Chapter 422: Hope for Revival

"Let's go, Governor Bronte, it's time to get out of here." At the airport in the city of Mutier, the adjutant of Blante reminded contemptuously.

Because of the defeat of the invasion of the Italian army, and the almost counterattack into Italian territory, Belante can be said to be the only light of the French army in the great defeat.

The resounding victory against Italy allowed Béronte himself to gain a great deal of prestige, and at the same time to restore face to the Italians for the French Army, which had been disgraced in front of the Germans.

And the French Marshal Petain, who planned all this, in order to protect Bérente, the hero of France, in the last hour before the armistice, through the cabinet, appointed Bérente as the governor of Algeria on the grounds of his exploits in the war against Italy, and sent away his most proud subordinates and students.

"Unexpectedly, after we defeated the Italians, it was not Paris that we had to go back, but we had to run to the colonies in disgrace." Looking at the north, Belant sighed with emotion.

He didn't know that his teacher Petain had sent him far away to the French African colonies that the Germans could not control for a while in order to protect himself.

It can be said that Petain was very thoughtful. He left himself behind, but transferred Bérante to Africa to prevent Bérante's prestige from declining by joining Vichy France. And when Berente arrives in Algeria, he can also defend the first oil field in Africa that has just been discovered and protect France's purse.

You must know that the defeated side will inevitably pay compensation for the land no matter what. And after the war, France, which was in ruins, wanted to come up with reparations that the Germans were satisfied with.

But now it's different, during the day today, the Algerian side has completed the test, and the oil there is quite high quality and huge reserves!

As long as the oil fields there are exploited and the oil is directly exchanged for compensation, whether it is Germany or France, they will be very happy.

To go to Algeria, to lead the army there, to hold the money bag of France, this is the responsibility that Petain handed over to Belante!

"I'll be back!"

Belant turned and strode into the plane door.

Next, he will take over all that Petain has entrusted to him, and all the money that Marshal Petain can muster.

What he holds in his hand will be the future of France!

........

"In the hands of the Governor of Bérente is our last strength, the seed of the revival of France. When our homeland was occupied by the Germans, when we had to choose to cooperate with the Germans. The power of the Governor of Birente will allow us to have the capital to negotiate with the Germans. ”

It was the famous French general of the previous generation, Wei Gang, who spoke.

He witnessed the defeat of France and the rise of the Third Reich. Now, he will accompany Petain to stay in France and witness the future together.

Weygand felt that he was too weak to take on the task of leading France's future revival. However, he doesn't mind witnessing the growth of a new generation of French star Belante.

"Admiral Darlang's fleet is already scattered in the southern ports and in the North African colonies." Petain clearly had full trust in his pupil Bérente, and in the Admiral Darlan.

He commanded 80 well-trained modern warships and well-trained naval units, and Admiral Darlan has been committed to the construction of the French Navy for many years, and has made indelible achievements in all aspects such as regulations, technical equipment, treatment of officers and soldiers, and commander training. Our navy, under his ten years of special management, has been more effective than at any time since the French Revolution. “

Darlan ahead of time, Petain did not hesitate to praise: "It can be said that, in a way, Darlan is our French Tirpitz." It is not by chance that in our Navy, every battleship, every sailor is absolutely loyal to him! ”

Tirpitz, is the famous father of the German Navy. Today, when the German High Seas Fleet defeated the British Home Fleet and became famous, Petain put Darlan on the same level as Tirbitz, which shows how much he trusted him.

"Darlan's navy, Berente's army," Wei Gang clenched his fists and slammed his fists: "With the Algerian oil fields, they can keep fighting." In this way, we will still have enough power, a force that everyone will have to pay attention to! ”

Needless to say, Darlang's navy is one of the top five maritime forces in the world, and no one dares to underestimate it. And Belant, who led the three divisions to the south, had already organized an emergency movement with the help of Darlang.

Under the transportation of a large French fleet, the officers and men of these three divisions, who had just followed Belante to defeat Italy, had high morale and were loyal to Berente, would become the armed team of Belante as governor of Algeria, and went to Algeria, which was the closest to the southern mainland and had just discovered a large number of oil fields, among the many African colonies of France.

There, Berente will receive 110,000 colonial garrisons, including local security forces, indigenous troops. That is, Beronte will have 150,000 army forces in action.

Because of his proximity to the mainland of southern France, Pétain could even privately send a large number of obsolete equipment to Bérente.

With this batch of equipment, it is not difficult for Belant to recruit another 300,000 indigenous troops in Algeria.

And this final army of 450,000 people, far away from the emperor of the mountain, can completely wait and see from across the strait, choose the appropriate reality, as the capital of negotiations between France and international countries, and join the future disputes.

They are the hope of the revival of France!

.........

At noon on June 7.

A French general named Charles de Gaulle, who had not been able to do so before, saw off his British allies at the airport, General Spears.

Because in the Ruhr War, Colonel de Gaulle, who was still a colonel at the time, did not listen to the dissuasion of Siddle and acted arbitrarily, resulting in the defeat of the Franco-Belgian coalition in the first battle until the defeat.

Therefore, after he returned to China, he has not been reused.

At this time, when de Gaulle shook hands with his British friend and said goodbye, and the plane was about to take off slowly, he suddenly jumped on the ramp of the plane, got into the cabin of the plane, and slammed the door shut.

Eventually, the plane took to the skies and took off. The people at the airport were surprised, but there was nothing they could do.

Unlike Berente, who went to the French colonies, General de Gaulle, who had been unsuccessful at home, was ready to change his mind and complete his idea of reviving France.

He decided to flee France, not just from his homeland!

He wants to flee abroad completely, reorganize his forces, and establish a force that belongs to him de Gaulle!
