"You said it was not your responsibility." Philippe Pétain became even more angry, "During this battle, we asked you for help twice. The first time you did not dispatch the air force on the grounds that you did not go through joint training. Although you dispatched the air force the second time, the air force fighter planes were only circling in the sky without firing a single bomb. Could it be that your rescue was ineffective?"

Xiao Yingwu was a little dizzy when he heard that, Xiao Yingwu didn't know about asking for help from the Air Force, the French army directly used the special line of the Air Force, and the Air Force didn't report to Xiao Yingwu, Xiao Yingwu turned to look at his adjutant, and asked: " Is it true what Philippe Pétain said?"

The adjutant hurriedly said: "It's true, the Air Force has indeed received two requests for help, the first time no planes were dispatched, and the second time four J-25s were dispatched, but when the J-25s rushed to the battlefield, they found that the sky over the battlefield was too chaotic. , cannot support."

Xiao Yingwu nodded lightly, and gave Philippe Pétain a sinister smile, "Philippe Pétain, I have no objection that you want to blame us for the failure, but I want to ask you a few questions, if you can answer confidently, I am willing to take responsibility."

"what is the problem?"

"The first question, at the beginning of the war, did our Commander Lin tell you to focus on decisive battles and psychological warfare, and not to send troops to launch landing operations for the time being?"

"That's right, Mr. Lin Yuan did tell me about this, but I think it's meaningless to do so. A simple psychological attack is useless. We need to overwhelm the British defense with heavy troops."

"Okay, the second question, after the war, did you drive our liaison officer away from your headquarters and prevent him from reporting the progress of the battle to our Chinese side?"

Philip Petain was a little ashamed, nodded, Xiao Yingwu snorted coldly, "Commander Lin warned you not to launch a landing operation for the time being. Let us not understand the progress of your battle at all, and when you need air support, send us a message for help immediately, do you think we can dispatch in the fastest time to support you?"

Philippe Pétain knew he was wrong, and kept silent. Xiao Yingwu sneered and said, "I've already talked to this extent, do you still have the face to blame us?"

Philippe Pétain couldn't bear to speak soft words. At this time, Xiao Yingwu's adjutant stood up to smooth things over and said to Xiao Yingwu: "Commander, don't talk about these things now, let's discuss the countermeasures in the future."

"Okay." Xiao Yingwu agreed casually, and then looked at Philippe Pétain, "Mr. Marshal, you are the leading party in this landing campaign. Please give us a plan on how to attack and how to cooperate in the next step."

After Xiao Yingwu finished speaking and wanted to leave, the communicator in the adjutant's hand suddenly rang. Xiao Yingwu's eyes fell on the adjutant's communicator. The adjutant took out the communicator, took a look, and handed the communicator to Xiao Yingwu, "Commander Member, it is a voice call request sent by Lin Shuai himself, are you going back to answer it?"

Xiao Yingwu snatched the communicator, "I'm talking to Lin Shuai right here." After speaking, he pressed the answer button.

Lin Yuan's voice came from the communicator: "Old Xiao, where are you?"

"I was at the French Army Command, and I just had a big fight with the French grandsons. These grandsons blamed us for the failure, and I was so angry."

"Okay, old Xiao, don't be angry. You can go to Philippe Pétain right now and ask him if the French army has a public opinion monitoring force. If so, let the public opinion monitoring force be dispatched to guide the French domestic public opinion immediately."

"Guiding public opinion? Why do you want to do this? What's the use?"

"The fiasco of the French army will definitely make the French people very dissatisfied. I think there must be countless French people who have taken to the streets to demand that the government stop attacking the UK. You know, France is a democratic country. At this time, it will definitely Those who are led away by public opinion must be monitored and guided by the French army."

Xiao Yingwu smiled disdainfully, "What do you care about the French army? These grandsons are teammates like pigs. Let them go home and hold their grandchildren." Xiao Yingwu's angry words stunned the translator. The army did not have a Chinese translation at this time, otherwise Philippe Pétain would have been pissed off.

Lin Yuan knew Xiao Yingwu very well, and he didn't have the same knowledge as his angry words. He just smiled and said, "Okay, old Xiao, quickly tell the Supreme Commander of the French Army my opinion. It is impossible for France to cease fighting."

"Why is it impossible for France to cease fighting?"

"France has invested a lot of money in attacking the UK. Only by attacking the UK can these funds be profitable. I won't say much about this matter. The most important thing now is to guide public opinion."

"Okay." Xiao Yingwu agreed, turned off the communicator, and then looked at Philippe Pétain with a calmer tone, "Marshal Philipp Pétain, you have suffered such a disastrous defeat, and the domestic people will definitely complain , Now the public opinion monitoring force should be dispatched to control public opinion, I wonder if you have such a force?"

Only then did Philippe Petain's eyes flash with excitement, "Our French army has this kind of troops, and we don't need your guidance on how to use them."

Xiao Yingwu was too lazy to get angry with Philippe Petain, said "very good", turned and left.

Leaving the French headquarters, Xiao Yingwu asked his adjutant, "Do I have any plans for the future?"

The adjutant checked the schedule, shook his head and said, "No, your latest schedule is tonight, and you have a meeting with the commanders of several main divisions."

"Well, in the afternoon, let's go to the city." There is a relatively large city near the barracks. This city provides logistical supplies for the French and Chinese troops. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese and French troops also make this city The city is very prosperous.

Xiao Yingwu brought his adjutant and translator to change into casual clothes, found a civilian car, and drove for more than two hours before arriving in the city. As soon as he entered the city, he obviously felt that the atmosphere was different. The streets and alleys were full of parade crowds , everyone held up huge banners with words like "Stop the war now" and "We don't want war".

"Crazy, these people are crazy." The adjutant said silently.

Xiao Yingwu didn't speak, but asked the adjutant to stop in a secluded place, got out of the car, saw an old man selling newspapers on the side of the road, Xiao Yingwu walked over.
