Chapter 2071 Flip

"Okay, I will discuss diplomatic matters with other cabinet members. Now we should consider how to withdraw from France!" Asquith said. If an hour ago, Prime Minister Asquith still had some scruples about cutting with the French, then now, after listening to what Belfort and Jericho said, he has made up his mind to withdraw from France!

"Due to the current form of war, I think it is necessary for us to contact the Germans through a third country. The situation on the battlefield is already very bad. It is difficult for us to stop the next wave of German offensives. Therefore, in this case , I hope your country can consider the aftermath of the war." A few days later, at the Presidential Palace in Paris, the British ambassador to France said this to President Armand.

The British did not question why the Joffre Army did not come to the rescue when the Hamilton Army was surrounded, because this matter is no longer important. After two days of discussion and research, the British have decided to gradually withdraw from France. The Royal Air Force Air Force began to gather towards the mainland, and the British government and navy also began to mobilize a large number of merchant ships to prepare for evacuation operations. This time, the British ambassador to France came to visit the French President with only one purpose, telling the French in a very cryptic way that Britain People are leaving!

Although the British have finally decided to evacuate, after all, Britain and France are still allies on the surface, so the British believe that it is the most basic diplomatic etiquette to tell the French in advance. Otherwise, if the French do not know, the British will If you choose to evacuate, then in the end, no one knows what France, which feels abandoned, will do in anger. A person may go to extremes when he feels betrayed, and a country, when it is desperate Betrayed again, then what it will do is really scary to think about! After all, it will take a long time for the British to withdraw from France.

"So what about France? We naturally think about how the war will end. What about your country? Has your country thought about how to end the war? I think we are all aware of a problem. We lose, and if we lose, we have to pay. The price, the double price of territory and indemnity, as the main battlefield, France will naturally pay a considerable part of the price, so what about Britain? As our ally, what are you going to pay? Or is it that disaster is imminent, and everyone wants to find a way out?" President Armand said in the words There was anger and a hint of imperceptible relief.

"We are considering the first question you raised. However, I believe that with the strength of the British Empire's large fleet, it is still possible to block the German navy in the North Sea while ensuring the safety of our colonies around the world." British Ambassador Said.

"Hehe, that's true." Armand sneered in his heart, regardless of what the British mean, but in President Armand's view, the British mean this. Relying on a powerful fleet, the British can Guaranteeing the safety of the homeland and the colonies is obviously an act of self-preservation by the British. As for France, what should we do? Although the British said that the British Grand Fleet would guarantee France's overseas colonies. But this is just talking, at least the allied forces in Libya now have no problem entering Algeria, how can the British protect them? Now Britain has almost no naval power in the Mediterranean! As for the mainland of France, it can only ask for more blessings! The British are ready to abandon France!

If it is said that President Armand felt a little guilty about betraying the British before, then when the British said this, they expressed that they would cut off with the French. The last bit of guilt in President Armand's heart was gone. Now he really understands what Crown Prince Ruprecht said, the Germans are about to win the war,

And war is just a means, and profit is the goal. Well, the benefits that the Germans need will eventually be paid from the defeated, not from the French, but from the British!

And now, obviously, the British also have this awareness. Since they have already lost the war, their allies are useless except for pitting them. The British are gentlemen on the outside, businessmen on the inside, and pirates on the inside. Naturally, the British decided to let the French do it. This is being taken advantage of! At least the French saw it, and the British thought so.

"So if the Germans continue to attack, what will happen to France? There is an impassable English Channel between London and the Germans, and the German front is only a few tens of kilometers away from Paris. What should we do? Have you thought about it?" Is it?" asked President Armand.

"We will continue to defend the lines that belong to the UK," the British ambassador said.

"This is far from enough. Your country uses nearly 1.5 million troops to defend a 200-kilometer front, while France uses less than 3 million troops to defend a defense line that is several times that of your army. Even so, we can still deploy The elite corps is used to fight back against the Germans. Then your country’s troops will have more margin. In this case, why can’t we gather all the field forces to launch a counterattack?” President Armand, who has confirmed the British’s betrayal Decided to completely let go of myself and be a showman! Since the British want the French to fall into the pit, so good, the French can also count the British! Therefore, President Armand, who had already figured it out thoroughly, decided to have fun with the British! Let the British think that France will continue to fight to the end!

"I'm afraid this will be very difficult. The Germans may attack us, so we must ensure that there are enough troops on the front line." The British ambassador said with some embarrassment. He is now a little uncertain about the attitude of the French. After all, Lord Hamilton’s words can only be said to be one-sided. It is true that Marshal Foch’s army did not rescue the British army. The main force is also surrounded by the Germans, so the British are not sure whether the French have reached a compromise with the Germans!

So the British finally proposed a so-called compromise plan, which is to continue to verbally assure the French that they can stay on the original line of defense to appease the French, but in fact, they can withdraw as they want. And the British also understand that even if they want to evacuate, it is impossible to withdraw all the British troops. After all, if you leave all the defense lines of more than 200 kilometers, can the Germans not know? And once the Germans take advantage of the situation to launch an attack, you always have to arrange for some people to die, and these broken troops basically have no way out....
