Chapter 1011: The New Situation in Asia (Part II)
In Ottawa, Canada, the British MPs who had retreated to Canada are still arguing. Churchill sat in his chair with a cigar in his mouth and said nothing.
"Now that those Chinese have opened up the situation in Southeast Asia, we should try to save our strength and prepare for returning to Southeast Asia after the war." One parliamentarian made an impassioned statement: "It will be in the interests of the British Empire to let those Chinese themselves run out of blood on the battlefields of Southeast Asia and the Soviet Union!" So, I don't agree with us sending all our forces to the Soviet battlefield. We should preserve our combat capability......"
Montgomery, who had retreated to Ottawa, was promoted to one of the current heads of the Army because of his military prowess, as was Hugh Doudin.
"Do we have any power to speak of now?! Almost all of our army, navy, and air force have been lost to England, and how many soldiers do you expect us to be able to recruit with such a small population in Canada?! Montgomery gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
And there is still something in his heart that he has not said, that is: you stupid pig with a fat brain can see it, you think the Wehrmacht will not be guarded?! Don't forget, now the Wehrmacht is the main force of the operation!
The U.S. military has not yet officially intervened in the war, and the Soviet Union is only preparing to start a war. European countries such as Britain, France, and Belgium are equivalent to defeat, and only China has achieved a phased victory on the battlefield.
At this time, you don't think about how to help your allies achieve victory, but how to get into a pit?! The war has not yet been won, and you have already thought about how to pit your allies to reap the post-war dividends?! It's not an idiot, what else can it be?!
"Don't forget, war will also cost China a lot!" The parliamentarian looked at Churchill and the others with confidence, and said: "It is not only us who will be lost, but the resources and the support of the colonies that we need to recover after the war are essential!" ”
As soon as the councillor's words came out, Montgomery and Hugh Daoding couldn't help but lament in their hearts. The fall of the British Empire. Not without reason. The people who occupy the top are such a group of idiots, and it is difficult for the empire not to decline.
"The first thing I would like to tell you, Mr. Distinguished Parliamentarian, is that China has at least 200 million people, and that number is constantly increasing. Second, they are now gradually carrying out industrialization reforms. At least they can design and build good fighters, tanks and guns on their own. ”
Hugh Doudin has always been concerned about the Wehrmacht, and at the earliest time he had his eye on the Wehrmacht's Tiger Shark fighters. It is a pity that the arrogant parliamentarians of the time thought that the British Empire's Hurricane was definitely more advanced than the Tiger Shark.
So Gen didn't think about whether to introduce tiger sharks, and even this proposal was ridiculed. But the Wehrmacht's Tiger Shark turned out to be an absolutely excellent fighter.
And on top of that. The Defence Forces have developed specialized interceptors, ground attack aircraft and bombers. And developed the later Tiger Moth and introduced the current B-24 four-engine long-range bomber.
China is constantly making progress and developing, but the British Empire is still reeling in its former glory. Even though the land has fallen, he still refuses to look around to see the changes in the world.
It is only when interests are involved that these parliamentarians will have their eyes blazing and desperately calculating. How can such a country and such a parliamentarian not be lonely?!
"So what?! War will always lead to their losses. If it is only our loss, it is absolutely not in the interests of the British Empire. What we need is that the Chinese will not be able to intervene in Southeast Asia after the war. And then there's India, the pearl of our British Empire. ”
The lawmaker's eyes lit up and his mouth frothed. But he didn't notice that whether it was Churchill or Montgomery, looking at him as if he was looking at a champion in the Brainless Olympic Games.
"Prime Minister, I don't think I should be present at this meeting. There are still many reservists now recruited from Canada who need military training. I have to deal with that. ”
Montgomery stood up and said to Churchill, "So." I'm going to get busy first. If there is a result of the discussion, then please order it directly. As a soldier of the British Empire, I obey orders unconditionally. ”
Hugh Doudin also stood up at this time and said, "The fighter planes we ordered from the United States have arrived. Testing and training new pilots requires our own attention. If the Prime Minister or the Diet have any decision, please order it directly. ”
After saying that, the two of them left the conference room without looking back, leaving all the councilors here.
"Damn it! What do you mean by that?! Am I not thinking about the Empire?! Seeing the disdainful expressions of the two of them, the councillor roared angrily, "It's because you fools who only use muscles. will make the British Empire unable to even keep its land! ”
Montgomery, who had just walked to the door, turned around and pursed his lips and looked at the councillor coldly. The councillor was furious with Montgomery's eyes.
But he saw Hugh Doudou, who was next to Montgomery, trying to hold Montgomery. But he was suddenly freed by Montgomery. He walked slowly up to the councillor, pulled out his pistol, and slammed it against the frightened councillor's head, and said in a cold voice, "Can you repeat what you said?!" ”
"Montgomery! What do you want?! Put the gun down immediately, I order you to put the gun down!! The Speaker looked at Montgomery's eyes and knew that the general definitely wanted to kill this open-mouthed councilor.
And the congressman who spoke was already so frightened that he was about to pee his pants, and he trembled all over his body and didn't dare to say a word. He didn't even dare to look at Montgomery, but only looked at Churchill with a pleading gaze. Hopefully Churchill will save his life.
"Why did the British Isles fall?! Because the idiot parliamentarians sitting here thought that it would be in the good of the British Empire not to contain Hitler and let him stir up Europe. Why was Hitler able to capture us?! Because when he was building the first battleship, our 'smart' parliamentarians thought that the more chaotic Europe was, the better it would be in the interests of the British Empire! ”
Montgomer pointed a gun at the head of the parliamentarian and said coldly: "These idiots created Hitler's rise, and they even vigorously approved loans to Germany to make Hitler stronger." They betrayed their Czech allies, they betrayed their Polish allies for their own interests. These idiots raised Hitler to be stronger, and then let him swallow the entire British Empire in one gulp! ”
Speaking of which, in the end. Montgomery's angry scolding turned straight into a rant. The parliamentarians present were extremely embarrassed, and the strength of Germany was indeed cultivated by them bit by bit.
They thought that Germany would at most disturb Europe, but what they did not expect was that a strong Germany would directly swallow up the whole of Europe. Even the United Kingdom, which raised them, was swallowed up.
"I have long reported that Germany will eventually become an enemy of the British Empire. It's a pity that my report was thrown in the trash by the parliamentarians because they thought a military man's views on politics were nonsense. ”
"Long ago, General Hugh Daoding asked for the introduction of Chinese Tiger Shark fighters and increased production of new Spitfires. Unfortunately, the parliamentarians still threw his report into the middle of nowhere. The reason was that they thought that those hurricanes would definitely be able to defeat the Germans......"
"Then, we were defeated. Lost the Imperial Land. Like a wild dog, he fled to Canada. Montgomery took a deep breath and said, "And now, these councillors want to count their allies when the war has not yet seen victory, and they blame us soldiers for not defending their homeland!" And in fact, more than 5,000 soldiers in my army died on the battlefield defending England, what else can I say about these councillors?! ”
The lawmakers were red-faced by Montgomery's remarks. Can't say a word.
"If you feel that I am not fit to continue in my current position, then I will retire from the army." With that, Montgomery withdrew his pistol and walked out of the conference room with a gloomy face.
A bunch of watchful parliamentarians remained. Churchill remained silent, watching Montgomery go berserk and watch Montgomery lash out at the MPs.
I watched him leave the conference room like that. What Montgomery said was something he had wanted to say for a long time. It's just that because of his identity, he is not good, so he said it directly.
In fact, when Montgomery angrily denounced the parliamentarians for their dead meals, Churchill's heart was filled with joy.
"Damn it! Montgomery had to get out. A general without any political calculations is not fit to lead the army of the British Empire! We should find a better fit, I believe ......"
"Then let you lead?!" Churchill did not wait for the MP to finish speaking, and then laughed and sneered: "And then lead our army into defeat?!" And then, watching you flee in a plane while they fight the enemy on the battlefield?! ”
The MP was dumbfounded by Churchill's words. He was one of the parliamentarians who fled England in panic. It was also they who encouraged the British royal family to withdraw quickly, in order to save their lives.
"Tomorrow I will resign to Your Majesty, I am no longer able to deal with the situation I have had before. I'll leave it to you! Since you are so smart, you are so considerate of the British Empire. Churchill sneered: "In that case. Then I'll leave it all to you. ”
Churchill is now completely tired of these chattering but non-existent parliamentarians, what are they going to do other than constantly calculating their own petty interests?! It seems that it was not enough for them to make the British Empire unlucky once. Do you have to be willing to let the whole empire fall over?!
"Nope! Prime Minister, we still think it would be more appropriate for you to lead this war......" Hearing Churchill's words, the Speaker quickly stood up and said, "Please don't resign lightly......
As he spoke, the speaker glared fiercely at the councillors. In fact, the Speaker also knew why Montgomery and Churchill were so angry. The British Empire was harmed by these parliamentarians.
And now these parliamentarians are obviously going to continue, and the likes of Montgomery and Churchill are already very impatient to deal with them. But as the Speaker, many times he is also involuntarily.
Churchill glanced at the parliamentarians with a sneer on his cigar, and the parliamentarians instantly calmed down. One by one, they avoided Churchill's gaze and did not dare to squeak.
In fact, they all know in their hearts that the reason why Britain has come to this point today is inseparable from the clamor of their people. As a result, they are embarrassed by the current situation.
But at the end of the day, none of them were fools, and they knew in their hearts that only Churchill could handle such a situation now. If it weren't for Churchill, perhaps the entire British Empire would have ended up after the British campaign in Germany.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister. I admit that what I have just said and acted has been a bit radical. For this, he was willing to apologize to General Montgomery...... "The parliamentarian who caused the incident could only grit his teeth and apologize to Churchill under the eyes of everyone.
He knew there was nothing he could do now. The Americans have long been able to see through the reality of the British Parliament, and most of the support from the United States is now coming from Churchill.
Without Churchill and Montgomery, the current British Parliament would certainly lose most of its American support. After all, compared to them, the tiger on the Asian side still has progress.
Instead of supporting them, it is better to support the reality that the Tiger came from the Soviet Union. Canada is not an industrial country, and there is no way to produce many weapons and equipment.
Most of Britain's assets have been lost in the British Isles, and the base is now surviving on Canadian taxes and American loans. It can be said that Britain fell directly from being rich and handsome to being poor and frustrated after losing its soil.
This made the British extremely uncomfortable. But they had to accept it. On top of that, these parliamentarians are thinking more about how to get more benefits for Britain and themselves.
For example, how can these parliamentarians' companies get more resources and shares in regions such as India and Southeast Asia, so that they can get more money in dividends.
The simultaneous binding of national and personal interests has made these people a little blind.
"Gentlemen! Although I hate to say it, I have to say it. Churchill sighed, looked at the parliamentarians, and said, "The British Empire is no longer the British Empire it used to be. We should accept this fact. At the same time, accept that China is no longer the country that once opened its doors with our guns. ”
"The country is recovering. If you look at their history, you will know that this country has long been the center of Asia. Whether it is Japan, Korea, or Southeast Asia, it was built around this vast empire for a long time. ”
"In the middle of the day, you can see a lot of kanji. North Korea has been using Chinese characters directly as its official script for hundreds of years. Annan doesn't even have his own words now. In Southeast Asia, Chinese characters were still used before they were entered by European countries. What this says, I don't believe I need to say that you all know it in your heart. ”
Churchill looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice: "I don't know if China can rule the world." But I can tell you for sure: they will rule Asia. Whether we like it or not, they will do it......"
In Tokyo, the Imperial Palace is holding a pre-imperial meeting. Hirohito kept his face calm and didn't say a word, and the people who were present at the meeting, Hideki Tojo, Miyajihito Kanin, and King Hiroshi Fushimi Miya, who were in the meeting, trembled and didn't dare to speak loudly.
“…… We have been able to increase the production of new fighters to 800 per month. If we work harder, we can produce about 1,000 aircraft. Thanks to the resources of Southeast Asia, the new tank has also been able to produce 50 vehicles per month......"
"That's not what I'm going to hear!" Hirohito spoke suddenly, but Hirohito's accent was different from that of other Japanese. In fact, there are several levels of Japanese.
The commoners used it and the nobles used it differently. And the emperor as an imperial family. The Japanese language he uses is known as "Tamain".
Hirohito would not speak at the Imperial Council, and sometimes he would try to express himself in vague or ambiguous phrases when he had to.
In order not to let people catch their sore feet. Anyway, when the time comes, he will summon high-level officials, including Kanin Miyajihito and Fushimi Miyahiro, to teach him in private.
And this time, it was clear that Hirohito was extremely angry. He didn't care about it, and went crazy directly at the imperial meeting!
"In the Southeast Asian campaign, we have made progress. But now the situation is getting worse and worse, more than 50,000 imperial warriors are shattered, and more than 40,000 people are injured! In this way, half of Annam, including Hanoi, was also lost. Hirohito looked at these cabinet ministers coldly and said.
"I wonder when this battle will end?! What a price we need to pay in Southeast Asia to be able to win! That's what I want to know. ”
Your Majesty was angry...... "Everyone hurriedly leaned over, and the authority of everyone here came from Hirohito. If Hirohito had said they would have gotten out of here, none of these people would have been able to stay until the next morning.
"Your Majesty, General Sugiyama Gen cannot be blamed for this battle......"
"I don't blame him! I'm asking you when you will be victorious! Hirohito directly interrupted Xianyuan Palace's words, and said irritably: "I just need to win, understand?!" Victory! ”
"Hay! It's the subordinates who are stupid...... "Hirohito is angry, and the Idle Palace doesn't dare to say anything."
"I have clearly sensed that the center of Asia is shifting. The neighboring countries of Southeast Asia, which once admired the empire immensely, are now openly and covertly in contact with the Wehrmacht. Do you know any of this?! ”
Hirohito took a deep breath, calmed his anger and said to everyone, "Do you know what will happen if it drags on like this any longer?!" There is no doubt that the Empire will be the target of public criticism, do you still think that the Empire will continue to win this war?! ”
"I said, what I need now is victory! What the empire needs now is victory!! ”
