Chapter 804 This is usurping the throne

The ship, which was more than 8,000 tons, slowly approached the port. When the ship stopped, several Americans walked down from the ship.

"Friends from across the ocean are very welcome." Churchill walked up and stretched out his hand towards the visitor in front of him.

U.S. Navy Major Omar extended his hand to the other party: "I hope our arrival is not too late."

Along the way, they were anxious, and they were worried about the revenge of the Germans.

You know, at a port outside the United States, they directed a play and gave the Germans a shit pot. So, will the Germans really relax restrictions and open fire on the transport fleet on the Atlantic Ocean?

They used two destroyers to escort, and these two destroyers were also intended to hand over to the British. They were frightened all the way over and they had to sail at the highest speed in order to catch up with the progress.

Fortunately, the Germans did not attack them, the Germans did nothing, and the American flag was hung on their ships. Now, the Germans still have a negative attitude towards the real war with the United States.

This is also the confidence of the United States. The United States blatantly supports Britain, but Germany dares not declare war on the United States and dares not take action against the United States' ships. The United States is waiting for this opportunity. If the Germans declare war on the United States, then the United States will definitely have more support to Britain.

The capital of Britain has fallen. If the United States does not provide greater support, should we watch Britain surrender? Watch Germany rule the entire Europe?

In that case, the United States will definitely be in trouble.

"Let's take a look at the goods first." Churchill said, and at this time, he could not wait.

The bombing of the Germans made British industry difficult, and support from the other side of the ocean is very important!

As the ship docked, loaders and unloaders began to quickly transport the goods. The first thing they moved out was the whole box of canned food!

With the siege of the Germans, the food in the UK gradually became tense. When I saw canned food, many people began to swallow.

Churchill was unmoved. Compared to food, he was more concerned about weapons. Without the weapons that he urgently needed, Britain would still not be able to withstand!

What about weapons? Especially tanks?

As if he knew his expectations, the rumble of the engine came from the rear of the cargo ship.

The riveted body, narrow tracks, tall body, a cannon in front, and on the body there was a very small turret. When Churchill saw this type of tank coming, he was immediately disappointed.

"Didn't we provide you with drawings and ask you to make them according to the heavy infantry tank we designed?" Churchill asked.

The tank in front of us is the current main force of the United States, the M3 Grant tank. This kind of tank has almost been behind since birth and cannot fight against the main force of the Germans.

Britain faces the main threat, and their tank design is also rapidly increasing the index. Now the main one is the A22 infantry tank. The design weight of this tank is as high as 40 tons, which is a model comparable to that of the German tanks.

In later generations, this tank was named Churchill Tank, and more than 5,000 were produced throughout World War II.

Now, although they designed it, they could not produce it because the factory was bombed. For this reason, Churchill quickly provided all the design drawings to the United States, hoping that the United States would make it with their strong industrial production capabilities.

The process of the US Congress slowly passing the lease bill was enough for their factories to produce such tanks, but who would have thought that the one who came here was still such junk?

Churchill was quite speechless.

"Our tank production department refused to produce tanks designed by the UK, believing that the tank's maneuverability is too poor and cannot meet the requirements at all. Especially the solution of using two gasoline engines will lead to poor reliability, so we did not produce according to your drawings." Omar, who is responsible for delivery, said: "The first batch is the m3 tank we produced, but the next batch may be the updated m4 tanks we designed. The next batch can definitely fight against the main tanks of the Germans."

Next batch? By the time the next batch arrives, how big is the UK still? I'm afraid Liverpool has fallen!

Churchill suddenly became even worse.

But he can't complain. After all, this is provided by the United States. If there is no United States, then Britain wouldn't have to expect to persevere.

Churchill can only express his gratitude: "Thank you very much for your support. I hope our next batch of tanks can be sent here as soon as possible."

Just after saying this, Churchill saw his adjutant and was running over hurriedly. He said to Churchill: "Prime Minister, His Majesty the King is urgently summoned."

"I'm sorry, I need to go back." Churchill apologized to his American friends, and then asked the officers around him to do the equipment reception work, followed by, and hurried back to the city.

"Crash! Bang!" When he went back, he heard the sound of something falling in the room. When he heard this sound, Churchill immediately frowned. What's going on?

Although His Majesty the King stuttered, and His Majesty did not want to be king, George VI has always faced it with firm belief, and at this critical moment, George VI was not discouraged.

Now, this behavior is not good, which means he is out of control?

"What's going on?" he asked Lord Chewell who came to meet him.

"The Duke of Windsor has arrived in London. He was sworn in Buckingham Palace and was the supreme leader of the entire country. At the same time, he announced that the entire British would give up their resistance and surrender to Germany."

When I heard this, Churchill felt the world spinning. God, why did you test the people of Great Britain like this?

"Traitor, scum! As the Windsor family, people, how can, compromise, and bow their heads, how can, surrender to Germany!" Because of the anger, George VI's words were even more difficult, and they almost jumped out one by one.

George VI was furious.

He didn't want this throne at first, but his brother had to come up because of his abdication, but now his brother has snatched the throne again.

He disagreed, he absolutely could not agree! The Germans bombed British cities and invaded British territory, and now, his brother actually surrendered to the Germans directly!

"Duke of Windsor, this is usurping the throne, we must not let him succeed." Churchill walked in and said loudly: "We must convene a meeting immediately to challenge the Duke of Windsor!"
