"Your Excellency, we need the design drawings of the British aircraft carrier and aircraft, as well as related technical information. In addition, we urgently need the technical information of aero-engines." U.S. Secretary of the Navy Daniels looked eager.
These technologies are lacking in the United States. If they can be obtained from the British, they can save a lot of time and money.
"Aircraft carrier? There are still planes? As far as I know, the British don't have aircraft carriers. Although they also have planes, they are not the opponents of the Germans." President Woodrow Wilson said.
"Yes, Your Excellency. However, the British have already started research in this area. It's just that the current situation in the UK makes it impossible for them to build an aircraft carrier. But they have never stopped theoretical research. If We can get their technical data, which will save us a lot of effort," Secretary Daniels said.
"Well, Your Excellency, Secretary of State, when negotiating with the British, add this point!" President Woodrow Wilson said.
"Yes, Your Excellency." Secretary of State Bryan nodded.
"Your Excellency, it is best to get the British tank design drawings and technical data, especially the technical data of the engine." Secretary of War Garrison said.
"Secretary of State, we also want these things!" President Woodrow Wilson continued.
"Okay!" Brian recorded.
"Gentlemen? Is there anything else we need?" President Woodrow Wilson looked at the other cabinet ministers.
"Your Excellency, this time we support the British in such a way that we have undoubtedly taken a great risk. Therefore, we can make more demands on the British. For example, once we defeat the Germans, can the British Give us some colonies as a reward?" said Treasury Secretary McAdoo.
Americans are also salivating over the huge British colonies. The rise of the United States was too late, so that the major colonies in the world fell into the hands of European powers. Even if the United States won the Spanish-American War, it only took Cuba and the Philippines. So much so that they have to propose a portal development policy so that American goods can enter more markets. If the United States can have more colonies, then these are unnecessary.
Woodrow? President Wilson nodded, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity. The British are now cornered by the Germans. If the United States proposes these conditions, it is impossible for the British to refuse. In other words, they couldn't refuse at all.
"The colony is the lifeblood of the British, will they agree?" Brian frowned.
"Yes, if Germany can be defeated, the British Empire will rise again. Even if it can no longer become the world's hegemon, it will still be one of the world's major powers. Otherwise, Britain will be completely destroyed. Under such circumstances, the British have nothing It can be discarded. As long as we do not move the most core colonies of the British, the British should agree to our request." President Woodrow Wilson said.
"The core colonies of the British are mainly India, Canada, South Africa and Australia. Apart from these few places, I don't think the other colonies of the British are of much value." Bryan said.
Everyone knows that India is the most important colony of Britain and is known as the most shining diamond in the queen's crown. In addition, South African gold and diamonds, as well as other precious metals, have become an important source of income for Britain. Canada was about to become the place where Great Britain moved after the fall of the mainland. Australia has a large land area and a sparse population. Although it is very backward, its development potential cannot be underestimated. It can be said that as long as these colonies are in hand, Britain will not fall.
Of course, it is precisely because of this that other countries are eyeing the British colonies and want to **** the fat from the British.
When the British Empire dominated the world, even if other countries had such ambitions, they could only hide it in their hearts. The British Empire at that time was invincible.
However, it is different now. The British have lost a complete defeat in this war. If you can't even keep your own homeland, how can you care about those colonies!
However, this does not mean that other countries will be able to attack those colonies. Germany, which is about to win this war, is very likely to take over those colonies in full. If we go to **** those colonies at this time, wouldn't that be a tiger's mouth? At that time, the Germans will definitely attack them, how could they resist it!
"In addition to those few colonies, there are some colonies that are also good. For example, the Malayan colony, the Burmese colony, the colonies in the Middle East and those colonies in Africa. If you can get some from the British, it will be good for the United States The United States will be very beneficial!" McAdoo said.
"What about the Germans? The Germans will definitely declare war on us." Garrison said.
"We can reach an agreement with the British. After the Germans are defeated, those colonies will be transferred to us. If the Germans are not defeated, do we still have a chance to claim those colonies? Maybe we have already been defeated by the Germans. , Naturally, there is no such possibility. Signing the agreement with the British in advance is just for us to obtain greater benefits." McAdoo said.
Both Bryan and Garrison nodded. If they can defeat the Germans, then they won't have any problems occupying these colonies. If it is defeated by the Germans, then naturally there is nothing to say.
"Your Excellency, why don't we want colonies in the Middle East!" Secretary of Commerce Redfield said.
"Middle East? Isn't there a barren land?" Woodrow Wilson frowned.
"Your Excellency, although it is a barren land, there may be oil there. The British have already exploited oil in Persia. The Germans have also sent many people to investigate there. Therefore, we can be sure that there is extremely There may be huge reserves of oil. Now the importance of oil is increasing, if we can get more oil, it will make the United States of America invincible in the future." Redfield said.
"Well, let's make this request to the British!" Woodrow Wilson made a decision.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
