The current interest of the Americans is still in the Far East, otherwise, the Americans would not have launched the Spanish-American War, nor would they have put forward an open-door policy immediately after the war, and the idea of the Americans in this plane is still the same, but it is just the opposite of history, the Americans who were beaten down by the Japanese were made to lose their prestige, not to mention the loss of the Philippines, and Samoa was also lost! If any open-door policy is proposed at this time, will it not make the other powers laugh off their big teeth?

Even now Americans feel that Hawaii is likely to be lost, just imagine that there are 40% Japanese Americans in Hawaii, and Americans do not even have one-third of the Japanese, and it is difficult for local Americans to protect themselves without the intervention of foreign troops. Although it was equally difficult for the Japanese to capture it, as long as the Americans felt that it was not safe, then there was room for Germany to operate!

The first step in the prince's two-step strategy is to diplomatically support the United States so that Hawaii can at least maintain the status quo. What is the biggest advantage of the U.S. government in Hawaii? There is a puppet government, and as long as this puppet government is preserved, then at least it will not be difficult to maintain the status quo.

The second step of the strategy was divided into two parts, which was also implemented after the United States supported German action in Africa. If the actions of the Americans satisfied Germany, then in the event of the American annexation of Hawaii, Germany would also support it and was willing to open its colonies in the Far East to facilitate the American fleet and fleet.

The Americans will not abandon the Far East. Judging from the current diplomatic relations, it is impossible for Britain and Japan to provide temporary anchorage bases for the US Far East Fleet in the future, and it is difficult for the French to say. Russia itself has only two ports. Then the anchorage of the Germans in the Far East means a lot for the United States! There is a condition that is very tempting for the Americans, Prince Ruprecht does not believe that the Americans will not be tricked!

Truth be told, the only thing Germany paid in this exchange of benefits was to provide anchorages for temporary supplies for the US Far East Fleet. In addition to this, the Germans only paid lip service to the United States. Germany's support for the status quo on Hawaii would gain the world's moral acceptance. The Americans' support for Germany in Africa would have caused discontent among the European powers.

The exchange was good for both sides, as the Americans gained the basis to maintain a military presence in the Far East, although they took on more political pressure. The so-called cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and division is harmful to both sides, and at this time, cooperation between the United States and Germany can naturally be desirable. The first step in the matter was so simple that Wilhelm II could decide on his own without consulting the old king at all.

Of course, as for whether there will be some "supporters" to participate in the US counterinsurgency operation in Hawaii, that is a matter for the Kingdom of Bavaria and the Americans. Anyway, there was no half-penny relationship with the German government, and for this kind of deal, Wilhelm II was still very satisfied. Well. If there is a pot, others will help carry it.

Crown Prince William couldn't think of a reason to refuse, and the Americans couldn't think of a reason to refuse. Of course, it was not yet time to tell the Americans that Germany had ideas about the Portuguese colonies. It was only said that he was willing to open the German African colonies to the United States to a limited extent in exchange for the support of the United States in certain actions. Anyway, with the anchorage of the Far East as a hole card, the possibility of the Americans turning against the water is extremely low!

William II eventually acquiesced to Ruprecht's plan, and the Portuguese colonies in Africa were already on the crown prince's menu, and the prince intended to do it in the future, whether the Americans intended to help or not. As for the negotiations with the Americans, since it has not yet reached the time for a showdown, it is not good for the government to come forward, and it is enough to leave it to the Kingdom of Bavaria for private exchanges.

As for Bavaria's own petty actions, sending mercenaries or something to help the Americans suppress the rebellion? This matter is Ruprecht's own business, and it has nothing to do with the German government. And the prince got someone's tacit approval and went directly to the U.S. government, but what he didn't expect was that the Americans needed much more than just keeping Hawaii! They even pointed the finger of revenge directly at the British!

"Are you crazy?" When Roosevelt said that the United States intended to intervene in the British war against the Boers, Ruprecht suddenly realized that he did not know the person in front of him! That's a bit too bold, isn't it? The Boolean problem is simply a reverse scale on the British, who touches the British and who is endless! At that time, Wilhelm II only made the British blow up with a single telegram. (Of course, there is a need to divert domestic attention.) ）

And Roosevelt's plan was much more powerful than a telegram, and the two sides were simply incomparable! Because Roosevelt wanted to be directly involved in the war. The ferocity of his approach and the enormity of his hostility made the prince himself tremble. This is going to be completely torn apart!

"The U.S. government is also planning to get a mercenary army to help the Boers? As a result, I think you should be well aware that the risks involved are too great! "The prince felt something incredible! When it comes to organizing transnational mercenaries, the Americans must be old-timers, and the foreign guns team that participated in the strangulation of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in history were the mercenaries organized by the American Wall, with the largest scale reaching 5,000 people. And this time, the U.S. government intends to retaliate against the British for their support of Japan by forming a "mercenary army" to make trouble in South Africa.

"Your country has just experienced a defeat, and this time it happened." The prince was about to test the Americans' tone again, but was interrupted by Roosevelt.

"Any individual and nation that dares to challenge the United States of America will surely be retaliated against and attacked by the United States! And what about the British? What can they do with the United States? Roosevelt's face turned into a look of anger and contempt at the same time.

In the eyes of the Americans, the current Britain has offended the Americans severely! Not to mention the war in the Philippines, the mere fact that Britain persuaded Brazil to help Japan buy warships was enough to annoy the Americans. Not to mention that in the Battle of the Philippines, the British even sent naval personnel to help Japan fight. Although it is only to undertake some work in the field of wireless point communication, for the Americans, this is tantamount to a declaration of war!

It can be said that in this Philippine incident, the British have already offended the Americans to the point of their home, and all the diplomatic relations that can be destroyed between the two sides have been destroyed, and the Americans who have been released will naturally not suffer losses! And a big country that is out of the way will naturally not do some petty things, and if you want to do it, you have to let the British remember it for a lifetime!
