Eight hundred and fiftieth eight chapters gambling

"No problem!" Alexander was stunned for a moment and agreed: "Just do what you said!"

From this point of view, Alexander is still much more sophisticated in politics than Montgomery.

The UK actually has no choice, and it has to agree if it doesn’t.

If you don't agree, you will not be able to pass this level... Not only will the plan to attack Italy be completely overturned, but the British intention will also be questioned and the dominance will be challenged to a certain extent.

If you agree, at least there will be no problem in this level in front of you. Let’s talk about what’s going on in the future, let alone if you enter Italy, you may not be really blocked by the enemy.

"It's no point to say it!" Eisenhower was obviously ready. He waved to the adjutant, and the adjutant handed over several prepared documents.

Eisenhower pulled out his pen from his chest pocket and handed it to Alexander with the documents, saying, "General, I need you and Montgomery to sign on it, and of course, I will sign on it."

Montgomery glanced at Alexander, and Alexander laughed and said to Eisenhower: "Does it need to be so formal?"

"Of course!" Eisenhower replied firmly: "This is a very serious matter!"

"I don't think so, Eike (Eisenhower's nickname), this is just our private bet, right?"

Alexander obviously wanted to avoid this program, so that if things are really explained by Zhang Chi, then Britain still has room for maneuver.

"No! This is not a private bet!" Eisenhower insisted: "Let me explain this matter clearly..."

Eisenhower glanced at Zhang Chi beside him and continued, "Gentlemen, I don't care what information you have or what kind of analysis you have or what kind of reasons you have, I only know one thing. Major General Zhang Chi in front of you, he told the situation on the battlefield again and again, but you turned a blind eye to his words again and again. Now, I have enough! We have all!"

As he said that, Eisenhower yang the meeting record: "This record is a piece of evidence. It will prove in the future that Major General Zhang Chi's analysis is correct. I can even guarantee that the future situation will develop like this. We are very clear that attacking Italy is a wrong choice, but you insist on taking us on the wrong path... If you don't agree with what I said, then just sign the record. We don't like being fooled again and again, just like you did on Sicily!"

The conference room suddenly became quiet. Although everyone knew these facts, no one had ever broken the paper for the alliance between Britain and the United States. But now Eisenhower clearly said it, which made the British officers embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

"Relax, General!" said Alexander: "I think there are some misunderstandings in this, and we didn't fool anyone!"

"If not!" Eisenhower said with a stern face: "Then you shouldn't be afraid to sign this meeting minutes, aren't you?"

Alexander was speechless.

Eisenhower was right. If nothing they said at the meeting was lies or fooling Americans, then what's wrong with signing? It was just a written expression of what the British generals said.

"Of course!" Alexander replied, then signed the meeting minutes and pushed it to Montgomery.

They had no choice but to sign.

Eisenhower nodded with satisfaction, and said while putting away the signed meeting minutes: "Gentlemen, let's wait and see if the attack on Italy is as smooth as you said, or whether it is as difficult as Major General Zhang Chi said!"

When leaving the conference room, Eisenhower whispered to Zhang Chi: "It's so fucking good. I've been holding this breath for a long time!"

Zhang Chi understood what Eisenhower was talking about, and he was not easy to be a general... On the one hand, he had to try to coordinate different opinions between Britain and the United States, and on the other hand, he had to be questioned by American officers because of his repeated unfavorable conditions to the United States. He was even angrily called a "traitor" by many American soldiers.

Needless to say, the American soldiers could not imagine that Eisenhower would agree with such unreasonable conditions proposed by the British... For example, Sicily had an apparently unfavorable offensive direction, and later, the obviously unreasonable "stand still", the US military almost became a vassal for serving and sacrificing the British army.

Therefore, Eisenhower, who was in charge of this area, became the target of public criticism.

Of course Eisenhower had his difficulties, but no matter what these difficulties were, he finally made him regain the game and let out a strong anger.

Then Eisenhower politely invited Zhang Chi to his office.

The difference from other American general's offices is that Eisenhower's office has an additional bookshelves filled with various types of books... War seems to have nothing to do with books, and Eisenhower's hobby may be one of the reasons why he will become a president in the future.

Eisenhower poured a glass of wine for Zhang Chi, then handed a thick cigar. After lit each other, Eisenhower said happily: "Guess, what are the British doing now?"

"I think they are doing two things!"

"Which two?"

"Complaint, and think about how to win this bet!"

"It's right!" Eisenhower couldn't help laughing: "They have to try their best not to be blocked by the enemy in front of the Alps, but this is obviously not an easy problem to solve. The Germans are not fools, aren't they?"

"certainly!"

"So, good job!" Eisenhower nodded to Zhang Chi: "One of your suggestions will make us completely change from passive to active... I mean this bet. Regardless of whether the situation you predicted has happened or not, it is actually beneficial to us!"

Of course, Zhang Chi understood what Eisenhower meant.

If the British were right, the United States would just continue to have no dominance, and at the same time, the Allies could successfully attack Germany from Italy... Why not do it?

If the tension and severity are correct, then the United States can use this as a rod to defeat the United Kingdom.

Don't think that this is just a small matter. Political things often expand from a small matter to an out of control, just like the Patton slap incident.
