Iron Tower City, garrison headquarters.

When the Iron Tower City was about to be attacked, the Gallic ruler Albert Brun and the Prime Minister Marshal Pétain had already fled the Iron Tower City with some high-level officials and fled to Orleans.

Moreover, even escaping to Orleans was not safe, and they were preparing to continue their escape south to Vichy.

At this moment, the voices of surrender among the senior leaders of the Gallic Kingdom are also increasing. More and more people believe that there is no hope for Gaul. If they continue to resist, Gaul will only pay a heavier price. Instead of doing this, it is better to surrender as soon as possible, and maybe you can pay less losses.

Even though the conditions of the Third Reich were very harsh, since the war was defeated, they had to admit defeat. Just like after the end of the last world war and the failure of the Second Empire, Gaul, as the victorious country, slaughtered the Second Empire.

Now, it's just that everything has been changed again. The victorious country became the Third Reich, while Gaul became the loser.

In the Gallic military, there were also many people who advocated surrender. Even though they were soldiers, they were also scared out of their wits. In particular, although there were many Gallic troops gathered around the Iron Tower City, they amounted to four armies and 1.6 million people. However, these troops are almost all new recruits who have never been on the battlefield before. Once you encounter the powerful army of the Third Reich on the battlefield, you can naturally imagine what the consequences will be.

Therefore, many Gallic generals believed that it was impossible for them to win this battle. If we continue to resist, more people will die on the battlefield and lose their lives. Rather than doing this, it is better to surrender.

Although, this certainly detracts from their glory. But when it comes to choosing between glory and life, I believe many people will choose life.

These generals who have lost their fighting spirit and even their courage are no better than ordinary people at this moment.;

"Everyone, the attacks of the Third Reich are becoming more and more fierce. Their vanguard had already reached a place less than 20 kilometers away from Iron Tower City. Even, their heavy artillery can directly launch bombardment on Iron Tower City. The defense lines we built outside the city have been broken through by the Third Reich one after another. So, now, are we ready for a massive street battle in Tower City? Defeat the Third Reich through a large-scale street battle, thwart the Third Reich's attack, and defend our country!"Admiral Gamelin said

"Commander, are you kidding me? How could we withstand the Third Reich? We have lost more than two million elite troops before. The Maginot Line was also besieged by the Third Reich and was already in a precarious state. Even if we have assembled 1.6 million troops in Iron Tower City. However, these are newly formed troops, seriously lacking heavy weapons and anti-tank weapons, and the morale of the troops has been in a low state. Once the Third Reich launches an attack, we will not be able to resist it at all, and our troops will even collapse."Said General Herbert, commander of the 9th Army in Gaul.

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander, compared with our three empires, the gap in strength is too big. If the fight continues, we have no chance of winning! Once the Third Reich is surrounded, we will not be able to escape. It would be best if we evacuate the iron and retreat to the hinterland before the Third Reich's encirclement is formed. In this case, maybe there is still a chance. After all, as the Third Reich continues to penetrate deeper into our hinterland, their backline will be stretched longer and longer. And if we can get the support of the people, the possibility of us fighting will be greater."Admiral Fayol, commander of the 10th Group Army, also said.

The other generals nodded repeatedly.

In fact, these guys were simply frightened by the Third Reich and did not have the courage to fight against the Third Reich. That's why he came up with these reasons to escape from Iron Tower City.

Admiral Gamelin was not a fool, and he naturally knew what these guys were thinking.

He was very angry in his heart, thinking that these guys were not worthy of calling themselves soldiers at all.

But with At the same time, he had to understand.

Although the performance of Gaul in this battle was so bad that everyone had no confidence in Gaul. The current Gaul is like a broken ship. They are all likely to sink.

Under such circumstances, everyone naturally wants a boat to escape.

"Everyone, you can think clearly. Tower City is our capital. Once we lose Tower City, how will the people look at us? Is there still hope for the entire country of Gaul?"Admiral Gamelin's expression was serious.

The expressions of all the generals could not help but become serious.

They naturally knew what General Gamelin meant.

If possible, they naturally hope to save their country. But The problem is that the enemy is too powerful, so powerful that they have no ability to resist. Under such circumstances, do they have any other choice besides surrender? When the country is about to perish, of course some people will Stand up and defend your country, even if it means sacrificing your own life.

But some people will also put their own interests first.

Especially in the Western world, more emphasis is placed on personal interests. They are at this time , even more so, he would give up his own country.

"Your Excellency, Commander, Iron Tower City is a famous historical and cultural city. If this place is destroyed in the war, it will undoubtedly be a loss for all mankind. The Third Reich were barbarians and had been bombing the Tower City. We can't just watch the Tower City be destroyed! I think we should evacuate the Iron Tower City to prevent the Iron Tower City from being destroyed by the war!"Admiral Emil, commander of the 11th Group Army, said.

Many generals couldn't help but light up.

This is indeed a good way! They all want to evacuate Iron Tower City, but they are afraid of being insulted by the people.

If they can use this If we evacuate in name, we will undoubtedly have an excellent excuse.

"Your Excellency, Commander, Iron Tower City is a cultural treasure of all mankind. It cannot be destroyed like this. We should evacuate here proactively!"Other generals also made suggestions.

Due to the pressure of everyone, General Gamelin had no choice but to accept. On

October 11, General Gamelin, commander of the Iron Tower City garrison, announced that Iron Tower City was an undefended city. , the Gallic army will evacuate immediately, and we hope that the troops of the Third Reich will not destroy the Tower City again._Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
