Harry Hopkins, who returned to China to report his work, was shocked when he saw Franklin Roosevelt leaning against a wheelchair, his eyes closed and motionless. He thought that the strong American president could not stand the blows and fainted.

For Roosevelt, the recent days have been really hard. The originally planned route of "compromise with Japan, resistance to Europe and currency war" was broken by Germany's successful test of the atomic bomb.

Just a few days ago, the German Foreign Minister opened a "hand-off" on behalf of the entire European Community in Switzerland: requesting 500 billion European marks of war compensation unilaterally to return all property of the European Community countries in the United States to give up all investments and debts in the European Community countries and demand that the US military retreat from Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Bermuda, British Bahamas, British Honduras, British Trinidad and other places.

Such conditions are simply unacceptable! But the Germans dare to raise them now, which probably means that they really want to throw the atomic bomb on the heads of the American people!

While the Germans were asking for prices in a huge amount, Japan, which had already agreed to the United States' requirements for peace, also jumped the price and made the rude request of the United States to ced the Hawaiian Islands and the Aleutian Islands!

Obviously, these abominable Japanese devils are also preparing to use the German atomic bomb to slaughter the United States.

The Japanese demands were also unacceptable, not that Roosevelt could not accept, but that Truman and Dewey, who were running for president, could not accept them.

Because once a presidential candidate agrees to give the Hawaiian Islands and Aleutian Islands to the Japanese who once used bacterial weapons on the West Coast of the United States, no votes for candidates in the Midwest United States will be needed.

Therefore, once Roosevelt announced that he would accept the peace conditions of Japan, the two presidential candidates would definitely express their firm opposition as soon as possible. The two parties in Congress, in order to consider the election, would definitely express their same position.

Therefore, the Roosevelt administration can only grit the bullet and start a war on both sides, and if there is any carelessness, the atomic bomb will fall on the American people.

By then, Roosevelt will not only be the worst president in American history, but may be the culprit of the demise of the United States!

This was a huge blow to Roosevelt, who had been president for more than ten years and had been praised for most of his tenure. Faced with this blow, Roosevelt's already poor body became even more fragile. He contacted Mrs. Roosevelt's phone call and the Roosevelt family with extraordinary relationships. Hopkins learned that the president had fainted several times in mid-June, and the situation was very worrying.

"Harry," Roosevelt suddenly opened his eyes at this time, and attacked Hopkins, who was very thin and seemed to have some serious problems. "The negotiations with the Roman Empire have been made, right?"

"Yes, I finally got nothing." Hopkins smiled bitterly while sitting on a chair opposite Roosevelt, reporting his achievements in Europe. "I met Mussolini himself at the Venetian Palace in Rome, and he told me in person that Rome would make peace with us alone."

Speaking of this, Hopkins sighed softly: "But Mussolini said that in order to obtain a chance of peace, Rome had to lease the six most powerful battleships to Germany, and agreed to Germany to recruit volunteer soldiers on Rome's land. He hoped we could understand."

"Oh, of course we understand." Roosevelt smiled bitterly, "What else can we do? Are there more enemies of the Roman Empire? The United States has enough enemies to increase."

"President," said Hopkins, "the Roman Empire was our true friend Mussolini who handed me this file bag himself."

He placed a puff of kraft paper, without any marks, in front of Roosevelt.

"What is this?" Roosevelt asked strangely. He had not received any reports on this.

"It's all the information that the Roman Empire has about nuclear fission bombs." Hopkins lowered his voice, "A scientist from the Roman Empire who loves peace and justice hopes that we can create this bomb as soon as possible!"

There are no eternal friends in the world. Now, as the second largest country in Europe, the relationship between the Roman Empire and the European Community is conceivable. If the ultimate goal of the European Community is to unify the entire Europe, then it is only a matter of time before Rome is annexed!

The Roman Empire was simply unable to stop this process unless they could break Germany's nuclear monopoly. However, the nuclear physicists of the Roman Empire were very clear that Rome had neither electricity nor uranium, and even copper was not enough to be used as electromagnets, and it was impossible to create an atomic bomb within ten years.

So some nuclear physicists in charge of Roman atomic bomb engineering may also be Mussolini himself instructed to pin the hope of breaking Germany's nuclear monopoly on the Americans.

Roosevelt raised his eyebrows, but soon sighed: "It seems that the Romans were frightened by the German nuclear fission bombs, and with Rome's strength, they would not be able to create such a weapon in the short term, right?"

"I think so," Hopkins nodded, "Rome is too close to Germany, and the Romans must now be careful with their neighbors in the north."

Roosevelt reached out and patted the file bag on his desk and said, "I will send it to experts for research. I hope the information provided by the Romans can speed up our process."

In fact, Roosevelt did not have much hope because he had intelligence and knew that the Roman Empire had never conducted nuclear weapons research in the past. What they could master was nothing more than clues collected by the intelligence agencies. The same work was not done by the US Strategic Intelligence Agency and the British and Canadian military intelligence agencies.

"Is there any exciting news?" Roosevelt asked again.

“There is one with one good news.”

"What news?"

"The Soviet Union is going to be over."

"This is good news?" Roosevelt glanced at Hopkins, "and I've known it a long time ago."

"No, there are new changes now," Hopkins said. "The Japanese will attack the Soviet Far East, and Germany will acquiesce."

Roosevelt then showed a thoughtful look: "Is the news reliable?"

"Reliable!" Hopkins said, "It was the Soviet ambassador to Switzerland Mrs. Curente who personally told me that Germany and Japan had bargained for a long time for the ownership of the Soviet Far East. Finally, on the condition that Japan continued to fight with us and fought a decisive battle in the Hawaiian Islands, they acquiesced to Japan's sneak attack and seize the Soviet Far East. And both the Soviet Union and the Russian Empire already knew about this!"

"Is it the Soviet Far East that the sneak attack seized?" Roosevelt thought for a while and asked, "or is it the Russian Far East?"

"It's the Soviet Far East!" Hopkins said, "It's not the Russian Far East. Now Belarus is Germany's closest ally. If Japan seized the Far East land with the Russian tricolor flag, then Germany would inevitably declare war on Japan. Even if Hitler and Hessman had no interest in the barren land of the Far East."

At this time, the gate of the Oval Office was pushed open. Colonel Katun came in, and he saluted the president.

"Mr. President, the generals, the vice president and the secretary of state are waiting in the cabinet meeting room."

Roosevelt waved to Hopkins and said, "Harry, let's go together and tell everyone what you know."

The military meeting was held in the cabinet meeting room. When Roosevelt and Hopkins arrived together, four generals including William Leach, Ernestkin, Marshall, Arnold, as well as Secretary of State Hull, and Vice President Wallace were already waiting there.

When Hopkins saw Wallace, he immediately remembered Roosevelt's bad health. According to the American Constitution, the vice president is not allowed to have real executive powers. Only when the president is appointed with other rights can he exercise the relevant powers as the president's representative.

Now Vice President Wallace appears at the most important cabinet military meeting in the United States, obviously familiar with the situation, in order to take over the position of US president when Roosevelt was ill when necessary.

"Gentlemen," Roosevelt pointed to Hopkins beside him and said to everyone, "Good news, we have reached a peace agreement with the Roman Empire. Now the enemy is the only European Community and Japan, and Japan will be defeated by us soon!"

Without the European Community, Japan would definitely not have been able to survive for long, but it would be impossible for the United States and the European Community to reach a peace agreement.

"We must fight the Japanese out of war as soon as possible!" Roosevelt glanced at Hopkins, who was already sitting at the conference table, "Harry, tell me what you heard about the Soviet Far East in Rome."

"It is reported that Germany has accused Japan of occupying the Far East of the Soviet Union." Hopkins said, "But Japan can only seize the Far East from the Soviet Union, not from the Russian Empire."

Roosevelt's originally unsightly eyes suddenly showed a bit of sharpness, looking at the four generals in military uniforms: "Do you understand what this means?"

"This means that Japan must immediately make the choice to give up the Hawaiian Islands or fight us in a decisive battle with us." Admiral Marshall immediately answered the president's question, "Because the Soviet Far East is a high-altitude area, once the late autumn enters, the Japanese army will not be able to launch effective offensive operations, and the war will inevitably be delayed until next summer. During this period, the Russian Empress's government is likely to politically resolve the Siberia, Central Asia and Far East issues. And Russia's political unification means that Germany must intervene in the Far East conflict, which is a very fatal blow to Japan."
