Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 2946 The Third World War

Throughout the history of the world, in many cases, a single thought of some people can often become a turning point in history, and even write a historical legend.Here, it doesn't matter whether Churchill turned black and white to slander the Chinese government for provocation first.What is certain is that before that, there were not so many ideas in his mind at all, and even because of the strength of the Chinese army, he never thought of becoming an enemy of China.However, in order to extend his term as prime minister, he created the above-mentioned rhetoric with just a single thought.And what he never expected was that just because of his mistake, Britain was almost sent to hell.

"Gentlemen, we do not lack the means to deal with the Chinese. I think it is time to show our strong influence and cause some troubles for the Chinese. Aiden, put the French affairs aside for the next stage. , I have more important tasks to entrust to you. An Erla's work in XZ is progressing too slowly, I need you to completely open up the situation in XZ..."

Since the end of the last century, the British government has been trying to split XZ from the Chinese territory. Therefore, although the Chinese government has always maintained a high degree of vigilance against the UK on the independence of XZ, the British, out of their own considerations, even if it is China and the UK When the relationship was the closest, he didn't withdraw his tentacles from XZ.And now, it seems, it's time for the British to persevere.

"...Imagine, the Chinese are being completely entangled by the Americans, the British, and the Soviet Russians, and the world suddenly becomes chaotic, what kind of expression Ouyang Yun will have! Haha!" Speaking of joy, Churchill was at a loss The figure laughed loudly.

Before that, because members of Churchill's cabinet focused their attention on Europe, even though they knew that China's sudden confrontation with the United States and Japan at the same time would be an opportunity for Britain, they were only limited to associations of political blackmail and did not mobilize troops. Plan to shoot.Of course, it can also be understood that they dare not fight China at all.

Churchill suddenly brought up this topic, and described a very feasible and beautiful scene, and everyone was immediately moved.Perhaps it was because of the fact that the Opium War ate up China's benefits, the British had a natural psychological advantage over this ancient country in the far east.According to them, the current China's combat power is indeed good, but is the combat power of the Qing Dynasty before the Opium War worse?At that time, the Qing Dynasty was known as the Celestial Dynasty!But what was the result?As soon as the British Empire's Armada came out, the so-called Celestial Dynasty became a soft-legged crab in the gutter, and immediately turned upside down, only knowing that the nest was in a mess.

Among the crowd, Aiden has studied China the most, and he has become the only one who remains cautious.He said: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, should we wait until after Soviet Russia and China go to war—gentlemen, you may not know Ouyang Yun. This person, to make an inappropriate analogy, is a mad dog..."

It was too obvious that Aiden's words made others want to destroy his prestige, and was immediately questioned by others.Colonial Secretary Stanley said: "Mr. Aiden, are you overly cautious? If we really wait until China is about to lose the war, we will lose the right to speak on many things. I support Mr. Prime Minister's decision, XZ issue, we It should be implemented immediately. The United States has asked us to take practical actions more than once, and we can just stop the Americans by instigating the XZ incident!"

"I don't think it's enough just to stir up the XZ incident. The Chinese deliberately instigated many countries in Southeast Asia and the Middle East to rebel. I think we should immediately use thunderous means to suppress it. There are two advantages to doing this. One is to crush the power of these countries Illusion, and the second is to be able to attack China's prestige," said the First Secretary of the Navy, Bracken, who had not spoken after Stanley.

As the First Minister of the Navy, Bracken is deeply concerned about the fact that China forcibly took over the British Far East Fleet through extremely disgraceful means.Previously, the United Kingdom was weak and the political situation was unstable, while China was in the limelight, so he could hold back.But now, with the obvious opportunity to beat the dog in the water, he couldn't calm down immediately.

It's not like others have never thought about the idea of ​​suppressing the independence movement in the colonies by means of thunder, but because this matter is of great importance, and a little carelessness may backfire, and the current Britain does not have the strength before the war at all, so others are I just think about it, and I don't want to say it in public, for fear of giving political opponents a chance to attack me.Now, when Bracken suddenly brought this matter up, everyone no longer had any scruples in this regard, so they all spoke freely.

"I agree with Mr. Bracken's suggestion. Britannia should reinterpret its image to the world, otherwise some people think that we can be bullied!"

"I think it's okay. Colonial interests are an inseparable part of Great Britain's overall interests and must be firmly defended. And I think if we can't be tough on this matter, it will affect the image of Great Britain and make those Europeans The country looks down on us, which will not be conducive to our great cause of rejuvenation!"

"Our greatest enemy, Germany, has begun to decline. Since some people are trying to challenge the authority of the British Empire, then we just want to show our strength..."

……

Churchill didn't know that an idea that came to him on the spur of the moment would turn out to be Pandora's box.In the ensuing discussions, his cabinet members became more and more tough. Under the exaggeration of this collective tough atmosphere, the mighty China seems to have become a paper tiger, and its threat has been reduced again and again until it is ignored. Excluding.Thus, at the end of the meeting, not only the so-called "Action Plan for Supporting the Independence of China" was passed, but also the so-called "Plan for Reconstruction of the Far East Colonies".In the latter "Far East Colonial Reconstruction Plan", Churchill agreed to form a new Far East Expeditionary Force and grant it the ability to do things cheaply.

"...The size of the Far East Expeditionary Force should be at least [-] infantry divisions, including [-] armored divisions and five mountain divisions. In addition, in order to deal with the threat of the Chinese navy and air force, at least five fleet-level aircraft carriers and More than a thousand fighters..."

The author of the above text is Bracken. Obviously, he has long planned to start a war with the Chinese army in the Far East.There is no doubt that for the current United Kingdom, this is a huge military expansion plan.However, because the situation in Europe is relatively stable, there is no need to retain much military power, and the Americans promised a lot of military aid early in order to lure the British to join the anti-China group, so this is still within the tolerance of the British government.So, except for Eden, other members of Churchill's cabinet voted in favor of this matter.This also means that the British government has truly become a member of the anti-China group and will send troops to truly participate in the war.

So far, the participating countries of the Third World War are considered complete.
