After Qin Zhiyuan walked out of Foch's office, Michelet walked to Foch's desk and sat down. He took a sip of coffee and shook his head: What a lucky guy. How old is he? 20 years old. Knight of the Grand Cross, my God.
He is indeed lucky, luckier than all of us. When I was his age, I had just graduated from the technical college and was working hard to enter the artillery school. Look at him, he is now a colonel and has received the Grand Cross.
Or, really, Foch shook his head and returned to his desk and sat down, with his elbows on the table and his fingers touching each other to form a pyramid, which fully showed that he was a man with strong control.
His troops are somewhat out of specification. They just received six 75mm artillery pieces from Capi some time ago. I am going to punish the quartermaster. Although there are unavoidable tricks within the army, Michelet is ready to scare the monkeys this time.
There is no need. Let him get what he wants and see what he can do. Foch is very optimistic about Qin Zhiyuan. Perhaps this is the reason why he advocated awarding Qin Zhiyuan the Grand Cross: You know, now we need the army, we need
A large number of troops, more troops are needed to defeat the Germans and defend France. We are not British and do not have the manpower support like India. In the Far East, the Chinese did not dare to send troops due to pressure from the Germans, but could only send laborers
.So, give Qin the greatest freedom and let us see what he is capable of and whether he is worthy of his name.
I don't think the labor force under him plays a decisive role. Compared with the French who have received more education, the Chinese are a group of illiterate and barbaric people. I think that they can learn to use rifles as a result of their blessing.
Michelet was very prejudiced against Orientals, which also represents the mainstream consciousness in France.
No, no, no, your intelligence has fallen behind. Look at this. Foch picked up a document from the table and placed it in front of Michelet. After Michelet opened it, Foch continued to introduce: This is Cappi's third document.
Progress report sent by Lieutenant Narr. Lieutenant Dinar and several officers are helping the Sixth Regiment conduct training. You should notice that it only took a week for the Chinese to become proficient in operating heavy machine guns and shoot.
They can disassemble weapons for maintenance, and their shooters have excellent physical strength and can better control machine guns to shoot at distant targets. As for their artillery, look at Dinar’s summary. The Chinese are naturally sensitive to numbers.
It only took a week for their artillery to start contact ranging. Under the same conditions, their progress was twice that of the French artillery. Moreover, a 75mm field gun weighed nearly 1,200 kilograms. If it was the French, it would be difficult to move
She needs 20 people, but the Chinese can do it with 10 people or less. They are natural soldiers.
Er, Michelet turned over the document in his hand and read it several times. He even looked at the last signature of the document for a long time before shaking his head in disbelief: It's unbelievable that the shooting performance of their riflemen can reach good standards.
, and even a considerable number of people can achieve excellent or even outstanding performance. Their physical fitness is amazing. Their performance in the five-thousand-meter run is comparable to that of the French army, and their short-distance sprint is even better. Moreover, Lieutenant Dinar said in this report,
He believed that the Chinese were not using their full strength. Seeing this document, I became more and more interested in the Chinese.
Michelet picked up the coffee on the table and felt it was already cold, so he called his secretary for another cup.
Yes, you should be interested. I have a hunch that Qin will play an increasingly important role. Perhaps Qin will create a miracle. Foch said with a smile, with a sly look on his face.
Yes, I heard that many people in Kapi called him an angel. It seems that he is very popular. Michelet is a bit stout, his face is bloated, and he is a bit bald. He hates Qin Zhiyuan's looks.
He's a handsome man.
Your news is delayed again. Mr. Leder Auerbach has gone to the Vatican a few days ago, probably to report this matter. Now there are rumors that this angel gentleman may be awarded the Grand Cross of the Knights Hospitaller. As a northerner
The commander-in-chief of the Army Group, Foch, was indeed better informed than Michelet, the commander of the Tenth Army Group.
What the Pope wants to do is to restore the glory of the three knights. We are not in the Middle Ages anymore, so it is no longer possible. Michelet shook his head and sighed. As a Catholic, Michelet felt sorry for the three knights.
You don't understand that even if the glory of the three major knights cannot be restored, it is still very important to consolidate the orthodox status. Foch is unwavering, as if what he said has nothing to do with him.
Christianity, in a broad sense, anyone who believes in Jesus is Christianity. Christianity is divided into many schools, such as Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Protestantism, etc. If in a narrow sense, Christianity refers to Protestantism, that is, the religious indigenization movement in European countries
The sects that emerged later. Although these sects all believe in Jesus, they are very conflicted with each other. For example, in Qin in another time and space, the Christianity within Qin is not recognized by the Vatican. Of course, the Christianity in Qin is not recognized by the Vatican.
The status of suzerain.
Just be confused like that.
As soon as he walked out of Foch's office, Qin Zhiyuan saw Gao Hongshi and Huang Fugui waiting in the corridor. As soon as they saw Qin Zhiyuan, they let out a sigh of relief and came forward.
Qin Zhiyuan signaled them not to talk much, and then smiled and asked the beautiful secretary who was leading the way: I want to visit Colonel Bruno Garcia, can you tell me where he works?
Of course, Mr. Colonel. The secretary is smiling like a flower. This is not intentional to seduce. French women are always full of charm.
Thank you very much. Qin Zhiyuan, who wears the rank of colonel and a large cross ribbon, has enough capital to look cool.
This is the headquarters of the Northern Army Group. There are a lot of people coming and going in a hurry. When they see Qin Zhiyuan wearing a ribbon, it is inevitable that some people will take a second look, with envy, admiration, ridicule and contempt. There are all kinds of eyes.
This made Qin Zhiyuan, who was used to walking in darkness, feel very uncomfortable.
You can take it off. Perhaps seeing Qin Zhiyuan's discomfort, the secretary reminded him softly.
Thank you very much. Qin Zhiyuan thanked him again, then collected the ribbons, medals and other items on his body and put them in the box. Compared with the politeness just now, this time his thanks were more sincere.
Do you have anything to do with Mr. Bruno? Perhaps seeing Qin Zhiyuan's goodwill, the secretary asked a rare question.
This is already breaking the rules. In the position of secretary, the most important thing is to read more and speak less. Of course, it is wartime, and the requirements are not so strict. Foch himself has more than a dozen secretaries, and there will always be a few who can make up the number.
Determine our clothing. You know, the current military uniforms really fit well on your beautiful ladies. They are beautiful and generous, and fully demonstrate the graceful figure and upright temperament of women. But when they are worn on me, I feel like I
I am like a chicken. If you stay in France for a long time, you will inevitably develop a glib tongue.
In France, describing a man as a chicken is really not a curse. The country's national symbol is the chicken, and its status is almost the same as the national bird.
