"This shameless villain!"

Seeing the telegram sent back from Hong Kong, and seeing that Lu Yuan used despicable means to control the troops stationed in Hong Kong, forcing those imperial soldiers to confront the Japanese army on the front line, and in this way to ask themselves for planes and warships, the generals in the British Imperial War Department were furious and cursed.

Churchill was also pale-faced, and in the various agreements reached with Lu Yuan on Hong Kong, he did explicitly promise that Lu Yuan could assist Maldeshi in garrisoning Hong Kong when the Japanese army attacked Hong Kong - but it was by no means the current assistance method!

In his ideal plan, Lu Yuan's men and horses should fight the Japanese army to the death under the command of Mardeshi, and then reduce the casualties of the British Imperial soldiers as much as possible, and if necessary, even at the cost of sacrifice, to cover the evacuation of the Imperial soldiers.

But where would he have thought that as soon as Lu Yuan arrived in Hong Kong, he would seize the command of Hong Kong with a thunderous force, and the Mardeshi he had high hopes for was only at the mercy of others in front of Lu Yuan!

Damn the guys!

Churchill scolded, and he didn't know whether to scold Lu Yuan for his shamelessness or Mardeshi's incompetence, anyway, he felt that the agreement reached with Lu Yuan was absolutely cheated, which was much more serious than lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot - it was clearly to lure the wolf into the house.

If Lu Yuan dared to do this under normal circumstances, he swore that he would send the imperial army to fight Lu Yuan to the death at all costs.

But not right now.

Now the battle between the Allies and the Germans led by the British Empire is in full swing, and the American allies he has been looking forward to have been watching the fire from across the strait and disdainful of his request for assistance, he tried his best, but Roosevelt's old fox just stood still, angry with his teeth itching but there was no way to ask for it with a shy old face.

But now it was different, the Japanese launched an attack on Pearl Harbor, the British colony and Hong Kong at about the same time, and the loss of Pearl Harbor was even more terrible.

Wherever the Japanese attacked, they were all defeated, but Hong Kong, under the command of Lu Yuan, not only did not rout, but gave the Japanese a head-on blow!

This made him see hope, the hope that the Yankees, who had been sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight and reaping the benefits, would be drawn into this whirlpool of war!

"Be quiet!"

Churchill spoke amid the curses and denunciations of all the generals against Lu Yuan: "Is it certain that the ships forcibly requisitioned by Lu Yuan include the US gunboat Mindanao High?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister!" A cadre of generals said.

This bastard, it's really bold!

Churchill cursed in his heart, and then continued: "Very good - the United States of America has always been the most solid ally of our British Empire, this time the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, so our allies suffered heavy casualties, how can our British Empire sit idly by?" ”

"What's more, the Japanese also attacked Malaysia, India, and Hong Kong, and the soldiers of our British Empire suffered heavy casualties, and we can't sit idly by!"

"The rest of the places were devastated, but Hong Kong was the only one that dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese......"

As he spoke, Churchill stared, but he also had a bit of a hawkish look, and said fiercely: "Tell Lu Yuan that I, Churchill, gave him the power to fully command the Hong Kong campaign, defend Hong Kong, strike hard at the Japanese invaders, avenge the soldiers of my American allies who died in a sneak attack, and avenge the soldiers of our British Empire who died under the attack of the Japanese army, and hope that he will use a big victory to crush the Japanese ambition to unify East Asia......"

"At the same time, I would like to convey to His Excellency Roosevelt that I, Churchill, express my deep condolences for the tragedy of Pearl Harbor, and that I, the British Empire, am willing to join the United States of America in forming an alliance with all the countries that have suffered miserably in the war against the Axis of Evil headed by Germany, Italy, and Japan, and to seek a great victory for justice......"

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, wise!"

Hearing this, all the generals who were originally angry shouted in unison and became excited.

Churchill's words are equivalent to pulling the Yankees who want to watch the fire from the other side into the water, and at the same time solving the problem of Lu Yuan - Lu Yuan, the Chinese people, coerced the great imperial soldiers against the Japanese, which is unacceptable to them - this simply shows that the imperial generals such as Mard Hiberwaltz are incompetent!

However, if Lu Yuan had been appointed by Prime Minister Churchill, it would have been different - this is the Prime Minister's promise to be wise and wise!

In this way, the faces of the old British gentlemen have been preserved, and the precarious war situation on the side of the empire has immediately improved because the Yankees have to participate.

Kill two birds with one stone.

"Then, should we give the warships and fighters that this guy Lu Yuan wants?" The Secretary of State said.

"It must be given, but how to give it will have to be discussed with President Roosevelt!"

Churchill said: "Hong Kong's blocking of the Japanese army is also part of the Allied front's campaign against the core countries, and it is also to avenge the tragic death of their Americans at Pearl Harbor. ”

Roosevelt is now mad, his expression is like a peerless master who thinks he is invincible in the world and no one to mess with is suddenly slapped in public, gritting his teeth and trying to take revenge, but the enemy can't find it for a while, and there is nowhere to vent the fire in his belly.

Churchill's phone call allowed Roosevelt to find a way to vent his bad anger first and collect some interest from the Japanese first.

On December 10, 1940, the day after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, India, Malaysia and other places, they telegraphed to the world and declared war on Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union.

Hitler, Mussolini then informed the world that Germany, Italy and Japan formed an alliance and declared war on the Soviet Union, Britain and the United States!

Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union then declared an all-out war on Germany, Italy, and Japan!

On behalf of China, Chairman Chiang announced to the whole world that war was declared on Japan, Germany, and Italy!

After nearly 10 years have passed since the Japanese army invaded Northeast China in 31 years, most of the country's territory has fallen to the enemy, and tens of millions of compatriots have died in the war, China has finally declared war on the Japanese.

Japan, Germany, and Italy did not pay any attention to the chairman's declaration of war, because Japan's aggression against China had long been an established fact, because in their view, the chairman's declaration of war was just a political routine for self-preservation, and of course this was indeed the case.

Chairman Chiang was very humiliated, because he declared war on Germany, Italy and Japan on behalf of the country, and the three countries actually chose to ignore it, which was definitely a very humiliating thing for him - but no one paid attention to it.

A poor and weak country is not even qualified to receive a declaration of war.

In this way, in World War II, China, which had been poisoned by the war for the longest time and suffered the largest number of casualties, became a member of the all-out war in such a humiliating way.

On this day, World War II broke out in full force.

Although in Asia, Europe, the flames of war have been burning for many years.
