The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 2041: Foch's Decision

(page 1/1)

"Fuck, what are you going to do?" Lord Hamilton suddenly felt a little panicked. Now there are only two Frenchmen and himself left. What does the other party want to do? Although it has nothing to do with violence and affection, it is obvious that what these two Frenchmen did is not very glorious!

"Your Excellency, I guarantee on my honor and the honor of the French Legion that there are no monitoring devices in the house." Petain stepped forward and said, "And as you can see, all irrelevant people have left, so now I think we can talk about some issues openly and honestly."

"Disregarding all non-war factors, what do you think we should do on the battlefield so that we can withdraw from the war with dignity." Petain asked.

"Naturally, it will cause greater damage to the Germans, and make the fighting situation more anxious, and develop towards a long-term development. When the cost of the war is too high, the Germans will naturally consider stopping the war." Lord Hamilton said.

"However, do you think the current pure defense can achieve the goal you just said?" Petain continued to ask.

"It's hard." After a moment of contemplation, the lord squeezed out a few words between his teeth. Although he knew that the other party was suspected of setting up a trap, the lord's personality and military integrity prevented him from telling lies with his eyes open.

"Well then, I would like to ask, if it is the Prussian method of attack, do you think the British army is afraid?" Pétain asked.

"We have seen the tactics of the Prussian Legion many times. If it was really effective, the war would have ended long ago. Although it is a bit stressful to deal with, it is still within the tolerable range. The Prussian Legion lacks sufficient penetration." Lord Hamilton Said.

"So, as long as we can defeat the Bavarian Legion now, it will not be difficult to re-stabilize the front line. The Bavarian Legion's offensive relies on a large number of tanks, and once these expensive equipment suffer large-scale losses, it will not be a short period of time. It can be made up for. Don't you think so?" said Pétain.

"Huh?!" Lord Hamilton was taken aback for a moment, and then understood what the other party meant. "The German tanks are indeed very powerful, but this time I brought a large number of 4-inch guns and 15-pound and 18-pound cannons. I also equipped them with truck or half-track chassis."

The British really wanted to help the French this time, so they made targeted deployments when they came. Naturally, they had to prepare a large number of cannons to deal with tanks, and in order to deal with aircraft, Lord Hamilton’s regiment was also equipped with a large number of cannons. Anti-aircraft machine guns and 2-pound rapid-fire guns! These things were placed on Navy battleships not so long ago! This action is enough to see the sincerity of the British.

"If we limit your frontal attack to about 15 kilometers, what do you think?" Foch said, pointing to the red line on the wall with the putter in his hand.

"You mean the French will bear at least half the pressure?" asked Lord Hamilton.

"That's right, we only fight one wave! We and your army are doing our best! I just mobilized troops from other fronts. This is a secret mobilization. Some people in the headquarters don't know about it, because I'm afraid they will object!" Foch said.

"Then your army is probably empty on certain lines of defense. Once the Germans choose to attack, the consequences will be unimaginable." Hamilton felt the fighting spirit and tenacity of the opponent from Foch's words.

"So we can't lose. Once we lose, France will lose everything." Foch said firmly.

"As for your opinion, I have no objection, I uphold neutrality.

However, if it is only to deal with half of the German troops on the front line, at least it will be more than enough. ' said Lord Hamilton at last.

"Very well, on behalf of France, I would like to thank you for your bravery and fearlessness, as well as your support for the French Republic!" Afterwards, Foch no longer said anything to Lord Hamilton, but came to a red telephone. After answering, a familiar voice rang in Lord Hamilton's ear.

"This is Marshal Haig, is Marshal Foch on the other side?" Marshal Haig's voice came from the phone!

"I am Foch, now, I would like to inform you of the final decision of the French Republic on this campaign, and we will go forward to launch a counterattack against the German army." Foch's words were very simple.

"Fuck! This is forcing the palace!" Marshal Haig frowned. The French finally chose to put all their eggs in one basket! As for the British, all he can do now is to accompany him... At least that's the case with Hamilton's Legion! Because the British absolutely cannot bear the result of the collapse of the French army!

In fact, this was a psychological game. The French did not dare to put all their eggs in one basket because they were worried about the inaction of the British, and the British feared that the French would put all their eggs in one basket and it might lead to the collapse of the whole line, even threatening that the Hamilton Army would not participate in the attack. In order to allow the French army to choose a more secure approach.

However, now, this mutually restraining game is finally over, because one party has decided not to play like this anymore! The French are determined to play a big game, and if they don't succeed, they will give up! In this matter, Foch did not deceive Haig, and this will be the last decision of the French!

The reason why Foch and Petain asked Lord Hamilton before was actually to see the Lord's own judgment and self-confidence, but now the results seem to be good. The Lord and the French are similar in grand strategy, and the Lord also believes that if his army If you only bear half the pressure, it seems that the problem is not big!

"Is Lord Hamilton there?" asked Marshal Haig. "Let him answer the phone." Lord hesitated and stepped forward.

"What's your opinion?" Marshal Haig asked.

"If we give up this opportunity and fail to hit the Germans hard, then we will be powerless to stop the next wave of German attacks. The Germans are far from doing their best, but this time, the French have all the troops they can fight. Morale is questionable and needs a victory," Lord Hamilton said.

This is the art of speaking. At this time, Lord Hamilton cannot say how about the British army under his command, because as the commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force, Marshal Haig knows more about the situation of the British army than Hamilton. At this time, the Lord has already tended to Yu Foch, in this case, he said that the army is just taking a breath, if the breath is gone, then there is no need to fight the war, and since this is the case, Marshal Haig dare not say no anyway. support it! Otherwise, who knows what the French would have done? Maybe just vote now? A terrifying thought made Marshal Haig tremble!
