Transmigrated as the Crown Prince
Chapter 896 Alaska (7)
Alaska.
"Is there any news in the country?" This is what the commander of the Alaska garrison who has been "doing nothing" these days repeats the most every day, while the most common word his adjutant says is "No, Commander."
The garrison commander sighed habitually and asked again. "Did the soldiers who went hunting today gain anything?" In fact, he guessed it without asking. Since a week ago, these soldiers have returned empty-handed almost every day. All the animals that can be shot nearby have been killed, and the remaining ones have fled far away. And traveling long distances to hunt those animals is not worth the gain. Maybe chasing these animals will run into Canada, and they will not be able to chase them.
These damn Canadians! If it weren't for the "shameless betrayal" of these guys, they wouldn't be in the situation they are today. After cursing hatefully in his heart, the garrison commander asked again. "How many days do we have enough leftover food to last?"
"It can support up to 20 days." The rations they are now issuing have been reduced, and each soldier can only receive two-thirds of the normal amount. "If we reduce the amount of distribution further, we can last for a month. But I'm afraid the soldiers below will be dissatisfied." Now the soldiers are living a life of hunger and cold, and there are already complaints. If we reduce the amount further, no one knows what will happen. Something happened. After hesitating for a moment, the adjutant spoke cautiously. "Commander, maybe it's time to make a decision."
"..." Although he did not make it clear clearly, the garrison commander was not an idiot and understood that the adjutant was talking about surrendering to the German army.
As mentioned earlier, in Western civilization, it is not a shame for the army to surrender to the enemy when it is in desperate situation. They think that they are honorable soldiers because they have tried their best to fight for the country. Continuing is just a meaningless sacrifice.
In the Franco-British War from 1754 to 1763, France joined forces with the Indians to fight the British in order to prevent the expansion of British colonies into western North America. Washington participated in the battle with France with the British colonial army, but the result was not good. Washington was defeated and captured. After being captured, he was not brave and unyielding, and surrendered very simply.
Later, the French were defeated and Washington was rescued by the British. He did not suffer any discrimination or suppression because of his defeat and surrender. Instead, he became a member of the Virginia Congress and entered politics. After the American Revolutionary War broke out, Washington relied on his experience in the French-British War to become the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army. He led the Americans to defeat the British and made great contributions to the American Revolutionary War.
Even their founding father could surrender, so their surrender would be nothing. After all, they are not cowardly, nor are they deserters. If the Germans launch a landing war, they will fight bravely to the end and even die. But now the situation is that they are about to starve to death without even seeing the enemy's shadow. It's really frustrating!
"..." The commander didn't know, but he wasn't willing to give in!
It is really unacceptable to hand over such a large piece of land and hundreds of thousands of soldiers to the Germans without destroying even one soldier of the enemy!
But what if you don't give in? With the current situation, unless God suddenly appears and wipes the entire Germany from the face of the earth. Of course, this is just a pipe dream.
Sighing deeply, the garrison commander nodded heavily as if he had made up his mind. "Let the food be distributed normally these days. There is no need to reduce the amount. We will surrender in ten days! Send this decision back to the country and see if they have any better ideas." He hoped that the higher-ups in the country would order them to start from Canada calls back.
Unfortunately, this is not possible. Once they use force against Canada, it will be equivalent to pushing Canada to the German side. Even if the Canadian army could not stop them, the nearly 2,000 kilometers away was enough time for the Germans to intercept them.
In other words, unless some miracle happens in the next few days, they are destined to be prisoners!
"Yes." The adjutant seemed relieved, quickly saluted, and exited the temporary office.
Soon, the telegram from Alaska reached Washington.
After hearing the contents of the telegram, everyone in the conference room remained silent.
After a while, Marshall sighed softly. "It seems that we can only let them surrender." Although they were unwilling to do so, they could not let their soldiers starve to death. Besides, even if they object to surrender, what can they do two thousand kilometers away? Is it possible that the military police should be sent to arrest him? It's better to ask the military police to bring some supplies.
After hearing this, everyone could only nod silently.
Time passed quickly, ten days passed in the blink of an eye, and no miracle happened.
The Alaska garrison headquarters sent a clear communication to surrender to the Germans.
Then the German army landed in Alaska and put batches of American troops on transport ships and sent them to prisoner of war camps in various places.
Yanik is preparing to build a military base and several resort towns there. After all, Alaska is not a place suitable for human habitation (there are more than 1.7 million people in Alaska, with a population of only a few hundred thousand), and there is no need to spend money on urban construction. However, given Alaska’s rich mineral resources, various factories are naturally indispensable.
At this moment Anne walked in, followed by several guards carrying a huge map. They took down the map hanging on the wall and replaced it with a new map, and Alaska on it was marked in blue, the color of Germany.
There is no rule about which country should be in which color on the map. It all depends on the map maker.
And blue is one of the Germans’ favorite colors. What’s interesting is that the blue in Germany is divided into high and low status. The bright and flashing blue is the exclusive color of the nobility. The most beautiful blue is called “imperial blue”. In the Middle Ages, Kaiser Heinrich II specifically ordered someone to use the most expensive dye at the time, indigo imported from India, to make a dark blue robe embellished with stars to demonstrate his supreme imperial power.
Looking at the patches of blue on the new map, Yannick noticed that Germany had unknowingly become the new empire on which "the sun never sets".
Although the British Empire today exists in name only, it is still an empire on which the "sun never sets" in name only.
What’s interesting is that France in the original time and space was still an empire on which “the sun never sets” until the 21st century. Although the French mainland only has more than 500,000 square kilometers, France actually retains a lot of overseas territory, including 11 overseas provincial-level units. And these territories are all over the world, in Africa, Asia, North America, South America, Oceania, and even in Antarctica, France has territories. It became the only modern version of the Empire on which the sun never sets.
