Chapter 531: Shameless (3100 votes plus updates)
??The strategy of the German army, after defeating France, is about to attack Britain. Of course, the prerequisite is that Britain does not surrender. In this case, the German army will land in Britain.
??However, Qin Tian wished that the British would not surrender. In this way, the powerful German army will have the opportunity to land on the British Isles and smash Britain into ruins. Although, it is inevitable that Britain will lose in this war. However, Qin Tian had to admit that Britain's industrial foundation was still very strong, and they would be able to re-arm if given a period of development. At that time, for Germany, it will also be a big threat. Therefore, Qin Tian wanted to take advantage of this war to defeat Britain once and for all and completely solve it.
?? What's more, if it is a negotiation, no matter what kind of harsh conditions are proposed, it will undoubtedly be much worse than defeating Britain and then slaughtering it at will. After defeating Britain, Germany can slaughter Britain according to its own intentions, and the British have no way to object to this. They have become meat on the chopping board. What's more, after the flames of war are burned to the British mainland, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow to the British industry.
??In addition, Qin Tian also planned that after the war, the new British government cabinet must be a pro-German government cabinet. In this way, it is possible to ensure that Germany's interests in the United Kingdom are guaranteed. At the same time, Britain was also under German control.
?? This requires supporting a group of pro-German talents. General Allenby, commander of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force, is undoubtedly a very suitable candidate. If he can show his loyalty to Germany, it is entirely possible for him to be a Minister of War in the future British government.
??General Allenby, commander of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force, was circling in his office. Now he is also very summoned. He feared that the German side would not accept his surrender. Although, he thinks this possibility is undoubtedly very small. However, he was also afraid of accidents.
"No, absolutely not, the Germans will not refuse our request. Our surrender will be very beneficial to the Germans." Admiral Allenby told himself like this, as if doing so would Same with confidence.
?? "General, I'm back." Major Edward reported.
?? "Major, what do the Germans say? Have they accepted our request?" Admiral Allenby asked hastily.
?? "General, the Germans agreed to our request. They almost agreed to our request. It's just that they asked us not to take away the cultural relics looted from Paris." Major Edward said.
?? Admiral Allenby frowned, but finally nodded. Although, with the intention of making a fortune, they quietly looted a lot of cultural relics and antiques from all over Paris. Originally, I planned to bring these things back to the country, and sell them after the war was over, and I could make a lot of money. But unexpectedly, the Germans would not allow them to do so.
?? Admiral Allenby thought about it, and in the end, saving his life was the most important thing. Only by saving his life, can the rest be successful.
?? "Okay, Major, please tell the Germans that we accept their conditions and hand over all the cultural relics and antiques to them." Admiral Allenby said.
?? "Yes, General." Major Edward breathed a sigh of relief at this time. He was still a little worried that General Allenby would not agree. Now it seems that he is completely worrying too much. With Admiral Allenby's greed for life and fear of death, how could he refuse the German's request?
??Major Edward rushed to the German headquarters overnight to inform the German army about this. And discuss the specific matters of surrender.
??Admiral Allenby also summoned the commanders and division commanders of the 4th Army of the Expeditionary Army and informed them that an agreement had basically been reached with Germany. This news made the generals of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force very satisfied.
??Finally no need to die, many people breathed a sigh of relief, and there was an expression of the rest of life on their faces.
??Subsequently, the German army and the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force negotiated and surrendered in the early morning of April 21. At that time, the German army will enter the southern city of Paris and take over the defense area of ??the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force.
??The reason why the time is set at this time is, on the one hand, to deceive people. Another aspect is for the sake of subsequent operations. At present, the bridge connecting Paris to the cities on both sides of the Seine River has not been blown up. The German army also specifically avoided this area when shelling and bombing. After the surrender of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force, the German army could naturally garrison the south of these bridges secretly, and then attack the north of the bridge at dawn, taking the bridge in one fell swoop. If the bridge can be kept, then the German army's next attack on the northern part of the Seine will be relatively easier. It is even possible to directly attack the French Garrison Command in Paris. After the British surrendered, the location of the French headquarters would naturally not be kept secret from the German army.
?? Time passed bit by bit, and the German attack on Paris continued. On the French side, it was impossible to imagine that the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force had surrendered. Even, those who knew the news were all high-ranking generals, and none of the middle- and lower-level officers knew anything about it.
??On the evening of April 20th, the generals of the British army revealed the news to the middle and lower rank officers. To this, the officers responded differently, but most of them were in favor of surrender. Of course, there are those who refuse to surrender. However, they were quickly arrested. It will not affect the surrender this time.
?? At 2 o'clock in the morning on April 21, Qin Tian, ??accompanied by several legion commanders, came to the outskirts of Paris. General Allenby, commander of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force who had been waiting here, offered his guns to Qin Tian and formally surrendered.
??At the same time, the German army also secretly entered the southern part of Paris, took over the defense area, and accepted the surrender of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force. Although the whole process was a little flustered, nothing went wrong, and it was not noticed by the French army on the other side of the Seine.
"His Royal Highness, the Germans have already won this battle. If the fight continues, it will only cause greater casualties. Therefore, for the sake of the lives of the soldiers, I will surrender to the Germans." Admiral Allenby, Putting everything on the sake of the soldiers shows how noble he is.
Qin Tian smiled, with a look of approval: "General Allenby, you are a brave man and a talent. If one day, the German army can land on the British Isles, then a talent like you will be rewarded. important."
?? Admiral Allenby's eyes suddenly brightened.
