Twenty kilometres southwest of Epernay, there is a small town called Montmirai, which has been taken over by the army. The French army of an infantry division www.biquge.info Pen, Fun, and Pavilion were stationed here, and the whole city was under martial law.

The residents who lived here looked in amazement at the soldiers patrolling the streets. Some bold women even took the initiative to flatter those tall soldiers.

Because of the invasion of the German army, the French army had suffered a series of defeats in the early stage of the war, so that France had to increase mobilization step by step. Most of the adult men either joined the army or were produced in the arsenals, so that the number of adult men in French society was not very large. This undoubtedly makes the French women who are born empty and lonely. They seem to have forgotten that their husbands were fighting the Germans on the front lines, and that they were cuckolding their husbands in the rear.

Several cars drove into the heavily fortified town hall, where an older soldier, accompanied by a group of stellar generals, entered the town hall. This elderly soldier is none other than the famous Joseph? Marshal Chauffeur, who was now the commander-in-chief of the French army. It's just that because of a series of crushing defeats of the French army on the battlefield, his position as commander-in-chief has been shaken. If it weren't for the fact that the Germans took the initiative to stop the offensive last year, and the French army failed once or twice, maybe his commander would have been replaced.

The group went directly to the conference room of the city hall, and at this moment, in the conference room, there were more generals. Most of the generals of the Anglo-French army on the Marne front appeared here at this moment.

"The Commander-in-Chief has arrived!" When Marshal Xia Fei entered the conference room, there was immediately a loud announcement from the staff officer.

Suddenly, the sound of the generals in the conference room talking to each other disappeared immediately, replaced by the sound of chairs being slammed. A cadre of generals stood up one by one and saluted Marshal Xiafei.

"Well, let's all sit down!" Marshal Xia Fei said kindly.

The generals all sat down neatly, and everyone looked at Marshal Xia Fei. As everyone knows, the situation is now very critical, and large-scale battles are on the verge of breaking out. For the Anglo-French forces, there will be a bitter battle ahead.

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to the information we have received, the Germans have re-completed their preparations. Their offensive will most likely start soon, either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. In short, this time is not long. However, I would like to tell you that in the last year we were able to withstand the German attack. This time, we were able to fend off their attacks and defeat them in one fell swoop! Marshal Xia Fei said confidently.

Marshal Xia Fei's confident appearance seemed to have infected the other generals of the British and French forces, and they were also full of confidence in the next battle one by one. They seem to have forgotten that they had just suffered a crushing defeat last year, and that they were almost knocked down by the Germans even to the capital. Perhaps the French are by nature!

"Although, the Germans cost us a lot last year. However, with the support of us and our British allies, we managed to withstand their attack. After more than half a year of preparation, the total strength of the Anglo-French army has now exceeded three million. The Germans, on the other hand, still only had more than two million troops. In terms of troops, we have a greater advantage than the Germans. In terms of armament, we are also in no way inferior to the Germans. In addition, we have built strong fortifications on the south bank of the Marne in the past six months. So, if the Germans wanted to break through our fortifications, it would be almost impossible. We'll soon see that they're going to hit their heads on our lines and bleed. When our line of defense has exhausted the living forces of the Germans, we can launch a counterattack, defeat the Germans in one fell swoop, drive them out of our land, and even hit the Germans in one fell swoop, and capture their emperor and crown prince, send them to the gallows, and make them pay for what they have done! Marshal Xia Fei continued.

I have to admit that Marshal Xia Fei's speech was very encouraging, which made the generals of the British and French forces present at the meeting enthusiastically listen to it one by one, as if the combat effectiveness of the French Army had been doubled all of a sudden, and the German Army could be easily defeated.

However, the really senior generals of the Anglo-French alliance were not as easy to deceive as those low-level generals. They clearly remember how much damage the Germans inflicted on them on the battlefield last year. This time, after half a year, the German army made a comeback after careful preparations. You don't have to think about it to know how much their strength has improved. Although the strength of the Anglo-French alliance has also increased a lot. But whether they could resist the German attack, they were even more uncertain.

Not to mention the current international situation, which is very unfavorable for the Entente. With the defeat of the Royal Navy by the German Navy in a decisive battle at sea, Germany seemed to be only one step away from winning the war. As long as the Germans defeated the Anglo-French forces on the battlefield in France, they would be able to achieve the final victory.

This also made the generals of the British and French coalition undoubtedly feel great pressure. If this time it fails again, the Entente will probably end in defeat in this war.

The people present here are undoubtedly high-level figures in Britain and France, and they are all people with great power. If Britain and France had lost the war, they would have been finished. Therefore, even if it is a desperate fight, they all hope to win the war. Anyway, it was not them who really went to the battlefield and the Germans were desperate, but those ordinary failures, and their safety could undoubtedly be guaranteed.

"Generals, you are the bravest men of the French Republic and the British Empire, and I hope that in this battle you will be able to show your bravery and lead your troops to resist the Germans and defeat them! Victory belongs to the French Empire, to the British Empire! Marshal Xia Fei continued.

"Hooray! Long live the French Republic! Long live the British Empire! The generals all roared as if they were about to tear down the roof of the conference room.

Inspired by Marshal Xia Fei, these generals were motivated to fight to the death with the Germans. Their fighting spirit will also inspire their subordinates and ordinary soldiers, so that they can fight the Germans on the battlefield.
