"Commander, most of Birmingham's city has already been controlled by us! Now only a small part of the British army is still resisting, and our troops are encircling them! It is expected that Britain will be able to take Birmingham completely before dark! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng, chief of staff of the 8th Group Army, reported!

"Hmmm! Let the Panzer Brigade, the 9th Infantry Division and the 10th Infantry Division spread out to the south and prepare to defend against the British counterattack! The cavalry brigade expanded south, preparing to delay the British attack! The rest of the troops, in addition to staying vigilant, are all involved in the search for the secret warehouse of the British royal family! Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you have to find out the secret warehouse! "The commander of the 8th Army, General He Bingju, ordered!

"Yes, Commander! Rest assured, as long as the secret warehouse of the British royal family is really in Birmingham, it will definitely not be able to run! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said with a smile. Everyone is also determined to get the wealth of the British royal family worth hundreds of millions of dollars!

From 5 p.m., more than 100,000 Chinese soldiers began searching Birmingham for the location of the British royal family's secret warehouse! The MIA also does not have the exact location of these secret warehouses, but only provides approximate locations. Although 100,000 people is a lot, Birmingham, as one of the most important industrial cities in the UK, has a huge urban area, and if you add the suburbs, even if another 100,000 people are scattered, there will be no result! Two hours later, there was still nothing, nothing was found.

"Come on, mobilize all those Brits, and let them find them for us!" Seeing this situation, Admiral He Bingju had to think of other ways! Birmingham originally had a population of several hundred thousand. But after the battle began. More than half fled. Now there are less than 200,000 Britons left in the city! These British people can be used to help the 8th Army search for the secret warehouses of the British royal family!

"Commander, what if those British don't cooperate?" A staff officer asked with some concern.

"Humph! Do you still need me to teach you? We are the occupying forces! If the British don't cooperate, then they are our enemies! I don't need to say more about what to do against the enemy! Admiral He Bingju said coldly! Although, with the development of science and technology, the Western world presents itself as a civilized world. They often accuse other countries of being barbarians and the like. However, when they carried out colonial plundering all over the world, it was even more bloody and cruel! And this time, the war broke out on the British soil, and China naturally had no need to pity those British!

"Yes, Commander! We got it! The staff officer nodded, and said no more! After having the order of Admiral He Bingju, they were even more unscrupulous! Anyway, even if the sky falls, there will be a tall person on top of it, and they, the low-level officers, don't have to bear any responsibility anyway! Besides. The upper echelons of the empire have no good impression of these Westerners, as long as they don't go too far. No one will hold it accountable. After all, didn't Westerners treat us the same way back then?

Groups of Chinese soldiers, led by the officers, kicked open the doors of the British people's homes and pulled them out of their homes. The British thought that the Chinese were going to slaughter them, and some chose to resist, but many more wept bitterly, constantly praying to God, hoping that God would save them!

"Oh God! What are you going to do! You devils, you can't do this to us! "An old Englishman, roaring in anger!

"Listen, old man, cooperate a little, or we're welcome! We're looking for a few repositories where anyone can exchange them with us if they know something! Anything that is useful, we will reward you! Bread, or meat! "A major officer said to the British, who had been forcibly gathered!

Hearing that the Chinese did not mean to kill them, these British guys quieted down. Although many of them do not want to cooperate with the actions of the Chinese, after all, whatever the Chinese find in Birmingham, it is very unfavorable for Britain! However, if the Chinese are willing to give them bread and meat, this makes them very excited. In the two years since the outbreak of the war, especially after the loss of a large number of colonies, Britain's domestic food supply has become problematic! In addition, Birmingham is in a war zone again, and the food supply is even more difficult! Many people have eaten the last meal but not the next. Now the Chinese have proposed bread and meat as rewards, which immediately sparked a lot of interest.

Soon, led by Chinese soldiers, a large number of British began to look for suspicious places in the city. Inducements are often more reliable than force. After all, it is more effective to get these Britons to work for China willingly than to force them.

With the addition of these British, the progress of the 8th Army was much higher! Coupled with the fact that these British people already lived here and were more familiar with the surrounding area, this made it much more likely that the 8th Army would find the secret warehouse of the British royal family!

"Commander, the General Staff is calling to ask about our latest progress!" Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng, Chief of Staff, said to General He Bingju!

"Call back to the General Staff, we have taken Birmingham and are searching for targets! It is expected that within tomorrow, we should be able to get some clues! Admiral He Bingju said. Although a large number of British people were mobilized to participate in it, it was still very difficult to accurately find the secret warehouse of the British royal family! At this time, it's more about luck! Admiral He Bingju also knew that the country was very concerned about their actions, but he had no other way but to look at luck!

"Hmmm! In addition, the cavalry brigade called, and they had already found traces of the British in Rugby, about fifty kilometers from Birmingham. However, there was probably only one regiment of troops, and the cavalry brigade launched a surprise attack and wiped out most of the British. The news from those captives is that the British are massively increasing their troops in Birmingham, and the troops transferred from London to Birmingham are probably more than 300,000, plus the army that was defeated from Birmingham before, we may have to face 400,000 or even more British ** troops! It is expected that we will play them at most the day after tomorrow! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said!

"I had expected that! The British certainly know what we're looking for in Birmingham, and they won't watch the wealth of the British royal family be taken away from us. So, even if you find these riches, you have to resist their attacks! Admiral He Bingju said.

"Order those who search the secret warehouse, intensify the search, in any case, it must be found before dark tomorrow! I'm going to do it all night tonight, and if the British guys want to be lazy, give them a try! Admiral He Bingju said. Clearly, he was going to use those Brits like cattle!

"Yes, Commander! By the way, when will our reinforcements arrive? Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng asked. With the strength of the 8th Army, it should not be very difficult to defeat hundreds of thousands of British Army. However, let's not forget that the Germans were frantically increasing their forces to the British, the 2nd Army Corps of the German Army had already landed, and the 3rd Army Corps was also hurrying to land. If the Germans had known about the situation in Birmingham, the 8th Army would have been under even greater pressure!

"The next twenty infantry divisions will be able to reach Liverpool in three days! When the time comes, they will come directly to reinforce us! With the addition of Bristol's 2nd Army, we are more than enough for any situation! "Admiral He Bingju is very confident!

After nightfall, the Chinese soldiers who participated in the search for the secret warehouse of the British royal family lit torches, and under the night sky, the stars were dotted, and when viewed from a distance, it looked like starlight!

However, such a beautiful scenery is not appreciated by the British people at all. Under the strict supervision of the Chinese soldiers, these British people took hoes, shovels and other things, and dug holes everywhere at the request of the Chinese soldiers, as if they were going to tear down the whole city, which made these British people who had been living here very dissatisfied. However, in the face of the strength of the squadron, they have no other way than to cooperate!

"Damn, it's late at night, we need to rest, we're people, not machines!" A middle-aged British man loudly protested to a mid-level officer.

"You want to rest?" The lieutenant asked in surprise.

"Yes, I'm going to rest, I've been working for 6 hours straight, I'm so tired!" The middle-aged British man said!

"Okay, then you go and rest!" The lieutenant nodded.

"God, you're such a good man!" The middle-aged British man was pleasantly surprised. But then the smile on his face froze! A pistol was pointed at his head, the muzzle of the black hole, which couldn't help but make him break out in a cold sweat!

"Sir, I think I'll be able to get back to work, I was just joking!" The middle-aged British man hurriedly said! He wasn't sure if the lieutenant ** official would really shoot him, but he didn't dare to take this risk!

"Humph! That's right! The officer said coldly, and retracted the pistol into the holster!

After such an episode, the British worked harder, for fear of angering the Chinese and then being killed!

At 4 o'clock in the morning, when General He Bingju was resting, Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng, the chief of staff, woke him up, with a happy face!

"Commander, I found it, I found a secret warehouse of the British, which was full of gold, piled up like a hill!" Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said excitedly! (To be continued......)
