Bulgarian Empire

On March 7, 1941, Bulgaria issued the "Letter to the British People". On this day, a large number of leaflets fell from the sky, bringing the news to London.

What is even more unacceptable to the London government is that Bulgaria has even announced a disposal plan for the UK. The main points are as follows:

1. Admit the defeat of the war and be responsible for this world war;

2. Surrender war criminals and send them to international courts for trial; (still in preparation)

3. Ceded all overseas colonies;

4. The Irish established their own country;

5. Confiscate all overseas assets of the British as war indemnities; (including the overseas claims of the British, all those involving the victorious countries will be erased)

6. Disband the Royal Navy, and hand over all warships and military bases to the Holy Alliance;

7. Disarm the United Kingdom, and only keep the police force to maintain law and order. The Holy Alliance is responsible for the national security of the United Kingdom; (Note: Military expenses still have to be paid)

8. It is forbidden to engage in any military production and research and development, and all weapons are imported from overseas;

9. From the date of the announcement, the British government is ordered to surrender immediately and unconditionally, and 5 tons of gold will be added for each day of delay as war reparations.

After the release of the Nine Articles of Protection, there was an uproar in the British Isles. If they agreed to such conditions, they would not want to stand up.

Ceding the colony is nothing more than that. Now that the war has progressed, everyone knows that the overseas colonies cannot be kept.

There is no way to confiscate overseas assets and erase debts. Who calls them a defeated country?

It is very fatal to disarm and prohibit engaging in the military industry. Without your own armed forces, how can you make a comeback?

What's more, they don't know that Bulgaria is already preparing to form the United Nations, and the funds for this will come from the defeated countries.

At present, some people in the Bulgarian government have proposed that the United Nations should guarantee the national defense security of the defeated country, and the defeated country will naturally have to pay for this, and spend the money they should have spent on military expenses on the administrative expenses of the United Nations.

However, it has not yet been approved, mainly because the Bulgarian military is willing to undertake this business. If feasible, this service can be extended to other countries in the future.

Considering the image of the country, the military's claim was rejected by the government. The blatant collection of protection fees looks too ugly, and in times of peace, the money may not be able to be collected.

As the creator of the new international order, Bulgaria will definitely be the defender of the world order in the future. People don’t need security protection in peacetime, and it’s impossible for Bulgaria to initiate war because of this?

These issues are still in a state of controversy, and will not be settled for a while.

This time the world will win more easily. Bulgaria is about to gain a large overseas colony, and the globalization strategy can be launched immediately.

In order to avoid the lessons of Americans in his previous life, Ferdinand made a decision early on to place all military bases in his overseas territories.

In other words, the lease of territory will not happen. Even if it involves the territory of other independent countries, the Bulgarian government will buy it out at one time, either by giving money or exchanging territories.

Solve all the problems once and for all, and save people from being expelled by the country in peacetime, and everyone will not look good.

London

After receiving the "Letter to the British People" issued by the Bulgarian government, the London government became popular.

Some people advocate fighting to the end and moving the capital to fight again, while others advocate surrendering and stopping losses. In the final analysis, it is still a matter of interests.

As the promoters of this war, the British have already suffered heavy losses, basically losing all their wealth, and many interest groups attached to the British Commonwealth have also suffered heavy losses.

Prime Minister Winston Churchill has locked himself in his room all morning, and what to do with the Commonwealth of Nations is a heavy topic.

If Bulgaria still has an opponent, he doesn't mind continuing to hold on,

It's a pity that there is no other existence that is evenly matched with them in this world.

He had to admit that initiating this war was a wrong decision. If the London government had not supported the Germans in breaking the European order from the beginning, this war would not have been fought at all.

Without the full support of France and Spain, the Bulgarians are still in the Mediterranean, how could they easily fight over?

As long as they hold the Strait of Gibraltar, the Bulgarians can only look at the ocean and sigh. As for attacking the British Isles around the Cape of Good Hope, the most radical generals in the world dare not do it, and the Royal Navy is not a show.

Then, with mutual fear between the two sides, this war will not break out, and no one wants to let a third party take advantage of it.

"Dear Prime Minister, it's time to eat!" the attendant reminded carefully

"Take it all away, I have no appetite!" Churchill said weakly

At this time, he couldn't help but envy his predecessor. Just as he slapped his ass and left, the world war broke out. All the responsibilities must be borne by their current cabinet.

Stupid, incompetent, war mad, idiot, fool...

A series of adjectives emerged from Churchill's mind, and these words would be thrown on his head before long.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the king invites you to discuss matters!" A familiar voice rang in his ear

"Earl Capas, why did the king ask me for something?" Churchill asked in surprise

Since George V, the British royal family has lived a life of rubber stamps, and usually hardly interferes in politics.

"Sorry, Prime Minister, it's inconvenient to disclose this question. All cabinet officials have been invited today, and several generals will also go!" Karpas said hesitantly

Churchill's face darkened. At this time, the king summoned so many people to discuss the matter. It must not be a trivial matter. It might have something to do with this war.

Normally, as the prime minister, he could not buy the king's account, but now he can't. With the continuous defeat on the battlefield, the prestige of the cabinet has fallen to the bottom.

Now if the king deposes him as prime minister and sends him to court, it is estimated that the vast majority of British people will applaud. It can be said that he is now the worst Prime Minister in British history.

...

"It's all here, so I won't talk nonsense. Everyone knows the situation outside. At this time, everyone can make a decision!" Edward VIII said helplessly

If possible, he would not be willing to come out and be this villain, but it is a pity that the culprit must be resisted, and the best choice is this cabinet.

Only by ending the war as soon as possible and restoring peace is in the interests of the royal family, and politicians will not be so naive if they die to the end.

In fact, the Holy Alliance has been very restrained, at least not even bombing his palace. Of course, the reasons behind this are unknown.

The superficial reason is indeed very lofty. The pilot refuses to be a regicide. This argument holds water in continental Europe.

Killing the king is a big taboo in Europe, even if it is just manslaughter, it will not be a good life. In order not to be worn by their own king, it is normal for them to make this decision.

Everyone in the cabinet's face sank, and it was time to take the blame. The person responsible for this war cannot be a consortium, even if they are also one of the black hands.

It is even more impossible to be the king. Bulgaria will not accept this statement, and all monarchy countries will not agree.

The military can't do it either, they still have robbery in their hands, and now they can't afford to offend them. At most, they can push a few scapegoats to go to court with them.

"Your Majesty, once you agree to the enemy's conditions, the foundation of the British Empire will be over!" Churchill said with a gloomy face

"Prime Minister, if you don't agree to the enemy's conditions, is the foundation of the British Empire still there?" A nobleman sneered

"Duke of Lancaster, we still have the Royal Navy, as long as the navy's foundation in the British Empire is there!" Churchill roared

"The Royal Navy is indeed still there, but if the war continues, the British Isles will be gone!" The Duke of Lancet said with a sneer

The foundation of the United Kingdom is in the British Isles, and this cannot be changed. Without the British Isles, the so-called overseas foundation is a joke.

For example, in the three North American countries, the number of English descendants here is less than 10%. Can this be the heir of the British?

Another example is the Dominion of Canada, the number of English immigrants is only two layers, followed by French immigrants, the number of both sides is very close.

This is the biggest problem. Let the British people desperately resist, and hand over the foundation of the British Empire to others for enjoyment. It is estimated that any British people will have opinions.

Why would you want to work for someone else?

Moving the capital to North America has become a fallacy from the very beginning, unless the British Isles can be moved there together.

Edward VIII waved his hand and said, "Okay, now it's all over, there's no need for everyone to quarrel.

General Montgomery, I want to know whether we can hold the British Isles militarily. I want to hear the truth! "

"Your Majesty the King, unfortunately, I can't give an answer, but now the most important issue is not military, but strategic materials!" Montgomery said with a frown

This is a very clever art of speaking. He didn't directly say whether he could hold the British Isles, but directly brought the topic to strategic materials, and everyone turned their attention to the cabinet.

"Sorry, we can't guarantee the supply of strategic materials. With the loss of Ireland, we can't even guarantee the food supply!" The Secretary of the Interior said with a wry smile

Originally, the potato production of the island of Ireland was not worth mentioning to the British Empire with its vast colonies, but at this time, it has become the last straw that crushed them.

At its peak, the population of Ireland once exceeded 8 million, and they were all fed by small potatoes. Now there are only more than 3 million people left, and there are naturally plenty of potatoes in good years.

Coupled with the advancement of agricultural technology and the government's policy preference after the outbreak of the war, the production of potatoes on the island of Ireland continued to grow, and it has become one of the most important sources of food for the British people.

The meeting has been going on until now, and there is nothing to say. The food problem cannot be solved. It is estimated that the British people will overthrow them without waiting for the enemy to come.

Churchill's murderous gaze was ignored by everyone. The proposal to move the capital to North America was only supported by civil servants and financial capitalists. The king and the noble army were staunch opponents.

Interests determine positions.

High-level officials don't care, even if they leave the British Isles, they are still civil servants of the Commonwealth.

Capital has no borders. For capitalists, they are still capitalists in another country. If they win, they will make money. If they lose, they will pat their ass and leave. This is what they did in history.

But for kings and nobles, this is very fatal. A large number of industries are in the local area, and they cannot move at all. Once they leave the British Isles, they are bereaved dogs.

There is nothing the army can do. There are too many of them, and it is impossible to move there. If the families of the soldiers are abandoned, they are ready to be blacked out on the battlefield!

"Whether to surrender or not, let's start voting. Those who oppose surrender, please raise your hands!" Edward VIII said decisively.

Churchill hesitated for a moment, raised his hand halfway, and put it down again. There is no value in objecting at this time, if he raises his hand now, he will become a spy of the Holy Alliance after a while.

Political struggles are no joke. As a prime minister at this point, if he does not come forward to take responsibility, then his value will not exist.

"Unanimously passed, the cabinet will submit it to Congress tomorrow for a vote!" Edward VIII said with a sneer

Since the London attack, the British government has been working underground, and the palace is one of the few ground-level office buildings.

The current palace looks like a big factory. Several aircraft factories have been moved in, and Edward VIII has made room for them.

Naturally, the Congress has also moved here, otherwise the air-raid shelter below would not have such a large space. After all, the war has only broken out for a year, and the British have not had time to hollow out London.

...

On March 12, 1941, the British Parliament passed the cabinet's surrender proposal with the highest efficiency. At 7:40 that night, Edward VIII ordered the British army to stop resisting and surrender to the Holy Alliance.

The European war in the World War ended. On March 13, the Bulgarian government announced that it would provide humanitarian aid to the British. One million tons of relief food would be shipped from Constantinople the next day.

Well, this is just information released to the public. In fact, this is also one of the conditions for the British to surrender. If they can't eat enough, why would the British surrender?

On March 14, the Allied Forces of the Holy Alliance entered London and began to implement short-term military control over the two islands of England. The island of Ireland has already established an independent country, so naturally there is no need for the Holy Alliance to worry about it.

Now that both Britain and Germany have surrendered, the issue of pursuing war criminals has been put on the agenda again.

According to the usual practice, after the establishment of the International Tribunal, the governments of various countries can prosecute war criminals according to the actual situation, and then the International Tribunal will conduct public trials.

Of course, since it is an international court, it naturally needs to collect evidence, and this trial cannot be started in a short time.
