Jagged Germany-Chapter 1742: unconditional surrender
"Everyone, the United States will be defeated so easily by us. This is indeed beyond everyone's expectations! It seems that the United States is just a paper tiger that looks powerful on the outside, but in fact it is not very good at all. But , we cannot relax our vigilance against the Americans because of this. After all, the United States is a country with a large territory, rich resources, and a superior geographical location. Even if they fail to challenge the hegemony of the empire this time, but if the empire If the United States is let go, then this will inevitably leave a future trouble for the empire. Therefore, we must seize this opportunity to defeat the United States in one fell swoop, and we must never give them another chance!" Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The military and political ministers of the empire replied one after another.
"The United States lost so quickly this time, but their industrial strength and military potential should not be underestimated. You know, this time the US Army alone has mobilized 8 million troops. If it is not because the US Army's combat effectiveness is too bad, If the Empire wants to win this battle, I am afraid it will pay a higher price. Therefore, it will be more beneficial to the Empire to solve the United States once and for all." Marshal Raeder, Secretary of the Navy, also said.
"Your Majesty, the Empire has asked the Americans to surrender unconditionally. So, will the Americans accept such a request from the Empire?" Foreign Minister Ribbentrop was a little worried.
Obviously, as long as the Americans are clear-headed, they will not agree to the conditions of the empire. Because this means that once the United States agrees to surrender unconditionally, then they will have to be slaughtered by the empire.
"It's up to the Americans not to agree to this. The situation on the front line is very favorable to us. It is said that the US military is completely desperate, and now a large number of troops voluntarily surrender to us every day. If the US government does not accept the conditions of the empire, then , we will continue to fight. In this way, it will take a few days to finish all the remaining American troops. At that time, the empire can still destroy the United States directly. However, it will take a relatively long time That's all." Qin Tian said.
Ribbentrop nodded, the Empire has an absolute advantage on the North American battlefield. Under such circumstances, the Americans really had no way to refuse. After all, even if the Americans refuse. The empire also has absolute strength to destroy the United States.
"Send a telegram to Marshal Manstein and let him reply to the Americans. The empire only gives them two choices, either continue to fight, or surrender to the empire unconditionally!" Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Majesty." The ministers all replied.
On this issue, Qin Tianxia made up his mind. The military and political ministers of the empire will not confront Qin Tian on this issue. They also know how great the benefit of the empire is to the demise of the United States. Only when the United States is destroyed, will the hegemony of the German Empire be stabilized.
Although, the ministers are more or less worried that the United States will reject the imperial request. However, as Qin Tian said. The United States now has no capital to fight against the empire. The empire's military operations on the North American continent have achieved a decisive victory. Next, if the United States does not accept the conditions of the empire, the empire only needs to continue to attack, and the United States can be destroyed soon.
North America, the headquarters of the German army on the front line. US Secretary of State Hull rested in a lounge arranged by the German army, waiting for a reply from Germany.
It's just that Hull's mood is more anxious. He is very worried that Germany will not give the United States a chance for peace talks. If that is the case, then the United States is really in danger.
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, an officer of the German army knocked on the door of Hull's lounge.
"Come in!" Hull straightened his clothes and said.
"Your Excellency Secretary of State, Your Excellency Marshal invites you to go over." The officer seemed polite.
"Okay." Hull nodded.
Soon, Hull came to Marshal Manstein's office.
"Secretary of State, please sit down." Marshal Manstein still had a smile on his face.
"Your Excellency Marshal, is there any news in your country?" Hull asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency Secretary of State. His Majesty the Emperor has officially responded to your country's request for peace." Marshal Manstein said.
"Then, what is your Majesty's reply?" Hull was a little nervous, he was afraid of hearing Germany's rejection.
"Your Excellency, Secretary of State, His Majesty the Emperor has only one request, and that is the unconditional surrender of the American Republic!" Marshal Manstein said. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
"Unconditional surrender? How is this possible?" Hull was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't help but speak out against it. Obviously, he knows what it means for the American Republic once he agrees to surrender unconditionally.
"Your Excellency, Secretary of State, this is the request of the Emperor of the Empire and the request of the German Empire. Of course, your country can refuse." Marshal Manstein said. Hull would have such a reaction, not beyond his expectations. However, this is nothing to the German army.
Hull was silent for a while, he naturally knew that the Germans had the confidence to make such harsh demands. However, he still wants to try his best to fight for it.
"Secretary of State, the United States of America is very sincere. We can show enough sincerity in terms of cession and compensation. However, we cannot accept unconditional surrender." Hull said.
"Then, unfortunately, we can only obtain what we want through war." Marshal Manstein looked calm.
From what Marshal Manstein said, Hull could hear the obvious threat from the other party. Obviously, if the United States does not accept Germany's request, the German army will continue to attack. At that time, it is still conceivable what will happen to the United States.
"Your Excellency Marshal, we still have millions of troops, and we can continue to fight!" Hull said. It seems to want to use this to remind the German army not to be too arrogant. Although the U.S. military suffered heavy losses, they are not incapable of continuing to fight. The current U.S. military has at least two million troops. This is also a very large force.
"Your Excellency, Secretary of State, I am very aware of this. However, I believe that in the near future, all the remaining troops in your country will be wiped out by us. I have no doubts about this!" Marshal Manstein smiled. He was completely unmoved by Hull's threat.
Hull was finally speechless about this.
Subsequently, Hull left the German headquarters with a look of dismay. For him, this mission was considered a failure. So, what will happen to the future of the United States, perhaps only God knows.
