The Brittany region, which originally belonged to the Duchess of Anna, was then forced to marry Charles VIII and finally Louis XII.

Gave birth to an only daughter, Claude, who married François I and gave birth to Henry II.

Therefore, the last duke should be King Henry II of France.

In this way, the main branch of the Roon family is broken, and a new main line is inevitably needed, after all, the Roon family has ruled Brittany for hundreds of years, and there are many branches.

As a result, the branch located in Mountbazon was given a higher position due to blood factors, and successfully became the main branch from the branch, which was a great leap.

However, the consequences of this are also bad.

Because it is a branch top, it does not have the pride and confidence from the heart of the main branch in the past, and the prestige of the other branches is seriously insufficient, and the leadership is not good, so it can only choose to discuss.

Joséline has always been the fief of the Roon family, and the castle of Joséline, which has been constantly renovated for hundreds of years, is also the seat of the main branch of the Roon family, and it is also the bloodline center that the Roon family has always recognized in their hearts.

At this time, in Joselinburg, the hall was full of candles on the round candlesticks hanging on the walls, even the candlesticks in the center of the sky.

The long table is placed in the center, as the main branch of Louis. Roon sat down in high spirits, while a dozen or so other well-known and prestigious branch chiefs sat at the long table, their faces all different, and this face looked very similar to the final lunch mural.

And those who are not famous and do not have a high status of the branch patriarchs can only sit in the back as observers.

Even though the memory hall is large, it still looks crowded after sitting hundreds of people.

Having ruled Brittany for hundreds of years, the Rohan family has a very large branch, and it is not worrying about the blood being cut off.

Even later, during the French Revolution, the Rohan family was still active, and even in the Napoleonic period, there was a Marshal of Rohn.

Even in the 21st century, the Rohan family is still active in French politics.

This is also another plenary meeting of the Roon family, which is solemn and significant, following the last meeting to elect the succession of the main branch.

The servants served carefully with the wine, and the rules were very strict.

Because it is a great aristocrat that has been passed down for hundreds of years, everyone's speech and actions are extremely standard. Before Rohan spoke, the hall was silent.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I just got the news that the English have unexpectedly captured the city of Brest and have tens of thousands of land forces, today, the Rohan family has reached a critical moment of life and death, please speak freely!"

As soon as the young Louis spoke, the whole hall suddenly began to chatter, and he did not stop it.

The reason why I said it was unexpected, but because the capture of Brest City was really not in their imagination.

After all, the nearest port to the capital Rennes is St. Roch, and next to St. Roch is the archipelago centered on all the Channel Islands of England, Guernsey and Nasey.

This is the legacy of the Duchy of Normandy, just ten miles from France.

Therefore, although the city of Brest is prosperous, the most military value is the island of St. Rocle.

So, a large part of Brittany's military power is in the port of Saint-Roque.

And the important thing is that after capturing Brest City, although the distance is relatively long, it is embarrassing that there are no relatively strong castles along the way, and there is basically no obstruction and very little strength, and you can directly reach Rennes City.

Tens of thousands of British troops (the effect of propaganda), if they act quickly, only need seven or eight days of effort, and they can march to Rennes.

"Lord Duke, the English army of tens of thousands, with the strength of our thousands of people, it is impossible to hold it, just surrender!"

A branch patriarch looked mighty, but he didn't expect to say something cowardly, which was shocking.

"Indeed, there is no doubt about the strength of the English, with the strength of our Bretons, we cannot beat it! It's better to surrender as well! ”

Other branches also supported the surrender.

It can be seen that for hundreds of years, England has cultivated a lot of power in Brittany, after all, the exchanges between the two places are extensive.

"No, absolutely not!" A gentlemanly branch shook his head in decline.

"Now, the English are menacing, I am afraid that they will annex us in one fell swoop, Brittany belongs to our Roon family, and the Tudor family will not succeed!"

"The Rohan family is the master of Brittany, and the English will never be allowed to occupy it!"

Behind him, there are also many branches to support.

And Louis sat on the main seat. Roon, the titular patriarch of the family, was a little embarrassed at this time, and the scene was a little uncontrollable.

"Ahem! Be quiet, everyone! He rolled his eyes a few times and said loudly.

When he saw his eyes on him, he felt that he was the true patriarch of the Roon family.

"With our current situation, we can't deal with the English at all, and the French are in a civil war, so let's evacuate to the border castle!"

The Frontier Castle is a fortified castle built by Archduchess Anna and her father on the border of Buffa to maintain the autonomy of Brittany.

What's more, it is very close to France, and if necessary, it can withdraw France.

This proposal has been unanimously agreed by everyone and they have expressed their satisfaction.

Subsequently, most of the branches rushed home and began the Great Migration.

The reason why the Roon family did not want the English to occupy it, in addition to their own long-standing ideas of self-government, the most important thing was their faith.

The majority of Bretons are Catholic, while the Rohan family is Protestant.

Ordinary people, of course, thought of England as Protestants, but the aristocracy understood very well that Anglicanism had little to do with Protestantism and was more akin to Catholicism.

This is also the reason why they resisted the English.

In real history, these Protestant Rohan families made the wrong bet and were forced to cut nearly half of their fiefdoms and suffered heavy losses.

Contrary to the conjecture of the Rohan family, it took about half a month or so for the British army to arrive at the city of Rennes.

The reason why this is the case is that alcohol is to blame.

More than 100 barrels of whiskey were consumed in a few days, and the journey was only halfway through.

In order to stabilize the morale of the army, the Marquis of Edinburgh had no choice but to plunder some of the manor's wine cellars to replenish them.

And plundering the property of the nobility is not in accordance with the rules.

So, after each plunder, the Marquess of Edinburgh left an IOU, and walked all the way, drinking wine all the way, and the time was fully doubled.

What's more, the number of cellars that have been pried open has reached hundreds.

The amount of IOUs he left behind has reached tens of thousands of pounds.

Therefore, looking at the tall walled Rennes City in front of him, he was not thinking about how to capture it, but how to make a great achievement, so that London would not be able to settle accounts with him.
