Taking advantage of this big move of the Germans, the French took the opportunity to launch a series of propaganda, for the French, romance and casualness is their nature, and the rigidity and cruelty of the army, in sharp contrast, the French conscription work has always been more difficult, that is, after being besieged, it is a little better, and now, there is no possibility of escape, homeopathic propaganda of German brutality, actually triggered a series of waves of joining the army.

In the past few months, under the premise that the air route has not been cut off, France has sent a large number of arms to Paris, including a large number of weapons and equipment, with the help of these, France has formed 12 new divisions, almost 150,000 people, but these recruits who have not even undergone recruit training, how much combat effectiveness, no one dares to guarantee.

But at this moment, France can have more than 100,000 troops, which is already the greatest benefit, at any time, cannon fodder troops have a role, especially in large-scale trench warfare such as World War I, who said that inexperienced soldiers can't kill people, as long as they can shoot and enter the fortifications, they can have an effect.

Compared with the excitement of the French high-level, the United States has a different idea, such a surprise attack, so that Sosa understands that if you don't want to think of a way, I'm afraid these things really can't be shipped, and the transaction with the French government, of course, the Americans can't pay the full amount at the beginning, just 10% of the advance payment, this advance payment is not cash, it is an order, in this war years, the value of the order, and cash, how can the French government not understand the intentions of the Americans. This is for the sake of the hearts of both sides, because France is mostly occupied by the country. There is also a lack of large quantities of arms, which have always been ordered in the United States. For this. A special telegram network was made to inform the United States of the situation.

The United States has always attached great importance to this transaction, which represents the success of the United States, the United States is a commercial society, and the money of the American consortium and the money of the United States government are completely two different concepts, under the condition that this batch of antiques may not be able to be made. Immediately urge the government to put pressure on France.

At other times, it was just an influential country on the American side, and now, the whole of Europe needs American weapons, not to mention that the French government is still in a very difficult time, not to mention 55 million US dollars, even an order of 5 million US dollars is very important, enough to arm two or three more divisions in the rear, 55 million is 20 divisions. In this case, France must act.

Because of the Americans, France not only saw the value of these antiques, but also realized that they were in the long past. Some of the accumulated national treasures are still in Paris, France, and include some things that have an important impact on French history. These fell into the hands of the Germans, for France. It's a disaster.

The temptations in the air continued, and the ground was not idle. The pervasive infiltration of the German elite squads made the French feel like they were facing a great enemy, and the huge Paris, which should have been relied on by the defenders, could not be used as a barrier in the huge city, like a sieve, the Germans could be let in at will, and the French were naturally full of soldiers, and there were more and more similar attacks, more and more intensive, and there was a feeling of exhaustion.

The French City Defense Command, that is, the French Supreme Military Command Department in Paris, the French and British Supreme Commanders sat together, with a huge map in front of them, after a whole winter of preparations, Britain and France were not as unprepared as last winter, Britain concentrated 750,000 troops on the French side, France concentrated 900,000 troops, and more than 300,000 supplementary corps, this strength is enough for them to make a move.

In the British and French coalition forces, a battle plan has long been prepared, to launch an offensive in the spring, not only Paris itself, this is a key point, but not all, in the plan Britain and France formed a heavy army, divided into two directions, to the north of the French counterattack, ready to put the current position of the front, 200 kilometers to the north, liberate a large area of French territory, from the essence, to relieve the siege of Paris.

The Paris side is the most core, the commander needs to command in the middle, and by the way, let the airship troops and almost 400,000 elite forces jointly attack the German position, this is not a separate plan, including the army, including the airship force, and even on the coast of France and Britain, there will be a group of fleets to support the sea, help the troops on the Western Front, and attack the German defense line.

In order to deal with the German airship advantage, in the original plan, Britain and France will use 600 airships to take the initiative to provoke an attack, in all military comparisons, only airships, Britain and France have the advantage, airships will become an important breakthrough, as long as this aspect wins, then whether it is the army or the navy, it will be easy to fight.

But now there is a little bit of a problem, but with the intensification of small-scale confrontation, they found that the quality of the German airship is higher than that of Britain and France, although it looks similar, and even a little larger on the British and French sides, but in terms of firepower and sinking resistance, the German airship is superior.

Of course, although the whole world, because of the war, has entered the era of airships, but based on the technology of this era, compared with the materials and technology of later generations, it is still a little worse, airships because of their natural shortcomings, can not become the protagonist of the sky, but a little adjustment, such as making the firepower more reasonable, the improvement of sinking resistance and skeleton performance, can not completely make the German airship an unsinkable castle, you can replace less or more.

Through a series of calculations, the commanders of the two countries found that 600 ships were somewhat insufficient. According to the previous airship shot down ratio, they are even at a disadvantage, but Britain and France, with their deep pockets, quickly found a solution, because the capital is sufficient, their production capacity is quite terrible, after the German sneak attack on Britain, the British mainland has more than 200 airships all year round protection, if 150 airships are urgently called from the United Kingdom, plus 50 ships temporarily put together by France, they will reach the extent of 800 ships, in this way, even according to the shootdown ratio, their advantage is quite large.

Any campaign is not just a small area, in addition to the war on land, in the southern Mediterranean, similar offensives will follow, from the home fleet and the fast fleet, in the case of the transfer of some capital ships, these warships will enter the Mediterranean, and the original Mediterranean fleet, combined into a new fleet, the Mediterranean strategy, the Italian and Turkish navies, by the way, help the Balkan Alliance, restore their strength, and strive to be behind the French allies, Open up the battlefield and force the Allies to take care of one or the other with a three-pronged force.

In Russia in the north, because of being beaten by Germany, Russia even after a winter of correction, recovered part of its strength, but did not dare to directly do it against Germany, but it is still okay to bully Austria-Hungary, or even Turkey, which has been bullying, their hands and feet are basically near the Caspian Sea, that is what they are good at, the Russian-Turkish war has lasted for more than 100 years, and Russia has received a lot of benefits on the Turkish side, even if it is currently preparing revenge in the Far East with the support of Britain and France, However, it was a soft persimmon Turkey with Austria-Hungary, and they gladly accepted it.

Things are all relatively changing, just like the stars, a change, can always lead to a series of changes, the use of British and French airships, is still weak, there is no northwest teaching, even the airship is seen after the Germans used, imitation follow-up, while waiting for the follow-up airship to arrive, small-scale testing has not stopped, and there are signs of gradual intensification.

In a short period of seven days, the two sides took the air of Paris as the battlefield, and carried out at least more than 50 air battles, as few as three or four, and as many as dozens, and the fierce air battles filled the sky, and the bombs dropped in the air battles have caused the land forces of both sides to suffer a lot of casualties, especially the German army, after all, the French army is in the city, but the German army is in the field, in this case, as long as a bomb is put into the place where the barracks are located, it can almost inevitably cause great lethality.

The German army also began to pay attention to the air power, because the German air power occupies an absolute advantage, so the entire force is under the cover of the airship, there is no need to consider the air battle, nor the air power, now it seems that the air power must be considered, because if they face the airship, how to dodge, none of them can restrain the power of the airship, can only watch them spread wild on their heads.

At this time, no one is discussing whether the airship is outdated, it is not the point, but the missed attacks can cause the army to suffer, although compared to the huge army, this loss is negligible, but it can only be passively beaten, this feeling is really unpleasant.

More than 3 million armies from both sides have become spectators, and all they have to do every day is to watch the sky as the huge guys battle each other, occasionally commenting with interest who wins and who loses, and of course, in case anything falls on their heads.

Intensive exploratory attacks, almost a few days ago, small-scale airship battles, began to decrease, Britain and France first decreased, and the German side, also decreased, it seems that both sides have stopped, maintain restraint, but whether it is the British and French commanders, or the German side, they all know that the small-scale temptation has ended, and next, is the strategic decisive battle that both sides are looking forward to, how much strength will be used at this time, and the victory or defeat may only be in a few days.
