Chapter 374: Drag Donghua into the water no matter what!

Even if he cursed Cheng Gong thousands of times in his heart, Churchill's smiling fat face would not reveal half of his true thoughts in his heart. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In addition to trying to persuade Donghua to join the Allies to participate in the war, Churchill also hoped to introduce advanced fighter technology from Donghua.

As we all know, the Donghua Empire has always been at the forefront of the world in the field of advanced fighter aircraft research and development. Although it is said that the United States, Britain, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the Soviet Union are also actively catching up in order to narrow the gap with Donghua. It's a pity that no matter how hard these countries try, they are always denied entry.

Beginning in 1938, the former Donghui Air Force entered two advanced research programs: Advanced Tactical Fighter and Concept Development Survey. At that time, Germany and Japan, which maintained friendly and cooperative relations with Cheng Gong, also followed the script and tried their best to study the concept of army building and development policy of the Donghua Air Force.

In this respect, Britain and the United States are not only lagging behind East China, but also have a certain gap with Germany and Japan.

In order to turn the tide of the war against the Allies, Britain and the United States formulated a cooperation plan for the joint development of advanced fighters. The Jian-5 fighter and turbojet-6 aero engines imported by the United States from Donghua are the basis of this plan.

However, the British royal family and the top brass of the Ministry of Defense have doubts about the cost estimate of the joint development of advanced fighter jets. In particular, the royal family believes that Britain should not list Donghua as an imaginary enemy at present, but should seize the time to work with the United States to thoroughly understand the plans of the turbojet-6 aero engine and the Jian-5 fighter.

Equipping the British Air Force with J-5 jet fighters one day earlier, so that the Luftwaffe planes would not dare to enter the English Channel again, is Britain's top priority at present.

British aircraft designers and aviation power experts have made it clear that even if the Jian-5 fighter and turbojet-6 aero engines are eliminated by the Donghua Empire, they are still the most advanced in today's world.

For countries that have never studied jet engines and jet fighters, it is already commendable to completely understand the technology of the J-5 and Turbojet-6, and they can only do nothing if they have more advanced technology.

However, as a good politician and military strategist, Churchill clearly thought deeper and farther than others.

The emergence of the Air Force has brought about a tremendous change in the traditional concept of naval tactics and strategy. The Royal Navy, the world's strongest navy, has fallen behind in this great transformation, and if it does not seize every possible opportunity to strengthen the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force, the revival of the British Empire will certainly become an empty phrase.

According to the standards of the Royal Donghua Air Force, jets are one generation more advanced than piston aircraft, subsonic jets are half a generation more advanced than jets, and supersonic jets are one generation more advanced than subsonic aircraft.

This means that the J-5 fighter and turbojet-6 jet engines imported by Britain and the United States from the Donghua Empire are a full generation and a half behind the F-4 Phantom fighter, the main aircraft of the Donghua Royal Air Force!

In the field of military technology, half a generation behind is an unbridgeable gap!

A generation and a half behind, this is like the British Empire when it used strong ships and cannons to bombard the Qing Dynasty, and Britain may face the threat of war from the Donghua Empire at any time!

Cheng Gong, the emperor of the Donghua Empire, once said in the international community that if you are backward, you will be beaten. At the beginning, China was backward, so it was turned round by the major powers, and we could only knock out our teeth and swallow blood in our stomachs. Because you can't blame anyone else, you can only blame yourself.

Whenever Churchill thought of Cheng Gong's words, he would feel a faint chill down his spine.

Britain is also lagging behind, will it also be beaten?

If Britain fails to achieve final victory in this world war, he Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever as the wartime prime minister of this war! Let him be a backward and beaten British Prime Minister, never!

Churchill's heart roared.

As long as the British Empire is not a defeated country in this world war, even if he is asked to pretend to be the third grandson in front of Cheng Gong, he will be wronged.

The current world pattern has become very clear, and the Donghua Empire has become the most critical factor in determining victory or defeat.

The Donghua Empire fell to the Axis powers, and the Allies were bound to lose. On the contrary, if the Donghua Empire joins the Alliance, the Axis powers will definitely lose!

In this world, except for a small country like Switzerland, which can adhere to the principle of neutrality, no military power will really abide by neutrality. Not to mention the world's first-class superpower like the Donghua Empire.

In Churchill's view, the reason why the Donghua Empire kept shouting for neutrality was only because they had not yet seen the bright spot in their interests.

When Germany swept Europe and Japan swept Asia, the Donghua Empire did not choose to join the Axis camp, which shows that the Donghua Empire did not believe that Germany and Japan could maintain such an invincible victorious posture forever.

Now, the United States, China and the Soviet Union have joined the Allied camp to participate in the war, and the Donghua Empire chose to launch economic sanctions against Japan at this time, which is obviously the Donghua Empire saw that three populous countries have joined the Allied Powers, and the Allied Powers have been in an undefeated situation in terms of war potential and strategic development.

Churchill had every reason to believe that the Donghua Empire could join the Allies in declaring war on Japan at any time!

Because only in this way is it in the best interests of the Donghua Empire.

As long as Japan is defeated, all of Southeast Asia, including the American Philippines, will become the sphere of influence of the Donghua Empire.

If Japan cannot be defeated, the connecting channel between Donghua and Huaxia will be controlled by Japan for a long time. In the long run, this is obviously not in line with the fundamental interests of the Donghua Empire.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, if Japan wins this war, Donghua should have nothing to gain in the Asia-Pacific region."

Churchill put down the flowers and plants in his hand, and the old god looked at Cheng Gong on the ground, and said with a smile: "With the close relationship between your country and China, I believe that your country will definitely not sit idly by and watch China become a defeated country and be enslaved by the Japanese and remain indifferent. ā€

"Hehe, talking to smart people is worry-free!" Cheng Gong generously gave Churchill a thumbs up, and said with a sigh: "You are right, no matter what happens in this war, I will not let China become a Japanese colony."

Mr. Churchill, I know very well what you think. I can also tell you unambiguously that Japan's resumption of war against China will be one of the greatest unforgivable mistakes they have made in this world war!

I once said that Donghua and Huaxia are two brothers in the same family! Fight tiger brothers, go into battle father and son soldiers. The essence of Japan's war of aggression against China is to infringe on the interests of our Great Donghua Empire in China! The reason why I have not participated in the war so far is because China has not officially declared war on Japan. ā€

"Your Majesty the Emperor, can I understand it like this?" Churchill looked at Cheng Gong seriously and asked, "Your country has decided to declare war on Japan?" ā€

"Hehe, you said this, I didn't say it." Cheng Gong smiled noncommittally: "Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival, must not be ignored." War is related to the life and death of the country, and I must think about the interests of the vast number of Donghua citizens, and we must be cautious. ā€
