The Führer really had no intention of making peace, and this seems to be easily evident from the intensity of the attack on Britain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Unlike Hitler's desperate preach that the Saxons and Germans were a family that loved each other, the false Führer Lee Lek never regarded the British as his good friends.
Before 1942, Hitler had the dream of joining forces with Britain and Europe. But looking back at history in the 21 st century, Li Le naturally clearly knows that the British have never thought of compromising with Germany.
Therefore, after he became the false head of the empire and mastered the iron fist of the empire, he never wavered at all, and his determination to kill Britain and completely wipe out this European-stirring stick.
When the British Duke of Hamilton repeated his old trick and tricked Hess and others, claiming that he hoped for peace talks, Li Le made his own peace conditions.
It's just that, in the eyes of the British, this peace condition is not so much harsh as it is simply nonsense!
The German diplomatic department demanded that only one-tenth of the British navy be retained, and that the rest of the navy should be given to the German navy.
At the same time, all shipyards and heavy industry bases in Britain must be assigned to Germany, which will arrange production in a unified manner and hand over all its patented technology.
Such excessive demands are just the beginning. Li Le demanded that the number of German troops stationed in Britain should be kept at more than 100,000.
On the other hand, the British overseas colonies, with the exception of the nominal ownership of Great Britain, were all assigned to Germany for the exercise of governing power......
It is not surprising that the terms that were put forward afterwards regarding war reparations and the distribution of materials were nothing more than desserts on top of the previous requirements.
Seeing such a request for negotiation, Churchill laughed angrily. He knew of course that Hitler was joking with him, and had no hope of talking about it again.
At the same time that this peace condition reached Britain, the German navy left the port in a murderous manner, sinking 51 British transports in one go.
"The Germans are playing us! They weren't fooled at all, or they didn't expect us to accept their offer at all! Churchill stared at the terms of the document on the table and spoke to his men.
Everyone in the room was silent, and everyone knew that they were in a very bad situation right now. But there was nothing anyone could do, so they had to keep silent.
The German navy's repeated sorties and successes have made the British Empire's navy lose its original self-confidence.
Together with those submarines that are almost everywhere, Britain is losing transports every day and simply cannot replenish them with production capacity.
Since November, British transport ships have tripled their losses. More than 400 transport ships were sunk in a month, and at the same time only 71 merchant ships were replenished to the route.
Dönitz proposed the wolf pack submarine tactic, sinking an average of dozens of British transports per month in 1940.
But even so, in real history, Germany sank more British transport ships in just two months than the number of British and American replenishment ships.
Yes, that's how desperate it is - despite the desperate attacks of the German submarine aces, the British sea transport ships are still getting bigger and bigger......
But now, the transport ship that Germany sank in August is ahead of the construction rate because of the information provided by Li Le, the traverser.
By September, this number was still increasing due to inertia. In the early stages of the war, German submarines achieved the combat goal of reducing the number of enemy transports for two months in a row.
Soon, October arrived, and the British managed to rearrange the route and schedule, preventing the further ravages of German submarines.
However, in October, due to the impact of the German discovery of oil fields in Libya, the number of German submarines reached twice that of the same period in history, so the losses of British transport ships did not decline.
As a result, things came by November, and the German fleet began to enter the war in mid-November, and the losses in the Atlantic immediately increased exponentially.
In order to avoid the attack of German surface ships, the route of the convoy was further disrupted at some point. As a result, the gains of German submarines increased considerably.
You know, on the battlefield it's not an operation where one plus one equals two. While being wary of the opponent's increasing number of attacking methods, taking care of one or the other will multiply the loss.
As a result, in this short period of half a month, the losses of British transport ships increased exponentially, and the number of submarines in the first half of the month was even greater, and Germany sank 400 British ships.
Yes, 400 ships! Such a loss, even in the era when the United States' industrial capacity was at full fire, was definitely an irreparable amount in a short period of time.
What's more, this is only 1940, and the industrial production capacity of the United States has not yet been completely transformed, and even whether to enter the war, the old men in Congress have not yet thought about it.
Such a huge loss is completely left to Britain to digest on its own...... Coupled with the range problems caused by the loss of the Suez Canal, the British top brass now feels a sour feeling.
Churchill once boasted to his men in private, proudly saying that "the British Empire is undefeated until the last drop of blood is shed in India." ”
But now, India has not shed blood, but that blood cannot be transported back to Britain proper. India is now very far away from the British Empire, so far away that it would have to bypass all of Africa......
"At times like these, it is not a good idea to count on the Germans to be fooled." The foreign affairs officer reluctantly spoke, and Churchill's words continued.
The trick of having the Duke of Hamilton play monkey tricks on the Germans had already been used twice - and it was perfectly reasonable for the Germans to be cautious now.
Diplomatic fraud that was similar to this represents the country's credibility. This kind of thing is not a good choice to play once in a few decades.
Fortunately, the British side is not outright fraudulent, and it can be used to talk perfunctory. If it is an outright betrayal of the country's credit, then even if it wins the war, it will lose its reputation.
Credibility at the national level is much more important than some people think. How long did it take for Britain to build its credibility as a European mediator? It took about 130 years to see the importance of national credit.
"Yes, especially now that German spies still exist in our upper echelons. The Germans just have to ask casually, and they will get the truth. The director of the British Secret Security Service shook his head and said in a dejected voice.
Speaking of this, of course, it is the responsibility of the secret security bureau under his command. But now that this matter has involved all the departments in Britain, and everyone has found nothing, it is no wonder that he is incompetent.
"The Germans fought too well on the front. From the beginning of the war to the present, they have hardly ever lost. The Army Commander, Sir Deere, complained: "If we play so well, we will not give up ......"
Sir Deere's full name is John? Greer? Sir Deere, now in his position as Chief of the Imperial General Staff. He had just taken office at the time of the French campaign, and as a result, he could only command troops in Dunkirk and wait for rescue......
It is no wonder that Li Le prescribed such harsh conditions, making Britain a "semi-colonial and semi-capitalist country" completely. It's really Li Le who has no other way to completely eliminate the future trouble of the UK.
You must know that Li Le and the army of the Third Reich, and even the top leaders of most of the empire, firmly believe that there will inevitably be a fateful war between themselves and the Red Soviet Union.
Before the start of this fateful war, it is the basic consensus of Germany to solve all the troubles behind us and strive to have no worries.
Britain is a problem that must be solved. Before the war with the Soviet Union, Germany must defeat Britain so that Britain can no longer threaten the Atlantic defense line, this is the bottom line!
Because of this, Britain's dignified surrender is, in Li Le's view, something unacceptable -- what if it surrenders today, what if it suddenly turns back tomorrow?
Therefore, under the influence of this kind of thinking, Li Le and the German top brass finally reached a consensus that at least the English Channel should be erased, and the army should be stationed on British soil.
Only in this way can we completely avoid the two ends of the British head, and only by controlling the British Navy can we truly make the Atlantic Ocean a natural danger and prevent the United States from interfering in European affairs.
It's a pity that the navy and the English Channel, these are the bottom lines that Britain cannot compromise, so there is no possibility of peace between the two countries at all.
Britain can't give what Germany wants, and Germany, which Britain is willing to give, doesn't bother to ask for ...... This is the fundamental reason why the peace talks between the two sides are close to child's play, and as for the strategy of delaying the troops through the peace talks, this is only a small problem on the surface.
Looking at the men around him who had been beaten by various branches of the German military, Churchill sighed in his heart - this is really incomparable.
Around the Führer, the father of African fox armor or something. Sweeping through France and galloping across the desert, invincible in the sky and at sea...... There are many talents, and it is enviable to listen to them.
On his side, he commanded the retreat from Dunkirk, the retreat from Egypt, the retreat from London, and the transport war in the Atlantic...... If you think about it, it seems that there is an erhu soundtrack, and I almost can't hold back my tears.
In the conference room, there is one count, all of them are defeated generals who have "taught people to be people", and the first thing that comes to mind when mentioning the opponent is to hold the position, and the second reaction is to retreat.
What Wavell, what Cunningham, a slightly more famous general, are all drinking tea in German prisoner of war camps now, how can this battle be fought?
"Forget it!" With a cold snort, Churchill looked at his subordinates with sad faces, and scolded: "Think about it, how to use the existing food, and stick to it!" ”
