Battle of the Third Reich

After reaching a preliminary consensus with the senior members of the Army Group, Weierle immediately began his non-stop trip to London. The first stop he planned for was Buckingham Palace, which had been tightly sealed.

The British War Department building is at the northern end of Whitehall Street, turn right and you can see Trafalgar Square not far away, across the street is the famous Great Scotland Yard, the road directly in front of the gate A bronze riding statue of the Duke of Cambridge was erected on the island.

Weirler did not get on the train directly after going out, but walked along the sidewalk to the junction on the north side of the building. He wanted to take a closer look at the London Police Department. When Weierle was young, the relationship between Britain and Germany had become cold, followed by a **** four-year war. Weierle had known about this institution from various intelligence materials for a long time, and it was a pity that he could not see it with his own eyes. This super background board appeared repeatedly in various detective literary works.

At this time, the building was occupied by the German army. To the surprise of everyone, the senior leadership of the London Police Department did not abandon his office and fled. The German army ran into this headquarters with almost no obstruction. The officials of the police department believed The Germans needed their cooperation to help maintain social security and simply stayed at the headquarters waiting for the Germans to arrive.

Facts have proved that their judgments are indeed correct. The Germans were very polite to these police officials, and they did not treat them as captives at all. The German Army did not disarm the police officers. Instead, it provided food and hot soup to the hungry. Officials from Scotland Yard also voted for Lee. Some of their senior police officers directly participated in the German occupation. With the help of these senior ground snakes, the Germans actually took a lot of detours during the occupation.

The police stations in London were all under the control of the German army yesterday evening. The policemen all laid down their weapons. Only the patrols and soldiers scattered in the barricades who insisted on the resistance had brought some trouble to the German army, but they were right The overall progress of the war did not hinder much.

After sunrise, through the cable and wireless broadcast, the London City Hall issued the "Letter to the London Citizen" to the city, and some detained police officers were allowed to return to the street to perform their duties. By about 8 o'clock in the morning, the social order on the banks of the Thames, such as North Walker and Westminster, was basically restored.

However, the martial law in some areas is still going on. For example, several previous core war zones are like the white hall street where Weiler is now. In particular, the area from Trafalgar Square to Charing Cross Street Railway Station was once the last front line of the Lengxi Guard. More than 400 Lengxi regiment officers and soldiers were killed by the German 7th Infantry in this area. Brigade troops annihilated.

The German infantry simply cleared the battlefield after the war, and the roads in that area are still full of abandoned ordnance and destroyed ruins of fortifications. Although the Germans converged the killed British officers and soldiers, they were not spared away. The sidewalk from the river Thames all the way to the square is now filled with the remains of the fallen soldiers covered with a brownish military blanket.

It is now summer. If the treatment is not done early, these bodies will soon rot. The Germans are mobilizing part of their capacity in preparation for transporting these British remains to be buried outside the city. The British Army thanked the German Army for this, and Marshal Ironside personally made a request to the German Command, hoping that the German Army would allow the British Army to send professional administrators to verify the identity of the dead.

Ironside said that although these soldiers participated in the mutiny and shot and killed many senior officers of the Army Committee, let’s not talk about whether they were deceived in this incident. It is undeniable that these people believed themselves from beginning to end It was to defend the British Empire and His Majesty the King. The heroic deeds of these people should not be buried. They have the right to obtain a white stone tombstone bearing their own names and markings with their respective guards instead of a blank wooden cross in the tomb of the unknown soldier. The German side also expressed its understanding and approval of this. The Germans even said that they would send their entourage ministers to participate in religious ceremonies at the funeral.

Weierle walked past the gate of Scotland Yard. Two British policemen and a German gendarme standing beside the main entrance of the police station saluted the German general, and Weierle returned to a German military salute in a smart way. Continue to walk slowly along the sidewalk towards Halifax Square. Weierle’s adjutant and two group army group liaison officers immediately followed the general. A squad of heads of guard soldiers was armed with live ammunition on the side of the road. Before the British government officially announced its surrender, either a soldier or a general Legal shooting target. Even if the surrounding area has been tightly sealed by the German army, it is difficult to ensure that there will be no fish in the net. Setting up secret passages and secret rooms in buildings has always been the strength of the British.

"Major Chester, what do you think of the current situation. General Manstein highly praised you when he recommended you to me." Weiler stood in the middle of Carrifax Square, lifting Looking at the bronze statue of Nelson standing at the top of the towering monument.

"We have won a decisive victory, and if there are no accidents, there will be no repetition of the war. The occupation of the entire British territory is only a matter of time for us." Major Chester was dispatched as the liaison officer of Manstein To Weierle. His supervision work in the 25th Armored Regiment was done well this time, especially during the operation. He also put forward many correct suggestions, so he was vigorously praised by the 7th Armored Division Commander, so that his direct supervisor General Manstein was very satisfied.

Manstein knew that the major had previously worked in the office of the head of state, and his personal relationship with Weierle was quite good, so this time when Weierle asked Manstein to dispatch a competent officer for his dispatch, the Cyprus Army The chief of staff's first thought was this excellent adjutant.

"This is your personal opinion, or the opinion of most German officers and men." Weierle turned his face and looked at Chester.

"Most officers and soldiers hold this view. The current morale of the troops is very strong. Especially after winning London, the soldiers think that the war will end soon, so the battle is very strong. They all hope that in the war Before the end, you can get more military exploits." Xerster replied with a smile, he knew when he was working in the office of the head of state, this general who looks very serious, is actually a very good person, this chief of staff I like to communicate with these young officers in a relaxed manner.

"Yeah, they are right, the war against Britain is indeed coming to an end." Weiler looked away from the statue of Nelson, and he turned to look at the royal boulevard on the side of the square, from Here you can vaguely see the Queen Victoria Memorial in front of Buckingham Palace. The gold-plated statue of the queen shines in the sunlight.

"This war has been going on for eight months in a row. The troops have actually been very tired. They can make them stick to the present and still maintain strong morale. All this is the merit of the head of state. Think about it. Without him, We have already failed in Dunkirk, where there will be a series of glorious victories afterwards. The soldiers are willing to continue fighting because we have been fighting. The German Wehrmacht moves from one victory to another, and everyone gets it The honors and benefits that I had never dreamed of before." Weierle slowly walked towards the exit of the square, and Chester followed him. Several other officers and guards scattered around the square to guard and saw Weier Le was about to leave, and the officers and men began to gather on one side of the square.

"We should go by car, general." Chester suggested.

"Yes, let them drive my car, this is related to the face of the German commander." Weierle nodded his agreement, although there is only about a kilometer away from Buckingham Palace, but walking and full of honor convoy It is completely different in momentum.

Weierle got in a Mercedes-Benz convertible specially prepared for him. On the small flagpoles on both sides of the car were Weierle's German army officer's car flag and the Imperial Defense Force's eagle emblem. Soldiers of the guard flag team wearing black dresses and silver ornaments as ceremonies, driving the tricycle with the mg machine gun and the 82-barrel car in the front, the middle is the Mercedes-Benz car of Weierle, and the other officers sit separately Two Mercedes-Benz followed, and finally two Opel trucks filled with armed SS soldiers pressed at the end of the team.

The speed of the convoy was not fast, but the road was not long, and the brigade quickly bypassed the Victoria Monument and came to the gate of the square fence outside Buckingham Palace. The officers and soldiers of the guard battalion who had been waiting there quickly opened the iron fence door with the British royal coat of arms. The convoy was rolling over the flat reddish brown gravel square in front of the palace and stopped at the gate in front of the palace. Get off the wheel.

Weierle jumped off the Mercedes-Benz and looked up at the huge main building in front of the white Portland stone. This is actually a building added during the period of George IV. The main body of the palace of Buckingham Palace is hidden in this row of buildings Behind.

"What a beautiful palace, Major Chester." Weiler said with a tilted head, and then he raised his hand.

"Okay, let's meet the ruler of the empire now and talk to him about how to end the war." Weierle strode through the middle arched vault door towards the atrium of Buckingham Palace.
