>heh, personaliches nicht kind

the problem wasn't that the germans went through the forest and the french thought they couldn't. the problem was that the french army was organized and used like it was still a ww1 army. so the very large and modern french army was unable to properly counter attack.

De Gaul warned them and even wrote the book on blitzkreig. If the french army was lead by him between wars. It would have been able to beat the German Army back across Belgium.

Heh, you made me use 10% of my power level.

>>2591332
the line was broken through frontally aswell
french defense was a complete disaster

not that you should expect much from a nation which suffered the most in ww1, being told its time to do it all over again

Psh..

Reich has stepped, kid.

You can't say very large when the fighting personele were identically numbered on each side, and only when two British divisions were counted.
You can't say modern when their equipment dispersion doctrine was what lost them every battle.
You can't say anything you just did and be correct.

>>2595365
Very large doesnt mean identical.
And he obviously talked about tanks and material.

Wrong
The Maginot Line was defeated from the French side (the non-fortified side) after the German army had invaded through Belgium

The Maginot Line did work, its purpose was to force the Germans to go through Belgium and it did that job admirably. What happened afterwards is another story, however.

Actually the Serbs suffered the highest percentage loss of manpower.

It's strange the French did not hold on longer then they did.

>>2597028
What the hell are you talking about? France held on longer than the Serbian dominated Yugoslavia; the occupation of the latter took only 12 days to accomplish.

>>2597079
he's talking about WWI
you are talking about WWII

>>2597265

No, he isn't.
>It's strange the French did not hold on longer then they did.

Is not applicable to either war, and the French didn't "hold on" in WW1, they won the war, or at least were on the winning side without ever having been conquered.

>>2597282
>or at least were on the winning side

Given that they were the country that contributed the most on the winning side, I think we can safely say they won
