"To face the threat from the British Army, the Flemish Republic has yet to decide whether to accept our troops, so the 33rd Infantry Brigade remains in Brussels. The local Walloon army will coordinate with them."
It's not that the French General Staff looks down on the British Army, but only assigns 3,000 direct troops and less than 7,000 Walloon local troops to handle them.
The western front is truly not France's primary direction of attack, and even if an anomaly occurs, the Third Army stationed in Cologne can quickly advance west to reinforce.
Even if the Marquess of Wellesley personally commands, the British can't break through Holland plus Flanders plus Walloon Region in half a month. This amount of time is enough for reinforcements from Cologne.
As for the deployment situation along the Cologne-Koblenz line, Bertier didn't mention it again because the Crown Prince has just returned from inspecting there.
