Harding was also a person who loved to have fun and was very interested in Hans’s airship.
The airship was not born very long ago. From its first flight in 1900 to its use in the war in 1914, it has only been in people’s sight for a short period of more than 20 years, and it has only been really famous for ten years.
So for the people of North America, this thing is a very fresh and eye-catching existence!
Even their president is no exception!
After meeting Ribbentrop, President Harding didn’t care about other things. He even forgot to say the usual greetings and asked Ribbentrop about the airship.
“Mr. Ribbentrop, can this airship be sold?”
President Harding received a lot of political donations during his last election, so he had a lot of savings.
He was very interested in the airship brought by Ribbentrop, so he wanted to buy it for his own use.
After hearing what President Harding said, Ribbentrop was stunned for a moment, wondering what the other party meant by this sentence?
“Uh, Mr. President, this airship does not belong to me personally. I only have the right to use it, not the ownership. So I personally cannot decide who owns it. You asked the wrong person about this matter!” The diplomats spoke very skillfully. When they met someone they had a good relationship with, even if they wanted to refuse the other party’s request, they would be more tactful in their words, trying their best to save the other party’s face and not hurt the relationship between them.
So if a person with normal thinking was here and heard Ribbentrop’s words, he should understand what he meant. Ribbentrop’s implication was that the airship was not for sale. Saying that it was not his and that he had no control was just an excuse.
However, President Harding bypassed the link of the Minister of State’s reception of diplomatic envoys and personally entertained Ribbentrop. At this time, his mind seemed to be full of Zeppelin airships, so he turned a deaf ear to Ribbentrop’s words, and it seemed that he did not hear Ribbentrop’s implication at all.
“Is that so? If I want to buy this airship, who should I look for?”
Ribbentrop’s eyes widened in surprise. He was very surprised by the reaction of the Eagle Sauce President. He had clearly rejected the other party, so why did the other party continue to chase him?
“Well, this airship actually belongs to our president’s private property. I am just borrowing it temporarily. If you want to buy this airship, maybe you should try to ask President Mainz for his opinion!”The
Zeppelin airship is not only of important value in the civilian field, but also of great strategic significance in the military field. So in order to make the other party give up, Ribbentrop directly pushed the matter to his own president.
He thought that if he reported Mainz’s name, the other party would retreat!
However, Ribbentrop took it for granted. His idea might work for ordinary people, but the person he faced was not an ordinary person, but President Harding, whose mind was different from others! President Harding
‘s brain circuit was really different from that of ordinary people, so after hearing this, he not only did not notice Ribbentrop’s implication, but was even overjoyed, thinking that he had finally found a person with whom he could confirm the transaction. So, he directly left Ribbentrop behind and excitedly asked his assistants to formally present the USS to President Hans as the Eagle Sauce President. Mainz sent a telegram asking for the price of the airship!
Ribbentrop was stunned watching from the side!
Is there such an operation?
Strange knowledge has increased!
Ribbentrop began to be curious: What would be the expression on President Mainz’s face after receiving the telegram from President Eagle Sauce, who was thousands of miles away?
It’s a bit curious to think about it!
At this time, Mainz, who was far away in Berlin, had received a telegram from President Harding.
Originally, telegrams between countries like this were generally very formal. Both sides would do low-level exchanges and communications in advance, and then the main generals would upgrade the level of communication, and finally it would be the turn of each other’s heads of state to come forward.
There was absolutely no such thing as President Harding, who was so impulsive that he directly omitted several of the previous steps and directly sent it to the highest head of state of another country in his own name!
And the most speechless thing is that this guy used a plain code, which means no encryption. Yes, everyone who received this signal can intercept the content of the telegram!
This made Mainz quite speechless!
“Are the people in the White House just eating and drinking? Why don’t they even use a password?”
As the leader of the SS, Himmler attached great importance to intelligence work, so when he heard that the president of the Eagle Sauce actually sent a telegram to his own president Mainz in plain text, Himmler was completely stunned!
He had never seen such a situation in his life!
Not to mention that he had seen it, even Tingdou had never heard of it!
President Harding was so weird that it was beyond the cognition of normal people!
Compared to the puzzling Himmler, Mainz thought that President Harding’s stupid behavior was quite normal!
If it were any other president, Mainz might be a little surprised, but if the object was President Harding, he would not be surprised at all!
After all, among the most unpopular or worst presidents voted by the Eagle Sauce people themselves, President Harding was on the list and ranked second!
This guy, no matter what he did, Mainz would think it was normal!
Moreover, plain text telegrams actually have advantages The advantage is that President Ying Sauce personally sent a telegram to President Hans. Even if Hans did not publicize this news, it would be intercepted by other countries at the first time.
After intercepting this intelligence, how will the countries react? This is a very interesting thing!
Perhaps, in the eyes of the British and the Gauls, President Ying Sauce’s blatant telegram to President Hans may be a blatant display of the close relationship between the two countries, deliberately done for them to see?
At this time, the British and the British are competing for world hegemony, and Hans is the third largest country in the world. Their attitude is crucial. In this case, if the personal relationship between the President of the British and the President of Hans is good, it will be of great help to win over Hans to stand on the side of the British and support the British!
Therefore, the British may think that this unencrypted telegram was deliberately sent by the British, with the purpose of showing them the relationship between the British and Hans, and then deterring and threatening the British!
“What was written in the telegram?”
Although Mainz was very interested in the reactions of the British Empire and the Gauls, what he was most interested in at this moment was what President Harding described in the telegram!
What kind of emergency did this guy have that he didn’t even have time to encrypt the telegram and sent it directly?
“Well……”
Secretary Bowman looked a little embarrassed. He looked at the contents of the telegram and didn’t know where to start.
Mainz raised his eyebrows. To be honest, he rarely saw Secretary Bowman looking so helpless, so this made him even more curious!
What did President Harding write in the telegram?
“”Give it to me!”
Mainz reached out and took the telegram from Secretary Baumann.
After taking a look at the contents of the telegram, Mainz was also stunned!
“That’s it?”
Secretary Bormann and Himmler looked at each other and nodded.
That’s it. The content of the telegram was very brief and I read it at a glance.
“Is such a trivial matter worth sending a special telegram?”It was as if a thousand alpacas were running wildly through Mainz’s heart. Although he knew that President Harding was a weird president, he did not expect that the other party was so weird. This was a bit too weird! The telegram sent by President Harding to Mainz only contained a simple sentence: Can you sell me Ribbentrop’s Zeppelin airship?
Seeing Mainz’s speechless expression, the man with a mustache came over to take a look, then smiled and said,”Isn’t this good? The president of the Eagle Sauce People is so stupid and incompetent. Isn’t this exactly what we want?”
What he said makes sense. After thinking about it, everyone nodded.
Let the Eagle Sauce maintain this situation and let President Harding stay in the presidency for a few more years. This was a plan Mainz had made a long time ago. He had never concealed it from anyone, so almost all the core members around him knew about this arrangement.
At this time, seeing President Harding stepping on the accelerator and rushing along the strange road with no intention of stopping, everyone felt that this was also good. At least the Eagle Sauce would not be able to develop in the next few years!
“President, how should we respond to them?”
“Should we sell the airship or not?”
Both Secretary Bormann and Himmler looked at Mainz, waiting for him to make a decision!
“Sell, of course, and sell it at a high price!”
The technical content of airships is not high. Since someone is willing to buy it, Mainz is naturally happy to make money!
As for the military use of airships, Mainz didn’t care too much. After all, Hans has begun to develop fighters and heavy bombers. The role of airships is limited and will soon be completely eliminated!
“OK, then I will call the Eagle Sauce people back right now!”
“Wait, use plain text when you call back!”
Mainz suddenly said, Himmler was stunned.���For a moment, he immediately reacted!
The president is setting a trap for the British and the Gauls!
