Chapter 825: Never give in (ask for a monthly ticket)
??After the establishment of the United Kingdom of England and Wales, armistice negotiations with Germany began immediately. Week-long negotiations between the German Foreign Minister and the United Kingdom Prime Minister.
??Of course, in fact, the negotiations only took one day. Basically, the German Foreign Minister Vachte proposed the conditions, and the United Kingdom Prime Minister Andrew agreed to the conditions. The reason why so much time has been spent is just to deceive people.
??After the talks, the two sides signed the "German-British Peace Treaty", which stipulated that Britain surrendered to Germany and assumed all responsibilities for the defeat. As a subject of the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom will also assume corresponding responsibilities. In the next ten years, the United Kingdom will pay Germany 50 billion marks in war reparations and transfer all of Britain's overseas colonies to Germany. The German Empire can station troops in the United Kingdom to help the United Kingdom maintain law and order, and the United Kingdom will bear half of the military expenses for the garrison. The army of the United Kingdom, controlled within 100,000 men, no longer has a navy and air force. A coast guard could be created to combat smuggling and rescue at sea. The ships to be equipped must not exceed 5,000 tons. All unfinished warships under construction in the United Kingdom were handed over to the German Empire.
??Similarly, the United Kingdom of England and Wales also joined the Allied Powers and became Germany's younger brother.
??Under Germany’s various means, the former British Empire was completely destroyed. Even though King George V and Churchill were still in Canada intending to rise again, it was almost impossible to realize this dream. On the corpse of the British Empire, the three countries re-established have become Germany's younger brothers. It can even be said to have become a running dog of Germany. Under such circumstances, Germany not only has a solid defense on the east coast of the Atlantic Ocean, but also has a pile of cannon fodder. Once the United States launches an offensive, it must first resolve these three countries. They will use their own blood to buy time for Germany to mobilize its troops and counterattack. Of course, if Germany wants to attack the American continent in the future, they can also act as the vanguard, which can be said to serve multiple purposes!
Canada Toronto. As the largest city in Canada, it assumed the function of the capital after the British royal family and government moved to Canada. Of course, there will always be only one capital of the British Empire, and that is London. Toronto can only be regarded as a companion capital at best.
??In the humble palace, King George V is getting angry.
"Damn the Germans, they actually split the British Empire into three countries. The Irish and the Scots actually betrayed us. If I had known earlier, the British Empire shouldn't have treated them well these years!" George V 1 face of anger. After learning what happened in England, he could no longer calm down.
??Although the British government has never treated the Irish and Scots kindly in the past, it does not prevent them from putting gold on their faces. What's more, George V is not a fool. He naturally knows that now that the Irish and Scots are independent, even if they defeat Germany again in the future, it will be very difficult to unify the British Isles. Will the Irish and Scots who have enjoyed the taste of freedom accept the rule of the English? That's almost impossible.
"And Arthur, as the son of Her Majesty the Queen, a member of the noble royal family of the British Empire, how could they betray the British Empire and seek refuge with the Germans? I will expel him from the imperial royal family!" George V roared angrily with. Although Prince Arthur can be regarded as the uncle of George V, he now only has hatred for Prince Arthur.
??The Prime Minister of the British Empire, Churchill, said nothing. He was not surprised that Germany would take very severe measures against Britain. However, he did not expect these measures to be so vicious. This is clearly to cut off the chance of Britain's rise!
??However, Churchill had to admire the Germans, and these methods were very effective. After Britain split into three countries, it is not so easy to reunite. Even, even if they are unified by force, there will still be a big gap. At that time, they will face endless contradictions.
??As for what Prince Arthur did, Churchill declined to comment. People are selfish. For Prince Arthur, being an ordinary prince is not as good as being a king. Even a puppet king with little power is enough to make people's hearts flutter. Originally, Britain was a country with a constitutional monarchy, and the king had no power. Being able to get a king's surrender in his sixties, Prince Arthur probably would wake up with a smile when he fell asleep!
"Your Majesty, the Germans are indeed too vicious. They did this to cut off the foundation of the British Empire's resurgence! However, we have nothing to do with them now. We can only think about it after defeating the Germans in the future." There are ways to solve these problems," Churchill said.
??George V nodded. Although he was very unwilling, he also knew that, as Churchill said, they had nothing to do with the Germans now, at most they just vented their anger verbally. Apart from that, there is no other way.
"Your Majesty, although these problems are very difficult, as long as we can defeat Germany and regain the homeland, then everything will be fine. If we cannot defeat the Germans, then everything is empty talk. Therefore, defeating Germany is the moment The most important thing," Churchill continued.
"Your Excellency, I understand what you said. Don't worry, the royal family will fully support you this time. The British Empire will not just perish. I hope that in my lifetime, I will have the opportunity to return to the British mainland!" George V said.
?? "Yes, Your Majesty! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, God will bless us. We will definitely defeat the Germans!" Churchill said.
?? With the full support of George V, many things will be much easier to solve. For example, the financial problems that plagued them. If the wealth held by the royal family is taken out, these problems can be solved easily. They can expand arsenals and shipyards to produce more weapons and equipment for the army of the British Empire, allowing them to regain a strong army and navy and prepare for defeating Germany in the future.
??Of course, the current British Empire's army has lost almost all of it. But Churchill believed that as long as there is enough financial support, everything will be rebuilt soon!
