British Civil Servant

Chapter 65: British Army in Berlin

At least in 1945, Berlin had just been conquered for a month and the world war had not yet ended. The four-nation occupation army and the four-nation occupation organization in Berlin can still be united.

Of course, the soldiers did not know that the opposite side was a long-term competitor in the future. Even many middle and high-level generals did not regard each other as an enemy. At this time, soldiers from various countries in Berlin visited each other, and it was not uncommon to celebrate.

The Soviet soldier played the accordion, which aroused the applause of the British soldiers. The American soldiers and the Soviets shared cigarettes and talked about when they could return to China and live a peaceful life. It seems that MI6 and the Ministry of Internal Affairs have begun to attack each other's territory.

In the building of the British Foreign Office in Berlin, Alan Wilson just finished writing a proposal. In short, it is a document that the United States is anti-intellectual, the Soviet Union is barbaric, and France does not deserve to be a victorious country. Used to promote the next in Germany and even in Europe.

After experiencing the thrill of punching America and kicking the Soviets, Allenwell was very satisfied.

"At least we can't let those peasants in the United States who don't know which country in the country bring our young women from Europe back home, right?" Alan Wilson explained, looking at the documents with a strange expression on Mark's face, "otherwise this is the British Empire European civilization is irresponsible. In fact, how did Germany lose the war? You can ask any European now, and everyone knows who made the greatest contribution.”

It is 1945, and Europeans still know that the Soviet Red Army is the decisive force to defeat Germany, not the 21st century America to save the world.

"However, the Americans are our allies of the UK." Mark became a little restless, what is this?

"The United States is just a dubious ally who cares about the colonies of our British Empire. It is even more dangerous than the Soviet Union on the colonial issue." Alan Wilson corrected with a cold face, "Of course, we and the Americans have the same interests in defending Europe. But this is only on European issues, I am not wrong on colonial issues, I am a civil servant working in British India."

If all the colonies are lost, the United Kingdom will have no choice but to be the follower of the Americans in the future. The simplest truth is that with a large population and a large country, with the military force to protect itself, it can achieve stable development.

In terms of the area and population of the British Isles, the population of the United States and the Soviet Union is three times that of the United Kingdom. For the value created by three people, the British need one person to close the gap. How can this be done?

Just as China can force Americans to jump into the sea as long as there are one-third of Americans per capita. Of course, it is not without counter-examples in the afterlife, and India is a negative example.

Because the population size is only one-third of that of the United States, even if the United Kingdom recovers the same economic level as the United States, it will be the result of being crushed by the United States. Therefore, Alan Wilson believes that a good foundation must be retained, and the area cannot be small. The colonial focus is on business, and British India cannot be counted on, but the British Empire with a rich heritage still has candidates.

Once the confrontation with the Soviet Union began, Alan Wilson certainly hoped that the Americans would stand up to the front and confront the Soviets, and the United Kingdom would support the second line of defense, otherwise he would jump up and down to guide Mikhailovich and guide the other party to Bavaria in Patton. What?

In fact, this is also the dream of Prime Minister Churchill. Taking the opportunity to consume the strength of Americans is not a new trick. Its history can be traced back to the end of World War I. Britain and France lobbied the United States, hoping to form a large army dominated by the American Expeditionary Force to attack Soviet Russia, which had fallen into the hands of the Bolsheviks.

I didn't do it at the beginning, but now it's just that Churchill wants to repeat the old tricks and buy time for the British Empire to adjust.

"Guys, the 7th Armored Division is participating in the military parade, and many Allied generals will be there." Eifel came in and clapped his hands to attract attention, "As for the news from the Soviets, it was June 20th. The military parade was held on the 4th. The Red Square in Moscow and Berlin hosted the parade on the same day, and the commander-in-chief on the Berlin side was Marshal Zhukov.”

Alan Wilson, with his legs crossed, frowned. On June 24th Moscow and Berlin held military parades at the same time? This must be different from history. Zhukov was the commander-in-chief in Berlin. Who was the commander-in-chief in Moscow? Stalin himself?

He is not a liaison officer who has to dig into the details. In the case of previous historical memory, if there is a little change, it will be very uncomfortable. This is like the uncanny valley effect. The more similar robots are to humans, because they are too similar Instead, it's scary.

"After the military parade in Moscow and the joint military parade, the heads of states will have an important meeting to decide the issue of post-war order." Eiffel glanced at his colleagues~www.readwn.com~ Everyone must strictly observe Confidentiality, no problem. "

"No problem!" Everyone's answers were full of anger.

The 7th Armoured Division that received the military parade has arrived in Berlin. Diplomats in Berlin, such as Alan Wilson, also came forward to welcome the officers and soldiers participating in the military parade. As for Foreign Secretary Robert Anthony Eden, he also came to London.

The Foreign Secretary was without a doubt the most important post in wartime Britain after the Prime Minister. Although the date for the Potsdam Conference has been fixed, it would be fitting that the Foreign Secretary would come and organize it first.

"On June 28, we will talk with the United States and the Soviet Union about the post-war order in Europe." Foreign Secretary Robert Eden revealed the specific date of the meeting.

Anyway, Alan Wilson feels that once the election date is approaching, anything can be related to the election now. Who made parliamentary countries such a political environment?

On the early morning of June 17, the first military parade after order was restored in Berlin began. The protagonist of the parade is the British 7th Armoured Division with the title of "Desert Rats". On the day of the military parade, a large number of British chariots and tanks roared through the spacious Berlin streets, attracting many Berlin citizens to stop and watch.

The commander-in-chief of the British military parade was Marshal Montgomery, Marshal of the Soviet Union Marshal Zhukov, and American five-star General Eisenhower also attended and observed the military parade together with Marshal Montgomery.

"Don't General Patton like this kind of occasion very much? It's unexpected that he didn't come." Marshal Zhukov looked at the British military parade and asked Eisenhower.

"Maybe he would prefer to participate in a larger joint military parade." General Eisenhower changed the subject with a smile, "It's surprising that Moscow and Berlin started the military parade at the same time."
