I was a tycoon in World War I: Starting to save France.

"Your Majesty!" General Guis anxiously persuaded: "This concerns the lives of all of us..."

"There is no room for discussion, General!" Albert I interrupted General Guis without hesitation: "I believe that the vast majority of Belgians will make the same decision as me. They will not hand over Charles either, never!"

General Guis complained in his heart. This is governance and politics. It is not a place for chivalry. The king does not understand the truth that "there are only interests between countries"!

However, General Guis did not say it. He knew that he could not persuade Albert I, just like he resolutely chose to go to war with Germany regardless of Belgium's interests, and even attacked the German supply line when he could protect himself, which angered Germany and caused trouble.

He should think about what Belgium got after doing all this?

Meaningless praise and compliments?

The country and the people may disappear in this hymn!

General Guis thought that he could not watch all this happen. He planned to submit this matter to the parliament and let the parliament decide!

Albert I seemed to have noticed this. He stared at General Guise expressionlessly, as if to say: I will convince the parliament, and they will support my decision, because this is the right choice!

Just as several people were secretly competing, Charles's childish voice sounded on the other side. It was unclear because Charles had cream in his mouth: "Are you going to build a defense line here to block the German attack?"

Several people originally did not intend to pay attention to Charles, they thought they were discussing more important things.

However, General Winter's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Wait, General Guise!" General Winter said, "Maybe we have a third option!"

As he said that, General Winter raised his head to Charles, who was staring at the map intently.

General Guise was stunned for a moment, and soon understood what General Winter meant. Since Charles could help France defeat the Germans, could he help Belgium defeat the Germans?

If the Germans were defeated, of course there was no need to hand over Charles, and there was no need to worry about the lives of the Belgian people being threatened.

General Guise chuckled in disdain: "Do you really think he can turn the tide? Winter, you treat him like God!"

General Winter said: "I think it won't hurt us to try, right?"

General Winter cast his eyes on Albert I, hoping to get Albert I's support.

Albert I understood and responded with action. He walked to the table gracefully and extended his hand to Charles politely: "You are the Charles they are talking about, right, Lieutenant?"

"You are?" Charles shook hands in response.

"I am the King of Belgium, my name is Albert!" Albert I replied: "Nice to meet you!"

Charles was stunned. He was a little nervous to meet a king in his lifetime: "I am honored, Your Majesty!"

Albert I raised his chin to the two generals behind him, meaning to let them join the discussion.

General Guise and General Winter understood, and walked over quickly and slowly to stand on both sides of Albert I facing Charles.

General Gis glanced at the map, pointed to a newly drawn line reluctantly, and answered Charles' question: "We plan to deploy British troops here to protect the water supply system..."

"You can't protect anything!" Charles interrupted General Gis.

General Gis said "hmm" and turned his eyes to General Winter, meaning: This little guy looks down on your army, now it's your turn to answer.

General Winter was a little unwilling: "I think we can, lieutenant! I brought the best troops, they are well-equipped..."

"This has nothing to do with quality and equipment. You will be defeated if you can't see the enemy!" Charles pointed to a point behind the defense line and said, "You seem to have overlooked one point. Less than one kilometer behind the defense line is the second line of defense, Fort Elgin. The German heavy artillery will focus on bombing it..."

Before he finished speaking, General Winter and General Gis both understood, and they exclaimed:

"Heavy artillery will blow up this line of defense when bombing Fort Elgin!"

"One kilometer is even within the error range of their heavy artillery. God, we are saving shells for the Germans!"

Albert I looked at the two with interest. He was a little curious about how this could happen. Two generals with medals on their chests were pointed out for low-level mistakes by a lieutenant.

This is actually not surprising.

Belgium has not been at war for 75 years. General Gis did not have actual combat experience until the Germans launched the attack a month ago.

General Winter, a congressman and a rear admiral, had only naval experience and had almost no experience in land warfare.

But Charles had modern military knowledge. They were not even worthy of being students in front of Charles.

"So!" General Giss's face became serious: "Where do you think we should set up the defense line?"

"We shouldn't set up a defense line!" Charles was full, and he took a napkin and wiped his mouth.

"Let the enemy attack?" General Giss asked in confusion.

"Yes!" Charles nodded.

General Giss objected: "You may not know, Lieutenant, the range of the German heavy artillery is much longer than ours, and we have no power to fight back..."

"That's why we have to let the enemy attack!"

"What do you mean?" General Giss didn't understand.

Charles took two red flags representing the enemy and placed them on the map. He pushed them and approached Antwerp while saying, "After the Germans destroyed the Wavre Fortress, they had to move the heavy artillery forward to bomb the Elgin Fortress on the second floor!"

"That's right!"

"Of course!"

...

Several people nodded in response. They were waiting for Charles to continue, but Charles spread his hands to indicate that he had finished.

"And then what?" General Winter asked.

"Then their heavy artillery was finished!" Charles replied.

"How is that possible!" General Gis smiled and shook his head, with disdain on the corner of his mouth, as if to say, see, I knew this wouldn't work.

Winter reminded Charles: "The artillery of Fort Elgin can't reach the enemy either, Lieutenant!"

Charles asked back: "What about Fort Wavre?"

"Fort Wavre has been blown up..." General Winter was stunned in the middle of his words, and then exclaimed: "God, what a good idea! We will destroy the German heavy artillery, so that their offensive will be insignificant!"

"What?" General Guise still didn't understand.

Albert I nodded slightly, looking at Charles with amazement and admiration: "It's a good idea, as long as we camouflage Fort Wavre and make it look like it has been blown up! Then, the enemy will push the heavy artillery in front of it!"

General Guise suddenly realized, he stared at Charles with wide eyes, surprised and ashamed, and more suspicious, he couldn't believe that this idea came from the child in front of him!
