Chapter 523

The old man is useless, and since there is a problem there, it should be cut.

Clementina looked very open, and she didn't need it anyway. She wanted to show herself in public as a good prime minister's wife. In private, if she had needs, she could find someone else.

Moreover, it has nothing to do with her. She is just a family member of the patient. The doctor said that the excision is necessary, so she has no hesitation.

Churchill's rage gradually subsided, and he couldn't take it back anyway, and he was powerless. Moreover, Clementina was very calm, and this matter was not necessarily related to her.

My body has always been very good, how could such a problem suddenly occur? Did someone assassinate him?

Churchill knew that when he became Prime Minister, he would definitely offend a group of people, but he was always very strict as a guard and found nothing unusual.

Moreover, what kind of means are needed to achieve such an effect?

Churchill would never have thought of the hat, there was no problem with it, it had long since disappeared from his memory.

Now that you're powerless, let's think about something else.

At this moment, the door outside was pushed open. Churchill looked at Chief of Staff Archibald and walked in anxiously. This guy, why did he come to Paris? Don't we need someone in the country?

"Prime Minister, you are finally awake," said Archibald. "Now, the situation is quite critical."

Is the situation critical? Churchill remembered that before he lost consciousness, he had reached an agreement with French Prime Minister Reno, who agreed to withdraw all troops from the north.

Now, what's at stake?

"How many troops have we withdrawn from Dunkirk?" Churchill asked.

"Not a single one." Archibald said: "The German Seventh Armored Division has occupied Dunkirk, and our ships anchored in Dunkirk have been taken away by the Germans."

The Germans have taken control of Dunkirk! Hearing this, Churchill turned pale: "What's the matter? Didn't I already suggest to retreat immediately?"

He didn't know how long he had been in a coma, but it must have been a long time. Under such circumstances, not a single unit was withdrawn? This is simply too surprising.

"When you fell unconscious, Wei Gang made his own decision and demanded a counterattack," said Archibald.

Wei Gang? The damn guy! First there is the idiot Gan Molin, and then there is the scumbag Wei Gang!

Counterattack what? Now, France's failure is doomed! France could only hope to retreat to England first.

At this time, you actually want to counterattack? In the European continent now, there is no team that can defeat the German army!

"Help me up." Although the crotch was still painful, Churchill tried to sit up. He opened the bedside table and there was indeed his favorite cigar in it.

Lighting the cigar and taking a sharp breath, his thoughts slowly became clear.

The British Expeditionary Force, which remained on the European continent, was the most effective force in Britain. If these troops were lost, they would not be able to retrain enough troops in a short period of time.

Therefore, the army on the European continent must be saved, which is related to the future British counter-offensive!

Until now, Churchill has not given up on his ideals. He firmly believes that Great Britain will not fail!

"We have no choice, we must retake Dunkirk." Churchill said: "Send our warships, send our warplanes, and attack the German army in Dunkirk!"

In the past, the United Kingdom could not use its fists, but now, they can finally participate in the war with both the navy and the air force!

Even if the main force of the British navy is annihilated, they can still protect the English Channel, and British fighter jets can also fly over Dunkirk!

Take it back!

Relying on the support of their own air and sea, the British army on land that is retreating towards Dunkirk must fight to the death!

"Now, take me to see Raynor." Churchill barely supported his body, although the pain of the wound continued to enter his mind, he knew that he had no time.

Go to the French Prime Minister!

Smoking a cigar made him feel better, maybe, not so bad. As long as the French army takes the initiative to attack north and contain the main German Waffen SS Panzer Division, the troops in the encirclement can still retake Dunkirk.

Why are you holding on to Dunkirk and not choosing another port?

Just look at the map, only Dunkirk is the nearest, the British air force can provide cover, the navy can provide fire support, and in other ports, the British cannot do it, the Luftwaffe will block other ports in northern France , and the fighter jets taking off from the British mainland have insufficient range.

Everything will be fine!

While comforting himself, Churchill came to the Prime Minister's Office, and before he got inside, he heard a voice.

"Now, the war has no meaning. It is the best way to end this war with dignity and let our French soldiers shed less blood."

Hearing this, Churchill was instantly furious. When the situation is not favorable, there will always be a surrender faction! Now, see who is calling for surrender!

In England, Churchill would have to kill him!

With a fierce light in his eyes, Churchill walked in. When he saw the speaker clearly, he lost his temper in an instant.

Marshal Petain.

Born in a peasant family in the French department of Pas-de-Calais, Petain joined the French Army in 1876 and graduated from the Saint-Cyr Military Academy in 1878.

Years of military career have made his body extremely strong. Although he is now in his 80s and his beard is gray, his voice is still extremely loud and his waist is straight.

Such an old guy is very prestigious.

Not just old age, Petain also has enough qualifications.

During the First World War, he led the victory of the Battle of Verdun and greatly promoted the military might of the French army. After the French army's disastrous defeat at the Battle of the Somme, at the darkest time, he personally went to the front line and re-emerged. boosted the morale of the French army.

After World War I, he became the commander-in-chief of the French army.

During the First World War, even at the most dangerous juncture, Marshal Pétain, who still maintained a high fighting spirit and persisted until victory came, actually wanted to surrender!

"Marshal Pétain, your assertion is wrong." Churchill certainly wouldn't let Pétain succeed: "Imagine that in the first World War, we experienced many defeats, but we still won in the end. Now, the vast territory of France, It is still in our hands, the situation is much better than the first World War, our main force still exists, at this time, if we surrender, wouldn’t it be too irrational?”
