In the central Gaul city of Orleans, the whole city seems to be shrouded in a melancholy cloud.

Almost all of the troops who had retreated from the bar and on the Marne line were gathering here.

Because the cabinet led by the Grand Commander Raymondpuencaré and the Second Commander Renevviani stayed here for the time being.

It’s just that the main forces of the Germanic Imperial Army were encircling the Gallic army on the line of the Marne. However, some troops also began to approach Orleans.

The nearest unit is already less than twenty kilometers from Orleans.

Although, there were already quite a few Gallic troops gathered around Orleans. But the biggest problem was that these fleeing Gallic armies were too frightened to continue fighting. The whole of Orleans is in the midst of a storm.

Many Gallic soldiers even continued to flee south. As for whether they could escape the pursuit of the Germans, they did not know. They only knew that the Germans were coming, and if they did not escape, they would probably die.

The town hall of Orleans has become the office of the Gallic Congress and the cabinet.

It’s just that the current Grand Commander Raymond Poencaré and the Second Commander Renevaviani have no heart to deal with government affairs at all.

In other words, the most important thing in front of them is no longer government affairs and the like, but the future of the Gallic state, which is the most important.

“Your Excellency, now, what should we do? Our army has already lost a lot on the battlefield. The Germans, who are rapidly encircling our main forces, are continuing to advance south. We no longer have enough army, or an army with enough will to resist, to deal with the Germans. Reneviani had a serious expression.

Raymond Encaré nodded, he had to admit that the current Gallic kingdom had reached its final crunch. If no miracle happens, Gaul may be completely destroyed.

“Will our army still have a chance to withstand the attack of the Germans?” Raymond Poencaré asked.

“Your Excellency, this is already impossible. We will probably lose more than 1.5 million troops in the battle of the Marne, or even more. This is already a fatal blow for us. We only have a few hundred thousand troops left. Even if there are five newly formed armies. However, what is the situation with these army groups, everyone knows very well. Not only is there a lack of heavy equipment, but even training is not completed. The will to fight is even more fragile. To rely on such troops to resist the Germans is simply delusional. Marshal Xia Fei said bluntly.

“Oh God! How did it come to be like this? We have mobilized five million troops! We also have the support of more than a million Imperial Expeditionary Forces. The Germans invested only three million troops in this battle. However, we lost so badly in the end. Raymond Pooncaré looked angry. For this result, it still seems unacceptable.

Marshal Xia Fei was also ashamed.

The Gallic state mobilized five million troops with a population of less than 40 million, which was definitely at its limit. It can be said that the vast majority of young adults have already entered the army to serve.

But it is a pity that even in this way, they were not able to defeat the Germanic Empire, but were defeated by the Germanic Empire. For the army of the Gallic state, this is a complete shame!

Of course, it has to be admitted that the fighting power of the army of the Germanic Empire is much stronger than theirs.

Even if the Germanic Imperial Army did not attack their flank from the Ardennes Mountains, but only continued to attack from the front, they would probably not be able to resist either. It’s just that I can hold out a little longer.

“Your Excellency, I am really very sorry. My performance in this war is so bad that I am no longer fit to be commander-in-chief, and I ask for my resignation, hoping that Your Excellency will approve! “Marshal Xia Fei directly resigned.

Raymondpuencaré frowned, the current Gallic army has completely become a mess. If Marshal Xia Fei doesn’t pick the pick, if he changes to someone else, I’m afraid no one will be able to clean up this mess either.

“Your Excellency Marshal, this is the most critical juncture in the Gallic Kingdom, you can’t escape at this time!” Reneviani said.

“Yes, Your Excellency Marshal. The current Gallic state is facing very big problems. You need to continue to contribute. Raymond Poencaré also said.

Under such circumstances, Marshal Xiafei withdrew his resignation request.

“Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Second Commander. It is imperative that we evacuate Orleans, and I am afraid that we must continue to retreat south, all the way to Toulouse. For a while and a half, the Gauls could not hit Toulouse in the south, where we could regroup. Marshal Xia Fei suggested.

“We have lost most of our army, and we have lost the entire northern territory. Our demographic resources and industrial strength have already suffered a heavy blow, will we be able to continue to fight the Germans? “Reneviani is clearly desperate for the future of the Gallic state.

Raymond Ncaré nodded, and although he didn’t want to admit it, he knew that this was the real situation now.

The country of Gaul has been fatally damaged and is finished.

Seeing such a situation, Marshal Xia Fei couldn’t help but sigh.

The supreme leaders of the Gallic kingdom have no courage, how can this battle continue?

Or rather, the entire Gallic kingdom has been crushed in this war, physically and mentally, it has been destroyed.

“Alas, Your Excellency, Your Excellency, Second Commander, in any case, let us evacuate Orleans first and retreat to Toulouse. The Germans are about to fight, and after we retreat to the south, we will plan in the long run! Marshal Xia Fei sighed.

Raymond Poencaré and René Viviani both nodded in agreement.

The army of the Germanic Empire has approached Orleans, and it is impossible to resist with their current army, and they must continue to retreat south, or escape.

In case of being caught by the Germans, then everything is finished, there is no future at all. They can only be left to the Germans to dispose of them at will and slaughter them!
