fu takes action.

Come on, go back and clean up this time bomb around you.
