Imperial Overlord

: Five hundred and twenty fainted

After hearing the news, Li Le nodded reassuringly. He was afraid that someone would take advantage of the mother and daughter to influence the SS.

What he needed was an absolutely loyal SS, a personal army of allegiance to him. Wouldn't it be a joke if this troop was randomly divided and infiltrated?

So Li Le needs to find Himmler's mother and daughter, and take these two people into his own hands.

"Send the two of them back to Himmler's former residence and arrange for someone to take care of them. Watch them and don't let them touch anyone... Do you understand what I mean?" Li Le glanced at Adrian and ordered road.

Adrien felt relieved, stood at attention and saluted: "As you order, my head of state. I will personally arrange personnel to protect the mother and daughter. Please rest assured, head of state."

Hearing Adrian's words, Li Le was relieved. In the Germany he controls, it is estimated that no one has dared to blatantly hijack a target controlled by the SS.

Putting his mind at ease, Li Le also felt a little sleepy. He had been highly nervous and worried that the Americans would be drawn into the war.

Now, after he relaxed, the after-effects of not falling asleep broke out all night. He waved to Adrian, motioned for the latter to step back, then leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest.

"The defense line on the Cornwall Peninsula is shrinking. We have planned to give up some areas and the tactics of consuming German supplies seem to have achieved initial results." A general pointed to the map and reported to Churchill.

Churchill stood in front of the map, watching his generals analyze the current situation, there was always a anger in his heart that could not be vented.

As the Prime Minister of the Empire, his generals actually delayed the enemy's attack by withdrawing and handing over their own people to others...

This is simply a shame. The other party has shamelessly said that if the initial results had been achieved a year ago, Churchill would have personally slapped this person in the face.

However, turning his head and looking at the pale-faced Sir Dill standing on the other side, and the silent Viscount Gort, Churchill could only suppress his dissatisfaction and continue to listen to the other party's eloquence.

"The German army has stopped advancing now, and their material consumption is huge, and they can no longer support a protracted war." The general drew a circle on the map with the pointer in his hand, encircling Portsmouth and other areas. .

The Isle of Wight, as well as Southampton and other areas, now has a fixed German air base. These places are now thorns in the UK's side, threatening the very existence of London.

As the war progressed, Germany's strategic focus had shifted from the heavily damaged Dover area to the barely usable Portsmouth area.

An attack here could sever ties between Cornwall and London. This is what the British army is most worried about now, and it is also what the German army wants to do most.

In front of this strategic goal, in fact, only Bristol is an obstacle. As long as it is captured here, the Cornwall Peninsula will become an enclave of the United Kingdom.

"Ireland has been very unstable recently, and our forces in Northern Ireland have had to shrink, but the stability won't last long," an internal affairs official who attended the meeting told Churchill.

The United Kingdom is a country with obvious regional divisions, which can be seen from its name.

The country's full name is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, which itself is named after a place name.

In fact, the British mainland is also divided into three regions: Scotland, Wales and England. In the real sense, there are only England and Wales.

The northern part of Scotland was also ill-conceived earlier, but it has been ruled for hundreds of years and has long lost its independence.

However, once England and Wales are knocked down, it is unknown whether this place will immediately defend itself.

As for Ireland, it is definitely not a stable place. In 1998, the issue of Northern Ireland was still a headache for the British government.

When the Irish Civil War broke out in 1922, Britain became a mess-maker. New hatred and old hatred are far from being forgotten at this time. Ireland jumped out when Germany invaded, which was completely expected by everyone.

Even a few days ago, the German President had already talked about the Irish issue in his speech in Berlin. The head of state claims to support the liberation movement in Ireland and is willing to provide all kinds of help.

The help, he said, included the landing of force in England. Now that the battle has reached this stage, Ireland is certainly willing to fight alongside the Germans.

"Then let the newly trained 2 infantry divisions go to Ireland! If they want war, we will give them war!" Churchill snorted and gave his answer.

Because of the completely different size of the two countries, Britain has never been afraid of Ireland, which has little fighting ability.

"It's not Ireland's problem now, but that Germany is ready and has a model to beat us." The Foreign Secretary sighed and said what Churchill was reluctant to say.

Churchill of course also knew that the real lethality of the Irish problem is not how much pressure Ireland can create on Britain, but the resulting division.

Once Ireland takes back Northern Ireland, Scotland is likely to waver. By that time, Britain will cease to exist altogether.

As long as the Germans establish two puppet regimes in Ireland and Scotland, they can effectively divide and disintegrate the resistance of the British people.

At that time, Germany occupied England and Wales, and it became a matter of course, and no one would care about it.

After all, when it comes to the issue of race, the Germans have long recognized their ancestors for the British: everyone is descended from the Aryans, and the Saxons and the Germans are as close as brothers, and they are one family!

Thinking of this, everyone who participated in the meeting couldn't help but feel a chill behind their backs. Now that the tension on the battlefield has exhausted everyone, and there are a lot of internal problems, it will completely collapse.

Churchill patted the map with his hand and brought all the wandering people back to reality: "It's a military conference now, and we'll discuss the Irish issue later!"

When it was Viscount Gott's turn, he might be in the best position among these generals.

Army Group London was strong and had counterattacked 7 km south, driving German troops back out of artillery range.

Now London is no longer harassed by German artillery, and only the Viscount Gott is on several fronts, which is in a counterattack situation.

However, Viscount Gott is now a mute eating Huanglian, and he can't tell the pain. His troops have lost more than 30,000 people, and the ammunition consumption is also very huge.

In order to retake these German-held positions, he lost almost all the remaining tanks of the 1st Panzer Division, as well as a number of British aircraft covering his attack.

Even in this case, Army Group London still failed to meet his expectations.

Originally, he thought that even if he lost 50,000 people, he would be able to get Maidstone back no matter what, but the fact was in front of him, and now he didn't even see the suburbs of Maidstone.

What he didn't know was that Dietrich and Liszt were very willing to watch his troops fight back, because destroying the British in the wilderness was obviously more cost-effective than fighting in the streets of London.

The head of state has already issued the highest operational knowledge, asking the German army to avoid street fighting as much as possible. Therefore, the Germans are now welcoming the British counterattack, and it is best to use up all their reserves on the road to counterattack.

"London needs ammunition replenishment, and the troops also need to rest." Viscount Gott put forward his own requirements, which he had already raised in a separate meeting yesterday.

It is a pity that Sir Dill, who answered him, gave the exact same answer as he said in the separate meeting yesterday: "Supplies are very tight now, and I have no extra ammunition to replenish you."

"Then, I request that the southward counterattack of the London Army be suspended and the troops rested." Taking the next step, Viscount Gott expressed his thoughts.

Churchill also had no good solution, and could only agree to Gott's request: "Well, you can suspend the counterattack and wait until the new supplies arrive in the UK."

"Sir, there may be no supplies coming in a short time." An officer of the Navy walked into the conference room and said to Churchill with a gloomy expression.

"What are you kidding me, what nonsense are you talking about?" Churchill shuddered when he heard the news, and asked in a hoarse voice.

"The American fleet was forced back by the German fleet. This time UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com's plan to rush supplies failed..." The naval officer just came to report the news.

His words made everyone talk about it. Without this round of supplies, it is estimated that there are many places that cannot be eaten.

"The plan to form the 3rd Armored Division will also be suspended." An army general shook his head helplessly.

"There is not enough steel for repairing the battleship Ramirez, when will this wait?" A navy general complained to his companions in frustration.

"Food, if we can't get any more food, the workers in the north will make trouble again." An official in charge of industry sighed.

The whole venue was in chaos, and Churchill didn't have the heart to suppress these fragmented discussions.

At this time, he was just staring at the huge map of England in front of him, and suddenly it got dark and he fell down.

Sir Dill, who was standing beside him, was quick to help the fallen Churchill, and then the whole venue became even more chaotic: "Doctor! Find a doctor! Mr. Prime Minister fainted!"
