Chapter 1231 happy cooperation

Hopkins knew that the islanders coveted those colonies very much, and it was impossible to give up. He also knew that the islanders had made so many harsh demands, but they were just talking to the lion.

However, for the sake of future interests, the United States will definitely not be too many island countries and let them get too many benefits. In that case, it will also be very detrimental to the United States. The U.S. government does not want the island country to rise to become another great enemy of the United States after finally defeating Germany. Therefore, they must do their best to prevent the rise of Germany.

"Your Excellency, if we can defeat Germany, then Nanyang can be handed over to your country. However, your country should not think about other territories." Hopkins said.

"Your Excellency, this is very unfair to us. In this war, we will devote all our strength and even mobilize more than six million troops. For this reason, we deserve more benefits!" Itagaki Seishiro said .

Hopkins knows that the military of the island country has a very large influence in the government. If these guys cannot be satisfied, then there will definitely be many problems in the next war. Once it affects the final battle situation and leads to the failure of the war, the consequences will be disastrous.

Hopkins thought about it, and he thought that if Australia could also be given to the islanders, it would almost satisfy the appetite of the islanders. After all, if the island country wants to acquire these territories, it must defeat the Germans. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk.

"Everyone, how about this, the US government can agree that if Germany can be defeated, then Nanyang will be incorporated into your country and become your country's territory. Australia will also be ruled by your country. But India, this is the most important colony of Britain, There's no way the British government will back it down," Hopkins said.

The important ministers of the island's cabinet whispered to each other, and this result has met their psychological expectations. So, it still makes them feel satisfied.

"Your Excellency, what about the Middle East? We need a lot of oil!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

"The oil in Nanyang is enough for the island countries. The oil in the Middle East is completely useless for your country. Besides, I can tell you very clearly that the British government has promised that the Middle East will be handed over to the US government after the war. Yes. However, I can make the decision. If your country really lacks oil, the U.S. government will sell oil to your country at a low price. Even your country’s capital can participate in the oil development in the Middle East.” Hope Kings said.

Konoe Fumimaro nodded, no doubt he was very satisfied with this result. If the oil reserves in Nanyang are astonishing, then the island country will not lack oil in a short period of time. After all, most of the island country's current oil is used for industrial and military consumption, and the number of private motor vehicles is very low, so it will not consume much oil. Even if it develops in the future, it will be decades later.

"However, Your Excellency the Prime Minister. Your country must ensure that it will do its best in this war. The US government does not want anyone to preserve their strength in the war. Because in that case, everyone will suffer in the end. Once you lose If there is a war, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Hopkins reminded with a serious face.

If the islanders dare to play tricks during the war, the US government will inevitably use this as an excuse to regret it after the war. At that time, it will be impossible for the islanders to reap so many benefits.

"Of course, Your Excellency, Special Envoy, we are very clear about what kind of war we will face next. Germany is our sworn enemy, and we will definitely do our best to defeat Germany. Because, if we cannot If we defeat Germany, we will be the last to be destroyed!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

Hopkins nodded, it would be great if the islanders could do their best to fight this war. With the military strength of the island country, it is enough to cause Germany a lot of trouble. This is also the reason why the US government has been pampering the island countries. Otherwise, they will never support the island country again and again.

"Your Excellency Special Envoy, our government has one more request." Konoe Fumimaro said.

"What request?" Hopkins looked very confident. He had also expected that apart from territorial requirements, the islanders would definitely have other requirements. After all, this is a desperate war to take the fate of the country!

"In terms of the distribution of war reparations after the war, our government believes that we should get at least 30%!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

Hopkins couldn't help frowning, and he didn't expect the islanders to pay attention to this aspect.

After the last world war, Germany won the war and plundered a large amount of war reparations from the defeated countries. It is precisely because of these war reparations that Germany has been able to achieve rapid development again in the past two decades after the war. This made other countries have lost hope of competing with Germany, so that they had to unite against Germany.

There is no doubt that if Germany can be defeated this time, the victorious country will also ruthlessly slaughter the Germans and plunder enough war reparations. However, the U.S. government is determined to win this war reparation. After all, the U.S. government is already deeply in debt. The support provided to other countries also requires money! They were also counting on looting enough wealth from a defeated Germany to heal America's collapsing economy.

"Thirty percent is too much, and the U.S. government cannot agree. After all, the U.S. also paid a huge price in this war," Hopkins said.

Next, Konoe Fumimaro and Hopkins began to bargain, and the two were like hawkers in the vegetable market, you advance and retreat. After a fierce confrontation, they set the number at twenty percent. This amount is only just meeting the expectations of the island nation.

Hopkins can be regarded as accepting these conditions proposed by the islanders, which made the islands very satisfied. Especially when Hopkins asked for instructions domestically, President Roosevelt approved Hopkins' request, and fully agreed to the request to give Nanyang and Australia to the island countries after the war, and at the same time allocate 20% of the war reparations.

The United States and the island countries have reached a complete agreement. Both countries expect that they can have a pleasant cooperation in future wars.
