The image of the devil "carries the war to the end"

Churchill was born into an aristocratic family in England. His ancestor John Churchill was made Duke of Marlborough by Queen Anne in 1702, because he supported William III in the "glorious revolution" and won as commander-in-chief of the army in the wars against Spain and France. /kloc-among the 20 duke families outside the British royal family in the 0 th and 9 th centuries, the Mabalo family ranked tenth. Churchill's father, Lord Randolph Churchill, was the third son of Dukedom of Marlborough VII, the founder of the Conservative Primrose Club (a faction of the Conservative Party, mainly the working class), and served as the finance minister in the cabinet after the Prime Minister. Churchill's mother, Jenny Jerome, is the daughter of Leonard Jerome, an American millionaire and one of The New York Times's shareholders.

Prime minister of wartime cabinet

/kloc-on the morning of September, 2000, a few hours after the war broke out, Chamberlain summoned Churchill and invited him to join the wartime cabinet. On September 3rd, Churchill was re-appointed as Secretary of the Navy. Due to the unsatisfactory progress of the war, members of the House of Commons put forward the motion of no confidence of Chamberlain's government in May 1940, aiming at Chamberlain. On May 8, Chamberlain's government won a vote of confidence with only a majority of 8 1 vote, but Chamberlain felt that he could not continue to be in power, so he was ready to form a Coalition government and give up the post of prime minister. He had hoped to be succeeded by Lord Halifax, the foreign secretary and an active implementer of appeasement policy, but he failed to get Churchill's support. Chamberlain knew very well that once Churchill left the cabinet, he would collapse. In addition, the Labour Party severely punished Chamberlain and made it very clear to him that it would no longer support the cabinet led by Chamberlain or his cronies. So Chamberlain had to submit his resignation to the king and suggested that Churchill form a cabinet.

Churchill's first visit to France after taking office. He was surprised to learn that France was about to surrender, but he made it clear to the French leaders that Britain would continue to fight even if France was defeated. On May 26th, Churchill ordered the withdrawal of British troops stationed in France, and the Dunkirk retreat codenamed "Generator Plan" began. In just eight days, the allied forces trapped in a small area around Dunkirk miraculously evacuated more than 330,000 people. The government appealed to British coastal residents to use their boats to rescue taxi soldiers across the Taiwan Province Strait, and officials from the Lian Haijun Department personally joined in the rescue. On June 4, Churchill reported the success of Dunkirk's retreat in the House of Commons, but also reminded that "the war was not won by retreat." Then Churchill delivered what was probably the most inspiring speech in World War II:

We will fight to the end. We will fight in France, we will fight in the sea, we will fight in the air, we will continue to strengthen our confidence and strength, we will defend our homeland at all costs, we will fight at the beach, we will fight at the enemy's landing site, we will fight in the fields and streets, and we will fight in the mountains. We will never surrender, even if our island or most of it is conquered and starved to death-I never believe this will happen-our imperial subjects overseas, armed and protected by the British fleet, will continue to fight until the new world comes up with all its strength to save and liberate the old world when God thinks it appropriate. "

On June 13, Churchill visited France for the fifth and last time as Prime Minister. He hoped to lobby the French government to continue fighting, but it was obvious that the French government had decided to surrender. On June 6th, 2007, General Charles de Gaulle arrived in England. The next day, Churchill gave another pep talk in the House of Commons: "Let's bravely undertake our obligations, so that people in the British Empire and her Federation can still say this after 1000 years:' This is their most glorious moment. ""In August, the Battle of Britain officially started, and the British and German air forces conducted the first large-scale air combat in human history. During the campaign, the Germans dispatched 1000 sorties a day on average, while the pilots of the Royal Air Force were at a disadvantage in number, and one person had to perform tasks about three times a day. On August 20, Churchill praised the heroic performance of British Air Force pilots in the House of Commons: "Never before have so few people made such great contributions to so many people in the field of human war. "On September 7th, Germany decided to stop air combat and bomb London instead, which gave Britain a breathing space and was also the most important turning point in the British campaign.
