Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Axis Army, which won the victory at Easton, quickly began to launch a powerful attack on Dorset.

    Romeo and his Royal First Division, who always acted as the leading force, were also supplemented at the first opportunity.  This war commanded by Germany fully demonstrated the character of the Germans: they treat everything as an impeccable machine.

    Although such a character is a bit old-fashioned and even a little helpless, when it comes to war, people with such a character are the best commanders.

    The surrender of the British government troops in Easton has had a great impact on the British defenders in other places. They are so panic-stricken that they don't know how to continue on the road ahead.  Fight to the end with the Americans?  Or make the same choice as Colonel Taurus?

    For the Allies, Dorset was a vital strategic location. They could endure a defeat in Dorset, but they absolutely could not hold on. Dorset fell to the enemy without much fierce resistance.  in hand.

    General Cacchino and the Second Armored Army under his command were given the order to quickly reinforce Dorset.  And this is the opportunity that General Dorsett has been waiting for.

    Like General Vincent, he had already re-sworn allegiance to Her Majesty the Queen, but it was not the best time for the uprising. They had been waiting for the most suitable opportunity to come.  As the massive Axis landings began they knew the moment had come!

    General Cacchino did not show any objection to the tasks assigned to him by the Allied Command. On the contrary.  He even couldn't wait to command his powerful armored army to set off.

    At this point, General Gandra and their allied commanders are quite pleased, although some people have said that General Cachino is not trustworthy.  But judging from his current performance, he still maintains considerable loyalty to the Allies.

    However, all the Allied commanders, including General Gandra, had no idea what was about to happen that frightened them.

    The powerful Second Armored Group was undoubtedly advancing rapidly, but when they arrived at Deust, General Cacchino suddenly issued an order to temporarily stop their advance.  Until now, the officers have not had any suspicion.  General Cacchino has always been a very cautious man in using troops. He will not rush to launch an attack when the leading troops are isolated.

    Dorset is less than half a day's journey from Dorset, once the main force arrives.  I believe General Cachino will launch an attack soon.

    In the afternoon, the main force of the Second Armored Group finally arrived in Deust, and General Cacchino quickly convened a military meeting of senior officers.  These officers have been suffering from a delusion.  The attack will begin soon.

    But only a few of the general¡¯s confidants knew what would happen at this meeting.

    General Cacchino's eyes slowly swept over his men: "The order we received is to quickly reinforce Dorset. The leading troops of the Axis powers have already begun to launch an attack. In this situation, every minute  It's very valuable for us, but I think something has to be fixed otherwise it won't help us win."

    His subordinates looked at each other, what must be resolved?

    General Cassano was silent for a moment: "Should we continue to serve the Fenton government, or should we re-swear allegiance to Her Majesty the Queen?"

    With a "boom", the entire conference room was completely in chaos.  God, General Cassano asked such a question.  Each of them had no preparation at all before this. Although some people had such thoughts before, no one dared to express it publicly.

    You know, although the current battlefield situation is very unfavorable to the Allies.  But it is far from the desperate moment, and there is still news coming.  Reinforcements from the United States are about to arrive in Britain. Perhaps the new reinforcements can change the situation on the battlefield.

    But it was under such circumstances that General Cassano raised such a terrible question.

    General Cassano did not stop anyone. He just watched their discussion patiently until the discussion gradually stopped

    "I don't think there is anything surprising about this." General Cassano said slowly: "Everyone will always face many choices in his life, and this time is no different. Gentlemen, when Her Majesty the Queen  When we were traitors and were forced into exile, we, the officers of the British Empire, did not fulfill our oath and stood up in time, but chose to compromise with the traitors. This will cause an indelible shame in our lives.  One of our descendants is discussing usWe always say, look, it was our predecessors who did such things that caused England to suffer such suffering.  Behold, it was our father who did such things that we have never been able to hold our heads up ever since.  What can we do?  Watching all of this continue to happen?  Or find ways to make up for the mistakes we have made?  Trying to find ways to prevent our descendants from living a life of shame due to the mistakes we have made?  Gentlemen, can anyone give me the answer to this?  "

    There was silence in the conference room No one knew how to answer the question raised by the general

    General Cassano sighed softly: "If the final result of the war is that the Allies win, maybe we still have a chance to save it, but does anyone think we can win now? You, or you? At least I have  I am desperate for such a war. Her Majesty's Royal First Division has successfully completed the landing, and more troops will appear on British soil. Every one of us will be a loser.  Yes, every one of us. We can not think about ourselves, but we can't think about our wives and children. I love my wife, and I love my children even more. I hope they can hold their heads high.  Growing up, I proudly told everyone around me that my father was an upright officer. "

    It was surprisingly quiet in the conference room, and everyone seemed to be caught up in what the general said

    "We still have a chance. Any one of you still has a chance." General Cassano said in a slow but firm tone: "I will stop the mistakes I have made and work hard to repair them. I will  I am loyal to Her Majesty the Queen and will return to London with Her Majesty rather than die on the battlefield for the puppet government controlled by the Americans. I am not afraid of death. What I am afraid of is an dishonorable death.  Gentlemen, it's your turn now, and you have every right to make whatever choice you think is right. I can assure each and every one of you that any choice you make will be fully supported by me.  of respect!¡±

    The conference room was still surprisingly quiet. After a while, a colonel asked: "General. Our enemies, ah, no, will Her Majesty the Queen accept us again? You know. We have made many mistakes before.  Wrong. I¡¯m worried about what our future will look like.¡±

    This is what every officer worries about.  Whether Her Majesty the Queen will forgive them will go a long way in determining the choice they should make

    "I can't guarantee what your future will be like." General Cassano's answer was somewhat surprising: "I can't guarantee what will happen in the future. The only guarantee I can make is that I believe in Her Majesty the Queen.  She is not a cruel person. She can forgive her betrayal. Except for Fenton, Wilkins or Capanon, we are just soldiers, soldiers who simply follow orders. We will not be involved in political struggles, and we do not want to.  It¡¯s nothing more than being involved in a political struggle.¡±

    Although the answers received were not so satisfactory, all the officers knew that General Cassano was an honest and upright man

    General Cassano's tone gradually became a little heavier: "I don't want to deceive you anything. Maybe after the war is over, some of us will go to the military court, but in the court you can face your problems with pride.  My family, proudly tell them, yes, I have made mistakes, but I have made up for such mistakes. Even if I are shot today, I can still face my life calmly in front of God."

    At this time the phone rang. His adjutant took the call and listened for a while, then told Cassano that it was General Gandra himself calling, asking when they would continue to set off. Deust had already been attacked  The enemy is attacking and the situation is very critical now.

    "Please tell me how I should answer General Gandra." General Cassano did not get up to answer the phone immediately, but asked his subordinates.

    Silence continued again. After a while, the colonel who asked the question first said: "General, we have followed you for a long time. We know that every decision you make is correct, and it will be the same this time."  No exceptions. You can answer whatever you want, and you can say whatever you want to General Gandra."

    No one objected, not a single one objected.

    General Cardino finally stood up and took the phone from the adjutant: "I am Cassano, the commander of the Second Armored Group General Gandra, we have been here for such a long time.  Cooperation, but I will not miss it. From now on, my troops and I will renew our allegiance to Her Majesty until all Americans leave our land.?Good luck, General.  "

    The phone was hung up just like that, leaving only the stunned General Gandra on the other end of the phone

    Prime Minister Wilkins had no idea what was going on. He couldn't wait to turn his attention to General Gandra. After a long time, General Gandra put down the phone, and then his face showed unspeakable bitterness:  "Failure may be getting closer to us. Your Excellency, Prime Minister, just now, General Cassano announced his rebellion."

    This news exploded like thunder over the heads of senior British officials. They were completely unable to figure out what happened General Cassano rebelled?  God, how is this possible?  Not long ago General Cassano seemed so loyal.

    And in the future, how many people will choose the same path as General Cassano?

    "Counter rebellion, counter rebellion!" Kapanon shouted angrily: "Mobilize all available troops nearby to counter the rebellion of the Second Armored Group Army. Traitors! These shameful traitors! We will never allow this to happen.  occur!"

    No one responded to his hysteria. General Gandra smiled bitterly: "Mr. Minister of Defense, the first thing we have to do now is not counter-insurgency. It is how to prevent the situation from deteriorating further. We must face the current bad situation.  With the mutiny of the Second Armored Army, we are gradually losing control of the battlefield. Doist can no longer hold on, and what I can confirm is that with General Cassano's influence, Doist's.  The defenders will soon surrender, and the enemy will be able to move forward without wasting troops on unrealistic efforts to counter the rebellion. "

    Kapanon said nothing more. He was overwhelmed with anger just now. Now that he calmed down and carefully considered General Gandra's words, he felt that this was probably their only choice at the moment

    The faces of the senior officials of the British Fenton government who were attending the meeting showed fear and fear.  From the outbreak of the war to the present, bad news came one after another, and one after another senior officers of the government army rebelled.  And what is certain is that more and more people will rebel.  The Fenton administration was already in turmoil.

    Can failure be avoided?  No one can answer this question.  At least judging from the current progress of the war.  It was difficult to save the situation.

    General Gandra cheered up: "Gentlemen, we don't have to worry too much about the current situation. Yes, it seems that the enemy is making very smooth progress, but the war has just begun, and we still have strong troops.  Moreover, additional reinforcements from the United States are about to arrive on the battlefield. We are fully capable of saving the situation and dealing a heavy blow to our enemies"

    "It's a pity that not many people are willing to trust his words.  before the war broke out.  The U.S. government and the Fenton government have made various wonderful promises over and over again, but none of them can be fulfilled.  On the contrary, situations of this kind continue to appear in the UK.  Do they have to wait until the enemy enters London before they can wake up?

    No, they don¡¯t want to become such sad victims Driven by this mentality, many people think that they must make some changes.  Their families are still in the hands of the Germans, but the families of President Fenton, Prime Minister Wilkins, and Minister Capannon have been released. Of course, they will not have any worries.  But what about everyone else?  Others are not so lucky.

    When the Fenton government first took power, the vast majority of officials remained quite loyal to this government. However, the changes that have occurred over the past few months have caused this loyalty to change rapidly.  Especially during the release of the Galaxy hostages, countless officials felt that they had been deceived and betrayed by the Fenton government.  Should they still unconditionally swear allegiance to the Fenton government?

    Once a person¡¯s heart changes, it will be a very terrible thing The belief they once had collapsed and they must make necessary changes

    Fenton, Wilkins, and Capagnon are not unaware of this situation, but they are equally powerless.  At the moment of the crisis, everyone's mood was completely different, and even they themselves became seriously pessimistic about the prospect of war.

    Only General Gandra reluctantly redeployed operational adjustments, but he was not optimistic about how effective this adjustment would be.  But this is the only thing he can do in the current situation.

    When the officials left the conference room listlessly, Prime Minister Wilkins suddenly said: "Your Majesty, General, do you think General Vincent is trustworthy?"

    General Gandra was startled for a moment. He was a British general. Why did he ask himself in turn?What kind of American?  He thought for a while before giving his answer: "I can't say more details, but there has been an evaluation of General Vincent before, and from the evaluation report, General Vincent is still trustworthy.  "

    "No, I no longer trust any assessment." Prime Minister Wilkins shook his head: "Maybe this was manipulated by Lieutenant Colonel Moyol again. Damn it, there is something he can't do.  ? All of us were played by him like a fool. Vincent has always maintained a good and close relationship with Cassano. Cassano has rebelled, so who knows what Vincent will do?  Something terrible happened."

    "But we must take practical issues into consideration." Capanon said with concern: "Maybe your concerns are correct, Prime Minister, but Vincent has a much deeper foundation in the army than Cassano.  Moreover, he still has a large number of troops in his hands. If he attacks him without any conclusive evidence, I am worried that it will cause a radical change in the army. "

    Prime Minister Wilkins frowned. Capanon¡¯s concerns were not unreasonable.  He thought carefully there: "We really can't do anything to Vincent without evidence, but he must be transferred out of London. He is too unsafe here. He and the army must be transferred  separate."

    Probably this is the best choice for the British under the current situation!  (To be continued)
