Lieutenant General Rumanlin's change of attitude quickly put the plan for the transformation of the Maginot Line on the right track.

For example, the repair of various equipment in the Maginot Line, the transformation of fortifications, and the replenishment of supplies, etc., all began to be carried out vigorously.

The progress was even much faster than Qin Chuan and others imagined, because France was basically unaffected by the war...... The fighting between France and Germany lasted only 37 days from beginning to end, and there was no large-scale full-scale battle at all, and then France surrendered.

If there were any casualties, it was that Churchill's "Ballista Program" had some losses at sea.

As a result, France's industry, workers, and skilled personnel were all preserved intact...... This is also the main reason for the rapid rise of France after World War II, and even because France is the base for Germany to produce V1 and fighters, France also leads other European countries in terms of missiles and fighters: during the Falklands naval battle, France had advanced Exocet anti-ship missiles, and it could also develop Rafale fighters on its own.

This advantage is also well reflected in the "Maginot Plan".

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin even summoned the original team that had built the Maginot Line. Of course, this can only be done if Lieutenant General Lu Manlin comes forward to coordinate this.

Then, if there is any damage to the equipment of the Maginot Line, it will be repaired and replaced, and those who want to be renovated only need to tell those skilled workers what to do, and skilled workers and technicians are also called up to serve in the Maginot Line for a long time.

Some equipment does not have parts to replace...... Simple, the original factory was used to start the machine to re-produce, anyway, a large number of equipment was needed in the Maginot Line to spare.

Colonel Slain would come to the field hospital every evening to discuss with Qin Chuan the progress of the Maginot Line.

In fact, not only Colonel Slein, but also Lieutenant General Lu Manlin and Colonel Paul also ran to the field hospital as soon as they had problems and could not decide......

"You know what?" Colonel Slein said to Qin Chuan: "You may have shocked Lieutenant General Lu Manlin!" ”

"Why do you say that?" Qin Chuan asked.

"He's like a different person now!" Colonel Slain replied: "The hunting grounds are closed, the ball is no longer held, and Lieutenant General Rumanlin even got himself a headquarters in the Maginot Line, and he is still living in it for a few days!" This was almost unimaginable before, as Colonel Paul said...... Lieutenant General Lu Manlin has always described those underground fortifications as 'prisoners' cages'! ”

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with me!" Qin Chuan replied: "He realized that only the Maginot Line could protect him, and once he realized this...... He'll do his best to hold on to the Maginot Line! ”

"Maybe you're right, Lieutenant Colonel!" "But it is undeniable that the reason why he believed that the Maginot Line could withstand the Americans and the British was because you led a rabble to defeat several times the number of guerrillas!" ”

"It's nothing!" Qin Chuan replied: "The guerrillas are also a rabble!" ”

"Just because you think it's nothing!" Colonel Slein said: "And in your eyes the guerrillas are also a rabble, but after interrogation, Lieutenant General Rumanlin found that a considerable part of those guerrillas were French soldiers...... You know, after the surrender of France, a considerable part of the soldiers joined the guerrillas, and they could even be considered regular troops! ”

"Is there a regular army in France?" Qin Chuan asked rhetorically.

Colonel Slane couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed with Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan twitched the wound on his shoulder with a smile, and couldn't help but gasp in pain.

Seeing this, Colonel Slane couldn't help but laugh and said, "Lieutenant Colonel, it seems that I should tell you a joke!" ”

"Whatever you want, Colonel!" Qin Chuan replied: "Because the jokes you tell are never funny!" ”

Colonel Slain couldn't help laughing: "Very good, it seems that you are still quite sober, penicillin is really a 'life-saving drug'!" ”

In fact, Qin Chuan knew that Colonel Slein was right, and the change of Lieutenant General Lu Manlin was of course related to the battle in the hunting ground.

It should be said that Lieutenant General Lu Manlin is a contradictory person: he does not have the courage or ability to lead the troops on the battlefield, but he yearns for that kind of life...... So he loved to hunt.

Hunting is not dangerous, but you can also experience the fun of the battlefield to some extent, and you can even imagine those animals as enemies.

If there are no accidents, Lieutenant General Lu Manlin will most likely continue like this, as if living in a dream woven by himself. It wasn't until Qin Chuan fought a real battle in the hunting ground that Lieutenant General Lu Manlin woke up like a dream......

So naturally, Qin Chuan became the idol of Lieutenant General Lu Manlin, which can be seen from Lieutenant General Lu Manlin's almost all decisions to listen to Qin Chuan's opinions.

"We're going to block all the entrances to France!" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin said: "You know, these entrances will become a passage for the enemy to attack the underground fortifications. Then punch the entrance on the other side! ”

"No, we can't do that!" Qin Chuan objected.

"Why?" Lieutenant General Lu Manlin asked puzzled.

"Our defense should never be as passive as the French!" Qin Chuan pointed to the map and said: "We should keep these entrances, so that even if the enemy occupies the surface position, we can drill out of the entrance at any time and sneak attack, and at the same time, the surface troops will also attack them, which is the enemy's biggest headache!" ”

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin couldn't help but let out an "oh", paused, and said, "But...... The enemy may storm the underground fortifications along the entrance! ”

"That's why we're here as an advisor, General!" Qin Chuan replied: "The Gabess defense line we have established in Africa uses a large number of tunnels, and the tunnels there are much more rudimentary than the underground fortifications here. We have implemented a series of complete methods at the mouth of the tunnel, so that the tunnel can cover each other, and at the same time can prevent poison, fire and so on. All we have to do is to modify the tunnel mouths according to the method of the Gabes Line, and then they will become a perfect tunnel fortification! ”

Lieutenant General Lu Manlin couldn't help but nod his head in agreement.

"In addition......" Qin Chuan said, "we can't trust the French, they may have caused some small damage to equipment when the Allies attacked, such as causing problems with electric trains, or blowing up ammunition depots, etc." So, we need to let our maintenance personnel master these techniques! ”

"That's right, Lieutenant Colonel!" Lieutenant General Rumanlin replied: "Of course we can't trust those French!" ”
