There is a saying that the city gate affects the fish in the pond, and now, Xu Jie finally deeply understands the meaning of this sentence! With Britain and France agreeing on the division of interests and a joint deal with Germany, the tremendous diplomatic moves of the two world powers have inevitably had a huge impact on the situation in the Far East.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Jie finally understood why Britain and France formed an alliance with Germany three years ahead of schedule. Among them, the credit of his own traverser is indispensable! The most direct point is that because of Xu Jie's intervention, the dreadnought, the maritime hegemon during World War I, appeared in advance. And this time, the country that took the lead in opening the trend of history was not Britain but China, and even Germany was a little ahead of the British in the choice of ship type, and with the appearance of dreadnoughts, the British huge former dreadnought fleet quickly depreciated! At the same time, it also gave the German Navy a chance to catch up with the British Navy, and in the face of this situation, the British took decisive action, choosing to reconcile with the French as soon as possible so that they could free up their hands to fight against Germany.

The other reason is related to the Huaxia Republic...... Because, in the eyes of the British, the Chinese Republic was no longer a little brother and a tool against the Russians. The power displayed by the Huaxia Republic has already made this old empire feel a little uneasy! The purpose of the British against the Russians was to prevent the Russians from encroaching on the sea power of the British Empire, and this purpose was not only aimed at the Russians, but against any powerful country with power and ideas. What is the purpose of the double power standard, is to ensure that even if the British are ranked second and third in the world at the same time to challenge the British Royal Navy, the British will still be able to win the war! …。

The sea power strategy of the British in World War 1 was completely right about things and not about people!. Whoever it is, as long as it hinders the sea power of the British Empire, then there is nothing to say. Just copy the guy. And now, the British suddenly found out if the Chinese navy defeated the Russian navy in the Far East. There really isn't a reliable force that can contain the Huaxia Navy! The fleet would sail across the vast seas stretching from Sakhalin in the north to the Dutch East Indies in the south to Hawaii in the east. The western Pacific will become an inland sea for the Chinese Navy. Singapore, the strongest base of the British Empire's hegemony in the Far East, will be directly exposed to the guns of the Chinese fleet.

The Huaxia Navy did not intend to directly clash with the British, and Xu Jie did not plan to form a strategic alliance with the Germans, although through his own intervention, Germany's naval and industrial strength in this plane had been greatly improved, the former because Germany adopted a more radical and advanced design. The capital ship formation no longer has the problem of insufficient firepower, and in terms of time, it has entered the era of dreadnoughts in advance. It's also more aggressive. As for the latter, it was because of the reciprocal trade with the Huaxia Republic, which was large and united, and absorbed a large amount of German industrial goods and munitions. This gave a more acute impetus to the ......... of industrial development in Germany.

But nevertheless. Xu Jie still has no intention of really joining forces with Germany, the reason is very simple, Britain and France have opened a hanging called "American imperialism" behind their backs! Simply British, French, Russian. Germany, Austria and Italy can be undefeated. But with the weight of US imperialism, the situation is not good for Germany and Austria, even if the current Germany is stronger than the Germany of the original plane!

But the British don't care about this, and the British people's sensitivity to sea power is definitely not something that mainland countries can imagine. It was enough for Britain to know that if the Chinese navy won a landslide victory in the decisive battle with the Russians, then British supremacy in the Far East would soon be lost! Huaxia is not Japan, the Republic of Huaxia has a population and land area far exceeding Japan, and once it is under the leadership of a unified and enlightened government, the power that erupts is definitely not comparable to that of the island country in the east. Now China has all the conditions needed to develop into a superpower, and China also has a strong will to expand its strategic frontiers. And this is what the British do not want to see! …。

Therefore, with Britain and France reaching a compromise on a series of issues, if the Republic of China was weakened while containing Russia, it was put on the agenda of the British, and the British were very familiar with the strategy of driving away the wolf, when they fought against Napoleon, it was Britain who gave money and guns behind their backs to let other countries deal with France, and now, the British plan to use this hand on China! ! …。

However, this was somewhat different from the situation when facing Napoleon, when the British needed to defeat the First French Empire once and for all! And now what the British need is that China and Russia will lose in this war, and they will no longer be able to compete for hegemony in the Far East. So that Britain can rest assured that it can focus on Europe to solve Germany's big problem. So it was decided that the British could not blatantly help the Russians...... At most, it is to do some tricks in terms of loans and arms to Huaxia. Slow down the pace of preparation and development of the Huaxia Republic!

But just the reduction in materials and funds has already had a considerable impact on the Huaxia Republic! At present, the Republic of China is vigorously developing industry and rebuilding the army, the funds and machinery and equipment needed are not at all what the country can provide, a large number of machinery and equipment need to be imported, and many projects need financial support, even if the Republic of China has just recovered the lost territory from the Northeast needs a lot of money to develop, what the British did is obviously equivalent to a certain extent contrary to the foundation of cooperation between the two countries, China sent troops to fight against Russia, and the British paid for equipment. For the sake of this money and industrial equipment, Huaxia did not just have to fight to the death with the Russians. And give some discounts to British products! …。

And now, what China's efforts are waiting for is the British's bottom of the kettle! "This is betrayal! It's a breach of contract! Xu Jie's roar resounded throughout the office. Although Xu Jie knew that no treaty would last forever, but in this situation where the two sides still had a basis for cooperation, the actions of the British were obviously beyond the limit of what Huaxia could endure! Xu Jie really didn't plan to do anything about British hegemony, and his plan for the Dutch East Indies would also take into account the feelings of the British and have a clear bottom line, but now, the British have considered keeping a hand on China less than 2 years after the end of the Sino-Russian War, which makes Xu Jie unacceptable.

The British's excuse for the loans and equipment that should have been disbursed on time has greatly affected the development of the Chinese Republic. In this regard, Xu Jie simply did not have time to send diplomats to England to conduct a marathon negotiation with the British, and he needed to quickly find countries and groups that could replace the British to fill the gap. In a short period of time, Xu Jie can also make up for the gap in funds through the turnover of the bank and the Jewish consortium behind Gaylin, and the shortage of various machinery and equipment can also be solved by importing from Italy and Germany. But this is not a long-term solution after all, and the gap between the power of those second-class powers and groups is too great compared to the British funds. This problem can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause! …。
