Battle of the Third Reich
Vol 6 Chapter 60: Secret Discussion (middle)
The content of Davidson's telegram is not long, and the content is not very detailed, but it is enough to let Xu Jun understand what happened.
"I have changed my mind now, my esteemed lord, I think I need a cup of coffee now." After listening to the German head of state, Attlee felt that his brain was a little hypoxic.
"Eric, bring a pot of coffee to His Excellency." Jun Xu turned to the adjutant.
"Thank you, I hope to make it thicker." Aideli raised a hand to remind.
"Observe, please wait, Lord Adrien, my head of state." Disenhofen walked out of the reception room and closed the door of the room.
Aideli looked up at the alabaster sculpture decorated on the roof, digesting what he had just heard. Xu Jun lowered his head and played with the platinum cufflinks on his shirt, without disturbing the idea of the British envoy. A strange tranquility.
"My head." Weierle's voice sounded in the corner of the room, and Xu Jun quickly turned to look around.
"The order has been communicated. If you allow it, I want to go to the communication office to wait and wait for the response from there." The chief of staff stood up and reported.
"Go, please inform me immediately if there is new news." Xu Jun nodded and agreed.
"I'll call Colonel Dougan to come and replace me. Is there any other need? My head." Weiler put on his military cap.
"Not yet, General Weiller." The head of state shook his hand.
"Well, I will inform you personally when there is news, hi! Reinhardt!" Weiller saluted, opened the door and walked out of the room.
"I'm sorry, esteemed sir, I just lost my mind." Aideli looked awake like a dream and apologized to Xu Jun.
"It doesn't matter. When I got the news, I was just as surprised as you." The German head of state waved his hand generously.
"Can I take the liberty to ask you, Germany's attitude towards this matter?" Attlee asked carefully.
"German attitude?" Xu Jun leaned against the backrest of the sofa, his elbow pressed against the armrest covered with soft leather.
"Yes, that's your attitude." Attlee nodded.
"For this matter, I can't make a decision yet." Xu Jun twisted his body on the sofa and changed to a more comfortable sitting position, with his left hand supporting his cheek.
"How come, isn't this a very serious diplomatic incident?" Attlee's mouth grew exaggerated.
"Your Excellency Adelie, how do you think the British Cabinet and Parliament will react to this matter?" the head of Germany asked.
"I can't make a prediction yet. I don't even know if London has learned about it. According to the usual practice, the Prime Minister will hold a cabinet meeting, and the House of Commons will also discuss the matter. Although it happened in remote China Incident, but considering that for nearly half a century, the British Empire has never been so directly violated in Asia, the Parliament will definitely respond with a very strong response." Attlee is a veteran politician, and the current mainstream thinking in Britain Have a very deep understanding.
Although the British Empire was unfortunately defeated, it does not mean that they will give up the pride and dignity of the British. The so-called tiger's death does not fail, which is the case.
Whether it is official or private, Britain is struggling to find a reason for the defeat. It is obviously not enough to tout how strong Germany is, and it is not enough to balance their self-esteem. Nowadays, the streets of London are full of various tabloids. There are various kinds of inside stories on it. The title is either a secret or a secret record. The content is detailed and detailed, which makes people doubt whether the guy who wrote the article has sneaked into the archives of the Parliament building.
Attlee knew very well that what stood behind these newspapers was the current British government. The author might be a member of the House of Lords or even the confidant of Prime Minister Churchill. Otherwise, with the help of an ordinary tabloid newspaper contributor, how could it be possible to know so much confidential information that would not be accessible to ordinary people.
I heard that Churchill was squatting in the Tower of London to write his memoirs. The former prime minister was ready to bear all the responsibilities of war, which might be unfair to him, but someone must come to bear this pot.
It seems that it is a little far away, just to explain that the British Empire is now in a period when the spirit of the people is the most fragile and the most sensitive. Arrogant, at this time, as the highest commander of the German occupation forces in the UK, during this period of time, he showed an exceptionally low-key attitude, and would not easily step out of the barracks gate.
It can be expected that this incident in the Far East will be regarded by the British people as a blatant provocation to the British Empire, and may even be extended to the contempt and mockery of the Anglo-Saxon people by the Japanese nation.
"What kind of tough response do you think Britain will make?" Xu Jun moved his legs and gave way to Disenhofen carrying the tray.
"This is the coffee you want, Your Excellency. I have prepared a cup of hot milk for you, my head." Disenhofen put the coffee and snacks in the tray on the coffee table and personally steamed a cup of steam The milk was placed in front of Xu Jun.
"Thank you, Eric." Xu Jun nodded and thanked the careful adjutant.
"It depends on the resolution and what the Prime Minister thinks. I can't make an accurate prediction yet." Attlee nodded to Disenhofen, then picked up the coffee pot and poured himself a cup of coffee.
"I hope I can get in touch with London as soon as possible. Prime Minister Chamberlain will surely ask about your attitude on this matter. How should I reply to Your Excellency?" Attlee is not ready to give up. Indeed, in this matter, the German Head of State Attitude matters.
After the relationship between Japan and Britain gradually became estranged, they began to cooperate with Germany. The two countries have been in close exchanges. The investigation report of the British intelligence agency pointed out that there may be a secret covenant between Germany and Japan, and it is very likely to prepare for a joint Start to divide the colonial interests of the Far East.
However, judging from the current situation, it is not exactly what it was written in the report. Adelie believes that MI6 has once again proved by facts that this organization is all a group of waste. The so-called intelligence analysis experts are totally unreliable. Spectrum.
In the past six months, Germany has already had several conflicts with Japan. The German head of state has always been very tough in dealing with the aftermath, unlike the attitude towards allies.
"You can tell Prime Minister Chamberlain that Germany and the United Kingdom are allies. No matter what decision the United Kingdom makes, Germany will stand firmly on the side of the United Kingdom." Xu Jun put down the milk glass and took a small napkin on the table and wiped his lips. .
"If Britain is attacked by foreign enemies," Attlee's eyes were full of anticipation.
"Your Excellency, you don’t need to remind me of this. We have signed an alliance treaty between our two countries, haven’t we? Once the United Kingdom is attacked by other countries, the Great German Empire and its allies will provide their full support to the United Kingdom. Vice versa." Xu Jun spread his left hand and shrugged.
"Thank you very much, esteemed sir. I am completely relieved to receive such a definite answer from you." Aideli respectfully owed his thanks. With the assurance of the German head of state, the British Cabinet was more confident in handling this matter. .
"However, I think the current situation in the British Empire is not suitable for launching any large-scale military operations in the Far East. Unless we have evidence to prove that this armed conflict in Shanghai triggered by the Japanese Army is indeed aimed at the British The interests of the Far East are at the same time premeditated government actions, otherwise we cannot regard them as acts of war against the British Empire." Xu Jun said seriously.
"This is of course, Your Excellency, this is of course." Attlee nodded in agreement.
"As you said, the British Empire is indeed unable to bear a war thousands of miles away. In this incident, I personally think it is better to use diplomatic means to resolve it. At the same time, I also hope that Germany can Consistent with the British government." Attlee removed the coffee cup.
"I think I have made it very clear just now that Germany will definitely be on the side of allies. I also support your view that Britain should use diplomatic means to resolve this incident. Japan has a fairly strong armed force in the Far East. Were unable to engage in direct military confrontation with them in the Asian region." Xu Jun poked the armrest of the sofa with his finger.
"Your Excellency, I think we should reach a consensus now that we regard the Japanese empire as a real threat to Europe. This country has embarked on a path of pathological development. Sooner or later it will violate the interests of European countries in the Asian colonies. .. And as far as I know, a series of changes in Japan during this period made people feel very uneasy." Adelie said.
"I agree with you, Your Excellency. I have also noticed these issues, so I will send a special envoy to Japan in order to reach an agreement with Japan that everyone can accept, as reasonable as possible. Within the scope, guarantee the security and stability of European countries in the Asian colonies."
"As long as they continue the war to invade China, the situation in Asia will not be stable. I think it's time to wake up the hot heads of the Japanese who have burned. To make them understand that they want to challenge European countries, they will It will pay an unbearable price. I heard that a pan-Asianist theory has emerged in Japan, claiming to liberate Asia from European colonizers. It is ridiculous that while they are saying this, they are Burning and looting on Chinese territory." Attlee said with a sneer.
Hearing Attlee's sarcasm, Xu Jun finally resisted the vomiting. The Japanese did not learn from your British, used force to occupy the territory of other countries, plundered each other's wealth, and enslaved each other's nationals. On the other hand, he said that he brought the seeds of civilization to the other party and spread advanced ideas and systems.
In the history of Japan, the surviving dead red deer still refused to accept defeat. They have been eloquently proclaiming that Japan is following the path that the Western powers have always followed. Why do you go white, and our yellow skin can't go .
The Japanese only looked at the expansion history of European colonists and acquired advanced military technology from some Western countries. They thought they had learned the essence of Western colonists. They have never seriously considered the greedy and powerful Western colonists, why they are only satisfied with free trade rights and a few concession colonies when facing the most vast and rich countries in Asia.
The **** Showa Red Deer thought they were invincible under the blue sky, so they recklessly rushed towards the mainland of China and waited until they figured out the wrong taste, but they could not climb out of the quagmire.
"You are right. Your Excellency Adelie should really calm the minds of those Japanese people, but I think using force to threaten is not a good way. We can have another better choice." Xu Jun smiled Speaking to Attlee.
