Zhong Yi said: "I am going to take two armies to Africa, but..."

Seeing Zhong Yi stopping and not saying anything, Stilwell asked, "But what?"

Zhong Yi said again: "But we will not bring weapons and equipment, we will only go empty-handed. After we arrive in Africa, all weapons and equipment will be provided by the African war zone."

"Of course there is no problem with this." Stilwell said, "and it is also a matter of your authority."

"Within my authority?" Zhong Yi said with a smile, "What do you mean, will I be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the African War Zone by the Allied Command?"

"Of course," said Stilwell, "Is there anyone other than you who are more competent in this position?"

Zhong Yi smiled and said, "General Stilwell, do you really think so?"

"Of course." Stilwell said, "I think so of course."

"But your compatriots probably won't think so," said Zhong Yi. "The British wouldn't think so, especially Montgomery, who had just escaped from the German prisoner-of-war camp."

It was a miracle that Montgomery escaped from the prisoner-of-war camp.

"That's not my business." Stilwell spread his hands and said, "Barton is very proud. He is certain that he is not convinced of you, not to mention Montgomery. They will definitely try every means to embarrass you. But if you can't even deal with these two idiots, then what else can you do to deal with Rommel?"

Zhong Yi laughed and said, "What you said makes sense, I'm speechless."

Stilwell also laughed: "So we have reached an agreement?"

"Yes." Zhong Yi nodded, "You ask the British to prepare the ships. Let's take the boat and go ashore directly at the port by the Suez Canal."

"Overcos," Stilwell said happily, "I will inform the British."

...

No. 10 Downing Street, the British Prime Minister’s Residence.

Churchill was holding a pipe in his mouth and staring at the telegram in his hand.

The telegram had just arrived from Washington, and Roosevelt informed him of a decision in the telegram, intending to appoint Zhong Yi as commander-in-chief of the African War Theater.

This caught Churchill off guard.

Churchill should not be too familiar with Zhong Yi.

When Churchill first learned about Zhong Yi, he was when Zhong Yi had just taken office in Yinjiang.

As a result, Zhong Yi got off the car and established his authority with the British and handed over a British battalion in Yinjiang.

This incident caused a great sensation at that time and made the British government very embarrassed. Churchill was not the British Prime Minister at that time, and the Prime Minister was still Chamberlain at that time.

However, Churchill firmly advocated taking tough measures against China and even sent troops to attack China.

But in the end, Churchill's claim was not adopted by the government because once Britain joined the war, China would soon perish under the joint siege between Britain and Japan.

Once China perishes, the biggest profiter will undoubtedly be Japan.

This is undoubtedly extremely unfavorable to Britain's interests in the Far East.

Then, after the outbreak of the Pacific War, Churchill also became the British Prime Minister.

Due to insufficient combat effectiveness of the Japanese army, the British army was defeated on the Southeast Asian battlefield, and even Myanmar was lost in the end.

Out of some unknown dignity, the British government is unwilling to ask China for help even when it comes to this time.

In the end, it was the Americans who mediated, which led to the Chinese Expeditionary Force going to Myanmar and helped the Allies stabilize their foothold.

However, Churchill did not know much about what Zhong Yi did after he arrived in Myanmar. After all, the British have been deeply engaged in Myanmar for hundreds of years, and their intelligence tentacles have penetrated into all aspects.

Therefore, the British government can clearly understand the activities that Zhong Yi and Prayut secretly engage in.

Regarding Zhong Yi's intention, Churchill's insight was to see the fire, and what this guy wanted was Myanmar's independence. In this way, Myanmar would break away from the British Empire and could become China's sphere of influence.

Thinking of this, Churchill felt very ridiculous.

China is in a state of being in danger, and it is actually starting to think about managing its own sphere of influence?

What does it mean? If morality does not match its position, it will lose its country! Even if Myanmar eventually becomes China's sphere of influence, can you Chinese defend it? It's ridiculous!

Therefore, Churchill or the British government turned a blind eye to this and ignored it.

Because Churchill thought very clearly that the British government is now unable to protect itself, and its biggest enemy is Germany. Defeating Germany and maintaining its international status as a superpower is the most important thing, and everything else has to stand aside.

So, let Zhong Yi and Prayuth and others get back and forth and make small moves in secret.

What can the national emblem be like if the national flag is designed? What can the national army be like if the national army is established?

Just wait for the world war to end and just wait for Britain to win, you can kill you.

By then, Myanmar would still be a colony of the British Empire. Myanmar was, now, and will always be a colony of the British Empire!

But now, the Americans have asked Churchill again.

The Americans actually want to transfer Zhong Yi to Africa as commander-in-chief?

What do you think? There are so many senior generals in the Allied Army, but none of them are better than Zhong Yi?

Both graduated from West Point Military Academy. Is there such a big gap between Zhong Yi and MacArthur?

By the way, Churchill proposed that MacArthur be the commander-in-chief of the African Army.

Although MacArthur performed poorly in the Philippines, or even very badly, his resume was perfect or brilliant.

But unexpectedly, the Americans finally chose Zhong Yi.

This made Churchill feel uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister!" a staff member whispered, "Aren't Americans very worried about Zhong Yi?"

"What they are worried about is not Zhong Yi, but about Zhong Yi running his independent kingdom in Myanmar! As long as it is profitable, the Americans can even trade with the devil Satan." Churchill groaned and continued, "What's more, after Zhong Yi arrived in Africa, he only harmed the interests of the British Empire! After all, the Americans have no colonies in Africa."

The staff whispered: "His Excellency Prime Minister, then do you mean that you do not agree with the Americans' request?"

"Don't agree?" Churchill smiled bitterly, "Look carefully, the Americans are not asking for advice at all, but notifying us, do you know? They have made a decision and then notified us. That's how it is. The Americans no longer take our British Empire seriously now!"

The staff sighed deeply when they heard this.

What's the solution? The British Empire is already in turmoil.

If it weren't for the strong assistance of the US government, I would have been unable to bear to surrender to Germany long ago.

Being ridden by the US government as a hero is always better than being a slave to the Germans.
