Reborn South Africa as a police officer

Chapter 2433 Restoration is impossible

Gavin did something, but not to the point of being knighted, is the earl of the United Kingdom so worthless?

The root cause is that Gavin is of value to the United Kingdom.

It's a pity that the United Kingdom has nothing to offer, and the title has become one of the few bargaining chips. The key is Cape Town, and Gavin will not accept it unless he is crazy.

As the earliest British colony, Cape Town has a special status in southern Africa, and the Cape State is still the most concentrated concentration of British in southern Africa.

As the former suzerain of southern Africa, the United Kingdom still has a certain influence on southern Africa, especially in Cape, where most British people still have illusions about the United Kingdom.

It is impossible for the UK not to know about this situation.

"It's just an honor, you don't have to worry too much." Winston seemed relaxed.

"I heard that Buckingham Palace wants to make you Duke of London—" Gavin shot back easily.

Just last month, it was rumored that George VI was going to grant Winston the Duke of Renton, but Winston wisely declined.

If it was as easy as Winston said, why didn't Winston accept it?

"That's just a rumor, nothing—" Winston denied it.

Gavin smiled and said nothing, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not, the key is the attitude of the royal family and Winston.

There are more than 20 dukes in the UK, either the royal family or the founding heroes, and there are not many people with foreign surnames.

London is the capital of the United Kingdom and has a special status. If George VI really wanted to make Winston a duke, he would not have made Winston in London at all.

So it's a question of attitude, the royal family rewarded Winston, and Winston showed his humility, his perfection.

Seeing that Gavin didn't accept the call, Winston immediately changed the subject: "Your actions in the Mediterranean are very fast, especially your paratroopers. I hope our paratroopers can also perform so well."

This cannot be blamed on Roque for acting without authorization. Before Roque approved Arthur's operation, he greeted Winston and Roosevelt in advance. Winston and Roosevelt did not approve of launching operations in the Apennine Peninsula. On the upcoming "Overlord" operation.

There are good reasons for this, but there are other reasons as well.

In the Battles of Sicily and Sardinia, the British and American paratroopers performed poorly, which caused a huge error in the assessment of the Italian troops by the British and American troops.

In fact, it is not an error. Before the launch of the Battle of Sicily, Roque also reminded Roosevelt and Winston many times that the Italian army fighting on the mainland will definitely explode its full combat effectiveness, which is completely different from that in North Africa.

Roosevelt and Winston were unimpressed at the time.

After the Battle of Sicily, based on the performance of the Italian troops on the Russian battlefield, Roosevelt and Winston remembered Roque's judgment on the Italian army.

To put it bluntly, I was worried that the casualties would be too heavy to explain to the country.

So try another direction, maybe the French are easier to bully.

"The situation in Italy now is different from the situation in Italy before." Gavin didn't explain much. Everything he said now is an afterthought. It is impossible for the British and American troops to transfer their main forces back to Italy.

"You only used the Fifth Army in the direction of Italy, so you are fully capable of taking on a greater role." Winston hoped that southern Africa would send more troops to participate in the "Overlord" operation.

A week ago, Winston went to Congress to deliver a speech, and was questioned by some members of Congress. Opponents hoped that Winston would spend more energy on maintaining people's livelihood instead of saving Europe.

Especially France.

Winston did not talk about the specific location of the "Overlord" operation in Congress, but it is clear that either Calais or Normandy, both of which are located in France.

In the last world war, Britain paid a huge price to protect France. Will the tragedy repeat itself this time?
Some things cannot be said too clearly.

Opponents also know that protecting France is protecting Britain, but they voluntarily admit this because the situation has not deteriorated to the worst level, after all, the German army has not yet landed in Britain.

So the reason for the opposition is that Britain is already in such a difficult situation. As the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Winston, you do not take the protection of people's livelihood as the first task, but to save France. Are you the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom or the President of France?

It is said that Winston, who was besieged by the opposition at the time, was very embarrassed, and his allies failed to give him any help.

It is inappropriate to say anything at this time. Supporting Winston is disregarding people's livelihood. The opposition is best at labeling.

"A soldier fighting on the front line needs at least five people behind him to provide him with various support services, so our troops around the Mediterranean Sea have gone all out." Gavin knew what Winston was worried about.

The two major countries in the Mediterranean Sea, Free France will definitely take the leadership of France after the war, and stand firm.

If Southern Africa regains Italy, Italy will definitely become the sphere of influence of Southern Africa after the war. At that time, Britain will lose its leadership in the Mediterranean. How long can Britain maintain control over the Suez Canal and the Strait of Gibraltar?
Winston is not short-sighted, on the contrary, he has a long-term vision. He would rather have his friendship with Rock affected, and he insisted on keeping the Southern African army out of North Africa. The root cause is the growing influence of Southern Africa.

Now the situation in North Africa is completely out of control. Even the oil fields discovered in the UK have to be handed over to Adan Company for development. Winston and the United Kingdom have been cornered.

"We are now facing great trouble, very serious, very dangerous—" Winston let out a long sigh, infinitely desolate.

Who can blame Gavin for not responding?

Or, of all the countries in the world, which one is not in trouble?

Not to mention the weak and weak countries, their biggest trouble is whether they can survive.

For the more powerful countries, Germany and Russia are both losing, Japan is about to fall, France is falling, Italy is beaten into macaroni, the United States and southern Africa are in a better situation, but they are dragged down by the old continent, and they cannot survive alone in this worse world.

Let’s not talk about the United States, just take southern Africa as an example. During the World War, it lent so much money to Britain and Russia. How many years will it take to get it back after the war?

The countries around southern Africa are all living with southern Africa. The boss lives well, and the younger brothers have to have a drink of soup, otherwise the younger brothers will rebel.

The expansion of southern Africa has been smooth sailing for these years, but for those Africans who were expelled and worked in southern Africa, it was a history of blood and tears. God knows if they will seek compensation from the federal government of southern Africa in the future.

None of this would be a problem if Southern Africa had been strong.

In the event that southern Africa also decays into the United Kingdom like the British Empire, then these problems will be concentrated.

Therefore, it is better to ask for others than to ask for yourself. Gavin, an outsider, can't speak for the British problems that only the British can solve.

"A stable United Kingdom is the cornerstone of stability in this world—" Winston sincerely hoped that southern Africa would give the United Kingdom selfless help in the same way it did to Free France.

Southern Africa is really like a son to Free France, otherwise Free France would not have such a strong relationship with Southern Africa.

Winston wanted to ask, but he couldn't get rid of his old face in front of Gavin, a junior, so he could only ramble.

If it were Rock, Winston would have to get some benefits even if he was begging for nothing.

Gavin just nodded.

A stable United Kingdom is good, but without the United Kingdom, the world would probably be better off.

You can only think about this, and you can't say it in front of Winston, otherwise Gavin is afraid that Winston will not be able to get up in one breath.

"After the 'Overlord' operation starts, I will go to southern Africa and talk to your father face to face." Winston went around and still had to ask Rock for help.

The results of the Tehran meeting showed that the Americans are unreliable. During the Tehran meeting, Roosevelt and the bearded man met many times and talked about something that Winston didn't know, but they must have reached some consensus.

Since the end of the Tehran Conference, the United States has once again increased its assistance to Russia.

This time it is not just weapons and equipment, but also machinery and equipment, as well as production processes. The Americans are helping Russia to improve its technical level in an all-round way.

After the technical level of the Russians comes up, who is the first threat?
Not America anyway.

"Okay, I'll send a telegram to Pretoria." Gavin was the sounding board in this matter and couldn't make a decision.

Winston invited Gavin to dinner, not to test Gavin's attitude.

The next day, Gavin knew that when Winston was having dinner with Gavin, an incident in Italy might determine the fate of Italy after the war.

This matter has to start with the old Italian king who has been in North Africa.

His Majesty III was depressed in North Africa, with no way to go to heaven and nowhere to go, and his situation was worse than that of a certain library director in Italy, which made His Majesty III very sad.

It is estimated that His Majesty III will definitely regret countless sleepless nights. If he had known this was the case, he should not have left Italy in the first place and fought to the death with the Allies.

Fools will eventually be punished.

After Arthur launched his attack in Italy, His Majesty III's chance finally came.

No one expected that Arthur's operation in Italy would be so smooth. Rome surrendered without firing a shot. The German army was defeated by the overwhelming bombing of the southern African air force. There were hundreds of thousands of Italian troops defending south of Rome. After the surrender of Rome, the Italian troops south of Rome expressed their intention to stop fighting and stay in place to wait for the southern African army to take over.

"Southern Africa" ​​should be highlighted.

This means that the Italian army only surrendered to the southern African army, and the British and Americans stayed cool.

Almost within a week, most of the Apennine Peninsula was decided, and only northern Italy, where the German troops were stationed, was still on the sidelines.

On the second day after Rome surrendered, His Majesty III was impatient and took the initiative to find Barton, hoping that Barton would send troops to escort His Majesty III back to Rome.

For this reason, His Majesty III promised Patton that after he returned to Rome, he would, as the King of Italy, order all Italian troops to defect and lead Italy to join the Allied forces.

This idea is good, but unfortunately it is not realistic.

The question now is not whether Barton will allow His Majesty III to return to Rome, but that the Italians no longer need him as a king.

At the most difficult time in Italy, the king abandoned his people and fled Italy, which broke the hearts of all Italians.

Not to mention sharing life and death, even sharing joys and sorrows, why do you still need a king?

It's okay if you don't have the ability, you don't even have the responsibility, and you just plan how to jump around repeatedly every day to get the most benefits. It's true that Italians like the nickname "noodles" so much.

Italians can also be baguettes, weapons-grade, if necessary.

Patton earnestly analyzed his interests and interests to His Majesty III.

His Majesty III disagreed with Barton's statement.

In the words of His Majesty III, Italians are loyal and peace-loving. As long as he announces on the radio that Italy has withdrawn from the war, all Italians will cheer for his wise decision.

Therefore, all Barton's rhetoric, in the eyes of His Majesty III, is to create obstacles for him to return to Rome.

Since Barton couldn't make sense here, His Majesty III turned around and went to Alexander.

I don't know how His Majesty III persuaded Alexander. Early the next morning, Alexander boarded the destroyer of the Mediterranean Fleet and personally escorted His Majesty III to Rome.

As the king of the Kingdom of Italy, His Majesty III deserves this treatment.

Algiers is very close to Rome. One day later, His Majesty III arrived in Rome, as if it had been a lifetime.

During the period after the end of the Battle of Sardinia, the Allied bombing of Rome has never stopped, once a week, more punctual than the flight.

Under the repeated visits of the Allied bombers, Rome is not only full of ruins, but also completely changed. The valuable bombing targets have been bombed by the Allied forces at least ten times.

Ports, airports, and railway stations are all valuable targets. All ports near Rome are under the control of the southern African army. After the passenger ship of His Majesty III arrived in Rome, he couldn't help crying when he saw the devastation.

Alexander didn't speak, with a mocking smile on his face.

Crocodile tears.

"General, the southern Africans have ordered us to stay where we are and wait." The communications officer brought a telegram from the Cyprus Squadron.

"Tell the southern Africans that the king of the Kingdom of Italy is on my warship." Alexander was full of confidence. In the capital of Italy, who would dare to stop the king of Italy.

The communications officer had a slightly embarrassed expression and stood still.

"What do people in southern Africa say?" Alexander realized that something was wrong.

"Southern Africans say that the battle in Rome is not over yet, and there are still Germans resisting in the city, so for the safety of His Majesty the King, His Majesty the King cannot return to Rome yet."

This reason seems to be very good.

Alexander listened.

There seems to be no movement.

"Rush, rush over, I am the king of the Kingdom of Italy, this is my land, no one can stop me." His Majesty III was suddenly furious, he was so close to the palace, yet out of reach.
