The Rise of the Third Reich
Chapter 786 Is it legal?
Washington, White House.
Everyone in the Oval Office was stunned.
A radio in the floor-to-ceiling room was playing Princess Elizabeth's speech that changed British history.
There was a "click" and someone turned off the radio switch after the speech. However, no one came to comment immediately. There was only dead silence in the office of the University of Notre Dame.
I don't know how long it took before Roosevelt's sonorous and majestic voice rang out.
"Haha, what a bloody queen! I didn't expect that in a country like the UK with hundreds of years of constitutional tradition, there would be such a princess who blatantly trampled on the "Act of Powers" and the "Act of Succession to the Throne". Not only did she declare her coronation on her own, but she also ordered the army to march to the throne. She is not loyal to Parliament. Such a dictatorship will definitely not be accepted by the British people, Viscount, am I right?”
Sitting opposite President Roosevelt is the British Ambassador to the United States, Viscount Halifax. He doesn't know who he represents now? Is it the Socialist Republic of England controlled by the Social Democratic Workers' Party (the Bolshevik Party changed its name), or is it the bloody Queen Elizabeth who self-declares herself crowned in Buckingham Palace.
"Mr. President," Viscount Halifax sighed, "I think this was not the princess's intention... She may have been controlled by her fiancé, Prince Friedrich of Germany."
"Mr. President, this possibility exists." Roosevelt's confidant Hopkins echoed Halifax's opinion. He paused and then said, "The Blood Queen is illegal, there is no doubt about it... The legal monarch of the United Kingdom should now be George VI, Viscount, what do you think?”
Although the U.S. government secretly helped the British Bolsheviks, it did so secretly, just like the United States helped a certain caliphate in later generations. The U.S. government cannot openly recognize this "caliphate" and send ambassadors.
Therefore, after the Bolshevik uprising, President Roosevelt immediately issued a statement opposing the Bolshevik uprising in Britain and the Third International's gross interference in Britain's internal affairs.
At the same time, he also announced the suspension of all supplies to the Soviet Union (the route to Murmansk was cut off after the Night Battle on the Ice Sea, and Vladivostok on the other side was frozen, so supplies could not be transported. Therefore, the aid route to the Soviet Union was originally suspended) until the Third International announced its dissolution!
The legal government and monarch of the United Kingdom that the US government is now prepared to recognize are of course in Canada. For the United States now, it is very important to control the legal government and monarch of the United Kingdom, because only in this way can the United States order the British overseas empire to abdicate. Royal Navy fleet in Canada.
"The legal monarch...of course is His Majesty King George VI." When Halifax answered this question, he was thinking: Legal? What's the law? Is it still legal in Britain?
Roosevelt asked: "Should King George VI immediately declare Elizabeth's throne illegitimate and disinherit her?"
"In fact, His Majesty the King cannot do this," Viscount Halifax's answer surprised Roosevelt, "because the Succession Act clearly stipulates that the power to determine the succession of the throne rests with the British Parliament, not the King himself. Therefore, only the British Parliament can declare Princess Elizabeth’s throne illegal and deprive her of her status as heir to the throne.”
Roosevelt and Hopkins looked at each other, and Hopkins asked: "But there is no parliament in Britain now!"
Yes, the parliament was dissolved by Fatty Qiu!
Viscount Halifax shrugged and spread his hands, "Without Parliament...then according to the Throne Succession Act, no one can declare the princess's throne to be illegal."
ah! How can you do this! ? How come there are such big loopholes in this "Act of Succession to the Throne"?
"Is there nothing we can do against this bloody queen?" Roosevelt asked unhappily.
Viscount Halifax thought for a while and said: "Only when the British Parliament is re-elected can the new Parliament pass a bill that denounces Princess Elizabeth and deprives her of the throne and inheritance!"
Roosevelt stared blankly at Viscount Halifax, who was speaking seriously, and thought to himself, you really dare to speak! The throne of the Blood Queen is made of iron and blood. How dare a broken council take it away? Why don't you let the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union impeach Stalin?
"President, the top priority now is to help King George VI establish a legal government in Canada." Hopkins knew that Queen Elizabeth's problem had no solution, so he changed the subject and said, "Otherwise, the British mainland army and the British Indian authorities will have May be loyal to this bloody queen..."
There are 2 to 3 million British troops. If all of them are loyal to Elizabeth, London will immediately return to her hands - the British Civil War will be over in less than a week!
And a queen with blood on her hands will have far more power than any monarch since the British bourgeois revolution! If this bloody queen is determined to be Germany's accomplice, it will be extremely bad news for the United States.
In addition, British India, surrounded by German and Japanese forces, is very likely to declare allegiance to the Bloody Queen - after all, in the "Cairo Declaration", the Germans have recognized Britain's rights to India and surrendered to the Bloody Queen to the British Indian authorities. It is relatively safe.
Once India is controlled by the European Community, Europe will be able to obtain a large amount of Indian wheat, chromite, manganese ore and bauxite. Especially once the food produced in India reaches Europe, it will greatly improve the food supply situation of European countries led by Germany... Eating is a bigger issue than legality!
"Viscount," Roosevelt looked at the frowning Halifax and said, "I hope you can go to Canada to help King George VI form a government. The United States will stand with you 100%."
Viscount Halifax nodded slightly. He originally had the idea of going to Canada to help George VI to be a British leader - he was a big figure in the British Conservative Party who rubbed shoulders with Churchill.
"I am very grateful to Mr. President for his support," Viscount Halifax said. "However, the attitude of another powerful country in the world's anti-Nazi-fascist camp is currently unclear, which will seriously affect the king's government in position in the eyes of the British people.”
"The Soviet Union will definitely support the King's government. I can guarantee this 100%! Stalin will soon abandon the British Bolsheviks, and he will also dissolve the Third International... He must do this, otherwise he will lose the support of the United States!" Roosevelt The President understood what Viscount Halifax meant, and he immediately gave his assurance.
Because he knew very well that because Princess Elizabeth had shown unimaginable toughness, the fate of the British Bolsheviks was doomed.
London cannot be the Petrograd of 1917. It can only be the Paris (Paris Commune) of 1871, or even worse than the Paris Commune of that year.
…
When President Roosevelt was lamenting the loopholes in the British Act of Powers and the Act of Succession, London had become a battlefield!
After the Royal Guards swore fealty to the Bloody Queen, the war between the Queen and the Bolsheviks began within the city of London.
The first to be shot were the hundreds of thousands of revolutionary people who gathered outside Buckingham Palace and chanted slogans. Royal Guardsmen launched the attack, backed by tanks and armored vehicles. Of course they are not using water guns and rubber bullets, but real bullets and artillery shells that can kill people in piles!
When the repression - in fact, it can't be called repression, the current situation should be a civil war - the sound of gunfire reached the Provisional Government Building of the Socialist Republic of England (the original Treasury) on Rebellion Street (the original King Charles Street) in London. Building), Representative of the Third International Ivan Maisky already knew that something was wrong!
Because whether this kind of "street revolution" in Europe can succeed depends on whether the country's armed forces can remain neutral or defect. An important reason for the success of the German November Revolution and the Russian February Revolution was that the German and Russian armies at that time did not resolutely support the monarch.
In today's Britain, the vast majority of the military has also remained silent - the military does not interfere in domestic politics and obeys the legal government and parliament. It is a British tradition, and it is not something that a few senior generals can change immediately.
But the Royal Guard was successfully completely controlled by the reactionary forces led by Elizabeth!
Moreover, after having more than 10,000 elite armed forces, Princess Elisabeth (actually controlled by Friedrich)'s tough attitude also made Maisky feel bad.
This is because the situation of the British Bolshevik Party is similar to that of the Russian Bolshevik Party after the August Revolution. It is not very strong and does not have many die-hard followers. If the issue of Constituent Assembly elections had not been used to stabilize the Socialist Revolutionaries and Mensheviks, the revolution would have definitely failed. The situation of the British Bolsheviks was even more dangerous. Their strength was not as strong as the Russian Bolsheviks before the August Revolution. Many of their supporters were actually deceived Labor Party supporters. The revolutionary will of these Labor Party supporters is very weak. If the royal family, aristocracy and the bourgeoisie are easy to bully, they are certainly willing to make trouble.
But now that Princess Elizabeth has adopted resolute and bloody repressive measures, these Labor Party supporters will definitely be scared away. In this way, there will only be a small number of die-hard supporters following the British Bolshevik Party, and the number of them who can fight is several thousand at most (not now) Instead of street politics, it has become politics at the barrel of a gun. It is useless to have too many people marching). They are no match for the Royal Guards.
Just when Maisky felt that something was wrong but was helpless, a cadre of the Third International came to his ear at some point and whispered: "Comrade Representative, our comrades in the Southern Military Region just sent a call. According to reports, German planes dropped leaflets, saying that they would carry out a deterrent bombing of the East End of London tomorrow morning!”
