As the Southern African Army and the Free French Army advanced northward, preparations for Operation Overlord were nearing completion.
With only a week left until "D" Day, all eyes are on the weather in the English Channel region.
The weather has been very bad recently, and the English Channel is very windy and rough, which will bring numerous difficulties to the landing operations.
The meteorological department predicts that the bad weather will continue. If it cannot improve on "D" day, the landing operation may be postponed.
Rock didn't pay attention to the weather. When Lin Mao and Sidney Milner came to Rock's office, Rock was watching TV.
What was playing on the TV was "Tom and Jerry", a cartoon produced by Americans. In his previous life, Rock always thought that "Tom and Jerry" was produced in the 1970s or 1980s, but he did not expect that it was produced in the 1940s.
Watching the cunning Tom lock poor Jerry in the refrigerator on TV, Rock was completely relaxed.
You don’t need to use your brain to watch cartoons, just relax.
Lin Mao was surprised. He had been working in the Palace of Justice for more than two years and had rarely seen Rock so relaxed.
Lin Mao graduated from Nyasaland University the year before last and came directly to the Palace of Justice. He is a conscientious and responsible young man who is an outstanding young man.
Sidney Milner was also surprised. The surprising thing was that Rock was actually interested in cartoons.
"Good news or bad news?" Luo Ke motioned Lin Mao to turn off the TV.
"The weather forecast department can't predict the weather. It's a joke. I feel like the weather forecasters are just bad guys -" Sidney Milner was annoyed.
Rock feels normal.
Don't underestimate weather forecasting. It is a very complex science that has not been truly mastered by people until the 21st century. Now people have just begun to study weather.
"Even if the weather is bad on 'D' Day, we must take action." Rock was determined. If we didn't take action, we would have to watch the Russians occupy Berlin.
The greatest value of Berlin to southern Africa lies in the black technologies of the Third Reich. Even if southern Africa cannot obtain them, the Russians or Americans cannot obtain them.
This may sound a bit despicable, but it must be done from the perspective of southern Africa.
Moreover, Rock is also very curious. Since Mustache came to power, Germany's technology has advanced by leaps and bounds. Rock sometimes wonders whether there are aliens helping the Germans.
Southern Africa's technological development is based on strong human resources, material foundation, and decades of continuous investment.
It has only been a few years since Mustache came to power, and Germany has gone from being in ruins to sweeping across Europe, which is completely unreasonable.
Rock hopes to capture Berlin before Russia does, so that Southern Africa can bring all German technology and talents to Southern Africa, just like it did after the end of the last world war.
Looking at it this way, it is not surprising that the Germans can rise quickly. After all, they still have a foundation.
"Our British friend seems to be in trouble. Someone is targeting him. Would you like to give him a gift?" Milner said, referring to Winston.
The British are not only good at digging holes for their allies, but they are also good at fighting among themselves. When they are cruel, they will not even spare their own people.
The British have strong intelligence capabilities in southern Africa, and Locke knows the twists and turns of the British Parliament better than Winston.
Milner's attitude is obvious. Brad's office can help Winston as long as Rock agrees.
Rock thought for a while and slowly shook his head.
Help depends on the situation.
If Britain is weak, Roark will not hesitate to lend a helping hand, so forget it.
Britain is now in a wartime cabinet, and Winston does not need to face electoral pressure. Otherwise, given the current situation of British public sentiment, Winston will probably not be able to succeed in the Labor Party.
This has nothing to do with prestige, the British will be grateful to Winston for leading Britain to win the World War.
But the British will not forget the rationing system that Winston implemented in Britain in order to win victory, and his cruelty in suppressing strikes.
The British are so entangled, and this can be regarded as a British-style distinction between love and hate.
"If we don't help, Winston may be abandoned by Britain after the war -" Milner felt sad for his friend. This was not the first time that Winston was abandoned.
After the last world war, Winston was abandoned and was once sent to southern Africa as governor-general.
Winston was so disappointed that he broke away from the Conservative Party and became an independent.
This time it is like this again, the war is not over yet, the conspiracy against Winston has taken shape, and even the King of England is digging a hole for Winston.
The Duke of London is something most people can't afford, and the king is afraid that his success will shock his master.
"I prefer the Labor Party to come to power than Winston." Roque is not worried. Even if Winston is desperate, he can go to southern Africa to live out his life. This is Roque's promise to Winston.
There is a saying that despite Winston's shortcomings, he is a greater threat to southern Africa than the British Labor Party.
Previously, Winston could not get enough support from Rock, so he turned around and went to Washington to increase cooperation with the United States.
If it were the people in the British Labor Party, and Rock would hit him with a sugar-coated cannonball, they would come over.
Sidney Milner understood clearly that Winston was at least a political strongman, while the petty bourgeoisie in the Labor Party were very weak.
Sidney Milner came to Roque, hoping that Roque would increase his support for the "New League of Nations".
Although the League of Nations has not yet been officially dissolved, it is on the verge of dissolution. After the world war is over, a new international organization will definitely be needed to replace the League of Nations. At the very least, countries must have a communication channel and cannot declare war at the slightest disagreement.
"Find a place in Pretoria to build a new headquarters of the League of Nations and move the League of Nations here." Roque started in advance and moved the League of Nations to southern Africa to seize the opportunity.
"The headquarters of our Southern African Union is in Pretoria -" Milnalho worried.
"Then Los Angeles or Whale Bay will do." Rock is not conservative, and the UN headquarters in another time and space is not in Washington.
"Then let's go to Los Angeles -" Milner chose Los Angeles. Whale Bay was inferior in all aspects, and Los Angeles was the most suitable.
As for Los Angeles City, the Nyasaland State Government and the Los Angeles City Government are very excited about the arrival of the League of Nations, and Los Angeles City is fully capable of being prepared to receive it.
After sending Milner away, Rock continued to watch "Tom and Jerry".
A standard American big house with a sumptuous dining table appeared on TV. I guess the author didn't know that there are still many hungry people in the world. Tom and Jerry were fighting and accidentally swept a table of sumptuous food to the ground.
Rock also didn't realize how much of an impact this scene would have on people in poor areas.
It won't be that big. Really poor areas don't even have TV, so you can't see this scene at all.
After all, it is a cartoon, so you can’t be too picky. For most people in southern Africa and the United States, although the cartoon is a bit exaggerated, it is not too outrageous.
But for some people, Southern Africans and Americans are too wasteful, especially in their attitudes toward food.
Still at the Portsmouth Military Port, as Operation Overlord approaches, more and more troops are stationed in Portsmouth. The U.S. 1st Airborne Division, which has just arrived at Portsmouth, is stationed here. They will follow the First
Wave attack troops launched a landing operation in Normandy.
There is only one week left before Operation "Overlord". Referring to the Battle of Sicily, the airborne troops are in trouble, so since the 1st Airborne Division arrived in Portsmouth, the security in Portsmouth has deteriorated again, and the military police have been dispatched frantically.
The sobering room was filled with drunk American soldiers.
The logistics in Portsmouth are all provided by Southern Africa. The logistics standards of the US military are similar to those of the Southern African army, which is regarded as a luxury in the eyes of most British people.
An army of tens of millions of people consumes astronomical amounts of various materials every day. Food alone is calculated in units of "thousand tons." The 1st Airborne Division throws away tons of food waste every day.
These kitchen wastes have become the treasures of the people of Portsmouth. Every day, people wait outside the camp of the 1st Airborne Division for the garbage truck to take out the garbage.
Americans are indeed wasteful. They throw away whole loaves of uneaten bread. If you don’t like the taste of canned food, you will throw it away after taking one bite. If there is even a little bit of rot on the apple, you will throw it away completely. These things are not suitable for ordinary British families.
All have great appeal.
The garbage truck that goes out every night is the most valuable. In order to ensure the health of American soldiers, the US military's freshness standard for vegetables is 24 hours, and all vegetables that exceed 24 hours are thrown away.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the garbage truck drove out of the 1st Airborne Division camp on time.
Some children who had been waiting at the entrance of the camp early in the morning followed the garbage truck and ran wildly. Before the garbage truck stabilized, the British who were still waiting swarmed up and scrambled for it.
It is normal for quarrels and even physical conflicts to occur at this time.
The two truck drivers were not in a hurry and squatted nearby to watch the excitement. They did not notice that in the bushes dozens of meters away, a photojournalist was using his camera to secretly record all this.
As a result, the major British newspapers the next day were very lively.
"Countless people die miserably from hunger every day, but American soldiers are wasting precious food!"
This is the front page headline of The Times, which is slightly conservative.
The Daily Mail was very explosive: "British people are scrambling for trash that Americans don't want, and our poor self-esteem is being trampled on!"
What’s even more shocking is that the front page of Corriere della Sera is a photo of two American soldiers crouching nearby and watching the fun, with several British men fighting in the background.
Almost instantly, the self-esteem that the British have always been proud of suffered a huge blow.
This was the empire on which the sun never set.
What is America?
The United States was a former British colony, and the British once set fire to its capital. Restaurants in Paris still have signs saying "Americans and dogs are not allowed." Why do American soldiers in the UK dare to be so outrageous?
At this time, certainly no British would think about whether American soldiers could go to Paris restaurants to eat.
The focus of public opinion immediately focused on American soldiers.
Still in the British Parliament, Labor leader Clement Richard Attlee immediately attacked Winston.
"Americans have American living habits, and this is not something we should interfere with - to say the least, in another week - no, in six days, those American soldiers will parachute into Normandy to greet their generals.
It will be the tracks of German tanks and the shells of anti-aircraft guns, so it is understandable that they are a little more arrogant." Winston was very angry. Britain also has a press censorship system, but last night's newspaper clearly bypassed the British press censorship agency.
Otherwise these reports and photos would not be published in newspapers at all.
The reason is also very simple. The War Cabinet was a coalition government, and the Labor Party was responsible for press censorship.
"Even if those American soldiers are going to die in a few days, can they insult us British so unscrupulously?" Attlee roared wildly, and most of the surrounding MPs looked at Winston with unkind eyes.
This matter cannot be explained. In principle, it is their business how the American soldiers use the supplies provided by Southern Africa. The British have no right and should not interfere.
Although the behavior of the two watching American soldiers was inappropriate, they did not do anything too extreme. At least the Americans did not exchange canned food and luncheon meat for the opportunity to learn German from German women like they did when they were stationed in Germany.
Oh, I almost forgot, Americans also speak English, so there is no need to learn English from British women.
But you can learn to cook from British women.
Or just chat.
"Gentlemen, please clarify the fact that our enemies have not disappeared. They are waiting for us to come to our doorstep on the other side of the strait. If we don't have those American soldiers, we will have to send our children to fight them to the death.
Is this what you want?" Winston also roared. This shouldn't be said, but Winston couldn't care anymore.
There must be American eyes and ears in the British Parliament. It is estimated that the Americans will know what Winston said in Parliament within half an hour at most after the meeting.
"If we lose our dignity, then even if we win the war, what's the point?" Attlee is compassionate and compassionate. This is both responsible and established.
"How about putting it another way, like we lost the war but protected our dignity?" Winston was rarely sharp. During this period, he was also mentally and physically exhausted and put too much energy on Congress.
Attlee was quite smart and didn't completely break up with him.
But this matter is not over yet, the contradiction has only been temporarily covered up.
There are not only American informants in the British Parliament, but also members who have close relations with southern Africa.
Shortly after the meeting, Gavin learned what had happened in Congress.
Gavin could only be glad that the British reporter did not go to the military camp in southern Africa with his camera to wait for news.
Although the federal government of Southern Africa has been educating Southern Africans to cherish food, if you want to find news about camps with tens of thousands of people, you will definitely find them.
"Is Attlee crazy? Why would he do this?" Gavin was puzzled.
"He's not crazy, but he's almost crazy." Yang Smozi sneered. Some people just don't stop for a moment.
