Chapter 93: Teasing the French Army

"Didn't the newspaper say that he advanced more than 600 kilometers in five days and six nights, and after the start of the second phase of the French campaign, that Rommel broke through the Weygand defense line painstakingly managed by the French with only one charge, and you know later, Rommel rushed to Paris, the capital of France, in one night."

"This is a commander like a god of war! Why can't we Jews have such a great general? ”

"You just dream! We Jews have lost our country for more than 2,000 years, how can there be a general like Rommel who can fight well, it is absolutely impossible, we do not have this condition and foundation. ”

The Jews who said this are still relatively rational, the growth of a general is not achieved overnight, and it is difficult to become a famous general without foundation and conditions.

"Do you know how many people Rommel took prisoner in this French campaign? Remember that Rommel commanded only an armored division. ”

"How many French troops can be captured by one division! One or two thousand people will reach the sky! ”

"Guess ......"

A few Jews began to speculate:

"50,000"

"Three thousand"

"Forty thousand"

"You guys are really, didn't you just say that Rommel was a general like a god of war? How can I take this point of capture, let me tell you, Rommel captured 200,000 French troops in one division, a full 200,000! ”

"Damn, even if it is twenty pigs, running all over the mountains, it is impossible for a division to catch them in five or six days!"

This brother said that there is art, it is easy to catch people, but it is really difficult to catch pigs, when you arrest people, he will surrender, and he will obediently follow you to the prisoner of war camp. And the pig will not surrender, it will not go with you, it will only flee more desperately, how do you catch it, you can only shoot and eat meat, and it should be sacrificed to the teeth.

"Do you know how many weapons and equipment that Rommel captured with just one division?"

"That's definitely a lot, we don't know how much, let's talk about it."

"Tell you! Don't be scared to death, Rommel captured in the first quarter of the French campaign, the 7th Panzer Division alone captured more than 195,400 British and French troops, captured 458 tanks and armored vehicles, destroyed more than 350 tanks, captured more than 5,000 other vehicles, and captured a mountain of weapons and ammunition. ”

"Wow...... With so many captures, hasn't the French army become a transport captain? ”

"How can the French overcome the enemy?"

"It needs to be under the command of women." (Referring to Joan of Arc)

"Because their king is a foreigner." (Napoleon was Corsican.) οΌ‰

"Haha...... Ha ha. ”

"Why are there so many boulevards in France?"

"You don't know that, because the Germans like to march in the shade of trees."

"What to call a hundred thousand Frenchmen who raise their hands at the same time?"

"The French Army, of course."

"I'm laughing to death, you're too funny, look at me."

"Why did the French give the Statue of Liberty to the United States?"

"Because she only had one arm raised, France needed the Statue of Liberty with both hands raised, so they gave the Statue of Liberty to the United States, which had only one hand up...... Hehe, I'm so witty! ”

"Why do the French always get a lot of votes in the League of Nations?"

"Because they always have their hands up."

"Do you know what Maginot means in German?"

"I know, I know...... Welcome, welcome, warm welcome...... I'm more witty than the guy just now, hehe? ”

"You witty yarn, keep coming."

"Why are the French afraid of war?"

"God, of course the French are afraid of war, because they have not won a single war, except for the war led by women."

"You know what? What did the mayor of Paris say to the German army when the German army entered the city? ”

"I really know this, the mayor of Paris asked General Rommel, the great General Rommel, does he need 100,000 tables?"

"Which country is the army that loves to brag in peacetime and becomes impotent at critical moments?"

"French Army"

"Haha......"

"Gentlemen, rest time, start the retreat work, we have to work overtime tonight, we still have a lot of compatriots to retreat."

"Understood."

……

There are more than 300 people coming to the town hall of Paris City Hall today, including famous arms dealers from all over the world and ambassadors of many countries.

What are these people doing at the HΓ΄tel de Ville? Because Rommel was going to hold a weapons auction here.

You must know that the total number of British and French troops is more than 6 million, and how many weapons and equipment are needed to arm these more than 6 million people! It can be said that it is too much to count, and now these weapons and equipment have become trophies of the German army.

This amount of weapons and equipment, in addition to the German army's retention, except for the damaged ones, there is still a lot left, and the light weapons alone are piled up in several large military camps.

These weapons and equipment are all money! It is also a waste to put it anywhere, of course, Rommel has to monetize these weapons and equipment, special light weapons, they are different from the caliber of the German army, these light weapons must be sold, and the logistics of the German army cannot support a war of multiple calibers.

The people who came to this conference, of course, came to buy weapons and equipment, and the world at this time was in an era of extreme turmoil, and the outbreak of World War II made all countries find ways to strengthen their armed forces.

This era is the golden age of arms dealers, as long as you have weapons and equipment, you don't have to worry about finding buyers. Whether it is bought by the state or by a private person, Rommel is the one who comes, and as long as you can pay a deposit of $100,000, you are eligible to participate in the arms auction.

The auction will be supervised by a dedicated auctioneer, but Rommel is the supervisor, and the opening remarks of the meeting should still be made by him, the supervisor.

Rommel reorganized his military appearance and calmly stepped onto the podium. When the people below saw Rommel walk up to the podium, they immediately fell silent, and at this time, Rommel already had an invisibly kingly spirit, which of course was the temperament of commanding thousands of troops.

"Gentlemen, ladies and ladies and friends of the press

Hello everyone;

I am the French Governor Rommel, and I warmly welcome you to this auction of weapons and equipment, which will auction 3 million rifles, 250,000 machine guns, more than 500 artillery pieces of various calibers, and 140 light tanks......

After I finished speaking, if there is any problem, even if I ask, I know everything. ”

He Fengshan, who was the Chinese consul general in Vienna, was also in the crowd at this time, and when he learned that Germany was going to auction weapons and equipment in Paris, France, he immediately sent a telegram to Lao Chiang.

China's war of resistance at this time was already in extreme difficulty, as we all know, China's industrial base is weak, and the annual output of steel is only 50,000 tons.

And Japan has reached a million tons, the war is fought with steel, and the Chinese can only defend their homeland with the Great Wall of flesh and blood.

[Happy weekend, brothers, the votes are also abandoned and voted, and the leaves are gone. 】
