"I believe everyone has already learned about the incident that happened in Guyana on April 15 and 16.

Nazi Germany, which conquered most of Europe by force, first used conspiracy to overthrow the Dutch Guiana authorities, and then invaded the region with force, which was located on the American continent and close to the United States.

This aggressive act of invasion of the American continent not only seriously violated the interests of the United States, but also violated the bottom line that the United States pursued on the American issue since 1836, that is, European countries can no longer regard any American country as a colony and the United States regards any attempt to colonize the Americas as a threat to national security. This is why the government I led submitted an ultimatum to the Nazi German government on April 17.

In defending the Americas, a land that belongs to all Americans, we cannot retreat or waver at all, and we must show the firmest position.

If we chose to back down on the Guyana issue in April 1942, the Nazi army from Europe would soon invade Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia... just as they did on the European continent. And the United States of America would eventually become the target of the invasion of the Nazi army.

So I, other important members of the U.S. government, and most members of the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, agreed that the strongest stance needed to be taken, and even fight at all costs.

And today, on April 18, 1942, the Nazi German government refused to withdraw their armed forces from Guyana! Nazi Germany was determined to extend the clutches of invasion from Europe to America in peace and prosperity, and to divide our homes with their Japanese allies.

Therefore, at 1 pm this afternoon, I filed a request to declare war on the German Empire and received support from members of Congress. Now, the United States of America is in a state of war with the German Empire!

As the commander-in-chief of Captain America, I know very well that the enemy is extremely powerful. But the American army, American industry and American people are even stronger. As long as we fight bravely, we can defeat all enemies. Victory will definitely belong to the United States!"

On the afternoon of April 18, 1942, President Roosevelt held another "firesidence talk" to the country, telling the people of the whole United States that the terrible news that the United States and Germany were already in a state of war with majestic, firm and confident tone.

At the same time, he also explained the reason, a reason that seems quite correct to the American people. The United States cannot allow Nazi Germany to rampant in Latin America because everyone knows that most Latin American people love the United States very much and dream of swearing allegiance under the Stars and Stripes. Therefore, the United States also has an obligation to protect these future American citizens from being bullied by the evil Nazis.

At the same time, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, a furious German leader danced his arms exaggeratedly on the podium of the European Senate, shouting loudly in a tone that was extremely angry and was about to explode.

"Just a few hours ago, US President Roosevelt strongly rejected the opportunity to live in peace with Europe... He claimed that America belongs to Americans, and we have no objection to this. But Roosevelt was also stubbornly unwilling to admit that Europe belongs to Europeans!

He accused us Europeans of invading Dutch Guiana, although it belonged to the Netherlands, a European country since 1667. At the same time, he was unwilling to return two lands, Iceland and the Azores, which have belonged to Europe since ancient times, to the European countries Denmark and Portugal in exchange for our withdrawal from Dutch Guiana.

Because Iceland and the Azores are now overseas territories of the United States and colonies of the United States! Two pieces of European land, hundreds of thousands of European people, have now become treated by Americans as Filipinos and Filipinos.

This is what has never happened in Europe since the empire of the Horites, and the land of Europe was occupied by armies from other continents, and the people of Europe became slaves to other continental powers.

This is a great humiliation! Is it the barbaric empire on the new continent of the United States riding on the necks of our Europeans to act as a blessing, the American empire is trampling on our dignity at will, the dignity of the noblest race in the world! Tell me, are you choosing to be a warrior defending Europe like Constantine XI, or a slave under the whip of the Americans?!

Some people may say: Mr. Hitler, the United States is very powerful. It has the most steel and oil in the world. It can produce millions of cars a year. The shipbuilding industry produces more ships in a year than the whole Europe combined. Yes, these people’s statement is very correct. The United States is indeed powerful. Going to war with the United States may cause many Europeans to lose their lives. But I want to tell them that there are some things in this world that are more important than life, that is freedom! that is dignity!

As long as the American flag is still flying over Iceland and the Azores, our European dignity will not exist! As long as the country called the United States dares to use money, weapons and equipment or even send troops to interfere in internal affairs of our Europe, the dignity of our Europeans will not exist!

What we need is not a Europe that is divided and allowed to be bullied by external powers! But a Europe that unites and dares to defend its own interests and living space from being violated! Such a Europe is not achieved through peaceful negotiations and compromises, but by iron and blood!

All of us Europeans will unite for freedom and dignity! Fight for a new, powerful Europe! Fight for the land of Europe that drives the invaders who try to enslave us and our descendants!

For our descendants to be proudly able to declare: We are Europa who never surrender!

My fellow countrymen, long live Europe and the people of Europe!”

...

With a click, British Prime Minister Churchill reluctantly turned off a radio switch placed in the cabinet conference room of 10 Downing Street.

Then he smiled and said to the cabinet members: "This is the first time I think Mr. Adolf Hitler's speech was very beautiful. Do you feel this way?"

"Prime Minister, on the other side of the English Channel, perhaps many people will find his speech very beautiful." Deputy Prime Minister Attley was still frowning.

The upper class in the UK is now "breaking". Almost every prominent family is divided into two. Those who are determined to fight the Nazis to the end have gone to Canada, while the unstable elements who want to compromise stay at home to prepare for the war of resistance...

"But we will still win," Churchill said with a smile, sucking his favorite Cuban cigar. "There will be the Soviet Union in the United States, and the Germans will soon be enemies of the whole world. Our persistence will finally come to an end. We will become the winners of this war... No matter how difficult the prospect is, we can always laugh to the end."

"But before we win, the Germans will land in southern England." Attley said in a low tone. "The Americans can't help us now, they can't even maintain the Atlantic transportation line."

"But the Soviets can!" Churchill said, "As long as the Germans landed and fought with our millions of troops on the British land, Stalin's Red Army would open up a second battlefield and attack the Nazis from behind."

Although Churchill and George VI have agreed to a retreat where "one brand of each other" is the same, this does not mean that they are willing to give up their homeland.

The ideal situation is to fight the Germans in southern England, using millions of British troops to contain at least 1.5 million of the most elite German troops and more than half of Germany's air force, so Stalin had the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Eastern Front.

"Will the Soviet Union really join the war?" Attley asked skeptically. Although he represented the working class, he did not trust the Soviet Union and GC International. In his opinion, if the Soviet Union ruled Europe, the situation would definitely be better than letting the German Nazis continue to rampant in Europe.

"Yes!" Churchill said with great certainty, "Now that the United States has joined the war. If the Soviet Union chooses to watch, those *** will lose the opportunity to liberate all mankind. Clement (Attley), you know the theory of *** people better than me. Do you think they will give up this opportunity?"

...

"Natalie, how likely do you think Stalin is to attack us?"

On the day when the US and Germany declared war, Hessman, as German Secretary of Defense, did not study how to defeat the United States, but instead called Natalie Lesskaya, the head of the Army Policy Association, to his office and asked the Soviet-German war.

To be honest, Hessman had expectations of Roosevelt leading the United States to join the war. However, he was not sure whether Stalin would fight. Therefore, as early as last year, Hessman handed this issue over to the Army Policy Association led by Natalie for research.

"From the current public opinion orientation in the Soviet Union and the Soviet import and export situation over the past year, Stalin is ready to go to war." Natalie's research is actually to study the official newspapers in the Soviet Union and the foreign trade situation in the Soviet Union, and find clues from it.

"As we attacked the British mainland?"

Natalie shook her head slightly and smiled, "I don't know this... I only know that Stalin is a cautious leader. Therefore, he will not attack Germany without being sure. Perhaps we can use some means to deter the Soviet Union from taking risks, but I do not recommend that you take measures to deter the Soviet Union."

"Why?" Hessman asked.

"Because a powerful Soviet Union is in the eastern part of Germany, it is always a huge threat." Natalie smiled gracefully and said, "Especially when we cannot conquer the United States. Can you imagine the prospect of the United States and the Soviet Union always joining forces to confront us in the next 20 or 30 years?" (To be continued.)
