I was a tycoon in World War I: Starting to save France
Chapter 55 After-sales Service
It's still a medical tent.
The medic took out half of Laurent's tooth from his mouth as he made painful guttural sounds. It was the fragment that hung on the gum after being broken.
"Major, are you really okay?" Captain Jules asked, "Should we report to the general?"
"Are you crazy?" Laurent glared: "You have to report such a small thing to the general? He is commanding the army to chase the Germans, and we are wasting his precious time because of this?"
Captain Jules looked embarrassed. Is this a trivial matter?
It's only your first day and you've already been beaten twice, and it doesn't seem to stop!
At this time, the phone rang. Captain Jules stood up and picked up the phone, then turned to Laurent and whispered: "It's the general!"
…
Gallieni felt inexplicably anxious.
This bastard system made him fearful as if his hands and feet were tied to fight the enemy!
At this time, although the military obtained a batch of side three-wheelers and distributed them to soldiers, the effect was not satisfactory.
The French soldiers thought that Colonel Browne's victory would be repeated, that the Germans would flee under the three-wheel charge, and that large numbers of Germans would fall under the Maxim machine guns...
However, the German losses were minimal, and none of the three rounds could come back!
A lot of bad reviews were immediately reported to Gallieni:
"What the hell is this?"
"It can't stop bullets at all, and it can't aim at the enemy!"
"This thing is useless, we must have been fooled!"
…
Gallieni had confirmed Major Browne's record, so he believed that there was a problem with the tactics rather than the failure of the third round.
Gallieni should have called Charles to discuss it with him.
But this will be regarded by capitalists as a "conspiracy" between the military and arms dealers.
Recall Major Brownie from the battlefield with practical experience?
This will not only affect the battle on the front line, but more importantly, Major Browne's tactics were taught by Charles. He is likely to be in a state of "knowing what is happening but not knowing why." He himself cannot explain why.
Therefore, it has to be Ciel!
In the end, Gallieni decided to let Laurent resolve the matter. He called Laurent:
"I heard that something happened to you?"
"I want to discuss something with Ciel in secret. Can it be done?"
"As soon as possible, this is important!"
Laurent on the other end of the phone was stuffing cotton in his mouth to stop the bleeding, and his voice was a little unclear:
"No, no, it's just a small problem. Everything is under control, General!"
"Of course, it can be done!"
"Okay, I'll do it right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Laurent was silent for a while. He wanted to talk to Charles, but he also had to do it in secret without letting others know. How could he do it?
"Kidnapped" like last time?
This time it will be more difficult and dangerous. Those workers in the factory are not easy to mess with!
Wait until night to inform Charles?
The general said "as soon as possible". Although I don't know how long "as soon as possible" means, it will definitely not be until night!
So……
Laurent's eyes suddenly lit up, a proud smile appeared on his face, and he murmured: "Of course this little thing won't trouble me!"
He turned to Jules and ordered: "Go and bring Charles, I want to interrogate him personally!"
Jules, who was drinking water from a cup, was frightened by these words. He coughed twice and spit out the water. He looked at Laurent with fear in his eyes: "Interrogation?"
"Yes, interrogation!" Laurent said expressionlessly: "We have received information that the Germans are imitating three-wheelers. We have reason to suspect that the motorcycle factory has leaked the technology. Of course, we must bring Charles for questioning. What's going on!"
"You're crazy!" Jules looked at Laurent in disbelief: "The Germans captured the tricycle, and they can imitate it without Charles providing any technology..."
"Of course I know!" Laurent looked up at Jules: "The point is that this is the only way to complete a secret discussion!"
"But this plan will also kill us..." Jules replied.
Laurent interrupted Jules with his eyes.
Jules knew what Laurent meant: We are soldiers, Jules, can this be more dangerous than the hail of bullets on the battlefield? Then go to the battlefield and try it!
Jules had no choice but to obey and carry out the order.
As he turned around, he thought that as long as he didn't let others know that this was an interrogation, he would be fine if he "invited" Charles in a nice voice.
Unexpectedly, Laurent added at the end: "It's an 'interrogation', Jules, you have to tell others!"
Jules looked desperate. He doubted whether he could come out of the factory alive!
In the end, Jules chose a tricky way. He went deep into the "Magic Cave" without any guards, holding a gift box in his hand. It looked like he was going to visit Charles... Only in this way would he not alert those who were watching. , vigilant workers.
When he saw Charles, he clearly told him that this was an "interrogation" and only gave him a meaningful look, so Djoka and Charles immediately understood what was going on.
Charles asked, "Are you going to put handcuffs on me or something?"
This makes it look more like an interrogation.
But this suggestion frightened Jules: "No, no, Master Charles! That's enough. Also...if you can, please keep smiling, and we can find some topics to talk about while walking!"
"Is that so?" Charles looked confused. It didn't seem like this was how they usually arrested people for interrogation.
Charles did not object and did as Captain Jules said.
For some reason, when Captain Jules walked out of the factory gate, he breathed a sigh of relief!
"Thank you very much, Master Charles!" Captain Jules' eyes were full of sincerity. Charles' cooperation could be said to have saved his life.
...
The furnishings of Laurent's headquarters were very simple, with only a table and two wooden chairs. There was no time to hang up the lights. In addition, it was cloudy, making the tent look a little dim.
Laurent lowered the door curtain and nodded to Charles respectfully: "Master Charles, General Gallieni wants to talk to you. I can only use this method..."
Charles nodded to show that he understood. There was no need to say too much gossip. General Gallieni might still be waiting on the other end of the phone.
After the call was connected, Gallieni said humorously: "It's time for you to provide after-sales service, little guy, you don't want our order to be limited to this, right?"
"Of course not, General!" Charles replied, and at the same time wondered: "Is there any quality problem with the sidecar?"
That was a British "Victory" brand motorcycle, which had been tested in actual combat in history. It shouldn't need after-sales service as soon as it went into battle, right?
But Charles immediately realized that it might not be after-sales service in this regard. If it was, Gallieni would question it publicly instead of calling him in secretly for "interrogation".
Sure enough, Gallieni replied: "I think it's because you didn't provide the instruction manual!"
