Chapter 529: Surrender (2900 votes plus more)

"In this battle, the British and French allied forces will undoubtedly lose. Even Britain and France have no chance of winning in this battle. But why can't those politicians see this at all? They If we want to continue the war, it is clear that we are going to die!" Admiral Allenby thought.

??In his opinion, those politicians are really despicable and shameless. Anyway, it was these soldiers who died in the war, and their lives would not be threatened. Therefore, those politicians will always demand that the war continue.

?? "No, we can't be at the mercy of those politicians. No matter what, I have to live." Admiral Allenby thought.

??Although, the British government declared to their generals that the Royal Navy is still making preparations to defeat the German Navy in future naval battles. But Admiral Allenby scoffed at this. He didn't think the Royal Navy was capable of defeating the German Navy. After all, in the last naval battle, the Royal Navy had already suffered a crushing defeat. What was lost was not only those capital ships, but also a large number of elite officers and soldiers, as well as the confidence of the troops. Under such circumstances, even if the Royal Navy has obtained a large number of warships from the Americans, so what? The Royal Navy's chances of winning are still very low. As for the French Navy and the Italian Navy, Admiral Allenby ignored them. He believes that the navies of these two countries are much weaker than the Royal Navy, and naturally they are even less qualified to confront the German navy.

??Thinking of this, Admiral Allenby believed that Britain and France had absolutely no chance of winning in this war.

??If you want to survive, there seems to be only one choice, and that is to surrender to Germany. In the Battle of Paris, although the losses of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force were not small, there are still hundreds of thousands of people. If you can surrender to the Germans, this will greatly promote the Germans' rapid occupation of Paris. Among other things, the German army can easily occupy all of the area south of the Seine River defended by the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force. The rest of the northern part of Paris occupied by the French army could not last long under the siege of the German army.

??So, Admiral Allenby believes that the Germans will definitely accept his surrender. He can even take this opportunity to negotiate some terms with Germany. For example, keep him safe. After the war, he was allowed to return to England and so on. He believed that the German side would never reject his small conditions.

??After thinking about all this, Admiral Allenby planned to act. He first summoned his adjutant and told his adjutant everything.

??The adjutant was surprised, but immediately expressed his willingness to obey Admiral Allenby's orders. After all, for the adjutant, he naturally hoped to survive. Anyway, the order to surrender was given by Admiral Allenby, and he was just executing the order. If there is anything wrong, Canal will not blame him.

??That night, Admiral Allenby summoned several commanders and all division commanders of the 4th Army of the British Expeditionary Force at the headquarters. These dozen army commanders and division commanders rushed to the headquarters from their own defense zone.

??Everyone is a little unclear, so I don't know why Admiral Allenby will summon them at this time. After all, the current war is entering the most critical stage. The German attack was fierce, and their losses were mounting. If you are not careful, you may cause greater losses. Under such circumstances, these front-line generals often cheered up to deal with the German attack.

"Gentlemen, the current battle situation is already very unfavorable to us. After only three days of fighting, we have suffered heavy losses. The losses of the French are no less than ours. What do you think about this battle?" Ai Admiral Lumby asked.

??These generals looked at each other one by one. I don’t know what Admiral Allenby meant by saying that.

Seeing that no one spoke, Admiral Allenby continued: "The Germans used a lot of heavy artillery and planes to bomb Paris, which made our defense line become dilapidated. We suffered heavy losses from the German shelling and bombing. On the other hand, the Germans were able to win the victory at the lowest cost with strong fire support."

?? "General, we are in Paris, and we are indeed unable to stop the German attack. The current efforts are just lingering." A military commander sighed. We are not fools, as army generals, we can undoubtedly distinguish clearly about the situation in front of us.

??The other generals also nodded repeatedly. In fact, they are also very negative about this battle. If they didn't have to obey orders, they would not be willing to defend Paris with the French.

?? "Everyone, since everyone thinks that if you stick to Paris, you will die, and there is no chance of winning. Then why don't we think of other ways?" Admiral Allenby said.

??Many generals were stunned immediately. Some smart people seemed to have guessed Admiral Allenby's intentions, so that they looked at Admiral Allenby with shock in their eyes. After all, Allenby is the commander of the 4th Army of the Expeditionary Force, the general of the army! Given his position and military rank, it would be too unbelievable if he surrendered. Of course, it is undoubtedly understandable to do anything for one's own life.

?? "General, what do you mean?" a lieutenant general asked.

"Gentlemen, for your lives. I don't think I can fight any longer. We can surrender to the Germans. Since the battle is doomed, why should there be so many fearless casualties? Instead of letting A large number of officers and soldiers are going to die, it is better to surrender to the Germans so that everyone can live." Admiral Allenby directly exposed his intentions.

?? "Surrender?" The generals talked a lot.

?? "Everyone, I know that if you ask everyone to surrender, your honor will be damaged. However, it is up to you to choose whether you want honor or live." Admiral Allenby continued.

??The generals of the British army hesitated for a while, but then each of them expressed their willingness to obey the orders of General Allenby. Then, the meaning is undoubtedly obvious, they chose the latter between honor and life.

?? Admiral Allenby was very satisfied with the performance of these generals. Although he had arranged some backhands before, it would undoubtedly be the best if he didn't need it.
