Chapter 1242 The Spark of Freedom
(Starting tomorrow, I will update twice a day, 8,000 words, and I will try to finish the book by the end of the month)
British Prime Minister Viscount Halifax came to the Oval Office of the White House with a heavy heart as if he was about to be executed. After the Atlantic Armistice Day on May 8, this place once again became the office of the President of the United States.
Although everyone knows that the United States will inevitably pay a huge price for the final peace, the people in Washington, D.C. still breathed a sigh of relief. At least the atomic bomb will not fall from the sky and kill tens of millions of Americans.
But for the British Prime Minister who came from Canada, the Atlantic Armistice Day seemed to be a day of judgment! It was the day to sentence him to betray the country and the people...
Because the United States has given up the war, the Canadian people and the British troops who followed King George VI into exile in Canada have no interest in continuing to fight against the Queen's regime. So in the few days after May 8, the Dominion of Canada almost had a revolution. Every day, British troops with honor and lofty missions disintegrated or declared allegiance to the Queen.
The millions of American troops stationed in Canada were powerless to stop the British army's defection. After all, the war had ceased. If the American troops attacked the Queen's army, it would be equivalent to destroying the ceasefire, which Washington would never allow.
So on May 15, when George VI's Prime Minister Halifax set off from Ottawa to Washington, only the garrisons (British troops) in the capital Ottawa and the eastern city of Vancouver in Canada were still loyal to the king.
However, these British troops who were still loyal to the king obviously could not fight for the freedom and liberation of the British people. Even if they were willing to fight, they would certainly not be able to save the dying regime of George VI.
Therefore, Viscount Halifax, who ran to Washington, D.C. to meet Truman, was not here to ask for help, but to keep King George VI in exile in the United States. But even with such a small request, Viscount Halifax was not sure. It should be no problem for Americans to accept George VI. After all, he is the Queen's father, and Elizabeth II would not make things difficult for her father no matter how cruel she is. But it's hard for him to say...
With an uneasy mood, Halifax met the President of the United States in the spacious and bright Oval Office.
"Viscount, welcome to the White House." Truman looked a little old, at least 10 years older than before he became the President of the United States, but he was still a hundred times more energetic than Viscount Halifax.
"President, I'm here to ask for help." Viscount Halifax said in a hoarse voice, "The situation in Canada is very critical now. Many people have betrayed. The king and those who are loyal to the king are in danger. Only the United States can help us."
Truman nodded repeatedly and said, "I know, I know the situation in Canada... It's a pity that we didn't defeat the enemy. Now we can only choose to compromise and maintain our strength."
Can we still maintain our strength? Viscount Halifax felt his eyes brighten and looked at Truman quickly.
"Prime Minister, although we have to compromise, we must also preserve the flame of freedom and struggle." Truman said, "As long as we can preserve the flame, there will be a chance to revive the free world in the future. And the only place to keep the flame now seems to be far away Australia and New Zealand."
"In Australia and New Zealand?" Viscount Halifax was stunned again and again.
President Truman nodded heavily: "Yes, it can only be in Australia and New Zealand, because it is far away from Europe. If Hitler and Hessmann are going to conquer there, the army must pass through the Southeast Asian islands and oceans controlled by Japan, and may need to establish a military base in the East Indies. I don't think the Japanese will be stupid enough to provide help to the Germans, so as long as there are one to two million fighters who firmly believe in freedom and justice stationed in Australia and New Zealand, the Germans will have no way to conquer there, so we can keep the flame of freedom."
This judgment is basically in line with reality. Although the German army successfully landed in North America across the Atlantic, the distance from Iceland and the Azores, where the expeditionary force set out, to Newfoundland is only about 2,500 kilometers. The distance from Ceylon to the west coast of Australia is 5,300 kilometers! There is no possibility of airborne landing, and even long-range bombers cannot reach it. If you want to land successfully, you can only land on the beach from the sea.
And to land on the coast defended by millions of well-equipped freedom fighters across 5,300 kilometers without the cover of shore-based aviation, the cost and risk are so high that I am afraid that the German Empire is unwilling to bear it.
Besides... Australia does not have 1000 billion European marks to compensate. The Germans who have lived through more than 30 years of hardship since the First World War probably have no interest in conquering.
"Mr. President, do you mean to let the king go to Australia?"
"Yes! He is also the king of Australia and New Zealand," Truman said, "and a symbol of the unyielding free world. All American and British soldiers in Australia and New Zealand, or soldiers from other countries, will fight to the end to defend the king and the ideals and beliefs of the free world!"
"How many people will go there?" Viscount Halifax felt that the scene was bright at this time.
"Two million or three million, or even more!" Truman thought, "From now on, we will do everything we can to send people who dare to resist Nazi tyranny to Australia and New Zealand, regardless of their nationality, belief, skin color or gender."
Truman meant to pull as many people as possible to Australia and New Zealand, no matter who they are, as long as they don't get along with the two Nazi militarist countries of Germany and Japan - after all, the population of Australia and New Zealand is too small now, and if it is not increased as soon as possible, it will be difficult to withstand various tests in the future.
"In addition, we will send a large amount of weapons and equipment, ships, aircraft, fuel, daily necessities, machinery and equipment to Australia and New Zealand." Truman continued, "As long as the peace treaty is not finally signed, as a wartime president, I have the right to transport all kinds of materials to the war zone, and I will use this power to the fullest."
In fact, once the war is over, many surplus war materials will be worthless, and it will be troublesome to deal with them at that time, so it is better to send them all to Australia. Australia and New Zealand have enough war materials, which can deter Germany. If necessary, we can also support the struggle against Japanese colonial rule in Southeast Asia...
Truman finally said to Viscount Halifax: "Viscount, we will also put the secret weapons research against the Nazi and Japanese militarist tyranny in Australia... I think you know what that is, right?"
That is the Manhattan Project!
As a defeated country, although the United States only "agreed to lose" and not unconditionally surrendered, the peace treaty will definitely deprive the United States of the right to develop atomic bombs. Although the United States can still develop atomic bombs secretly, the risks are very huge.
So the Truman government secretly formulated a "Spark Plan" to move all the equipment, raw materials and personnel of the Manhattan Project to Australia.
Truman gritted his teeth and said: "Once we have an atomic bomb, the United States can regain its freedom!"
...
The news of the ceasefire and the upcoming victory celebration turned Berlin into a sea of joy. The originally wide streets with few pedestrians were somehow filled with people in festive costumes, cheering, dancing, hugging and kissing each other, so that the traffic was blocked.
The Mercedes-Benz 770K car that Hessmann was riding in could only drive slowly, passing through the crowded streets and heading towards the Chancellery.
"Long live victory!"
"Salute you, Reich Marshal!"
"Reich Marshal, I love you!"
Because the big car had the family crest of the Heinsberg-Hessmann family, many people recognized that it was the car of the imperial military god Hessmann. Everyone was saluting the car, and some blonde girls blew kisses. Now is the time when military uniforms are shining. A "military god"-level figure like Hessmann is almost a national idol and the dream lover of many girls - now Hitler is the number one public lover, and Hessmann is the number two public lover.
However, Hessmann, who was sitting in the car, was not in the mood to look at the German girls who blew kisses to him. He was now discussing the issue of suppressing the Indian revolution with Marshal Halder, who had just returned from India.
When Hessmann visited Britain, he agreed with the Queen and her husband to deal with the Indian Asan, and now of course he had to fulfill his promise. In fact, it is not difficult, because the group of Brahmin revolutionaries in India have been tossed around enough, and the majority of Indian Aryans and various bitches have recognized their true colors - if they follow them, if they succeed, the Aryans will lose everything, and the bitches will most likely be doomed (resisting the Brahmins is not a small crime)! And they can't succeed. Now that the United States and the Soviet Union have knelt, what "powerful country" do Indians still want? Dream on!
So during this period, more and more Aryans cooperated with the British (Germany).
"Franz, there is no need to end the war in India immediately." Hessman said to Halder, who had just been promoted to marshal, "Because when Canada is recovered, the Queen of England and the Prince Consort are ready to personally conquer India, and you have to leave the victory to them."
"Okay, that's no problem," Halder, who was a little tanned, smiled and replied, "They will get the prestige they want."
Herssman nodded: "Elizabeth II and Prince Friedrich will be crowned in New Delhi after the victory and become the Empress and Emperor of the Indian Empire... and then they will be crowned again in Lahore and become the Empress and Emperor of the Pakistani Empire."
India and Pakistan must be divided! However, the way of division is different from that in history. In addition to the territories of the historical small Pakistan (excluding Bangladesh), it will also include the Sikh Kingdom, the Kingdom of Bengal, the Kingdom of Hyderabad, the Kingdom of Jammu and Kashmir, and some other principalities and marquisates, becoming a great Pakistan Empire!
And the original British Indian Empire, after deducting the Pakistani Empire, Ceylon and Burma, is the new Indian Empire. Elizabeth II and Frederick I (Prince Frederick will be renamed Emperor Frederick I after being crowned as emperor) will become the monarchs of these two empires.
After being crowned, Elizabeth II and Frederick I will also confer titles on a large number of Indian and Pakistani nobles. All princely monarchs, as long as they are willing to pledge allegiance to the two majesties, will be conferred titles and become nobles of all sizes who are loyal to the empress and emperor.
At the same time, the British, Indians, Pakistanis and Germans who made meritorious service in the Indian Civil War will also be canonized and become nobles of India or Pakistan.
In addition, Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaisyas, and high-caste MSL people and their families who are willing to serve the Queen and the Emperor will also receive Indo-Aryan status and become first-class citizens of the Indian Empire and the Pakistani Empire. And those high-caste Indians and Pakistanis who resolutely oppose the Queen and Emperor will lose their castes and become untouchables!
In short, after nearly two years of research, the British and British-Indian authorities now know how to keep India and Pakistan within the territory of the British Empire forever.
After discussing the India and Pakistan issues with Halder, Hersmann's car had arrived at Hitler's Chancellery.
There are also many cheerful Berlin citizens gathered outside the Chancellery, and some construction workers are busy decorating Hitler's Chancellery. A week later, on May 28, 1945, Adolf Hitler will be here Declare victory in the war and organize a grand military parade!
"It looks like a dream!" Halder said with emotion when he got off the car, "This reminds me of November 1918..."
Hersman looked up at the swastika and eagle emblem hanging above the door of the Prime Minister's Office, smiled and said: "Yes, we have changed our destiny... Destiny can be changed, and we succeeded!"
"Yes! We succeeded!" Halder laughed happily, "It's great. We won the world and established a thousand-year empire!"
Just as the two of them were walking into the Chancellery while chatting, Hitler's military adjutant, Major General Keitel, had already hurried up to greet them and gave the two a German salute: "Hi, Hitler!"
Hersman and Halder also returned the gift. At this time, Hersman noticed that Keitel's expression was a little solemn, so he asked: "William, what's the matter?"
"Marshal Imperial, there was a small accident in Canada." Keitel said, "British King George VI and Prime Minister Viscount Halifax left with Princess Margaret and the nobles and troops loyal to them. Ottawa travels to Vancouver and makes a statement that it will continue to defend the flame of freedom in Australia and New Zealand."
