Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

On June 6, Gan Molin said: "If we lose this battle, we have no other choice but to negotiate with the other party and accept surrender. On the second day, when the armored troops of the Dragon Army were only 9 kilometers away from Paris , the old commander made a move. He handed Renault a formal written opinion requesting a truce. At the same time at the regular meeting, Gamelin accused the government of being unprepared for war and declared that the French army he saw every day was unprepared The situation surprised him. He declared: "We made a mistake in declaring war on Germany in World War II. We should have taken a more moderate approach to peace instead of facing the fate of defeat now!" "For everyone, this is a signal: the old man has begun to challenge the position of the current French Prime Minister, Renault has become a loner. At this time, another terrible news came.

"Tell your commander, General Lange, to face up to his own strength." Chiang Kai-shek dropped a thick report and said coldly to a French officer standing opposite him: "He came to negotiate with us. Very good, but he must understand that the tens of thousands of people he leads are not enough to withstand us for a day. I have the most elite Chinese army in my hands. To say something arrogant. No one has yet Can beat me." After speaking, he waved his hand, and then said to his adjutant next to him: "Zhang Xuesi, take him out!"

After the French envoy left, Zhang Zuolin came out from behind: "What? We didn't agree?"

"Haha! No!" Chiang Kai-shek said to his father-in-law with a smile: "It's just that they haven't adjusted their positions yet. How many conditions are there for surrendering? We actually want us to allow them to leave the position with their own light weapons. I really do I really don't understand that this is a surrender, not a military parade, with weapons? Do they still want to fight again?" After speaking, he shook his head slightly.

"Haha!" After hearing what his subordinates said, Zhang Zuolin laughed: "How else can we say 'romantic French'? They are born optimists, so it is very normal to make some whimsical actions at this time." !"

After a pause, he suddenly asked: "That's right! Have you heard? Edda has moved, and the Italians have begun to invade southern France! These Italians are only moving now, and it's really time to pick peaches!" After speaking, Zhang Zuolin sighed heavily.

"The Italians? With their fighting power, can they take down the French fortress in the Alps? Edda's calculations are good, but their fighting power! Hey! Just like their macaroni, the middle is empty. A bunch of useless wood can’t do anything!” After speaking, Chiang Kai-shek suddenly raised his head: “That’s right! Have you notified Mr. Feng that after we take Paris, we need someone to preside over the inspection work. Now we are less than 30 kilometers away from Paris. Mr. Feng is our supreme military commander, so he should enjoy this kind of treatment!"

"That's what you need to say! You have been notified!" Zhang Zuolin immediately said: "Mr. Feng also said that a white horse should be prepared for him so that he can ride it to inspect the elite troops of the Dragon Army!"

After a while, he suddenly said: "Jieshi, is there any problem with Paris? It is said that the French have assembled troops there. If the opponent fights defensively in Paris, it may be a bit dangerous to rely on our strength!" Zhang Zuolin proposed own worries.

"It's nothing! Absolutely nothing!" Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand immediately: "The French have no fighting power, and they don't have the courage to destroy this capital with a history of nearly 1000 years. So don't worry, we are ready to wear white gloves Go and hear your troops shout long live!"

On June 6, the entire 9th Infantry Corps of the French Army, which stood in front of the Dragon Army's armored units, surrendered to the Dragon Army.The vanguard of the Dragon Army is only 11 kilometers away from Paris.

On this day, after hearing the news, Gan Molin issued a seemingly powerful order: "The enemy is at the end of his battle, and we have reached the moment of the final decisive battle. Stand firm and block the opponent's way forward!" But , but he didn't think so in his heart.After issuing this order, the commander-in-chief of the French army immediately turned around and found Renault.He said to the French Prime Minister: "The current military situation is very bad, and the army can no longer hold on, so I suggest that the safest way at present is to withdraw all the ministries of the government, leaving only a small number of people to stay." In Paris." After listening to Gan Malin's words, Renault compromised.

At the plenary cabinet meeting held at 4:[-] p.m. that day, Gan Molin formally put forward his proposal. When all the main fighters and centrists pinned their hopes on the old hero of World War I, Pétain, the old handsome The answer was quite shocking.His answer was: "I think Maxim's words are correct, I have nothing to say about it!" So abandoning Paris became a foregone conclusion.

June 6.On this day, the regular morning military meeting of the French High Command was held normally, and Alvirand, director of the French Army Intelligence Center, also attended the meeting. This was the first time he was allowed to participate in such a meeting.Like every day, Kamaling started with a load of bad news.These bad news are nothing more than how many kilometers the dragon army has advanced, the French army continues to retreat, the British army continues to work without effort, the Italians are still wandering around the Alps, and so on.

"Ganmarin!" Renault interrupted the old general's complaint at this time, "Please tell me when the Chinese may arrive in Paris?" As soon as he said that, all the French generals present looked at him in unison. With Ganmalin.

"This!" Gan Molin paused and sighed slowly: "The enemy's armored forces reached the small town of Lasson, only 30 miles away from Paris, last night. If they continue to advance, I think, no In 6 hours the tanks will be on our Champs-Elysées in Paris. Of course, it will probably be later. Because they don't know how thin our actual forces are. They will first divide the troops from the two wings and surround the city Wait for the arrival of the infantry instead of directly attacking. But this way, we can only buy 24 to 36 hours at most." After a while, he slowly took out a letter full of words from his pocket, and then Read aloud: "As the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces and the Commander-in-Chief of the French Army, I have the responsibility and obligation to remind Your Excellency Prime Minister that our army's defense line may collapse at any time, and we should do it well before it collapses." All preparations, especially government departments, should be withdrawn immediately..."

"Wait a minute!" Before Gan Molin finished speaking, Alviron, who could no longer bear it, stood up: "I would like to ask your general, what should we do in Paris? And where should we evacuate?"

"General Alviron!" Gan Molin immediately retorted: "Please pay attention to your identity, you are just a small intelligence chief, not the chief of the general staff or the minister of the army, please don't talk to me in this tone! "

"Ganmarin!" Reynolds said at this time: "Alvirand's question is also what I want to ask, what should we do in Paris? Also, if we abandon Paris, where will we move to?"

"I also want to defend Paris!" Gan Molin spread out his hands: "But we don't have any troops, and now near Paris, the assembled troops plus the police and gendarmerie in the Paris area are at most 1 people. There are only 200 cannons, mortars, and anti-tank bombardments. In addition, there are only 400 light and heavy machine guns. How do you ask me to defend? Moreover, the Chinese troops are only 30 kilometers away. As long as the opponent’s armored forces rush over, we will It's over. Do you still want the other party to turn Paris into another Oslo and be bombed to pieces by thousands of their bombers? What right do you have to let this beautiful city be destroyed by war? What right do you have to let innocent civilians die In the flames of war?" As soon as Gan Molin's words came out, Alviron immediately shut his mouth, although he is a war faction and a soldier, but now he is still a politician, if the responsibility for the destruction of the capital is shifted to him , He is also unwilling to take on the responsibility of being cast aside by all people.

However, this situation only lasted for a few seconds, and he immediately asked his own new question, which was about moving the capital.He still thinks that the Brittany peninsula is the best, and he has transferred all the troops there.However, Gan Molin firmly disagreed.Because he believes that retreating to the Brittany peninsula is suicidal.He believed that the troops should be withdrawn to Marseilles.Because it is very far away from the Chinese, and there can also gradually withdraw troops and governments to North Africa with the help of warships moored in the port.So the two started a heated argument on this issue again.In the end, it was Petain who stood up, and each of them took a step back.Neither retreated to Brittany nor Marseilles, but to Tours, 16 kilometers southwest of Paris.

While Gan Molin and Alviron were still arguing, Chiang Kai-shek's troops moved forward again.At 8 o'clock in the evening, he and his armored convoy arrived at a staging place, a castle of French nobles-Chasselle Castle.

"15 kilometers away from Paris!" Looking at the French road sign outside the castle, Chiang Kai-shek laughed loudly, then he called his superior, and then pulled his adjutant Zhang Xuesi, and the three of them stayed beside the road sign with the castle as the background. I took a group photo.

"Jieshi, it seems that one of our feet has already stepped into the city of Paris." Feeling this road sign, Zhang Zuolin said with emotion: "Now, we are standing at the gate of victory!"

"Yes!" Chiang Kai-shek watched as several guard soldiers loaded a pair of famous paintings and exquisite works of art onto the truck. This was a good habit he had developed since he came to France - collecting famous paintings and works of art.Then he said: "This is the way the world is, whoever is stronger is the ultimate winner. And Paris is just one of our goals. I think we still have a long way to go." Having said that, he looked up Looked at the sky: "Tomorrow must be a good weather."

With the bad news one after another, the last day of the French government in Paris was extremely gloomy.That night, the officials and their families packed up their soft and personal clothes. Then they burned the important documents stored at home, and finally crowded into the car prepared for them by the government and headed for Tours-sur-Roire.

On the same day, French Prime Minister Renault solemnly stated in a telegram to British Prime Minister Churchill: "Your Excellency Churchill and the peace-loving people all over the world. Although the Chinese have approached Paris, we still will not give up freedom and equality. We We will fight in front of Paris, we will fight in the rear of Paris, in short, we will fight to the last man." Although Renault's words are completely imitated at the end of World War II, when the German army approached Paris, French Prime Minister Clemenceau and US President Wilson Those bold words during the conversation.However, he seems to have left out another line in Clemenceau's famous quote, "I will fight in Paris."

Of course, the careful British Prime Minister immediately ordered Foreign Secretary Eden to send a telegram to the "careless" French Prime Minister, but this person had already slipped away.

After getting in the car, the prime minister finally remembered that there was one more important thing to do.Soon, he found Gan Molin who was still doing the final evacuation mobilization at the Paris Convention Center: "General, do we want to guard Paris?"

The commander-in-chief immediately gave a written answer: "Paris has become an undefended city. Of course, in order to stabilize the hearts of the people, we cannot announce it to the outside world now."

Subsequently, Gan Molin made an incredible order, appointing the former commander-in-chief of the Paris gendarmerie, Lieutenant General Pierre Herring, as the commander-in-chief of the Paris Garrison, and concurrently as the commander-in-chief of the newly established Paris Army Group.This group army will be responsible for defending the entire Paris, but Gan Molin did not give Herring many troops. In addition to the 5000 urgently recruited, the strength of an infantry division of the Dragon Army cannot even be compared.

June 6 at 10 o'clock sharp.The main departments of the French government all evacuated the capital Paris.At this time, the whole of France was in chaos. The refugee wave on the front line had begun to spread to the rear. The roads around Paris were crowded with refugees. These people were at a loss as to where their destination was.They only want to go south, because there are no Chinese in the south, no enemy tanks, planes and artillery.

800 people marched chaotically on the roads and trails south of Paris, rushing towards the south like huge waves.There was no organization at all. Cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and horse-drawn carriages were crowded in the crowd, squirming forward like snails.Officials seem to have forgotten their duties.They either fled in front of the inhabitants of their own jurisdiction, or followed.People had no shelter, some of them camped out in tents where they could find, others rested in their cars, and others had nothing to rest in the open air.

Water and food have also become the focus of everyone's competition.At this time, money has become a pile of waste.To buy some water and food, you have to pray to people, and sometimes you even have to grab them.At this time, the soldiers and police who flowed with the team had no way to stop them, because they also had to worry about their own food.

These people kept going south, and only stopped when they encountered vehicles unable to advance or enemy planes strafing, in order to save their poor lives and hid in the air-raid shelter next to them.

The French government and the High Command, who were advancing in the middle of the ranks, saw this terrible sight.They all realized that the suffering French nation was on the verge of disintegration.

June 6 was the first day after the French government moved to Tours.In order to keep this ally behind and continue to fight, Churchill once again visited France in person.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the heads of state of Britain and France met again, but the atmosphere at the venue was neither friendly nor optimistic.As always, Kamaling reported a series of bad news.Of course, the most important thing is the timetable of Chiang Kai-shek's march into Paris.

After a while, the veteran raised the question of whether to continue the war, which was originally raised by Renault.Of course, Churchill said to continue the war.Immediately, the old man opened the chatterbox again.From the British air assistance to continuing to send expeditionary forces to fight, etc., all the demands of this and that were thrown at Churchill.Of course, these requests, especially the two requests to continue to send the air force and the army to fight, were immediately rejected by Churchill.

Because he himself didn't want more British soldiers to walk into the prisoner-of-war camp inexplicably.

Petain, who sat on the side without saying a word, was waiting for this answer from the other party. Soon the old man described a gloomy and hopeless prospect to Churchill, and easily crushed Churchill's encouragement to the French. plan.However, Churchill did not give up. He suggested to Petain that Clemenceau would continue to fight in Paris, but Petain's answer left Churchill, who did not understand military affairs, speechless.His answer was: "At that time, Clemenceau had a sufficient reserve team with your support. But now we not only have no reserve team, but also have no allies." This simple sentence shattered Churchill's attempt to encourage his plan.

Talks continued the next morning, but again without result.During this period, Churchill also learned that the troops of the Dragon Army were only about 10 kilometers away from Paris.So Churchill could only return to London with a heavy heart.

Since the front of the French army has in fact been beaten to pieces, it cannot continue to be maintained.In view of this, de Gaulle issued an order for a general retreat after sending away Churchill, the god of plague.It is required that the three army groups on the front line (including the second army group on the Maginot Line) try not to disperse their forces, and retreat to the lines of Caen, Tours, Middle Roire, and Dijon along the designated direction.

Among them, the Seventh Army will build fortifications on the Persh Heights to block the way to the west.The Paris and Seventh armies held the banks of the Loire between Tours and Cosna.

The Sixth, Fourth and Second Armies blockaded the Rhonne, Seine, and Marne valleys.The Second Army Group withdrew from the Maginot Line and entered positions on the Swiss border.All troops must stick to the defense and stabilize the front line they are defending...

Although the order issued by de Gaulle was decisive, and there seemed to be no problem.However, this is only an ideal plan, not to mention that the predetermined positions are scattered and incoherent, and the troops that should enter the positions often disappear from the soldiers to the commanders.There are only a few isolated pocket positions.These bridgeheads, junctions, and traffic centers were held firmly under the leadership of a few determined commanders.Some cities refused to defend the army because the division commander feared that the war would destroy the city.

Who Controls Ups and Downs: The Third World War (Closed Volume) Chapter 220 and Six Paris—An Undefended City

Compared with the increasingly chaotic French army, the progress of the dragon army seemed easier and easier. On June 6, the 12st Mechanized Corps defeated the last French counterattack.Since then, the main resistance of Chen Jitang's armored group has only been conflicting orders from superiors.The orders Chen Jitang received during these three days can be described as varied.Some asked to go south, some asked to go east, some asked to go south first and then east... Therefore, Chen Jitang could only follow this dizzy order.His method is very simple, first use a mechanized army to the southeast, then a mechanized army to the east, and finally personally lead the 41th mechanized army to advance south along the Marne River.

By the 13th the ministry had reached Saint-Dizier.There they captured a large number of French troops.These prisoners were from the [-]rd Armored Division, the [-]rd North African Division and the [-]th Colonial Division.For these captives, the continuous fighting and escaping has made them exhausted one by one.The logistical cutoff also left most of them starving.At this point, being captured by the Chinese has become a relief.

The Dragon Army in other directions is also making rapid progress. The 41st Mechanized Army in the east is near Le Dick, and Du Yuming's Lightning Army is making faster progress.As the French army retreated across the board, the commander who advocated blitzkrieg finally found the pleasure of beating the dog in the water.In front of the armored forces under his command, the French army was almost defeated.The Chinese tanks drove straight in, and they didn't even bother to pay attention to the scattered French army on the roadside, but left these people to be captured by the following infantry.The force reached the Seine northwest of Troyes.Less than 100 miles from Paris.

At this time, the only one that did not make much action was Chiang Kai-shek's troops.On the 11th this force reached the forest of Dewisay, only 10 kilometers from Paris.Just when he was about to move on, an order from the Supreme Command interrupted them.In the telegram, the Supreme Command asked the bold commander to go slower this time, and then slower, for the simple reason that conquering the capital of France is a great honor for everyone.In this matter, the superior must balance.In addition to the commander Chiang Kai-shek, there must be a highly respected general of the dragon army, so as to achieve a complete balance.Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek's troops could only be ordered to stand still.An attack on Paris is prohibited until the follow-up main force arrives.At the same time, in order to protect the buildings in Paris and maintain the civilization of the soldiers of the Dragon Army, the superiors also prohibited the erection of cannons and air raids on Paris.

Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek proceeded from the overall situation and quickly issued an order. The six divisions in his hands began to line up slowly along both sides of the Seine River and surrounded Paris.

On June 6, Chiang Kai-shek sent a telegram to the French defenders in Paris in the name of the Huben Army Command.In the telegram, Chiang Kai-shek claimed to send a liaison officer with a white flag to discuss taking over Paris.At the end of the message, he nakedly threatened: "For the sake of the 14 million citizens of Paris, I think you should accept our terms. I don't want the tragic scene of World War II to repeat itself over the beautiful Paris..."

However, since they could not find the radio call sign of the other party's station, the Chinese signal soldiers had to send the telegram to the police station in Paris and asked them to forward it on their behalf.

General Henri Fernand Danz, commander of the Paris region who was ordered to stay in Paris, fell into deep contemplation after seeing this telegram.After a while, he raised his head and looked at Vuldanov, the head of the Paris Police Headquarters, who sent a telegram, "Do you think what Chiang Kai-shek said in the telegram is true? They will really attack Paris? At this point, Danz flicked the narrow telegraph with his hands vigorously.

Vuldanov took the telegram handed over by the other party, looked at it carefully, and then said in a low voice: "I personally think that the other party is not joking. They are very likely to be serious!"

After a pause, Vuldanov continued: "What's more, I heard that Chiang Kai-shek was moody. He led the Dragon Army and directed the Nagasaki massacre a few years ago. If we don't deal with it carefully, the other party may It will go crazy. At that time, not only us, but also Paris will be completely destroyed by the other party. So we must be cautious and cautious about this matter."

After listening to the other party's words, Danz raised his head: "So you think we should give up Paris? But we haven't received any orders! If we just give up Paris like this, I may be sent to a military court by my own people .” After speaking, Danz spread out his hands, looking rather helpless.

"No! No, no!" Vuldanov waved his hand immediately: "General, things are not as bad as you imagined. In my opinion, the other party is just making a trial. Because they should have rushed into the Paris, but until now they just surrounded it from all sides and did not attack. So, I think they may be waiting for something. Maybe waiting for us to surrender so that they can take the city without breaking a sweat. Maybe they are Waiting for orders from superiors. Even they are still waiting for super weapons for siege. In short, we still have time. , and don’t agree to the other party quickly, just drag it there. For the rest, we should seize the time to communicate with the headquarters. At least we need to know the meaning of the headquarters, whether to defend or give up Paris. For us, It’s not us who ultimately make the decision, it’s the head office, so pushing things to head office is the best thing to do at the moment.”
