Chapter 531 (1/2)
What do Germans think? Is there a draught in your head? This is a doubt in front of Darlan.
Are you kidding? The Germans in the north are hundreds of kilometers away from here. Even if the Germans come all the way, it will take at least two or three days. These Germans parachute to their own territory and think they can stick to it for two or three days?
They must be crazy!
”Immediately ask for instructions from Paris to mobilize two nearby infantry divisions to Brest and recapture our manor.” Darlan said.
At least near Brest, there are two infantry divisions. Although they are just recruited reserve forces, they are tens of thousands of troops after all. Even if they are filled with human lives, they can drown the German airborne soldiers with human sea tactics!
Paris will certainly agree to his request, because Paris also knows what the manor here means, which is an indispensable support for France's flop in the future.
Even if France perishes, as long as it has these wealth, France will have a chance to make a comeback.
Even if the French government wants to surrender, the gold will be transferred.
Ask the nearby infantry division to help!
”Bang, bang, bang.” Just then, in the distance, suddenly came the sound of anti-aircraft guns.
”What's going on?” Asked Darlan.
”No, there are a large number of aircraft coming over Brest!” An adjutant hurried over: ”there are at least 300 German fighters!”
More than 300? Suddenly, Darlan suddenly understood something. The Germans have a big appetite. They actually want to land across the sea!
Yes, it's Cross Sea landing! The proud German wants to open up a second battlefield in Brest!
In fact, this is already in Shrek's plan.
The most important of them, of course, is the gold of the French. Thousands of tons of gold is what Chirac is most eager to get.
You know, the war in Germany has been fought almost entirely by the original 600 tons of gold. Up to now, there is still a part of that batch of gold remaining, about 100 tons. It can be seen how huge the consumption of the war is.
At the same time, the high amount of gold imported a large number of materials and fed American capitalists. They would not agree with Roosevelt's intervention in European affairs. If Roosevelt stood on the side of Britain and France, who would those capitalists make money?
Germany needs new gold before it can continue to promote Germany's plan. Germany must get these French gold.
Even launching a cross sea landing operation is not hesitate!
Darlan's guess is accurate. It's not enough for the French to consume only the airborne team, or even one airborne division. The French can use the sea of people tactics to recapture the vault and transfer the gold before the northern army comes.
In history, Germany discovered the French gold transfer plan. The armored division in the North rushed to Brest. When they arrived, the last ship of gold had been transported away, and the Germans didn't touch anything.
