William II was very irritable at this time. With the stalemate in the war, the army, which had high self-esteem before the war, failed to quickly complete its strategic goals.

Now that France was not completely defeated, Germany and the Allies began a long stalemate on the Western Front.

Under such a stalemate, William II has begun to doubt whether the war can be won. [

But in any case, for Germany, there are reasons for this war to continue, and the same is true for the Allied Powers.

Both parties feel that they have reasons to stick to it, and they have reasons that are strong enough.

The war will continue!

Just then, the Foreign Secretary sent a letter to Wilhelm II.

That is a letter from the Far East!

The boy from the Far East in the eyes of William II in the past has made China rise rapidly in just a few years and has gained an absolute right to speak.

It was the letter from the boy.

William II opened the envelope, took out the letter paper and looked at it.

"Dear German Emperor, I know that the empire is facing enormous war pressure. You have always been a wise and wise elder in my heart. It is under the guidance of Germany that China has initially become a military power. Although I personally want to give more help to the empire, China does have reasons why it cannot participate in this war. Although China has initially risen, the Sino-Japanese war has hollowed out its national strength. Although China has [-] million people , but most of them are still in a very poor state, and we have not even fully digested the previous land, how can we have the ability to occupy new land? And in the eyes of everyone, this is just a European war, although I have controlled a lot of discourse power, but I also try to change public consciousness. However, I still hope to do my best to help the German Empire win this war while ensuring the interests of the people.”

William II couldn't help but nodded when he saw this. This is indeed a strong reason. Although China has won the foreign war, it is conceivable that China must have paid a relatively high price for this. In such a situation, although a war can be launched, it will inevitably cause huge trauma to the country.

And this war is indeed a war among Europeans.

If a country like China does not want to participate in the war, neither side of the war dares to threaten and persecute it like other small countries.

It can only be purely drawn.

Let's see who gives higher chips and whose conditions are more attractive.

Looking down, Jiang Yu continued to say in the letter: "For this reason, I asked the Chinese government to come up with a lot of military technology reserves. I hope that the allies can use these advanced military technologies to win the war while ensuring national interests." China restricts the export of advanced military equipment when exporting combat materials to the Allied countries. No matter how far the war goes, it is impossible for China to fall to the Allied countries. However, what worries me is that the United States is rising rapidly and has already offered to the Allies. Tendency to go to war."

"Although the United States seems to have no intention of participating in the war on the surface, it is actually only temporary. As we all know, there are three major consortiums in the world, namely the Rothschild Consortium, the Junker Consortium of Germany, and the Morgan and Rockefeller Consortia of the United States. The "American International Consortium" represented by the consortium, although the American consortium has not yet expanded outwards, let's call it that for now! The war between the Allied Powers and the Allies can be regarded as the Allied Powers represented by the Rothschild Consortium, and the Juncker Consortium. The war between the Juncker consortium represented by the consortium. However, if the war between the two sides is so stalemate, it may not be a war that can be ended in a period of time. If the United States has been exporting to the Allies, then the American consortium will inevitably develop rapidly. It is trying to get rid of the control of the Rothschild consortium."

"As the war continues, the strength of the American consortium will inevitably rise rapidly. At the same time, they will also borrow from the Allied Powers to ensure that they can further get rid of the control of the Rothschild Consortium. But to make the Allied Powers repay the United States, they must let The Allies were defeated. At the same time, the American consortium is a consortium that pays great attention to capital circulation. If the Allies win the war, their capital will not even be able to circulate throughout Europe. When a Rothschild consortium falls, a powerful one will emerge The Juncker Consortium. Therefore, the United States at this time is like a referee, a black whistle that may enter the battle at any time. When the war progresses to a certain extent, the United States will inevitably participate in the war. At that time, they will form a huge industry because of their exports to Europe production capacity, will bring countless artillery and many troops, and crush the Allies who are in a stalemate."

William II couldn't help but nodded again when he saw this. The logic of this decision was very reliable, and it was also what he had been most worried about all along. He just took chances and was unwilling to pay attention to it.

"Instead of this, it is better to launch a limited submarine warfare in the Atlantic Ocean immediately. Britain is an island country. As long as their sea transportation is cut off, the war cannot continue. This will enable the Allies to quickly defeat the Entente. As for the United States, it will take Don't bother, once the restriction of submarine warfare is adopted, the United States will fall into a huge conflict of whether to participate in the war, because at this time the United States has not earned enough money, and once it participates in the war, the United States will inevitably fall into the war. If the allies The war has been carried out according to the rhythm that the United States wants, and the United States will inevitably declare war on the allies without hesitation after it has achieved certain development. Only by changing the rhythm of the war can it win the initiative.” [

"And China can continue to manufacture more and more advanced submarines for Germany. And China is about to occupy the Arabian Peninsula, and then it can export advanced army equipment to the Ottoman Empire and ship it to Germany from the Ottoman Empire. But again, For the sake of the interests of the Chinese nation, I hope that German submarines will not attack merchant ships transporting Chinese goods, because those merchant ships do not have any military supplies that can pose a huge threat to the allies. And even if the United States participates in the war, when the war continues to a certain extent, China will definitely not It will sit idly by and will inevitably strengthen its assistance to the Allies."

After reading the letter, William II couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

At this moment, the high-level German navy asked for an audience, and Wilhelm II summoned him immediately. The high-level German navy handed over the "Wolf Pack Tactics" written by Jiang Yu to Wilhelm II.

After reading this "Wolf Pack Tactics", William II couldn't help being even more surprised by the developing China. China has formed such a mature submarine tactics.

At this time, the imperial submarines hardly had too many tactics, and they were basically single-handedly dispatched. Among the Allied merchant ships sunk by Germany in World War I, 60 were contributed by more than 30 ace captains, and hundreds of other submarines Submarines only contributed 44 records.

It was not until World War II that Germany developed wolf pack tactics.

William II looked at this "Wolf Pack Tactics" excitedly, and squeezed his fingers tightly, as if he had grasped a "magic weapon" to win.

"Your Majesty, Jiang also said that the navy's codes may have been seized by the British, and the codes should be replaced."

"Then change it! Immediately let the submarine force form a squad mode immediately, and we must popularize this tactic as quickly as possible." At this time, William II was very excited. After reading it, he immediately ordered the submarine force to implement this tactic. .

At this time, the German submarines generally can only look at the sea and sigh when facing the escorted fleet, but if they adopt the wolf pack tactics, what will happen even if they have escorts?Still able to sink them.

"Then restrict submarine warfare?"

"Let's start! Don't pay attention to the feelings of the Americans anymore. The empire must play its own rhythm and must not let the Americans lead by the nose." William II said ambitiously: "And the British can block sea traffic, the German Empire Same goes for it."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

……

Atlantic!

A British merchant ship acting alone was sailing on the sea with great peace of mind.

"It's such a rare and good day. Now there is no damn German submarine. Look at how bright the sun is and how soft the sea breeze is." The British captain with a black beard stood comfortably on the deck smoking a pipe , said very happily.

"Yes! The German submarine has not been dispatched for half a month." The first officer on the side also had a relaxed expression on his face, "Finally, I don't have to worry about going to sea, but I don't know how long this good life will last. "

There was still a touch of worry in the chief mate's words. Facts proved that the German submarines were not destroyed. Who knows what these submarines are doing in hiding!

"Don't worry, the Royal Navy of the British Empire is the enemy." The captain waved his fist excitedly.

"I hope!" the first mate said while thinking in his heart: "If the battleship can hit the submarine, there would be no need to be so worried."

The chief mate's thinking was surprisingly similar to that of the British cabinet at this time, and he was suspicious all day long, wondering what tricks the Germans were going to play again. [

It has been half a month in a row that there has been no report of a German submarine attacking a merchant ship. Obviously, the British cabinet will not think that this is because Germany gave up submarine warfare because of humanitarian reasons.

In fact, there is no such thing as humanitarianism these days, and it is the first time that China has used this word.

When Britain was confused, only Jiang Yu knew what happened.

"It seems that Germany has begun to reorganize its submarine force. The wolf pack tactics will appear in the Atlantic Ocean soon, and the British will cry." Jiang Yu thought gloatingly.

At this time, Jiang Yu was running to the Hangzhou Shipyard to personally participate in the submarine technology research. In order to allow Germany to use submarines with better performance, Jiang Yu was very concerned.

"Marshal, the sonar device has been successfully used on the submarine." The engineer in charge of the submarine research reported to Jiang Yu.

"Is there any progress in the research on speed?" Jiang Yu continued to ask.

"The progress has been very great. Due to the use of advanced diesel engines, the underwater speed of the submarine has reached 11 knots, and the water speed has reached 21 knots." The engineer said excitedly.

"Well! The next step is to study larger-tonnage submarines. We need to develop large-tonnage submarines with a battery life of [-] kilometers and self-sufficiency for two months at sea." Jiang Yu instructed.

"Yes."

Hangzhou Shipyard immediately started new submarine research. Jiang Yu did intend to provide advanced submarines to Germany. In fact, Germany's submarine technology is also very advanced.

During World War I, the technical level of Germany's more than 200 unbuilt submarines was not inferior to that of World War II, because the German research and development capabilities were too strong.

However, Germany's more than 200 advanced submarines in the latter part of World War I were not completed. Because of the defeat of the war, the port for manufacturing submarines was lost.

China's research and development capabilities are far inferior to those of Germany, but because of the unscientific existence of Jiang Yu who has opened a plug-in, China's submarine research and development capabilities have become very powerful.

Jiang Yu is very happy to see German submarines killing all directions in the Atlantic Ocean, so that they can continue to weaken the power of Western countries, so that the Chinese fisherman can benefit.

Moreover, as a continental country, China is not afraid of submarines at all.

Britain and France are not unwilling to develop submarines, but what is the use of submarines after they are built on a large scale?Anti-submarine submarines are not as easy to use as destroyers.

They built submarines, and there were no German merchant ships for them to fight.

The British navy was sufficient to block German sea traffic.

Therefore, it is not that Britain and France do not develop, but that there is no need to develop submarines at this stage.

What Jiang Yu expected was that the submarine technology of World War II went to World War I, and the Allies did not have mature anti-submarine technology, so what would happen?

In addition, Germany's current choice is whether to follow the rhythm of the United States or follow the rhythm of China.

Germany is also beginning to realize that if it goes at the pace of the United States, it will be bad, but if it goes at the pace of China, it will be much better.

It would be much better indeed.

However, Jiang Yu's purpose is more to drag the United States into the water, so that the United States will also fall into the quagmire of war, and then by helping Germany, the war will continue to stalemate.

Through this stalemate, China can gain the greatest benefit.

For example, China completely occupies the Asian and Oceanian commodity markets, and even the Middle East and African commodity markets. At the same time, if the United States joins the war, China may intervene in the Canadian commodity market, and even squeeze into the South American commodity market.

Apart from war, there are vast overseas markets and overseas resources.

At this time, because the Allies and the Entente countries were busy with the war, the commodities in those colonies began to be scarce, and the prices were also rising steadily.

No matter where, there are always a group of rich people.

Even in the chaotic Congo in later generations, there are a group of people who are very rich, and there are naturally people who are very rich in those colonies, and the colonists in the colonies also have to consume.

The colonies can no longer produce those commodities, and Chinese commodities will naturally be killed directly.

This kind of overseas market will bring China a steady stream of benefits, and then China will use these benefits to import overseas resources, which is equivalent to buying low and selling high.

The country and the people will naturally become rich in this way. (To be continued. Please search, the novel is better and updated faster!)
