Chapter 1456 (1/2)
Now that the central government has surrendered, they can't even guarantee the supply of the army.
At present, there are 70000 people stationed in Orleans.
How much food is consumed every day.
When all the food in the city is finished, where are they going to find food?
The only way is to rob the civilians in the wall and surrounding areas of food.
It's ironic that the troops defending the country end up robbing the domestic civilians of food.
Most of the generals present would not allow this irony to happen.
In any case, the situation they are facing is dead
A dead end without any hope
……
……
”Let's surrender...”
A general said in a low, lifeless voice.
”The war... Is over...”
”Even Tuli has planted the banner of the British Empire... It's meaningless to fight again...”
”If you surrender now, you can save the lives of some garrison soldiers in the city as much as possible...”
If the general had said such words before, he would definitely be attacked by everyone.
Now, after the voice of the general fell, no one said anything.
No one immediately jumped out to refute the general's remarks.
At a time when we can't see the significance of continuing to fight, everyone has no fighting spirit anymore
……
……
”No...”
Just then, an old voice sounded from a corner of the long table.
All the people present went in succession.
”We... Still have hope...” the veteran continued.
This veteran is Leo.
At the moment when Denis has died, there are only Barr and Leo left in the ”three veterans of the Lorraine Empire”.
”Although his majesty has issued an edict of surrender and unconditionally surrendered to the British Empire.”
”But I believe - there must be a lot of people across the country who don't want to be britannians.”
”These people who still have the will to resist are our hope for the restoration of the country.”
”We need to send people with appeal out of the city and gather all the resistance forces in the country.”
”As long as we succeed in rallying all the resistance forces in China, there is still hope for the revival of this country.”
”So - we must send the saint out of Orleans safely!”
”As long as there is the flag of the 'Saint', there will be a large number of people with lofty ideals who are unwilling to yield to the britannian empire!”
”Not only should the 'Saint' be safely sent out of the city, but also Barr be safely sent out of the city!”
”With the appeal of the 'Saint', coupled with Barr's military ability, we can rebuild an army like steel in a very short time...”
Before Leo finished, Jill patted the table directly.
”Enough!”
”Your Majesty has issued an edict of surrender!”
”The war is over!”
”Stop fighting!”
”Lord Leo, your plan just now sounds good, but what are the chances of success!”
”We have no hope of winning!”
”Until this time, will you continue to reluctantly let Na go to risk?!”
Jill is one of the many generals who have lost their fighting spirit.
Jill, who had no motivation to fight any more, became angry when he heard the plan put forward by Leo just now. He couldn't help patting the table and got up, colliding with the old generation he always respected.
