Five Hundred and Eight Envoys

As the special envoy of the German head of state, Guf led his entourage down the hanging ladder and landed on American soil. Although the soldiers of the two countries have been fighting in darkness in North Africa, the two countries are still diplomatic relations at the ambassadorial level on the surface, and they are countries with normal relations that have not gone to war in the traditional sense.

So Guf's arrival was not unexpected. In fact, the US special envoy also arrived in Berlin not long ago, and expressed a solemn protest to the German government about the sinking of the US transport ship by Germany.

Of course, at that time to protest against Germany’s adoption of the “drag” strategy, no one really went after the German submarine’s sinking of the American transport ship, and no one really paid attention to the hysterical roar of the US special envoy.

Doenitz's submarine force is now all over the Atlantic Ocean, and has even extended its influence to the icy Arctic Ocean. These underwater sharks swarmed and sank any non-German-flagged vessel they could see. They did sink American transport ships, and even sunk countless American transport ships, and these tens of thousands of tons of battle results are recorded in the Navy's combat report at this moment, and the evidence is absolutely true.

If you still don't believe they actually sank the American ships then look at these submarine captains with iron crosses like leaves around their necks bragging in bars about how they sank the American transports before Like a pirate, they robbed the food and wine on the ship, and showed off their amazing achievements to each other.

While rewarding the latest and coolest Mercedes-Benz cars, the most charming beauties, and the newly renovated and most luxurious bungalows to these submarine warfare stars with outstanding achievements, and remitting a lot of money to their private accounts, while It was the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who vomited bitterness in front of the US envoy, and vowed that the German army would never do anything to attack American friends-Merkel felt a little shameless, but he really enjoyed this kind of shamelessness the process of.

"Mr. Guff, this time you come to the United States on behalf of Germany. You must explain to President Roosevelt the issue of the attack on our American merchant ship..." Upon meeting, the staff of the US Foreign Ministry who was in charge of receiving Guff brought up the issue of the attack on the Atlantic Ocean. Successive incidents of German submarine attacks on merchant ships.

"I'm sorry, sir. I came to the United States this time to represent our German head of state, the great Mr. Arkador Rudolph, to meet with the US President Mr. Roosevelt...not to talk about these small things." Gufu Glancing at the chattering American diplomats around him, he said coldly, "How did your ship sink, do you want our Maritime Safety Administration to take care of it?"

"You...!" Who doesn't know that you Germans are responsible for these shipwrecks? Who doesn't know that your submarines have already started patrolling the east coast of the United States? We also sank a German submarine the other day! American diplomats cursed in their hearts.

In the end, the American diplomat whose face was flushed couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at Gufu's nose, and said, "There will be times when you come to beg us in the United States! At that time, you'd better remember today's arrogance,

We Americans will definitely repay you double! "

Gu Fu nodded, and replied with a smile: "I hope there will be such a time, but even if there is such a time, I will not be as hysterical as your Excellency today."

"..." The American diplomat felt that it was better for him to keep his mouth shut. It seemed that he really had nothing to gain from a powerful diplomat elected by such a powerful country.

Soon Gufu met the President of the United States, Mr. Roosevelt. After greeting each other, they found a sofa facing each other and sat down. The atmosphere of the meeting was so friendly, and it was not obvious at all that the two countries were already at war with each other in the Atlantic Ocean and North Africa.

"Your country still owes me an explanation to this old man, Mr. Goof. You haven't given a reasonable explanation for the sinking of our merchant ship." Roosevelt did not give up on pursuing the Atlantic submarine warfare, and after a few chats, he dismissed the issue. transferred to this matter.

Gufu obviously came prepared, and he didn't circle around or refuse at all. He put away his smiling face, put on a solemn face, looked at President Roosevelt and said: "Mr. President, since you think there should be an explanation, then the German submarine sank the transport ship bound for Britain instead of Merchant, do you think this explanation is reasonable?"

"No, no, Mr. Goof, these are not transport ships, but merchant ships!" Roosevelt sneered, playing a trick that the Germans had been playing for a long time. He knew that those ships were full of munitions and strategic materials, but it was obviously absolutely unacceptable at this time.

"Mr. President." Gufu obviously guessed Roosevelt's attitude, and continued: "If you don't admit that those ships are transport ships, then we will not admit that those ships were sunk by German submarines—it's as simple as that."

Obviously, both sides are unwilling to tear their faces, and neither is willing to give up the right to stab each other secretly. So the game will continue to be played like this until the power of a country between the two countries breaks the balance of the world.

Roosevelt remained silent, but Goof didn't stop there. He looked at Roosevelt and continued, "American tanks and cars appeared in North Africa. Where did the U.S. Army come from, and captured more than 70 prisoners from this army...Mr. President Roosevelt, would you like to talk about this issue?"

"There is such a thing?" Roosevelt pretended not to know the inside story, and called his secretary, and the two began to whisper there. It seems that they really only heard the news today, and it seems that those American soldiers really have nothing to do with the United States.

After learning about the situation with his subordinates, Roosevelt's eyes softened obviously, then he looked at Guff with a smile, and replied: "Those American soldiers volunteered to go to North Africa to support the British in the war. Most of them have British relatives and friends, so they joined the British Army and fought for the British Army. This matter has nothing to do with the US government. Please consider the historical and traditional relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom. Affect the friendly relations between our two countries."

Gufu looked at Roosevelt, his eyes were full of such a look, and his face was full of the word "beaten", as if reminding Roosevelt: You have already found a place for the Atlantic submarine war in North Africa, so go down. Stop complaining about the sinking of the merchant ship this time, or I will talk about the American prisoners in North Africa!

Both of them were silent for more than ten seconds, as if they were digesting the diplomatic attitude revealed by each other. Soon the two of them seemed to understand, looked at each other and laughed.

"Germany does not want to be the enemy of the United States. We will try our best to exercise restraint in the Atlantic Ocean and North Africa. You know that we have been opposing the westward advance of the Soviet Union and resisting the erosion of the Communist International." Regardless of the common interests of capitalist countries, do things that harm capitalist countries."

Roosevelt nodded and smiled and replied: "The United States also hopes to maintain the friendly relationship between the two countries with the powerful Germany. The small frictions in North Africa and the Atlantic Ocean will not affect our extensive cooperation in other fields!"

Germany is now concentrating its efforts to win the war on the Eastern Front, so it has no time and energy to deal with the powerful United States, and the United States is now worried that its interests in the Philippines will be destroyed by Japan, and obviously does not want to establish another strong enemy like Germany . Neither country wanted to tear apart the friendly relationship on the surface, so they hit it off on this issue.

It seems to be an agreement. The United States seems to have forgotten the fact that German submarines ravaged the Atlantic Ocean. Their countless shipwrecks have really become tragic souls; Germany has never seen American soldiers in North Africa, and Rommel’s prisoner-of-war camp There have never been only Englishmen here.

Goof and Roosevelt had dinner together in a tacit understanding. The two commented on the tender steak, tasted the old red wine, and chatted about music and sports. The 1936 Olympic Games was held in Italy because Akado was busy with military expansion and war preparations. The performance of the German delegation can only be described as quite satisfactory.

But obviously there is not much that everyone can talk about at this kind of diplomatic dinner. After avoiding a lot of sensitive topics, there are only a handful of things that can interest everyone-you can’t let the US president and the special envoy of the head of state be in Women were talked about together, so fencing and sailing became the main talking points.

"I heard that Mr. Führer had many lovers? Isn't this kind of thing a scandal for the leader in Germany?" When the banquet was about to end, Roosevelt curiously asked Gufu such a question.

Gufu was taken aback, and then explained proudly: "In the Middle East and Far East, it is very reasonable for an emperor to have many concubines. Even if the head of state wants to ascend the throne of the emperor, I am very supportive, not to mention Is it a matter of dating more women?"

Nodding his head, Roosevelt brought the topic back to the Olympic long-distance race. He lamented that his legs and feet were inconvenient, and he could not appreciate the charm of fast and passionate sports.

However, in his heart, there are extremely turbulent waves: the ruling power of this head of state in Germany is obviously far greater than that of the United States he leads. He was constrained by the Congress all the time - on this point, he thought he couldn't surpass Akado.
