British War Office, Underground Command. Richard? Haldan's eyes were red as he stared at the London defense map hanging on the wall, like a gambler who had lost a red eye.

The current situation was very unfavorable to the British army, and almost the entire south of London was about to be occupied by the Germans. The remnants of the British army could only retreat on the south bank of the Thames. It is estimated that it will not be long before they are wiped out.

Although, Richard? Hardan had long expected that one day. However, the speed of the German advance was completely beyond his expectations. It can be said that the Germans did not even have the ability to block it. This battle is really too embarrassing. The British army was so vulnerable under the fierce attack of the German army.

The generals stationed in the south of London sent constant telegrams to the headquarters, requesting that they be withdrawn to the north bank of the Thames. But, Richard? But Haldan still refused. Although, Richard? Hardan knew that this would make the generals very unhappy with him. But he did it anyway.

Richard? Khaldan hopes they will be able to hold out in London for a while longer. In this way, Churchill and others can leave Britain calmly, and at the same time, it can also make the German army pay more in London. But, now it seems, they can't do that at all! As for fending off the German offensive, Richard? Hardan had little hope for it.

"Your Excellency, there are also generals on the front who have asked to retreat. They have been beaten by the Germans and have no choice, and if they are not allowed to retreat, I am afraid they will soon be wiped out by the Germans! Admiral Haig reported.

Although, the 1st Army led by General Haig was almost completely annihilated. But, Richard? Instead of punishing him, Hardan made him chief of staff of the London Defense Command, advising him. It's just that the current situation has reached such a critical point that there is nothing worth planning at all.

"Not allowed! Tell them that they must fight to the death. If anyone dares to retreat without authorization, it will be dealt with by military law! "Richard? A hint of cruelty flashed in Haldan's eyes.

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Admiral Haig nodded. Does he know Richard? Haldan's meaning. However, he doesn't think it's a good idea. If you don't do it well, I'm afraid it will backfire. Just, Richard now? Haldan, no longer listening to advice.

"General Haig, how long will we be able to hold out in London?" Richard? Haldan asked.

"Your Excellency, I'm afraid that the southern city will not last long, and it will be able to hold out for two or three days at most! The River Thames could not be a barrier to the German attack. Even if we blow up the bridge over the river, it will only stop the Germans for a while. Personally, I guess it will last for about ten days at most! Admiral Haig said.

Their capital was only able to hold out for such a short time, which was undoubtedly a torment for Admiral Haig. However, there was no way, as a soldier of the British Empire, he could only hold on.

"Hold on as long as you can! In this way, Your Excellency the Prime Minister, they will be able to transfer more people and wealth to Canada. We would have been able to defeat the Germans one more point. "Richard? Haldan sighed.

Admiral Haig nodded, he knew Richard? Haldan, Churchill and others put their hopes on future wars, hoping to rebuild the British Empire with the help of Canada and the Americans. However, Admiral Haig did not have much confidence in this. He did not think that with the help of the Americans he would be able to fight the Germans. That's simply not realistic.

Having won this war, Germany will become the new world hegemon. Their power will spread throughout the world. I am afraid that those overseas colonies of Britain will not be able to hold on at all. When the time comes, Germany will become even more powerful as a result of the acquisition of these colonies. Britain and the Americans, who have lost their homeland, are tied together, and don't want to confront Germany!

Of course, Admiral Haig, even if he thinks so in his heart, will not say it with his lips. That didn't do him any good.

"Your Excellency, the 43rd Infantry Division has surrendered to the Germans!" Suddenly, a staff officer rushed in and asked Richard? Hardan reported.

"What?" Richard? Haldan's face suddenly became very ugly. Even though, he had already guessed that there would be such a day. But I still didn't expect that this day would come so quickly.

"Is it a separate unit, or a whole division?" Admiral Haig asked.

"The entire 43rd Infantry Division!" The officer reported.

"Bastard! How dare they disobey my orders. Ricky, I'm going to hang him! "Richard? Hardan roared angrily.

Admiral Haig looked gloomy and said nothing. He knows, Richard? That's how Hardan just vented his anger. Major General Ricky, who had already entered the German prisoner of war camp, would be very safe.

What worries Admiral Haig even more is that the actions of the 43rd Infantry Division have undoubtedly made a very bad start for the British army. Next, there will definitely be more troops surrendering to the Germans. The 43rd Infantry Division, which will be an example for those units.

It's no wonder who let the current situation be so unfavorable to them? And Richard? Hardan sent the troops to their deaths. Those generals, as long as their brains are not caught in the door, they know how to choose.

Sure enough, on the day that the 43rd Infantry Division surrendered to the Germans, the British troops stationed in the south of London surrendered to the Germans one after another. This allowed the Germans to occupy the south London city without a fight. Even the troops in the north London city were ready to move.

After occupying the south London city, the Germans began to attack the north bank of the Thames.

The British tried to intercept the Germans at the Thames, but they were unable to do so. The 3rd and 8th German Corps had already crossed the Thames.

Moreover, in the course of the battle, more and more German troops, who had lost their fighting spirit, began to surrender to the German army. Even Richard? Hardan's best efforts to suppress it did not have any effect.

When the British surrendered to the Germans, the British army was powerless.

On 3 October, the north city of London was completely occupied by the Germans. Except for the War Office, which was still fighting fire, the rest of the area was already under German control. Of course, this was mainly due to the fact that most of the British troops voluntarily laid down their arms and surrendered. Otherwise, the Germans will have to fight for a while.
