Chapter 768: Voting certificate (1/2)
When escaping, in order to maintain the dignity of the British, Wavell and others did not put on ordinary clothes. In case they were captured by the enemy, they did not wear military uniforms, which was an absolute shame.
Therefore, he still has that stiff military uniform on his body, which is why he was discovered by the seaplane in the sky.
The rubber boat is not big, and the target at sea is very small. Most of them are shrunk in the rubber boat. If it is the opponent's warship, it will not be very clear, but in the sky, it is absolutely clear. Up.
When the German plane in the sky dived down, everyone secretly yelled badly and quickly lowered their heads, but the German plane was so accurate!
The bullet swept across the sea, splashing a lot of water, and then it swept onto the rubber dinghy, one by one, the rubber dinghy leaked.
At the same time, the bullet stayed on the rubber dinghy, and accompanied by the screams, one by one **** flowers were stained on the leaking rubber dinghy.
Several people were shot.
The plane overhead flew away, and Wavell used his one-eyed eye to look at the sky at last. His breathing gradually became slow and finally stopped.
Wavell died. The soldier who had fought for Britain all his life died in the hands of the enemy.
For a soldier, perhaps, this is the best destination.
Wavell was dead, Cunningham was dead, and the chief general of the British colony in the Middle East was killed by a seaplane.
It is a pity that the pilot of the seaplane who did this major event did not receive any rewards he deserved. He was anxious to perform the transportation mission, and even this attack, he did not report to his superiors. In his eyes , This is just a trivial matter.
As a result, the death of William Wavell, the British commander of the Middle East, became a mystery. No one knew how he died or where he died. Numerous historical experts have verified it, but in the end, it is also nothing.
Tubrug, entered the bag of Germany, and at the same time, a door opened in front of Rommel. In front of him, there is no longer the main force of the British. It is already a flat river. It seems that he only needs a week. You can rush to the Suez Canal!
News of Tubrug’s fall quickly reached London. At this time, Churchill was struggling for the request of the United States.
”Prime Minister Churchill, President Roosevelt is now very embarrassed. In order to persuade Congress, President Roosevelt made a promise to find a large amount of funds for the United Kingdom. The plan must be implemented immediately.” The official envoy appointed by Roosevelt himself, the assistant to the president, Laughlin-Ju , Came to London and personally told Churchill.
Roosevelt was persuading Congress to pass the Lease Bill. Once this bill is implemented, the weapons, equipment, food, and various raw materials that the UK urgently needs to continue fighting will receive a large supply.
The United States has even made preparations and intends to provide the retired warships of the United States Navy to the United Kingdom. Once the British Navy is re-armed, it will have the ability to continue fighting with Germany!
So, when he first heard about the lease bill, Churchill was quite excited. The United States finally began to reach out to help the United Kingdom! The last time I went to the United States, it was so meaningful!
But after that, Churchill couldn't be happy.
The betrayal of Canada to the United States is a secret agreement, and it cannot even be taken to Congress. Once the news leaks, it is unclear how Canada will react.
So, why does the United States help Britain?
