May 10, 1940, 04:30.

Sunday.

As usual, after a pleasant Saturday night, most Europeans were still resting in bed, and the prepared German troops suddenly began to attack.

The first to cross the border was the Luftwaffe. They carried out violent bombings on airports, railway hubs, areas and cities in countries such as France, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.

The air strikes destroyed hundreds of aircraft from various countries that were still at the airport, fully grasped air supremacy, laying the foundation for the subsequent victory.

At 05:30, German ground troops launched a large-scale attack on the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg on a more than 300 kilometers of fronts between the North Sea and the Maginot Line, opening the prelude to the Western European battle.

Luxembourg surrendered on the same day.

The Netherlands surrendered 4 days later.

In less than a week, the rule of the Kingdom of Belgium was also shaky.

As a result, the German army opened a breakthrough in the Ardennes area, bypassed the Maginot Line, which had spent a lot of materials and money, and prepared to launch a second phase of the offensive on the French inland.

In fact, after the blitzkrieg attack on Poland in 1939, the Germans targeted France, which claimed to have the strongest army in Europe, and vowed to save the shame of the European war that year. The German Command also promptly formulated and drafted a combat plan to invade France.

Britain and France knew this well and made a lot of preparations for it.

For example, a large number of intelligence personnel were sent to investigate the movements of the German front-line troops, instigate senior German officials, and achieved good results.

According to information from all aspects, the top leaders of the two countries agreed a few days before the war that after occupying the Netherlands, Germany's attack on France would pass through Belgium and the Netherlands, and would unfold from the north, rather than in the extremely rugged Ardennes.

Countless generals with outstanding achievements said that the German chariots could never pass through the complex forests in the local area, and they dared to guarantee their lives.

Soon after the war began, the French and British Expeditionary Force abandoned the good positions originally built along the French border and advanced to the "pre-designed" war zone, completely falling into the trap set by the German army.

The Germans used a perfect strategy to trick their opponents into applause, and their first show of hideous mechanized legion sharpened their swords.

The result was obvious that the British and French troops, which were completely unprepared, were about to collapse, a large number of living forces were eliminated, and the German door to Paris was completely opened.

During this battle, the French army performed poorly and unbelievable that it was the most powerful European army that fought bloody battles with the Germans on the Somme.

The well-equipped French soldiers directly chose to surrender in the face of the German attack, without any courage to resist. The battlefield was full of French troops with their hands raised high.

The situation in Europe does not exist in isolation. The failure of Britain and France has also affected the situation in East Asia. Both China and Japan are full of hope for the future.

Seeing Britain and France so vulnerable, the Japanese naturally looked at the colonies of the two countries in Asia, completely ignoring the gap in national strength, and running towards the abyss of the monarch and lord.

The mountain city also celebrated each other. Everyone knows that the alliance between Germany and Japan is a matter of time, which means that Britain and France have become potential ally of the Republic of China.

The failure of the British and French wars was just the Germans who took the lead in the sneak attack. When they recovered, they would definitely give Germany a painful blow.

Once the opponent blocks the German attack, the Japanese who collude with them will become the second target of attack, and the Guo army will naturally join the British and French camps.

With the help of Western powers, it was only a matter of time before the government defeated the Japanese. The surrender arguments that permeated the government and the military were wiped out, and the hardliners against Japan gradually occupied the top.

But what is surprising is that as early as the 9th day after the war started, that is, on May 19, the French and British Expeditionary Forces began to prepare to run away.

The retreat officially began on May 26 and ended on June 4, which took nine days, and a total of 340,000 people retreated from Dunkirk to the UK.

The United Kingdom, France, Belgium and the Netherlands simultaneously used more than 800 ships of various ships, including small ships such as fishing boats, passenger ships, yachts and lifeboats.

In just 10 days, this unprecedented "Dunkirk fleet" rescued hundreds of thousands of troops from the death trap, and finally left some capital for Britain and France.

Finally, after 42 days of battle, the French government surrendered to Germany on June 22 and declared Paris an unfortified city.

France, gone ~

The "strong generals" who shouted to fight to Tokyo were stunned. The top leaders and the people began to discuss rescuing the country in a curve. The capricious and volatile way was laughable.

The Military Control Commission is very calm about the right and wrong of the outside world. Whether it is war or harmony, intelligence work is always indispensable.

Instead of wasting your energy to study wars thousands of miles away, it is better to take this opportunity to repair and wait for the future war.

One morning at the end of June, Dai Chunfeng and Zuo Chong were sitting on the sofa, drinking tea and chatting, while listening to the German Haitong News Agency news report forwarded by Zhongzhong News Agency on the radio.

"May 10th, perhaps the most memorable war in German history began, and we defeated the enemy's forward in a few days.

France collapsed, Belgium and the Netherlands had been captured, and the remnants of the British expeditionary forces had been expelled from the European continent, dragging their troops and fleeing in panic."

What was heard from the speaker was a speech by a bearded man after surrendering in France. The content of the speech was translated into Chinese by the Central News Agency in order to allow listeners who do not understand German to grasp the situation in Europe.

Zuo Chong was happy after listening to it. He remembered the discussion with Lao Dai after receiving the news on May 10. He put down the teacup and pointed at the radio and said to the other party.

"Teacher, the student said at the beginning of the war that the speed of the German army's advancement was faster than the speed of the French government's surrender. You believe it now.

The French, the sacred bones in the tomb, destroyed their blood and courage in the last European war and also broke their bones. This result is normal."

"Yes, who would have thought that the French army would be like this..."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Dai Chunfeng smiled bitterly, and then, who has always been serious, even told Zuo Chong a French joke.

"I'm afraid that the German shells had already raised their hands before they landed. Be careful. Those who want to defeat the Japanese by Britain and France are probably going to be disappointed."

"Yes, teacher, you're right."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Chong was so happy that he leaned back and forth. He couldn't see that Lao Dai's mouth was quite damaged.

Write it down, and you may be able to make up a complete collection of French jokes in the future.

Dai Chunfeng laughed after saying that, and after taking a few sips of tea, he thought that the Germans suddenly stopped pursuing, which gave the British and French troops a chance to escape.

He was puzzled about this matter and could not guess why the German army was acting like this, so he asked Zuo Chong's opinion.

Zuo Chong thought carefully for a moment. The German army did not launch the final attack when it was about to win. Later generations had many speculations about this, such as logistical pressure, interference from the fat marshal of the Luftwaffe, etc.

But just thinking about it is very far-fetched. If you beat up most of the German troops in Europe, can't even support the last few dozen kilometers? This is impossible.

The fat Marshal did not have the energy to decide the overall combat plan of the German army. If he could do it, he would probably have to meet the father of the storm.

As for the false information from British and French spies, the Germans believed that the British had a large number of troops gathering, thus forcing the Germans to stop pursuing even more unreliable.

After the success of one battle, thousands of bones were bleak. The commander would not care about how many people died, but only care about whether the goal was achieved. If a bearded man was determined to kill him, ten thousand pieces of false information would be useless.

What's more, it is more difficult to "create" an army without existence out of thin air, which is greater than expected. Britain and France have this ability and have held a celebration banquet in Berlin long ago.

So, there is only one answer - a certain beard doesn't want to.

The reason may be that the other party is afraid that the losses from Britain and France will be too great, which will over-incite the Americans and Red and Russians.

Or he was worried that the front-line officers would be more capable than the master, so that they would not lose their job. After all, he has not yet completely controlled the terrifying war machine of the German army.

This happened in history. Song Gaozong recalled Yue Fei with thirteen gold medals. Is it really because of something wrong? Anyone who understands it?

In short, the German army stopped near Dunkirk, and could only be ordered from a certain beard, and there would be no second possibility.

Zuo Chong expressed his analysis, and Dai Chunfeng nodded frequently.

This is similar to his idea. Political pharmacy is like a toilet. Everyone thinks it is dirty, but they can't live without it.

If he was the German leader, he would be more anxious than the other party to see his general defeating his old enemy and making unparalleled achievements. No one could tolerate his own power being taken away.

The master and apprentice talked for a few words, Zuo Chong's face turned aside and asked Dai Chunfeng how to place the peacekeeping preparation team in Baigong Mansion.

Shortly after Mark disappeared, the government interrupted negotiations with the Japanese, which was related to the fact that the local party sent a mourning Medton book (ultimatum) to someone.

The representatives stationed in Shancheng in the northwest warned the State Government that if they do not stop peacekeeping, they will make the matter public to the whole country.

Someone had no choice but to agree and ordered Minister Song to terminate the negotiations and return to the country immediately. He pinched his nose and reiterated his determination to unite against Japan in the newspaper.

For this reason, Xu Wenzeng was called to the official residence several times and received several "instructions".

If the Germans had not attacked France and the negotiations with the Japanese were no longer important, Xu Enzeng would have been in danger this time.

I have to say that this guy is indeed a bit lucky.

The peace talks stopped, and the preparations in the rear were also suspended for many days. The preparations were eating and sleeping in Baigongguan every day, and they were almost sick.

When Dai Chunfeng heard Zuo Chong's request, he frowned and did not answer directly, and turned the topic to the Central Committee and Xu Enzeng.

"Be careful, the Central Government has an unshirkable responsibility for the leak of the peace talks. However, Xu was lucky and happened to encounter a war between Germany and France, so the Chairman did not investigate in depth.

You must complete the subsequent processing as soon as possible. You cannot give the criticized person a polite manner. By the way, tell Xu Enzeng's people not to talk too much, and people cannot be lucky forever."

There are now three parties in Baigongguan, the Military Control Commission, and the Central Commission for Peacekeeping Affairs and the preparation team for peace talks. Lao Dai did not mention the third party throughout the whole process, just as the other party did not exist at all.

Sometimes, without an attitude is an attitude.

The meaning of these three keywords: handling, criticizing, and verbalizing is even more obvious. Some people don’t want to see these people anymore, and want them to “shut up”.
