Jagged Germany

   "Gentlemen, the US special envoy is coming soon. So, what should we ask of the Americans this time?" Konoe Fumimaro asked.

  Although, they are very clear that Americans have been raising the island country as a dog. However, they definitely don't want this to go on forever. Now the island nations have to take part in the war, but they want to be able to do so as allies. And after defeating the Germans, they can share the benefits they deserve. In this case, they will undoubtedly be able to satisfy them. After all, Germany is too powerful. Even if the island country can win this war, the losses it will pay will not be small. Therefore, they must fight for more interests for themselves.

"Your Excellency, after the war, if we can defeat the Germans, then Southeast Asia, Australia, and the islands occupied by Germany in the Pacific Ocean must belong to us! Only in this way can we have enough room for strategic maneuvering .Only in the future international society will we have the capital to confront the United States!" Foreign Minister Kazushige Ugaki said.

  Once Germany really falls, the United States will undoubtedly become the most powerful country in the world. In the Pacific Ocean, the island countries and the United States will have great confrontations and even conflicts because of their interests because of the absence of the threat of Germany. The mainland of the island country is too small and lacks resources, so there is little room for maneuver. But if they can win Nanyang and Australia, then their room for maneuver will be much greater.

   "That's right, Nanyang and Australia must be taken. This is what our soldiers snatched from the hands of the Germans through sacrifice. Those lands must belong to us." Seishiro Itagaki said.

  If Nanyang and Australia are combined, the territory is dozens of times that of the island country. Moreover, these areas are rich in resources, which have long made the islanders salivate. If the island country can occupy these territories, there is no doubt that the strength of the island country will be further improved. There may not be no chance of competing with the United States for hegemony in the future.

  Although, the island country has not yet joined the war, let alone defeated Germany. But this does not prevent them from starting to fantasize about what kind of benefits the island country will get after winning the victory.

"The United States should not refuse our request in order to let us participate in the war against the Germans. If possible, it is best to get India as well. The Germans are crazily plundering India's wealth and resources, which makes Germany In the past two decades, it has grown stronger. If we can occupy India, the take-off of the empire is just around the corner." Said Prime Minister Ikeda Chengbin.

  For India, this rich land, the island country is naturally coveted. It's just that their strength is relatively too weak, so that they have no way to occupy India at all, and can only drool on one side. Now, the opportunity has finally come. If Germany can be defeated, perhaps India can be snatched from the German rule.

   "We can use India as a condition for negotiating with the United States. However, it is estimated that the Americans will not agree." Konoe Fumimaro said. Although he is also eager to occupy India, he knows how unrealistic this requirement is.

   "We asked for a lot of money, and the Americans paid back the money when they landed. Let's talk to them first!" Ikeda Chengbin said.

   Konoe Fumimaro nodded.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, don't forget that after defeating Germany, you can claim huge war reparations from Germany and its allies. We must get a large part of this huge war reparation!" Ikeda Chengbin continued Said.

  The current island government is so poor that it is almost like pants. If Germany can be defeated, and then huge war reparations are extorted from the entire Allied member states, then they can not only pay off all foreign debts, but also have a lot left. At that time, they will have more money to develop the country's economy, which has already improved the living standards of the people. Although the islanders are tough in character, they can bear hardships and stand hard work. However, since the Meiji Restoration, they have been tightening their belts to support the government. It has been suffering for more than half a century now, if they are allowed to continue to suffer, the people will definitely not be able to accept it. In order to maintain the stability of the country's rule, they must make changes.

Konoe Fumimaro nodded: "We can discuss this issue with the Americans. This time we will be the main country fighting against Germany. Even if the Americans want a little more, we can at least get a quarter of the war reparations." Row."

  The main countries of this anti-German alliance are the United States, Russia, the Islands, and the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is lingering on its last legs and lacks strength. Naturally, it is impossible to obtain much war reparations. But the island government believes that they are the main force comparable to Russia. Therefore, they deserve a quarter or more. Of course, the United States, as the leading brother and also the master of the island people, received more war reparations after the war, which is also a matter of course.

"Your Excellency, in addition to the distribution of benefits after the war, the Americans also need to do their best to support us during the war. Once the war starts, the consumption of various resources will soar rapidly. We need enough steel and coal , oil and other resources. These resources are heavily dependent on the support of the Americans. If these materials are not supplied in time, this will seriously affect the combat effectiveness of our army. Therefore, this is absolutely the most important point." reminded.

   What I said before is the division of interests after the war, and there is a prerequisite, that is, Germany must be defeated. Only by winning against Germany can they share these benefits. If defeated, then naturally everything will be over. At that time, let alone those coveted benefits, even if you want to keep the country, it will become a delusion.

"Yes, winning this war is the most important thing. The warriors of the empire went to fight the Americans, and the Americans naturally had to ensure our supplies. Otherwise, how would we fight this battle?" Konoe Fumimaro said .

"Gentlemen, I know everyone's request. After the American ambassador arrives, I will have a meeting with him. I believe that the Americans will definitely agree to our request. As long as we can win in future wars Then, the future of the empire will be bright!" Konoe Fumimaro said.

   "The empire will win!" The ministers of these island countries also have infinite visions for the future.

  Among the expectations of the island government, the US special envoy Hopkins arrived in Tokyo on a transport plane converted from a B-17 bomber.
