Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III

The Empire immediately contacted the Lighthouse Nation and placed huge orders with the shipping companies of the Lighthouse Country, hiring them to transport various materials for the Empire.

The lighthouse country is originally a capitalist country, and politicians are really just puppets cultivated by capitalists.

And the capitalists, naturally, cannot give up profits. What’s more, the price offered by the Sun Never Sets Empire is very high.

Under such circumstances, various shipping companies began to lobby the government of the Beacon Nation to approve the request to accept orders from the Sun Never Set Empire.

In the face of the requirements of many shipping companies, even the big commander of Woodrower has to deal with it cautiously.

“Damn the sun doesn’t set, are they deliberately trying to drag us into the war?” Woodrower was very dissatisfied. He believes that the sun does not set and people are calculating them.

“Your Excellency, the sun must not set in this and people are calculating. However, we cannot leave business alone and make money without making money. Especially if the price they offer is high. These domestic enterprises simply cannot endure it. Second Commander William Brian said.

“However, this will certainly further arouse the dissatisfaction of the Germanic people against us.” What if the submarine forces of the Germans also made a move on our fleet? Do we swallow our anger when nothing happens, or do we declare war on the Germanic Empire? In that case, wouldn’t the sun not set and be used as a gun by them? Woodrowe was worried.

“The Germans may not have dared to make a move on our convoys. They should also know very well that if they attack our convoy, we will definitely not give up. The Germans did not have the certainty of dealing with us, and they should not have taken risks and made a move on us. At most, it is just a few words of protest to us and demand that we be strictly neutral. William Bryan said.

Woodrower shook his head: “Although the emperor of the Germanic Empire is young, he is not so easy to deal with. If we help the people of the sun to transport supplies, this will cause a sharp deterioration in our relations with the Germans. Don’t forget, they still owe us two billion dollars in loans. If they grab the handle, they will definitely take this opportunity to pay the bill. ”

“Nope! If the Germans dare to settle the score, then we will join the Entente and start a war against them! When they defeat them only, they will pay a greater price! William Bryan said.

The loans owed by the Germanic Empire were all lent by the banking syndicate of the Lighthouse Country.

However, the government of the lighthouse country is also a guarantor.

If the Germanic Empire had paid its bills, the banking syndicates would have demanded that the Beacon State government pay it back.

For this reason, the Lighthouse State simply had no other option than to declare war on the Germanic Empire.

“Your Excellency the Grand Commander, in fact, helping the people of the sun to transport supplies is just a trivial matter. The Germans knew this and would not treat us as such. After all, it is really not cost-effective to start a war with us for such a trifle and push us to the side of the sun that does not set. War Secretary Lindley Garrison said.

“Yes, Your Excellency. It can be seen that the Germans carried out a breaking war in the Atlantic. The fleet and submarine forces they dispatched dealt a great blow to the people who did not fall.

Although the sea transport line that never sets has not been cut off, it has already paid extremely heavy losses. If the Germans were allowed to continue like this, the Empire would suffer a heavy blow.

At that time, maybe the Germans will really win this war. In that case, I am afraid that it will be very unfavorable for us. Nor do we want the Germans to win the war. Once they were victorious and became the hegemon of the European continent. Then, if we want to achieve the rise and compete for world hegemony, it will be even more difficult! ”

Secretary of the Navy Joseph Daniels said.

The other high-level cabinet officials of the Beacon Country all nodded their heads one after another.

The lighthouse country also has great ambitions for world hegemony. They want to replace the Sun Never Set Empire and become the world hegemon. But they know very well that if they want to achieve hegemony, they must make Europe pay a greater price in this war and make Europe shed more blood in this world war.

Otherwise. They simply don’t have a chance.

In particular, the Germanic Empire was also an emerging power. Although there are many shortcomings, it cannot be compared with the lighthouse country in industry.

However, once the Germanic Empire became the hegemon of Europe, these shortcomings would be filled.

If the Lighthouse Nation wants to overwhelm the Germanic Empire, it is completely unlikely.

“The sun is not setting and people are having trouble now, we have to help them. Let them get through this difficult time. In this way, the sun will not set and the people will continue the war. Only then can this war be fought as long as possible, and Europe will pay greater losses. Joseph Daniels continued.

“Good, that’s a great idea. The longer the war in Europe really goes on, the better. In this way, we can exhaust all the reserves accumulated in Europe over the years, so that we can have the opportunity to replace them! Woodrower said.

“Let our shipping companies receive orders that never set in the sun. At the same time, the Navy must also be prepared. If the Germans did not dare to make a move, then that’s it. If they dare to attack our fleet, we must fight back, so that they can see our strength and let them not dare to act rashly! Woodrower said.

“Yes, Your Excellency!” Secretary of the Navy Joseph Daniels and Chief of Naval Operations Admiral William Benson both answered.

Although the strength of the Beacon Nation’s navy was slightly inferior to that of the Imperial Royal Navy and the Germanic Imperial Navy, a large number of battleships were also built. Even, there are quite a few super dreadnoughts.

It can be regarded as the third naval power after the Sun Never Set Empire and the Germanic Empire.

Naturally, they have to show strong confidence and strength.

The government of the lighthouse country instructed the shipping companies to accept orders from the Sun Never Set Empire, which immediately excited the bosses of the shipping companies.

Merchant ships flying the flag of the lighthouse country sailed across the Atlantic, transporting large quantities of materials to the mainland of the Empire and even to Gaul and the Russian Empire, greatly alleviating the pressure of insufficient supplies of the Entente countries.
