General Winter was speechless.
Because Shire was right. Secretly intercepting fuel to create difficulties and uncertainties in the war clearly did not align with Britain's interests.
In the end, General Winter sighed and answered helplessly:
"Actually, this isn't entirely the 'Minister of the Navy's' idea, Brigadier. I also hope you can return to the Dardanelles Strait to lead the overall situation."
"Because..."
"There are people losing their lives there every day, hundreds and thousands."
There was an unspoken sadness in General Winter's eyes. He often saw these numbers and felt deeply affected by them.
"You should say that to the 'Minister of the Navy'," Shire replied.
"What?" General Winter didn't understand Shire's point.
Shire responded with a question instead, "Have you forgotten the purpose of the attack on the Dardanelles Strait?"
"Of course not," General Winter defended, "It was to open a new front and break the stalemate."
