Chapter 1390: Amnesty for Barr and Others
"Orleans is still holding on!"
The originally flat tone suddenly rose at this moment.
The originally hoarse voice became extremely clear at this moment.
"Request support!"
"Orleans is still holding on! Request support!"
Barrister repeated this sentence twice.
After Barrister's voice fell, Bella... and all the guards present were all shocked.
"Is Orleans still holding on? Hasn't it fallen yet?!"
Bella asked Barrister in a somewhat excited voice.
"Yes." Barrister nodded heavily, "The defenders of Orleans are still holding on to Orleans."
......
......
Barrister repeated all the current situation of Orleans that he had heard from Roger in the simplest possible sentences.
How Denis regained the trust of the citizens of Orleans.
And how to hire the citizens of Orleans to help defend the city.
How the regular army and militia of Orleans worked together to defend the city.
How did Roger break through the blockade of the Britannia Army.
And...how did Roger die heroically...
Bella listened carefully from beginning to end.
After Barrister finished speaking, he suddenly heard a soft sob in front of him.
He looked up and saw the direction of the sound.
He was surprised to find that the sobbing person was Bella, the supreme ruler of their Rolin Empire.
Big tears slid down Bella's well-maintained facial skin.
And the waiters serving Bella immediately took out a clean handkerchief and handed it to Bella.
Bella wiped her tears with a clean handkerchief handed by the waiter, and said in a tearful voice:
"So... the defenders of Orleans are so brave..."
"You must have suffered a lot to deliver the news that Orleans has not fallen to Tuli? You have worked so hard..."
"No..." Barrister, with a slightly stunned look on his face, shook his head gently, "Compared to me, Mr. Roger is the one who has worked the hardest."
Although he had never met Bella before, Barrister had heard of Bella's notoriety a long time ago.
He thought Bella would be a cruel and difficult guy to communicate with.
He never expected that Bella would cry out after learning that the defenders of Orleans were still fighting bloody battles and defending Orleans.
Compared to Barrister's surprise, the guards present all looked as if they were used to it.
These guards have served Queen Bella for many years.
They knew what kind of person Queen Bella was.
Queen Bella is a person with a lot of emotions and values feelings.
It is precisely because Queen Bella values feelings that she easily forgives Bal and others who have committed treason.
Queen Bella is not cruel.
She is just... ignorant.
She has lived in the palace for a long time and has never seen the suffering of the people. She does not know how much harm her absurd decisions and luxurious life will bring to the people and the country.
She is just an ignorant and playful little girl - this is the consensus of the waiters who have served Queen Bella for many years.
Although Queen Bella is not young, her mind is actually no different from that of a little girl.
Children who do not have a full understanding of the world do not know what is good, what is evil, what should be done, and what should not be done - this is exactly the same as Queen Bella.
Therefore, it is quite accurate to evaluate Queen Bella as a "little girl".
It is precisely because the waiters know what kind of person Queen Bella is, so they are not surprised by Queen Bella's sudden crying.
......
......
After crying for a while,
Queen Bella wiped the tears from her face.
Then, she sat up straight.
She said seriously:
"Pass my order."
As soon as Queen Bella finished speaking, the waiters standing on her left and right immediately knelt on one knee.
"Bar de Lu, Leo de Foley, Gilles de Lisle..."
Queen Bella read out the names one by one.
After reading out these names one by one, Queen Bella paused for a while.
Then, she said in a high-pitched voice:
"All the above people will be pardoned and released from prison!"
"Bar de Rue will be fully responsible for the rescue of Orleans!"
......
......
Orleans' envoys arrived at Toury, Orleans was still holding out, Queen Bella decided to rescue Orleans, Queen Bella pardoned Bar and others who had committed treason in the previous two years...
The news that was enough to make people dizzy came into the ears of the central officials one after another, irritating the nerves of the central officials.
After learning the news, a large number of officials rushed into the palace and advised Queen Bella.
Some people suggested that Orleans should not be rescued.
Some people suggested that Orleans could be rescued, but Bar and others who committed treason should not be pardoned.
Some people suggested that some generals could be pardoned, but the main culprit like Bar should never be released from prison.
Some people suggested that Barr and others should be pardoned, but it would be better to let Barr and others lead the army.
After all, Barr and others have a dark history that cannot be washed away.
If Barr and others are still disloyal, it would be too dangerous to let them lead the last troops of the Rolin Empire.
......
All kinds of advice are dizzying.
Queen Bella ignored all these advices.
She was determined to pardon Barr and others and let Barr take full responsibility for the rescue operation of Orleans.
No matter who persuaded, there was no way to change Bella's mind.
After more than two years, Barr, Leo, Gilles, Eugene, Charles and others finally saw the sun again.
Barr and others who saw the sun again had a huge mission on their shoulders just after they were released from prison.
Command all the military forces that the Rolin Empire Central Government can currently mobilize - a total of 70,000 troops, rescue Orleans, lift the siege of Orleans by the Britannia Army, and drive all the Britannia Army out of the country.
These 70,000 troops are all that Bella has at present.
These 70,000 troops include the entire guards under Bella, as well as local troops drawn from various places and newly recruited soldiers.
If even these 70,000 troops are defeated... the rulers and ministers of the Rolin Empire can surrender.
The Britannia Army has a full 150,000 people. And these 150,000 troops are in high spirits because of their successive victories.
However, the troops that Bal can command are only 70,000. And these 70,000 troops are in low morale because the Rolin Army has not won a victory so far.
If they lose the war, the Rolin Empire will perish.
70,000 against 150,000, and the consequences of the defeat are extremely serious - the pressure that Bal has to bear is already unimaginable.
But after Bella gave Bal this task, Bal nodded immediately without any hesitation.
