Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 222: Surrender (2)
Ordering Britain to surrender unconditionally, the German head of state can only think about it in a dream. Weierle's toughness is only to send a signal to the other party. Germany can't cope as easily as the British imagined.
Before Weierle set off, Xu Jungang took a lot of effort to calm the hot heads of the top German army. Your Excellency the head of state has his own unique insights, and he is trying to communicate with the top Nazi party in Germany. Reach some basic consensus. In Weierle's view, the head of state still underestimated his influence on the German people. With his current power and achievements, no German official dared to disobey his opinion.
From a purely military point of view, the German army has already occupied an absolute advantage. The remaining armed forces of the British mainland are no longer able to stop the German army from continuing its offensive. It is already a solid matter to occupy the entire territory. Also in the eyes of most Europeans and even Americans, the once powerful monster of the British Empire is destined to become the fish on the German chopping board. Many people are waiting for the Germans to cut the beast’s throat. At that time, even if you can't eat the fattest loin, you can at least steal one or two ribs to relieve your gluttony.
However, the German head of state knew very well that the problem was not that simple at all, and ordinary people would never understand the huge heritage of the empire that never sets. He wants to completely conquer this ancient behemoth with the power of Germany. It can only be the wishful thinking of some people.
The territory of the empire is not only the British Isles, but also a large number of overseas colonies and dependent countries. This is a huge system built by the British for hundreds of years, including countless outstanding politicians and The results of the efforts of the generals are the crystallization of the wisdom of the British.
In this huge global colonial system, each node and each node are connected to each other, restricting each other and complementing each other. In the end, it constitutes a huge network system involving commerce, military, finance, production, raw material supply and demand and so on. This network not only relies on the close connection of industry and interest chains, but the most important thing is the national characteristics of this system. Most of the people who hold power are Anglo-Saxons who believe in Protestantism.
Relying on this huge colonial network system. The British have accumulated a lot of money, and in just half a century, they have created an extremely powerful empire that never sets. At the same time, the huge power displayed by the overseas colonial network also threatened the British rulers. They may not understand the truth behind carrying a boat and overturning the boat, but these veteran aristocrats have seen a lot of precedents where the tail is too big to be able to raise a tiger.
London’s high-ranking officials and dignitaries tried to put a strong chain on the neck of this monster. The British royal family became the core part of the collar. All colonial governments and residents must tell the royal family Loyalty, every change of governor must publicly pronounce the oath of allegiance to the king or queen. Although most British people usually swear that they can only be heard, but this kind of oath involving royal power is the most sacred and inviolable, and all those who betray the oath will end up miserably.
Xu Jun also agreed with Weierle's opinion because of this consideration. Let him have an unofficial meeting with George VI without outsiders present.
If the various factions in London are like a mess of spider webs, Weierle, who has a lot of intelligence resources and communication channels, is the strongest spider, entrenched in the center of the web. On the night he arrived in the UK, he received dozens of interview requests. The identities of the requesters were varied. Almost all of them were military, police, civilian, agricultural, industrial, and business. There were also a bunch of tempting requests that were sent with the letter. Voting certificate.
Willer knew that the relationship between these people was not as close as expected, but he did not expect that these guys would start to tear down each other before they officially started negotiations. In addition to flattering the Germans, they also entrained a bunch of them. The black material exposed to each other made Weierle compelled to say a word to these British politicians. If he hadn't watched the bottomless performance of those scumbags in the Nazi Party, and replaced them with other German generals, he would really be led by the nose. Being played around in circles.
Weirle suddenly felt a bit pitiful for George VI, who was sitting opposite him. This noble man might not know that he had been betrayed by his loyal courtiers. If the life of King George VI were to be put into five hundred years ago, it would definitely be written as a drama by Shakespeare. This introverted, gentle and easily shy prince was forced to sit on the throne by British politicians.
Before that, he had not received systematic training on how to be a king. He even said that he was unsatisfactory, so that in the early days of his ascension, most of the rituals that required the king to appear were rejected by him for various reasons. Now, he was afraid to expose his shortcomings in front of outsiders. Fear of being ridiculed by others, and even more afraid of being used as a reason Questioned his qualifications to sit on the throne of kings. Fortunately, he inherited part of his father's character, strong and resilient. He understands his responsibilities and is willing to put all his efforts into it. From the perspective of a king, he did a better job than his brother.
But now, this man is facing the most difficult choice in his life. His destiny is actually doomed and will be recorded in the history of Britain as a defeated king. Not only must he assume the responsibilities that he must bear as a king, but the rest of his life will be spent in accusations and abuse from the British. Even after his death, later generations will portray him as a stupid harlequin. Weierle sympathized with this man. The crown on his head was his only culpability.
Sympathy belongs to sympathy, and the task is still to be completed. The purpose of Weierle’s trip is not to sign any agreement with the King of England, but to find out the bottom line of the other party and reach some important points with the King. The consensus of Xu Jun’s plan is crucial to the success of Xu Jun’s plan.
"We know the role of the royal family in the British political system. Since the death of Queen Victoria, the re-emerged parliament and the state religion have continuously infringed on the rights of the royal family. They used various methods, even inciting ignorant people. In order to suppress and limit the power of the royal family. Facts have proved that they have done an excellent job. His Majesty George V is such a strong and courageous person. He also had to bow his head to those forces." Weirle took a sip of the black tea delivered by the attendant. . Seeing King George VI frowning and looking very touching, Weierle continued.
"Whether it is the Conservative Party, the Liberal Party or the Labor Party, the aristocrats or the gentry merchants. They are unwilling and not allowed to appear another Queen Victoria, a supreme who is strong enough to crush them all.
This is normal. They finally stole the benefits that belonged to the royal family. Of course, they were afraid that a wise and determined king like Queen Victoria would take everything back. After all, no one wanted to spit out the fat they swallowed. I think these kings must have been aware of it. "Weiller turned to look at Xuester who was taking notes, and then continued.
"Do you think you can change this situation by fully supporting Churchill? Churchill is indeed full of loyalty to the royal family. This arrogant prime minister is not very popular with the aristocracy. This man's ability to make enemies is much stronger than his political ability. Although he has very superb political skills, he cannot change his reputation for being brave and rude. So he chose to be loyal to the royal family. And your majesty, you also chose unreserved support and trust. He needs the name of the royal family. Come to suppress his enemies and buy out his colleagues, and you use Churchill to fight against the enemies of the royal family and recover lost power.
I admit that it was a good idea, but unfortunately, Churchill ultimately failed. However, I can reveal to you some of the information we have. The transaction between you and Churchill has long been seen clearly by the other party. On the contrary, it also made your two opponents unite. This is not a small force. "
"I admit that you are absolutely right. Mr. Churchill and I are indeed using each other. If this war is won. My plan will be successful." King George VI tried to slow down his speech because of stuttering. Because of this, he was in the audience position most of the time in this meeting, and he would only speak to express his views when talking about the rights of the royal family.
"Even if the war is won by the United Kingdom, you and Mr. Churchill will still lose. Our intelligence shows that most of the Conservative Party members in the upper and lower houses of the United Kingdom have united with the Labour Party, and they have also united. A large number of Liberal MPs opposed Churchill. The nobles in the upper house have even formulated a plan to target Churchill and further suppress the royal family. Once the war is over, Churchill will definitely lose in the next prime ministerial election. You know the methods of those people, in order to achieve Purpose. They are even willing to make a deal with the devil." Weierle pushed a document to George VI.
"This is the list we currently have. You should be able to see many familiar names from above. Your Majesty."
"These people..." George VI choked after only one sentence. He believed that this list was true, because the Germans had no reason to deceive themselves by making false information. Among those familiar names, many of them were his closest advisers and friends, and George VI's eyes were red.
"Before I came to the United Kingdom, His Excellency the Head of State once confessed to me that he was very worried about the situation of His Majesty and the British royal family. After all, the British royal family is inextricably linked with Germany, no matter what name it is converted to. Change the fact that Germanic blood flows in the blood vessels of the British royal family.
Therefore, the head of state hopes to give some help to the British royal family if he can, but don’t have too much hope. After all, the head of state is the leader of the Germans and must be responsible for the interests of the German people. I think His Majesty must have the same consciousness. "Weirle picked up another document.
"Before this, we have a lot of business issues that require the cooperation of the British royal family. Of course, we will try to understand the difficulties of the royal family and will not make you feel too much pressure and trouble."
"I can meet your requirements, but I also have my conditions." King George VI had already resigned himself to his fate, but he didn't expect that things could turn around. This made him feel very surprised, and he did it carefully. A little temptation.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me to state in advance that if it involves the plan made by the head of state, no one can change it except for the approval of the head of state. However, if there is no conflict with each other... please tell me first. , What are the conditions that are within the scope of my rights, I can find a way to solve it." Weirler said to George VI with a smile.
"Edward... Duke of Windsor, my brother is with you now. Although Churchill reports that he is missing, I also have my intelligence channels." George VI asked ~IndoMTL.com~Your Majesty , I can tell you that His Royal Highness the Duke of Windsor is doing well now, traveling with his wife in northern France. "
"My condition is that when everything is over, please allow Edward to return to England and inherit my throne." George VI stared closely at Weierle’s eyes, his fists clenched flat. On the table, it was obvious from the look of George VI that he was very concerned about the answer given by Weierle.
"Except for my head of state, I rarely admire a person so much. Your majesty, I will report to the head of state everything in today’s talks. I will tell the head of state that I have the honor to see a wise monarch here. Great King." Weierle bowed his head respectfully to George VI.
It’s the end of the month. Please vote for the book with all the remaining monthly votes in your hands. Today’s ranking in the first month is a bit unsatisfactory, but I think I should be able to do it last to see what results we can achieve in the end. I would admit that I lost to the brush, but to say the least, I tried my best.
