Chapter 500 Rescue the Troops

At this time, what is most needed is firm belief, and Churchill, the belief in his heart has never disappeared.

For Churchill, nothing was insurmountable, it was just a temporary difficulty, but when he came to the Chancellery and met French Prime Minister Renault and French Commander-in-Chief Cammelin, Churchill knew that he was still Overestimate the French.

Now, it was just dawn, and everyone hadn't slept, their eyes were red and their faces were gray.

"We have to block the German armored forces, their impact is too violent." A voice said.

Hearing this voice, Churchill was overjoyed. Until now, is there such a firm commander in the French army?

He looked over, and he knew this person. Maxime Weygand, 72, had been the chief of staff for five years during World War I, and now, he has just returned from Syria.

For the failure of the French army, someone must take the blame, and the most suitable candidate is of course the current commander-in-chief of the French army Cammelin, whose arrogance and wrong judgment ruined the entire French army.

The arrival of Wei Gang destined Gan Molin to step down, and now, it is the last handover.

"But we no longer have a strategic reserve, and now there is no army that can stand between the German armored group and the English Channel, and the Germans can march to the sea without any difficulty," Cammelin said: " Wei Gang, what can you do?"

Kammelin judged that the German army's main attack direction was the north, so he sent all the reserves to the north, and now, all of them have fallen into the German encirclement, where can we mobilize more troops to stop the Germans?

"Right now, our army just lacks the spirit of a deadly fight." Wei Gang said, "We must give orders to the troops on the front line, and never take a step back! The British First Armored Division, etc., are all powerful troops. Now, I was just frightened by the German offensive, as long as we lay out on the spot and conduct positional warfare, we can still restore the situation.”

Wei Gang just came back from Syria, and he doesn't know much about the situation in Europe at all. He just has the halo of a famous World War I general. Now he is still actively fighting. From a staunch fighting faction to a capitulation faction.

Death battle, in fact, his statement is not bad. Although the Germans seem to be fierce, the fighting will of the front-line army is too weak, which is also an important aspect. As long as the order for a death battle is issued, it is possible to save the situation.

Wei Gang's idea is the same as the Soviet Union's Military Order No. 227. Stalin used this method to forcibly stop the army's retreat.

Now, Wei Gang also wants to do this, but unfortunately, it is impossible.

For example, Churchill, who had just entered the door, absolutely did not want to do this.

It is true that a dead war may save something, but more will be lost, for example, how many people will be killed by the British Expeditionary Force? Now that defeat is inevitable, why continue to fight?

Wouldn't it be better to retreat first?

Hearing Wei Gang's words, Churchill finally spoke up: "Everyone, I have a suggestion."

Fatty Qiu's words stopped everyone from arguing and turned their attention to him.

"Now, our most important thing is to save our troops." Churchill said: "As long as the army is saved, the hope of victory is saved."

Churchill is right.

In the First World War, Britain and France lost an entire generation of young people. They have now of course realized that population is the most important thing. If these troops were eaten by the Germans, it would be impossible for Britain and France to reorganize an army of the same trees. of.

The best way is to save the troops trapped in the siege.

"However, we don't have enough reserves anymore, and we can't rescue them." Gan Morin almost repeated what he just said.

There is no reserve team. The southern part of the encirclement is the most elite Waffen SS in Germany. If you want to break through their defense lines and rescue your own army, you need an absolutely elite army.

they do not.

"We don't necessarily have to get them out of the land," Churchill said. "The best thing to do now is to get them out of the sea before the German encirclement is formed."

Saved from the sea! Hearing Churchill's words, Reno's eyes lit up, "How to save?"

"Immediately mobilize all our transport ships, and transport our troops to England at the port of Dunkirk, where the Germans have not yet arrived." Churchill said: "This is the last plan to save the army in the encirclement, Must be fast!"

Churchill said in a hurried tone: "We don't have any more time, we must make a decision as soon as possible. Once the Germans attack Dunkirk and close the encirclement, we will have no chance."

It is impossible to retreat from the land, because there is no reserve team, but from the sea, there is no need to worry.

Although the British fleet has just suffered a fiasco at sea, it is in the Atlantic Ocean after all. In the narrow English Channel, British land-based fighter jets will provide air supremacy. It is impossible for German warships to take risks and run into the English Channel. blocked.

Must be fast!

Wei Gang was stunned for a moment. If these troops retreated, what would he use to stop the German army?

You know, those who are in the north now are the main force of the French army! The remaining southern troops belong to the second-line troops. If these troops retreat to the United Kingdom, how can France continue the war of resistance?

It can be said that once these new forces leave, then France will not have to fight and simply surrender.

"Everyone, only by saving the troops can we have future victories. If these troops are eaten by the Germans, then it will be difficult for us to turn over." Churchill's tone improved a bit: "We have missed an opportunity, Now, it can't be missed anymore."

Churchill was so sure that he infected everyone: "Because of our initial mistakes, the war against Germany is destined to be a difficult war, and in our current disadvantaged situation, we must think about preserving our army, We can only wait until the day of victory!"

Churchill's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and with his firm eyes, he told everyone that his plan was correct!

When his eyes finally landed on Renault's face, they met with Renault's, and Renault nodded.

"I agree with Prime Minister Churchill."
