British Civil Servant

Chapter 71: take the lead

Although in terms of area, the British-occupied area is not the largest of the Shikoku-occupied areas, there is no doubt that the British-occupied area is the essence of Germany. Otherwise, it will not be mentioned frequently by the United States. It is necessary to replace the occupied area with the United Kingdom and finally win an enclave port.

From this point of view, it can be seen that in 1945 Britain and the United States also had limited trust, but they had more common language when facing the Soviet Union.

"Respected Lieutenant General Ronald, it seems that the situation here is worse than expected." After Alan Wilson arrived at the British Army Headquarters, he stated what he had seen and heard. To be honest, the spirit of German citizens here in Hamburg The state is completely different from that of Greater Berlin. If you compare it, it is not far from the people of British India.

"As you can see, the current work is only done to clear the port, and the ruins in the city have not been cleaned up at all." Lieutenant General Ronald Weeks did not show contempt because Alan Wilson was a liaison officer. .

The war should be said to have ended for Britain. Naturally, a soldier like him would not be thinking about maintaining world peace like Prime Minister Churchill. Now that the war was over, Lt. Gen. Ronald Weeks got to work on other issues, and Marshal Montgomery went straight to Berlin to receive flowers and applause, leaving him to deal with the mess.

Then Lieutenant General Ronald Weeks asked about the purpose of Alan Wilson's coming from Berlin, and Alan Wilson had nothing to hide, "The restoration of order in the British-occupied area as soon as possible has caused many ministers to worry. I myself Because he is also the liaison officer for British India and happens to be in Germany, the Permanent Undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs suggested to the Foreign Minister to see if he can think of a way. Go here and deal with it."

"This matter is really gratifying." Lieutenant General Ronald Weeks nodded and replied simply, "The order and stability of the British-occupied area is not just the responsibility of the army, the commander of the British army. The Ministry very much welcomes the joint efforts of all departments.”

"It's an award, General!" Alan Wilson nodded politely. "If possible, the clean-up of the British-occupied area should use the original German soldiers. This is their obligation, isn't it?"

"Of course, we're already doing this." Lieutenant General Ronald Weeks pointed to the outside of the office. "You can see the German General Staff when you go out and turn left. But then again, about the arrival in Hamburg. We really need these German staffs to distribute the food, after all, we are not locals, so there may be omissions in the distribution.”

"General, I want to meet the Germans and see if I can help." Alan Wilson said proactively.

Afterwards, with the approval of Lieutenant General Ronald Weeks, Germany had officially surrendered. The surrendered German soldiers were not treated as cruelly by the United Kingdom as the United States and the Soviet Union.

In fact, when it comes to this issue, if Alan Wilson has a chance, he really wants to go to the Rhine camp to see if the Americans have left any clues. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to think so.

At present, more than two million German soldiers have surrendered to the British-Canadian coalition in the British-occupied area. The British-occupied area is divided into four military areas responsible for occupation affairs: in addition to the formation of the Berlin military area, the remaining British-occupied area is divided into three parts, the Schleswig Ge-Holstein Military District: General Buck is in charge of the Eighth Army, two divisions and an armored brigade.

Hannover Military District: General Horrocks is in charge of the 30th Army, three divisions and an armored brigade. Westphalia Military District: under General Crocker, commanding I Corps, four divisions and an armored brigade.

The other troops are managed by himself, forming a general reserve, just in case. The purpose of the British Command is to use the organization of the military command of the corps, divisions, brigades, and regiments to rebuild the local government in the British-occupied areas in an orderly manner.

These headquarters govern the corresponding counties, towns, townships and other areas, and all work is carried out through the corresponding civil affairs organizations.

As for where the British commander Montgomery is currently, according to the British command, Marshal Montgomery is in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, to receive the title of honorary citizen of Copenhagen.

"To be honest, the current mess in Germany should not be cleaned up by our soldiers, but by German soldiers. Wouldn't these two million soldiers not be able to rebuild their own homes?" Before leaving the British Command , Alan Wilson said brokenly, "The German soldiers who surrendered to us are considered lucky, the soldiers who surrendered to the Americans are still locked in the Rhine camp, and the soldiers who were caught by the Soviets, digging potatoes in Siberia is their only destiny. . But we British troops manage the occupied areas with noble professionalism, but we can't be their nanny, and the Germans themselves should make a little contribution."

"The headquarters is also dealing with this matter~www.NovelMTL.com~ The staff officer who sent Alan Wilson out shrugged, "The most important thing is to solve the problem of eating now. As for the restoration of traffic, it will be a matter in the future, for sure. Indispensable Germans. "

"These are all free labors. It's good not to treat them as war criminals. If you need them, you're welcome. Two million people. If you take out the energy of building the Siegfried Line, I believe that in half a year, the British-occupied areas will be destroyed. It's going to be a new look." Alan Wilson gave sincere advice, and honestly he wanted to write plans for the British Command.

In this way, he will be able to know where in the German Ruhr area in the British-occupied area, there is a good place to dig for gold.

Alim's cargo ship arrived a few hours later than expected, but considering the current situation at the port of Hamburg, this is not a delay. As soon as he got off the ship, he found Alan Wilson and apologized, "The port has been severely damaged, for safety's sake. It took some time to enter the port."

"It doesn't matter, grain is the most precious in Germany now, and it's not just Germany. The gardens in the center of Vienna are now used to grow potatoes, you understand what this means." Alan Wilson turned and glanced at the freighter, "British India The monarch of Hyderabad, the venerable Maharaja Ali Khan, is willing to help Europeans in difficulties with the kindness and selflessness that he has never seen before. This is something worth writing about. It deserves a front page headline Doing so could also give the British India Governor's House a lead role."

Even Ali Khan, who was in a state of de facto independence, was able to help the British Empire in a hurry. Civil servants in British India had such an example, how could they not work hard to scrape the ground? This took the lead.

The world's richest man will make a sample first, and the subsequent British Indian civil servants will be able to keep up, right?
