Chapter 498 The Plan to Save the UK

War is the catalyst of science and technology. Under Cyric's journey, he pays more attention to the development of science and technology. He knows how much it will promote the progress of war.

Moreover, Germany already has sufficient funds to carry out research and development in all aspects, especially related to weapons research and development, and spare no effort.

Just when Cyric was visiting the GEMA factory late at night and honoring a large number of scientific researchers for the appearance of the transistor, on the other side of the strait, it was also sleepless.

Bad news, one after the other.

For the first time, it can be said that it was caught off guard. It was a sneak attack by the Germans, and now what?

First at night, during the night battle between the two sides, several ships were beaten up. Then, during the day, they caught up with the German warships. As a result, more than a dozen warships surrounded and beat one of them, but none of them knocked the other down. On the contrary , after the opponent's main force arrived, they destroyed the main force of their own fleet.

When Scapa Flow was attacked, the British main fleet was seriously damaged. The attack was all mobilized from various colonies. It was easy to get it together, and a decent naval battle with the Germans could be launched. It was so miserable.

With the destruction of warships, it can be said that it is impossible for the British Navy to maintain its maritime hegemony.

"It's all a conspiracy by the Germans. They actually stir the emotions of the American people. Otherwise, we could have obtained some warships from the United States." Colonial Affairs Secretary Aiden said.

Now, even if the British mainland tightens their belts and hurries to build warships, it is too late. The construction of a warship takes a long time. Now the only way is to lease it from the United States.

Now, who can blame? It is all to blame that the Germans are too cunning, constantly stirring up the emotions of the American people against supporting Britain.

What is the road to the UK?

Churchill, still smoking his cigar, was sitting in a chair with his legs crossed, his face unsightly.

"Compared to the maritime issue, we still have to pay attention to the land. The main force of our expeditionary force is about to be surrounded by the Germans. Everyone, there is our elite force there, and we must not lose it." Archibald, Chief of the Imperial Staff De-Montgomery-Massenbird, with a worried look on his face.

The assault of the German armored forces surprised everyone. The Schlieffen plan in World War I failed and was defeated by the equipment. Now, seeing that Germany is about to succeed, their equipment brings them a huge advantage!

Just ten minutes ago, Churchill had a phone call with French Prime Minister Renault. There, Renault's tone was quite decadent.

He said to Churchill: "I am afraid we are going to lose this battle!"

When he put down the phone, Churchill didn't say anything, watching a group of aides talking in front of him, but no one could come up with a new opinion.

The British Empire has been shaken, and Churchill must save the current situation!

"We can't wait any longer. Since France can't hold on, we must withdraw our troops from France!" At this moment, Churchill suddenly put down his cigar and said to the person in front of him.

Withdraw!

This is the last resort to save Britain.

Now, even if you think about it with your ass, you can know that in the face of the attack of the sharp German armored forces, you have no chance of winning. If this is the case, then it is better to withdraw.

Not only their own troops, but also the French troops, they will definitely withdraw along with them and arrive in the UK, which will lay the foundation for the UK's future counter-offensive.

At the same time, after the withdrawal, the demise of France is inevitable. In this case, the British Navy can expand its strength again, that is, to incorporate the French Navy!

Now, Germany is mainly fighting on land in France, and mainly fighting Britain at sea. It is conceivable that the Germans want to trap the UK by blocking the sea.

The only way the UK can get out of this predicament is now.

The main force of the British fleet is gone, but the French fleet is still there!

After the end of World War I, the French fleet was basically crippled. However, with the development of twenty years, the French navy has developed into the level of the fourth navy in the world. They have a large number of warships.

However, the main warships of the French Navy are all deployed in the south, and their imaginary enemy is Italy.

If the French Navy's warships are replenished, the British Navy will regain the ability to compete with the Germans for maritime supremacy!

In the predicament, Churchill will never sit still, he must save the empire!

"Get me a plane, I'm going to Paris," Churchill said.

This kind of blatantly asking France for their navy, of course, has to be sincere. Churchill must go there in person, discuss with Prime Minister Reno, and send the main force of the French fleet to Great Britain. As long as they reach their own port, it will be easy.

Churchill could only make a trip in person.

When he stood up, his brows wrinkled, and a rushing feeling from his crotch made his forehead sweat immediately.

what happened?

Churchill had a faint feeling that something was wrong with his body, but now, he couldn't fall. If he fell, the empire would be over.

"Prime Minister, what's the matter?" asked the person next to him.

"It's alright, I've been sitting for a long time, and I have cramps." Churchill tried to make himself relaxed: "Go to Paris now!"

This action of my own is related to the future of the UK! Since France can no longer hold it, let's just throw it away and let the French army and the British army retreat to the United Kingdom. In this way, there is still hope for our own side!

If these troops were completely wiped out by Germany, it can be said that Britain's hope would be slim.

Churchill continued to smoke two cigars and walked to the door. He turned his head and looked at the flag of the Union Jack hanging directly above the conference room. Suddenly, all the confidence returned to his heart.

We haven't failed yet! We will not fail either!

Now, it's just an expedient measure. If Britain wants to win, it must bring the United States in. After all these things are done, I will go to the United States to meet with Roosevelt. The United Kingdom must get the support of the United States!

With firm steps, Churchill stepped out.

Half an hour later, at the airport near London, a passenger plane took off from the airport and flew into the darkness.

Although generally safe at night, the RAF dispatched four fighter jets to escort the airliner as it flew across the English Channel towards Paris.
