Chapter 1813 Three Kingdoms Charter

April 28, Washington. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as An Yi's plane arrived at the naval airfield on the right bank of the Potomac River, it was sent into the White House conference room by a motorcade that had come to greet him.

Roosevelt, who was in a wheelchair, was still smiling and seemed to be full of confidence in everything, while Churchill, whom An Yi saw for the first time, was a fat man with a big belly and a face full of meat.

Seeing An Yi walk into the room, Churchill sat arrogantly on the sofa with a cigar in his mouth, motionless, and looked at An Yi with extreme contempt. When he saw An Yi and Roosevelt greeting each other, Churchill couldn't help but say in a mean and mocking tone:

"Yo, is this the head of the warlord state that thrived by sucking the blood of the British Empire? The milky smell has not dried, it is really better to meet than to be famous! ”

An Yi immediately-for-tat: "Ah, some people don't speak, I thought it was a big fat pig in the zoo who ran out!" Alas, with a fat guy leading a weakened country, it's no wonder that the once sunset empire will lose to the ground......

Seeing Churchill's flushed fat face, An Yi's heart was full of happiness, and he continued to sarcastically: "Some people with pig heads, corpses and vegetarian meals, were successively *** by Germany, the Soviet Union and the *** army, and they didn't dare to go to the victim, but they could only vent their long-term accumulated anger on irrelevant people, and mock the heroes and heroes who rescued the occupied areas from the abusers, I finally saw what is called gentlemanly demeanor today!" ”

"You—" Churchill glared angrily, "what a hero, I have only seen a robber, a thief who has been complacent after stealing someone else's territory!" ”

"It's simply a distortion of the facts, referring to the deer as a horse!"

Under Roosevelt's complicated gaze, An Yi walked straight to the opposite side of Churchill, sat down with a golden sword, and said in a contemptuous tone:

"I hope that a certain gentleman will understand that not a single cent of the territory that we now possess in South China has been taken from the British...... The Persian Gulf, which we now occupy, was taken from the Soviet and Japanese armies, and Afghanistan and the West Indies were acquired from the Soviet-backed local warlord Sheng Shicai. Even if the East Indies, Burma, and Malaya were to be occupied in the future, they would have nothing to do with the British Empire. ”

"Humph! Ridiculous! The places you mentioned are all colonies and dominions of the British Empire, and we will never let them go unchecked! We have well-deserved sovereignty over those regions! Churchill said in a tough tone.

"Sovereign!? Well deserved? ”

An Yi smiled coldly: "If you really want to talk about sovereignty, all the countries in Southeast Asia used to be vassal states of China, and morally speaking, maybe the Chinese are the real masters of these regions!" A hundred years ago, some rogue countries knocked on China's door and usurped China's ownership of the above countries and regions!

"I don't know how this kind of behavior is different from today's Germany and ***, I only know that these places are now all controlled by *** people, and the more *** people have, the more pressure the world's anti-fascist forces will bear! Our South Chinese army resisted more than 3 million Japanese troops in Asia, and suppressed the Japanese army in the Far East and East Indies and could not move!

"It is precisely because of the brave performance of our army that the conspiracy of the Japanese army and the German army to join forces in India and West Asia did not succeed, and from this point of view, it is absolutely indisputable that South China, which undertook the main combat mission against Japan, has complete right to dispose of the occupied and recovered land!"

"History and reality are two very different things! If we talk about the historical attribution, all the land of America is owned by the Indians, but will President Roosevelt ask those people to come back and be the masters? In the same way, since the Qing government ceded power in Southeast Asia, why should we give it up? ”

When Churchill said this, he glanced at An Yi coldly: "Finally, I ask some people not to be alarmist, I have been dealing with Germany for so long, how come I don't know that *** and Germany have plans to meet in India and West Asia?" ”

"Just because you don't know something doesn't mean it doesn't exist!"

An Yi glared back at Churchill with disdain, turned his head to Roosevelt and said: "Mr. President, I don't explain the specific source of the information I get, but only analyze a simple fact - if it weren't for our South China blocking the road of the Japanese army's westward advance in East Siberia and West India, so that the *** people could smoothly occupy Central Asia, India and Iran, then *** could continuously draw troops to fight with Germany, and the situation in the entire Middle East and Africa would be a hundred times more sinister than it is now!"

"Take the situation in the Middle East at this moment, for example, just a small number of Japanese and German troops have already driven the Allies out of the Mediterranean coast. According to the latest information I have received, under the rapid attack of the Wehrmacht mountain troops, the Allied Entrenched Nagbu Ashtel Pass has been lost, and the Axis *** team has advanced all the way south along the valley of Mount Muhaimi, and captured the ports of Aqaba and Eilat yesterday evening, and the gateway to the Gulf of Aqaba in the Red Sea, located on the eastern shore of the Sinai Peninsula, has opened its doors to Germany.

"Now, the Axis *** is driving the Allied forces all the way south, and the Megana, Sheikh Humed, Shermai and other places in the Hejaz region of the Arabian Peninsula are about to be lost. Mr. Prime Minister, do you know what that means? Once the Germans build a military airfield on the east coast of the Red Sea, the entire Gulf of Suez and the central and southern regions of the Red Sea will be under the control of German land-based bombers, and German fighters will be able to monitor the Middle East, North Africa, and the Arabian Peninsula around the clock, and even Sudan, Ethiopia, Somalia, and other places in the confluence of the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden will also be under the threat of German fighters, and the situation in the entire Middle East and North Africa will inevitably deteriorate and erode!

"Please note! This was still a small number of Japanese troops and German troops. It's hard for me to imagine how surprising millions of Japanese troops would have been, in Europe and Asia, fighting in tandem with the Germans...... So, in a sense, our occupation of Persia and India is actually in the interests of the Allies as a whole. Even if we occupy Burma and Malaya in the future, we will strengthen the power of our allies, not our opponents! ”

"Full of nonsense, we have urgently dispatched reinforcements from Central Africa to attack North Africa and the Middle East, and the heroic royal army will definitely be able to regain the lost territory and drive the Germans out of the area around the Red Sea!"

Churchill said angrily: "We in the British Empire do not want you to send troops to recover the East Indies, Burma and Malaya. Even if we don't rely on you, we are confident that we can recover these territories. ”

An Yi looked at Roosevelt: "Mr. President, do you think Prime Minister Churchill's words were said by a sane person?" On the issue of war against Japan, do you really want me and my army to stand by and watch? ”

Roosevelt glanced at Churchill with some complaint, lost his usual smile on his face, and said with a solemn expression: "It is the correct decision for your country to attack the Japanese army on land is the correct decision that all the American people wholeheartedly support, and I personally express my absolute support!" Prime Minister, I have a proposal that our differences can be resolved slowly after the elimination of the fascist state in the future, not now.

"Since the year before, the people of our country have exerted all our strength, resources, and organizational abilities to save the world from the threat of domination, and to make it possible for the world to barely maintain its precious freedoms, namely, freedom of speech, freedom of belief, freedom from want, and freedom from terror. In the post-war world, we prefer that the people of various countries and regions decide their own destiny and future, that is, all nations have full national self-determination, rather than having the will of the great powers impose their will on others......"

Churchill couldn't help but feel depressed when he saw Roosevelt coming out for An Yi, and then thought that most of the territory of South China was newly incorporated into the territory, and if it was really national self-determination, then it was not his own family that suffered, so he made up his mind not to be busy expressing his stance first, and then choosing the opportunity to attack when An Yi violated the rules he personally participated in formulating in the future.

In the evening of the same day, the first formal summit of the heads of state of the United States, Britain, and China was held at the White House. At this meeting, Roosevelt suggested to Churchill and An Yi that the three countries jointly issue a joint declaration against the Axis powers. The next day, Churchill presented a draft that he and Hopkins had discussed on the battleship they had traveled on their way to the United States.

Hopkins was the author of Roosevelt's major manuscripts, and was invited by Roosevelt to live in the White House last May, and since then he has held such modest but extremely important positions as chairman of the arms distribution committee and a member of the wartime production committee.

Churchill's original manuscript said that the heads of state "thought it necessary to set forth certain principles, and agreed to use them as a guide for the formulation of policy, and on this basis, in the hope that the world would have a better future," and then listed these principles as five, almost all of which were for aid from the United States and for South China to declare war on Germany immediately.

An Yi immediately refuted that these principles were meaningless, and that they simply repeated a fact that already existed, contrary to President Roosevelt's advice.

Subsequently, Roosevelt, who was deeply disappointed, consulted with An Yi separately and drafted another draft, which was submitted to the meeting for discussion on the third day.

However, the article "the three countries seek to provide the peoples of all countries with access to the markets and raw materials necessary for their economic prosperity throughout the world, without discrimination and on equal terms," was strongly opposed by the British side, and Churchill said that this item affected the "Ottawa Agreement" on preferential tariffs within the British Commonwealth, could not unify the views of the various dominions and colonies, and should be abolished.

An Yi remained silent and waited to see what happened. U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Sumner. Wells vehemently opposed any concessions to accommodate the British view, but the pro-British Hopkins advocated that Roosevelt accept the British's view, arguing that the joint declaration of the three countries should be a consensus of the heads of state of the three countries, not only the interests of the United States. Roosevelt, after thinking about it and communicating with Churchill separately, finally decided to delete the words "non-discrimination" and add the reservation "to take due care of their existing obligations".

On 3 May, the heads of state of the three countries finally reached an agreement on the full text of the declaration. At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, Roosevelt, Churchill, and An Yi appeared together and announced to the reporters attending the press conference that in addition to discussing the issue of wartime supplies and the strategies to be adopted in response to Axis aggression, the three countries agreed to issue the following joint declaration:

The President of the United States of America, Mr. Roosevelt, the President of the Republic of South China, Mr. An Yi, and the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Mr. Winston Churchill, on behalf of His Majesty's Government of the United Kingdom, held a meeting in which certain principles acceptable to the three parties should be promulgated as common principles for the future national policy of the three countries, and accordingly hoped for a better future for the world.

First, the United States, China, and the United Kingdom fully respect the wishes of all countries, regions, and nations, and do not seek unjust territorial expansion.

secondly, the three countries oppose territorial changes that are incompatible with the freely expressed aspirations of the peoples concerned;

Thirdly, the three countries respect the right of the peoples of all countries to choose the form of government in which they live under their jurisdiction;

Fourthly, the three countries, with due regard to their existing obligations, seek to enable all nations, large and small, victorious or defeated, to trade and obtain raw materials throughout the world on equal terms and necessary for their economic prosperity;

Fifthly, the three countries are willing to promote full cooperation among all countries in the economic field, with the aim of improving labour standards, developing their economies and enjoying social security in all countries;

Sixthly, after the final destruction of fascism, the three countries wish to see the establishment of a peace in which the people of all nations may live and work in peace and contentment within their own borders, and that all inhabitants everywhere may live a life free from fear and want;

Seventh, such a peace should enable all men to sail unhindered on the common seas;

Eighth, the three countries believe that all countries of the world must renounce the use of force for spiritual and practical reasons, and that future peace cannot be maintained if any country continues to use land, sea and air weapons and continues to threaten or threaten aggression beyond its own borders.

In view of this, the three heads of State agreed on the need to disarm such States until a broader and lasting system of universal security is established, and that the three countries will sponsor and advocate all other practical measures to alleviate the heavy burden of armaments on peace-loving peoples.

In the ensuing discussion on the war cooperation between the three countries, the content involved the support of the US Navy in the Atlantic, the dispatch of an expeditionary force into Africa on the other side of the ocean, and the cooperation between South China and the United States in the Pacific to jointly combat aggression.

Since An Yi insisted that South China not declare war on Germany for the time being, the United States and Britain held separate talks to discuss the issue of military coordination between the two countries.

As this declaration was quickly rendered by the media of various countries as the guiding program of the Allies, and it was abbreviated as the "Charter of the Three Kingdoms", the purpose of the war against the fascist countries and the goal of rebuilding post-war peace for progressive democracy put forward in the declaration embodied the general principles of democratic politics at present and after the war, and played a positive role in promoting the formation of the international anti-fascist united front and the defeat of the German and Japanese invaders.
