Jacob, the German ambassador to Switzerland, has been enjoying himself during this time. As Germany won successive victories on the battlefield, his back became straighter and straighter. Almost everyone believes that Germany won the war, and there is no suspense anymore. It is also certain that Germany will replace Britain as the new world hegemon.

Countless countries want to curry favor with Germany, the new world hegemon. Jacob, the ambassador to Switzerland, is naturally complimented by envoys from various countries. In particular, some countries that were not very friendly to Germany during the war wanted to take this opportunity to repair their relations with Germany, lest Germany would settle accounts with them after winning the war.

"Your Excellency, the ambassador of the island country wants to meet with you." The secretary said to Jacob.

"Islanders? What do they want? If I remember correctly, we and the island countries are still warring countries. Those colonies of the empire in the Pacific are still in the hands of the islanders!" Jacob frowned.

The so-called effective from top to bottom, after the emperor of the empire has spoken to the islanders, the officials of the empire will naturally not have a good face on the islanders. Especially those diplomats are good at trying to figure out people's hearts. Naturally, they will not be stupid enough to maintain a good relationship with the islanders.

"Your Excellency, the ambassador of the island country claims to want to talk to you about the colonies in the Pacific Ocean." The secretary said.

Jacob thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, you can arrange it!"

"Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." The secretary breathed a sigh of relief. In his pocket was a thousand marks from the islanders. The request of the islanders is also very simple, it is just to facilitate the meeting between the ambassador of the island country and Jacob, not to let him betray the information of Germany, so the secretary thinks that this money is very easy to earn.

The next night, Jacob and Yasuya Uchida met in the back room of the German embassy in Switzerland.

"Hello, Mr. Jacob, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet me!" Uchida Yasuya kept his posture very low, as if he regarded himself as Jacob's subordinate.

For islanders, face is never an important thing. There is only one thing they really care about, and that is real benefits. If saving face can bring them benefits, these islanders will not hesitate to throw face away.

"Hello, Uchidsama." Jacob was very satisfied when he saw Uchida Yasuya humiliating in front of him.

"Your Excellency Jacob, it is a complete misunderstanding that our country declared war on the German Empire. Your Excellency should be clear that our country and the United Kingdom signed an alliance treaty as early as 1902 and renewed it in 1911. Therefore, the war broke out Afterwards, we had to fulfill our alliance promises, and we declared war on Germany as a last resort. This was not from our original intention. We sincerely admire the German Empire's victories on the battlefield. Therefore, our country wants to To correct this mistake. Our country has decided to dissolve the alliance with the United Kingdom. And, return all of Germany's colonies in the Pacific to Germany!" Uchida Yasuya said.

In order to win the interests of the island country, he pushed all the responsibilities on the British, as if they were so innocent.

Jacob smiled, but his smile was very contemptuous, the kind of superficial smile. Regarding Uchida Koya's performance, he was completely on the sidelines. Uchida Yasuya's rhetoric may be okay to coax a three-year-old child. However, to deceive a senior diplomat like him would be to underestimate himself.

"Your Excellency, no matter what the reason is, it is an undeniable fact that your country declared war on the Empire and brazenly seized the empire's colonies! If your country is willing to return those colonies, it would be great. However, your China's actions have caused serious losses to the German Empire, so should your country compensate the German Empire for its losses? Jacob asked.

"This..." Uchida Yasuya was stunned. The island country only promises to return those colonies, and it is still on the premise that Germany allows the island country to join the Allies. As for paying compensation to Germany, he was not authorized to do so.

"Your Excellency, I will report your request to the country." Uchida Yasuya said.

Jacob nodded, he knew that Uchida Yasuya could not be the master. In fact, he is just a mouthpiece. At the request of the islanders, he must also report to the country exactly. As for whether the country will agree, it is not up to him to decide.

"Your Excellency, our country hopes to correct the mistakes we made in the past. Therefore, we hope to join the German-led allies. If Germany is willing to accept us, our country promises to do its duty and declare war on Britain!" Uchida Yasuya continued Said.

"Join the Allies?" Jacob was a little unsure what the islanders were thinking. If it was before the outbreak of the war, if the island country wanted to betray Britain and join the Allies, Germany would naturally agree with it. After all, after the Russo-Japanese War, the island country can be regarded as one of the few powers in the world. Especially their army, although the equipment is poor. However, it still has a strong fighting power. If the island country can attack the British colonies in the early stage of the war, or cooperate with Germany to attack Russia, it will be very beneficial to Germany.

But it is a pity that when the war broke out, the island country fulfilled the Anglo-Japanese alliance without hesitation and declared war on the Allies.

Now, the islanders want to join the Allies, their intentions are undoubtedly very suspicious.

Jacob can be sure that the reason why the islanders proposed to join the Allies at this time must have an ulterior secret.

Suddenly, Jacob had a flash of inspiration and immediately understood the intentions of the islanders. The islanders demanded to declare war on Britain. Obviously, it was impossible to send troops to Europe to participate in the attack on the British mainland. Then, there is undoubtedly only one target of their attack, and that is the British colony in the Far East.

Britain has already paid a heavy price in this war. Their colonies in various places no longer have decent troops. It can be said that if the island countries attack the British colonies, they can easily occupy those colonies. At that time, who will those colonies belong to?

"Your Excellency, I have to admire your country's brazenness. You actually want to **** the fat from the bowl of the German Empire at this time, it is simply shameless. Do you think that the diplomats of the German Empire are all fools? ? Jacob said coldly.

Suddenly, Uchida Yasuya looked embarrassed, ashamed and angry.
