Chapter 40: A New Member (Revision)
"Well, my dear Sir Douglas, do you see the impact of the new equipment, so that according to my analysis, the way of war will change as a result!"
After watching the military exercises, I used the facts to teach Douglas a lesson. Haig's Xia Fei tried not to show a smug look, but the smug words couldn't help but come out of his own.
As the heads of several major military blocs of the Entente were in a car, they were General Chauffeur of France, Douglas of the British Expeditionary Force. Sir Haig, Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolayevich of Russia.
As for the military leaders of several other countries, because of their military and national strength, they were not overshadowed by Xia Fei and Douglas. Haig took a fancy to them, and they were all riding in other vehicles.
Nikolai of Russia. Grand Duke Nikolayevich was once the commander of the Russian army, also known as Little Nikolai, and was the uncle of the last Russian Tsar, Nicholas II. He did not make too many mistakes in the leadership of the army, and after an unsuccessful palace coup, he was kicked out and demoted to commander of the Caucasian Front.
For him, his visit to France to participate in the Entente strategic seminar was nothing more than an opportunity for him to relax.
Therefore, Xia Fei and Douglas. The debate between Haig did not arouse much interest in him, and he was pot-bellied, and it didn't take long for him to snort after getting into the car.
(The first release of this book) does not laugh at group A: 35761481
The younger Xia Fei and Douglas. Haig did not stop debating because of him, although in the face of the facts, Douglas . . . Haig had to admit that this style of offensive operations would change the pattern of warfare, and as the commander of the British Expeditionary Force, he naturally would not even fail to see this.
In particular, the power of the 12.7 mm heavy machine guns sprayed on those infantry fighting vehicles, as well as the power of those flamethrowers, was obvious. If the French and British armies were equipped with a large number of such weapons in future offensive operations, then the defeat of the German army seemed to be a foregone conclusion.
The offensive power of the combination of several weapons completely convinced Douglas. Haig, if it weren't for the respect of Xia Fei, he had the intention to pull out a heroic and warlike Scottish Highland Regiment to conduct a combat exercise with Xia Fei's Hunter Regiment. This military exercise completely dispelled his thoughts, and he was very happy.
Douglas. Haig is not a good man to admit defeat, so the debate over weapons and morale, equipment and determination did not end with this exercise.
"General, this exercise is indeed shocking, I have to admit that your hunter regiment, with the assistance of these preparations, is more capable of attacking than our ordinary army, but at the same time, we have to admit that the morale and determination of the perfectly trained hunter regiment is also awe-inspiring!"
Xia Fei of course heard Douglas. The meaning of Haig's words, but his purpose had been fully achieved, not only in Douglas. Haig has served his purpose here, and with military delegations of various countries.
For Douglas. Haig's stubbornness, Xia Fei showed considerable tolerance and generosity.
"My dear Sir Sir, these are not matters to be argued about. I think they are like the palm and back of a hand, both of which are indispensable. How, let's end this argument, shall we? I think it's time for us to meet that Mike together. Mr. Tang of Prince Company, old friend of Douglas, please believe me, he will bring you more surprises! ”
In the face of Xia Fei's revelation of a certain mysterious introduction, Douglas. Haig's heart was full of suspicion, but he closed his mouth in amusement, as if he was already imagining the scene of meeting the "businessman who was a Chinese soldier".
"Welcome to distinguished guests, on behalf of Mike. Prince & Co. ......"
Tang Yunyang, Li Shizeng, Charles. Kim plus a flowing and lively Nancy dressed in Parisian fashion. In the test area, Green greeted the military delegations of various countries led by Xia Fei who had come to watch the exercise.
At the behest of Tang Yunyang, Nancy. Green planned a rich lunch, as well as a pre-lunch for Mike. A small demonstration of the various new equipment of the Prince Company and the Merlin Military Company was held.
Although this visit was planned in advance, Xia Fei, as the head of the delegation, was not directly invited, but wanted to meet Mike. Douglas of the Prince Corporation. Haig made the offer with a whimsical approach. In fact, all this preparation was done for him alone.
Xia Fei, who was satisfied, remained silent on the surface, pretending to be a little embarrassed, and even made a simple resignation on the grounds of secrecy.
"Your Excellency, I can understand Mike. The role of the Prince Company in the equipment of the French army, but today it is all the military leaders of the Entente, I believe they are all gentlemen, Your Excellency the General should not shirk again! ”
Obviously, the exercise just now shocked the delegates of the participating countries. They dare not imagine that if the French army, which is already extremely powerful, is re-armed with equipment, there is any other country in the world that can compete with it. For the sake of national security, if Xia Fei didn't take them on a tour, I'm afraid they would try to communicate with Mike themselves. Prince Company secretly contacted.
Of course, Xia Fei and Tang Yunyang had discussed it through some secret channels in advance, for example, the Benlei attack plane was not displayed in front of the members of the military delegations of other countries. In the case of Xia Fei, Mike. Although Prince was at stake in his purse, France's fundamental interests should not be overly harmed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, these are some new weapons and various equipment that we have designed for the purpose of France's resistance to the evil war, and although we have only provided them to the French army for the time being, this does not prevent you from contacting the military representatives about the purchase after the visit......
In order to give Xia Fei, Douglas. The time when Haig and Tang Yunyang talked, Li Shizeng, as the general manager, and the beautiful Nancy. Green caught the attention of the others with their novel introductions.
"Let me introduce you to you, this is the commander of the British Expeditionary Force, Douglas. Sir Haig...... This is Mike. Mr. Tang Yunyang, President of Prince Company, I hope you can have a pleasant conversation, I am going to issue the duties of the head of my military delegation! ”
In order not to be overly eye-catching, after the introduction, Xia Fei left in a hurry, leaving two people who were constantly looking at and observing each other.
"He's a soldier, and he's not an ordinary soldier!"
Tang Yunyang followed Douglas. Haig looked at him with a little appreciation, smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Shall we, Dear Sir Sir, have a talk? I think after talking about it, you'll find out that I'm a friend worth making! ”
