Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 233: The king and the head of state

On the morning of the third day after the German head of state arrived in the UK, a heavily guarded convoy slowly drove into Bijinshan Air Force Base.し[Phoenix/phoenix/please search for updates] Six German three-wheeled motorcycles cleared the way, followed by four Austin official vehicles, which were filled with British police officers wearing black top helmets. In the middle was a Daimler monarch limousine, followed by four Austins full of royal guards, and finally a German six-wheeled armored reconnaissance vehicle suppressed the rear of the team.

The German soldiers in front of the roadblock at the crossing had pulled away the Luzhai and the nail board early. When the convoy passed the checkpoint, all the German officers and soldiers on guard lined up to salute the convoy, while the soldiers on the roadside armed patrol stood in place. Give a gun salute.

The defensive layout of the Jinshan base is more tight on the outside and loose on the inside, because security issues cannot interfere with the free movement of the head of state. Xu Jun has developed the habit of going out for a walk every evening, and when the head of state is relaxing, it is best not to have people in his vision.

After passing through three checkpoints unimpeded, the convoy entered the core area of ​​the station. The motorcycles and guard vehicles successively stopped by the roadside under the instructions of the military police. In the end, the only one that was allowed to continue was the one left. Daimler.

"All stand at attention!" Captain Stark, the commander of the flag guard, gave a loud order, and then he drew out his ceremonial saber and put it on his forehead.

The red-brown luxury car steadily stopped in front of the main entrance of the temporary residence of the German head of state. Xu Jun had already been waiting on the steps with a group of generals and adjutants. When the car stopped, an army major stepped forward to open the door for the passengers. The passenger in the car slightly lowered his head and got out of the car. He first stood still and settled down while observing the surrounding environment.

"Salute!" Captain Stark flexibly danced his blade to complete a beautiful sling, and the soldiers of the Guard Flag team raised their guns to pay tribute, acting like the same person. King George VI can be regarded as a monarch who has seen the world, but the momentum displayed by the Führer's guard flag team at this moment still surprised him. Although the British Royal Guards are also very good at this kind of ritual performance, they always feel worse than these Germans. George VI thought to himself that it might have something to do with military uniforms.

"Welcome. It's nice to meet you, Your Majesty King George." Xu Jun walked down the steps and first reached out to George VI.

"Ah, I am also very happy to meet you. Your Excellency." King George VI quickly reached out and held Xu Jun tightly together.

Although he is far above the opponent in terms of status, the identity of a defeated person is enough to offset all the gaps between the two sides. Looking back, King George VI even felt that he might be a little rude. This is not the time when he can show off his royal power with his accent. So the King of England shook Xu Jun's hand vigorously, trying to make up for his previous mistake. But then he realized that the imperial leader who was seventeen years younger than himself didn't care about these details at all.

After letting go of George VI's hand, Xu Jun began to enthusiastically introduce to the king the people who were greeted at the scene. Among these people, George VI was more familiar with Weierle, and the other names were only in the British military reports. I saw it a few times.

"It's nice to meet you, Your Excellency General... Very happy... Fortunately to meet you...Long admiring your name, Your Excellency General..." George VI shook hands with the German generals present. The manners are very elegant, and the attitude is also unusually approachable. Everyone knew that the king had a stuttering problem, so they all just nodded respectfully. No more polite nonsense.

"Your Majesty, please come with me. In order to welcome you, my subordinates have made a lot of preparations." After the introduction of the two sides, Xu Jun invited George VI into the apartment behind.

This was originally a senior officer's apartment for the Air Force, but in essence it is more like a fully equipped luxury hotel, with beautifully decorated restaurants, ballrooms, bars, meeting rooms, and even dedicated service staff and chefs. But at this time, all these jobs were replaced by German service staff. These waiters and chefs have not received systematic military training. What the army values ​​is their professional skills before joining the army, so in essence these people should be regarded as army employees. They were awarded the military rank only for the convenience of personnel management.

It’s still early for lunch, so Xu Jun decided to chat with George VI during this time. He had read a lot of information about this king from historical records, but he always felt that the United Kingdom What people write is a little unreliable. So if you want to get to know the king in depth, it's better to communicate face to face.

Xu Jun introduced King George VI into the small living room downstairs. Only Weierle and the king’s chief attendant were accompanied by him. It seems that the head of state will discuss sensitive topics with each other from the beginning, other generals and entourage. All knowingly ran to the recreation room and lounge on the other side of the corridor to smoke and chat.

"The weather is good today, Your Majesty King George." Both sides took their seats. According to British practice, Xu Jun talked about the weather.

"Yes, London has rarely had such sunny weather in previous years and this month." George VI replied slowly. He spoke very slowly, trying to speak clearly in every word.

The orderly soldiers walked in with a small cart under the leadership of Disenhofen, and put a delicate refreshment on the small round table in front of both sides.

"I can understand your current mood, Your Majesty. So I think we should throw away the red tape and open and honest conversations. I think this is the real mutual communication. I always oppose the waste of a lot of polite and greetings. Time, especially at this time, is extremely precious for both of us. The British people are still suffering from the pain of the war, and we should not extend this period." After finishing this in one breath, Xu Jun turned Taking the green tea from Disenhofen, he nodded slightly to express his gratitude to his adjutant.

"The empire is now in a difficult situation. We need German support and assistance."

George VI has learned about the real situation in Britain now from Chamberlain. It can be said that this empire is already standing on the edge of a cliff at this moment. If you encounter a caring person pushing it behind you, the final result will be unimaginable.

The situation of weak branches and strong branches that the British central government is most worried about has already begun to take shape at this moment. As for how to change this situation, Chamberlain could not come up with an effective solution for a while. In the end, Chamberlain proposed a solution that is not a solution. That is to obtain the support of a large number of external forces as soon as possible and re-establish a strong image of the imperial central government agency, even if it is a false illusion. It's better than just watching the entire empire system fall apart.

And now the only ones who are capable and capable of helping the British government are the powerful German invaders, the mortal enemies of the British Empire. Chamberlain knew that this idea was a bit unrealistic. Why should the Germans work to save Britain? You must know that the two sides were still fighting in a life-and-death battle a week ago, and it is impossible for them to become friendly federations and love each other a week later.

However, as the prime minister of an empire, especially the prime minister of a defeated country, he does not have the power to pick and choose, even if it is possible. He has to hold it firmly, because he knows how long his body has been unable to support, and must not give up any chance to save this country before he dies. The most likely way to impress the Germans now is to rely on the king to come forward. It is possible that the German head of state should not be very straightforward to reject a king’s request. As long as there is a slight looseness, he will have a way to see the needle. Complete the preliminary plan.

"Is the situation serious? Your Majesty" Xu Jun didn't seem to be surprised by George VI's speech. Holding the blue and white porcelain tea bowl, he slowly skimmed the tea leaves floating on the water with the lid.

"The operation of the Central Council has almost come to a standstill, and the operation of the county and city councils has also begun to become chaotic. The large number of refugees going northward has caused severe pressure on the central cities of the empire and Scotland. At the same time, the defenders have successively disarmed , The public security problem has also begun to deteriorate, and even professional robbery groups that have not appeared for a long time before have appeared.

The police force in the English countryside is limited, especially those bandits who have obtained a lot of military equipment. Although we have tried our best to control the spread of public opinion, panic has begun to spread in some towns and villages. Moreover, most of our emergency supplies reserves have already been consumed. If we can't get them in a short period of time, we may not be able to guarantee even the most basic personal food supplies. "This passage took George VI a lot of time, and he seriously told Xu Jun word by word about the crisis facing the empire. The king's frank confession at this moment made Xu Jun feel in awe, just like Weierle As said, this is a good man, a qualified king.

"I also understand these situations. The British Provisional Cabinet has also made corresponding requirements. We can provide assistance in public order, but your Majesty, you must know that this is not a problem that can be solved in a short time, even if it is For a strong Germany. This is also a very difficult test.

Let’s talk about the issue of materials. The areas involved are very wide. Procurement, storage, security, transportation, and distribution must be considered in all aspects. If we can’t develop a complete and detailed plan, I’m afraid we will invest more , Can only get twice the result with half the effort. At the same time, there must be a clear prerequisite before this. The British government must unconditionally give Germany full cooperation. I don't want our efforts to be hindered by some minor issues. "Xu Jun finished speaking and put the tea bowl on the round table.

"We once gave the Provisional Cabinet a list of the supply and deployment of municipal supplies in London, but so far, none of the items on the list have been realized. I know that Mr. Chamberlain cannot be blamed. He is a serious and responsible person. One thing is undeniable. We know what the problem is. Your corrupt and slow bureaucracy, perhaps only the British can feel satisfied. If we were a German official, I would have let him go to Saxony. Howson smashed a rock." Xu Jun said to George VI with a serious expression on his elbow on the armrest of the sofa.

Seeing that the king seemed a little confused, Mr. Cooper, the personal attendant, bent down and reminded him. "Your Majesty, Sachsenhausen is a concentration camp, near Berlin." George VI suddenly realized that he quickly nodded his head in agreement with Xu Jun.

"You agree with me too, don't you? Believe me, your majesty, in our Germany, this method is very effective every time." Xu Jun turned to look at Weierle and found that his chief of staff was wiping his head seriously. With glasses. Because it would be rude to laugh out loud on the spot, the chief of staff tried hard to hold his breath.

"Regarding the supply of materials, we are negotiating with European suppliers. If necessary, we can even mobilize the strategic reserves in Germany. You don’t have to worry about this. The rest is just a matter of time. You have to know that the deployment is so large. Large-scale materials are not a job that can be completed in one or two days.

In addition, I’m very sorry that we cannot lift the maritime blockade against the United Kingdom for the time being. In addition to route safety reasons, we must also prevent some people from escaping from the sea. These people have been determined by Germany to be responsible for this war. I think you have already seen the list. "Xu Jun sat up straight and opened the cigar box on the table.

"Your Majesty, please allow me..."

"It's okay, you are free, the head of state." King George VI does not smoke, but he never prevents other people from swallowing clouds in front of him. To be honest, he has been used to being smoked by Churchill a long time ago. These days It is strange not to smell the cigar.

"Your Majesty, besides the material issue, what help do you need from the German side." Xu Jun lit his cigar and threw the extinguished match into the ashtray on the round table.

"I hope that the German side can release the British prisoners captured in this war as soon as possible." King George VI asked a little nervously. He knew this was a very sensitive issue, especially since the armistice negotiations have just begun. , Making such a request is obviously not compliant.

"Your Majesty... Are you referring to the British Expeditionary Force?" Xu Jun frowned.

"I don't think it is time to talk about this issue, your majesty."

"But ~IndoMTL.com~The British government must have an army that can maintain the government's authority. Our overseas colonies are already showing signs of trying to break away from the local control." King George VI began to stammer again out of anxiety.

"Don’t worry, Your Majesty, the issue about the release of prisoners of war is very complicated. I must have a meeting with the staff of the command and I cannot give you an answer for the time being. But... I think I might be able to give you an answer. I suggest, what do you think about this plan, we can..." Xu Jun moved the tea bowl on the table aside, leaned over and said quietly to King George VI.
