Americans have not figured out Hans’s purpose yet, but the British on the other side of the strait feel a huge crisis at this time!

“”Your Excellency, the German army has held a military parade in the Iron Tower City. They have also invited leaders of many countries to visit and show off their military power. We must do something, otherwise these countries are likely to side with Hans!”

The Chief of General Staff said to Prime Minister Lloyd George worriedly.

The old prime minister was not in a good mood at the moment, and his face was full of fatigue.

From the beginning of the war to now, in just over a month, he looked at least ten kilograms thinner. He was already old, and now he looked even older, so weak that he seemed to be blown down by a gust of wind!

When Prime Minister Lloyd George was first reappointed as prime minister by King George V, his heart was full of strong political ambitions!

He hoped that his return to the prime ministership would be able to do something that would benefit the country and the people and would go down in history.

However, since he replaced Prime Minister Stanley a few years ago, he found that the situation was completely out of the control of the British Empire. Ten years ago, the British Empire could still continue the prestige of the victorious country in the First World War. Command the heroes.

But at this time, with the continuous retreat of the British army on the European continent, they lost their foothold on the European continent!

And their behavior of watching their allies being eliminated without lending a helping hand also made those former allies feel disheartened. So, when the World War broke out suddenly, Prime Minister Lloyd George suddenly found that their British Empire had almost become an isolated country in Europe. No country was willing to stand on their side and fight side by side with them! Although the national strength of the British Empire is strong, they can’t deal with the more powerful Hans alone!

Hans is now much stronger than before World War I. During World War I, the British Empire had three allies: Gaul, the Bear and the Eagle Sauce, plus the powers such as the Foot Basin and Italy. They almost gathered all the powerful countries in the world. It took the power of six of the top seven countries to put Hans to death!

However, Hans is now more vigorous than before, and there are not many allies left around the British Empire. They can no longer command the heroes like they did in the past, and their armies are not as strong as they were in the past!

Therefore, at the beginning of the war, the British Empire lost the confidence to defeat Hans, which led to their policy of tolerance and retreat in the face of Hans’s relentless pressure, shrinking their own strength little by little, hoping to negotiate with Hans and guide Hans to attack the Russian bear in the east!

They adopted a policy of appeasement to appease Hans’ emotions, and tried to divert trouble to the east to resolve the crisis so that they could be in a favorable position to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

Unexpectedly, the hunters who were hunting became the prey, and they were turned against by the German army. Attack, a sudden Gallic War, completely shattered their beautiful fantasy!

The German army rushed into Benelux with great momentum, and then suddenly broke out of the Ardennes Forest. In just a few days, the situation on the battlefield took a sharp turn for the worse. Before they could react, the German army had already captured Dunkirk, and then launched a fierce attack on the Iron Tower City!

In less than a month, the three Benelux countries were destroyed one after another, and the Gaul War in Europe was defeated and surrendered!

After losing 30,000 troops, the sun never sets and had to retreat to its homeland to lick its wounds.

At this time, they can be said to have no allies in Europe!

Without allies, it means no foothold and helpers.

Although they have a strong navy, it is impossible for the navy to kill the German army on land, so their navy can only sigh at the land!

The sun never sets has been a troublemaker in Europe for hundreds of years.

During this period, there have been many challengers rising on the European continent, but no challenger has ever posed such a huge threat to them, not even Napoleon at the time!

Therefore, the worried senior officials of the British government gathered together and tried to save face by air strikes.

If they were lucky, they might be able to kill Hans’ leader Mainz during the military parade.

In that case, they might still have a chance to turn defeat into victory!

However, the Chief of General Staff’s words were quickly rejected by the Air Force Commander!

“Sorry sir, we can’t do anything about it!”

The Air Force Commander said regretfully.

“Why? When the Germans attacked us before, they used their powerful air force to bomb us so badly. Why can’t we do the opposite and use the air force to bomb them?”

Many of the generals present were senior generals who had withdrawn from the European battlefield in a panic!

Although the Allies lost Dunkirk, resulting in hundreds of thousands of troops being blocked in Benelux and other places and being annihilated by the Germans, when this army was surrounded, a small number of officers still withdrew from the sea! The

British Army did not have the ability to evacuate all of the hundreds of thousands of troops, but they still sent out as many ships as possible to withdraw important talents such as senior officers!

The loss of 300,000 troops is certainly heavy, but if the backbone personnel of these troops are also lost, it would be unacceptable!

For the British Army, it is not difficult to recruit 300,000 cannon fodder, but after recruiting a large number of cannon fodder, if there are not enough officers to lead and train them, then this group of people is a mob and cannot be called an army at all! It is easy to get thousands of troops, but it is difficult to get a general. This kind of This principle is universal whether in ancient times or modern times!

These army officers who abandoned their own troops and retreated from the European continent in a panic, they had witnessed the power of the German Air Force on the battlefield with their own eyes. In the Battle of Dunkirk, the city was originally under their control, but the German army, with the cooperation of Stuka dive bombers, bombed them and caused heavy casualties, with corpses everywhere! The

British troops on the front line had never suffered such severe bombing, so that most of their personnel and equipment were killed and injured before they had time to open fire!

Moreover, the German air-to-ground coordination was very good. As soon as the dive bombers finished dropping bombs, the tank clusters on the ground had already begun to charge.

As a result, the British army had no chance to organize an effective defense, and they were wiped out by the German army like chopping melons and vegetables!

The Battle of Dunkirk was the first battle in which the British army confronted the German army head-on on the battlefield.

The scale of this battle was not very large. There were less than 100,000 British troops stationed at the position. A large number of follow-up troops were blocked by the German bombing on the road and could not arrive at the battlefield to support them in the first time. Therefore, until the defenders of Dunkirk were eliminated, they did not get their reinforcements!

This battle caused a huge shock to the British army. There were two pieces of equipment that left a profound impact: the dive bombers with sharp whistles, like the death god from hell, and the tanks equipped by the German army, which were fast, powerful and indestructible!
