Chapter 552: The Frenchman in a hurry

"What...... In Huaxia? Reynaud couldn't believe his ears, and if he wasn't really in the mood right now, he would almost have laughed out loud. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Colonel Quest, are you sure you're not talking nonsense?" The temper of Gammelin on the side was obviously much worse than that of Reynolds, and he widened his eyes and angrily scolded the colonel, thinking that he was being mocked.

The poor colonel, in the face of the anger of the commander-in-chief of the French army, immediately withered, and for a time stammered speechless. Seeing the colonel's appearance, Gan Molin was even more convinced of his opinion, and he pointed to the gate with his right hand and shouted angrily: "You go out for me immediately!" ”

"Your Excellency the Admiral, I ......"

"Get out...... Immediately! Before I get angry! Ganmalin's beard seemed to be cocked.

"Wait!"

Just as the poor colonel was about to go out helplessly, Churchill spoke, only to see him stop the colonel and ask gently: "Tell me, young man, what is the matter with what you just said?" Why do you have any factual basis for saying that our reinforcements are in China? ”

"Your Excellency, do you believe his nonsense?" Ganmalin, who was on the side, couldn't help but be a little unhappy for a while when he saw that Churchill had actually stopped the colonel.

Unexpectedly, Churchill, who was still mild-mannered just now, immediately changed his face when he heard this, only to see him solemnly look at Gan Molin and say unhappily: "Your Excellency, as the head of the British Empire, can't I, as the head of the British Empire, ask about our reinforcements?" ”

Churchill's anger suddenly became very majestic, and Ganmalin withered when he saw this situation, and could only say, "Of course...... Of course you have that right. ”

"Thank you!"

Churchill then turned to the colonel and said, "All right, now you can speak." ”

"Good...... Okay, here's the thing. ”

The colonel, who had been encouraged by Churchill, told them in a still not fluent way that the United States had found an army from China for them, and the three Churchills listened to it with a look of consternation. After he finished speaking, Renaud asked in surprise: "God, there is such a thing, but why don't I know about such a big thing?" ”

The colonel said cautiously: "Your Excellency, I remember that Mr. Armand, the French consul in Shanghai, sent a telegram at that time, and I personally presented this telegram to you, but you were discussing the matter with General Gammelin, and after taking a look at it, he said that France did not have so much food to feed waste, and then threw this telegram away. ”

"Uh...... And what's going on? Now Renault and Gan Molin are a little embarrassed, and the telegram was thrown away by the two of them.

Looking at the slightly embarrassed two, Churchill couldn't help but stroke his forehead, what is a pig teammate, that's it, he actually pushed away the reinforcements sent by others, this has to be done by many brain-dead people. Even if these people are waste, it is more than 100,000 heads, so many people are put on the front line to be captured by the Germans, and the Germans will have to be arrested for a few days, but now they are given up by Renault with a fluttering word.

Although Churchill was now eager to strangle these two guys with his own hands, he held back. He continued to ask the colonel, "Can you still find information about that unit?" ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister." The colonel hastened to reply: "I still have a stub at that time, and I will show it to you at once." ”

Soon the colonel took the telegram, and Churchill read it carefully, and Reynaud and Gammelin came to him. It's just that the three of them were taken aback at a glance, feeling that this army is not a brisket army, but a group army with great achievements! Not only did he defeat the Japanese army repeatedly, but he also had an air force equipped with more than 300 of the most advanced fighters in the world today, not to mention anything else, if that elite air force could be transferred to France now, it would immediately play a great role in easing the war situation, at least the German air force could not be so rampant.

After reading the telegram, Churchill looked at Renault with a strange gaze and asked in bewilderment: "Mr. President, this is what you call the waste army?" If this is also a waste army, then I really hope that there will be more such waste troops in France today. ”

Renault also said with a flushed face: "I'm sorry Mr. Prime Minister, this is my mistake, I hope I have time to make up for it!" ”

Churchill took out his pipe from his pocket and pointed it at Renault, and the two said solemnly: "Mr. President, I hope that you can immediately call the French Consulate in Lu, and ask them to immediately urge that Chinese army to go to France, as soon as possible, as long as we can reach France within a month, then this force will be of great help to us!" ”

Renault and Gan Molin glanced at each other, and nodded solemnly, "Your Excellency Prime Minister, I will!" ”

The French, who were on a life-and-death stake, no longer had the arrogance of the Gallic chicken, and an hour later an urgent telegram crossed the ocean from Paris to Armand, the French consulate in Shanghai. When Armand, who was urgently woken up, saw the telegram in his hand, his expression was the same as that of his own boss, showing a look like a dog.

Early the next morning, Armand sent a telegram to the American ambassador to China, Jensen, in which he kept relaying Reynaud's words and begged Jensen to urge the Third Army to immediately set out for France to help the Anglo-French forces, which were already in danger.

"What...... That's impossible! ”

Su Jin's voice sounded in the office, and I saw him say: "Mr. Jensen, you must know that we have an agreement with your country, and the first batch of troops will not be ready until mid-June at the earliest. And now our two units are fighting with the Japanese in Fujian, and there is no way to rush to France in advance. ”

Jensen frowned, "But General Su, as far as I know, you still have three infantry divisions deployed in northern Zhejiang, aren't these troops ready?" ”

Su Jin spread his hands: "Mr. Jensen, don't you know that they are now confronting the Japanese army on the Jiangsu side?" Can you imagine what would happen if I had removed these three infantry divisions? At that time, the Japanese will be able to hit Hangzhou within three days. ”

"But Your Excellency, the French side has been in a hurry, and the Germans are pressing forward step by step, and the situation is already extremely dangerous!"

"But we're also in danger!" Su Jin interrupted him: "We have been resisting the Japanese invaders for more than two years and nearly three years, can it be that the French can't even make it for a month now?" ”

Jensen was dumbfounded...... (To be continued.) )
