Transmigrated as the Crown Prince

After the meeting Clement Attlee telephoned Buckingham Palace. Because George VI was bedridden, he could only report to Queen Elizabeth. "Her Royal Highness, we..." As soon as he started speaking, a feeling of sadness came to his heart, and he almost cried. Who would have thought that the empire that was originally at the top of the world would fall so quickly in less than a year? ! It’s such a vicissitudes of life and things are so unpredictable! !

Queen Elizabeth seemed to have guessed the purpose of the call and sighed softly. "It seems you have decided?"

Clement Attlee sniffed and continued. "Yes, Her Majesty the Queen, the members of the war cabinet unanimously believe that continued resistance will only bring greater harm to the civilian population. However, while London has not yet been completely surrounded, the royal family members can still evacuate the mainland." Churchill last time The royal family was persuaded to evacuate as soon as possible, but Queen Elizabeth did not agree. And now Clement Attlee has the final say.

"Your Excellency Clement, I have said many times that the royal family will never leave." Queen Elizabeth was extremely firm.

Clement Attlee sighed. "Understood, Your Highness the Queen, I will contact Berlin shortly."

In the Berlin Palace, when Yannick and Rundstedt were discussing the situation in Finland, secretary Anne ran in excitedly. "Your Highness, a secret message from London!"

Yannick read the telegram again and sneered. "Tsk, look at the virtues of these so-called politicians, it's really disgusting."

Rundstedt wondered. "Your Highness, the British are unwilling to surrender?"

Yannick shook his head. "No, on the contrary, the British are going to surrender." But the chips these politicians used to save their own lives made him feel that politicians are really the most shameless people in the world.

"Great!" Rundstedt stood up so excitedly, his face flushed, and his words were incoherent. "Your Highness, you have created great achievements that are unprecedented and unprecedented! You are the greatest emperor in Europe. Compared with you, Napoleon is not worthy of carrying your shoes!" These words he said were all Words from the bottom of my heart. Since the Normans brought their strong martial spirit to England, no country has been able to conquer England. (Before this, Britain had always been the target of invasion and conquest. Starting from William I, Britain turned from defense to offense, and subsequent wars were mainly fought on other people's lands. In the 10 centuries after William, France ( (or elsewhere) no invasion of Britain was successful.)

"Haha, Marshal, you are too flattering." Yannick was a little embarrassed by his praise. "I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants." Of course, this giant is called time, history, and knowledge. "Without you generals and marshals who are strategizing and resourceful; without those soldiers who are brave and good at fighting and don't care about death, Germany would not be as glorious as it is today."

These words were very sincere, and Lundstetter's eyes were a little moist. "Your Highness, you are too humble."

After sighing with emotion, Yannick read the telegram again and frowned slightly. "But this doesn't seem to be Churchill's style. From what I know about him, he would rather die than surrender." The most unforgettable thing about Churchill in the original time and space is his role as a politician and anti-French activist. Sri Lanka's indomitable tenacity and fighting spirit that would rather die than surrender.

Not long ago he was shouting, "We will never surrender! We will never surrender! We will fight to the end! We will defend our homeland at any cost. We will fight on the beaches! Fight at the enemy's landing sites! Fight in the fields and streets!" Fight in the mountains! We will never surrender!"

Is such a stubborn old man surrendering now? He thought that the city of London would become a tough nut to crack, and a street battle would break out that was no less brutal than Stalingrad.

Rundstedt asked. "Your Highness is worried about the British conspiracy?"

Yannick shook his head and smiled. "The so-called great force is used to defeat cleverness. Even if the British have any conspiracies and tricks nowadays, they are nothing more than a mantis blocking a car or a cricket shaking a tree. Anyone with a little sense will think of playing tricks at this juncture, which will only bring them more troubles. A big disaster. Maybe the British war cabinet will no longer listen to Churchill's command at this time." Then he gave instructions to Anne. "Call back to London and I agree to their conditions and let them make a surrender broadcast at 12 noon. Inform Dr. Goebbels to be prepared. Once the British make a surrender broadcast, let the people of all Europe hear this as soon as possible. information."

"Let the frontline soldiers prepare to enter the city."

Rundstedt reminded. "Your Highness, the city of London is now half of Venice."

"That's a problem, hey. If these bastards surrendered earlier, they wouldn't have to blow up the river dam. Send naval engineering troops to plug the gap in the Thames Dam. I remember that the Marine Corps equipped a batch of hovercrafts not long ago and pulled them out Come on, let’s test its practicality.”

Since ancient times, ships have relied on buoyancy to float on the water and move forward through power. 90% of the resistance to navigation comes from the underwater part of the hull. If you want to pursue higher speeds, you must increase the propulsion power of the ship, and larger and larger main engines will seriously squeeze the load space of the ship. Obviously, the best way to reduce resistance and achieve higher speeds is to get rid of the constraints of the water surface.

As early as 1917, the Swedes designed a device that relied on air support and operated out of the water. However, due to technical limitations at the time, this idea was not realized. By 1927, the famous Soviet scientist Tsiolsky conducted theoretical research on a device that used air for cushioning. After that, Soviet engineer Levkov further carried out tests on the air cushion model based on his research, and guided the construction of a 15-ton test boat in 1935. Although he later designed a speedboat using the same principle, the development work was terminated due to the outbreak of war, and the speedboat never left the drawing board.

However, strictly speaking, Levkov's "hovercraft" is different in principle from modern hovercrafts, and its practical prospects are not optimistic. However, Levkov is still a pioneer in hovercraft research. Modern hovercraft originated in the United Kingdom. Engineer Christopher Cocker created the theory of peripheral jet air cushion and built the first modern hovercraft No. 1.

At this time, Germany had produced two hovercrafts that were put into actual combat and equipped them with the Marine Corps. One is a light hovercraft named "Yan" class, which has a full load displacement of 6 tons and can carry a squad of fully armed soldiers. Another "Stork" class medium-sized hovercraft, with a full load displacement of 40 tons, is responsible for transporting personnel and light equipment.

At twelve o'clock at noon, London issued a surrender broadcast and ordered all troops to lay down their weapons and surrender to the nearby German troops.

This was followed by headlines in newspapers across Europe.

Neighbors in Germany rushed to tell each other one after another, and the whole country rejoiced, immersed in the joy of victory!
