General Heg didn't have to explain to Wei Gang how much army and equipment he had obtained. He knew that only the only way to change the other party's decision was to perform on the battlefield. This time he planned to use facts to prove the strength of the British Empire's army. This time, the British really planned to work hard to make their money!

"Uh. This..." The sudden change made Wei Gang feel a little uncomfortable. If the British beg for nothing to ask the French to continue fighting, then Wei Gang could really directly issue an order to retreat. After all, he had considered saying hello. But now, the British obviously have to fight to the end and increase their investment. If he retreated decisively at this time, he would be a little embarrassed and would not be able to hide his face.

"We will try our best to cooperate, but I am frankly frankly, the French army has reached the end of its strength. I hope you can notice this." General Wei Gang said carefully. The French cannot decisively sell their teammates, but due to their strength, Wei Gang has no choice. Unless the British can achieve a great victory, the French will still be prepared to focus on defense in the future and then promote peace...

"Okay, now, you have a whole night to tell me what happened, to get the British Empire to be fully involved in a large-scale land battle, which is inconsistent with our policy that has lasted for hundreds of years." After a brief greeting, General Heg said to Envoy Chamberlain.

"This situation is indeed not what we want to see. At the same time, maintaining the world's number one navy and the army that can fully match European powers is a very difficult thing for the empire. But now, for the future of the British Empire, we must strengthen the army, and even temporarily weaken the navy. In the future, we must be prepared to take on half or even more responsibility on the Western Front. You must be mentally prepared." Chamberlain also had a sad expression on his face.

In fact, if you look at it overall, the British Army is not as strong as the great powers of the modern European continent at the same time. You can say that the British Army has a higher combat quality under the same scale. But if you consider the number, then take a shower and go to bed. During the Napoleon period, the British Army was definitely not as good as France and Russia. After the rise of the German Empire, it was definitely not as good as Germany. Now, if the combat effectiveness of the countries participating in the war is evaluated, the German Army is far stronger than the French Army, and the French Army is much stronger than the British Army. After all, where is the scale of troops and equipment?

The British never intended to rely on his army to resist the European continent's powers because this is not realistic, because Britain's population is limited and its economic power is limited, so it is already very difficult to ensure a navy above other powerful countries. In fact, the biggest enemy of the British Navy was never a fleet of hostile countries before World War I, but his own budget... After Fisher became the head of the Royal Navy, his most outstanding achievements not only allowed the Navy to enter the era of fearlessness, but more importantly, he greatly removed the low combat ships in the Royal Navy, improving the combat efficiency of the fleet. He gave the Royal Navy more funds to build new warships!

The British had only one requirement for their army, that is, they could be used as an important bargaining factor that could determine the victory or defeat of the European continent. Therefore, the British Army is indeed very elite, but its scale is limited. In fact, this war was beyond the British expectations from the beginning. According to the first commander of the British Expeditionary Force, the first wave of British army officers and soldiers who participated in the war would either die on the battlefield in three months, or had returned to the local area due to disability... And now, if the British were allowed to share half of the battlefield casualties and half of the land damage, this would be a basis for the British to shake the hegemony!

"It is obvious that the Prime Minister and the Imperial Government have realized this situation and the consequences, so now, can you tell me what exactly caused the Empire to make such a painful decision?" General Heg asked.

"The French may betray us at critical moments, and based on the intelligence we obtained, the French are at least 60% sure that they can force the German army to withdraw from French and European territory!" said Chamberlain.

"Although I have guessed this result, I was still very shocked when you said this." General Heg said.

"According to our intelligence, the French ambassador to the United States has contacted the Americans. Although the Americans are now ally of the Germans, it is obvious that the Americans are unwilling to let the Germans do too much. The American top leaders believe that it is very important to retain France as a way to continue to restrain the Germans. Therefore, they are willing to come forward to help the French and let the French avoid their capital being robbed by the Germans again!"

"As for the cost? On the Eastern Front, the German-Russian border will be based on the current border line in the future. Several pro-German satellite countries may appear. The French admitted that they permanently gave up sovereignty over the Alsace and Lorraine regions. However, the Germans retained France's territory in Europe. As for the colonies, there may be some concessions between the two sides. If the French are willing to accept it, the US government can also consider providing emergency loans to the French after the war to restore France's already collapsed economy." Chamberlain said.

"In other words, the French may betray us? At the same time, the French will also let go of their arrogance and be willing to become a second-rate country on the European continent from now on?" General Heg said.

"Yes, at least the French have chosen to retreat for the time being. If Russia in the east can establish a strong government in the future, the French may have a little idea of ​​revenge. If Russia sinks there, the French may really surrender completely. After all, the French who dares to fight now are almost dead." Chamberlain said.

"This news is really shocking. It makes people feel desperate!" General Hege took out his handkerchief and wiped his cold sweat. Imagine, if one day the French suddenly chose to withdraw from the war, what should the British Expeditionary Force on the European continent do? How many millions of British troops can return to their hometown? Think about the five Russian armies that were directly eaten by the Bavarian Legion and the Prussian Legion in Russian Poland, and look at themselves? General Hege realized that the greatest danger was coming. The British Army would be forced to take on the responsibilities that he should not bear in his original strategy for the first time!
