Iron Germany

"Your Excellency, the German Empire just sent a note to your country and immediately returned the empire's colonies in the Pacific Ocean. At the same time, all the troops dispatched to Southeast Asia will be returned to your country. Otherwise, the empire's attacks will continue. At that time, Your country should be very clear about the consequences!" The German ambassador to Switzerland, Jacob, stood proudly in front of Yasuya Uchida, the island country's former ambassador to Germany, announcing the conditions of the German Empire.

Uchida Yasuya had a look of grief and indignation. He had already learned the news of the combined fleet's fiasco. Although such a result is difficult for him to accept, it is reasonable. As an ambassador to Germany, he knows how powerful the German navy is. Although the navy of the island country can rule the roost in the Far East, it is just that there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings. Once you encounter a powerful enemy like the German Navy, there is no way to be defeated.

"Your Excellency Jacob, your country's navy unscrupulously attacked our coastal cities and slaughtered those civilians. Is this something that soldiers can do? Is this something that a civilized country can do?" Uchida Yasuya looked sad and indignant.

As long as he thought that several island cities were destroyed by the German fleet, and countless island people died under German artillery fire, he would be very angry. If possible, Uchida Yasuya would like to kill this guy in front of him to avenge the death of the people of the island country. But he knew, if he did. Then, there will be endless wars waiting for the island country, and the island country will pay a heavier price for this.

"Your Excellency, you asked for all of this! The German Empire has warned you. Don't reach out for things that don't belong to you. However, your country seems to have ignored the warnings of the Empire. That's why this happened The result!" Jacob looked contemptuous. He didn't take Uchida Yasuya's accusation seriously at all.

"Aren't you afraid of the accusations of the international community? Although the German Empire is the most powerful country in the world, other countries will never watch the German Empire act recklessly!" Uchida Yasuya said.

"Really? Your Excellency, I would like to advise your country not to go against the empire. Because if you don't accept the conditions of the empire, you will pay a higher price for it!" Jacob said nonchalantly.

It is not unknown to other countries in the world what the German expeditionary fleet did in the island country. However, so far, no country has stood up to speak out for the island nation and blamed Germany. On the one hand, of course, it is fear of Germany's strength and fear of getting burned. On the other hand, in the eyes of mainstream countries, the island country is not considered a powerful country at all. It's no big deal to kill some islanders.

Jacob left immediately, leaving only Uchida Yasuya cursing constantly. ,

Uchida Yasuya left to report the request of the Germans to the country. He knew that the country had to make a choice as soon as possible. If it is delayed for a longer period of time, it may cause more losses. This is not a good thing for the island country.

Immediately after receiving the telegram from Uchida Yasuya, the foreign minister Kato Takaaki went to report to Prime Minister Shigenobu Okuma.

"Your Excellency, the Germans have once again warned us. If we don't return their colonies and withdraw from Southeast Asia, their attacks will continue!" Kato Takaaki said anxiously.

"Baga! Do the Germans still want to attack our coastal cities? They are not afraid of the accusations of the international community if they do this?" Okuma Shigenobu was very angry. Germany is a civilized country, how could it do such a thing. Even island countries often cover up when they do such things. But the Germans did it aboveboard, which is really despicable.

"Your Excellency, what should we do now? Shall we agree to the conditions of the Germans?" Kato Takaaki asked. He wished to accept the terms of the Germans. Although Southeast Asia is very important, the mainland of the empire is equally important! If the Germans really continue to attack, I don't know how many islanders will die under the guns of the Germans.

Okuma Shigenobu shook his head: "I can't decide this matter. The army will not agree. Let's go, let's go see Yamagata-sama!"

Perhaps this is the tragedy of the island prime minister! Although they are the highest heads of the cabinet on the surface, they must seek the consent of the elders when it comes to major matters related to the country's destiny. If the elders disagree, it cannot be implemented, and even, if the elders are willing, they can also replace the prime minister.

Kato Takaaki nodded in understanding.

The two arrived at Youpeng's mansion in Shan County by car, only to find out that Lu Xianggang Shizhisuke was also there.

"Prime Minister, Foreign Minister, please sit down." Shanxian Youpeng seemed very calm, as if he was not at all anxious about the current tense situation.

"Master Shan County! The Germans warned us again through diplomatic channels. They proposed that we return their colonies and withdraw from Southeast Asia at the same time. Otherwise, their attacks will continue. All the economic centers of the island countries are In the coastal area. Once those coastal cities are attacked by the German fleet, our country will be over." Okuma Shigenobu said.

"Yes, Mr. Shanxian. The previous German attack has destroyed three of our cities and caused tens of thousands of casualties. If the Germans continue to attack, it is unknown how many casualties will be caused." Kato Gao Ming also said.

Shanxian Youpeng's expression turned a little ugly. The richness of Southeast Asia made him unable to stop. If you give up at this time, you will undoubtedly waste all your previous efforts.

"Baga! Damn the Germans, they actually threatened us like this. The empire must not be threatened by them. Southeast Asia, we can't quit at all! There is a matter of the real rise of the empire!" Okashinosuke cursed.

The hearts of Okuma Shigenobu and Kato Takaaki couldn't help but start to sink. They knew very well that the words of Oka Ichinosuke represented the meaning of the army. As the leader of the army, Shanxian Youpeng will definitely respect the army's opinion.

"Southeast Asia is indeed very important to the empire. The empire finally seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and captured Southeast Asia. It would be a pity to give up because of this. If possible, we must do our best Guaranteed control of Southeast Asia. This will be crucial to the empire!" Shanxian Youpeng said. He also does not want to give up Southeast Asia.
