Chapter 589: One English and Each Table

The cousin of the German Emperor Wilhelm III, the cousin of Prince Friedrich of Germany, and the future Queen Elizabeth II, the old lady of England, is still a slim and beautiful girl. www.biquge.info Dressed in a white court dress, she was standing in a drawing room in the Dutch Manor de Doron (now belonging to Prince Friedrich), smiling charmingly, introducing herself in somewhat stiff German to the new German Minister of Defense, Field Marshal Hersmann, and Hirschmann's wife, Chloe, in visiting the Netherlands.

"Your Excellency the Marshal, Marquise, I am Elizabeth. Alexandra. Mary. Wedin, first heir to the British throne. ”

"Wetin? Isn't it Windsor? Hersman looked at Elizabeth II, who was still Lori in front of him, and asked rhetorically in English.

Elizabeth flattened her mouth slightly, then looked at her eldest nephew, Prince Friedrich, who was standing beside her, with affection, and said, "Friedrich thinks that I should restore the surname of the German Wettin family after I inherit the throne." ”

The little girl is quite well-behaved! Thinking of this, Hersmann looked at Prince Friedrich, who was almost unable to hold back the smile on his face.

As the fourth son of William III, he was originally unrelated to the throne. Unexpectedly, Elizabeth's little cousin, who could inherit the British throne, fell out of the sky and fell in love with him, an "uncle and cousin".

This time, he really came with fortune, peach blossom luck and throne luck. However, all these "fortunes" were brought to him by Hersman in the final analysis, and he also knew the purpose of Hirschman's visit to Elizabeth at the Doron Manor.

Hersman came to visit Elizabeth at the Duolun estate as the leader of the Junkers! If Hersman objected, then Elizabeth could not be the future Queen of England. Although Prince Friedrich can still hold a beauty, he is only a little beauty, not a little beauty queen.

Therefore, in front of Hersmann, Prince Friedrich did not dare to put on a royal show, and politely invited the Hirschmanns to sit down, and then said in a grateful tone: "Imperial Marshal, you have done so much for our Hohenzollern royal family, more than Prince Bismarck and Count Moltke combined." Without you, I would still be a penniless prince, so Elizabeth and I will never forget your service to the Hohenzollerns. ”

By "Hohenzollern", he does not mean the German Hohenzollern dynasty that his second brother will inherit, but the dynasty that he and Elizabeth II will start in the future, the children of Elizabeth II and Prince Friedrich will be surnamed Hohenzollern, and they belong to the Hohenzollern dynasty of England.

And Friedrich and Elisabeth do not forget the merits of Hersmann, and naturally they will be rewarded in the future. But Hersman didn't care about Elizabeth II's return, because many people had already said something like that to him. One of them is the Empress of Russia, one is the Shah of Iran, two are the leaders of the Arab Baath Party, the President and Prime Minister of the State of Israel, and by the way, the great leader of Italy, Benito Mussolini.

However, Hersman smiled politely, and then asked Elizabeth in English, "Your Highness, I hope you can tell you the truth, will there be two Britains in the future, or will there be one Britain?" ”

Elizabeth frowned, very confused by Hersmann's question, she looked at her cousin, Prince Friedrich, and the prince explained with a smile: "Elizabeth, the Imperial Marshal wants to know if you and His Majesty King George VI will be separated. ”

"It may take a while to be apart." Princess Elizabeth said slowly.

"So will he give you the British throne?" Hersman asked again.

Princess Elizabeth shook her head and said, "I will be the regent of the United Kingdom." ”

That's "one English each watch"! Hersman thought to himself, he originally thought that Britain would surrender and lose half, but he didn't expect that Qiu Fatzi and George VI actually wanted Britain to make a two-headed bet. The fat man kept the king to go to Canada to continue to be an accomplice of the lackeys of US imperialism, let Elizabeth stay on home soil as queen, and also let Elizabeth marry the son of William III.

In this way, no matter what the battlefield turns out in the future, the British Empire will not lose everything, and the British political elite will have a place to take power.

These guys are much more shrewd than the German Nazis!

"Well," Hersman said with a smile to Elizabeth, "Your Royal Highness, I sincerely hope that you will become Queen of England in the near future." ”

Hearing this, Prince Friedrich smiled and looked at his beloved aunt, the Imperial Marshal, who would soon be the queen.

"But...... We have the conditions too! Hersman's tone suddenly became a little serious, and he said, "What can be taken away from the British mainland, King George VI and the British government should take them away." But what cannot be taken away cannot be deliberately destroyed, and must be left intact to the British people, otherwise there will be no United Kingdom of Great Britain in the future! ”

At present, Britain is still one of the largest industrial countries in the world, with good domestic infrastructure and many factories and mines. If we can "take it all," we can naturally greatly enhance the industrial strength of the European Union, and although it still cannot catch up with the United States, the gap will not be particularly large.

Princess Elizabeth replied with a smile: "Marshal, before I left London, my father said to me: there is now a gentlemen's war between England and Germany, and both sides adhere to certain ancient and noble principles, so we will not fight as the Russians did against the Napoleonic Emperor." ”

"We in Germany also want to fight a gentlemen's war, which is in the best interest of all of Europe." Hersmann nodded with satisfaction, "We Germans don't want Europe to be reduced to ruins, Europe is, after all, our common home. ”

……

"Ludwig, do you really want to fight?"

After having lunch with the future Queen and her husband, Hersman and his wife, Chloe, left the Doron estate in a brand-new Maybach bulletproof sedan. On the way to Rotterdam, Chloe suddenly asks about the course of the war.

"Yes, Elizabeth didn't say that she would be regent after George VI left." Hersman sat cross-legged in the spacious and comfortable back seat, looking at the beautiful spring color outside, and said with a smile on his face. "It won't be long before England has a king and a queen."

"A king and a queen?" Chloe furrowed her eyebrows, "Sounds like a succession war?" ”

"Of course the War of the Succession can't be fought," Hirschman smiled, "but the fall apart of the British Empire has begun." In the future, Princess Elizabeth will become Queen of England, Scotland and Wales, while Princess Margaret will become Queen of Canada. ”

"What about Australia and New Zealand?" Chloe asked with a smile.

Hersman shrugged, "Then I don't know...... Maybe it will become the territory of the Emperor of Japan? ”

"Japan's Australia?" Chloe's eyes widened, "Would Hitler agree to such an arrangement?" ”

"We can't do anything about this," said Hersman, waving his hand, "the Pacific Ocean is too far to reach, so let the Japanese and Americans decide." The Japanese had to be given a little motivation to fight, otherwise the Americans would use more of their forces in the Atlantic. ”

"Americans?" Chloe frowned again, "Or do you want to fight the Americans?" ”

"Of course, it's inevitable." Hersmann smiled, "Why don't I come to Holland for what?" Isn't it just about fighting the United States? ”

Shortly after the Battle of the Faroe Islands on 25 March, Hersmann handed over the post of Chief of General Staff to Field Marshal Kesselring, and took over the Ministry of Defence from Schleicher. As a result, his main job changed from military command to military administration, and he also became a minister in Hitler's wartime cabinet, so he naturally had to take on more diplomatic missions.

There are four diplomatic missions to be completed during this visit to the Netherlands, one is to meet with Princess Elizabeth; the second is to finalize the agreement with the Dutch government on "South Africa for East India"; the third was to negotiate the purchase of three Dutch battlecruisers under construction; The fourth is for Dutch Guiana.

The three Dutch battlecruisers, historically known as Project 1047, were the first ship named the "Lake Ethei" class, which was designed and built by Germany with the help of the Netherlands. However, due to the German war against the Netherlands, the project was never completed.

However, in this time and space, the relationship between the Netherlands and Germany is like a family, and there has been no invasion of the Netherlands. Moreover, Hersmann and Schleicher did not regard the German "Scharnhorst" class as a treasure, and when the Netherlands submitted a request for construction, they directly gave the drawings of the "Scharnhorst" class to the Dutch, so the three battlecruisers under construction in the Netherlands were improved on the basis of the "Scharnhorst" class.

The reason why the Dutch spent more than 200 million guilders to build three improved "Scharnhorst" class battle cruisers was not to defend the homeland, but to deploy to the Dutch East Indies to deter the Japanese.

But now, the Dutch government has agreed in principle to "exchange South Africa for the East Indies," and the Dutch East Indies will soon be handed over to Japan in exchange for Japan's assistance in Germany's seizure of South Africa, and Germany will then hand over South Africa to the Netherlands -- the exchange of "South Africa for the East Indies" is of course also aimed at further wooing and supporting Japan, so that Japan can better confront the United States.

There was no need to defend the Dutch East Indies, and the Royal Dutch Navy did not need three expensive battleships, so it wanted to sell the three O-class ships under construction to Germany. Considering the inevitability of war with the powerful United States, Hersman and Schleicher agreed to purchase these three powerful battleships.

And the issue of Dutch Guiana is a key step against the United States!
