Petain was a pure military man, and it was normal for him not to understand some advanced business models.

Although Roque is the boss of the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group, Roque is not the general manager of the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group, and Roque has many enterprises under his name, and if he bows to everything, it can exhaust Roque to death, so Roque really doesn't know that the Nyasaland Military Industrial Group treats Britain and France differently in sales.

This is also normal, after all, more advanced tanks have been produced, so the previous tanks have to find a way to make as much money as possible, the family is not good, life still has to be budgeted, alas, the life of the rich is so unpretentious and boring.

So Roque's reason is very strong, and the counterattack is just as sharp: "So what? I am not only the owner of the Nyasaland military-industrial complex, I am also the owner of the Nyasaland company, the owner of the RAND Bank, the owner of the Edward shipyards, the owner of the Adan company and the umbrella company, I have a total of 170 companies in which I own shares, and it takes me two and a half hours to read the financial statements every day, so what do you want me to do? ”

This 170 is really not an exaggeration, Roque's current foreign investment is partly through the RAND Bank, and partly through the Nyasaland company, unlike the Nyasaland Military Industry Group and Adan Company, which do industry, the Nyasaland company is a standard investment company, which is specially used for foreign investment.

The companies that have emerged in Nyasaland in recent years are more or less inextricably linked to Roque, so not to mention that Roque has been in Europe for three years or 30 years, Nyasaland will not change, and it is still Roque's basic plate.

It's not an exaggeration to spend two and a half hours a day reading reports, in fact, there is now a professional team in charge of this work, and this team is under the direct management of Zack.

"I want you to treat everyone equally, I want the goods that the French government buys at the price of a new tank can really play their due role, and not be killed by the direct fire guns of the Germans on the battlefield!" Petain roared, he was not jealous of how much money Roque had, but he really felt sorry for those tankmen who were directly blown up or burned alive after the tanks were hit.

The iron coffin is no joke, war is like that, when the German units did not have direct artillery, the tanks were invincible on the battlefield.

The Germans had anti-tank guns, and the tankmen became beanie.

"Henry, things are not as simple as you think, the emergence of a new technology, it takes time to put it into use, I don't know what is going on, but please believe it, the Nyasaland military industrial complex never cheats teammates-" Roque tried to explain that Petain could understand best, if Petain couldn't understand-

Who cares!

It wasn't the British tankmen who died anyway.

It is even less likely to be a southern African tankman.

It's a big deal not to sell it, but the French must accept this fact, so that more "backward weapons" can be sold to the French in the future.

The Royal Navy's purchase of aircraft carriers from southern Africa in the Battle of Jutland performed well, and now the French government is also negotiating with Edward's shipyard to buy aircraft carriers.

The Edwards shipyard never refused orders, nor did it worry about the loss of technology, and the French government once thought that it would get the technical information on tanks and planes once and for all, but found that its planes and tanks had not yet been produced, and more advanced weapons appeared in southern Africa.

What is the saddest thing in the world?

It's not that people die and the money isn't spent, it's not that the money is spent and the people aren't dead, but there is no money-

The French government borrowed money from Britain to buy technology from southern Africa.

So if France wants to buy aircraft carriers, Edward Shipyard will not cherish itself and not sell it, this is the rhythm of forcing the French to develop aircraft carriers on their own, and the general manager of Edward's shipyard is not stupid, and of course will not sell the latest design aircraft carriers to the French.

By the same token, carrier-based aircraft are certainly not the latest either.

But the carrier-based aircraft used for export in southern Africa are certainly the best relative to the aircraft of other countries.

It's an endless loop.

"You're embarrassed to say no, you're a pit!" Pétain was blunt, and it seemed right to say that.

"You're a pit bastard, you have a pit in your head—" Roque instantly turned into a vegetable market aunt.

"Stop!" Foch stopped in time, if Ludendorff knew that the commander-in-chief of the British Expeditionary Force and the French army was this kind of goods, he would probably be able to laugh off Ludendorff's big teeth: "Mr. two commanders, can you be more sensible, your IQ level is like a child in kindergarten!" ”

"You're preschool!" Luo was three years old and sneered, and four years old couldn't be more.

"Don't judge my IQ by your IQ!" Petain wasn't much stronger, and the bar clattered.

Well, it's true that everyone is a bit stressed during this time, and it's good to vent it now.

After two beers, Roque and Petain finally calmed down.

"The German offensive is weakening, either Ludendorff is exhausted, or Ludendorff is planning a new offensive." Petain said a nonsense, Ludendorff wouldn't nibble on his fingers anyway.

"No matter what he does, as long as we hold the line, the Germans will continue to bleed, and the current situation in Germany does not allow Ludendorff to act recklessly, and Ludendorff should be under great pressure." Roque is also talking nonsense, which is actually strengthening the faith, strengthening Pétain's confidence, but also strengthening Roque's own confidence.

At this point in the war, it is absolutely impossible to negotiate peace, and only when one side completely admits defeat can the war end.

Roque and Petain had no choice but to stay the course, and neither did Ludendorff.

Fortunately, Britain and France had vast colonial blood transfusions, but Germany was on the verge of collapse, Roque was sometimes curious, not knowing where the Germans' bottom line was, the fighting on the Western Front was so brutal, there were serious incidents such as mutinies in the British Expeditionary Force and the French army, and the German army never seemed to mutiny.

Germans are indeed tough and rigorous, such Germans are respected, and in any case, their loyalty to their country is admirable.

Given that Britain is in such an embattled situation, Roque doesn't know if he can hold on until now.

"Then our main figure in the next period of time is still defense, replacing offense with defense, gradually depleting Germany's strength, and letting Germany continue to bleed until Germany bleeds to death." Foch summed up Roque and Petain's thinking, the current Britain and France are not afraid of consumption, Britain and France can afford to consume, Germany cannot afford to consume.

Speaking of which, the Germans are also very sad, with such a group of pig teammates as Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire.

The Ottoman Empire, which was conquered by a Mediterranean expeditionary force led by Roque shortly after entering the war, is now defunct.

After the new Russian government withdrew from the war, Austria-Hungary still had about 100 divisions, but most of these divisions only had 5,000 to 8,000 people, which could not be regarded as divisional at all.

Conrad finally ceased to be the chief of the Austro-Hungarian General Staff and went to the Isonzo as commander of the Front.

When the Germans attacked, two more battles broke out on the Isonzo River, and the Kingdom of Italy was still languishing, and they had not broken through the Isonzo defense line even once, which was already the eleventh or twelfth Battle of the Isonzo River, and the Kingdom of Italy still had no achievements, and the casualty list added more than 100,000 casualties.

In September, I don't know if it was good news, the Provisional Government of the Far East, in the fourth year of the outbreak of the world war, finally joined the camp of the Entente and officially declared war on Germany.

This should be good news for the Entente, because the Provisional Government of the Far East has the largest population in the world, the greatest war potential, those Chinese laborers have done well in Europe, many of them have gone to work in French factories, some of them have joined the Southern African Expeditionary Force in Cyprus, and now the troops attacking the Kingdom of Bulgaria include Chinese laborers from the Far East.

Referring to the performance of Chinese laborers in Europe, if the Provisional Government of the Far East sent an expeditionary force to Europe, it would be able to gain more voice and gain more benefits after the war.

However, the situation of the Provisional Government in the Far East was more complicated than in Russia today, and the Provisional Government of the Far East debated endlessly on the question of whether or not to send an expeditionary force to Europe, and time passed in a long discussion, and finally until the end of the world war, the Provisional Government of the Far East did not send a real expeditionary force to Europe.

Therefore, this can explain why at the Paris Peace Conference in another time and space, the interests of the Chinese were directly ignored.

White people are very realistic, how much they contribute, how much they can get, Southern Africa, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, these British overseas dominions after the outbreak of the world war, all did their best to form troops to support the British mainland, Canada with a population of only 9 million conscripted 690,000 Canadians into the army, and Australia, with a total population of only 5.5 million, conscripted 550,000 Australians into the army, Southern Africa, which had a population of 5.5 million before the World War, had mobilized 1.27 million people to join the army so far, so wouldn't a Dominion deserve more autonomy?

Even India mobilized 2 million troops and sent 1.2 million to Europe, and the Provisional Government of the Far East contributed only 150,000 workers to the world war compared to these countries.

Germany's colonies in the Far East, divided between Japan and the East Indies, had nothing to do with the Provisional Government of the Far East.

Standing in Roque's position, Roque was really willing to help the Chinese in the Far East, and with Southern Africa and Roque himself's contribution to the world war, Roque must have had a huge say after the war.

But to what extent can Roque help?

This is a serious problem.
