Chapter 920 The Heart of Revenge

On the night of September 1, 1946, the governments of Ireland and Wales issued a synchronous announcement. After counting votes, in the referendum held by the two countries on the merger and formation of the United Kingdom, the effective turnout rate reached 4% and 2%, and the approval rate reached 4% and 7%, respectively. Based on the results of this referendum, the two countries initiated the statutory procedures for the merger and formation of the United Kingdom. %

In terms of population and territory, this brand new United Kingdom is not considered the orthodox successor of the old United Kingdom, but its international market share in shipbuilding, aviation, chemical industry, machinery and other fields is close to or beyond the level of the old United Kingdom in the early 30s. Its army is not large in scale, and its modernization and professionalization are the same as the old United Kingdom at its peak. As the main contributor of the United Nations peacekeeping force, its elite armed forces can be seen in all focus areas at present.

For the rest of September, the Irish and Wales governments were working hard to form the United Kingdom. Since most of the matters had been carefully arranged earlier and officials were almost on the orderly basis. Therefore, the monarchs that the two countries respected were used to the great world and the great storms were not only not as busy as the outside world imagined, but also had a leisurely rest before the coronation ceremony, and took their family to tour Ireland and Wales, enjoying the autumn scenery everywhere, until a shocking news came

On January 3, a "thunder" sounded across Europe. The German royal family member known as the "Prince of Poland" Prince Aitelfredrich, a Polish Governor, was attacked by a bomb during his trip. He was seriously injured on the spot and was immediately sent to the St. John's Hospital, the best medical conditions in the local area for first aid. The German soldiers who accompanied him failed to capture the attackers at the explosion site. The nearby garrison quickly came to reinforce, blocked the surrounding roads and conducted a sweeping search of the villages and forests, detained more than 400 Polish residents and conducted a surprise interrogation. He still failed to find the attackers, and even found a clear clue. This made the German Emperor William, who went to Warsaw to visit his brother's injury, very annoyed.

Although there is no direct evidence, the heads of German intelligence and security departments in Poland insisted that this was the work of the Polish Soviet Revolutionary Movement. Since the 30s, the Soviet Revolutionary Movement has grown wildly in Eastern Europe like spores hidden in wet and dark corners of the woods. Especially in eastern Poland and southern Ukraine, the revolutionaries established a strict organizational system with the secret support of the Soviet Union, adapting scattered guerrilla armies into Polish revolutionary forces, and carrying out beheading or kidnapping operations against the notorious German dispatched officials and Polish officials who served the Germans, and even attacked prisoners and robbed prisoners.

Prince Fredrich adopted a strategy to severely punish the Soviet revolution in German Poland, rather than to betray. In recent years, more than 3,000 Poles were executed by him, and tens of thousands of people were sentenced to labor and were disabled and died due to poor conditions. As a result, Fredrich gained the reputation of "the brutal Fredrich" from the Poles and became a member of the Soviet revolutionary organization.

Many Polish patriots were thorny in the side. They had been attacked twice before and were defeated twice. Just over a month ago, the German occupation forces seized a batch of illegal military supplies in the port of Odessa, and followed the clues to destroy the Soviet revolutionary organization's contact stronghold in the area. They shot and killed 17 revolutionaries and captured 9 people on the spot. Then a large number of related personnel were arrested. This incident had a great impact in the German Polish region, and Fredrich's attack was likely to have arisen.

On January 5, when Prince Frederick became more injured and was worried about his life, Xia Shu took a special plane to visit Warsaw. When he arrived, Frederick fell into a coma and was in a very unstable state. Not only did the German Emperor William continue to stay in Warsaw, but Prince William August, King Oscar I of Iceland and member Louise of the royal family gathered together, and even Prince Adalbert, who served as ambassador in Argentina, was on his way back.

After leaving the ward, German Emperor William gritted his teeth in front of his younger brother and sister, "These unforgivable Bolsheviks! Their harm to Aitel is not only a contempt for the German Empire, but also an invasion of the Hohenzollern family. They have to pay the heaviest price for this! If Aitel has a good life, even if he leveles the entire Poland, I will still find out those despicable murderers!"

Natsuki sighed: "It may not be about character. You must know that firm beliefs can make people become outlaws. To achieve their goals, they don't care about the price they pay or the consequences."

William stared at him for a few seconds: "I decided to mobilize the Polish garrison and local security forces to launch a full-scale strangle operation against the Bolsheviks. Joheng, although you always sympathize with these guys, you should join in for Aitel this time."

According to the military agreements of the Allied Powers, Ireland has been stationed in Eastern Europe for a long time since 1917, with the maximum number of troops exceeding 40,000. Now the scale has been greatly reduced, but there are still 16 ooo well-equipped soldiers. Their mechanization level is comparable to that of the German front-line corps and has strong mobility. Not only that, Ireland also has the most elite special forces in Europe, and their practical experience and combat performance are impeccable!

Natsuki was silent for a while: "I feel very uncomfortable when I see Aitel now, so I can fully understand your decision. However, such actions may affect the stability of Europe. We should be able to calm down and make plans for a long time."

William was angry, and he frowned, as if dissatisfied with this mixed argument. At this time, Oscar I interrupted: "Yes, on the surface, it was the Polish revolutionary party that caused trouble, but if no one behind them provided support, they would not dare to do so, and would not succeed. If this support hidden in the dark cannot be cut off, then as Johen said, Poland is likely to become a chaotic place that affects European stability. In that case, we should indeed calmly consider whether we really want to compete with these despicable Poles instead of trying to find a way to deal with the forces behind them."

The king of Iceland had a low tone and a calm tone, but in this quiet place where even the needle could be heard, his words were heard. The rebellious little William actually restrained his anger, held his hands in front of his chest, and walked to the tight window with his head down.

Xia Shu turned to look at Oscars. In terms of national strength alone, Iceland dominated by Oscar I is still the weakest country in Europe and even the world. For a while, Oscar I was used to playing soybeans. Fortunately, the barren Iceland is not just ice and snow. After more than 20 years of construction and exhibition, especially the development of rich fishery and geothermal resources, the living conditions of Icelanders have greatly improved. Their people, Reykjavik, as the largest strategic stronghold and supply base in the North Atlantic, has become a port city with a permanent population of over 10,000 and a full range of modern facilities, attracting thousands of

Europeans came for vacation and travel. In 1937, the global economic crisis in 1939, and the Eastern refugee wave in 1944, the Icelandic government implemented a special immigration policy in a timely manner, which soared the population of Iceland to more than 600,000. The Icelandic army is no longer an empty shell armed force without troops. The establishment of the standing army made Iceland qualified to be one of the countries sent to the League of Nations peacekeeping operations. Active participation in peacekeeping operations made Oscar I active on international occasions. He began to talk big on international issues like William Little. Although some remarks sometimes sound ridiculous, this change was real.

"After Japan completely stopped its war, Soviet Russia became the biggest hidden danger to the international order. 29 years ago, we should have done everything we can to eliminate it in our infancy, and even 11 years ago, we had the right reason and sufficient strength to knock it over to the ground. Now, we have to face a modern army forged by war. National mobilization will surely arouse their vigilance and respond in advance. In this way, it will be difficult for us to take the initiative, and once the war begins, we must be wary of some countries stabbing the knife in the back. What should I do? What can I do?"

Whispering these in his mouth, Little William suddenly turned around and looked at Xia Shu with a rare look of help. This look reminded Xia Shu of how many years ago, Little William, who was the commander of the Legion, also hoped that he would help him overcome his predicament. When the Allied Navy was in trouble in the Yar Sea, Little William also went to Limerick in person to persuade him to lead his troops.

Xia Shu walked straight to William and held his arms with both hands: "I am frank, Germany is now extremely powerful. It has only one enemy, and that is itself. I still remember that a long time ago, we had discussed in-depth influence of the Soviet trend. It itself is not as aggressive as we are worried about. Only when there are serious problems in the governance of the country, causing the living difficulties of the lower class people, and even the most basic living conditions cannot be guaranteed, the Soviet trend will take root and spread rapidly. In Wales more than ten years ago, hundreds of Soviet organizations appeared in a short period of time, miners went on strike, traffic was paralyzed, and the revolutionary waves were surging. We had to use a large number of troops to maintain order. But now? Everyone lives and work in peace. Even if the Soviet Russia sent a thousand political commissars to Wales, it would not cause any storm."

William Xiao looked at him with disappointment: "Can we not only not only do we severely punish the Poles, but also provide them with more comfortable and superior living conditions and make them live carefree, so as to calm the revolutionary wave here?"

Xia Shu said meaningfully: "Perhaps, treating fairly is enough!"
