D. Because the French soldiers wanted to surrender

The answer is C. Because of the large number of German soldiers and tanks

Explanation:

On 10 May 1940, German bombs were dropped on targets in the Netherlands and Belgium. The French army then suspected that Germany would attack according to Schlieffen's plan. This attack was carried out prominently, paratroopers deployed, 1,000 Luftwaffe aircraft were centered there, including three Panzer divisions. France thinks that Army Group B is the backbone of the German offensive. French-British troops storm into northern Belgium to face Army Group B.

On June 5, when the city of Dunkirk fell to the Germans after the evacuation of the British army was complete, Hitler deployed his 10 panzer divisions with 133 infantry divisions southward, towards Paris. Although some parts of France provided good resistance, the German Panzer flood was unbearable. On June 10 the French government left Paris. Four days later Paris fell without resistance.
