Chapter 770: Churchill's Death 1

Mussolini held a draft of the "Cairo Declaration" in his hand and wore reading glasses. He looked at each word with a serious expression on his face.

He generally agreed with the content of the declaration. It was obviously impossible to destroy the Soviet Union and the United States, and it would not be of any benefit to New Rome. This far-sighted and great leader of the New Roman Empire is now concerned about the long-term world structure. If Germany clamors to destroy the Soviet Union, he will feel worried - after all, New Rome is not participating in the war against the Soviet Union. After the destruction of the Soviet Union, New Rome It is also impossible to carve up Soviet territory...

"Leader," Mussolini put down the document in his hand, took off his glasses, and then asked Hitler with a smile, "Does Germany's territorial claim to the Soviet Union only include Ukraine and Belarus?"

"Yes." Hitler said with a smile, "If we can win it successfully, the territory of the German Empire will increase by more than 800,000 square kilometers... The living space of the German nation will be greatly increased."

Hitler's expression looked satisfied, but Mussolini thought: Germany has never had a world empire, so its ambition cannot be compared with Rome. A country of 2 million square kilometers makes them very satisfied.

"What about the Middle East?" Mussolini seemed a little worried and asked tentatively, "Should we let countries like Syria, Iraq, Persia and Saudi Arabia occupy it?"

"They will be under German protection," Reichsmarschall Hersmann told Mussolini, "and we will be a more moderate protector than Britain, and we will live in harmony with the MSL secular rulers there."

Germany's Middle East policy is led by Hersmann and has two main lines. One is the Europeanization of the Mediterranean coast. The Sinai Peninsula and Lebanon will become German territory, and the State of Israel will be established in Palestine west of the Jordan River. These areas will be built according to European standards and will also belong to Europe culturally.

The second is the secularization, modernization and semi-Europeanization of the peninsula countries and Persia. The peninsular countries and Persia will follow the example of Turkey and transform into secular states led by the Arab Baath Party or the monarchs of various countries.

Among them, Syria, which has part of the Mediterranean coast, will become a key target of support. After importing a large number of European immigrants, it will become an advanced European country where various religions peacefully coexist.

In addition to the main line, Germany also has a auxiliary line in the Middle East, which is "permanent military bases" established in the Gulf of Aden, Muscat, Kuwait, Abadan, Kirkuk, Bahrain and other places, as well as with the Middle East Security treaties signed by various countries-these bases and treaties put the countries in the Middle East completely under the protection of Germany. At the same time, it also ensured that the Euromark was linked to Middle East oil, so that the Euromark became an indispensable hard currency in international oil trade.

"So which countries will the future European Community include?" Mussolini then asked.

This is actually carving up territory with Germany - because the New Roman Empire will not join the European Community, nor will it use the European Mark, the New Roman Empire will be a rival to the European Community!

"Currently those who have joined or are determined to join include Germany and its co-monarchy alliance, France, Norway, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Croatia-Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, the Netherlands, Spain, the State of Israel, and Ireland," Hersman said, " We will seek to join the UK, Sweden, Switzerland, Portugal, Greece and some small and insignificant countries."

Luxembourg has been merged into Germany, and Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania, Slovenia, and Slovakia are Germany's co-monarchy alliance and will definitely become part of Germany in the future, so they have already been members of the European Community.

"Is Yugoslavia an irrelevant country?" Mussolini immediately asked.

"No." Hitler moved his mustache and showed a helpless smile, "This country does not need the protection of Germany at the moment... The Serbs are a stubborn nation, and we Germans have suffered from them."

Hitler was referring to the "Sarajevo Incident", which ignited the fuse of World War I and caused the Germans to lose two empires at the same time.

"Does this mean that Yugoslavia's sovereignty and territorial integrity are not protected by the European Community?" Mussolini further asked.

“As long as the Roman Empire agrees to Greece joining the European Community,” Hitler said, “then Yugoslavia will not be protected by Germany.”

Mussolini laughed, "Okay, I agree with Greece joining the European Community...Greece belongs to you, and Yugoslavia belongs to Rome, is that okay?"

Hitler and Herschmann exchanged glances, then nodded and asked, "Can the Declaration of Victory be passed?"

"Okay!" Mussolini nodded exaggeratedly, "This is a very good declaration, and the Roman Empire agrees 100%!"

On January 8, 1943, the Cairo Conference of the Axis Powers came to a successful conclusion. On the day of the conclusion of the conference, the national news agencies of the participating countries simultaneously released a document called the "Declaration of Victory", officially announcing to the world that the Axis Powers had China's stance towards this war and its three major enemies, the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union.

…

"Damn, damn...damn Nazis, damn fascists, damn Japanese monkeys!"

In the wartime cabinet headquarters in the basement of King Charles Street in London, British Prime Minister Churchill sat in his office. There was a broken radio on the floor next to him - Churchill smashed it himself! Because he heard the Cairo Declaration from this radio that could receive enemy radio broadcasts, which was almost his eulogy.

Because the Germans used the Axis Summit and the Joint Declaration to solemnly declare that Britain could be forgiven...

Britain could be forgiven, which meant that Churchill could not be forgiven - it was not that the Germans were unwilling to forgive him, but that the British people would not forgive him, a stubborn sinner who lost the war and almost ruined the entire empire.

"Mr. Prime Minister, the people... the people will not believe the Germans!" Viscount Brooke, the Chief of the General Staff, appeared behind Churchill at some point and said to him in a trembling tone, "The Germans are good at lying, they are not a reliable nation."

Churchill turned around slowly, his face looked old and pale in the dim light of the basement, and his body trembled unnaturally, as if he was seriously ill.

He looked at the Chief of Staff, whose face was full of worry, and smiled bitterly: "Whether you believe it or not depends on whether the counterattack that is about to be launched is successful! After all... Germany threw out this Cairo Declaration after landing on the British Isles!"

This is not a persuasion to surrender across the insurmountable English Channel, but the last way out for the British when they are about to approach London - they still have a chance to keep most of the empire, as long as they abandon the Churchill regime!

"Okay!" Churchill waved his hand, "Viscount, go and finish your work! We must fight to the end for the empire... In addition, let General Eisenhower come to me."

"Okay." Viscount Brooke nodded, turned around and left the Prime Minister's office.

Churchill sighed, then sat down on the chair. He opened a drawer, which contained a Browning High Power pistol, and there were several brass bullets scattered next to the pistol. This is what Churchill prepared for himself. If the counterattack does not work and the people of London rise up against him again...

I don't know how long it took, a burst of hurried footsteps came, and then the voice of private secretary John Martin was heard: "Mr. Prime Minister, Admiral Eisenhower wants to see you."

"Please let him in." Churchill closed the drawer, took out a cigar from the cigarette box with trembling hands, and lit the cigarette with a lighter on the table.

Eisenhower came from the American Embassy after receiving a call from Viscount Brooke - he has an office in the American Embassy in London and can use the embassy's radio to contact Washington at any time.

Before Viscount Brooke called, he was telegraphing with Marshall in Washington.

Needless to say, the content of the telegram exchange is also related to the Cairo Declaration. The United States has also known about this declaration, and of course it also knows what this declaration means to Britain?

"Mr. Prime Minister, do you have something to ask me?"

Churchill glanced at Eisenhower, then raised his hand and pointed to a chair opposite, motioning the other party to sit down.

"Do you know the Cairo Declaration?"

"Yes, yes..."

"Does Roosevelt know?" Churchill asked.

Eisenhower nodded.

"So... do you know what this means to Britain?"

"Yes," Eisenhower said, "there must be a victory!"

"Yes! We must use a victory to answer the German Nazis!" Churchill waved his trembling fist, "If we can't win, then there will only be destruction."

The British are not fools who can't think. They will make the right judgment. If Churchill can't come up with a victory immediately, then London will become an angry volcano, and Churchill and his followers will soon be in trouble!

"There will be victory!" Eisenhower assured, "The advantage on the British Isles is on our side. We have mobilized 9 divisions. And the equipment piled up in Iceland is being transported to Scapa Flow. Soon more American troops will be armed."

Roosevelt's aircraft carrier transport fleet is obviously effective. Now the port of Reykjavik in Iceland is full of aircraft, tanks, artillery, vehicles and ammunition just shipped from the United States - they will be transported to Scapa Flow via transport ships converted from destroyers or Liberty ships. In addition, many T2 tankers have also arrived in Scapa Flow.

The American troops on the British Isles will soon be fully armed and put into battle!
