The Battle of Orleans, The Hundred Years' War of the Evil Dragon: Chapter 57 Long-lost Testimonials on the Shelves · Eventful Autumn

It’s indeed a long-lost testimonial. I still remember the last time I wrote a testimonial. It was probably at the end of 20 years. When I wrote that Pandaren, it’s almost two years now.

But it is obvious that it is not a good idea to put it on the shelf now, the interim posts are gone, the book review area is also blocked, and there is even such an extremely troublesome thing as reviewing before posting—to be honest, facing this kind of overweight , I really can’t write a single word.When I think about not only not being able to see everyone's posts after writing this chapter, but even having to wait until tomorrow for everyone to see the content, my scalp becomes numb and my eyes turn black.

So I can only do more, since there is no content itself, let everyone watch more, so at least it will be fun to watch.

In fact, I don't want to put it on the shelves now, but there is no other way. It is the result of a week of procrastination to put it on the shelves now, and there is no way to delay it any longer.I don't know when you will see this testimonial, whether it is on the [-]th or the [-]th, I can only say that I will write as much as possible first, and I hope that the review will release the chapters to me sooner.

So, if you are interested in this story, I hope you will continue to read it.

In addition, the new book asks for votes.

The Battle of Orleans, The Hundred Years' War of the Evil Dragon: Chapter 58 Chapter 57 The strong are always alone ([-] words for tickets)

This is something that almost all kings will worry about.

Especially Charles VII, he had already witnessed the bloody struggles of power ministers since he was a child. Whether it was the Burgundian faction or the Armagnac faction, these power ministers really had no scruples when they fought, and they didn't care at all. Don't look down on the king.

I think back when the Burgundian faction and the Armagnac faction fought, they were no longer limited to mutual attacks on the court, and even sending assassins to each other was no longer enough to satisfy them. Everything can be done - whenever he thinks of this, Charles VII can't help but think of those Burgundians, who are obviously also part of France, but ran to lead the way for the English, it was really hateful.

Of course, the current situation is different from that of the past, and Joan of Arc is far from developing to the point where the power is overwhelming.But the question is... Can Joan achieve power?

can.

Absolutely.

When I was in the rear, Charles VII's understanding of Joan of Arc was limited to those exaggerated military newspapers. The frontline generals would always exaggerate the battles they faced, and Charles VII could understand this kind of thinking. The idea of ​​getting more military merits—but it wasn't until he came to the front that he realized that what the military newspaper said was not exaggerated at all, and it even seemed a little conservative.

Leading a team to break through the city in the military newspaper is essentially breaking the city alone, and leading a team to attack in the military newspaper is also a front arrow with one person as the formation - if it weren't for such a living figure in front of him, Charles VII would even I would also think that I was listening to some fairy tales in ancient legends.

There are even rumors that Joan of Arc once fought a dragon...

This is a bit too much, and Charles VII didn't take it seriously. After all, although there are legends about giant dragons everywhere, no one has seen this thing with their own eyes.However, being able to be said to be fighting a dragon, Joan of Arc's influence among the soldiers has already been seen.

Not everyone is worthy of such a fantasy story.To be praised by the soldiers as a hero means that Joan of Arc is almost the same as the hero in ancient legends in the hearts of the soldiers.

This is an extremely terrifying influence, which even faintly reminded Charles VII of the founding monarch of France. Of course, Joan of Arc is still loyal to France and has no second thoughts, but Joan of Arc is far from reaching own limit.

Just like now, everyone is celebrating the enthronement ceremony, but Joan ran to attack Paris on his own. If the capital is really conquered by Joan... then what's the matter with him?

Everyone knows that Joan of Arc saved France and regained the former capital, but what about him?What about Charles VII?Who will remember him?Who else would know him?

"……really."

After a moment of silence, Charles VII nodded.

"The master of high merit... really has this risk."

Thinking of this, Charles VII turned to look at Cole beside him.

Since the money bag in his hand said so, it must have thought in his heart.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Cole lowered his voice.

After Charles VII frowned, he still nodded.

Immediately afterwards, the messengers hurriedly sent the first order after Charles VII ascended the throne to the city of Paris, and sent it to the bloody battlefield.

----------

Under the city of Paris, in a temporary siege camp.

Joan of Arc once again withdrew back with the heavy armored warrior group, and this was the first time that some of her troops were attrition-although the double armor with a layer of plate armor outside the chain armor was already the top defense at the moment, there was no conventional Weapons can break it open, but there is actually a small stone-shooting cannon set up above the city of Paris.

The deliberately small stone-shooting cannon is only used for close combat. As long as this heavy weapon hits, it can shock people to death even through armor.And small cannons like this... Paris is everywhere.

This is just one aspect of it. There are still many difficult places in the city of Paris, such as reinforced city gates, urns, inclined walls, and the most annoying shooting towers.The towers protruding from the city wall just formed an angle with the position of the city gate. If they wanted to attack the city gate, they would definitely face double or even multiple long-range strikes.

That's right, the city of Paris in front of me is completely different from the fortresses that Joan of Arc had breached before, or in other words, this is the first time she has really come into contact with siege warfare—it's not that she hasn't tried it before, but she still has it anyway. Unable to get in, the two impacts were stuck in the urn, and even the heavy armored warrior group began to be damaged.

This is no longer a problem that can be solved with blood and courage alone.

In other words, her bravery could not solve this problem.

It might be enough to replace it with that foreigner. After all, that big knife alone is no longer usable by humans.If the military power of that foreigner had reached its peak, he might not be able to break through the gate of the city with a single blow—but Joan of Arc was unable to do this.Although she also has strength far beyond ordinary people, it is obviously not so exaggerated.

However, this is only a possibility, it is Joan's imagination, only the actual words...

"Don't bother him."

Joan shook her head and sighed, snuffing out the idea of ​​lighting the wolf smoke.

This is her war, and it is also the war of the French, whether it is her or the French, after all, they need to grow up to be able to stand on their own.

"So, think of a way..."

Wiping off the blood stains on the armor, Joan didn't even change the armor, just sitting in the camp tent in a daze.

Her mind went blank, and she really couldn't think of how to deal with the situation.You must know that the reason why she has been able to quickly attack the city all the time is to use herself as the front arrow to quickly break through the city. Now that this method does not work...then her disadvantage in military strength will be highlighted.

There are less than two hundred heavy armored soldiers and more than three thousand soldiers from the second echelon. This is already the entire force under her command.

Perhaps this kind of force is more than enough for encounters in the wild, or for the eradication of small strongholds, but to break through the city of Paris... this is a bit too far away.

With only this little force, she couldn't even do the most basic siege.

However, she is not without her own advantages. At least this far-superior force is already quite rare—but right now she needs to find a way to maximize this outstanding personal force in the siege battle. role.

This is the test for a general.If she wants to continue, she must solve this problem independently.

or……

"... Withdrawal?"

Looking at the envoy who hurried into the tent, Joan frowned slightly.

"Why do you want to withdraw? Our army has already taken advantage, and now we only need to think of a way to pry that open... What did you say???"

As if hearing something unbelievable, Joan's voice suddenly rose eight degrees.

"Say it again? Why do you want me to go back?"

"A marriage, my lord."

He clearly said respectful words, but the face of this court attendant was filled with an inexplicable sense of superiority.

"Because of your outstanding achievements, His Majesty the King has decided to marry you...Of course, your origin may be a bit humble compared to the royal blood, but your heroic achievements have already proved your nobility, not to mention your appearance And decent enough not to disgrace the royal lineage, you are qualified to be king's..."

"enough."

Joan's face darkened completely.

"If that's all you want to say, then you can go back. As for what I said just now, I will pretend that I didn't hear it... Next time, remember to send something useful, such as the architectural design of Paris."

"...My lord, you are really dedicated to fighting, which is admirable."

The face of the court attendant also turned cold.

"But do you really know what you're doing?"

"……What do you mean?"

Joan's fist clenched unconsciously.

"Are you threatening me?"

"It's not a threat, it's just a statement of interest to you."

The court attendant was expressionless.

"Sure enough, Mr. Cole is right. With your background, you cannot understand this at the first time... The marriage between you and the royal family is not just a matter of two people, but two forces, two forces The matter between. The king who represents the royal family, and you who represent the emerging generals, if you can combine, the royal family can completely trust you and your subordinates, and you and your subordinates will also receive the full support of the royal family , after all, you are already standing on the same path..."

"that's it?"

Without hesitation, Joan interrupted the court attendant's tirade.

"That's all you want to say?"

"...Don't you think these things are not important?"

The palace attendant whose speech was interrupted became more and more ugly.

"Or, do you want to fight against the king's will? Do you want to rebel?"

"...the king would not say such things."

Taking a deep breath, Joan shook her head.

It's just mutual trust, which is the foundation of the foundation for Joan of Arc who has been on the battlefield. Every soldier who goes to the battlefield must trust his comrades unconditionally, just because if he can't do this, She couldn't even survive - but it was such a simple thing that Charles VII couldn't trust her.

Even though she has made so many contributions, Charles VII still wants to use some more outrageous means?

marriage?What are you kidding?

She really wanted to save France with her own efforts, but she never thought of doing it this way!

"So, the king doesn't say these things."

Saying this, Joan's hand was already on the scabbard at her waist.

"Our king is wise and powerful, so it is naturally impossible for him to say such foolish words as a child."

"You, you actually slandered the king..."

The body of the court attendant began to tremble.

"Sure enough, you have long been disobedient! You want to rebel! You want to rebel!"

"Conspiracy? I think you are the one who conspired!"

Clang clang clang sword out of its sheath, Joan pointed the sword at the distorted face of the court attendant.

"The king will definitely not be able to say such nonsense! You must be falsely passing on the king's will! Using the name of the king to tell lies, and even deliberately alienate the frontline generals, it is simply treason!"

"you……"

Seeing that Joan of Arc had swung her sharp sword and was about to cut it, the court attendant ran away in a hurry.

"You wait for me! The king will not let you go!"

"..."
