"Okay, I won't talk to you more, you can just do what I tell you to do! I'm in Orel right now and have a lot to deal with! By the way, the last time I asked you to send me the Waffen-SS Panzergrenadier Division back to Berlin, has it already set off? ”

Chen Yanlong ignored Kesselring, who was as stunned as a wooden chicken, and continued. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Ahh Yes, yes! They are already on their way home! ”

Kessel, who came back to his senses, immediately replied as if reflexively.

"Hmmm! Good! Thank you! ”

Chen Yanlong nodded with satisfaction.

Then he hung up the phone as usual.

“……”

Kesselring was very uncomfortable and disgusted by this; But who calls someone the head of state, so even if you don't like it, you have to learn patience and habit.

At this time, the Queen Mary, a royal cruise ship that had been out of Scotland for almost six days, was slowly passing through the Ambrose Lighthouse at 8 o'clock in the morning; Escorted by U.S. escort destroyers, they sailed at a high speed of about 30 knots toward New York Bay on Tompkinsville, their destination on Staten Island.

The Queen Mary, part of the British Steamship Company Carnad, was one of the most luxurious cruise ships in Europe before the Second World War, and was also a famous floating palace on the sea.

The ship can reach a top speed of 34 knots and carry 15,000 passengers.

But at this moment, the 1,000-foot-long cruise ship, its peacetime red, white, and black paint, has now been painted blue-gray by the British army.

And the exquisite decoration on the cruise ship has also been renewed.

Like the famous six-mile-long Wilton carpet, more than 200 boxes of bone china and crystal utensils; and a large collection of fine wines and cigars, all stored in a warehouse in New York.

Because this Royal Cruise Ship has been transformed into a prisoner ship at this moment, and a large number of sandbags have been deployed in the Royal Cruise Ship; Machine gun barracks, and wire mesh, as well as door locks and alarm bells.

It is also specially equipped with more than 300 heavily armed British troops with rich combat experience.

Because now inside this royal cruise ship, the German soldiers who were captured after the defeat of the North African campaign are being pressed.

These soldiers were now to be crossed the Atlantic by the British on the Royal Cruise Line Queen Mary; Delivered to a prisoner of war camp in the southwestern United States for imprisonment.

Of course, in addition to German prisoners and British soldiers, there were some big names on board the Queen Mary.

These bigwigs were all from the highest-ranking generals of the British Army, Navy and Air Force, and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was among them.

Because in order to solve the problems of the American and British military leaders who appeared in the spring of 1943, around the opening of a second theater of war in Europe; and serious disagreements over military operations in the Mediterranean and Burma; Therefore, US President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill led the members of the US-UK Joint Chiefs of Staff (composed of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff and the British Chiefs of Staff) to hold a meeting in Washington, D.C. (codenamed "Trident", so also known as the "Trident Conference").

At this meeting, the United States and Britain will discuss the strategy of launching a large-scale offensive in France across the Channel; and a plan for operations in the Pacific calling for a British offensive in Burma; It negotiated and decided with Britain on such issues as adhering to the Mediterranean strategy, advocating an attack on southern Italy, and then prompting Turkey to enter the war and launch a military operation in the Balkans, emphasizing that the Mediterranean operation should take precedence over the combat operation of crossing the Strait to attack France.

British Prime Minister Winston standing on the foredeck of the Royal Cruise Line Queen Mary? Leonard? Spencer? Churchill was smoking his long, large Havana cigar, which was rumored to be at least eight or nine a day.

At this moment, his round face with wrinkles on his forehead did not have the slightest mood swing; But his eagle-like gaze was still extremely sharp.

"How long will it be before we get to Greater Washington? Marshal Diere! ”

Staring at the foggy weather over the approaching New York Bay, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill looked at John Churchill beside him? Grayer? Deere, British Field Marshal asked.

"Come on, just wait a little longer!"

John? Grayer? Marshal Dill replied coldly.

To be honest, he didn't like Prime Minister Churchill at all, and even resented the other party a little.

Why?

Because of his position with Winston? Churchill's constant quarrels worsened, making him bitter to Churchill after his defeat in the Greek campaign. and also lost his post of Chief of the Imperial General Staff, and the most annoying thing to him was this position, which was handed over by Churchill to Viscount Alan Brooke to take over.

Let him watch others get mixed up, and he can only be the chief representative of the British side of the British Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, D.C.

"Actually, I told Roosevelt and Marshall that we would land at Barthes Park in Manhattan! And you can enjoy Broadway while drinking Americans to make friends! Who knows that those American secret services are 100,000 against it, saying that it is for our safety and in case they are assassinated by enemy troops! ”

Ignoring Marshal Deere's cold expression, Prime Minister Churchill took a long long breath of his cigar, then exhaled a large smoke ring and said angrily.

"There is no way! This is a critical period of war, and the U.S. military is doing this for the sake of our lives, so we should be grateful to them! ”

Marshal Dill shrugged his shoulders and said with a blank expression.

"Tsk! What is there to be afraid of! Didn't our Marshal Montgomery defeat the desert fox in Africa and drive it out of North Africa along with the Italian army? And look at our royal liner Queen Mary, which is full of 5,000 German prisoners! ”

"And the battle of Tunisia is almost over, I think the 250,000 soldiers of the German and Italian armies will either surrender to us or be annihilated by us! But I don't think those Italian soldiers have the heart to fight to the death! If they don't surrender to the British Empire, the sun will have to come out of the west! As for the German army, which ran out of ammunition and food, I am afraid that it will not be long before they are tough! ”

Prime Minister Winston Churchill said with relish and smugness.

"Or may! But the Germans are still angry! We'd better not relax too much, or I'm afraid we'll be the ones who suffer! ”

Marshal Dill sneered and retorted.

"Hey! Or not! But no matter how the German army led by Hitler counterattacked, it was good to struggle for survival; We must find a way to win this war, for the sake of the interests of our British Empire in the Mediterranean, and for the sake of future living space! Germany will not be able to stay! ”

Hearing this, Prime Minister Churchill responded with a cold look in his eyes.

To this, Marshal Dill did not respond, but remained silent.

"Hahaha! I said, Marshal Diere, why are you so worried and serious! Now that all the war is going on the good side, we should now be happy and look forward to the best, and look forward to victory! Come with me to the ship's dining room for a good meal, and then celebrate our near-end campaign in Tunisia; And we have to discuss the Sicilian campaign that we are about to launch! ”

Prime Minister Winston Churchill glanced at Marshal Diere, who was suddenly silent, gently patted the other party's shoulder, and laughed.

But at this moment, Viscount Aranbrook suddenly turned ugly, took a telegram, and hurried towards them.

"What's wrong? Viscount Aranbrook! Why are you in such a hurry? ”

Seeing Viscount Alain Brooke, who hurried to them, Prime Minister Churchill still smiled heartily.

"Something is wrong! Prime minister! The 12th U.S. Bomber Group, which we sent to bomb the Magana airfield on the island of Pantelleria, was completely wiped out by the Luftwaffe! Leave not a single one left! ”

Viscount Aranbrook's face was very ugly, and he said anxiously.

"What, you're kidding me! That's a whole bomber group! How was it completely annihilated by the Germans all at once! Didn't our intelligence network say that there are now only 80 Italian planes stationed there? ”

Prime Minister Winston Churchill stopped smoking his cigar in shock and roared in surprise.
