Battle of the Third Reich
Vol 5 Chapter 221: Surrender (1)
Buckingham Palace was originally a standard European-style palace, consisting of a main palace in the middle and a side hall on both sides. In the Victorian era, in order to solve the growing shortage of rooms, the queen ordered a new palace to be sealed in front of the palace. In front of the opening, Buckingham Palace has become a closed mouth since then, and it has a huge atrium unique to the palaces of Europe. ╪╪┝┢┢┞. (《.〔
Walking through the door, Mueller saw this huge square. The ground was covered with red-brown fine stones like the square in front of the palace. It is said that this was a security measure. It stepped on this gravel ground on a silent night. The sound of footsteps will be very clear, which can effectively prevent someone from going into the palace without permission through the night. It is said that the Japanese learned this trick from the British. After the Meiji Restoration, the original loess square in front of the Japanese palace was replaced with this kind of gravel floor. During that period, Japan built a large number of British-style bridges and buildings. It seems that this way you can integrate with European powers.
Weier Lei took his entourage majesticly, accompanied by a group of soldiers from the Yuan Guard Banner striding across the square, standing in front of the real main hall of Buckingham Palace. Weirle raised his head with interest and watched the magnificent palace in front of him. The wisdom and skill of George N. Architect John Nash Nafan was displayed on this building.
Expensive Bass Rock gives the palace a charming ivory yellow. The towering Mediterranean-style gable wall and Roman columns make it look solemn like an ancient Roman temple with white marble under the roof. The embossed flaunted the glory of the empire to all the guests. Weyler recognized it carefully. The embossed in the middle is the goddess of war Athena holding the trident of the sea god, which means that the British Empire is hegemonic to the earth and the sea. It's how the British Empire defeated Napoleon on the second line of Water 6, how the British admired the Roman Empire and hated the Corsican dwarves.
The soldiers of the guard camp occupying the palace have made an honour in front of the main hall. These former guard flag veterans do not want to lose face in front of these juniors. After the test of blood on the battlefield, these soldiers have the temperament of real warriors. They held their chests with rifles and showed the majesty of the old guard flag team to the younger rookies. ╪┠. (﹝. {o[m{
"Welcome to Buckingham Palace, General." Lieutenant Colonel Schmidt stepped forward to salute Weierle in two steps.
"I haven't seen you in a long time, Lieutenant Colonel Schmidt. I'm glad to see you again, and I look good." Weiller and Schmidt had a lot of communication during their service in the headquarters.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Excellency Chief of Staff." Schmidt's exceptional respect for Weiller, who had served beside Hitler, he knew exactly how strong the opposite man was.
"After the matter here. The Yuan Hui will meet you in person. You must prepare yourself early, but before the order is issued, the news should not be circulated." Weierle said to Schmidt in a low voice.
"Understand, General, I always listen to Hou Yuan's call." Schmidt replied calmly, but his trembling arm had exposed the excitement in his heart.
"Okay, take me to see His Majesty the King, I think he's already a little impatient waiting." Weiler patted Schmidt's upper arm.
"Follow me, please follow me. Everything has been arranged, General." Schmidt leaned over to guide the road as Weiler.
The European-style palace has a common feature, that is, try its best to waste space. Most of the palace's rooms are only used to show off various decorations and decorations, or used to hold some official ceremonies. In addition, there are a lot of galleries, Sculpture displays, antique displays, king and queen memorial rooms, various types of ballrooms, various decorative style restaurants, men’s and women’s entertainment halls, and some billiard bridge smoking rooms, etc., are really used as daily life for royal life There are not many rooms, so when Queen Victoria, who is very good at breeding children, is enthroned, it will be because of the insufficient number of nursery rooms and princess prince’s bedrooms, a new outer hall has been built to expand the palace.
Schmidt actually didn't know much about the layout of the palace. ┞┢═┝┟.{. German soldiers were ordered not to move around the palace at will. Now they only guarded the entrances and exits of each floor, and no comprehensive survey of the palace has been carried out.
"I received a call from the headquarters, and I immediately informed George VI. His personal attendant has been waiting here for a long time." Schmidt introduced to Weiller when he entered the court.
"This is Mr. Cooper, the king's inner court attendant." Schmidt introduced Weiller to the middle-aged attendant standing in the middle of the corridor.
"Come with me, Your Majesty is waiting to see you, Lord General." The man in the black dress of the royal servant bowed to Weiller respectfully, and then turned around to lead the way.
Weiller positioned the visit as an unofficial meeting. This has been very clear to Schmidt on the phone, and I believe that His Majesty the King should also understand this. For this kind of private meeting, the royal family has long been very familiar with the routines. Buckingham Palace has a special room for various confidential meetings.
Passing through the luxuriously decorated State Hall showing off the sun, the attendant took Weiller up a hidden staircase in the side corridor. Weiller left Schmidt and his entourage downstairs, beside With only Lieutenant Colonel Chester and the two guard flag guards. The attendant took Weiller around the complicated stairs and aisle for a long time, and finally came to the end of the trip. The attendant tapped twice on the door decorated with fine silver glass mirrors, then reached out and pushed the door open.
"Come in, Lord General, please wait here for a while, and then your majesty will come."
"The two of you are guarding at the door, don't let anyone approach this room." Weiler turned his face and gave orders to the two soldiers.
"Observe, General." The two guard flag soldiers held Weerler straight with their submachine guns in hand.
"Chester, you follow me." Weierle sorted out the military first, and after feeling no omissions, strode into the door.
After entering the door, Weierle first saw the wall of rose red velvet curtains, with embroidered gold edges on the upper and lower edges, and square pillars of the same color exposed between the curtains, decorated with gilt metal grids , Close to the ground is a circle of moon-white wooden siding, the border is decorated with gilt flowers, birds and animals.
In the middle of the room is a standard-sized oak dining table with no tablecloths on it. The carefully polished and smooth table tops shine like jewels. On each side of the table are three armchairs, backs and The armrests are covered with rose velvet pads that match the color of the room, and a small crown surrounded by laurel branches is embroidered with gold thread in the middle of the back.
Weirler now has no windows around this room, and it is indeed a suitable place for secret talks. A beautiful crystal chandelier hangs from the top, which illuminates the room. The British royal family has a chandelier, which has been known for a long time. Almost every room in Buckingham Palace will be equipped with one, because there is no better way to show off the wealth and power of the empire than this shiny giant crystal chandelier. To frighten those buns from the colony, you can succeed every time.
Weierle looked around the room for a week, and there was no one in the room. He was not surprised at all. He began to admire the antiques on the low cabinet. At this moment, the King of England was still on the shelf of the royal family, and Weierle could understand this. It had nothing to do with victory or defeat, but an insistence on tradition. In order to have a good basis for the subsequent conversation, Weiler decided to let the British The king kept the only remaining face.
Weierle admired the vase in front of him. He didn't have much research on this. His Excellency Yuan seemed to like this kind of thing, especially the antiques in the East. Just as the German general considered whether to take the vase in front of him, the two attendants pushed the door of the side from the outside.
"Your Majesty is here." The attendant shouted, then bowed his head respectfully and stood on both sides of the door.
Then a thin middle-aged man appeared at the door. He was wearing a black suit without any ornaments on his body. His golden brown hair was neatly combed, and some oil should be used to see the gloss. During this time, the German offensive really gave him a lot of torture. This once handsome and handsome His Majesty, at this time, his eyes were deeply described as haggard, and he looked at least ten years older than his actual age.
George VI stood at the door and paused, then walked into the room with his head raised. "I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Lord General." The King of England walked to the table and stood still. He said to Weierle kindly.
"It's an honor to meet you. Your Majesty the King, I brought the Empire Yuan greetings to you." Weierle took off his military hat and flat-end hands, and then his boots collided with each other and nodded respectfully to each other.
"Please express my gratitude to your country, and also convey my sincerest regards to him." George VI stumbled and replied in German.
He is introverted and particularly prone to tension. As the heir to the second throne, he was not valued by his parents when he was a child. Years of loneliness and cold encounters caused serious psychological damage, and eventually left a noble prince with a stuttering problem. This is an incurable disease at the medical level of the time.
"Please sit down, His Excellency General Wehrler." George VI had already learned the name of the special envoy from the German army.
After making a courtesy of each other, the two sides sat on the two sides of the dining table, and Lieutenant Colonel Chester was also allowed to sit next to Weierle. After a few seconds of silence, Weierle first said, you come and go, The first highest-level negotiations since the war between Britain and Germany began.
"Your Majesty, don’t worry about the minutiae first. I must remind you that the patience of the Third Reich is limited. We only accept you to lay down your arms and surrender, not a false temporary truce." Weiler tapped with his finger Looking at the documents on the table, he fixed his eyes on George V and said.
At the end of the month, I would like to ask all my bookmates to throw out the remaining monthly tickets. Looking at the rankings, I feel a little depressed. I would like to ask everyone to give them support and push the rankings back up. Only in a happy mood can I write a wonderful article.
thanks for your support. (To be continued.)
