Chapter 224: Surrender (4)

After listening to Weierle's words, Chamberlain did not show the slightest expression of surprise or surprise, he just sat quietly in his seat and looked at the German general opposite with indifferent eyes. But Weirle could tell from the other party's demeanor that the chest of the former imperial prime minister was full of anger at the moment. At this time, if he continued to provoke his opponent, it would inevitably have a counterproductive effect, and Weirle decided to remain silent for the time being, he sat quietly and watched the other party, waiting for Chamberlain to complete his emotional adjustment.

"So, your Führer has decided to annex the British Empire." The two sides confronted each other in silence for about half a minute, and Chamberlain finally couldn't help but speak first.

"Your Excellency, I can honestly tell you that Germany did have such intentions, but the German Führer at that time was Adolf. Hitler. I think you know the former German Führer very well, and only this man can make such an arrogant decision. At this point Wheeler paused, and he turned his face to Major Xester.

"Major, please get me and Your Excellency the Minister a pot of black tea."

"Yes, General." Major Xester, who was sitting on a stool by the door, hurriedly stood up to take the order, knowing very well that this was Lieutenant General Weierle finding a reason to distract himself, and it was obvious that what they were talking about next was not suitable for him to listen to.

"It would be nice to have some refreshments if possible." Weirle added with a smile.

"Yes, Your Excellency." It seemed that it would take a lot of time to talk about sensitive topics, and Xester nodded to Werle, then opened the door and walked out of the room.

"Where does the kitchen go?" Xester stood in the doorway and pulled out a cigarette.

"Go all the way from here, go down the stairs to the first floor, turn right and ......," replied Second Lieutenant Liszt, who was walking up and down the hallway of the doorway.

"I think you might as well take me on a tour yourself, state secrets are being discussed, so ......" Xesther took out his lighter and lit a cigarette.

"I see, Major." Liszt nodded. Then he gave an order to the guards at the door.

"Get out of the room and go to the stairs, no one is to come near without my orders."

Watching Xester close the door, Weirle turned back to the previous topic.

Most people in the German army and government were dissatisfied with Hitler's insistence. But you should also know the situation in Germany at that time, he was supported by the majority of the German people, and for a long time not many people had the courage to speak out against him. Some of the officers in the army secretly organized to overthrow Hitler, and they were once closely connected to the British government, and some even directly served British intelligence.

There is no denying that, Your Excellency, I have personally been involved in some of the cases, and I can honestly understand them. These people loved Germany, many of them had far-sighted visions, and they wanted to stop Hitler from leading Germany into the abyss of war in order to satisfy his personal ambitions, but unfortunately they used the wrong means. ”

"Your Excellency, I am very glad that you can tell you frankly what you think of Hitler, and it is clear that you are an upright and honest man. But I think you seem to have strayed from my question, I do know Hitler, but what does that have to do with your request that I come out and form a cabinet. Chamberlain continued with a frown.

"I would like to ask about the current intentions of the German government. If you have no intention of annexing the British Empire, then why are you asking me to come out and form a provisional cabinet? You must know that this is the internal affair of Britain, and no foreign government will be allowed to interfere with it. If you are going to install a puppet regime that will be at the mercy of Berlin, then you are clearly in the wrong place. You may have succeeded in fooling me once, but I will never allow you to fool me a second time, and even if you execute me right here, I will never be a British Prime Minister appointed by the Germans. ”

Chamberlain puffed out his chest. At this time, the old man seemed to be back in the chamber of the British Empire, and he glanced at the German general in front of him with a sharp gaze, looking so imposing. It is hard to imagine that this seventy-one-year-old man has already run out of oil and is terminally ill.

"I think you misunderstood me, Lord Chamberlain. Hitler is not mentioned to remind you of that unpleasant memory. I just want you to know that my personal position on this war and on Hitler personally is actually the same as yours. This war should never have happened, but history always likes to play with the world again and again.

And now that you have an opportunity to put an end to this tragedy once and for all, why don't you seize this opportunity to make up for your previous regrets. The present German Führer and Hitler are very different people, and I pledge my unreserved allegiance to His Excellency the Führer because he has given me hope that he can lead us to a united Europe where there will never be war again. Wehrle replied in sincere words, while staring firmly into Chamberlain's eyes, not falling behind in momentum.

"Perhaps you're right, I admit you're very different, General. Most of the German generals I have seen are war machines full of fanatical ideas. But I still cannot accede to your request, for I have sworn allegiance to His Majesty the King of the British Empire, to abide by the Constitution of the British Empire, and I am still the Privy Council of the Empire, and I will not cooperate with you in any way except by direct order of His Majesty. You should probably ask others in the Cabinet, and I am sure that Your Excellency will be able to find a better candidate than me. After listening to Weierle's statement, Chamberlain's attitude was noticeably softened.

"I think you may have misunderstood, Lord Chamberlain. It's all my fault for not explaining it to you at the beginning. You don't have to worry about breaking your oath and violating the constitution of the British Empire. Before I came here, I had just met with His Majesty King George VI and offered you to form an interim Cabinet, which was the result of discussions between the two sides, and we have reached a consensus on this issue that only you are qualified and capable of doing the job. A smile appeared on the corner of Weierle's mouth, and after a big circle, Chamberlain was finally driven into a corner.

"What you say is true? Is this the opinion of His Majesty the King? Chamberlain was stunned for a moment, and he asked with a little excitement.

"Why should I tell such an easily debunked lie, you will soon be summoned by His Majesty George VI, and I think you can raise this question with the king himself." Weirle replied.

"Your Führer really wants to negotiate with Britain, not to destroy and annex this empire." Chamberlain, apparently moved, began to put himself in the position of one of the negotiators.

"As I said, this is only Hitler's personal fantasies, and the new Führer, His Excellency, has no such idea in the slightest."

"But for the time being, it seems that Germany can completely occupy the country, and there is no power in Britain itself that can prevent you from doing so. I wonder why the German Führer would abandon this tempting idea. You know, this is an incomparably rich empire, which has never been defeated for hundreds of years, and the German Führer will become the first conqueror of the empire on which the sun never sets.

He could have set up a new system of administration, as he had done with Belgium or the Netherlands, with an army and locally recruited collaborators to rule the country, and if he was brutal and tough enough, as has happened in history, the English would quickly learn to obey these rulers. After Chamberlain was relieved of his psychological burden, his mind seemed to become sharpened, and he spoke eloquently in front of Willle like a politician.

"Your Excellency Chamberlain, will you believe what you have said?" Weirle frowned, this was obviously a temptation on the part of Chamberlain, and the other party did not fully believe in himself, but he could understand it.

"The war has been going on for so long, and countless German soldiers have fallen under the guns of the British, and the hearts of the soldiers have long been filled with disgust and hatred for the British. If conditions allow, do you think there is any reason to stop them from trying to destroy this country and leave it in ruins? What reason is there for them to give up the pleasure of avenging their comrades and compatriots, and what reason to prevent them from deriving pleasure and pleasure from the weeping and prayers of their enemies, and allowing them to reap the fruits of victory from their homeland.

You are right, Germany did have the strength and the ability to completely destroy and annex the Reich. And the only one who can prevent Germany from doing so is the German Führer, the leader of all the soldiers. Had it not been for his orders, the scene I have described before would have taken place in every city, town, and village in England, and we have good enough reason that we are conquerors, and we can give what we want from the conquered nations. Werler raised his hand to stop Chamberlain's answer.

"You should be glad that Germany has a wise and benevolent leader, so do not test our attitude any more, for I will take this as an insult to His Excellency the Führer. Please do not waste the goodwill of Your Excellency the Führer as a sign of weakness. Your Excellency Chamberlain, I have always respected your character and regret what happened to you. I believe that we should let our guard down and exchange our views in an open and honest manner.

As I have said to His Majesty George VI, the hatred between the two countries is too deep for the Führer to suppress the opinions of the people at home indefinitely, so we must negotiate a mutually satisfactory solution in the shortest possible time. Before that, I would like to know your exact reply. Wehrle looked at the former prime minister with his hands on the edge of the table.

"Well, I'll trust you Germans one more time, General Weirle, and if His Majesty the King makes a formal appointment, I agree to be Prime Minister of the British Empire, and to form a provisional cabinet." After Chamberlain finished speaking, he extended his hand to Willle.
