Robert Niveller came to Roque for a four-engine bomber, the Nyasaland military-industrial complex had already licensed the "Gale" fighter to the French, and the four-engine bomber was not yet available.

After the New Year, the bombers of the British Expeditionary Force continued to bomb military targets in Belgium and Germany, with great results, much to the envy of Robert Niveller.

Nivelle also wanted bombers, but a bomber in southern Africa sold for twenty-five thousand pounds, and the French government simply couldn't afford it now, so Nivelle also wanted the technology and license for a four-engine bomber.

At the entrance to the headquarters of Aman, when Roque greeted Robert Niveller, soldiers with military dogs patrolled the vicinity.

Everything related to military dogs has been very sensitive lately, and Robert Niveller hasn't noticed it yet, and Mangin can't help but sour: "The British Expeditionary Force has been very majestic recently—"

Roque, hehe, glanced at Sidney Milner beside him.

"The British Expeditionary Force has defeated the German forces in Belgium and recovered most of Belgium, and we have the right to enjoy the glory of the victors." Milner looked very arrogant with his head up, which was British arrogance.

"Belgium is our ally, should you treat them with some respect?" It's amazing that Manjing actually uses the word "respect".

"We are the victors and have the right to enjoy the glory of the victors." Milner repeated what he had just said, Mantin's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and the Germans still occupied part of the French land.

"It's just a dog, but it's more important than a person?" Manjing has a violent personality and is made angry by Milner's two words.

"We are the victors—" Milner wanted to repeat again, but after thinking about it, he changed his words: "-It seems that someone is more respectful, his subordinates must not think so, someone is right, in our British Expeditionary Force, even a dog will not die casually, and we will not force soldiers to die with machine guns-God, our guns are never aimed at our own people-"

"The Belgians who were shot at the court-martials were not their own people?" Manjing was in a hurry, and Milner's words were like a slap in the face, all of which were pumped on Manjing's conscience.

"During the war, all attacks on the expeditionary force were hostile." Milner is not in a hurry, the interpretation of this provision, and the definition of the attack, are here with the expeditionary force, and the expeditionary force can deal with it as it wants.

Don't accept it?

It doesn't matter, no one cares if you accept it or not, you are a PLA who is not a line from the masses when you are a British expeditionary force, people's ancestors are pirates, don't use your moral standards to demand the descendants of pirates.

Mangin was still trying to speak, but was stopped by Nivelle with a stern look.

Roque didn't speak, and also gave Milner a committing look, and Milner's bones suddenly lightened by three points.

Before the outbreak of the World War, Roque and Milner were still friends, but now Roque and Milner are no longer on the same level, and Roque's prestige in the expeditionary force is increasing day by day.

Entering the headquarters, Niveller's aim was to try to unite the British Expeditionary Force to launch an attack on the German army.

The French were shocked by the attacking power shown by the British Expeditionary Force after Roque took office, when did this "poor little army" already have such a strong fighting force?

Everyone knows that Britain's traditional superior power is the navy, and now the British army is also performing so well under the command of Roque, I am afraid that it is not the rhythm of the British Empire to sweep through Europe, if that is the terrible case, France will lose its competitiveness in Europe and internationally.

Coupled with the upheaval of the Russian Empire, which is now fraught with uncertainty, the newly formed Provisional Government has promised to continue the war, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Russian Empire has lost its competitiveness and is unable to give France the same great help as it did during the Battle of Verdun last year.

"I am going to launch an attack on the Germans at Shermandaidam, this attack will be over in 24 hours, or 48 hours, before the Germans can react, we will achieve the purpose of the campaign, I have prepared 27 divisions for this attack, and they will definitely be able to complete the task." Robert Niveller was confident.

Roque was full of sadness, the world war has been going on so far, and there are still people who think that a battle can end in 24 hours, or 48 hours, I really don't know whether it is arrogant or naïve.

However, this arrogant and naïve man is the commander-in-chief of the French army, which makes Roque in a dilemma.

Sherman Dydam means "Lady's Path", and legend has it that there is a path woven with ropes that was very popular with the daughters of King Louis XV of France.

"What is the purpose of this campaign?" Roque carefully considered Niveler's plan and found it difficult to implement.

"Defeat the Germans in front of us, break through the German lines, and drive the Germans out of French territory—" Nivelle was in high spirits, but with so many objectives, it was clear that it would not be possible to achieve them in two days.

"I promise that the Sherman Dydam plan will not turn into another Somme or Verdun, and if a breakthrough cannot be achieved within two days, I will order the troops to stop the offensive." Nivelle knew the situation in France, and if there was another battle of Verdun or the Battle of the Somme, then Nivelle would have to be dismissed.

France could no longer afford losses of the magnitude of the Battle of Verdun.

"So what do you need our British Expeditionary Force for?" Roque had to find out more about the situation, and then decide which step the British Expeditionary Force would take.

"I need the British Expeditionary Force to launch an attack on the Germans at Reims, to contain the German forces, and to cooperate with our offensive." Niveller's abacus played well, the offensive he directed was still dominated by the French army, and the British expeditionary force was in an auxiliary position, in other words, all the achievements were French, and there were qualified dumping targets without achievements.

"How many troops do you need me to dispatch?" Roque wants to know Niveller's bottom line.

"The Second and Third Armies were enough to deter the Germans." Neville played Roque like a fool, if according to Neville, the dominant French army had only 27 divisions, but the British Expeditionary Force, which was in an auxiliary position, had to send 33 divisions, who was the auxiliary?

"No way, I can't draw so many troops, and in another month, the British Expeditionary Force will also launch an offensive inside Belgium, and I want to keep enough reserves for the attack." Roque directly refused, if a few divisions of the colonial servant army were dispatched, then Roque might still give Nivelle a face, and directly dispatch the two armies without even thinking about it.

"Sir, why don't you give Prime Minister Winston a call—" Nivelle feared.

Call and call, but certainly not in front of Niveler, and after sending Nivelle and a certain cargo away, Roque dials Winston's phone.

Winston's voice on the phone was a little distorted, but Roark could still hear it was Winston himself: "Locke, if you can, cooperate with the French appropriately, I know you want to reduce the casualties of the British expeditionary force as much as possible, but what we need most now is victory." ”

"If we need to win, then we should be more cautious, you don't know what kind of attack plan the French have developed, it's just child's play, there is almost no chance of success." Roque's attitude remained resolute.

"I know, I know Robert's plan, it's really hard to succeed, but if there is a possibility of success, isn't it, then it's worth trying, time is of the essence to us, we have to give the Russians enough confidence so that the Russians can persevere." Winston thinks about significantly more.

After the formation of the Russian Provisional Government, there was a great deal of controversy over whether or not to continue the war.

Some people believe that Russia should persist in fighting, the world war has been going on so far, the Russian Empire has suffered more than 5 million casualties, the heaviest casualties of all the participating countries, if it withdraws from the war now, then Russia will have nothing to gain, and maybe even the Black Sea outlet will be forced to surrender.

The arguments against the continuation of the war were also very strong, the world war was already in its fourth year, and everyone was tired of the war, so the Russians overthrew the Tsar.

Although continuing to fight is the most beneficial choice for Russia, the front-line officers and soldiers who are already tired of the war will not think so thoroughly, they will not care about the Black Sea estuary, only whether they can go home, for those "gray cattle" on the front line, they don't even want their own tsar father, what else can not be given up.

Winston's meaning was to give hope to the Russians with a brilliant victory as soon as possible and continue to involve the German forces on the Eastern Front.

If the Russians, seeing no hope, choose to withdraw from the war, then this would be a great disaster for the Anglo-French forces on the Western Front.

"Well, I'll cooperate with the French in Reims-" Roque conceded, even the British Prime Minister didn't care whether the British were alive or dead, so Roque wouldn't put a hot face on his ass.

Isn't it just to set up a machine gun and force the soldiers to attack, Roque will too, and he is very good at it.

Satisfied with Roque's promise, Nivelle was finally able to concentrate all his energies on how to defeat the Germans.

On 25 February, a joint meeting of the Anglo-French forces was held at the headquarters in Nivelle.

Unlike Roque's temporary headquarters, Nivelle's headquarters is a luxurious castle, this castle once belonged to Marie Antoinette, the queen of King Louis XVI of France, referring to the life of Louis XVI, you can imagine how luxurious this castle is, Nivelle even moved his own wine cellar into the castle, the current French high-level soldiers, all are Nivelle's descendants, Foch was kicked to Switzerland by Nivelle, Petain and de Castellao These generals are not cared for, Mangin is the red man in front of Nivelle.

On the night of Roque's arrival at Nivele's headquarters, Nivelle hosted a welcome banquet for Roque.

Roque didn't feel much honored, how to say that, seeing him rise up a tall building, seeing him feast guests, seeing his building collapse.
