Chapter 259: The Eve of Retreat

And so the situation opened up.

Although Li Ji feels that some are dreaming, even if he is dreaming, at least let the good dream end completely.

The Louvre, where all the heroic spirits are summoned.

Today there is more than Marda and Napoleon who has disappeared for many days.

Today, Li Ji officially revealed the secret that he is the master of Galdea.

Today they are going to discuss the abandonment of Paris in favor of Orleans.

……

"As above... As an ally of Joan of Arc, we look forward to your journey to the Americas. β€œ

"The Americas in this era, the Aztec Empire, and the Inca Empire are undoubtedly in their heyday, and there will be no danger in avoiding Mexico and the Andes, and focusing on North America, you only need to face relatively loose Indian tribes."

"This land is unusually rich in resources, from basic food and water, to iron ore, oil, uranium soil, enough to meet all the needs from the most basic stage of civilization to modern times."

"Coupled with the fact that you are far away from the European continent, even if the enemy has the control of the transatlantic route, considering the huge cost of mobilizing the army, the nobles of those countries will definitely not come to hinder you."

"In just a hundred years, you will recreate modern society and even go further, to unimaginable heights."

After listening to Li Ji's words, the heroic spirits discussed.

"North America? Or rather, the United States? Build America for the French! Edison and Tesla, who have American citizenship, seem to be very sympathetic to reinventing America, and as a nation of immigrants, they don't feel that the French are not American.

"Very well, this time I will form the film alliance in advance, so that Méliès will no longer have a chance to stop my monopoly, and I will surpass Morgan and Rockefeller to establish the eternal Edison Consortium."

Tesla recalled the painful experience of the Morgan consortium withdrawing its investment and causing him to go bankrupt, "Very well, then I will take Morgan's Wall Street and build countless Woden Crevert Towers." ”

Faced with the ambition of two genius scientists, a Lori who has not existed for a long time makes her voice heard.

"I'm against it! I'm against it! Napoleon stood beside Joan of Arc with his head held high, as if he had been relied upon, "Why bother these vulnerable enemies when they should have defeated them all and conquered them all?" ”

Li Ji swept the Lori in front of him, who had been imprisoned by himself for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Napoleon... Let's face it... Your ruling base is too weak to last long, and you must find a suitable place to settle down before you can do something well. ”

At this moment, a soldier suddenly rushed in and shouted, "Lord Joan of Arc, there are resistors who have snatched several cannons, if you don't hurry, the Louvre will be shelled." ”

Rumble!!!

As if to confirm the soldier's account, there was a deafening rumble, the outer wall of the fortified rock castle suddenly collapsed, the Louvre was blasted out of a large hole, and the city of Paris was full of gunsmoke outside.

"Mademoiselle Napoleon... Look at this..."Li Ji reminded.

Seeing this scene, Napoleon's face was purple, "Bastard, why betray us, why do the people of France help foreigners!" ”

"Napoleon... Let's go to counterinsurgency first! Joan of Arc gave the order.

Napoleon was reluctant to move, and it would be terrible to think that if he left, Joan of Arc would be alone, and would be persuaded by so many instigators.

At this time, Semiramis stood up and dealt a fatal blow to Napoleon, "Napoleon, you were once the emperor... But at this time, you should obey the Jeanne d'Arc who called you to this world. β€œ

Li Ji added: "If there are not enough people, Marda will be willing to help. ”

However, no matter how much Marda was an outsider to them for the time being, how could it trouble her, more people still looked at Napoleon.

Jeanne d'Arc spoke again, how could she, once the supreme commander of the French army, almost on a par with Napoleon in terms of military prowess alone, not understand this.

"Napoleon... It's your responsibility, and besides, the next counterattack on Orleans will require you to contribute your abilities. ”

Napoleon was a little pitiful, his body trembled and stared at the girl, "Lord Joan of Arc... I will always be by your side! ”

Lori thought to herself why she couldn't judge those two violent guys who imprisoned and abused her, and patronized something else.

One step at a time, he turned back three times, and finally gritted his teeth and disappeared.

"Oops... Have you finally achieved your goal? Joan of Arc looked at herself with some disdain.

"You have to understand my struggle." Li Ji spread his hands innocently, how did he seem to be those behind-the-scenes, treacherous villains.

Joan of Arc rolled her eyes, "Everyone... It seems that you are still interested in traveling to North America, but relieving the siege of Orleans is what we need to face immediately. ”

After Joan of Arc said this, Edison and Tesla nodded, but they both showed interest and did not speak actively, after all, they were not war maniacs, and they were not too interested in this.

Joan of Arc seemed to be accustomed to it, and said to herself, "The army currently stationed in Paris is five thousand, shrinking the defenses, destroying the tanks, factories, and fortresses that should not be left, and preparing for retreat, it will take a week to add up." ”

"Period... The situation on the Orleans side will be further deteriorated, and if we are left alone, we will be in an extremely disadvantageous position in the event of the fall of Orleans, so we need to consider sending an army to delay the enemy's attack. ”

At this time, Li Ji stood up and took the initiative to speak: "I have a support army in my hands, and they will support Orleans first, enough to delay until we arrive." ”

"I wonder what reinforcements you have in your hands as an Eastern merchant?"

"As a master, naturally there is not only one servant in Marda, I have three servants active in Brittany, relying on their abilities, I believe that there is nothing that cannot be done."

"Brittany? It's a neutral place... How did the Duke of Brittany allow your army to exist... But is it servant? Since you have a lot of faith in them, trust you, and let your reinforcements take care of the delay first... We are ready to retreat with all our might, and then we will fight to Orleans, and wait until the three sides converge to settle Philip III once and for all!! ”

Philip III, Duke of Burgundy, controlled much of France north of France and was the leader of the French side of the Hundred Years' War, second only to England.

Moreover, it was Jeanne d'Arc that his army captured and sold to the British, causing Joan of Arc to be burned to death, so in order to deal with Bishop Pierre, the King of France, and the Queen of England, Philip III undoubtedly became the target of Joan of Arc's vengeful anger.

Joan of Arc finally gave the order: "Edison and Tesla, I order you to destroy all the factories that have just been built in Paris, not to leave them to the enemy, to recruit manpower, to recruit manpower." ”

"Semiramis, absent Napoleon, I command you to be responsible for holding the line and holding back the arrogant enemy until the retreat is ready."

At this moment, Joan of Arc still doesn't know that Semiramis is a traitor, and she trusts her orders.

Li Ji and Marda are allies, and Joan of Arc did not send them directly, but now that they have finally been convinced, the two sides will join forces, and they will definitely help do something.
