    "Why? Your Majesty. Our main enemy now is Japan, as well as Russia, Britain, France and other countries that may be hostile to us. If we continue to be hostile to the United States now, then we are likely to be unable to defeat the four-handed nation with two fists!" Foreign Minister Wu Tingfang  said.

    "Although the military strength of the United States is far behind, their industrial strength is very strong. As far as the navy is concerned, they have already started construction of five new warships and they will be able to serve within the next one to two years. In addition,  With the industrial strength of the United States, it is possible to build more than ten battleships at the same time. However, we cannot." Xiong Wu also said.  There is no doubt that there is no benefit in China and the United States completely breaking up now.  The purpose of seizing Hawaii is to seize the opportunity in future strategies, but at the same time, we also need to try our best to ensure that there is no military conflict with the United States.

    "Five cutting-edge battleships? Even the battleships they are currently designing are probably not as powerful as our 'Sichuan-class' battleships, right? Not to mention the 'Zhonghua-class' battleships we are about to complete.  . Our current main enemy is Japan, which is true. However, the current U.S. Navy, with our Pacific Fleet alone, is enough to defeat them. So, if the Americans are not interested, we can have a fight with them.  In the United States, there are also great doubts about whether it should expand abroad. The United States has a vast land area, which is enough for Americans to live. At the same time, they must be prepared to fail in foreign wars.  , Americans and the U.S. government have little confidence in their military. Therefore, if we can defeat the U.S. Navy cleanly, there are only two possibilities. One is that the Americans immediately build more battleships.  Fight with us to the end. Another possibility is to give up external expansion. If it is the second possibility, this is undoubtedly the best result for us!" Wang Yuze said.

    Xiong Wu and Wu Tingfang both nodded, and they also admitted that such a situation might occur.  However, it is difficult to say what the specific situation will be.  At least, according to Chinese thinking, after being defeated, you have to find a way to take revenge in the future.  But foreigners and Chinese people think differently, and it¡¯s hard to say what they will think.

    "In addition, the industrial strength of the United States is strong, much stronger than ours. Perhaps in terms of fiscal revenue alone, we are now stronger than the United States. However, this is because we have a large population and have spent a lot of wealth developing the economy.  The above reasons. If we want to quickly shorten the distance from the United States in industry, in addition to the first billion we spent, I am afraid we will have to spend more money. The United States has strong industrial strength, but its armaments are very  Weak, isn't this just a fat sheep for us? As long as we can defeat their navy, then the Americans can only surrender and let us cut their flesh from them?" Wang Yuze said with a smile.  Although the United States has only been founded for more than two hundred years, it has developed rapidly over the past two hundred years and has accumulated huge wealth. If it can cut off its flesh and blood from the United States, it will undoubtedly further promote China's development.

    "Cut meat from the United States?" Wang Yuze's idea shocked both Xiong Wu and Wu Tingfang.  With the strong industrial strength of the United States, if it goes into full-scale war with China, it will probably be difficult to deal with it!  In addition, China has so many enemies, and it seems that there is no need to provoke a powerful United States. This is very detrimental to China's current situation.

    "Your Majesty! Although the United States is a fat sheep, it may turn into a tiger at any time! The fat on the United States is not so easy to cut!" Xiong Wu reminded, he was afraid that Wang Yuze's brain would get hot and bring China into the world.  In desperate situation.

    "Chief of Staff, as far as we and the United States are concerned, is it possible to coexist peacefully? The answer is no! Both we and the United States are developing at a high speed. However, it seems that we have the upper hand militarily, while the United States has the upper hand in industrial strength.  Dominate. However, once the United States transforms its huge industrial strength into military strength, it will be difficult for us to continue to gain advantage. Therefore, we'd better take advantage of the present time, before the United States' military power has yet to develop.  Teach the United States a lesson and seize benefits from the United States to develop ourselves. Only when we become stronger can we be unafraid of the United States. As for defeating the United States, we have to start with the navy. I believe that as a large number of our  As new warships are launched into service, our advantage over the United States will continue to be maintained. Moreover, part of the benefits gained from the United States will also be invested in military development, allowing us to always maintain this advantage. Finally, if the Americans  If we turn our attention to armaments instead of economic development, it will stagnate the economic development of the United States, which is also of great benefit to us!" Wang Yuze said.  This is his first time during this period of timeA question I have been thinking about all the time.  There will inevitably be a war between China and the United States.  Should we wait until the United States has become completely powerful and then engage in a head-on war with the United States, or should we start now?  There is no doubt that if we start now, China has a good chance of winning.

    "Your Majesty, your point of view makes sense. However, this is nothing more than a gamble for us. If we lose, all our efforts over the past few decades will be in vain!" Xiong Wu said  .  In his view, China does not yet have the strength to defeat the United States. In fact, the United States is indeed very difficult to defeat because of its special geographical location.  However, as the United States grows in strength, it becomes increasingly difficult to defeat them.

    "This may be a gamble. However, if we operate properly, it may not be impossible to win the final victory. And what we have to do is to ensure that we will not fail as much as possible!" Wang Yuze said firmly.  In later generations, the United States has become the world's only superpower, and no country can compete with the United States.  The United States truly developed with the help of World War I and World War II. Before World War I, although the United States was considered a world power, due to its poor military strength, they could only be regarded as a very backward world power.  It can be said that now is the best opportunity to defeat the United States and contain it.  As the United States becomes more powerful, it will become more difficult for China to defeat the United States.  Therefore, Wang Yuze had to consider taking risks.  In addition, as he said, the huge wealth accumulated in the United States is exactly what China needs.  China is carrying out large-scale infrastructure construction, developing industry, developing education and science and technology, and developing armaments, all of which require a large amount of front work.  It would undoubtedly be best if the United States could be used as a cow.

    There is no doubt that if a war breaks out between China and the United States, the winner will definitely be the Chinese Navy.  The United States lost the war and could only pay a certain price and end the war.  China can gain certain benefits from this opportunity.  Although after the war, the United States will definitely be hostile to China and rapidly develop armaments, trying to defeat China later like Japan.  In Wang Yuze's vision, when China and Japan go to war, the United States will definitely take action against China again.  At that time, it will be the real test for China.  If the Chinese Navy can first defeat the Japanese Navy and then defeat the US Navy, then China will gain a huge victory.  As for the Japanese army that started the war between China and Japan, Wang Yuze estimated that it would be about two years later. By that time, almost all the warships built by Japan abroad had returned to China, and the warships built by Japan had also been put into service. Japan's naval strength had almost completely recovered.  This is a good opportunity to start a war with China.  It is estimated that the United States will only build a few battleships by then.  Wang Yuze believes that the Chinese Navy's "Zhonghua Class" battleships can definitely easily defeat the Japanese Navy. When the time comes, they will head to the eastern Pacific and cooperate with the Pacific Fleet to defeat the US Navy.  Then, the overall situation can be decided.

    Of course, there are still many loopholes in this, including whether the UK will intervene and so on.  However, if it succeeds, it will bring huge benefits to China. Such benefits are enough to make China take risks.

    "Your Majesty, have you really decided?" Xiong Wu asked.  There is no doubt that Wang Yuze's point of view is very tempting.  As the saying goes, a horse cannot grow fat without night grass, and a man cannot become rich without windfall!  The gap between China and Western powers is too big, and it is very difficult to catch up in a short time.  If China's development can be accelerated by plundering other countries, this is undoubtedly a very good way.  However, if it fails, China will be knocked off the cliff again.

    "Yes, I have decided!" Wang Yuze said with certainty.  He is determined to implement this strategy. The reason why the Western powers are what they are today is entirely based on the plunder of colonies.  But now, China has no colonies to plunder, so it can only target relatively weak powers.  The United States undoubtedly meets the condition of "people are stupid and have a lot of money".

    "Then, the empire's army will fight to the death!" Xiong Wu said firmly.  The army of the empire should naturally fight for the interests of the empire. Now that Wang Yuze has made up his mind, they must try their best to win.  There is another reason why Xiong Wu made up his mind so quickly, and that is the strength of the Chinese Army.  The war between China and the United States is basically a war between navies. Even if it fails, China will only lose overseas interests at most. If you want to destroy China, it is almost impossible.  China's powerful army is enough to ensure the country's security!
