"There is a possibility of this, I also know this news from the enemy, Charles VII at the cost of the Holy Maiden and the Heavy Knights, in exchange for the alliance with Burgundy and the help of the Church"

Enemy? Can the enemy's words be believed? What Windwind said reassured some of the die-hard members a little.

"And then there's another piece of news that I just knew," and looking at the reassuring person in it, the wind smiled playfully.

"Most of the towns that were 'captured' during the expedition have rebelled again, and the expeditionary force is currently in a state of isolation"

The major news, which really makes the people present change color, is something that needs to be carefully considered whether it is true or not.

They are now deep in Paris, and it will not be possible to leave in a few days, and if they are betrayed, cut off, and deprived of support, as the Guardians say, then they will face a siege.

Siege from all directions, how many troops poured into Paris in a month They don't know, only that betrayal means the loss of logistics, and there is no support, not even with England to attack, as long as the siege lasts for a while, it will naturally collapse.

"This isn't a joke, did the Guardian confirm it?"

It is an absolute sin to lie about the military at a military meeting, but at this moment everyone hopes that the Guardians are deceiving them, and the stakes are too high.

"I don't believe you can wait a few more days, I guess the news is coming back soon"

The mutual hope of the "......" questioning is not that they don't believe it, but that they are subconsciously resisting it in their hearts.

"Xiao Yu won't lie to you"

The "......" was briefly quiet, and an unusual atmosphere surrounded the tent, and Joan of Arc affirmed her solidarity. So many people finally showed despair. The last doubts disappear. They may have been betrayed.

"Holy Maiden, what should we do" came from an unknown nobleman's inquiry, and the eyes of the surrounding eyes were focused on her, yes, this was their last hope, they still had the Holy Maiden.

With a slight twitch between her eyebrows, Joan of Arc looked at the wind who came to her side and whispered to her.

"It's not that there is no way to break through" replaced Youfeng to the coach's position. Joan of Arc said calmly.

After a word, most people's eyes suddenly changed, and they looked at Joan of Arc with shocked ecstasy and anticipation.

"England and Burgundy's primary target is me, and as long as I stay in this place, they will surely attack here, and you can take advantage of this opportunity to break through."

The atmosphere was silent again after two seconds of joy, and the meaning of the words could not be clearer, the saint intended to sacrifice herself to create a way for them to live.

"Charles VII's betrayal is not open, and only those of us who are present know about it," Joan of Arc said again calmly, surrounding the nobles in the tent.

"As long as you don't deliberately bring it up, pretend you don't know anything. Charles VII will not do anything to you who are in high power."

France is not a centralized monarchy, and in the end, the territory directly under the royal family is larger than that of a normal dukedom. Even if they do commit a crime, they dare not be convicted lightly.

"Absolutely not, who will protect the saint in our breakthrough," Gilles, who was faithful to Joan of Arc and even surpassed France, immediately vetoed.

It was Joan of Arc that gave him hope, while France made him see only darkness, and even now there are signs of recovery that are far less important in Gilles's heart than Joan of Arc.

Beyond ordinary affection, Joan of Arc is the guiding light in Gilles's mind, more important than anything else.

"It is better to stay and die in vain, than to stay useful and avenge the saint in the future" After Gilles, one of the counts present also had his own opinion, and he chose to leave.

"If we want to break through, we must break through with the saint, we will not necessarily fail"

"Even if we succeed in breaking through and returning to France, what will we choose?"

Even if the breakthrough is successful, the estrangement between the Holy Maiden and Charles VII has already arisen, and there will inevitably be conflicts in the future, how should they choose.

"Of course it's the Holy Maiden, the royal family has betrayed us, why help him"

"We are nobles affiliated with France, and the royal family ...... He is the king of France."

And the purpose of the wind has also been achieved, not everyone has the same idea as Gilles, convinced, but compared to themselves, everyone's choice is naturally different.

The two camps of leaving and staying to protect the saint have been formed, and heated discussions have begun.

"The enemy won't leave us much time, choose as soon as possible, I won't die" The mixed discussion around Jeanne d'Arc made Joan of Arc feel inexplicable, and before she knew it, there were already so many people supporting her.

And she also understands that this is not a right or wrong choice, and it is not only her life that she will give up, but also her family, industry, everything.

Sometimes it's not so easy to make a decision, and what will happen to the family after losing him?

"Holy Maiden, I swear that if I succeed in returning to France, I will seek justice from Charles VII," said the count, who had chosen to leave before, and then he was the first to walk out of the camp, and his family could not do without him.

After the first person appeared, the others gradually left, and the tent became scattered.

Most of the nobles who chose to leave were nobles with higher titles, and neither for themselves nor the forces behind them could not let them easily choose their own life and death.

In the Middle Ages, there was a rule in the West that captives could be exchanged for money, but who knows if Charles VII would have done so.

And the other party chose to unite with Charles VII to attack Joan of Arc, maybe he won't even be left alive, let alone let the other party ransom people if he doesn't have a prisoner.

Gradually, there were less than ten people left in the tent.

"Holy Maiden, I must go back and ask Charles VII for clarification," said Dinoy, one of the two dukes who was the tallest in the room, after a long silence.

He was one of the few people present who were most convinced of Joan of Arc, but he had to ask Charles VII why he had chosen it.

As long as Joan of Arc exists and sooner or later it will be able to recover France, why choose to betray Joan of Arc at this time just for the sake of the Burgundian alliance?

Although it had been expected, Dinoir's choice still made the wind slightly disappointed, after all, he was also one of the powerful knights present.

The purpose of the wind is to screen, so that the undetermined ones can leave, and there is no question of right or wrong, but the wind hopes that the next ones will be the most determined faction.

In fact, it was much better than he thought, most of the people who left were high-ranking nobles, and they were middle-aged, and it was no pity to leave, and most of the generals who stayed were newly promoted generals in the battle, and they chose to stay. (To be continued.) )
