Iron Germany
Chapter 1701 Churchill's Choice
"Your Excellency, the Germans have stopped attacking. They have stationed more than 400,000 people on the other side of the Appalachian Mountains to confront us." David Magson reported.
Prime Minister Churchill nodded: "We can't take it lightly. We must gather our troops for defense. Especially around the mouth of the St. Lawrence River. Prevent the Germans from launching a landing operation with the Marine Corps."
The German Marine Corps performed amazingly in this war, easily defeating the coastal defense forces of the US and British coalition forces many times.
"Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." David Magson nodded.
"Gentlemen, what shall we do now?" Prime Minister Churchill asked.
The American and British coalition forces suffered disastrous defeats in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. The American army lost hundreds of thousands of people, and the British army lost no fewer troops than them. Even, if the British army's losses in Newfoundland and Cape Breton Island are added, the British Army's losses are close to one million. You know, the British Army had only one million in total before the war. Although after the war broke out, more than one million troops were recruited again, but this was already the limit of their mobilization. After losing its homeland, Canada, with its vast land and sparse population, could not allow the British Empire to establish a strong military force.
Prime Minister Churchill no longer has much confidence in this battle. Although the military power of the United States is very strong, it seems that it is nothing more than data on paper. In real battles, they were still vulnerable and were easily defeated by the Germans.
Originally, Prime Minister Churchill wanted to rely on the United States to defeat Germany, and then counterattack the mainland to recover those colonies occupied by Germany. It now appears that all this is nothing more than a joke.
"Your Excellency, we have lost too much in this war. The Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force are almost completely lost. The Army has also lost more than half. Although there are more than one million troops left, most of these troops are The new recruits have no fighting power at all. Once the Germans continue to attack, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to resist the German attack. The Germans can attack along the St. Lawrence River all the way, all the way to Toronto.” Diplomacy. Minister Anthony Eden said.
War Secretary David Magson did not refute this. Apparently even he himself agrees with this statement.
"The wars in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick have shown us the strength of the Americans. They are just a paper tiger. They look scary, but in fact they have no What combat power. The outcome of this war may be doomed. And the British Empire must make a choice. Otherwise, our country may really be destroyed." Anthony Eden continued .
"The Americans still have millions of troops, and they are fighting in North America. They won't really lose that badly, right?" Sir Kingsley Wood, the chancellor of the exchequer, was a little unbelievable.
"Humph! The millions of American troops are like paper in front of the Germans. The Germans only invested more than one million people in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. We have already been defeated and unable to resist. Once more German troops land on the North American continent, there will be no need to continue this battle. In the end, the Americans will definitely lose." Secretary of the Navy Dudley Jazz also said.
"Your Excellency, it is true. The United States is very likely to lose this war." David Magson also echoed.
After one failure after another, the top military officials in the United Kingdom are no longer optimistic about this war. And this means that they are very likely to lose the war. Once this war is lost, everyone is very clear about the consequences.
Prime Minister Churchill frowned tightly. He had successively served as Minister of War and Secretary of the Navy, and he knew the situation of the army very well. After the British government went into exile in Canada, it held power in one breath for more than 20 years. The reason why Britain cooperated with the United States in an all-round way at the beginning was only for one purpose, and that was to preserve the British Empire and allow the British Empire to continue. It would be the best if we could regain the homeland and those colonies to make the British Empire stronger. However, Prime Minister Churchill was absolutely unwilling to see the British Empire step by step towards its demise.
"So, gentlemen, what do you mean?" asked the Prime Minister Churchill. In fact, he had already guessed what everyone meant. It's just that he is the prime minister after all, so many things cannot be said by him.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, if we continue to fight, we will undoubtedly lose. In fact, our country will perish faster. Therefore, we must find a way to negotiate peace with the Germans. As long as the Germans can agree to allow our country to continue to exist Go down, then we'll end this damn war," Anthony Eden said.
"Surrender to the Germans?" Prime Minister Churchill felt a little uncomfortable.
When the mainland was lost, in order to continue to fight against the Germans, he led the government into exile in Canada.
"Your Excellency, as long as we can keep our country, it is not a big deal to surrender to the Germans. I believe that the Germans will definitely put forward harsh conditions. However, no matter how harsh the conditions are, they will not be worse than Our country is completely destroyed. If the war continues and the Germans completely destroy us in the end, then there will really be nothing." Anthony Eden continued to persuade.
The other ministers also nodded repeatedly. For them, keeping the country is also the first priority. In other words, only by keeping the country can they keep their own interests. They and the country have long been bound together.
Prime Minister Churchill thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, contact the Germans secretly. If the Germans agree to let our country continue to exist, then we will surrender to the Germans!"
"Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." The ministers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they heard Churchill's answer. They were most afraid that Churchill would choose to continue to resist. In that case, it would really be the worst result.
"However, His Majesty the King may not agree so easily." Anthony Eden was a little worried.
"His Majesty the King, I will explain. I believe that His Majesty the King also understands that the overall situation is the most important thing." Churchill said.
In fact, during the more than 20 years that Churchill has held the power of the country, there is not much power and influence left by the British royal family. Completely reduced to a puppet.
