"Colonel Hans, the British are coming."

Randolph excitedly called out to Hans with his binoculars.

"Huh? Is it? Let me see. ”

Hans was standing on the edge of the trench chatting happily with Major Daggers, commander of the 7th Infantry Regiment, when he heard Randolph's words, and hurriedly picked up the telescope hanging on his chest and looked at the British position in the distance.

"It seems that it is them, the British are punctual. Major, has the order been issued? Let your soldiers keep an eye on their fingers and don't come up with any tricks now. Otherwise, it will not be the general's turn to punish, and Colonel Muller will swallow you. ”

"Haha, don't worry, Colonel Hans. All the soldiers were given orders. Seeing that this battle is coming to an end, no one wants to make any more troubles. ”

"Haha, that's good."

Hans laughed as he stared at the military car bouncing over the British position. It was a four-door sedan, and it looked like a premium cargo, at least the suspension was premium. Hans watched as the driver of the car drove the car with great skill, nimbly dodging the dense craters and obstacle posts, and speeding towards the German position, with two small white flags fluttering on both sides of the front of the car, and a British Army insignia clearly painted on the radiator.

In a few moments, the car had passed through the area of exchange of fire between the positions of the two armies and came to the side of the German positions. Several German gendarmes were already waiting in front of the car, waving small flags and guiding the car into the German position and in front of Hans. Hans waved his hand at the car for the Englishmen to follow, and then jumped with Randolph and Daggs onto the jeep, a senior officer parked at the edge of the trench, and led the British car towards the regimental command post.

At the door of the corps command post, Mueller and a group of staff officers of the high command and the commanders of the various units had been waiting there for a long time. When the vehicle stopped, four armed guards stepped forward to open the door for the British ** car, and then stood upright next to the door and waited for the people on the car to get out. The driver who got down first, a middle-aged army colonel, followed by a major general sitting in the assistant's seat, and then two British generals sitting in the back row, one lieutenant general and one general, also got out of the car.

"Welcome, General Gort."

Muller solemnly stepped forward to salute the British Army general, and then greeted him.

"I'm Gott, Commander-in-Chief of the British Expeditionary Force. Pls you are. Gott looked curiously at the young colonel who greeted him, judging from the pile of medals on Mueller's chest and the group of respectful subordinates behind him, he should be a senior commander.

"Oh, I'm Army General Reinhardt of the Third Reich. Feng. General Stadger's direct subordinate to the deputy commander of the corps "Cyprus" Stirling. Colonel Mueller. The general is waiting for you inside. Please follow me. Mueller nodded in acknowledgment, then turned and walked back to headquarters.

"The "Cyprus" regiment, the unit directly under the German deputy Führer, has been pressing us to fight this regiment." The British major general whispered in the ear of General Gort, "I didn't expect its commander to be just a colonel." ”

"Don't talk about useless things, Henry. We are not in a position to judge them right now. Let's hurry inside. Remember, no matter where you can't lose the sense of honor, the spirit of the British Army, the officers. ”

The four British ** officers cheered up under the fierce eyes of a group of German ** officers, they proudly raised their chins, and proudly followed Muller into the headquarters of the German ** regiment.

The negotiation took place in a large conference room. It had already been renovated according to Xu Jun's order, and the military maps on the gray walls of the surrounding army had been removed, and the regimental flags and symbols of each regiment were hung, and a large portrait of Hitler and the German ** flag were hung in the middle. Xu Jun was sitting at the conference table, tilting his head and chatting with his chief of staff, Colonel Werle, about the details of the negotiations to be negotiated, when Mueller walked in.

"General, the British negotiators have arrived."

"Oh, please come in." Xu Jun hurriedly stood up, he pulled the hem of his military uniform hard, straightened his collar, and then looked at the door with his hands behind his back and waited for the arrival of the British.

As soon as Goth stepped into the door of the conference room, he saw Xu Jun standing in front of the door. Although he had seen the young German deputy Führer more than once from photographs sent by intelligence officers, he was still surprised by the young man of the German general after seeing the real person. I can't believe that the military genius who set such a vicious, cunning, despicable, and dangerous trap to play with the 200,000 British Expeditionary Force in the palm of his hand, annihilate the main force of the British Home Fleet, and inflict heavy damage on the Royal Air Force is such a young man who looks like a recent college graduate.

Gort wanted to think about it, but he didn't dare to forget the basic politeness, he hurriedly stood up to the German general who was dozens of years younger than him and saluted a standard British military salute, seeing Gort like this, the other three officers also hurriedly followed their commander to salute. Xu Jun returned the military salute to Goth at the same time as he raised his hand.

After the two sides finished saluting, Xu Jun stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Gort: "German Army General Reinhardt." ”

"British Army General, Gott."

"I've been looking forward to seeing you, Lord Gott. If we are not on two opposing sides, I would like to ask you some questions about military affairs. Xu Jun said to Goth in fluent English.

"How dare you be, Your Excellency General's strategy and tactics have brought the art of war to the extreme, and I have long wanted to be able to meet you." Got shook hands with Xu Jun, and then replied tepidly.

"Let's sit down first, let's put the polite words aside and start negotiating." Xu Jun made a gesture of invitation to the conference table, then turned around and sat down on the side of the conference table. Gort and his men sat on the other side of the table.

"First of all, I will introduce you, this Colonel Müller has already met, this one is my chief of staff, Colonel Weierle, and my staff adjutantant, Colonel Hans, this is my confidential adjutant, Lieutenant Colonel Dogen, and the one next to me is another confidential adjutant, Captain Randolph, who will be responsible for taking minutes of the meeting." Xu Jun introduced his men to the British.

Gort also hurriedly introduced the person he brought to Xu Jun: "This is Henry, Chief of Staff of the British Army Expeditionary Force. Major General Bonnard. And this is Sir Dill, the commander of the First Army of the Expeditionary Force, and that is my adjutant, Colonel Sullivan. ”

"Okay, now that we've all met, let's start negotiating. General Gort, when will your army lay down its arms and surrender. Xu Jun asked Gott slowly, and after speaking, he picked up the water bottle on the table and poured himself a glass of water.

Gott never imagined that the negotiations would begin like this, and the German general would raise the issue so directly. Goth was stunned, froze for a moment, and then replied coldly: "It depends on when you agree to the conditions we propose, General." ”

"Conditions? What conditions? Did you put forward conditions to our army? Xu Jun had a puzzled expression, and after finishing speaking, he also cast a questioning look at his subordinates, and those German officials shook their heads categorically and said that they didn't know.

"Haven't you read the handwritten letter I asked your subordinates to pass on to you? That's why you're negotiating with me, aren't you? Gott felt that the young German general was playing dumb.

"Oh, I've read the letter you mentioned, but I thought the conditions you wrote on it were a joke, so I didn't pay attention. Can you tell me and the officers I have here a little bit more? Xu Jun had a suddenly realized expression, and then picked up the water cup and took a sip of water.

This German kid is obviously talking nonsense, and it seems that he really can't underestimate him. Goth was a little angry now, but thinking about the precious lives of his hundreds of thousands of British soldiers, he suppressed his anger and nodded at his chief of staff, motioning for him to answer Xu Jun's question.

Major General Henry also felt that the Germans seemed to be messing around, what does it mean to not know the conditions of the British army, it is obviously insincere, but he saw that Gott had endured it, what could he not bear. Major General Henry took out a document from the briefcase beside him, and then said to Xu Jun: "This document is the conditions we want you to agree to, if you agree to these conditions, we will immediately lead the LinkedIn Expeditionary Force to surrender." ”

Then Henry began to read the document aloud.

"Article 1, after the surrender of the British ** team, the German ** team must ensure the personal safety of the British ** officers and soldiers. British soldiers and officers shall not be held accountable for all their responsibilities in the war. Article 2: After the surrender of the British ** team, the German ** team should ensure that the private belongings and property of the British soldiers and officers will not be infringed upon. Article 3: After the surrender of the British ** team, all soldiers and officers should be treated in accordance with their ranks, at least the same as the German ** team. Fourth, after the surrender of the British **, they will be guarded by troops sent by the German Army, and no British ** will be handed over to the SS and the Gestapo management. Article 5: After the surrender of the British ** team, it will be detained in accordance with its original unit and structure, and its original British ** officer will be responsible for the management. Article 6 ......"

"Enough!"

Xu Jun coldly interrupted the reading of the British chief of staff.

"Do you think we're going to agree to your terms?"

"I think you will, and if you want to keep your army from suffering heavy losses, you'll agree to our request."

"You're threatening me, Admiral Gort. You should know that you are now making a gamble that is impossible to win. ”

"I know we're doomed, but we're still going to be able to fight. Boundless loyalty to the British Empire will sustain my soldiers to fight to the last. While you have the strength to completely wipe out my troops, my armies will also pay enough for the enemies who annihilate them. That's something you don't want to see. I put forward these conditions so that my soldiers would not shed unnecessary blood, which was a compromise contrary to my principles as a British officer. ”

"Oh, your army still has the ability to fight, yes, so what else are we talking about? Let's each prepare for the final showdown. Xu Jun suddenly laughed softly.

"Do you think we don't know what you're doing? Do you really think that you can inflict huge losses on us with your current troops? Hehe, General Gort, you British ** officers are really some unrealistic delusions. But that's right, otherwise how would you have thought of attacking one of my armored clusters with four infantry divisions, and sending the main force of your navy to my gun. ”

"It's all your trick, we just fell into your trap, and now we won't fall for you, we will fight to the end, and when the last British soldier falls, you will also shed the blood of your German soldiers, and we still have hundreds of thousands of loyal soldiers who can fight for Britain to the last breath." Gort shouted.

"Don't get excited, General Gott, it's true that these are tricks and traps. But it's always true that you jump in without realizing it. Okay, let's not take the topic away for now, let's talk about the decisive battle you are talking about. Do you still have food for your loyal soldiers for a Last Supper? It seems a little too cruel to let your soldiers die hungry. Oh, do you still have shells to fight us? Your artillery positions are all within my artillery suppression circle. Your tank ran out of the last litre of petrol the day before yesterday, and I guess the only car you can drive right now is the one you sat in. You've run out of medicine, and while you're here with me, your wounded soldiers are dying. Your infantry had long since exhausted the last of your ammunition when they fired at my soldiers, and now the few bullets you have left are not enough to kill your hundreds of thousands of soldiers. I'm happy to do this for you.

And I would like to remind you that you have in your hands some German pilots and army soldiers who fell into your positions. I tell you to be kind to them, because if a German pilot or a German army officer is wounded at your hands, I will bury ten British officers, and I will do what I say.

Okay, I won't agree to any of your conditions, you can go back. Let's go to war right now. I can give you two hours to prepare, hahaha, at least give you time to write a suicide note, I'm still very kind. After saying that, Xu Jun and his officers laughed insolently.

Gort and his men listened to Xu Jun's words and sat down on their chairs one by one, looking at the young German general in front of them with fearful eyes. Gort finally understood that his last bluff had been a complete failure, and that the Germans had a complete grasp of the current situation of the British Expeditionary Force. Gott had fantasized that the Nazi deputy Führer would agree to his blackmail in order to avoid unnecessary losses, and the British were the best at using this method to save their last face, while the political idiots of the Germans would not have understood these little tricks.

But what he didn't expect was that the little Nazi was as crazy as his Führer, and it seemed that he couldn't wait to start the final slaughter of his expeditionary force. His eyes were now filled with evil and bloodthirsty excitement. Goth felt that his previous judgment was right, that he had indeed been defeated by the devil, that the young German general had behaved a thousand times more terrifying than the most vile and shameless evil demon, that he was playing tricks on himself, that he didn't want to surrender at all, that he just wanted to be humiliated in front of him. Gort was on the verge of collapse, and he found that his stupidity had blocked the last way for the expeditionary force to survive, and he had finally pushed his army into the abyss.

No, it must not be like this, Gott wants to make a last effort, and now he is willing to pay whatever price he can to save the lives of those Englishmen. Goth finally lowered his arrogant head, and he said to Xu Jun embarrassedly: "Dear Lord Reinhardt, I admit that everything you said is true, and we really don't have any strength to continue fighting. I beg your forgiveness for my rudeness and deception. I retract what I have said, and I confess that I have been utterly defeated, and now I beg of you, for God's sake, to spare the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the British Expeditionary Force. I am willing to surrender to you unconditionally. ”

After speaking, Got looked at Xu Jun in front of him with wistful eyes. But then he noticed that the little devil seemed to suddenly change after listening to his words, and that bloodthirsty and evil eyes and arrogant expression completely disappeared from his face in an instant, followed by a satisfied and smug expression.

Xu Jun smiled and said to Randolph, "Is it written well?" ”

"It's written, General."

"Then ask General Goth to sign it. I accept your unconditional surrender, that all prisoners will be treated fairly in accordance with the provisions of the Geneva Agreement, that you will be able to own your personal property, that you will be treated in accordance with your rank, and that you will treat your wounded and sick. You will be under the administration of the Army in the Army prisoner of war camps, but you will not be able to keep the formation, and the prisoners will be held in groups according to their physical condition. I hope you will be able to stay there in peace until the war is over. Okay, let's sign it. General Gott. ”

"You ......"

Gort looked at Xu Jun, who was smiling evilly, speechless, he was tricked by this young German general again, and he had been completely defeated in the hands of this person, both militarily and psychologically, no, in the hands of this demon.

Gort pulled a pen out of his pocket and trembled as he signed his name on the surrender agreement.

On the evening of June 3, 1940, the German ** team began to enter the city of Dunkelke, and the British Expeditionary Force was thus completely annihilated, and the British mainland was now defended only by the Boy Scouts, and the whole world was shocked by the news.

The invincible German Army has become an immortal myth. And part of this myth, the new generation of German ** god, the deputy head of Germany, the youngest army general in history, Reinhardt. Feng. Stadler boarded his plane early the morning after the surrender of the British Expeditionary Force and left Dunkerke, the place where he had made a name for himself, with all his men.

He would never have imagined that he was about to be drawn into another battle that would be the most treacherous battle and the worst crisis of his life. "End of this volume"
