Chapter 819: Visit to the United Kingdom

In this era, most of the work was still manual, the application of mechanization was quite rare, and the speed of the German engineering units once again demonstrated to the world what Germany was capable of.

At the same time, this is also because Germany can't wait, Britain has been defeated, and Ciric has long wanted to come to London for a walk, but there are floods everywhere, so Ciric has been waiting until now.

Edward VIII was immediately overjoyed, and the first thing he did since he took office was to rebuild the barrage and subdue the flooding tides, which were left behind by George VI!

In this way, Edward VIII's first major national event can be regarded as coming to an end.

"Your Majesty, Führer Shirek will be visiting England tomorrow, and this is our top priority at the moment, and we must welcome him to the highest possible standard." Baron Morris said.

At the same time, they received the news that Ciric was coming to England, which was even more important to them, and after the surrender, the new master came for the first time!

"Yes, we have to meet it to the highest standard." Edward VIII said: "In this way, I will lead the group, and we will personally go to the airport to meet the visiting Führer Ciric. ”

Generally speaking, the foreign reception is the business of the foreign minister, and the king can greet him at the palace, but now that the king goes to the airport to greet him, the salary is of course high enough.

"As for the security work, the German side is in charge, so we don't have to worry about it." Hobart said quietly.

Now, it is still the Germans who control all the key departments in Britain, and this time Ciric's visit is just like walking around in the back garden of his own house, and the most important security work is, of course, the Germans themselves are responsible for it, and for Ciric's trip, it will not be disclosed to the British side in advance.

Ciric's visit is of great significance, as his visit represents Germany's official announcement that Britain has surrendered to Germany's feet!

Ciric is still flying on the Atlantic One, although for his trip, the range of the passenger plane is too big, but Ciric still likes to travel on this kind of passenger plane, especially the current passenger plane, which has been transformed into a presidential plane, which is more comfortable to ride.

Ciric looked out the window, more than a dozen F190s, escorting him, so as not to have the kind of ending of the later Yamamoto fifty-six.

Now that he is a hero and leader of Germany, and at the same time, an enemy of the conquered nations, he never expects to be able to bring everyone to his knees by means of probation, that kind of stubbornness is always there, and the best way for such a person is to make him disappear!

"Hannah, you look so excited." Ciric said to the woman beside him.

For more than ten years, Hannah has been silently by Ciric's side, from a girl, to a young woman, how many times of separation, Hannah has been silently waiting, now, with the continuous expansion of Ciric's career, Hannah is also more and more retreated to the back, she only in her spare time, will silently think about the past, thinking about India, in the Libyan desert, she feels extremely sweet.

On this state visit, Ciric brought his own woman and Hannah to England with him.

Hearing Ciric's words, Hannah couldn't help but lean her body against Ciric's body: "Yes, dear, I really want to go to Oxford Street." ”

The nature of a woman, even if she becomes the wife of the Führer and the most powerful person in the world, still has a tradition of liking shopping.

"Well, if I have time, I'll take you to see it." Ciric said.

As he spoke, the plane had already flown over the Channel and landed at London International Airport.

When he stepped out of the plane, the red carpet was already rolled out, and Edward VIII was waiting at the airport with the queen, various nobles, and a group.

There are no more people to welcome, at this time, just do a small ceremony, but in order to exaggerate the atmosphere, a large number of people come to welcome, what if there is an outlier in it?

"Führer Ciric, Madam, welcome." Edward VIII came up to shake hands and welcome him.

"It's a pleasure to be in the UK." "Although Britain has taken many wrong paths in the past, I firmly believe that under the leadership of King Edward VIII, Britain will move towards a more brilliant tomorrow, and Britain will be a loyal ally of Germany, just like France, let us work together to build a strong Europe!" ”

Where is the applause?

Everyone applauded, although what Ciric said was a cliché, it also showed Ciric's attitude, and besides, these people present were really optimistic about the future of Britain, otherwise, why would they follow Edward VIII?

"Führer Ciric, a grand welcome banquet has been prepared for you at the palace." The queen also stepped forward and said.

"Wait a minute, and then go to the palace." "Let's go to the Bank of England first. ”

Hearing Ciric's words, the nobles below were stunned for a moment, only Edward VIII quickly reacted, Ciric was going to the Bank of England, I'm afraid he was going to announce that big event!

In this way, it is better to save yourself from raising it yourself and arousing the opposition below, who would dare to raise objections in the words of Führer Ciric?

I got on the bus and headed straight to Needlework Street, where the Bank of England was headquartered.

In the United Kingdom, this bank undertakes the right to issue British currency. If we talk about history, it's been hundreds of years.

In the earliest days, the British royal family had a treasury mint, where the wealthy would store their gold and silver. One of the misdeeds of the royal family was the refusal to pay the gold coins that were kept there.

As a result, the merchants quit, and eventually the merchants gave birth to the Bank of England, a commercial organization that specializes in doing business with the royal family and avoids being pitted by the royal family.

After years of development, the Bank of England has become the central bank of the United Kingdom, monopolizing the nation's currency issuance, and now the United Kingdom still has the aura of an empire on which the sun never sets, and the pound zone occupies at least a quarter of the world's area.

At the very least, the Bank of England is already quite empty, or rather, gold reserves, almost depleted.

In recent years, Britain's economy has not developed much, and when the war came, the money was spent even more swishingly, and when Germany fought, it was almost exhausted, and if Britain had money, it would be enough to buy the Soviet Union and the United States directly with money, and there was no need to exchange the benefits of the colonies at all.

As for the rest of the gold, it was nowhere to be found, and by the time the German army, which had taken control of London, had taken control of the Bank of England, the bank was already empty.

And the person in charge of this bank is also gone, and now the person in charge of this bank is only a young man in his thirties, Sir Tucker.

Sitting in his chair, bored playing a solitaire game, Sir Tucker suddenly heard the sound of a car outside, and he poked his head out of the window to see a large number of German soldiers, jumping out of the cars.

What's going on? He was immediately shocked.

Then the soldiers began to stand guard, blocking the streets, and the commanding heights of various nearby buildings were also occupied by them.

It seems that there is going to be a big man! Then, the phone on his desk rang.
