C3015 Lone City Ba Zan (2/2)

Opening his briefcase, he saw two envelopes sealed with wax. One of the aides took the letter and used a paper knife to pry open it.

”Marshal …” It's a letter from Prince Augustus outside the city! ”

The one who directly commanded the Mace's siege this time around was Prince Augustus, whose troops were under Steinmetz's command before the battle to the end. The Prince was assigned to direct the Mace's siege.

The prince could not be considered a famous general in terms of battles, but he would not make any big mistakes either. The fact that he was sent to the Mace City to direct the battles also exposed Bismark's and Lao Maoqi's cautious attitude.

Based on their understanding of Mace, these two were even deeper than Xiao Letian. They were afraid of attacking this fortress ruthlessly, so they sent a steady prince to lead the charge.

Towards this prince from Hanover, Marshal Ba Zan had great respect for him. He opened the letter and read it carefully.

This letter was not long, it was just a simple daily greeting. After that, he hoped that Marshal Ba Zan would be able to negotiate with him secretly after leaving the city tomorrow.

The Prussian army will definitely protect the Marshal's safety!

Ba Zan did not say anything, he only passed the message to the generals behind him to read it, causing all the generals to be thrown into chaos. Go to Prussian's territory to negotiate? What if they detain the marshal? ”

”You can't be fooled! If the Prince wants to negotiate, then let him enter the city! We, the French, are here to keep him safe... ”

”Yes!” That's right. Let the prince enter the city … For a dignified ruler of the Hanover Kingdom to not even have this much courage? ”

The two officers of the Prussian army were not angry at all. Facing these people who were making things difficult for them, they merely said calmly, ”Didn't the Marshal read the second secret letter?”

Ba Zan frowned as he got the aide to open the second envelope. In the end, as soon as the text appeared, the marshal's expression became serious.

The short line of words revealed a shocking amount of information, and the final signature made it so that he could not believe his eyes!

”Francois, my old friend, see this letter and ask you to believe the messenger, believe everything he says, and accept his orders... Your Majesty and your old friend... Charles Louis. Napoleon. ”Bonaparte!”

This was actually a letter personally written by the French Emperor. If Ba Zan still wasn't able to recognize this handwriting, his eyeballs would have been deducted!

His hands were trembling, and after a long while, he still could not recover from his shock. He looked at the two officers from the Prussian army and asked: ”You are the secret envoys?”

”No …” The real emissary is outside the city, waiting to meet you... ”In order to express our sincerity, we have released a captive, I hope he can explain things more clearly!”

The two officers of Prussian army withdrew from the HQ and waited quietly outside the door. The major was facing the Marshal and the other generals alone.

Some of the lower ranked officers had already been chased out. Other than Major Yue Sefu, the rest of the officers in the house were all officers that were at the general level.

”Yue Sefu! Who was the emissary? ”Who's outside the city? What happened outside …”

Yue Sefu's face was pale white. ”I'm extremely sorry, I have been imprisoned in the POW camp the entire time. The seal placed on information by the Prussian is very strong, so I'm not too clear on the situation of the battle …”

”But I am sure of one thing. Paris has been completely surrounded, and Prussia has deployed three hundred thousand troops …”

Ba Zan's expression became a little better, ”Only three hundred thousand … Not much, not much... Paris can hold! ”

But Yue Sefu's next words made the Marshal shocked. This time, the person who brought His Majesty's secret letter was none other than … It was actually … It's actually the head of the Chinese clan... Xiao Letian! ”

”AHH!” When everyone heard this, they immediately shouted in unison, ”How is this possible!”
