I'm guessing you're asking about the evacuation of the British Expeditionary Force from Dunkirk.

There were about 335,000 troops evacuated, including some 30,000 French. The bulk of the French forces were elsewhere, south of the Seine River. The effect of the German attack through the Ardennes had been to drive a wedge between the British and French. The gap widened as the British went one direction, toward the Channel ports, and the French withdrew southward.
