Chapter 825

Windsor Castle, located in Windsor Maidenhead, Berkshire, southeast England, is the family castle of the Royal Windsor Dynasty.

However, from today on, these have become history, Windsor Castle will become the property of the Grand Duchess of Luxemburg.

Of course, it was claimed that it was the transfer of assets within the royal family. Li Zitao bought the castle at a "high price".

All arms previously delivered, including CGT and its cruise ships, were transferred to the Windsor royal family.

With the exception of Princess Adelaide, which was handed over to L.C.A (Lee C. Astor shipyard), the rest, together with the Queen Mary, was included.

It seems a bit of a loser to exchange tens of millions of assets and weapons for an ancient castle, but Li Zitao likes this castle.

The family castle of the British royal family is now his private property. It's nice to think about it.

Money?

What is money? It's for spending!

Besides, he is not without harvest. For example, the royal family's shares in Royal Dutch Shell will be transferred to him at a premium.

This is a private investment by Li Zitao and has nothing to do with a series of strategic cooperation agreements between Mobil and shell.

The board of directors of shell has always been on guard against him. He does not want to see Li Zitao intervene in shell's affairs in his own name or even be listed on the board of directors.

But in the end, he still got what he wanted, which was more perfect than his plan.

With 7.36% of the shares, Li Zitao became the largest individual shareholder of shell, not to mention the directors of shell, not to mention himself.

To this end, I would also like to thank his Majesty George VI, for the Windsor royal family seems to have a lot of information, "would you like to find a chance to cut some more fat oil down to wash the pot?"

It was the unbearable humiliation of his dignity that made George VI decide to transfer the family castle to the Duke of Luxemburg.

He was the king of the British Empire and the commander-in-chief of the most powerful empire in Europe.

Let alone let him escape abroad to form a government in exile.

Maybe people from other countries and royal families can bear it, but he can't. He is different from other royal nobles and Britain is also different from other countries.

It was for this reason that George VI changed his mind and supported Churchill. He put down his face and called Li Zitao to get his help.

Of course, the effect is remarkable.

With the planes and cruise ships sent by Li Zitao, the situation in Britain was immediately stabilized, and both George VI and Churchill were confident of the great retreat.

We should know that six 5-ton cruise ships can become aircraft carriers immediately after modification, and it is the best platform for carrying lightning.

Before that, however, they must first find enough pilots to bring the 300000 troops across the border back to British territory.

…………

Dunkirk.

The beach is full of frustrated soldiers, photographing long dragons along the extended coastline.

The breakwater is full of soldiers waiting to evacuate, but their eyes no longer twinkle with hope.

The sky is the enemy's interceptors, from time to time there will be bombers appear above, shells and machine guns swept by.

When they show up, all the British and French forces can do is lie down on their heads and pray.

In the open sand, any escape or escape is futile, even attract the attention of the enemy, let the other party give birth to a cat and mouse mentality, ravaging your body and mind.

With fewer and fewer battleships coming from the other side of the Strait, medical ships could not get close to the beach, and the breakwater was the only way out.

The enemy knew that too, so whenever there were bombers, they would attack the breakwater first.

The soldiers were the best targets for human flesh. Shells and machine guns strafed past, leaving countless bodies and muddy treads stained with blood.

Then, the soldiers in the back continued to step on the breakwater and looked at their hometown across the channel with their eyes full of despair.

"Enemy aircraft, enemy planes are coming." As soon as it was light, the watchman's shrill cry came from the front.

The soldiers lay down on the ground with their helmets covered, and some people tried to escape and hide in a hurry, but in their view, it was totally futile.

Dada

The sound of machine gun fire sounded, and all the people's bodies trembled. Although they knew that there was no way to escape, they could not be calm in the face of death.

It's just puzzling that this time they didn't feel the shivering of the board and the wailing of pain coming from their sides.

Instead, there was some kind of 'rattling' engine, a broken trip, and a loud cheering from the beach.

"It's the RAF, it's our plane, ha ha, he killed that son of a bitch..." Exclaimed the observer, waving his fist excitedly.Then, from the skyline, more planes appeared in sight.

Streamline fuselage, handsome shape, flying speed is very fast, like a swift "lightning" from above.

Some D-25 bombers dropped their bombs in a hurry and tried to escape. The convoy interceptors did not care about them.

But soon they were shot down one by one, hovering and falling over the sea, with louder cheers below.

When six cruise ships appeared in line of sight under the escort of more fighters, many soldiers were excited with tears in their eyes, and they were finally able to go home.

With the help of many civilian ships, the soldiers were successively sent to the cruise ships not far away.

The dry blankets, the hot food, and the warm smiles of the waiters make it seem like paradise to them.

More than 800 civilian ships spontaneously appeared, which made the soldiers feel the care and warmth from their hometown.

But more people are full of guilt and humiliation. They are a group of losers.

When the ship returned to the British mainland and boarded the scheduled train, the excitement and joy of the soldiers disappeared.

When the train pulled into the platform, they spontaneously buried their heads in their arms and did not dare to look out.

Keng, Keng, Keng

Something was knocking on the glass and suddenly looked up. The soldier said in an angry voice, "what do you want to do?"

But the two bottles of beer that came in from the top of the window and the caring smile from the window made him stand on the spot. "This is for you. Welcome home, young man."

Tears whirled around in my eyes, holding on to the two bottles of beer in front of me. The previously quiet carriage came back to life.

On both sides of the car were beer, food and cheers from strangers, shouting as if it all came from victory.

And the quiet atmosphere in the carriage seems to have come back to life. Some unseen things are taking root in the soldiers' hearts and gradually awakening.
