Transmigrated as the Crown Prince
Chapter 161: Battle of Poland (24)
Return to the Polish battlefield.
When Marshal Himigwe, the top commander of the Polish army, learned that the Brasi River Bridge had fallen, he was really shocked. He immediately called the Serchiak military headquarters and ordered them to recapture the Brasi River Bridge at all costs.
"These idiots! Why didn't you lose your heads!" After hanging up the phone, still cursing in anger, the phone suddenly rang. "Your Excellency, Commander." The other party lowered his voice and whispered mysteriously. "Both the British ambassador and the French ambassador have arrived. They are hesitant about Germany sending troops." After saying that, he hung up the phone hurriedly.
Marshal Himigwe frowned slightly. He knew that the other party was the secretary of Warsaw Castle. What dissatisfied him was the attitude of Britain and France. The Germans have reached the Brasi River Bridge, but these guys haven't decided whether to send troops or not?
Taking a deep breath, he dialed the number in the Warsaw Castle and called President Ignazy Moschiecki. "Mr. President, we have withstood the German attack." His tone was so joyful and certain that outsiders would think they had achieved a major victory.
But these words were not meant for Ignazy Moschiecki.
As mentioned earlier, although Marshal Himigwi is a marshal in name, he is actually the de facto dictator of Poland.
More than ten years ago, he participated in the military coup launched by Piłsudski. After Piłsudski's death, the ruling group formed a tripartite situation. They are the presidential faction headed by President Ignazy Moschiecki; the military faction headed by Marshal Himigwe, the Minister of Defense and Director-General of the Armed Forces; and the government faction headed by Foreign Minister Joseph Baker.
Because the marshal succeeded Piłsudski as the most important military director and became the de facto dictator of Poland, he would not report to the president respectfully; the next words were addressed to the British and French ambassadors in Warsaw Castle. . "I can guarantee that the enemy will never be able to cross the natural barrier of the Brasi River. The Brasi River Bridge is firmly in our hands. The Modlin Group Army on the northern front has repeatedly repulsed the German army. Attack, the bodies they left behind were piling up. If we wanted, we could invade East Prussia immediately.
The German and Slovak troops on other fronts (because Poland also took the opportunity to occupy the Cesin district when Germany occupied Czechoslovakia last time, which has always made the Czechs resentful, and now that they have such an opportunity, of course they want to take revenge) also suffered setbacks. Stopped. "
If the German generals heard this shameless exaggeration, they might even laugh to death. However, the Marshal was unable to help himself. If the true war situation was reported, if Britain and France backed down and did not fulfill their obligations to participate in the war, Poland would be in doom.
Because there was no hands-free technology at this time, the French ambassador, the British ambassador, and the Polish president put their heads together to listen to the "good news" coming from the microphone.
"..." The French ambassador and the British ambassador looked at each other, obviously half-convinced by these words.
The British ambassador motioned to the Polish president to give him the microphone, and asked directly after taking the microphone. "Your Excellency, Marshal, I heard that your air force suffered a lot of losses?" He had heard the explosions of German bombers bombing the airports around Warsaw before. If Poland still had aircraft capable of taking off for combat, it would not be possible. Are German bombers so arrogantly wreaking havoc over their capital? Maybe the whole army has been wiped out.
"Yes, our air force has suffered a lot!" Because this kind of thing cannot be hidden, Marshal Himigwe simply admitted it. Then he said with great determination. "But their arrogance will not last long. You will see that the heroic Polish people will never be intimidated by German air raids! We will persist in resisting, no matter how many tons of bombs they drop on Warsaw! Even if Warsaw becomes a piece of land We will fight in the ruins to the end. But I guarantee that their arrogance will not last for a few days. We will start a counterattack when our reserves are in place, and then it will be the end of them!"
"The Polish people are so brave." Listening to his awe-inspiring words, the British ambassador also somewhat appreciated the marshal's optimism. "So, when will your counterattack take place?"
"Three days at most." Marshal Himigwe gave a very clear time. "In three days our army will launch a full-scale counterattack. We will not be soft this time. We will bulldoze the entire Germany. I hope that your country and France will not speak for Germany. Since they started the war this time, they will Knock them out completely. If the Germans want to negotiate peace with us through your country, please tell me something, stupid losers should be punished!"
"Okay, I will convey your words to the people back home." The British Ambassador nodded, already vaguely guessing that Poland was going to suffer again. Just because you still want to bulldoze Germany? Are you afraid that you will be bulldozed by Germany? These stupid guys are on the verge of death and still want to drag the British Empire into trouble?
Marshal Himigwe, who didn't know that the British ambassador had found out, hung up the phone, sighed softly, and rated his acting skills 9 points. Now I just want Britain to declare war on Germany immediately. At present, Poland is not only facing danger from Germany, but the Soviet Union is also ready to take action.
The British ambassador conveyed Marshal Himigwe's "good news" to the British Foreign Secretary at home, Viscount Halifax.
Then a meeting was held with senior British officials. "Marshal Himigwe believed they had gained a considerable advantage and was even considering a counterattack."
"These Poles are bragging!" Chamberlain said with disdain. "They just want us to declare war on Germany as soon as possible." At this time, Chamberlain did not really want to declare war on Germany, because he knew very well that as long as the war started, there would be no end. Either Germany will collapse completely, or the British Empire will fall apart - this is simply a huge gamble with the fate of the empire as a bet!
Lord Admiralty Winston Churchill dissented. "Perhaps the Poles exaggerated their results, but they were indeed fighting bravely. Since we have signed an aid agreement with Poland, we should stand up for them. This is the obligation of the British Empire. If we violate our obligations and betray Allies, then no country will trust us in the future."
"..." Chamberlain glanced at him with some dissatisfaction. Churchill was a "prick" who kept promoting his "German Threat Theory" and long ago wanted to go to war with Germany.
Putting such a congressman into the cabinet is entirely to appease the militant faction within the Conservative Party. But now the militant faction has made up the majority among the Conservative Party members.
A group of people argued for a long time, and finally everyone took a step back and decided to declare war on Germany first, and then decide whether to send troops based on the situation.
