Chapter 522: War Always Kills

Almighty Cultivation Supreme

Now, it has not yet reached the level of World War I, World War I almost failed, and finally turned the tables, World War II, it will be the same!

Churchill was determined, and he told those present that he had not yet failed, so how could he surrender at such a time?

Petain looked at Churchill with many emotions in his eyes.

Little brother, this is different from the First World War!

Petain is not Wei Gang, in the past two years, Petain has been an ambassador in Spain, and he has seen a lot clearly, for example, the combat effectiveness of the German armored forces, for example, the combat capability of the ground forces with the cooperation of aviation.

Although Petain was old, he was not confused, he had always been an innovative man, and just before the First World War, he realized how important artillery coverage was before the offensive began, and advocated equipping his troops with more suppressive artillery.

This era has changed, the Germans took the lead in the transformation of the troops, and the armored divisions of the Germans showed great combat capabilities, and the French could not stop it at all.

Petain is old, and over the years, Petain has seen a lot, and there are victories and there will be defeats.

France has no chance of winning, even if there is a little hope of victory, Petain will not say such a thing, Petain has seen it now, and now continue to resist, and surrender now, the only difference is the number of dead in France.

If it was doomed, why let the blood of the French soldiers be shed in vain?

The revival of France could not be achieved through a military victory, but was the result of the suffering of the Fatherland and its descendants, as was the case with the surrender of Germany.

At the same time, the armistice was not a punishment for defeat, but a new beginning, a necessary condition for the eternal existence of immortal France.

This is Petain's opinion.

But now, there are not many people who support Petain.

PΓ©tain was only stating his opinion, and when he had finished speaking, Churchill suddenly appeared and told him that the war had not yet reached the point of defeat!

Facing Churchill, Petain remembered himself as a young man, braving enemy bullets and crawling on the ground with the front-line soldiers, convincing the soldiers that as a commander-in-chief, he would not only let his troops die, but that he would be with them.

Perhaps, is it because you are old and have no ambition?

Eventually, Petain did not speak, stood up, turned around, and left the venue.

Petain's departure relieved the others, after all, Petain's authority was too great, if Petain insisted on surrendering, then it was really difficult for others to say, none of the people present were older than him, and even Prime Minister Reynaud was not as senior as him.

"Now, we have to redistribute our forces." Wei Gang spoke: "We are in the south of the Germans, and we have organized a defensive line to protect our homeland. ”

Just now, Wei Gang was quite shocked by Marshal Petain's speech, after all, Marshal Petain is a household name in the whole of France, although Wei Gang is only a dozen years younger than Marshal Petain, and he is also an old guy, but, after all, Wei Gang has no qualifications.

Although Wei Gang also participated in World War I, he also served as the supreme commander of France, Ferdinand? Foch's chief of staff, however, he really didn't have any heroic deeds that the French would remember.

Many times, he also admired Marshal Petain, and now Marshal Petain actually wants to surrender! Wei Gang's will in his heart has actually begun to waver, but now, he is still in the main battle faction, he was beaten by Germany, he has not woken up yet, and he must be hit on the head with a second stick before he will wake up.

Resistance is useless, surrender is the right way!

Now, the Anglo-French forces surrounded in the north have unimaginable consequences, and Wei Gang knows that if he wants to keep most of the territory in the south of France, he needs to set up a new line of defense in the south of the current front.

Wei Gang's words attracted the attention of many people, he used a baton, pointed to the map and said: "We have established a new defensive line between the Somme and the Aisne River, and laid a large number of mines to hinder the advance of the opponent's tanks. ”

Hinder the offensive of the armored forces of the Germans! On the one hand, on mines, on the other, on anti-tank guns, there is still hope for France!

"At the same time, while we set up this line of defense, we must also set up a second line of defense behind this line of defense, and guard the line of the Songmu, Oise and Aisne rivers according to the danger, and at a critical time, blow up the bridge, but also protect the security of our south."

"At the same time, we need to mobilize the army, call up the reserves, and move to a wartime system, and I believe that we will still be able to hold off the German attack and slowly turn to the counteroffensive."

Although under the command of Wei Gang, he had just suffered a defeat, but it was the main British force that was lost, and Wei Gang was not the only one who suffered defeat under the Germans anyway.

Now, Wei Gang's idea of setting up two lines of defense to block the Germans from moving south and protect half of France by using the various rivers and moats in France as fortresses was unanimously approved.

Listening to his plan, Churchill was already annoyed.

"And what about the encircled army in the north? The French should send thirty divisions to rescue them! Churchill said.

As long as the French ** team sent 30 divisions to attract the attention of Germany, then, at least, the British ** team could successfully withdraw to Dunkirk, and now, Churchill was no longer willing to tell the truth to his French colleagues, these people were too stupid.

"We now have only 71 divisions." Wei Gang said: "We can't build a defensive line. Moreover, it has been proven that we will not be able to save the troops there, and I hope God will bless them. ”

Weygang's words provoked Churchill's anger: "Are you going to abandon them? Those fighters are the most elite troops! If we abandon them, we have no future! ”

On the battlefield, when necessary, some people had to be abandoned, and now, Wei Gang's desire to lose the Anglo-French forces in the encirclement was still unacceptable to Churchill.

"I'm sorry." Wei Gang's words were very blunt: "War always kills people." ”

War is to kill people, Britain and France appeased for 20 years, they just don't want to die, but now, when war really comes, they can't accept this reality.

Then you have to accept it, since you can't save them, you can only let them fend for themselves.
