Age of Conquest Reborn
Chapter 1514: The Prisoner of War Problem (Part 2)
After Tang Qiuli said this with a harmless expression, he took a sip of tea and half-closed his eyes as if nothing had happened, waiting for the British man's reply.
Several British people, including Foreign Secretary Charlie Brown, who always advocated the use of diplomatic means to resolve international affairs, had their eyes burning and wanted to strangle the Chinese to death on the spot.
The mineral resources of the Indian colonies have provided the British Empire with substantial economic support every year. They have been able to sustain it to this day under the heavy pressure of the Germans. In addition to the assistance from the Americans, the wealth from overseas colonies has also allowed the British to survive.
An important reason why it did not collapse. Otherwise, with the tiny area of the British Isles, how could the British Empire once dominate the world?
Now, the Chinese gently took out a few pages of paper and took the proceeds of almost all major resources in India as his own. This was a fatal injury to the British Empire, which had already lost too much blood.
I can’t imagine what the consequences will be?
Of course, you can refuse. Tang Qiuli's words are high-sounding and are just an expedient measure. But coupled with the previous threats, the consequences of refusal are not only the loss of these mineral resources, but also involve the domestic people's hearts and morale.
Charlie Brown swallowed hard, and his throat seemed to be burning again. He was the only one among the four negotiators who could still think clearly, but he could no longer maintain his so-called grace and was about to collapse.
"General Tang, this is a matter of life and death for our country. We, the few of us, cannot make the decision. We must ask our government for instructions. We also hope that you can give us some time until our government has a clear attitude before we can formally reply to you!"
Tang Qiuli said magnanimously: "Of course. After all, the matters involved are of great importance. In this way, tomorrow, the morning of May 28th, will still be the same time. I am waiting for your country's reply. I would like to invite a few more people.
A few words to Prime Minister Churchill, don’t be embarrassed, don’t force it. If the Prime Minister can come up with a better solution, Tang is willing to listen. We are allies after all!"
The thing that several British people are most afraid of now is what Tang Qiuli said, and the damn Allies. Don't the Chinese like to hurt their friends at all costs? It's better for you, a devil-like Chinese,
A knife was inserted, but you are inserting a knife into the body of the British Empire. Several British people did not even have the mood or strength to express anger in their eyes, and turned around and left without even saying hello.
The British didn't see Tang Qiuli watching them leave. He squinted his eyes and smiled like an old fox. There was indescribable contempt and pride in his smile.
Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe shook his head vigorously. The scene that just happened was like a dream. The division commander suddenly took out a document. He didn't know the specific content. He took action repeatedly, first to dismember the Indian continent and then to plunder it.
The British controlled the mineral resources in the area, and each blow was more ruthless than the last. Zhao Yuhe felt sad for the British.
He calmed down his shocked mood, looked at Tang Qiuli who looked very proud, and said: "Sir, I don't even know what you are doing. After all, this involves the economic lifeline of the British. Can they agree?"
Tang Qiuli stretched his body and said relaxedly: "Yu He, as I said again, form is stronger than people. The British in the South Asian subcontinent have completely lost the ability to challenge us. If they don't take the opportunity to chop them off a few times,
, wouldn’t it be a wasted opportunity!”
"The British will agree. Churchill is not a fool. He should know very well that if I make a fuss about British prisoners of war, what will it mean for the British mainland, which is now in a difficult and precarious situation? People's hearts and morale, and this is exactly
What Churchill needs most in order to resist the Germans is not afraid that he will not agree to it."
"Yuhe, the British are not at the end of their rope yet. The wealth plundered from overseas colonies is an important reason for supporting Britain. Rather than adding fuel to the fire, it is better to draw fuel from the bottom of the cauldron. Indochina is under our control. Now, the Indian mainland
Half of the natural resources fall into our hands, and most of the other half of the natural resources must be obtained."
"If the British's overseas income is cut off, how long can it be sustained by American blood transfusions alone? Moreover, for the sake of their own interests on the European continent, the Americans will not let the Germans dominate Europe. When the British lose other sources of economics, they will inevitably
Increase the intensity of assistance. From this aspect, the British battlefield is a bottomless pit that cannot be filled, and it will also drag down the Americans."
"We have gained real benefits. The British are dying, and the Americans are working desperately, but they cannot take care of Southeast Asia and the South Pacific. The war in Europe cannot be ended within a year or two. Wouldn't it be better to kill three birds with one stone like this?
?”
Zhao Yuhe could only marvel at how many methods could be devised for a simple prisoner of war problem in the mind of the division commander. In addition to admiration, he was also deeply in awe. He found that he could not keep up with the division commander's thinking.
On the afternoon of May 27, London, England, the air raid alert had just been lifted. The streets of London were still in a mess. In the underground office of Prime Minister Churchill, Churchill looked at the telegram from India with a dull expression.
Several secretaries and assistants, as well as several senior officers of the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff, were afraid to speak out. They looked at the increasingly haggard Prime Minister quietly, although they did not know the contents of the telegram sent in by the secretary just now.
What was it? But the pain that disappeared in a flash on the Prime Minister's face was still captured by these people.
The Chinese Tang Qiuli's series of heavy blows on the South Asian subcontinent have made Churchill unable to feel the pain. He is a seasoned politician who can see the key points at a glance. People's support and morale are what support Britain to this day.
The important reason is that Churchill, not everyone, knows what the consequences will be if he refuses Tang Qiuli's shameless request.
There are hundreds of thousands of prisoners of war, including several heavyweight generals. If Tang Qiuli deliberately made a fuss, it would be impossible not to make a big fuss about this matter. The outstanding sons of the British Empire were unfortunate enough to fight bloody battles for the interests of the empire overseas.
After being captured, the government refused to let them return to the motherland if it had the ability. The people in the country were heartbroken, and he himself, the prime minister, would also become the target of thousands of people!
The people's hearts will fall apart because of this, and the day when the British Empire will collapse is not far away. Churchill cannot afford the consequences of ruining his country and his family. Just as Tang Qiuli expected, Churchill didn't even have the courage to refuse.
He had to agree to Tang Qiuli's naked blackmail behavior, and he did not dare to announce what Tang Qiuli did in front of the world. In that case, only the British would be embarrassed, and the psychological blow to the people would be
It is also extremely serious.
Knocking out his teeth and swallowing the blood in his stomach should be a true portrayal of Churchill's inner feelings at this time. He even thought, "The devil-like Chinese is more hateful than the crazy German Hitler who fought in front of his own house.
The Germans are fighting with open fire, but the Chinese Tang Qiuli is taking advantage of others' danger."
Churchill bitterly wrote these few lines in his reply to the negotiating delegation, "Agree to all the demands of that despicable and shameless Chinese, end the war on the Indian continent as soon as possible, and immediately reorganize the armed forces after receiving the prisoners of war.
One-third of the British soldiers were sent back to the country, and the rest were left in India to form new combat troops. Alexander was also escorted back to London, and Adams was appointed as the commander of the troops stationed in India."
The war between the British and the Chinese Tang Qiuli in the South Asian subcontinent was a complete failure. They lost miserably. They lost the Indochina Peninsula, half of the Indian continent, and gave up natural resources. All of this was
There must be an explanation to the people in the country.
Alexander will inevitably become a scapegoat, and only this tragic figure has enough weight. His head is Churchill's tool to calm domestic public opinion.
When Alexander first lost the Indo-China Peninsula and then defeated northern Burma, his end was already doomed. Churchill hated Alexander deeply, believing that it was this foolish and incompetent commander who had destroyed all the capital of the British Empire in Asia.
, a clean loss.
However, Churchill never thought that all of this was caused by him. If he had not insisted on going his own way and ordered Alexander to command hundreds of thousands of troops to attack northern Myanmar, there would not be today's ending. Churchill's impression of the Chinese
, he is still stuck a hundred years ago. He has suffered a loss and still does not regret it. This is the characteristic of his stubborn character.
With the authorization of the Prime Minister, the British negotiating delegation arrived in Aligarh on time the next day. On the morning of May 28, in the negotiating room that made the British cry without tears, Foreign Secretary Charlie
On behalf of the British government, Brown signed a series of documents, and the "Sino-British Aligarh Treaty" officially came into effect. Both sides set up a special group to resolve the specific implementation of the treaty.
Of course, Tang Qiuli did not break his promise, and he behaved very generously. Just after the signing, he brought good news to the dejected and dull-looking British people.
Tang Qiuli put down his pen and said to Charlie Brown: "Mr. Charlie Brown, I want to inform you of news. Just now, my men have released more than 10,000 soldiers of your country who were captured during the Battle of Sri Lanka.
, how about arranging manpower to receive it!"
Charlie Brown wanted to say thank you as a habit, but these two words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say it out. What are you grateful for? Thank you to this devil-like Chinese, should you be generous or keep your promise, or should you?
Is it to show what the Chinese call a certain moral character?
Tang Qiuli's generous performance was like a sudden ray of sunshine in the gloomy sky, but it was too weak to make Charlie Brown, Chief of General Staff General Brandts, and Secretary-General of the Prime Minister's Office George Fernandez,
The four Governors of Pajvasali felt the slightest warmth.
Moreover, the cost of this ray of sunshine was so great that the British Empire could not bear it, and it broke the hearts of those who were specifically responsible for this matter.
