Foreign Minister Masayuki Tani sighed. Although Hori Teiki's words were unpleasant, they were the truth. The current situation is clear. At most, Germany is not as troublesome as Japan, and Japan is not as supportive as Germany, but it cannot afford it. European countries only follow Germany's lead. Italy, the second-in-commander of the axis, has just changed its prime minister. Even the stable situation is Germany's intervention. Who dares to challenge Germany?

"I know what Horikun said. As long as it is not a matter of principle, I will do whatever the Germans say. Isn't it just a stinky leg? Who can't?" King Minorhiko Higakuramiya smiled generously, "Germany is the world leader of Europe and defeats Britain, France, the United States and Russia at the same time. It's natural for Japan to be polite. If we want to change the group of red deer in our country, I have no idea where this achievement has been achieved. I must say that you all come to Berlin for a meeting. Why would you choose Cairo to take care of us?"

The Japanese guessed this. The first thing they wanted to do was Hoffman's bad taste in choosing to hold a meeting in Cairo, but they also considered taking care of Japan's face because he wanted to talk to Japan about something different and not earn enough face for the other party first, it would be difficult to speak out.

But King Minorhiko Higashimiya and Teiki Horiya never expected that Germany could not simply agree on the opinions put forward. After the grand and grand welcome ceremony, Hoffman invited King Minorhiko Higashimiya that night to hold a secret meeting, accompanied by Cole and Tani Masayuki. He originally wanted to invite Teiki Horiya, but the Prime Minister was still a royal family, so it was not good to bypass it.

"Your country wants German New Guinea and other Pacific islands? This..." As soon as Hoffman explained his purpose, King Minor Higakuramiya couldn't sit still and almost wanted to jump up and refuse "No," but when he thought of Hori Teiki's explanation in the afternoon, he forced a smile, "These islands were not taken from your country... Uh... this..."

It is far-fetched to say that it is not, because in fact, it is the battle between Japan and Germany that was taken from Germany after World War I, and Japan and Germany are hostile to each other. But now Germany has made a statement and King Minor Higakuramiya has lengthened his face.

"I won't talk about the right and wrong in the past. I'm not asking your country to settle old accounts. Germany's current claims are mainly old colonies, so I need an explanation for the country." Hoffman smiled, "We can't take away the territory or results of Japanese allies for vain. We will compensate. We can refer to the United Kingdom to ask for tanks, warships, and technology..."

King Minami Tokuramiya didn't want the atmosphere to be very staggering. Besides, the Germans also proposed to "buy". If the UK can buy it, France can talk, why can't Germany talk? He felt that he couldn't speak out in this way, so he changed his mind: "At present, they are important defense areas in the despise country. I want to go back and discuss with the ministers, and I must report to His Majesty."

"Of course, you can talk slowly if you don't have to hurry." Hoffman smiled and suddenly said something that made the other party frightened, "I heard that your country is in contact with the United States to make peace?"

King Minorhiko Higashiji wanted to deny it, but he knew it was inappropriate. Switzerland and Sweden were obviously more deeply penetrated, so how could it be hidden from Germany? He reluctantly smiled: "We heard that your country broadcasts a ceasefire to the United States every day and appeals for peace, so he also tried to contact it, but in fact it was just a test. Now the Eastern Expedition Fleet has set out and will launch an attack soon."

This counterattack is very sharp: Germany first proposed to reconcile, then Japan, and you see, I am still a smoke bomb, just to cover the fleet.

King Minami Tokuramiya didn't want to reveal the news that the peace talks were rejected by the United States, but he didn't know that Germany actually knew clearly that Switzerland spoke German and Sweden was a Nordic brother. What kind of turmoil could be hidden from the European overlord?

Hoffman didn't bother with these: "Peace is actually everyone hopes that the overall situation of axial victory has been decided, and peace will not suffer losses under the current situation. Do you agree?"

Of course, King Minorhiko Higashinomiya nodded: He dreamed of peace under the current situation, and now Japan is overwhelmed, and he most wanted to stop and carry out construction.

"Then the despised state proposes that both parties can seek peace through their respective channels, but should not destroy the Axis Alliance system."

"Of course, of course, I totally agree!"

The talks lasted less than half an hour before it ended. Hoffman personally sent King Minorhiko Higakimiya to the door, and then sent a company of guards to the Japanese Prime Minister back.

In order to create a security system, the German army ran Cairo in a mess, and a large number of troops withdrawn from the Eastern Front were mobilized to Africa (they will switch to South Africa after the meeting). Hoffmann was surrounded by the most elite 1944 guard flag team division, with three layers of inner layer of inner layer of inner layer of the Brandenburg unit, so as to avoid any surprises. Currently, there are more troops in Egypt than when they were fighting the British.

Hoffman asked Cole: "How much hope do you think my advice is?"

"It's hard to say. First, it depends on how Japan fights, and second, it depends on how you two honors Hori Teiki and Ishihara Kanir view this issue." Kerr smiled, "The one who decides Japan's major policies at present is neither the one in the palace nor the prime minister, but the unique system of coordination between the army and the navy."

This comment came to the forefront. Everyone brought him up to the position of Prime Minister of Higakuremiya Minorhiko, because he could represent the interests of the army and the navy to coordinate. If this is violated, nothing can be done. Apart from these, his status, reputation and identity are useful.

As expected, as soon as King Minor Higakuramiya got home from the hotel, he hurriedly called Hori Teiki: "Hirun, something is not good, Germany has set his sights on our territory in the Pacific..."

Hori Teiki was calm: "Are you asking for it or buying it?"

"Buy." Tokurimiya Minori looked at him strangely, "Do you know?"

"I guessed it." Horitiki replied lightly, "From the French negotiations to buy southern Indochina, I knew that there were Germans pushing behind them, and they were seeking a post-war layout."

"How to reply to this? It's too sad to directly refuse. If you don't refuse, how can you talk about it later? Many of them are in the absolute defense circle."

"What conditions did the head of state put forward?"

"I didn't say it, I just made it easy to discuss it, and we won't suffer a loss." He said the general scene of the Hoffmann talks in the first place, and then grabbed his hair in distress, "This is not easy to deal with, the Germans have too much appetite."

Hori Teiki listened to him patiently, and after careful consideration, he said, "The Head of State actually gave him a very important condition."

"What?"

“Sustain the Axis.”

"What is this? Isn't this the obligation of all countries?"

Hori Teiki shook her head: "Your Highness, you and I are not children anymore. It's good if you have heard of Xiaoxiao, but you can't be real."

King Minorhiko Higashinomiya nodded: "Yes, Germany has no reason to fight with the United States, and its strength is stronger than the United States, so it is still easy for them to get along."

"I guess the US peace talks with Germany must be underway, and there is a clause that means giving up Japan." Horitoyoshi said, "This condition cannot be agreed to by Germany, it must be destroyed..."

Although Hori Teiki said this hurts his self-esteem, but Tokuramiya Minorhiko is not a hot-headed man. He knew the severity and hurriedly said: "This is natural. Familiar with Europe is the most important purpose of participating in this meeting. The United States has closed the door to reconciliation, and Europe cannot have any more accidents."

Then the two took out the map and began to study the territories that Germany was preparing to claim.

On the eve of World War I, Germany had quite a lot of territory in the Pacific, including German New Guinea (including Emperor William's territory, Bismarck Islands, Solomon Islands, Bougainville Islands, Nauru, etc.), German Marshall Islands, German Samoa, Caroline Islands (including Truke, Palau, etc.), Mariana Islands and other places.

Horitiki pointed out: "This place can be divided into situations. German Samoa is currently occupied by New Zealand, which allows the Germans to negotiate directly, and we don't care. The Caroline Islands and Mariana Islands are the ruling land appointed by the League of Nations to Japan. There are important anchorages like Truke, so they must not be handed over. The status of the Marshall Islands is also very important, and they are the backbone of the absolute defense circle and cannot be handed over. The key is German New Guinea, the situation here is relatively complicated. Solomon Islands and Bougainville have been occupied by the United States, and we have no counterattack plan in the short term. I think we can give Germany to exchange for more materials and equipment that the empire needs. The key is Bismarck Islands and New Guinea, which are relatively large in area and have an important position..."

King Minorhiko Higashinomiya was an army and did not understand the geography of the Southeast Asian countries, but after reading the map, he basically figured it out. New Guinea is now the front line of confrontation between Japan and the United States, and Rabaul is also in it. His status is very important. Not only does it have a large number of navy, but also nearly 100,000 troops. The head of state came up and said nothing else, but only said New Guinea. It seems that he is determined to win.

He hesitated and said, "Don't give that?"

Horitiki shook his head: "It's not okay not to give it. If you don't give it, you don't give it, you don't give it. It's equivalent to directly rejecting the German proposal. New Guinea is the largest part of Germany's occupied territory. If you give this part but not other islands, you can barely say that you don't give anything. You're afraid it's hard to explain. The head of state is also a person who wants face."

King Minami Tokuramiya smiled bitterly. He could ignore the issue of face, but he dared not ignore the strength of Germany.

"Prime Minister, I feel that I will be punished by heaven in the future..."

"How could it be?" King Minami Tokurimiya said strangely, "Isn't this a discussion..."

"You know my attitude towards Australia and New Guinea, and I have always opposed the expansion there. Once New Guinea is handed over, our road to Australia and New Guinea will be broken. Do you know what this means?" Hori Teiki said, "I not only gave up New Guinea, but also clearly gave up Australia and New Guinea. What will the country think?"

Hearing Hori Teki say this, King Minamiya Minori also became serious and couldn't help but scream: "Does Germany want to control Australia and New Zealand?"

"Maybe, or maybe not." Horitiki smiled, "Now Britain is an ally of Germany, and Australia and New Zealand is the British dominion. To control Australia and New Zealand, Germany does not have to come forward in person. It is enough to carry the UK out... Oh, if you carry the London government out, there are now two Britains."
