The British Empire, outside the Fog City, temporary prime minister’s office.
The British Empire’s Prime Minister Winston Churchill is discussing the current situation with the Army Commander, Field Marshal Sir Cyril Deverell, and the Army Chief of Staff, Admiral Alan Brooke.
Their faces are very ugly. It is obvious that the current war situation is very unfavorable to the British Empire.
"Mr. Prime Minister, the Russians have successfully landed in Dover, Eastbourne and Bournemouth. The Imperial Army troops stationed in these areas have been defeated by the Russians. Although our soldiers have tried their best in the battle. However, the gap between us and the Russians is too big. The Russians have absolute sea and air superiority. Their landing troops have received powerful naval gunfire and air support. Our soldiers have to fight the Russians with simple weapons in the broken positions.
The Russians are slaughtering our soldiers with terrifying naval gunfire and air strikes. In such circumstances, our soldiers often suffer heavy blows and pay a heavy price before they meet the Russians."
Marshal Sir Cyril De Freyr has a solemn expression.
"Mr. Prime Minister, the Russians have deployed new tanks in the battle. This is a tank with stronger defense and firepower. Our Panther medium tank was penetrated by the Russian tanks from thousands of meters away. However, our Panther medium tank could not penetrate the front armor of the Russian tanks.
In addition, the number of tanks deployed by the Russians is very large. This makes our soldiers often face the strong armor pressure of the Russians in the battle. In addition, our anti-tank weapons are scarce. So that in the battle, they are completely crushed by the Russians!"
Admiral Alanbrook also said.
Prime Minister Winston Churchill is very troubled.
Although he had long expected that the British Empire Army could not be the opponent of the Russians.
However, when the Russians landed in large numbers, he really realized how big the gap between the two sides was. It can be said that the British Empire Army is not the opponent of the Russians at all! There is a huge gap in the strength of the two sides.
"So, how long can we hold out under the fierce attack of the Russians?" asked Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
"Mr. Prime Minister, there are only a few hundred thousand Russians landing at present. However, the Russians are trying their best to send more troops to the shore. It can be predicted that the Russian landing force will soon exceed millions, or even more. Under such a fierce attack by the Russians, I am afraid we can’t hold out for much longer. Within three months at most, the entire empire will fall!" Marshal Sir Cyril DeFrel said.
He was obviously extremely pessimistic about the upcoming war.
"Three months?" Prime Minister Winston Churchill seemed a little unbelievable.
You know, this is the homeland of the British Empire! They still have five millionArmy, and tens of millions of people who support us! Can’t we hold out for a year under the attack of the Russians? This is too rubbish and incompetent!
"Mr. Prime Minister, this is actually the most optimistic estimate. If the Russian offensive is more fierce, perhaps we can’t even hold out for three months. The morale of the soldiers of the Imperial Army has been greatly hit. Facing the iron hoof of the Russians, the people of the Empire may not dare to fight desperately. By then, the whole empire may be full of people who surrender at the sight of the wind." Alanbrook reminded.
The fighting spirit of the British will not be as tenacious as Prime Minister Winston Churchill expected.
Especially in the case of severe shortage of various supplies.
Can we expect everyone to fight the Russians if we can’t even fill our stomachs?
I’m afraid that for most of the British people, finding a way to fill their stomachs and not starve to death is the most important thing!
"Okay, gentlemen, I understand. No matter what, we must do our best to resist the Russian attack. We must not let them occupy the empire so easily!" Prime Minister Winston Churchill ordered.
"Yes, Prime Minister!" Marshal Sir Cyril DeFrere and Admiral Alan Brooke both replied.
However, it is very difficult to say how long they can hold on.
After all, facing the fierce attack of the Russians, the soldiers on the front line need to fight for their lives. (To read the violent novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"Prime Minister, His Majesty the King asked you to see him immediately." The secretary reported to Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
"Tell His Majesty the King that I will go immediately." Prime Minister Winston Churchill nodded.
The Russians began to land in the mainland of the British Empire in large numbers. Needless to say, King George VI must have panicked.
Although the British Empire was a constitutional monarchy, the king no longer had actual power. However, it must be admitted that the king still had a very large influence in this era.
Especially in overseas dominions and colonies.
Even though Prime Minister Winston Churchill held the actual power of the British Empire. However, facing King George VI, Prime Minister Winston Churchill had to maintain enough respect.
In a secret manor on the outskirts of the foggy city, Winston Churchill met King George VI who was taking refuge here.
"’ Prime Minister, the Russians have landed on our homeland. So, I want to know, can we resist the Russian attack?" King George VI asked straight to the point.
Prime Minister Winston Churchill shook his head: "Your Majesty, (OK) Unfortunately, with our current strength, it is almost impossible to resist the Russian attack. The empire will definitely fall. However, it is not certain how long we can hold out."
King George VI’s eyesA trace of sadness flashed across his face.
Perhaps he never dreamed that the British Empire would fall to this point.
"Prime Minister, what should we do now?" King George VI asked.
"Your Majesty, we will persist in resisting the invasion of the Russians. If the mainland falls, we will continue to persist in the Maple Leaf Dominion. The Empire has already begun secret preparations. Even if the Russians conquer the Empire’s mainland, the Empire will not compromise." Prime Minister Winston Churchill looked determined.
King George VI nodded: "Then, I and the royal family will leave the Empire’s mainland as soon as possible!".
