It is very difficult to remove the leader of a country in an abnormal way. Most countries have to launch a coup and fight for half a year and several months, with rivers of blood flowing.

France is too simple.

You don't know how the French Prime Minister will resign. It may be due to lack of ability, chaos in his private life, or an unintentional disaster.

Albert Salo was down on his luck.

At this sensitive time, whoever becomes the French Prime Minister will be unlucky. Sean Ferguson's interview has not yet been published in the newspapers, and here Albert Sarro has resigned.

Albert Sarro was succeeded as Prime Minister of France by Camille Chaudan.

This is also a divine man.

After the outbreak of World War II in another time and space, Camille Chaudan, then deputy prime minister of Paul Reynaud's government, was described by the world as "intellectually disabled" because he was the first to propose armistice negotiations with Germany.

In this time and space, World War II has not yet broken out.

However, Camille Chaudan has begun to show his "intellectual loss" side.

The first thing Camille Chaudang did after taking office was to go to Nyasaland Military Industry and Nyasaland Aviation and ask for the return of the "Arms Purchase Agreement" deposit paid in advance by Leonard Capet.

Just to clarify, the deposit is refundable, but the deposit is non-refundable.

Therefore, Nyasaland Military Industries and Nyasaland Airlines not only refused to refund the money, but also demanded that the French government pay the second payment required by the contract.

In order to meet the needs of France, Nyasaland Military Industry and Nyasaland Aviation have customized new weapons for the French government. In order to produce these weapons, existing production lines have to be adjusted and transformed, which requires costs.

Now that the French government says it doesn’t want it, it won’t. All the early efforts of Nyasaland Military Industry and Nyasaland Aviation have been in vain. Does the French government still have the nerve to ask for money?

It would be great if Nyasaland Military Industry and Nyasaland Airlines do not sue the French government!

Not to mention, this kind of lawsuit is not without precedent.

If Nyasaland Military Industries and Nyasaland Aviation really sue the French government.

Then the happiest people must be the French media people.

And the British melon-eating crowd watching the fun.

This melon is much more interesting than the little thing in the crotch of the British aristocrat.

Camille Chaudan's demented behavior goes beyond this.

While seeking a refund, Camille Chaudan also called the Rand Bank and the Bank of Rhodesia, hoping to raise funds for the continued construction of the Maginot Line through the issuance of bonds.

Of course, Camille Chaut is capable of becoming Prime Minister. In order to increase the success rate, the French government even approached Christian and promised that if the Rand Bank and the Bank of Rhodesia help raise funds, the French government will consider building the

The construction of the Maginot Line was handed over to Christian's construction company.

It's really amazing that the Maginot Line, regarded as a life barrier by the French, was actually handed over to a foreign construction company for execution.

This is as outrageous as Southern Africa handing over the task of producing "Dolphin" submarines to American shipyards.

But this kind of thing is normal in France.

"The French began to build the Maginot Line after the end of World War I. It has been going on for more than ten years now, but it has not been completely completed. Based on the current progress of the project, it still takes more time to completely complete the Maginot Line.

50 years." Christian dismissed the efficiency of the French. In southern Africa, it would take at most two years to complete the project.

I would like to thank the French labor unions for their efforts. Without the active actions of the labor unions, the Maginot Line might have been completed long ago.

France, like southern Africa, actually has huge human resources in its colonies.

However, France's human resources cannot be used rationally, and the root cause is the obstruction of French trade unions.

The French trade unions also have a very good reason, that is, the French government should leave more jobs to the French rather than to the native French colonies.

This reason of the French trade unions forced the French government to surrender. This is the greatest political correctness.

As a result, during the construction of the Maginot Line, more and more problems arose.

First of all, the wages of French workers are definitely higher than those of colonial workers.

Moreover, French workers also have many demands, such as an eight-hour work system and a five-day work system. As long as the workers' demands are not met, they will go on strike if they disagree, and the French government is in a state of distress.

In addition to salary, French workers also have better benefits.

Not to mention three meals a day, you have to rest when it’s too hot, you have to rest when it’s too cold, you have to rest when it rains, you have to rest when it’s windy. The welfare of the workers is indeed guaranteed, and the construction schedule is not taken into account.

Leonard Capet knows this well.

"For French construction contractors, the longer the construction of the Maginot Line is delayed, the better, so that they can make more profits - the same goes for French politicians. Every French government will

The defense line is widely publicized as the achievement of this government. The fooled French people pinned France's security on the Maginot Line. France's current problem is not only the Maginot Line, but also that there are no people willing to join the army - "At the beginning

The "Saint Roque" port is the responsibility of Christian Construction Company, and Christian has always paid close attention to France.

Before the outbreak of the last world war, France had a population of 41.6 million and Germany had a population of 65.06 million.

As of 1933, France's population was 41.5 million and Germany's was 71.1 million.

It has been nearly 20 years since the last world war broke out.

The babies that were born back then have now grown up. France has been facing a military crisis since 1930, and now the situation is getting more and more serious.

Before 1930, France could still fill its human resource gap through immigration.

After the outbreak of the economic crisis, the performance of the French government has made more and more people lose confidence. Even the French colonies no longer regard the French mainland as the first choice for immigrants. France has reached desperation.

"The Rand Bank can underwrite the French government's bonds, but it must use France's gold reserves as collateral!" Ada is cruel and ruthless. If France wants a loan, it can first send the gold reserves of the French government to southern Africa.

Although various countries have successively canceled the gold standard system after the outbreak of the economic crisis, gold, as the final guarantee of the country's payment ability, is still regarded as the most important reserve.

No matter how France is, it is still an old colonial country. It has accumulated a lot of gold reserves over countless years.

The amount of gold reserves in various countries is highly confidential. Southern Africa actually does not know how much gold reserves France has. It is generally estimated to be around 2,000 tons.

At current exchange rates, 2,000 tons of gold is worth approximately R2 billion.

Southern Africa's gold reserves are 4,300 tons.

Here you can see the role of Rand Gold Mine.

With the mining of gold mines in Australia, the gold reserves in southern Africa will increase year by year.

"Yes, we have to make sure that the French are unable to repay the loan -" Stoudemire was also ruthless and showed no mercy when he added insult to injury.

"It is better to transport the gold reserved by the French government to our southern Africa than to leave it to the Germans -" Henry went even further, directly predicting France's failure.

Henry was actually quite concerned about the Maginot Line.

The main structure of the Maginot Line was reinforced concrete, which was extremely expensive to build.

The French government has high hopes for the Maginot Line, regardless of cost. The infantry obstacles are all made of metal piles. The armor thickness of the armored fortress is more than 300 mm. There are as many as 5,800 permanent fortifications built along the entire defense line.

Such a large project will definitely use a lot of steel, and the French government has always been a major customer of Favalte Steel Group.

"Then it's decided. If the French government agrees, the Rand Bank and the Bank of Rhodesia can help the French government raise funds." Roque finally made the decision. Compared with the Maginot Line, arms purchase orders are not that important.

The French government has invested 5 billion francs in the Maginot Line, which is equivalent to about 200 million rands.

Two hundred million rand is not much more than a 120 million military purchase order, but if the French government hands over the project to Christian's construction company, the final cost will definitely be much more than 120 million.

Depending on Christian's character, it is normal to double the number.

After receiving the commitment from the Southern African Federal Government, Camille Chaudan was very excited and took the initiative to move to the Southern African Embassy in France, thanking the Southern African Federal Government for its selfless help.

"You're welcome, Southern Africa has always been France's most loyal friend, and we should help each other." Joseph Judson, Southern Africa's ambassador to France, is of French descent, which is also the habit of Southern Africa.

When it comes to appointing ambassadors, southern Africa is more concerned with doing as the Romans do.

Therefore, most of the staff of the embassy and consulates in France have French ancestry, and most of the staff of the embassy and consulates in Germany are of German descent.

"Yes, Southern Africa and France have always been friends, so shouldn't friends be generous and selfless?" Camille Chaudan made a pun.

"Uh, Mr. Prime Minister, what do you mean?" Joseph Judson had a bad premonition.

"I mean, since we are friends, the federal government of Southern Africa should not covet France's gold." Camille Chaut said seriously.

Joseph Judson was speechless, I was just talking about "friends", why did you take it seriously?

Besides, even brothers have to settle accounts openly, so shouldn’t friends be able to withdraw money from each other?

"The French government has always had excellent credibility, we have strong payment capabilities, we have a developed financial system, and Paris is the financial center of the world-" Camille Chaudan gushed.

"Wait a minute, Your Excellency Prime Minister, since France has strong payment capacity, why does it need to raise funds through the Bank of Southern Africa? There are also many banks in Paris -" Joseph Judson interrupted directly. There are indeed banks in Paris, but the banks in Paris

But they were unwilling to lend money to the French government.

This itself speaks volumes.

"The banks in Paris - humph, those people are all vampires!" Camille Chaudan was indignant. It is estimated that Camille Chaudan had already tried this before approaching the Rand Bank and the Rhodesian Bank.

.

The results speak for themselves.
