Capitol Hill, Washington, DC, U.S.
In the spacious hall, the round conference table, like a stone thrown into the river, would spread out in circles. At the front of the conference table, a congressman was complaining angrily.
"British, it's too much this time!" This congressman has already sat here in his thirties, because he has a hard enough backstage and he represents the Rockefeller family!
It can be said that the MPs present have all kinds of big family backgrounds. It is impossible for a grassroots to give pointers here.
Deren Rockefeller, because of his anger, has already stood up: "The British clearly know that the Libyan oil field was developed in cooperation with Germany, Italy, and they actually deployed bombers to bomb the oil field. This is a provocation!"
It’s true that Germany bombed the British fleet and caused heavy losses to the British. It is understandable for the British to retaliate. However, if the British want to retaliate, you will find the German fleet and the German air force to retaliate. You bomb Libya. What kind of?
If the British only bombed Libya's oil fields, that would be fine. The problem is that the vice president of the Rockefeller Group was also killed!
Needless to say, the bodyguards at the time were all on the scene, watching the British bombers drop the bombs, the rice-character marks on the wings were clear, and some people even identified the model of the aircraft. It was definitely a British aircraft. !
It is too much for the British to do so, and the Rockefeller Company must let the British know the price!
"Therefore, we absolutely will not agree to the proposal to rent out British warships! I vote against it!"
The vitality of the British navy was severely injured. In order to recover its vitality as soon as possible, Churchill, the new British Secretary of the Navy, proposed a plan to lease some warships from the United States.
This proposal is now being passed by Congress. After all, the United States is a democratic country. It is not because Roosevelt and Churchill have a good relationship that they can lend everything to Britain.
You know, those warships were bought with taxpayers' money!
In later generations, the United States passed the Lease Bill for the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union, which was also passed after Roosevelt’s generous speech in Congress and won the approval of Congress.
But now, this resolution will not be passed by the Rockefeller Group!
Deren continued to express his views: "After the First World War, the Treaty of Versailles shackled Germany too much. We did not sign the Treaty of Versailles because we knew that the treaty was unreasonable."
"What happened later? Britain and France continued to squeeze Germany. Take the most recent example, the Poles assassinated the German head of state, which attracted German revenge, but Britain and France actually declared war on Germany, invaded Germany, and attracted German revenge. It's also completely normal."
"The Europeans' affairs, let the Europeans solve it, it has nothing to do with the New World." Delun finished expressing his views and sat down.
Deren's words spoke out the aspirations of many consortia.
Just after Deren finished expressing his views, the congressman representing the Ford family also stood up. He agreed with Deren just now, let the Europeans take care of the bad things of the Europeans!
Now, there are many similarities and differences with history.
Historically, many companies in the United States have relations with Germany. For example, Ford is definitely a close accomplice of the Germans.
However, the current relationship has been strengthened. Ford directly opened a factory in Germany and made a lot of profits. At the same time, cars developed in Germany can even be sold back to the United States, which is also very popular.
The Rockefeller Company has gained more profit than in history.
For example, in the Libyan oil field, Rockefeller owns 5% of the shares, and profits continue to flow. They even have more ideas to develop more Libyan oil fields.
They have a close relationship with Germany. What can Britain bring to them? Britain controls a large number of Middle Eastern oil fields and is in competition with them.
Therefore, they support Germany.
For the capitalists, the pursuit of profit is their only purpose, even if they watch Germany start to gain momentum, they will not give up the opportunity to make money.
Like the Rockefeller Company in history, even if the United States and Germany went to war, it still secretly sold to German oil, which is enough to be treason.
In addition to these people who have real interest in Germany, there is another type of people in the United States who also hold a supportive attitude.
This is the German origin.
The United States was originally a country of immigrants. Native Indians were almost killed long ago.
Therefore, in the United States, there are all skin colors and all races.
The first German immigrants probably landed in New York and Pennsylvania in 1680~EbookFREE.me~ Since then, about 8 million German immigrants have come to settle in North America one after another.
A large number of German immigrants came to the United States until the 19th century. The largest number of immigrants occurred between 1840 and 1900. Since then, the number of Germans has exceeded Irish and British.
During World War II, the population of the United States was 131 million, and the German population was about 22 million, which is a huge number.
Of course, not all Germans have a sense of identity with Germany. For example, Einstein and others who have been killed by Germany definitely hate Germany. In World War II, they personally commanded the US military to land in Europe and Germany. There are also many German officers in the NPC, such as the famous Eisenhower, who is a German.
If you carefully analyze history, you can know that these so-called Germans were all born in the United States, or have lived in the United States for several generations. In their eyes, the United States is their motherland. They have no respect for Germany. Too much sense of identity.
Moreover, in the era when they emigrated, there was no Germany, but the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Without much sense of identity, they can only rely on their own subjective opinions to evaluate, and with the propaganda of those monopoly consortia, Germany is still almost positive now.
Cyric has worked hard here. If he wants to win the European battlefield, he must not allow the United States to get involved. Therefore, he has tried various methods, such as wooing these monopoly consortia, such as giving up the alliance with Japan. , Such as hype in the United States.
Germany did not take the initiative to provoke the war. Every time, Germany was forced, and Germany was still the victim of the First World War.
And those who really fully support Germany are those who immigrated to the United States from Germany after World War I.
