Chapter 1932： Unexpected plot (1/2)
Since it was given to the French army, it can naturally be deployed behind the French defense line. There is no such thing as the so-called that once the fight is officially launched, the British will not have time to support it. With an additional 200,000 elite troops, Marshal Foch seems to have a higher probability of blocking this wave. Who is willing to kneel directly if he can win a round and negotiate. So just for this reinforcement, the French marshal agreed with Gallieni a bit.
”However, even if the British work harder, the basic trend will not change. Even if we block the first wave, we cannot block the second and third waves.” Petain said.
”This may also be a bluff! The strength of the Germans is not in the interests of other great powers, even the Americans do not want to see it. They have expressed the idea of mediation like us and put it into practice. We are all waiting for an opportunity, a The opportunity to stop the war. The so-called idea of continuing the war like a bull is either intimidating or arrogant. Of course, considering the prince’s ability and IQ, I think it’s more likely to be the former.”
”If we analyze it from a political perspective, if we can win a game and then negotiate, we are still friends with the British, and we can consider being close to the Americans. Our international environment will be better. Although we did not win, But we can guarantee our basic status and status. And if we take refuge in the Germans, let alone whether the Germans will honor their promises, we will be mortal enemies with the British! And the Americans do not want to see a German refuge. France! Our situation will be worse! So, isn’t this worth a fight?” Gallieni asked rhetorically.
”Well, now that we have to say everything, let's start voting.” The French president made a quiet move and discussed for a long time. Now it is time to come up with a result.
”I still insist on my opinion, I think the Franco-British alliance has lost its value.” Petain said.
”France should fight for a glorious tomorrow. I can't find a reason to take refuge in the Germans.” Gallieni and Petain's opinions were tit-for-tat.
”I am more inclined to the Secretary of the Army's opinion, but at the same time, what General Petain said is also reasonable. We can make second-hand preparations.” The marshal thought for a while and said.
”Prime Minister Ribeau, what's your opinion?” President Armand asked.
”I don't know much about the military, but from a political and diplomatic point of view, if we can continue to maintain an alliance with the British and maintain a better relationship with the Americans, France will undoubtedly be much safer. Although the relationship between the United States and Britain is Tensions, but friends’ enemies may not be our enemies. Wasn’t our previous trade and financial relations with the Americans also very good?” Prime Minister Ribo said.
”Well, in that case, I think I can make a decision.” Armand Falière took a deep breath, trying to stabilize his emotions. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
”Fucking?! What's the situation?!” All the participants expressed deep dissatisfaction. Don’t you know we’re discussing major events?
”Come in.” Although Armand was a little dissatisfied, he still let the informant in. After all, the information that can be transmitted at this time must be very important.
