Hopkins knew that the islanders were coveting those colonies and were very covetous and could not give up. He also knew that the islanders made so many demands, but they were just talking to the lion.

However, for the sake of future interests, the United States will never be too much of the island countries and allow them to gain too much benefit. In that case, it will be very unfavorable to the United States. The US government does not hope that after finally defeating Germany, the island countries will rise again and become another great enemy of the United States. Therefore, they must do their best to prevent Germany's rise.

"Prime Minister, if we can defeat Germany, then South Asia can be handed over to your country. However, for other territories, your country should not think about it." Hopkins said.

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

Hopkins knew that the island country's military had a great influence in the government. If these guys were not satisfied, then many problems would definitely arise in the subsequent war. Once the final situation and the war failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Hopkins thought about it and thought that if Australia could be given to the islanders, it would almost be able to satisfy the appetite of the islanders. After all, if the island countries want to obtain these territories, they must defeat the Germans. Otherwise, everything would be nothing more than empty talk.

"Everyone, let's do this. The US government can agree that if Germany can be defeated, then the Southeast Asian countries will be incorporated into your country and become your territory. Australia will also be ruled by your country. But India is the most important colony of Britain and the British government cannot give it up." Hopkins said.

The important officials of the island's domestic cabinet whispered and the result had already met their psychological expectations. Therefore, they were quite satisfied.

"Empress Envoy, where is the Middle East? We need a lot of oil!" said Fumiko Kono.

"The oil in Nanyang is enough for island countries to use. Your country cannot use oil in the Middle East at all. Besides, I can tell you clearly that the British government has promised to hand over the Middle East to the US government for jurisdiction after the war is over. However, I can make the decision. If your country does lack oil, the US government will sell oil to your country at a low price. Even your country's capital can participate in oil development in the Middle East." Hopkins said.

Fumiko Koe nodded. This result was undoubtedly satisfying him. If the oil reserves in Nanyang were astonishing, the island country would not lack oil in a short period of time. After all, most of the oil in the island country is consumed by industry and the military, and the number of private motor vehicles is very low and it will not consume much oil. Even if it is to develop in the future, it will be a matter of decades.

"However, Your Excellency Prime Minister. Your country must ensure that you try your 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 the loss in the end. Once the war is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Hopkins reminded with a serious face.

If the islanders dare to play tricks in the war, the US government will inevitably use this as an excuse to repent after the war is over. At that time, it will be unlikely that the islanders will want to gain so much more benefits.

"Of course, your envoy, we are very clear about what kind of war we will face next. Germany is our unimaginable enemy of life and death. We will definitely defeat Germany with all our might. Because if Germany cannot be defeated, it will definitely be ours who will be destroyed in the end!" said Fumikoto.

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

"Your Excellency, our government has another requirement." said Motori Konoe.

"What requirements?" Hopkins looked very confident. He had expected that in addition to territorial requirements, the islanders would definitely have other requirements. After all, this is a desperate war to fight against the fate of the country!

"In terms of the distribution of post-war war reparations, our government believes that we must obtain at least 30%!" said Fumiko Komsu.

Hopkins couldn't help but frowned. He didn't expect that the islanders would actually take their 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 was precisely because of these war reparations that Germany once again achieved rapid development in more than 20 years after the war. This made other countries lose hope of competing with Germany, so they had to unite to deal with Germany.

There is no doubt that if Germany can be defeated this time, the victorious countries will slaughter the Germans and plunder enough war reparations. However, the US government is determined to win this war reparations. After all, the US government has long been in high debt. Those who provide support to other countries also need to spend money! They are also counting on plundering enough wealth from the defeated Germany to save the US economy that is about to collapse.

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

Next, Fumiko Koe and Hopkins began bargaining, and they were like vendors in the vegetable market, going forward and backward. After a fierce confrontation, they set the amount at 20%. This amount was just meeting the island country's expectations.

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

The United States and the island countries have reached a completely agreement. Both countries hope that they can have a pleasant cooperation in the future war.
