As the representatives of Germany and France discussed their first meeting, at the military camp outside Paris, Charles de Gaulle, the commander of the Paris defense armored forces, was also meeting Martin, the Commander-in-Chief of the Australasia Expeditionary Force, and the army's third division General.
"General Martin, what brings you here?" Seeing Martin, looking exhausted from the journey, a somewhat depressed de Gaulle couldn't help but be surprised and asked with a puzzled face.
"General de Gaulle, I have already heard about your government's decision," Martin said to de Gaulle, getting straight to the point.
"If Your Excellency is here to mock us, then you have succeeded, and I wish you a not so fond farewell," de Gaulle said, his face growing even more sullen with anger as he mentioned the French government's decision.
"Of course not, General de Gaulle," Martin shook his head, looking seriously at de Gaulle and said, "I just want to ask General de Gaulle one question."
