Chapter 591: Theater Division

Churchill jumped up and down and pulled allies everywhere from the beginning of the war, even putting aside the face of the British Empire, and the United States was undoubtedly the most important of all allies. Churchill often flew across the Atlantic, ran to Roosevelt upside down, and discussed everything with Roosevelt, and before the United States officially declared war, Churchill and Roosevelt came up with a so-called Atlantic charter.

In order to gain the support of the United States, Churchill has reached the level of flattery, once when Roosevelt went to visit Churchill, Lao Qiu was taking a bath, he actually greeted Roosevelt naked, and said that the Prime Minister of Great Britain had nothing to hide in front of the President of the United States.

Is there really nothing to hide? Of course not, Churchill knew very well that the greatest threat to Britain's world hegemony is no longer Germany, but the rapidly expanding United States, and Britain will lose its status as world hegemon under the conditions of victory.

The most painful thing for Churchill was that he knew that the situation was like this, but he had to try to curry favor with Roosevelt, otherwise Britain would not even have any chance of survival, and despite all his efforts, the British still did not occupy an important position on the American scale.

The arrival of Chinese Foreign Minister Gu Weijun has aroused unanimous welcome from all walks of life in the United States, and Roosevelt has paid unprecedented attention to it; the national flags of China and the United States are hanging on both sides of the streets of Washington, and the United States must first inquire about China's opinions on all kinds of affairs; although Gu Weijun is only a foreign minister, he has received far more courtesy than that of Churchill, the prime minister.

Lao Qiu only felt a strong sense of jealousy, but he also knew that respect is earned by strength, Gu Weijun announced on the first day of his arrival in Washington that China would take on more war tasks, in the Asia-Pacific theater, and on all the battlefields that were needed. Chinese soldiers will appear.

This statement is really exciting for the world. This meant that the anti-fascist coalition had been given a steady stream of reserves. There was no need to worry at all, which reassured all countries, including the Soviet Union.

The Soviet People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs Molotov also expressed great appreciation for China's position, and Gu Weijun and Molotov also held several talks, and Gu Weijun told Molotov very clearly. China is willing to be a strong backing for the Soviet Union, and China is willing to provide all the help it can, even directly sending troops to the Eastern European battlefield. ‘

Molotov, for his part, expressed great gratitude to China for its generosity, but also politely declined China's request to send troops directly. The Soviets knew very well that if China sent troops directly, it would have a great impact on the position of the Soviet Union in the whole alliance, and would undoubtedly place the Soviet Union under China.

What the Soviet Union needs more now is all kinds of materials, weapons and food, etc., the Soviet Union has a huge shortage, and urgently needs the allies to provide it, of course, China and the Soviet Union have not always been so pleasant, Gu Weijun and Molotov have a fierce quarrel because of the Far East.

When they intervened in the Soviet Union, China and Japan were both intervention forces, and Japan seized the opportunity to seize the Far Eastern Frontier of the Soviet Union. Over the years, it has become one of Japan's most important raw material supply bases.

Now both China and the Soviet Union have declared war on Japan. The issue of the ownership of this land sandwiched between China, the Soviet Union and Japan was on the agenda, and Gu Weijun's attitude was very clear, this land has been Chinese since ancient times, and it will not be long before China will send troops to expel the Japanese invaders and recover their homeland.

Molotov, on the other hand, was resolutely opposed, stressing that China's argument did not conform to the principles of international law, and that this land had been seized by Japan during the Russian Civil War, and that it was the proceeds of illegal aggression and should be returned to Russia, rather than finding out a bunch of worthless things from the pile of old papers to determine its ownership.

Gu Weijun understands very well that he can't reason with Russia, all he can talk about is strength, so Gu Weijun suggested that the two sides simply stop arguing, whoever fights down will be whoever, China will soon launch an attack on land, the Korean Peninsula and the Far East are within the scope of China's attack, and if the Soviet Union has the ability, it can also launch an attack immediately.

As soon as these words came out, Molotov was furious, who did not know that the Soviet Union had already put all its strength on dealing with Germany, and could not draw any troops to deal with Japan, how could it compete with China.

In the face of the controversy between China and the Soviet Union, Roosevelt seemed very happy, this old fox knew very well the things about the intrigue between the allies, China and the Soviet Union had a conflict of interests, and the same was true of China and Britain, and the Soviet Union and Britain had never dealt with each other. Only the United States, which has always been far away from the circle of right and wrong, does not have too many direct conflicts, and what the United States wants is to use the contradictions between these countries to push itself to the position of mediator, and then become the general leader of the allies.

Therefore, Roosevelt proposed a way to make peace with the mud, that is, to wait for the next meeting of the heads of state to agree on a settlement, the Far East is still in winter, and the extreme cold has hindered the possibility of China's military advance, at least until after May, so China and the Soviet Union have also accepted the United States' peace and mud behavior.

From a global point of view, there are two major theaters, Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, of which the European theater can be divided into two main theaters, east and west, and there are also three secondary theaters, North Africa, the Mediterranean, and the Atlantic.

There is no doubt that the Eastern European theater was undertaken by the Soviet Union, and the main forces in the other theaters were the British and American allies, and the main question was whether the Chinese army would join the European theater, whether it would participate in the Soviet Union's attack direction, or whether it would participate in the Western Front and counterattack the European continent with the United States and Britain in the future.

In addition, the Asia-Pacific theater is also divided into several parts, the Pacific theater for which the United States is responsible, and the Southwest Pacific theater. In the two theaters of Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia, which China is responsible for, where these battlefields will intersect, which side will command the allied forces after they intersect.

These are very thorny issues, which must be discussed, and if they are not finalized, the Allies themselves will be in chaos.

While the countries were still arguing, the unfortunate news suddenly came that Chandra, the leader of India's largest opposition, had officially announced that he had joined the fascist side and had become a client state of Japan.

Chandra was originally supported by China, and he also succeeded in disrupting the British colonial order, and the guerrillas controlled more than half of India's territory at their strongest.

However, as tensions rose in Europe, relations between China and Britain eased rapidly, and China was unwilling to allow India to embark on the path of complete revolution, so it relaxed its support for Chandra, and at the same time China began to support the Indian National Congress Party led by Gandhi to curb Chandra's growing power.

Chandra's power is shrinking more and more, Chandra also learned from the pain, knowing that China has become a potential enemy from a friend, so he hooked up with Japan, hoping to use Japan's power to completely realize his ideas, and Japan is in urgent need of sleepwalking at this hungry time, India was originally a British colony, if India falls into the hands of Japan, it can not only greatly weaken the power of Britain, but also threaten the security of China's southwest border.

How could Japan give up this opportunity, so Japan put a lot of effort into Chandra and finally pulled him into his own camp.

Churchill, who was in London, was furious when he heard that there was another situation in India, which was the brightest jewel in the crown of the British king, and now there was a fascist force, how could he not make Lao Qiu feel frightened.

Among the dignitaries of various countries, only Gu Weijun was the most calm, and he persuaded Churchill: "Mr. Prime Minister, there is a saying in China that the soldiers come to block the water and cover the earth, Chandra is a cancer in South Asia, and he has joined the fascist side, which is completely self-defeating, for this kind of clown, it doesn't take too much effort!" ”

Churchill saw Gu Weijun's calm and relaxed appearance, and suddenly felt angry in his heart, Chandra can come to this day is completely because of China's support behind it, without China's support, Chandra would not have been able to make any waves, China created trouble, and then came out to solve the trouble.

In the process, China has deeply inserted its influence into the land of South Asia, knowing that this was originally British land, and seeing that Chinese crops are about to grow, Churchill's heart is not to mention how uncomfortable.

He knew very well that Gu Weijun was now completely waiting for himself to pray for China to send troops to help Britain, and Churchill's heart was extremely uncomfortable. He even had the heart to refuse Gu Weijun's proposal, and then poured the coffee in front of him on Gu Weijun's face, and then spit out a mouthful of phlegm fiercely, so as to make Churchill more comfortable. However, he also knows that this can only be imagined, and if you want to solve India's problems, you can't do without China's help, who makes Britain far less powerful than China.

"Mr. Foreign Minister, the British Empire has used all its forces against the evil Germany, and there is no superfluous force."

"Mr. Prime Minister, China is willing to do this kind of small things on its behalf, and China is willing to send troops to restore order in South Asia and eradicate fascist forces!"

"Now that your country has to deal with the Japanese on the Korean Peninsula and defend a long national border, do you still have the strength to enter India?"

"Mr. Prime Minister, rest assured, China currently has 7 million well-trained soldiers, and soon the number will exceed 10 million, and the small troubles in South Asia will soon be resolved."

Churchill read a trace of contempt from Gu Weijun's smile, even if Britain used all the strength to eat milk, it could not arm five million soldiers, but China could easily raise more than 10 million troops, and it did not affect the country's production capacity at all, which is the embodiment of the gap in national strength.

"Britain has agreed in principle to establish a South Asian theater of operations, and China can send troops to fight alongside Britain to completely eliminate Chandra and defend the South Asian subcontinent!"

"It's not to assist, but that China sends the supreme commander to command independently, and we can't always give the best effort, but let others command!"

Churchill pondered for a long time and said angrily: "Yes, but please abide by the spirit of the Atlantic Charter and do not illegally expand your territory!" (To be continued.) )
