Chapter 69 Your Responsibilities

Just like all French dinners, some wine and hot coffee listen to the cold wind outside the window in a warm room. It is precisely in such an environment that politicians who are old in political skills will start their real conversation.

"Right! That's right! The first element of a war is the problem of intelligence work. But now I have to say that there are major problems in our intelligence work. I think this should be the first problem we need to solve!"

It's really not surprising that he never stops. Charles Charles de Gaulle's words made the president and the two marshals stunned at the same time!

Charles Charles Charles raised his head and no longer put the coffee in his hand into his mouth. He looked directly at the three senior French officials in front of him.

"I believe there is something wrong with our intelligence system! Although I can't tell clearly where the problem is, my intuition tells me that there is something wrong with the French intelligence system!"

Such remarks made Alexander Millerland, Betton, and Fuxi look at each other. They don’t know if they should believe what they hear. They even wondered whether the major general in front of them had heard any rumors.

Finally, the important responsibility of arranging this task was loaded on Marshal Betan's shoulders by the president and Fuxi's eyes. He shrugged his shoulders in a flat mouth.

"Major General de Gaulle, I don't know if you've heard anything, but we have an important task to hand over to you."

When De Gaulle heard the task, he was happy. Having the task could mean that his future was still bright, but he didn't know what kind of tasks these three big men who represented France would hand over to him.

Although there was a feeling in his heart called joy, his face did not reveal the thoughts in his heart at all. He looked at Marshal Beta, as if he was the best soldier waiting for orders.

"Why are you not curious, my Major General?"

"No, Mr. Marshal, what soldiers need is not curiosity, what soldiers need is a calm mind and a spirit of brave fighting!"

Betan was probably quite satisfied with his answer, and he stroked his beard and laughed.

"Is that true? No, I don't agree with this point of view! Sometimes, soldiers need some keen intuition. Well, after saying this, I want to hear your opinion on the war with Thunder International!"

De Gaulle could hear that the other party had not finished speaking. Although he had not yet understood what Marshal Beta meant, he still answered the other party's question directly.

"It will be a very difficult battle, and we will still lose the possibility of victory after paying a huge price."

Fuxi seemed to not like his definition, and asked back with his eyes.

"Major General Charles de Gaulle, I have read the paper you published after you came back from Poland. What we see is that your theory of a well-equipped and well-trained miniaturized army has not received good reviews in France. Do you have any doubts about the French army's victory over an international mercenary because of this? No, I want to say that this is a completely wrong view."

Seeing Fuxi questioning as if he was angry, Charles de Gaulle did not feel worried. On the contrary, he already understood in his heart that this was just a small assessment. He had only passed the exam, so naturally the time to get the reward.

"Is that right? Marshal, what I want to say first is that I have no disrespect. But the frequent regional conflicts in the world today have shown us that such an army has greater uses. Moreover, such an army plays a decisive role in some small regional conflicts. Even in the face of some seemingly large but actually loose armies, this army has an unprecedented advantage. I think the actions of Thunder International in the Bosnian War can show that an army with high mobility, equipment and excellent training can achieve a decisive role!"

Fuxi was probably completely angry with his words. He raised his neck and poured the wine from the wine glass into his throat, and said in a hoarse voice.

"Yes, if there was no huge Chinese Federation behind it, if there was no huge army of the Chinese Federation as backing, my General De Gaulle, would you think they could still gain such an advantage?"

Although Charles de Gaulle, who had made up his mind and decided to take a gamble, did not retreat at all.

"Of course, my marshal. We can also see that the Chinese Federal Defense Forces used only their rapid response forces in previous conflicts. Their huge army has remained in the country, and even the largest number of them is regional security forces. You must know that these troops do not need the central government to support them. In this way, they can save military expenses and equip their rapid forces into the best and most sharp strike force.

In addition, even this army has trained and has more time to fight. Because they have Thunder International, the nominal international mercenary organization. Such a smaller army can prevent them from being involved in large-scale high-loss wars too early. If I were to say, this was precisely the founder of the Chinese Federal Defense Forces who had planned well from the beginning. If we could learn some Chinese culture, we could understand that Thunder International was just a stone used by the Chinese Federation to "tend stones and ask for directions". Even if we lost this stone, what major losses would the Chinese Federation have.

Moreover, what follows will be their all-round, all-around, revenge at all costs! I think the crushing defeat of the European Joint Forces in the Suez Canal area and the losses suffered by the Low Countries can just show this!

Therefore, Marshal Betan, what I want to make is that the outcome of our war with Thunder International is not important. The more important question is how we deal with the comprehensive war from the Chinese Federation. I think the Satan Eagle is not a person with good temperament. If he wants to admit defeat, the price will probably be very terrifying!"

Charles Charles Charles de Gaulle's series of words that seemed like a storm and rain produced a powerful airflow. The loud voice shocked the eardrums of the three senior French leaders in front of him.

After saying that, De Gaulle stopped and prepared to accept the worst plan he had prepared.

What was a bit surprising and touching was that the three senior leaders actually applauded together. There was a burst of excitement in his heart, and he knew that his bet had been completely successful.

"I'm sorry, my tone may be a little quick, but it's important that I want to explain my point of view. And the basis of these points comes entirely from what I witnessed and heard in my own eyes!"

"No, you said very well, Mr. Major General. You have a very clear grasp of the focus of the problem. I think this also proves that our choice is correct!"

Beden happily patted De Gaulle's shoulder, his tone sounded proud and contained a lot of praise. At this time, Fuxi was not as enthusiastic as Beden, and although De Gaulle's urgent and quick speech seemed to be opposed to his opinion. But his smile was still full of praise, and at the same time, his eyes saw French President Alexander Millerland, probably asking about his opinion.

When the latter stopped applauding, he tilted his head, as if he was not impressed by Charles de Gaulle's theory, but rather from the recommendations of the two marshals in front of him.

"Well, two marshals, I think I completely agree with your choice. Go and do it. We have to let everyone understand that Europe is always the Europeans! As for Asians, their power should not cause a flood in Europe, and we will do our best to fight them to the end!"

Listening to Mr. President's declaration of not being like a declaration of war, De Gaulle was completely confused.

"Okay, we will no longer play the puzzle, my Major General, the purpose of our transfer of you from the front is very simple. We need someone who can provide us with the right news, a strong and professional soldier. When the President made this request to us, we chose you!"

"Providing the correct news, does the Lord indicate that I will no longer be able to lead the army to fight Thunder International? This..."

Charles de Gaulle was not mentally prepared to leave a war. At least this is the only quickest way to get promotion in peacetime. As a soldier and a person who is very interested in the development of combat methods, this is not very good news.

"Why, are you worried that you have stayed away from the war? No, Mr. Major General, I think you should be mentally prepared. You have participated in the most important battle, and even this war is related to the survival of France and the safety of the whole of Europe! Do you understand what I say?"

Charles de Gaulle listened to these words in a daze, and did not feel much grateful for this trust. As a soldier, his final choice on the battlefield. Seeing that he was getting farther and farther away from the war zone, he asked anxiously.

"Mr. Marshal, do you mean I will be working in the intelligence department? Oh, this... this is not my choice!"

Looking at the difficult color on De Gaulle's face, Betton became serious.
