Beacon Country, Washington, White Palace.
Woodrow Wilson, the leader of the Lighthouse Nation, is discussing the next situation with the high-level officials of the Lighthouse State.
These people are all members of the cabinet of the Beacon Country, including Second Commander Robert Lansing, Treasury Secretary William McAdoo, War Secretary Newton Baker, Secretary of the Navy Joseph Daniels and Commerce Secretary William Redfield and others.
“Gentlemen, the great war in Europe has been going on for two and a half years. Unfortunately, however, from the current situation, the Entente already had an absolute advantage in the war. The Germans don’t seem to have much time left. It is expected that soon this war will be over. Woodrow Wilson looked sorry.
How he hoped that this great war would last! Let these old powers on the European continent fight as long as possible, and the more ruthless the better. In this way, the power of the European continent will be further weakened. Invisibly, the strength of the lighthouse country will be even stronger.
Besides, in the past two and a half years, the lighthouse country has made a lot of money by selling all kinds of war materials and other resources to the Allies. If the war continues, then the 080s will undoubtedly be able to make more profits. Even, further hollowing out the European continent.
“Your Excellency, there is no way around this. The Allies had gained a huge advantage in this war, and it was clear that the Allies could no longer hold on. The Kingdom of Caesar was originally surviving. Now, Austria-Hungary has been destroyed by the Russian Empire. Then, I am afraid that the Kingdom of Caesar will soon admit defeat to the Entente. Only the Germanic Empire remains, even if they have strong military strength, but they are difficult to support alone! Second Commander Robert Lansing said.
“The strength of the Russian Empire in this war was indeed too strong, completely beyond the expectations of all countries. In particular, the Allies gathered a large number of main forces to launch a large-scale counterattack on the Eastern Front, and as a result, not only did not defeat the Russian Empire, but also cost themselves heavy losses. This shows the strength of the Russian Empire. At least in terms of ground combat forces, I am afraid that no country in the world can compare with the Tsarist Empire! “War Minister Newton Beck made no secret of his vigilance against the Russian Empire.
“The military strength of the Russian Empire is too strong, which is a great threat to us. Do not forget that the Russian Empire has already expanded in the Pacific direction. They didn’t just capture the island of Hokkaido in the Eastern Empire. At the same time, it also received the colonies of the Germanic Empire in the Pacific Ocean. Although, the influence of the Russian Empire in the Pacific was still relatively small. But once the war was over, the Russian Empire was likely to increase its investment in the Pacific. This is undoubtedly a huge threat to us. Although the Pacific Ocean is large, it cannot accommodate too many powerful countries.
Originally, we only needed to be wary of the Eastern Empire. But now, I am afraid that I have to add a Tsarist Russian Empire. ”
Secretary of the Navy Joseph Daniels said.
Although, over the years, the strength of the Beacon Nation Navy has developed rapidly. However, in terms of overall military strength, there is still a big gap compared with such an old power as the Tsarist Empire!
“In other words, in the future, in the Pacific, I am afraid that we will inevitably clash with the Russian Empire and even fall into competition?” Woodrow Wilson asked.
“Yes, Your Excellency. However, the center of gravity of the Russian Empire was on the mainland. At present, their naval strength is still relatively weak. However, it is certain that if after the end of the war, the Russian Empire increased its investment in the navy. Well, they will soon have a very powerful navy. And for us, the threat will also grow. Secretary of the Navy Joseph Daniels explained.
Woodrow Wilson nodded, and he also had reason to believe. After the end of the war, the Russian Empire is very likely to increase its investment in the navy. In other words, after the army has become the most powerful country in the world, it will inevitably vigorously develop the navy and further enhance the country’s military strength.
“Your Excellency, the Zionist Organization has also contacted us and hopes to receive greater support from us. They had already been in contact with the Russians and wanted to return to Balestan. However, it was rejected by the Russians. So much so that they can now only pin their hopes on us. To this end, the Zionist Organization can give us greater support, both financially and otherwise! Second Commander Robert Lansing continued.
The Zionist Organization has a very large influence in the Beacon State. In other words, many of the business figures in the Beacon State are members of the Zionist Organization.
And the influence of big businessmen in the lighthouse country is very large. Without their support, many legislators would have financial difficulties in their campaigns. Even the high-level of the lighthouse country on the table is supported by these businessmen.
Since these people paid for it, they naturally have to be rewarded. Otherwise, once they don’t support anymore. It is unlikely that these politicians will continue to gain support.
Under such circumstances, the high-level officials of the lighthouse country naturally have to protect the interests of these people.
“Of course we can support the Zionist Organization. But how do we support them? Can’t we go to war directly with the Russians and help them conquer the Balestan region? In that case, you are completely looking for death! Woodrow Wilson shook his head repeatedly. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
Even if they support the Zionist Organization, there must be a limit, and it is impossible to support them unconditionally and endlessly.
“Your Excellency, this is inseparable from our confrontation with the Russians. For all these reasons, it may be difficult to achieve peace between us and the Russians. What’s more, if we want to further expand our international influence and improve our voice in the world, we must do so! Robert Lansing continued.
Woodrow Wilson’s expression became serious.
The current lighthouse country is already the first in the world in terms of industrial output value.
However, in terms of international influence and discourse, it is far from matching our position in industry.
This makes Woodrow Wilson eager to further enhance the strength of the lighthouse country after becoming the commander, so that the lighthouse country’s status in the international community can be further improved.
