2059 Compromise 4

The two sides then redefined the action plans and obligations of Germany and France. After 4 hours of talks, the two sides finally finalized more than 80% of the content. After the meeting, France ordered the French army to whom Marshal Foch moved south and escaped contact with the British. At the same time, France cut off all supplies and electricity from the British, and all power plants, water plants, factories and other facilities controlled by the French in the British controlled area, and the French would also carry out certain damages to a certain extent, at least to ensure that they could not be used for a short period of time!

During this period, the German army needed to disconnect from the French army and could not attack French troops or ordinary French targets. Subsequently, France and Germany would negotiate on the nature of contact under the coordination of the Americans to determine how to end the war and the compensation and obligations that France needs to bear.

Of course, before this, Germany must ensure the territorial integrity of France in Europe and some African colonies. Yes, the French are not stupid. They are very clear that those African colonies are important and cannot be discarded, so they will ask Germany to promise not to make territorial claims for certain colonies. Ruprecht agreed with this, because, to be honest, with British colonies in southern Africa, the French and Germans really look down on them.

"We can contact Marshal Foch now, and your liaison officer will be there tonight." At the end of the meeting, Crimontso said.

"Very good. I hope our cooperation will go smoothly. In addition, before we launch an offensive against the British Sixth Army, we ask you to keep it strictly confidential. This is related to our relationship with France after the war. I hope you can be cautious." Moltke reminded.

Two hours later, at the French General Command, Foch looked at the telegram in front of him for a long time. Although he had known the result of this matter a few hours ago, when he was about to shake hands with the German army that had fought for two years, and then in turn cheated his former comrades, he was still a little reluctant. But Betan was much more calm. He had already begun to arrange the situation, at least the British in the French army must fully control or restrict it!

"Don't you think what you are doing now is ashamed?" Foch said to Beta.

"I am now in execution of the orders of His Excellency the President. We are fighting for France. Do you think this is ashamed?" asked Betton.

"You mean we failed this war. We paid hundreds of billions of francs and millions of casualties. In the end, we not only gained nothing, but also lost our original interests and became treacherous. Thinking about the high spirits and ambitions before the war broke out, it was really ironic!" Foch said excitedly.

"We had failed, so what we need to do now is to reduce the losses of France. Marshal Foch, you have to remember that the Germans always have to get enough rewards, and if they don't take them from us, they are from the British." After that, Betton continued to do his own thing. With the issuance of orders, the French army began to gradually break off contact with the German army. At the same time, the British did not realize the betrayal of the French. At least now Lord Hamilton is considering how to face the German attack.

"Our current situation is very bad, the defense line is incomplete, and it can even be described as leaking everywhere. The Germans broke through the French front in less than three days and severely damaged the French's final reserve team. Foch's troops may even be difficult to supply now, let alone attack." After reading the information summarized by Heart, Lord Hamilton said with a gloomy face.

"This battle is no longer possible, the French cannot take on their responsibilities, and there is a German army behind us," said a British officer.

"But it is not easy to retreat. We have at least a starting position to build. If we choose to retreat, the German fast troops and tanks can catch up with us in half a day. At this time, who stays behind and cuts behind? Whoever cuts behind and dies." Montgomery said.

"We can go back and destroy the German army that penetrated deep behind the French enemy. We have more tanks and have strong maneuverability. Let the French temporarily help us cut off the rear." Another British officer said.

"The French are not fools. Now whoever cuts the rear will die." Montgomery said again.

"It's all like this now, the French's front is hopeless. Since that's the case, why do we still have to stay here? We are British, not French, we have shed enough blood on the French! Damn, the British Empire lost its population in the 300-year battle [31 Novel Network      ] The officer couldn't control his emotions and cursed loudly!

"Enough! At least we are still allies now!" Lord Hamilton's angry voice echoed in the conference room! "I will discuss this matter with Marshal Foch, and the British Empire will not easily abandon allies. Of course, under the current circumstances, the previous strategy is indeed impossible to implement. I will seriously consider the issue of retreat."

The situation is very difficult now. The alliance is a bird of the same life, and the disaster comes and each one flies! Lord Hamilton is very clear that whoever stays and dies at this time. But at the same time, he also knows that without the cooperation of the French, it is difficult for the British army to escape. Therefore, conflicts must not be intensified at this time. Compromise and cooperation are the only way to solve the problem!

"Marty Marshal Foch, I think it is meaningless to continue to carry out the established plan under the current circumstances," said Lord Hamilton on the phone.

"I agree with your point of view, Commander." Marshal Foch said calmly.

"So we have to think about retreating," said Lord Hamilton.

"How to retreat? How to retreat? How to coordinate?" Marshal Foch's voice sounded again.

"It is obviously not realistic to leave a part of the troops to defend themselves. After all, we are two troops. The troubles in the command system will cause problems in the cooperation between the two troops. So my suggestion is that the British and French armies alternately cover the retreat." Lord Hamilton said.

"Well, since that's the case, the French army is willing to take on the first day of cover. We will cover your army's evacuation on the first day, and then your army will garrison on site and respond to us." Marshal Foch said.
