Rasputin of the East

＜ Episode 246 >

Leeds, Great Britain.

In early 1942, Russian troops had reached Nottingham, famous for the Robin Hood legend.

Of course, it didn’t matter if there was Robin Hood or Wilhelm Tell in Nottingham, what really mattered was that Nottingham was exactly 100 kilometers from Leeds, which the British government made provisional capital.

The Russian Empire, which announced the death of British Prime Minister Oswald Moseley, had again recommended the British surrender, but that was not important to them now.

Prince George stared silently at the cabinet.

Moseley Those who had come this far with only one leadership, and after Moseley’s death, the Cabinet was also facing its limits.

There are a lot of empty seats It’s obvious if you don’t see it He ran away to live alone.

There’s no way they don’t know the story of the purge that’s taking place in Germany.

maybe it will be the same The fear of becoming a beehive and being left unattended in the middle of the square was too real.

‘How is your brother?’

The Russian government revealed that they did not know about the whereabouts of Edward VIII.

Fighting is still ongoing in various parts of London, and there are still British troops who resist.

However, there were rumors spreading that the Russian government was issuing a ban on the aftermath of the accidental murder of Edward VIII by the Russian army.

Of course, there was no evidence…. When did rumors spread with thorough grounds?

“I have declared that the Russian Empire will not accept any terms of negotiations other than unconditional surrender.”

It was the main content of the Stockholm Declaration announced after the Stockholm Conference.

Mostly, there was a lot of content about the United Nations, the United Nations, to be established after the war, but there were also several parts about war.

“There was a riot in Ireland. The local command line lacks both troops and ammunition, the Irish say they are armed…”

“There has also been a massive armed riot in India.”

Who can deny that the empire is over.

“…I surrender.”

“majesty!”

“If we keep fighting, what the Russians will ask of us will only get bigger, and…there are Americans too.”

Signs of an American landing continue to show. If the U.S. even landed, it would be really over.

“Let’s surrender while we still have the chance.”

“……”

They did not object to Prince George’s remarks with a gun.

He did not surrender unconditionally to Napoleon.

But now I had to understand.

The era of the British Empire is over.

***

– I send this message to all the families of our people who have endured this difficult time, one of the most important times in our history. As if I could go into your house and speak to you directly, I am speaking these words with all my heart to each of you.

-Most of us are now embroiled in the second war of our lives. We have fought in the war in which our allies have been engulfed in the war with good faith, but the situation has clearly continued to deteriorate and now that all our allies are lost, the damage can no longer be tolerated.

-Continued fighting will result in only useless killing and destruction of human life.

-After today, the suffering that the British Empire must suffer will never be less. But it would be better than the suffering of the people of the British Empire if the war continued, the weeping of wives who lost their husbands, the tears of blood of parents who lost their children, and the tears of children who lost their parents. My and the Provisional Cabinet have come to the conclusion that in the name of maintaining world order, we can no longer demand your dedication and sacrifice from the people.

– As there is an administrative vacancy due to the disappearance of His Majesty the King and the death of the Prime Minister, I, Elbert Frederick Arthur George, Duke of York, are all the soldiers of the British Empire who are currently struggling as both the Provisional Parliament and the Cabinet of Leeds have passed the resolution. orders to cease fighting and disarm. At the same time, I declare the official surrender of the Russian Empire and the United States of America. This is because we hope that world peace and the suffering of the people will not last any longer.

– May God bless all of us.

February 14, 1942, 7pm GMT.

Moscow. Russia.

“Britain has surrendered!”

“Long live the Russian Empire!”

“Long live Your Majesty, you two!”

Thousands of people gathered in Red Square to hurrah, and the Russian Empire flag was waving everywhere.

Victory! Who wouldn’t be trembling at that cry?

It is also a great victory over those who have tested the imperial patience of the Russian Empire for decades.

How could you not be happy?

Of course, it was the story of ordinary people who had nothing to think about to be happy.

“Now that the British have been victorious, we must open a front against Japan as agreed.”

“How long do you think General Chuikov will be ready?”

“They say they need another four weeks.”

“great.”

I nodded.

“March 14th, then let the war begin.”

“Is it March 14th?”

“okay.”

If the European front was closed on Valentine’s Day, the Japanese front should be opened on White Day in order to bring the world into balance… Yeah, that’s bullshit.

But it doesn’t look like it can be pushed down as easily as in the original history.

“Right now, the Imperial Japanese Army has put most of its ground troops in the Qing Dynasty.”

“That’s right.”

“And our navy cannot stop supplying Japanese troops by advancing into the West Sea, so we may get our hands on Manchuria, but if we want to advance to China and fight, we have to be prepared for a long-term battle.”

“I agree.”

Now the US military is wrestling with the Mariana Islands. Yes, the original history of the Battle of Saipan, the recapture of Guam, and the Battle of the Philippine Sea.

In original history, four months after the battle at Mariana, the Battle of Leyte Bay broke out, breaking the backbone of the Japanese navy. Even from Japan’s point of view, if the Philippines were to be lost, there would be a fleet, but it would come out and fight a decisive battle.

If the Japanese army is defeated there, the Chinese garrison will be destroyed as it is. Furthermore, if the U.S. invades Taiwan, the sea route is definitely blocked.

Well, the US has no choice but to invade the Philippines because of its pride, and even Taiwan for practical reasons.

why? because of the occupation.

If we want to acquire the Pacific Ocean instead of giving up Europe, as Huey Long envisioned, then of course we cannot annihilate the Japanese forces in China alone.

In other words, we must send American troops into southern China and destroy the Japanese.

‘If the current idea is that China will be divided a little bit more.’

First of all, except for remnants of the Qing Dynasty and Japan, it was recognized.

Manchuria and South Manchuria are ours.

Tibet recognizes all territories occupied so far.

French Indochina will also seize some territories, and in the territories that are being cut off, even Taiwan and Hainan, which will become independent states.

In addition to the pre-cut territory, the three powerful warlords plan to divide it into three parts. Let’s say we get support from us, the US, and France, respectively.

Well, I don’t know how long France is consolidating there. I wouldn’t have any money, but it doesn’t really matter because it’s meant to fix the division of China anyway.

Then, aside from Vietnam and the territories torn from us, it is seven divisions. Three warlords, Tibet, Qing Dynasty, Taiwan, Haenam.

If you split it up and tie it together with the logic of the camp, it is the end of the division.

There is no single China. The seven arrogant nations will bite, bite and fight amongst themselves.

In addition, Hong Kong and Macau should be returned to China as they would return Gibraltar, but there is no such thing. With the feeling of being the last mercy to the UK, Hong Kong can be permanently owned and Macau can be handed over to Spain.

“We need to tear it apart as thoroughly as China, so that no other country from the East can ever threaten the Russian Empire.”

The division of Japan is confirmed because division of rule has been confirmed. Whatever it is, the Korean Peninsula became independent in a unified state. Besides, Ryukyu will also be considered a colony and will become independent.

Of course, details were not discussed. For example, starting with where to draw the 38th parallel in the Japanese version…

“Our side will push half of Tokyo along the 139th parallel, but if the US strongly opposes it, it could end in Hokkaido, the lowest point.”

Demanding too much without the ability to land on mainland Japan? So the UK will be handed over to the US.

What we’ve done right now is… a lot… a big problem.

The other thing wasn’t the problem, it was that he killed the King of England. How big is the aftermath? First of all, the garrison is confident that it will be bombed 10 times a year.

Rather, it’s better to make a deal with the US and just eat cleanly and leave.

“And we should make a UN.”

The UN was never created for peace.

It was created to permanently fix the world order.

A world order created by ‘I’.

When the UN is established, the United States and Russia, the only permanent members, must appoint five non-permanent members each.

The candidates we will present are initially selected as Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Tibet, Korea, and Arabia. It hasn’t been officially revealed.

First, the Czech Republic and Hungary are the top allies in name and reality, and the reason for including Tibet is to solidify the separation from China. After all, Tibet was annexed by China after World War II. Will they attack the members of the UN Security Council?

And Korea just wanted to do it. Even if it’s an ugly love, it’s a Jung Eun Jung.

‘I thought I had lost all my affection for that damn town.’

I’m not going to spread it out of ignorance unless there’s a good reason, but it’s a lot better than the fact that I didn’t even join until 1991 in the original history.

After all, it is the government we will establish, and as it is a country that falls within our influence, it does not matter if we give it to any country within our sphere of influence.

Finally, Arabia. These guys… To be honest, they had a situation.

Suez’s operating costs are low, and they have taken underground resources, especially oil mining rights.

Then, no matter how much both parties did not know about it, they traded, but when they found out that it was a jackpot, the Hashim family might collapse from high blood pressure, so I needed a rice cake to pass on. That was the seat of the non-executive director.

“Isn’t the US side also selecting allies? Where in the Philippines?”

“No, the Philippines is not a candidate. According to our information, it is likely that Ethiopia will take one place.”

“The Kingdom of Ethiopia? Why are they?”

“As far as the reason, we are well… Isn’t it probably with the African expansion in mind?”

“Hmm… go ahead.”

“Yes, and a country that will become independent as a result of the Pacific War, either Taiwan or Ryukyu? Anyway, it looks like it will be an island country.”

“Island is difficult for us to touch…. A town where the US military is stationed is inevitably different from a town that isn’t stationed there, right?”

“There is frequent contact between the Scandanavian countries and the United States. Wouldn’t there be one or two seats there too?”

“Hmm… Norway or Sweden, maybe both, rather than Denmark. Can’t you be sure?”

“Yeah, and frankly speaking, does it matter whoever becomes a permanent member, except in the case of France?”

“No.”

If it is a party, it is an opportunity to raise its diplomatic status, but from the standpoint of a permanent member of the board, the ratio is a problem as long as each sphere of influence is set at 5 to 5 anyway, and it is not the problem that it is intermittent.

When elections are held, male votes, female votes, and senior citizens’ votes are counted separately.

“Did the American kids tell them that they were going to Taiwan after taking pictures of the Philippines?”

“That’s right. So we secretly wanted us to go to the Korean Peninsula rather than the Chinese side.”

“Then it’s enough if you do that, and the plan was prepared that way in the first place.”

There is no reason for us to inflict huge losses in a head-to-head confrontation with the main Japanese army.

“The declaration of war is at midnight on March 14.”
