Biquge www.readwn.com, update my latest chapter of the third empire as soon as possible!

In the dim light, a middle-aged man and an old man sat face-to-face, silently facing a draft German-French peace treaty.

The old man's face was covered with furrows, and it looked distorted under the light. The young man's face was not very good, so he was more sick. The two of them sat there for at least ten minutes, but still said nothing.

After a long while, the young man finally couldn't help but say, "Marshal Betten, has things reached this point?" He grabbed the old gentleman's hand, his tone full of unwillingness and helplessness.

Yes, this old man is the famous French Marshal Betten. In that year, as the Germans proceeded smoothly in the early days of the Battle of Verdun, General Debay demanded to retreat. The Betten House, which was rested in the rear, was urgently transferred to the front of Verdun on February 24, 1916, and took over the Verdun fortress. Responsibilities. Immediately, this Petain officially stepped onto the stage of history, demonstrating his excellent tactical commanding ability.

When Beitang took office, the French army was in such a terrible condition that many lines of defense were torn, and the fortresses that had been considered indestructible fell into the hands of the Germans. What's more terrible is that Petain had pneumonia the next day, and had to direct the next battle on the hospital bed. Fortunately, Betan immediately caught the key to the problem-artillery and logistics, so that the brutal battle can continue.

He put forward the famous defensive slogan "They Can't Pass" became the battlefield motto at that time. In addition, in order to prevent the morale of the French army from falling, Betan also persuaded Xiafei to adopt a force rotation system, so almost all the French Army experienced this brutal battle and accumulated experience.

Under his stern leadership, by the time he replaced General Kali as commander of the Central Army on May 1, Verdun had already turned into a crisis. And as the boss of General Nivel, who took over the command of his second army, Betan continued to exert influence on the battle of Verdun. Four months later, the French army launched a large offensive on the Somme, the Germans stopped the attack on Verdun, and the battle of Verdun ended successfully. As the "Victory of Verdun", Petain became the national hero of France and became famous all over the world. Seen as "the savior of France".

"Charles de Gaulle, we have all tried our best, but we still can't save our great France." Marshal Peitang had a beautiful ba Zihu, and every move was beautiful when he spoke, but now the old man's face is full of exhaustion, The voice of the speech is not loud: "It is time to give France a decent ending."

"If, if we can hold on for two months, then American assistance will come, and we will be able to stabilize the line of defense ..." Charles de Gaulle said bitterly. He is a staunch main battle group, so he has always fantasized that American aid materials will come soon, dragging this war into what it was during the First World War.

"Young man, you are too impulsive." Bei Dang smiled, although very reluctant, but still very calm: "It is not the same as it was in the last war."

"Why not?" Charles de Gaulle asked, frowning.

"When we fought in Belgium and some border areas, it was naturally consumed. Even if we beat those areas into sparse, we will not have irreparable losses." Betan is very straightforward, saying nothing without evasion: " We can afford to fight on other people ’s land or on land that is already barren. "

He pointed to a small French map on the edge and continued: "But, Charles de Gaulle. If we continue to fight now, where are we? Paris, Lyon, Chalon, Dijon, Rouen ... even this We have won four years in World War I. What else will France have left? "

"British people and Americans naturally hope that we will continue to fight. Only fools will use all their belongings in their homes to help others fight a war of unknown outcome." Betan said with a sneer: "Take the French Being a fool? Isn't the British idiot out of this situation today? "

"British? What do you mean?" De Gaulle asked frowning.

"Boy! You are too young! Learn something!" Bedan haha ​​laughed and said: "The British have long known that Germany is rising, and some of the external support for the rise is provided by the British! These **** British guys The strategy is to allow Germany and France to contain each other, so the implementation of the "Versailles Peace Treaty", the British have been helping the Germans to cover. "

"How can it be? Now that the British are not being beaten up, can they not look up? Is it that they do not even have to survive in order to destroy France?" Charles de Gaulle asked again.

"This is called self-eating evil! They helped the Germans to cover, but they didn't expect the Soviets to help the Germans, but they didn't expect the Germans to hide so many things in secret!" Betan sighed helplessly He said in one breath: "This Akkado is not simple ... He has been preparing for this day in 1923, and after 15 years of preparation, how could he lose?"

"That doesn't allow the Marshal to do anything humiliating!" Charles de Gaulle said, frowning: "Leave me with me, go to our overseas colony, and let the guy from Darlang go it on his own!"

"Hahaha!" The old marshal smiled and looked a lot happier, but he still waved his hand and said: "No one can replace this matter! If I don't leave this old bone in France, who can hold it? Germans and French people? "

"That marshal, your reputation?" Charles de Gaulle asked a little.

"Fame? Tell the truth. I'm more optimistic about the Germans than Britain." Betan closed his eyes and continued: "When the French traitor is my personal choice, if I choose the wrong one, my life will be ruined." , If I am right, then I will be the hero to save France. "

"But the traitor is a traitor ... there is nothing to explain." Betan laughed self-deprecatingly: "I am old and I have no way to fight, so I am more accustomed to this method of conservatism, and the path of upright but uncomfortable uphill , Depends on you young people to go. "

"What is this?" Charles de Gaulle angrily sulked.

"What's that? The best destination for a defeated France." Betan stood up and walked away with his hands: "We bet on both sides to see who is the one who can bring France out of this quagmire."

He walked to the door and looked back at Charles de Gaulle: "You immediately set off, fled to Toulon, and then rushed to the UK, where they laid a banner and set up a free France to continue to resist. And I, just stay and watch See if our head of state is the destined ruler of continental Europe. "

France was defeated this time, but it also has the advantage of defeat. The rapid defeat allowed France to retain its bones and blood, and stabilized the situation. It withdrew from this world war in the fastest and easiest way. This is for the French people. It seems that it is not bad news.

Moreover, the surrendering of Marshal Betten splits the internal forces of France and divides a neutral military gangster, the commander-in-chief of Dallang and the loose alliance of surrendering Betan, and a young officer led by Charles de Gaulle The main battle group is Free France.

This is the first move after the defeat of France. Seeing how Germany, the victorious country, accepted the move, the bargaining chip is the territory ceded by France. The bargaining content includes the size of the French army, the ownership of the navy, and how about the overseas colonies ... these The problem is the main point of confrontation between the two sides. How to complete the negotiations that are beneficial to the French is the matter of the diplomats.

In Berlin, the capital of Germany, Akado was having dinner with Mussolini. He cut the steak elegantly, with a smile unique to the winner. Mussolini gushed over there, and seemed to be unconcerned about steaks and various dishes.

He boasted of the Italian fleet, claiming that his navy had mastered most of the Mediterranean sea-making power; he was full of praise for the German export-oriented me-109c fighter, and hoped to buy more new German weapons; he talked about Italy and Germany The importance of the alliance between the two states that they are willing to share with German allies.

"Okay, the leader of Mussolini. I know that Italy is not ready for war, and I know the actual situation in Italy. Even these issues I know are clearer than your own!" Akado cut the steak while playing Broken Mussolini's bragging: "If you sign all 50 contracts, then Marseille is yours. If you feel wrong, then nothing happened. I will go to Paris tomorrow, so your best Good to answer me tonight. "

"40 copies! I can't really take charge of several treaties on expropriation of factories and airports and ports." Mussolini pleaded with a wry smile: "I really envy you. You are now enough to control Italy and Germany. Heads of decision-making in each country. "

"I am not the leader of the Italians. On the contrary, you are Mr. Mussolini! I can only seek for the well-being of the German people, and the Third Reich is not a good hall. Since we are fighting for allies, we must get it back. "The reward we deserve." Akado solemnly said: "The third empire is invincible because they trust me and treat me as a god. I want to be worthy of this belief, don't I?"

Mussolini looked at Arcado and finally sighed. He took a stack of thick documents and began to sign his name. The assistant behind him covered each document with the Italian signature. National seal.

"I really envy the Germans. They have a great leader." Mussolini was so tired that he lost his pen after signing the last name and said deeply.

"I am more fortunate that I was born into a great nation." Akado said with a smile.
