Chapter 827: Cabinet Composition

When the German troops landed on the British mainland, Moseley was actually eager to try, but he did not jump out immediately.

He has a lot to do, for example, his party program, his philosophy of governance, and the expansion of his party membership, all of which will take time.

After all, although the prime minister of the United Kingdom is appointed by the king, it is not arbitrary, first of all, the United Kingdom has to elect, and the party to which the members who have the most seats in the House of Representatives belong is the ruling party, and the chairman of the ruling party can be named prime minister.

Over the years, although Moseley has been engaged in political activities, the results have not been good, for example, the number of party members in his party is less than 10,000, which is simply not enough to support a large party!

He once held elections in 35 years and ended up with no seats.

So, he urgently needs to turn his party into the number one party in the UK, and now is a good opportunity!

Because those who insisted on resisting the war had already begun to flee, especially after the news of George VI's arrival in Egypt, many people ran over to follow and wanted to continue the war.

In this way, the Conservative Party, the Labour Party, the Liberal Democratic Party, and so on, which were once dominant in Britain, are now rapidly weakening, and Moseley's party, which no longer has to worry about being excluded by the government, can finally develop.

These days, Moseley's party membership has grown to millions! Those who insisted on the War of Resistance have already left, and those who remain are of course willing to obey, in this case, it seems better to join this party of the same origin, right?

The rapidly expanding party finally gave Moseley confidence, so he dared to come to see Shirek, and he couldn't worry about anything, right?

The result? Before the parliamentary elections, His Majesty the King had already appointed himself Prime Minister!

"Your Majesty, this doesn't seem to be in accordance with the rules, we haven't started the campaign yet." Moseley said hesitantly, he would welcome it if he wanted, of course he wanted to agree immediately, but as a nobleman, he had to have a little backbone.

"These are extraordinary times." Edward VIII said: "Now, my subordinates have a suitable candidate to serve as the Secretary of State for Defense, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, etc., but for the candidate for this prime minister, I have not been confirmed, and now, when I see you, I know that you will definitely be the most suitable prime minister for us, and I believe in you." ”

Baron Maurice-Femoy, the Marquis of Montstuart, are doing their best these days, so it is imperative that they have a place in the new cabinet.

The prime minister is not decided by Edward VIII, he immediately appoints Moseley, but the other ministers, he has already proposed candidates, and Mosley will definitely not be able to refute it, so that the people in the cabinet are still loyal to Edward VIII and will not affect too much.

"I think it's a good decision." Ciric also spoke: "Prime Minister Moseley, I hope you will not live up to the trust of His Majesty the King. ”

Ciric's words were just right, and Moseley immediately agreed: "Okay, then I will definitely assist His Majesty the King to restore our economy, so that our country can come out of the war and return to its former strength." ”

Diana, on the side, has not spoken, as an elegant aristocrat, at this time, it is best for her to remain silent.

During the conversation, the British cabinet was also formed, and everyone was happy, so Ciric proposed that a temporary banquet be held to celebrate the establishment of the new cabinet, and wished Britain a better future.

At the same time that peace was restored to Britain and the country was ready to be rebuilt, in Egypt, a war slowly began.

El Alamein.

The El Alamein Line is 40 kilometers long between the city of El Alamein, on the Mediterranean coast of northern Egypt, and the Katara depression in the south. It was a necessary point for German advances, and it was also a key defensive area for British troops.

If you look at the map, Egypt is vast from north to south, and it seems that there are many ways to attack, but in fact, as in Libya, the attacking troops must attack along the coastline.

The main problem is supply. The operation of mechanized troops is quite dependent on logistical supplies, and in desert areas, the supply of fresh water alone is enough to keep logistics busy, so it is necessary to attack along the coastline along the way, so that they can be supplied by sea at any time, which is much simpler than on land.

If you really get inland, it will definitely be a nightmare for logistical supplies.

So, these days, Rommel has actually been on the offensive all the time.

After landing in Libya, Rommel's forces were almost furious, and in the whole of Cyrenaica, his armored forces finally stopped in front of Tubrug, and in order to reduce casualties, he applied for naval support.

Naval artillery blasted Tubrug into ruins, and by the time the tank forces swarmed up, there was little left to demand them.

The occupation of Tubrug made Rommel's logistical supply line unobstructed again, and the German ships that were supplied could dock directly at Tubrug, and the subsequent armored forces also landed directly in Tubrug.

After that, Rommel ordered his troops: no rest, no cleaning of the battlefield, full speed ahead!

Rommel's attack, like a gust of wind, destroyed the British forces at the fortified fortress of Tubrug, and then captured Badia, and then captured Salum, the first city on Egypt's western border.

Along the way, Rommel did not encounter much resistance, and when Montgomery's troops landed in Upper Egypt, they could only hastily set up a defensive line at El Alamein, which was already the last line of defense in front of Cairo.

If Montgomery fails, then the whole of Egypt is in danger. Germany can get Alexandria even further ahead, and they will rush to Cairo, the capital of Egypt, at once!

Fortunately, Rommel's troops were exhausted along the way, and they could only make a short repair, and after a few days of calm, finally, the German army's attack on the El Alamein Line began.

Historically, the Battle of El Alamein only began in 42 years, and this battle became an important turning point in World War II, since then, the German army in North Africa has been defeated until it was driven out of North Africa, and Rommel's dream of dominating the Middle East has been shattered.

And now, Rommel is commanding his legions, striding forward to achieve an outcome that has not been achieved in history, and his footsteps will reach Afghanistan all the way!
