Chapter 334
After looking around, the elf girl finally focused on the promotional picture of "The Hundred Years' War between England and France".
The beautiful poster attracted the girl.
She was originally supposed to explore things about the game "Zero" first, but her curiosity aroused, so she picked up a new epic "The Hundred Years' War between England and France" and started reading it.
Soon she saw the plot of Joan of Arc being suspected after meeting Charles VII.
"Humans are really strange creatures. If you have any doubts, you shouldn't use them. We elves will never leave important wars to a girl from the countryside."
The elf girl of the Nilbalen family frowned and snorted softly. She was a little confused and didn't understand the 'stupidity' of Charles VII.
Could it be that just a few words from that girl named Joan of Arc touched the king's heart?
Isn't this king afraid that Joan is deceiving him? Just like he had doubts later.
This kind of thing is really strange;
With such doubts——
It didn't take long for the elf girl to get the answer to this question in the book.
‘With year after year of ignominious defeats on the battlefield, the French government had become demoralized and discredited as a leader of both the army and the people.
When Prince Charles agreed to let Joan lead his troops and prepare for war, he had presumably tried all the formal, rational strategic options and failed;
Only a regime that has reached the final moment of its survival but is completely unable to do anything will despair and believe in an illiterate rural girl who claims to be instructed by God to command the country's army.
It was so absurd, just like a child playing around, he casually handed over the command of the army. This seemingly unreasonable choice eventually gave birth to a miracle that shocked the whole of France, including Charles VII! ’
A [miracle!] that shocked King Charles VII and the whole of France! 】
Such dazzling fonts are deeply reflected in people's eyes.
The instinct of fantasy makes people's blood boil;
...?
What exactly do you have to do to be called a ‘miracle’? !
Could it be that he saved a war that was almost lost?
Or should I say...——
...People don't dare to think about King Arthur's achievements...
'King Arthur saved the entire Camelot and Britain - and defeated and drove away all the invaders, leading Britain to become prosperous. ’
If it is the same feat as that, it is indeed a ‘miracle’!
But people suddenly looked at the clip about Giles described earlier.
He is the protagonist of this epic!
After all, as the hero of this epic, his achievements should be more dazzling, right?
Could it be that the miracle was achieved by the two of them together?
…
The little princess turned to the next page.
‘Charles VII, who was wary of Joan of Arc.
Even though his identity was clearly explored, he did not take it lightly.
He asked Gill to accompany Joan on the expedition. Gil thus became Joan's guardian.
It was at this time that the future French Generalissimo met the Saint. ’
‘——The future Generalissimo of France! ’
...? !
Everyone's eyes lit up.
That one should be Giles.
Saint - is she talking about Joan of Arc?
Read carefully the words in the article, which contain detailed notes on the sect that Joan of Arc believed in.
Some careful people soon discovered that the Catholicism that Joan of Arc believed in...
and the revelations from the gods that guide her on her way.
The origins of those mythological teachings are actually related to the Christianity that Piercing Hall originally believed in.
In other words, it was originally supposed to be the same sect, but later due to some reasons, it was divided into Protestantism, Orthodoxy, and Catholicism.
This involves many complex denominational differences and reform processes.
The article did not mention it in detail, which made everyone feel itchy and had many daydreams.
They barely suppressed their curiosity and continued to see behind:
‘——Joan of Arc’s army arrived on the battlefield on the 29th, but the French commander at the time, the Duke of Dinois, and other generals drew up a battle plan on their own and launched the battle without informing Joan of Arc.
After realizing this, Joan was furious. Ignoring the judgment of other experienced commanders who planned to supply Orleans first, Joan advocated directly attacking the British army and participated in every small battle! ’
(Eh???
This familiar scene (directly opening Wushuang) confused Jenny, who was reading the epic poem. )
Chapter 504: That’s it? Andersen wouldn't even dare to write this!
The development of the plot is really too dramatic.
For a while, many people didn't even react.
A trace of surprise also flashed across the face of Hermitus, the God of Alchemy.
Giles turned out to be Jeanne d'Arc's guardian and monitor!
And in Joan of Arc's first war, she had to directly confront the English army, which was the stronger side.
"...!"
can't read! People can't understand it at all! Completely trapped.
Even aristocratic young men and little princesses who don't understand military combat know that being careless on the battlefield will lead to considerable suffering.
And many noble young men who had played the role of the French Immortal Team almost ended up in battles with demons because of their passion.
In the end, he was rescued by the idol 'True Frank Immortal Team'.
Based on this, they are in pain and joy, but they have a deep understanding.
(Abyss: Do you still dare to be reckless? Young nobles: No, no, no...!)
Then the book describes;
Joan of Arc is often at the forefront of the battle, carrying her obvious flag with her.
But surprisingly, they won.
It was that seemingly inexperienced and headstrong combat behavior that succeeded again and again.
"Ha!?" Claire, who was reading a book in a bookstore.
"!!!" A little princess in the palace was stunned when she saw this, and she doubted her life.
This is success?
Just-this? There are no amazing tactics, nor any particularly shocking feats.
Just winning one after another, small encounters, and constantly winning.
'...Andersen didn't dare to write this! 'Some people who were about to blurt out suddenly frowned and swallowed their words deeply.
Okay--! !
He really dared to write this.
Isn't this epic Andersen's new work?
‘Joan of Arc’s actual leadership ability on the battlefield has always been a mystery. Witnesses claimed that she often made quite wise decisions on the battlefield, but soldiers and generals often regarded her victories as the result of God’s mysterious power.
Later, Joan of Arc also claimed that she paid more attention to her flag than her sword.
However, the officers who really followed her actually regarded her as a resourceful tactician and successful strategist.
Someone once commented on her in that way: "She continued to lead the army to a series of incredible victories, turning the situation of the entire war. In any case, the French army did create quite extraordinary victories under her leadership."’
Is she really outstanding in consciousness... or is it just as ordinary soldiers fantasize about.
Is Joan of Arc guided by the gods?
People can't help but keep fantasizing.
At this time, the Joan of Arc in Jeanne's body was so hot that it affected Jeanne's body, causing Jeanne herself to not know what was going on, and her face was so hot!
Joan of Arc was about to faint from shame.
Although she did have a strong intuition - even the ability to listen to divine revelations.
But if it is written in the book like this, doesn't it look like she is a reckless person who knows nothing and wins the war by reckless actions?
Think about it carefully...
She also knows that she does not have any outstanding military talents.
She and Gilles are not the same kind of leaders.
She just followed her feelings and won the victory.
In fact, she also knows that her way of fighting does sound a bit unreliable.
Even she herself did not expect to be so successful.
Speaking of which, the saint who saved the country turned out to be someone like her. She herself is a bit like in a dream.
Just as people think.
As the protagonist Gilles should have achievements that are not inferior to Joan of Arc, or even better.
At this time, he really has no sense of existence.
And when people continue to look back——
The article finally gives Gilles what kind of contributions he made behind the scenes in those battles.
People saw such descriptions:
At first, he was a guardian and supervisor...
Gilles, who was already in his twenties, looked after this 16-year-old girl who was much younger than him, just like looking after his sister.
Gilles' original character had long been indifferent to feelings such as family affection, and he was not very interested in them.
But for Joan of Arc...
This girl who made people feel her kindness and strong spirit from the inside out.
After spending a long time with her, Giles felt that he was baptized both physically and mentally.
She was always so brave, standing at the forefront of people, leading the soldiers forward.
She was different from... myself who was cautious, calm, and calculating...
She fought bravely and could better inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers to fight.
Gilles felt like a long-awaited sweet dew for a girl as innocent and cute as her, and as tenacious as she was unbelievable...
It was like a traveler who was about to die of thirst in the desert seeing an oasis;
It was like a lonely and lonely person drifting on a log in the sea seeing a ship coming from afar!
Joan of Arc's gentleness and unpretentious emotions towards everyone around her made Gilles, a beast who had lived in darkness for many years, see the sun!
It was a very reassuring feeling, which could redeem him physically and mentally more than the violence against others.
Before arriving at the battlefield of Orleans, he was captured by the tenderness of the girl on the road.
The series of battles that followed proved that he was not wrong.
And it was precisely because Gilles -
Unlike other French generals, he trusted Joan of Arc very much from the beginning and boldly handed over his troops to Joan of Arc, who had no soldiers.
