"Bastard! It's disgusting and arrogant. The Germans actually put forward such a condition. Do they think that we have lost the war? Their army has already occupied the whole of Britain, so we can only let them kill us?" Aspen Prime Minister Quess roared angrily.

When the conditions put forward by Germany were sent to Prime Minister Asquith, he completely extinguished his desire for peace. In his view, the German side has no sincerity at all. It is completely to slaughter Britain as a defeated country. If they accepted the conditions offered by the Germans, the British Empire would really die without a place to die. In the future, the British Empire will not only no longer be the hegemon of the world, but it will not even be considered a powerful country. It will be completely reduced to a second- and third-rate country. How could Prime Minister Asquith agree to such a condition?

"Your Excellency, the conditions put forward by the Germans are indeed very harsh. It is impossible for us to accept such conditions. Therefore, the Germans really have no idea of ​​peace talks with them. They are very confident in their military power , intends to directly defeat us with powerful military force." Sir Edward Gray also had a dejected expression on his face. He could vaguely feel that the Germans closed the door to the peace talks, probably because they wanted to make Britain pay a higher price. Once Britain loses the war, they are completely finished.

Prime Minister Asquith nodded: "From now on, no one is allowed to talk about peace talks with the Germans. We have no choice but to continue the war. Unless we can Defeat the Germans, or at least be able to withstand the German attack. Otherwise, the British Empire will have no future."

"Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." All the British cabinet ministers said. Through this contact with Germany, they also know that it is impossible to keep the British Empire through peace talks. In this case, there is only the last way left, and that is war.

"Your Excellency Churchill, the Royal Navy must be prepared for a decisive battle with the Germans. If the Royal Navy can win the decisive battle, the crisis of the British Empire can be lifted. If the Royal Navy cannot win, then our mainland will have to Ready to fight the German landings," Prime Minister Asquith said.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Prime Minister." Churchill nodded. He knew that the task of the Royal Navy was very heavy now, and whether they could withstand the German attack was directly related to the life and death of the British Empire. He also promised that he would do his best to win this war. However, he didn't dare to guarantee whether he could win. After all, the opponent this time is really too strong.

"Your Excellency, Minister of War, next, the army must be fully mobilized. Not only must the strength of the expeditionary force be maximized, but at the same time, the homeland must also have enough troops to defend. If the navy is not able to withstand the German attack, then everything It depends on the army." Prime Minister Asquith said solemnly.

He knew that once the flames of war reached the mainland of Britain, it would bring disaster to Britain and even all the British people. However, the Germans were unwilling to engage in peace talks. This also left them with no other choice but to prepare for the battle with all their strength. If you want to keep Britain from perishing, you have to resist the German attack. Even if the war is carried out on the mainland, the Germans must be resisted, otherwise, Britain will be completely finished.

"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister. The army has already planned to mobilize the third batch. At that time, in addition to the expeditionary force sent to France will increase to one million, there will be an army of 1.5 million in the mainland. If there is enough time, we will carry out the fourth batch of mobilization. In that case, our troop strength will be further improved." Richard Haldane, Secretary of State for War, said.

"Yes!" Prime Minister Asquith nodded with satisfaction: "However, in addition to the further expansion of the army's strength, the innovation of weaponry and equipment must also hurry up. Before the German army landed on the mainland of the empire Before that, we developed equipment capable of restraining German tanks and other advanced weapons. Otherwise, our homeland may not be able to defend. German tanks shined brilliantly on the Eastern Front, and they beat Russia People are in a panic. According to the information obtained, the Germans will also deploy a large number of tank troops on the Western Front this time. We must be prepared. I hope that once the war is carried out on the mainland of the Empire, we will fight to fight The land is scorched, and the Germans must be defeated!"

"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister. Regarding the tanks used by the Germans, we have already started to develop them. The arsenal has produced samples. After demonstration, they will be mass-produced. In addition, we are also developing tanks that can destroy the Germans. Tank weapons. After research, it was found that small-caliber cannons can be directly used as anti-tank guns, and have great lethality against German tanks. If the German Army dares to land on the British mainland, we can definitely let them in Blood is shed here!" Richard Haldane looked resolute.

For the British, if the navy fails, then only the army is left to defend the homeland. If the army has not been able to withstand the British attack during the home war. The demise of Great Britain, then, was inevitable. Naturally, everyone does not want the UK to go to that point. But whenever possible, they all hope that the British Empire can continue to exist.

"Very well, everyone, I believe that with the concerted efforts of everyone, the British Empire will be able to overcome this difficulty and win the final victory!" Prime Minister Asquith said.

Although, the current situation is very critical. However, fortunately, everyone has not completely lost their fighting spirit. And this gave Britain a glimmer of hope of winning. Prime Minister Asquith couldn't help feeling a little more hopeful: "Perhaps, God can bless the British Empire and win this war!"

Subsequently, Prime Minister Asquith rushed to Buckingham Palace to report the situation to King George V. Although King George V was full of worries about the future of the British Empire, he also expressed support for Prime Minister Asquith's decisive battle with them. King George V claimed that the royal family will do everything possible to support the government and the army. After all, if Britain ceased to exist, he, the king, would naturally not be able to continue to be king.
