C2900 Goodbye, French Emperor! (2/2)
”Come, let's go and take the captives!”
At that moment, Sedan had already become a chaotic scene of surrender. French Emperor circled the city with his sword, and all the soldiers knew that it was all over.
The civil officials of the Prussian Army took their iron trumpets and walked to the center of the French lines to start shouting.
”Everyone, hold your weapons high above your head and use your own troops as your base to go to the assembly point to register … We will give preferential treatment to the captives, and we will give you food and medicine after we register! ”
”Don't make a futile struggle. The war is over. There's no need to bleed anymore … The French Emperor has already offered up his sword, the war is over! ”
Lieutenant Xia Fei bit his lips with all his might, his face filled with grief, and the dark red blood was swallowed into his stomach!
However, no matter how much unresigned they felt, there was nothing they could do. French Emperor had already surrendered, and all their morale was gone.
The surrounding veterans of the artillery gathered around the first lieutenant, who led them to the nearest registration point.
However, the proud Xia Qianyu refused to raise her hands up high in surrender. When the hundred plus of them approached the registration point, the Prussian army on the other side quickly became vigilant.
”Raise your hands above your head... Say you, raise your hands above your head and let us see your weapon! ”Hurry up …”
In this hundred odd France Army soldiers, only Xia Fei did not surrender with both hands. All of Prussian army's rifles were aimed at him!
The French veteran beside him quickly whispered, ”First lieutenant, let's raise our hands. Don't engage in unnecessary conflict …”
”NO!” A warrior can be killed but not humiliated! ”
Hualala … Just as Prussian army was about to open fire and pull the trigger, a voice suddenly came from behind the registration point.
”Wait a moment …” This young lieutenant was very interesting! actually dare to use the famous Chinese saying? ”
The voice came from a Chinese general who was visiting the battlefield. Coincidentally, he heard the famous French phrase that was spoken by the Chinese general.
In Europe, France was the first country to be interested in Chinese culture. When the Sun King was in power, many translators translated some of the Chinese ideologies.
Many Chinese proverbs were translated into French and passed down!
Sima Yun was attracted by the lieutenant's words and deliberately walked over, but when he saw that it was such a young lieutenant, he was surprised.
”So young?” Is your first lieutenant a fake? ” Sima Yun asked.
Xia Fei's face turned red, ”General, you are humiliating me!” ”I am a student of the Empire's Polytechnic Academy in Paris, and I am a student of an official military academy!”
”With my results, I can grant you the rank of lieutenant! My performance on the battlefield has also proven that I am competent! ”
The surrounding French Veterans also started to clamor, ”Yes, we are all scattered soldiers, all formed by the first lieutenant at the last moment, a temporary organization on the battlefield!”
”The lieutenant led us to three beautiful ambushes! If not for the commander's incompetence, we would not have been able to fail! ”
Sima Yun and the eighteen year old first lieutenant looked at each other for a long time, then suddenly laughed at Xia Fei who had an unswerving determination.
”Alright, since you are a brave warrior and an outstanding military officer, I can give you an exception … This first lieutenant did not have to raise his hand to surrender! ”Anyway, they can't change anything …”
After saying that, Sima Yun wanted to leave, but he did not expect Xia Fei to actually rush forward and grab the reins of the warhorse!
”General!” Just because we failed this time around does not mean that the France will fail. Evil will never be able to defeat justice! ”
