Chapter 2137: The End of the British Expeditionary Force 1

In fact, this news is not true. Let’s not talk about whether the French will change so quickly. A month ago, they were fighting the Germans to the death, but now they let the capital ships of the German High Seas Fleet use French ports. From a purely technical point of view, there are many problems. After all, the scale of the High Seas Fleet is too large. The capacity of any port facility in France cannot satisfy the High Seas Fleet. Moreover, the supplies and logistics equipment of the two sides are completely different. It's also hard to find enough manpower for the German fleet to help you. Even if the French are willing to provide capital ship maintenance services to the German High Seas Fleet, and the Germans are also willing to go, then the technical and practical problems are still serious!

But now a situation has been finalized, that is, the German submarines have begun to use the French base. Compared with the main fleet of hundreds of warships, it is much more convenient to maintain submarines. In addition to the need for some German-made torpedoes, The French can provide almost a full range of services, and it is for this reason that Jericho is so afraid of the German plans!

Although technically speaking, it is very difficult for the Germans to enter the French port, but this is just a guess after all. What is the actual situation? War is the most accident-prone. If the German fleet really arrives at a port on the west coast of France and can obtain a certain degree of logistical support, it will be too fatal for the Royal Navy! This means that the Grand Fleet is forced to PK with the other side in the French coast or the Atlantic Ocean. In this case, it is really hard to say how the outcome will be.

Although Jericho developed a series of tactics around aviation, what if the weather is bad on the day of the decisive battle... . Who is right! As for flashing people? Most of the British battleships were 3 or 4 knots slower than the Germans! And because of the lack of fuel, the speed must be controlled, and the speed of the battle may drop even more. In this case, you can't walk if you want to!

In fact, although Jericho already has a general framework in terms of tactics, when it comes to specific strategies, such as when and where to fight, Jericho is still not sure. If the German High Seas Fleet really wants to stab the British artery, it will definitely go the way of the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea, and the Atlantic Ocean. So, which of these three sea areas should you choose as the battlefield? Jericho is really not sure! To a certain extent, this is not something that Jericho can decide. The initiative is in the hands of the Germans. Therefore, Jericho can only see the tricks, instead of choosing a predetermined battlefield and waiting for the opponent to come!

While Jericho and Thomas were arguing about the future decisive battle at sea, Prime Minister Asquith in London also called Commander Haig of the British Expeditionary Force. He now needs to tell Marshal Haig about a very bad decision made by the top management!

"Last night it seemed that a big battle broke out in the Strait of Dover." Marshal Haig's voice came from the opposite side.

"It's like this. We won the night battle, but lost the day battle. General Thomas' fleet suffered heavy losses from the air strikes of the Luftwaffe." Prime Minister Asquith said in a low voice.

"So, Admiral Jericho refused to deploy troops in the Strait of Dover?" Marshal Haig's words were cold!

"Yes, not only him, but also the high-level executives. We are actually unable to guarantee the smooth flow of sea transport ships. Maybe we can raise some transport ships, but this evacuation work is undoubtedly breaking through the gates of hell. As you Marshal, you should be very clear about the significance of the Royal Navy to the Empire, and under such circumstances, the Empire really should not continue to invest in the fleet."

"So, we were abandoned? Millions of soldiers who fought for the interests of the British Empire in foreign lands for 2 years were thrown away like a rag by you?! You know? Every soldier,

The fundamental reason why they can still pick up guns and fight against German tanks and planes in the trenches is because he believes that the British Empire will not abandon its soldiers. After a fiasco, the British Empire still won't let go! But now? ! I still have more than 500,000 troops in my hands, and fresh lives are sent to the altar of the God of War every moment. They were eager to be saved, and they did not hesitate to shed their blood for the empire, but in the end, what we waited for was such a result! "

"The British Empire is over! He has lost his warriors and his past glory! This is more painful than the loss of a war! Your decision will affect a whole generation! No one will take up a rifle for the Empire again, worldwide. There is a war inside! No one!" Marshal Haig roared hysterically.

"Sorry, when I made this decision, my heart was bleeding. We will try our best to save the lives of the soldiers of the expeditionary army. If things are irreparable, you and your expeditionary army can choose to surrender." Aspen Prime Minister Ques said.

"Listen, now, the Germans' long-range artillery can cover the whole of Dunkirk, no place in the defense line is safe, we are at the end of the road, if it is not for the possible evacuation plan, I may have been in a week ago I chose to surrender. For this possible plan, my troops lost more than 150,000 people! They all died for the British Empire, so, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, I decided to surrender immediately after putting down the phone! We have tried our best It is." Marshal Haig said.

"We understand your behavior," said Asquith. Now, the British Prime Minister could no longer persuade Field Marshal Haig to continue.

"If it is convenient for you, you can hand over the authority to your deputy, and then we will arrange a plane to transport you back to the UK." Asquith did not make this decision because of his personal friendship with Marshal Haig He just thinks that it is a very embarrassing thing for Britain that a marshal of the British Expeditionary Force just appeared at the surrender ceremony, and then handed over his sword and scepter under the flashlight. According to his words At this moment, the hundreds of years of glory of the British Empire Army will disappear.

"No! I will be with my colleagues! You have abandoned them, but I will never! I will endure the humiliation that deserves to be endured with them! Neither I nor the command team will leave here! We and you politicians are not the same Same! I will share weal and woe with my soldiers!" Marshal Haig said with a last word.
