Battle of the Third Reich

"The prisoner's emotions have stabilized, and at noon today he finished his full lunch. ●⌒," British Army Gendarmerie Major Henry. Jenkins reported carefully to the German SS colonel in front of him.

"Let him take a shower, change to a clean dress, and ask him if he has any special needs." Dougan extended his hand to the side and accompanied Captain Stark on the side quickly handed it to his hand. Military cap.

"You take me around, Major Jenkins. I am here for the first time."

"Of course, Colonel Dougan, I am honored to be your guide." Jenkins promised in a hurry. The German SS officer put too much pressure on him.

"Lieutenant Stark, you can first check the surrounding security arrangements. You should know what to do. Remember, the safety of the head of state is the first priority. Don’t miss any loopholes. Be sure to be foolproof."

"It is our sacred duty to obey Colonel, and there will be no slack." Stark saluted Dougan.

"Hi, Reinhardt!"

"Hi, Reinhardt!" Dougan responded by raising his hand.

Stark lowered his arm, nodded slightly at Dougan and Jenkins, then turned around and strode out of the office door.

"Captain Stark is the commander of the head of state guard flag team. When the head of state is traveling, he is responsible for the security work of the entire team." Dougan corrected the military cap on his head and then said to Jenkins.

"I have some questions about the prisoner, but we can talk slowly on the road."

"Okay, Colonel Dougan, I will tell you everything I know." After finishing speaking, Jenkins put on the red top hat he took with the British Army Gendarmerie.

"This is the first time I have seen London's cityscape at such a close distance." Xu Jun sat in a brand-new Daimler bulletproof car and watched the view of London street outside the window with great interest.

At this time, the normal order on the London market has been restored. As factories and enterprises started to work, a busy scene reappeared on the streets of the city. If it is not the vehicles that often have German signs on the streets, the scene at this time will be almost It gives an illusion. It seemed that the **** war that had just ended was just a dream.

Post-war reconstruction work is a tremendous business. Both Germans and British people want to share in this feast. A large amount of overseas funds were recaptured, and the financial situation of the British Empire showed signs of improvement. The German banking conglomerate did not lose its normal judgment because of its military victory. They took the opportunity to begin to intervene in the local financial investment in the UK, and bought a lot of companies and industrial and mining enterprises with development value, which was closed in the past. Under the fiscal policy, these core industries are rarely open to foreign consortia.

The final negotiations between Britain and Germany are still in full swing. But both the government and the private sector have launched a series of cooperation plans. For the wealthy class of the two countries, if the gains outweigh the losses, then any hatred can be set aside. These purely realistic animals of interest have no regard for any hatred of the country, and taking this opportunity to obtain more profit sharing is the guiding ideology of all their actions at present.

Britain is slowly recovering. This is obvious to all British citizens. As a large number of living supplies were transported from Europe to the island, many long-seen goods reappeared on the shelves of the store. The underground black market was used by the British and German forces. The police jointly banned and the goods hoarded by the profiteers were confiscated. And put into the market at a low price, the people resumed their daily lives, and a prosperous and peaceful scene appeared on the streets.

This caused some ordinary civilians to start to reflect on, what is the significance of the pain they have experienced before? At the same time, many people have questions in their hearts. Why should Britain be involved in this seemingly meaningless war?

Eventually, the spearhead began to point to the parliamentarians and politicians who have been pushing the British into the war, and the news media that is fueling the sidelines. The current popular saying among the towns and cities is that the patriotic British people are being used by these war brokers and the stray media they bought. The falsehoods created were deceived and deceived. The ignorant and greedy war dealers and ambitions in parliament simply pushed Britain into the abyss of war for their personal benefit and purpose. Finally destroyed this once great country.

Especially Churchill, as the chief of the wartime cabinet, he became the target of all attacks. His series of violent policies before the end of the war deepened the public’s bad impression of him. The tyrant's resentment had not been extinguished from the moment the British surrendered. The citizens of London even have a lot of new hatreds and old hates that want to be settled with this man.

This great savior of the British Empire in history, the greatest politician of the twentieth century, and a staunch defender of the free and democratic world, now appeared in British newspapers and magazines in a very ugly image. Obese low-energy, incurable drunkards, despicable political thieves, bloodthirsty war dealers, brutal dictator ambitions, uncrowned kings dumped a bucket of dirty water on the head of the former prime minister like money on.

There are also scrambles in the society to tell stories about this Prime Minister’s lord, there are true and false, and there are a lot of vulgarities that are outrageous, but civilians in the British countryside like to listen to these little spices. Paragraph. And at this time, almost no one will stand up to stop it. The British seem to have treated their former leaders quite insultingly and have shown themselves to the Germans as an effective way.

The destination of Xu Jun’s trip is the Tower of London by the Thames. As Britain’s most important person in charge of war, Churchill is currently locked in this ancient war fort, waiting for the final trial. Xu Jun has decided to leave that night. Before he left, he wanted to meet with Churchill, but he had always wished to chat with Churchill face to face for a while.

"My head, you can already see Tower Bridge in front of you." Disenhofen, who was sitting in the co-pilot position, reported.

Xu Jun entered the city of London secretly this time, so instead of showing a full of honors, he did not even take a Mercedes-Benz car specially arranged for him, but took a bulletproof Daimler gifted by the British royal family, entourage and guards The standard public car provided by Scotland Yard is also used. Even if British citizens see it, they will only think that it is an ordinary government official to travel, avoiding the attention of most people, but conducive to ensuring the safety of their own travel.

"My head of state, the destruction of this part of London is not serious, so the social order is recovering quickly. But in the east. Many communities have been devastated. At present, at least 200,000 people have lost Thirty percent of the civilians in their shelter lost all their property. These people have nothing but a suit of clothing.” Mueller sighed with a heavy expression on his side beside Xu Jun .

Because Weierle was busy dealing with the n25 problem, as the highest-ranking officer at the base at the time, he was caught by the head of state. Mueller was really flattered, but no one asked for opportunities. Can be accompanied by the head of state, and can also travel with the car.

"Reichenau is already preparing to take over these things, he will have his way. I have suggested that the British government can organize some of these people to go to the south, where there are a lot of reconstruction projects in urgent need of strong labor We have destroyed many towns in the south. If we do not resume local production and life as soon as possible, there will be endless troubles." Xu Jun's eyes did not leave the window. He carefully observed the style of British citizens on the street.

"The Cypriot legion has finished rest, my head, the soldiers are very happy to get a week's vacation."

"Soldier's bonuses went down."

"Double the wartime monthly allowance. You are so generous to the soldiers, my head, but unfortunately there are no cheap goods to buy here in the UK."

"There are some luxury goods, such as clocks and antiques, and gem jewelry." Xu Jun turned his face with a smile.

"I bought two watches, which are said to be waterproof and shockproof. I plan to keep one of my own and the other to give Halong as a birthday gift."

"When is Halon's birthday?"

"At the end of this month, on the 25th."

"Eric, remember to remind me to prepare a gift." Xu Jun said to the adjutant.

"Observe. My head, I will arrange it." Disenhofen replied respectfully.

The convoy has turned to Tower Bridge Road and can see the towering tower ahead. This beautifully shaped bridge has become a symbol of the British Empire along with the House of Representatives Big Ben. People in other countries in the world have mentioned Britain. The images of these two buildings will appear in my mind.

At the northern end of Tower Bridge, the huge Tower of London stands on the banks of the Thames. Xu Jun looks out from the car window and sees the iconic central white tower and the gray outer wall.

The German Third Infantry Division spent a lot of effort at that time, and had never been able to capture the castle. The British defenders who guarded the castle were not very strong and equipped. However, relying on strong and strong fortifications, he simply repelled the German forces for several attacks, and almost forced the Ludwig commander to disobey the order and ordered a heavy bombardment. Fortunately, Manstein gave orders in time to turn the siege into a siege, which made this ancient fortress finally preserved intact.

The so-called Tower of London is not a tall tower in the usual sense. Toer in English means tall and tall. This building is actually a three-story square Normandy castle. If it is related to the tower, then Only the four corners of the castle have a tower with a roof, which acts as a watch and alert. This castle is only the core building of the entire fortress defense system. What really plays a defensive role is still a circle of tall stone walls around the city and a solid defensive tower built at intervals from the wall. After hundreds of years, countless generations of kings have repaired and expanded, and finally turned into this magnificent fortress with double walls and a wide moat that now appears in front of Xu Jun.

The monarch who originally built this fortress was actually an aggressor, that is, the famous Norman dynasty founder, William the Conqueror from Normandy. The purpose of this foreign conqueror to build this fortress was not only to proclaim the power of the king in his hands, but also to deter and suppress those disobedient Anglo-Saxons. Since then, the name of the Tower of London seems to have been **** and violent. link together.

In particular, the powerful conqueror built a large number of strong castles in the United Kingdom in order to maintain his rule. The two most famous military fortresses are the Tower of London and the Windsor Castle. The former It has always been a symbol of British royal power, and the latter has become the source of the name of the current British royal family.

Xu Jun’s convoy drove quickly across the Tower Bridge, then turned a corner and entered the road leading to the main entrance of the Tower of London. The intersection guards had been replaced by SS soldiers in black uniforms. When the convoy arrived, he quickly pulled away the barbed steel barbed wire barbed wire barbed wire, and then stood up and saluted at the roadside. The head of the convoy of five cars drove straight in, crossed the ancient stone bridge over the moat, and drove into this legendary royal castle that almost ran through the long 900-year history of the British Empire.

Seeking monthly tickets, it's almost the end of the month, to see if it can be rushed again. Ranking is important and not important for this book, because every time a bookmate casts a monthly ticket, for me, it is your right I made an affirmation.
