French Navy!

So far, the French navy has almost no essential loss. Moreover, in the claim, the French army ranks first in Europe, and the French Navy ranks in the top four in Europe.

Now, the British navy is disabled. They have long focused on those ships of the French navy. If the French navy can be incorporated, the strength of the British navy can be restored at once!

Now, the prospect of France is not optimistic. If you are pessimistic, it is even a matter of time for France to surrender. At this time, Britain is even more impatient.

So the British ambassador ran over and asked the French Prime Minister.

When Churchill came to Paris, he discussed with Renault. Renault at that time promised.

Now, hearing what the British ambassador said, Renault thought briefly and said, "no problem. When we move to the new capital, we will give orders."

The British ambassador could only watch Prime Minister Renault pack up and leave. Originally, he wanted to say, can the order be issued now? However, he still didn't say it. Although Britain is very anxious, it can't excessively urge the French government, otherwise it will be counterproductive. Wait until you move to Bordeaux and come back to Renault.

Now, send a telegram to London first!

London, England.

The meeting room of the prime minister's office was filled with a strong smell of cigars. Churchill was smoking one by one.

He looked at the others and pressed his cigar into the ashtray: "as prime minister, I have this power. Now, we must sacrifice India's interests in exchange for the Soviet troops."

Now, the situation in the European continent is not optimistic at all. The surrender of France is right in front of us. Moreover, Chirac has said that after fighting France, the Germans will land across the sea and attack Britain!

Originally, Britain was not very afraid of the threat of German cross sea landing. You know, no matter how powerful the German army is, it can't fly over. The English channel is a natural moat.

However, when the Germans landed across the sea from a long distance and suddenly landed in western France, the British were surprised to find that the Germans really have this ability. They unknowingly have an extremely powerful navy, a century Old Navy! How did the Germans do it in just a few years?

It's incredible!

It can be imagined that the war that Britain will face is terrible and cruel.

For Britain, the only chance is the Soviet Union. If the Soviet Union can join in, it is quite beneficial to Britain. If the Soviet Union provokes a war in the East, the Germans will have to deal with the threat from the East, and then Britain will have the opportunity to buffer.

Britain needs time.

After the first World War, Britain did not want to fight. Britain simply abandoned its martial arts and invested less and less in national defense, so that almost all naval ships were the foundation of the first World War.

Now, finally, Britain has turned to the mode of war. All resources have been concentrated to serve national defense. However, they need time.

The Germans conquered France in less than half a month. If they were allowed to step on British land, it can be imagined that Britain would soon perish.

"We must let the Soviet Union join us. At this time, only the Soviet Union can give us time. If we are given a year, we can reorganize a strong expeditionary force. If we are given two years, our navy can recover to fight the Germans. If we are given four years, we Britain, Will be stronger than at any time in history! "

Time, Britain needs time! Without time, Britain could not hope to win the war.

The Soviet Union has made an offer to India.

The British colonization of India began with the East India Company. The East India Company did business in India. Slowly, the East India Company became a tool for the British colonists to invade India.

Experienced many twists and turns, especially. The British government made major adjustments to the Indian Uprising in 1857.

Britain abolished the East India Company and the Minister of Indian Affairs took over all its powers; And set up an Indian government headed by the governor of India. In this way, India has entered an era of direct rule by the British government.

India is very important to Britain,

India has vast territory, rich resources, large population and fertile land in the Ganges River Basin. It can be said that India is not only an important source of cheap raw materials in Britain, but also an important product dumping place in Britain.

During the aggression against China, almost all the y * * sold to China by British businessmen were produced in India, which was an important means of primitive capital accumulation in the early stage of British capitalist development.

At the same time, India's strategic position in geography is very important. It guards the main traffic route from the Indian Ocean to the Pacific Ocean and is the forward position of Britain's invasion of Southeast Asia.

Now, relying only on a verbal commitment to send troops, we will hand over the Indian colony to the Soviet Union. Such an approach will not be supported at all!

In the past few days, it has exploded in Congress. Some members even openly claim that Churchill is a traitor, which is more hateful than Chamberlain. Chamberlain sold France to Germany, while Churchill sold Britain to the Soviet Union!

After all, Western Europe is still capitalist, while the Soviet Union is different from their ideology, which is even more unacceptable. Since the establishment of the Soviet Union, Britain has always been hostile, but now it has to make friends with the Soviet Union and even leave India to the Soviet Union?

How can this be!

If Churchill made such a proposal in ordinary times, he might lose the support of the people and step down. However, now it is a time of war. According to the emergency bill, Churchill can bypass parliament when necessary.

Now, Churchill just wants to use his special power to make decisions directly, but at least the senior officials of the government have to support him.

Now, Britain is more pitiful than in history. France has failed and Britain is about to usher in a war. The most depressing thing is that the United States has stayed out of it and is unwilling to get involved at all.

Therefore, Churchill could only find other foreign aid. It would be worthwhile to use India in exchange for Soviet troops!

Churchill was trying his best to persuade his companions: "take a step back and say, what's the use of those isolated colonies if we Britain is taken down by Germany? The British Empire is gone! "

If you have a choice, all colonies can be abandoned in exchange for victory. In order to preserve Britain, all kinds of interests can be abandoned!

"I support the prime minister's view." Finally, in the corner of the conference room, a voice said.

This is an army general who looks a little tired. He is also one of the few British Expeditionary general who came back from France, Montgomery.
