On the morning of November 13, Lin Youde was awakened from his sleep by the sound of cannons.**
He had moved from the warship and set up his own command in the villa of Josephine's mother's house in the southern part of Paris.
It is said that Lin Youde's headquarters in Helangyabo is also luxurious enough. From design to construction, famous craftsmen were hired to take charge. However, after living in Xiafei's luxury old house with a history of more than 200 years, Lin Youde knew.
They are all luxurious houses, and the differences caused by historical accumulation still exist. Vinegar or something is a landscape that Linji headquarters does not have.
Of course, Lin Youde lived in the Summer Palace, but it was a Chinese royal garden, which was fundamentally different from the old house of Xia Fei's family and could not be compared.
In addition, what surprised Lin Youde even more was that there were only ten maids in this old house, about thirty years old, and several people did not eat his halo, and the immunity rate could not be looked at directly. Later, he asked Josephine and found out that,
The maids of the Xiafei family received almost the same education as those of the nobles since childhood. Moreover, many people's family has served the Xiafei family for several generations. Under the influence of the eyes, all the noble ladies are almost as good as those of the orthodox in all aspects.
Lin Youde looked at his maid team, except for those who had first come out of Guangzhou and were promoted to senior maid captains, who were really unable to compare with the old servants of Xiafei's family.
Because of these reasons, Lin Youde moved into this house and lived in a very comfortable place - well, there are two beauties around him who are more involved in the Max of Serra, and he should be very comfortable wherever he goes.
The comfort was too much. Lin Youde almost forgot that he was on the battlefield. He now understands very well why commanders from all over the country were so cute in the early stage of the last battle of time and space, enjoying wealth and living a noble-like life.
It's a hell for the official to fight a good battle.
The sound of cannons that morning once again reminded Lin Youde that the fact that he was on the battlefield was not far away from the German soldiers.
After Lin Youde opened his eyes, he found that his two wives were no longer on the bed. He got up. This action alarmed Serra, who was curled up beside him. She probably took the time to sneak in after Josephine and Ba got up.
The little girl shook like a frightened cat, and then she bounced up. Perhaps the movement of getting up was too violent, causing her head to be instantly ischemia. She sat there and stared blankly at Lin Youde.
"Serra." Lin Youde was speechless, "I said, don't always come to me and get into my bed."
Sierra didn't speak. She continued to look at Lin Youde in a daze. At this time, a second explosion came from outside the window, followed by a rumbling sound of cannons completely overwhelmed the birds singing in the courtyard outside the window.**
Sierra turned her head and looked out the window, and the trance on her face was replaced by curiosity: "What's wrong? Is it thunder?"
Lin Youde's words seem to have been ignored by perfection.
Lin Youde sighed and turned out the window: "It was the sound of cannons, the sound of war."
At this time, the bedroom door was opened. Josephine entered the room and sighed slightly when she saw Serra. Then she changed into a serious expression and said to Lin Youde: "The German army launched shelling along the entire Marne River. We are
The rewards of a series of observation posts set up on the front line, most of the heavy artillery were concentrated on the North Shore position that was still under the control of the French army."
"Is there any movement in the ferry heads controlled by the German army?" Lin Youde asked.
"Not found yet."
Lin Youde nodded and asked again: "Where did the cannon sounds we hear now come from?"
"The shells fell directly into the city," Josephine replied. "It seems that the Germans pushed their long-range heavy artillery directly to the front line. This is crazy."
"Let the VF take off and detect where those artillery are. Be prepared to use the commando to take down the positions of those artillery companies."
It prevented the shelling of Paris, but it could greatly increase the French's favorability to the Chinese team. In Lin Youde's view, there was no reason not to do this. Moreover, this shelling actually had a great blow to the morale of the military and civilians.
Without the support of the people, it would be difficult to keep Paris up.
Just as Josephine took the order and was about to leave, Ba pushed the door open and came in.
Ba made a move that was exactly the same as Josephine: She glanced at Serra sitting on the bed, sighed and shook her head, and then began to say the serious matter: "French Prime Minister Kayo is visiting."
"What are he here to do?" Lin Youde curled his lips. After so many days in France, Lin Youde, the old and old French political circles, has visited them, and has finished all the polite words that should be discussed.
Ba shrugged and replied, "It seems that he is planning to invite us to move to Bordeaux on the Atlantic shore with France."
Lin Youde frowned. Whether it was the impression after seeing Kayo in person or the memories brought from the previous time and space, Lin Youde felt that Kayo was a man, so he originally thought that France in this time and space would not move away from Paris.
He also thought that in the future, the German army might be on the way to the city, and then he calmly motivated morale at the Concorde Square.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the German guns rang, the French zhengfu was about to run away.
What Lin Youde didn't know was that if Kayo hadn't been persistent, France would have run away long ago. From when Foch ordered to retreat from the border and retreat to Verdun's front line to dozens of days now, the French cabinet had two
The famous minister resigned on the grounds of physical discomfort.
After thinking for a while, Lin Youde said to Ba: "Let him wait a moment, I'll put on my clothes and go out now."
As soon as Lin Youde entered the reception room, Kayou stood up and extended his hand to Lin Youde enthusiastically.
After shaking hands, Lin Youde took the lead in speaking: "The Germans are bombarding fiercely. Mr. Kayo came to the door with such rumbling cannons, which made me feel frightened."
"When I went out, the German shelling had not started yet." Kayo took Lin Youde's words calmly, "Mr. Lin, although I have explained my purpose to my wife, I will let me give you official information here.
Send an invitation and we have prepared a comfortable estate for you in Bordeaux, with bays near the estate to moor your flying battleships.”
"I guess there is a historic wine cellar underground, full of aged Bordeaux wine, right?" Lin Youde tried his best to make his words sound like a sarcasm, and his efforts seemed to have achieved results.
Kayo replied with a proud look: "Yes, do you like red wine?"
"I like it." In fact, Lin Youde has no special requirements for wine, "But, I still prefer Burgundy products to Bordeaux red wine."
Lin Youde's words were simply embarrassing Kayo, because the Burgundy region was behind the defensive line composed of three fortress groups including Verdun Tule Belfort, and now it is under the threat of the German army like Paris.
Kayo is not stupid, of course he could hear the subtext in Lin Youde's speech. He coughed lightly, pressed the attacking ** and said to Lin Youde: "Strategic retreat is a forced one, and we don't want to leave the public the impression of escaping in the face of battle.
However, once the German army completes its siege of Paris, it will be difficult to transfer again. Once it loses zhengfu, France will be in chaos. Isn’t you a proverb in China that “there are no leaders”? We can’t take this
risk."
Lin Youde was too lazy to complain about the French's error in understanding "the leaderless" and asked Kayo directly: "If Paris is captured, where else can be used for defense in such a large France? Losing Paris is equivalent to throwing Verduntule away.
The defensive line formed by Belfore Pinalle, the remaining French territory is a large plain. What do you rely on to resist the German army?"
"Military matters are under the control of the generals." Kayo confronted him without hesitation, "All the French generals will stay in Paris and live and die with the city."
"So you can run away? You are the Republic, and in the hearts of the public, the symbol of your country is your Republic, not the generals. Once you leave, the people of Paris will think that you have abandoned them."
Kayo doesn't speak.
Lin Youde pursued the victory: "Ah, then again, the people of Paris have long been used to being abandoned and betrayed. This was the case during the Great Revolution, the Franco-Prussian War, and the Paris Commune. It was because of the times
Only when the French were abandoned would they choose the Corsicans who would always lead the way as their emperor.”
"I'm going to tell what you mean," Kayo finally couldn't hold it in, "Aren't you going to leave?"
"Of course," Lin Youde held his head up and his chest with his hands behind his back. "I am a businessman, a politician, and the highest military commander of Helangyabo. I will never escape at the last minute."
Kayo stared at Lin Youde, looking so angry that he couldn't speak, and his lips kept twitching.
At this time, Sera, who had touched the room at some point, suddenly spoke: "Napoleon Bonaparte!"
Sierra's pronunciation is strange, and it feels a bit like a rough Russian man reading French with his hard tongue with vodka. Lin Youde almost heard that she was calling the name of the great little dwarf.
Lin Youde turned around and looked at Sera strangely, and Sera also looked at him. After looking at each other for a few seconds, the little girl said, "Can I point it with my hands?"
"No." Lin Youde said.
Sierra pouted.
Then Lin Youde turned his neck back and looked at Kayo, but found that the expression on the French Prime Minister's face was very strange.
"This lady is..." He glanced at Sera and turned to Lin Youde.
Lin Youde said without thinking: "This is my new favorite, what's wrong?"
"Is she a god girl?"
Lin Youde nodded.
Then he saw beads of sweat as big as beans appeared on Kayo's forehead.
"Uh, Lord Lin," said the French Prime Minister in a panic in a panic voice, "There are still many things to do to relocate, so let me say goodbye."
"Okay." Lin Youde made a "send-up" gesture to the Ba who had been standing behind him.
Kayo took his only entourage and hurriedly left the reception room...)
