Chapter 2004： Make a decision (1/2)
Now the situation has become a heavy blow to France and peace talks with Britain. This still did not touch the bottom line of the Americans, because Britain and France did not subdue their country, and as an island country, Britain retains a lot of vitality and can still contain Germany. This is also within the bottom line! However, this is definitely not what Americans want to see... Not to mention anything else, if the British sold a batch of warships to Japan in order to recover their blood after the war, then it would be a great threat to the United States!
”We know that Prince Ruprecht’s conditions for your country are harsh, but they are definitely the best choice at the moment. I can only tell you one thing when I came here, and that is to accept this condition, and then we act as intermediaries to help A handful of your country, in return for the help your country gave us when it became independent in the United States of America. There is nothing we can do,” said the American ambassador.
”Is it too late?” Petain said suddenly.
”How can it be too late? If you make a decision, we can now contact Crown Prince Ruprecht through a special channel!” said the American ambassador.
”No, you don't understand military. Once the military deployment is determined, even if there are some accidents, as long as it is not particularly serious, then the whole plan will continue, because it involves millions of troops. Tens of thousands of various artillery, several Thousands of planes and millions of tons of supplies. Changes in the daytime can cause terrible chaos, just like an overloaded car is difficult to brake. Once the Germans have decided, it may be difficult for them to change their minds.” Explained.
”If this is the case, we can only do our best.” The American ambassador was taken aback first, and then said. ”If this is the case, I hope the French army on the front can perform better.”
”So now, I want to make sure that your country is ready to accept the request made by Germany? Once Germany decides to launch an offensive against Britain, will the French army open a 20-kilometer hole at the junction of the British and French armies? ?” said the American ambassador.
”We agree in principle.” President Armand thought for a while and said.
”You are playing with fire!” The American ambassadors all smiled angrily. ”Dear President Armand, everything the United States of America does is to use its dignity and credibility as a guarantee. Your first mouse will directly lead to the loss of the reputation of the United States! This is not only a provocation to Germany, but also to the United States. Provocation!”
”I can tell you clearly now that if you can't come up with an official statement signed and stamped by the President and the main members of the Cabinet, then we will refuse to participate in this matter. Anyway, it is France, not us.” The ambassador said righteously.
”Give us two more days.” President Armand said.
”You're done!” The American ambassador said in his heart, he left blankly, and now the American ambassador also admires the French in his heart! It's really not easy to be so ”come” at this time!
”This decision is best made as soon as possible. What I said before is not a joke.” Petain admires his president a little bit. In the election that year, Petain also voted for this buddy. He really doubts now. Did he choose him when his head was drawn?
