"Your Excellency, we need the British's aircraft carrier design drawings and aircraft design drawings and related technical information. In addition, the technical information of aero engines is also urgently needed. U.S. Secretary of the Navy Daniels looked eager.

These technologies are lacking in the United States, and if they can get them from the British, they will be able to save a lot of time and money.

"Aircraft carriers? And airplanes? As far as I know, the British don't have aircraft carriers. Although they also had planes, they were no match for the Germans. President Woodrow Wilson said.

"Yes, Your Excellency. However, the British have already begun research in this area. It's just that the current situation in Britain makes it impossible for them to build aircraft carriers. But in theory, they never stopped. If we can get their technical information, it will save us a lot of effort. Minister Daniels said.

"Well, Your Excellency, add that to your negotiations with the British!" President Woodrow Wilson said.

"Yes, Your Excellency." Secretary of State Brian nodded.

"Your Excellency, the British tank design drawings and technical data, especially the technical data of the engine, are also in their hands." Secretary of War Garrison said.

"Your Excellency, we want these things too!" President Woodrow Wilson continued.

"Okay!" Brian took notes.

"Gentlemen? Is there anything else we need? President Woodrow Wilson looked at the other cabinet ministers.

"Your Excellency, this time we have undoubtedly taken a great risk by supporting the British in this way. So, we can ask more of the British. For example, once we have defeated the Germans, can the British transfer some of their colonies to us as a reward? Treasury Secretary McAdoo said.

Americans are also salivating over Britain's vast colonies. The United States rose so late that the world's major colonies fell into the hands of European powers. Even if the United States won the Spanish-American War, it only robbed Cuba and the Philippines. So much so that they had to come up with a gateway development policy so that American goods could enter more markets. If the United States could have more colonies, none of that would be needed.

President Woodrow Wilson nodded, this is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity. The British have now been cornered by the Germans. If the United States had made these conditions, the British would not have been able to refuse. Or rather, they simply can't refuse.

"The colonies are the lifeblood of the British, will they say yes?" Brian frowned.

"Yes, if Germany can be defeated, the British Empire will rise again. Even if it can no longer become a world hegemon, it is still one of the world's major powers. Otherwise, Britain would be completely destroyed. In such a situation, the British could give up everything. As long as we don't touch the colonies at the heart of the British, the British should accede to our demands. President Woodrow Wilson said.

"The core colonies of the British were mainly India, Canada, South Africa and Australia. Aside from these few places, I don't think the other colonies of the British are of much value. Brian said.

Everyone knows that India is the most important British colony and is known as the most sparkling diamond in the Queen's crown. In addition, South Africa's gold and diamonds, as well as other precious metals, have become an important source of income for the UK. Canada was about to become a place to move after the fall of the British mainland. Australia is vast and sparsely populated, and although it is very backward, its development potential should not 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 snatch these fat from the mouths of the British.

When the British Empire dominated the world, other countries, even if they had such ambitions, could only hide them in their hearts. At that time, the British Empire was invincible.

However, this is no longer the case. The British had already lost the war. I can't even keep my own territory, where can I take care of those colonies!

However, this does not mean that other countries will be able to attack those colonies. Germany, which was about to win the war, was very likely to take over the colonies in their entirety. If you go to rob those colonies at this time, won't it be a tiger's mouth? The Germans will inevitably attack them at that time, how can they resist it!

"In addition to those few colonies, there are some colonies that are also good. For example, the colonies of Malaya, Burma, the Middle East, and Africa. It would be very advantageous for the United States of America if it could get some from the British! McAdoo said.

"And what about the Germans? The Germans will definitely declare war on us. Garrison said.

"We can make a deal with the British, and when the Germans have been defeated, the colonies will be transferred to us. If the Germans had not been defeated, would we still have a chance to claim those colonies? We may have already been defeated by the Germans, so naturally there is no such possibility. The signing of the agreement with the British in advance is just for the sake of our greater benefit. McAdoo said.

Brian and Garrison both nodded, if they could defeat the Germans, then they would have no problem occupying these colonies. If it was defeated by the Germans, then naturally there was no need to say anything.

"Your Excellency, you want colonies in the Middle East!" Commerce Secretary Redfield said.

"The Middle East? Isn't it a barren land? Woodrow Wilson frowned.

"Your Excellency, although it is barren land, there may be oil there. The British were already extracting oil in Persia. The Germans also sent a lot of people to investigate it. So, we can be sure that there is a high probability that there is a huge amount of oil there. Oil is becoming more and more important, and if we can get our hands on more oil, it will make the United States of America invincible in the future. Redfield said.

"Well, we'll make this request to the British!" Woodrow Wilson made the decision.
