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.

Leo was not angry with Jill's rude refutation just now.

But in a calm tone:

"Jill... Do you have the heart to watch our country with the flags of the British Empire..."

"Well..." Jill faltered.

He wanted to refute what Leo just said.

But he couldn't spit out half a word.

"You don't want to just watch our country perish? Isn't it? "

"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we should fight to the last minute for the future of our country - isn't that our duty as soldiers? Am I right? Barr? "

Leo looked to Barr, who had been silent since just now.

"... well." There was no expression on Barr's face. "You're right..."

"Your Excellency Leo..." Gilbert threw a complicated look at Leo, "how are you going to send Jeanne and Barr out of the city? Although the British army did not surround the city, it was watching it all the time. "

"How are you going to get people out of Orleans safely under the surveillance of the British army?"

As soon as Jill's voice fell, Leo immediately replied:

"It's also very simple."

A faint smile appeared on Leo's face.

"Just send bait to attract the attention of the British Army..."

……

……

"Orleans surrendered! Orleans surrendered! "

"Long live! Long live! "

"Orleans head!"

……

Similar cheers could be heard everywhere in the Britannia army barracks north of Orleans.

Just now, a messenger from Orleans came to the British army camp.

Explain the purpose of his trip to Su Cheng - all the defenders in Orleans decided to surrender, asked the generals of the British army to come to receive the troops tomorrow morning, and asked Su Cheng to treat all the soldiers and citizens in Orleans well.

Su Cheng naturally agreed to this request without hesitation.

After all - he wasn't going to do anything to Orleans.

Even if the messenger does not add the request of "please be kind to the soldiers and citizens of Orleans", Su Cheng will not impose any atrocities on the soldiers and citizens of Orleans.

There was no need to hide such good news. At Su Cheng's instigation, the news that "Orleans surrendered" spread all over the army at an extremely fast speed.

Originally, the whole army was ready to suffer a lot to win Orleans.

In the end, he won Orleans without firing an arrow.

There is a feeling of "picking up one's own life", so the morale of all military officers and soldiers is unprecedented.

Their cheers even reached Orleans.

……

……

The next morning, Su Cheng personally led a large army to line up in the Northern Wilderness of Orleans, ready to receive the troops from Orleans.

The north gate of Orleans is wide open.

The first person to leave the city along the open north gate was an old man without armor or weapons.

Wearing ordinary cloth clothes, the old man stood on a convertible car specially used for loading.

Driven by the coachman, the old man rattled towards the British army in front.

Behind the old man was a group of Orleans "original defenders" who were no longer wearing any armor and holding any weapons.

These soldiers have different faces.

Some are dejected.

Some have no expression.

Some sobbed.

Some simply cry.
