Iron Germany

Dover, UK.

This is the place where the British mainland is closest to the European continent, and it is also the top priority of the British Army's homeland defense. Dense fortifications have been built on the beach. There are trenches, barbed wire, mines and firing points everywhere.

In the past few months, the British have completely turned this place into a fortress. This aspect shows the determination of the British to defend their homeland. Also, their fears are shown. After all, the opponent is the world's number one German Army. Whether it can withstand the German attack, the British Army is not sure from top to bottom.

Although, the total strength of the British Army has expanded to more than four million people. But the troops they can arm are only more than three million. The remaining troops are not equipped with any decent weapons. Moreover, the armed forces are also seriously short of heavy weapons. There are only a small number of elite troops with relatively complete equipment. But even so, the difficulty of confronting the elite German army in a decent way is still not ordinary.

Several cars drove onto the beach in Dover, but the beach was empty. It was so hot that soldiers were hiding in the shade and no one would be on the beach. Originally, Dover in summer should be full of tourists, many people will come here to enjoy the beach and sunshine. However, when the cloud of war enveloped the entire British Isles, no one had that kind of leisure anymore. We all hope that the war will end sooner. In this way, they will not have to suffer the devastation of war.

Some people got out of the car, led by a tall man. He is the current British Prime Minister Winston Churchill. At his side, he also followed Richard Haldane, the Secretary of State for War, and General Ian Hamilton, Commander of the British Army's Home Forces. There are also other senior generals of the British Army. From their glittering epaulets, it can be seen that these people have very high identities, and they can be described as shining stars.

"Well, these fortifications are well built. If the Germans dare to launch an attack from here, we will definitely make them pay an unimaginable price!" Churchill put down the binoculars in his hand with a look of satisfaction.

"Your Excellency, we have been repairing the fortifications along the coast for the past few months. However, our coast is too long, so we can only build fortifications in key places. We believe that the possibility of German landing in these areas Undoubtedly the biggest," said Ian Hamilton.

"Which areas are likely to be where the Germans landed?" Churchill asked.

"Your Excellency, according to the information we have obtained so far, the line from Eastbourne to Margate may become a key attack target for the Germans. This is the closest to France. If the Germans want to land, they only need to cross the The strait is enough. In addition, the three main German armies are all deployed on the opposite side. Therefore, we can conclude that if the Germans want to land, this line will be their main landing area!" Hamilton continued.

Although, he failed to become the commander of the expeditionary force as he wished, and was given a step ahead by Sir French. However, while staying in the mainland, he became the commander of the local army, commanding millions of troops to prepare to fight the German landing. This is also highly weighted. Even, in the case of war, Hamilton's status has been further improved.

"Are we capable of stopping the German landings?" Churchill asked.

"Your Excellency, the main forces of the local army are currently concentrated in the southeast and London respectively. Your Excellency the Minister of War and I will be the commanders of the southeast and London theaters respectively. If the Germans are really planning to land in the southeast, I believe we It will definitely make them pay an extremely heavy price!" Hamilton looked very confident.

The landing battle is a battle with heavy casualties, especially for the landing party. When sending troops to land, they will be directly exposed to the heavy firepower of the defender. This will cause them to suffer heavy casualties during the landing process. If the defender can build solid fortifications, it will have a better effect. With any luck, it's not out of the question to get the beach red with blood and piles of dead bodies.

"Well, that's good!" Churchill nodded repeatedly.

"Gentlemen, although the Germans have taken the upper hand in this war. The Royal Navy has been completely lost. However, the British Empire will never surrender to the barbaric Germans like this. We will continue to fight , let them pay heavy losses in the battle of attacking the British mainland. I believe that when the losses of the Germans become unbearable, they will compromise. At that time, we will reach a favorable Peace," Churchill said to the crowd. And this is also the goal he has always insisted on.

Churchill knew that it would be impossible to defeat Germany in this war. Therefore, he actively began to plan the next war. Including retreating to Canada once the homeland cannot be defended, and secretly forming an alliance with the Americans, etc. These are all preparations for the future of the British Empire.

Of course, Churchill also hoped to keep the homeland. This is undoubtedly the best result for them. If it can keep its homeland, even if it loses all its overseas colonies, Britain can continue to persevere. Tens of millions of British people will provide them with enough soldiers. After the start of the future war, it is entirely possible for Britain to unite with the United States and other countries to defeat Germany.

If the homeland cannot be defended, the United Kingdom, which lost its homeland, will suffer a great loss of strength. Even if it is united with other countries, it will not play a big role. If the strength is weak, the war dividends they can share after the war will naturally be pitifully small.

Therefore, Churchill hoped that the Home Army would resist the German attack no matter what. In this way, they can keep their homeland. In future wars, they will have a greater chance of winning. Unless it is a last resort, he will never want to give up his homeland.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister!" The generals also replied. They also all know what the current situation is like for the British Empire. If you don't work hard, the British Empire will have no future. Therefore, these generals will do their best in this war.

Of course, it is very difficult to say whether it will work or not.
