On the evening of the third day, the backroom meeting took place as usual.

"Look at this, Anas's detailed battle report has arrived." Leothai has first-hand information.

Qin Zhiyuan, who had just entered the door, hung his coat on the coat rack behind the door, wearing only a shirt. The weather has warmed up in April, and there is no need for heavy trench coats anymore. The clothes that were ordered last year are only now ready, and Qin Zhiyuan is now also wearing a suit with exquisite workmanship and excellent texture, if you don't look at the skin color. It really looks like a Westerner.

"Oh, look at this, the commander of the German Sixth Army, General Ludwig von Falkenhausen, has been dismissed, and it seems that Ludendorff is very unhappy with him." Qin Zhiyuan was concerned about the personnel transfer in Germany.

Germany, Great Britain, France are all very well infiltrated with each other, and if the French have no secrets to the Germans, then the Germans have not many secrets to the French. Because of this, it is difficult for these countries to carry out any covert operations, and almost all battles are hard-nosed battles, and there is a serious lack of tactical suddenness.

"Yes, Ludwig did not implement Ludendorff's new tactics, but still used the same tactics of Verdun and the Somme, and used crowd tactics and continuous fronts to deal with the Canadians' attack, so the Germans lost Vimy Ridge. In areas other than Vimy Ridge, the British did not bargain for anything. The expression on Leotay's face was indescribably relieved or heavy.

The relationship between the British and the French was delicate, that is, they were wary of each other and interdependent, so Leotey's attitude towards the English was that he did not want the British to achieve a major victory, nor did he want the British to collapse quickly. In short, the British just need to keep up with the rhythm of the French.

This is also a serious problem that has existed since the beginning of the war, that is, there is no good cooperation between Britain and France, and now with the addition of the Americans, the situation is even more complicated. There is already a voice calling for the establishment of a "joint command", which everyone agrees with, but there is no consensus on the selection of the "commander-in-chief of the coalition forces."

"Ludendorff looks like he has a lot of ideas!" Qin Zhiyuan was interested.

In those areas where the British had not made progress, when the British began to attack, the Germans would abandon their positions in the face of the superior strength of the British, and then lure the British into a predetermined battlefield, inflicting heavy blows on the British with artillery and machine guns that had already been determined to shoot the elements, after which the Germans would launch a counterattack to recapture the positions they had previously abandoned.

This tactic is a new tactic that Ludendorff has implemented since he took office, and it is completely different from the previous hard fight of Falkingham. From another point of view, Ludendorff's tactics and Qin Zhiyuan's "avoiding the real and making the virtual" have a fight, which aroused Qin Zhiyuan's strong fighting spirit.

Fighting a war, just like playing chess, always has to "meet the opponent in chess will meet the good material".

"It is indeed very methodical, his tactics are very flexible, he is not confined to the gains and losses of one time and one place, and concentrates superior forces to annihilate the enemy's living forces, such an opponent is always a headache." Foch agreed with Qin Zhiyuan.

Since Julie wore the bracelet given by Qin Zhiyuan and dangled in front of Foch a few times, Foch's attitude towards Qin Zhiyuan was very different from before. The current Foch treats Qin Zhiyuan as harshly as an elder in private, but in the resolution of major matters, Foch and Qin Zhiyuan maintain a high degree of consistency.

This feeling made Qin Zhiyuan feel very useful.

Because of family reasons, Qin Zhiyuan has not enjoyed much fatherly love, and from Foch, Qin Zhiyuan can feel the magnanimity and generosity of his father.

Not only for Qin Zhiyuan, but also for Foch to treat others, and even to the relationship between countries. Foch has been so praised for this trait that it has now been proposed that Foch should assume the position of "Commander-in-Chief of the Coalition Forces" in the planned "Joint Command".

"I have a hunch that our Mr. Nivelle is in big trouble." Qin Zhiyuan was not optimistic about the upcoming Sherman Dadam offensive.

The British offensive had been going on for three days, but Nivelle was still carrying out what seemed to be an endless artillery bombardment, and it seemed that Nivelle would not be engaged in ground forces without all the shells had been exhausted.

Even if the ground forces are invested, what awaits Nivelle will be a crushing defeat, and it is hoped that Nivelle will carefully read the British battle report at Arras, otherwise the French will pay a heavier price than the British. However, with Qin Zhiyuan's understanding of Niveler, I am afraid that Nivelle will not take it seriously, and even if he does, he will only watch the jokes of the British, and will not learn any lessons from them.

"My factory has been working overtime, but it still can't keep up with the consumption on the front line, and if it continues like this, the workers will be exhausted." Old Renault sighed faintly.

The Renault plant is reaching its limits, workers are getting tired, the time they can concentrate is getting shorter, and the factory has changed from two to three shifts. This does not change the fact that the workers are too tired, and there is no other way to change the status quo than to increase the number of workers.

On the other hand, this has also improved Qin Zhiyuan's status in the eyes of the old Renault, who has already asked Qin Zhiyuan for more manpower, and promised that the content of the training is no longer limited to manufacturing. Qin Zhiyuan readily agreed that if more Chinese can enter the field of R&D, then this will be the biggest benefit for Qin Zhiyuan.

"We always have to suffer before we think of a different approach." Clemenceau was also helpless.

Clemenceau's "Prison Men" sells 100,000 copies a day, which is the only way for him to make a voice now, and Raymond will never use Clemenceau unless Paul Panroe proves unable to save France.

"If we had done something, would we have taken Paul out of office sooner?" Old Renault's brain was open.

Old Renault was referring to the manipulation of arms supplies, and if there was a logistical problem, then Niviler would definitely not win; If something goes wrong with Nivelle, Paul will step down, and it's a domino chain relationship.

The old Renault did not understand military affairs, but judging from the battle report, if the tactics were opposed, then Nivelle had the possibility of winning, which was what the old Renault did not want to see. The old Renault was a businessman, and in order to win, the old Renault could use any method.

But the elder Renault's words obviously aroused the displeasure of Foch and Leotai, and as soon as the old Renault finished speaking, Foch frowned, and Leotah's eyes widened. Both of them are soldiers, and what they hate most is that they charge in front of them, but someone stabs them in the back.

"Nope! In a pig's eye! Even if I never get ahead, we can't get in the way of it at such a time. "Clemenceau is firm.

Although he was a politician, Clemenceau was also a patriotic politician, and he could use small means to defeat his political opponents, but he would never harm the interests of the country, and perhaps it was because of this that Clemenceau won the respect of Foch and Leotey.
