The small office was packed with senior French officials here. Some people couldn't sit down and simply stood.
The same battle report was also placed on Richard's desk. He tapped his fingers on the table, making a dull sound.
Thumb thump thump...
Bites everyone in the silent air.
There was a gloomy look on their faces that was difficult to ignore, but Richard, the leader and commander of France in America, hummed a melody at the corner of his mouth and played it with extremely coordinated fingers.
"Richard Court..."
"Shh." Richard stopped him softly.
The man was stunned for a moment, then gave up and retreated.
Until the sound stopped completely, Richard opened his eyes, with an indescribable weird smile on his face, and looked at a group of French senior officials.
"There is a piece of music that is popular in Vienna recently. It has a good melody. I heard that it was composed by a man named Long Yan. If you have time, go and listen to it."
Richard said calmly.
A group of high-level French officials frowned and said in a deep voice: "Sir Richard, in this war, we lost nearly 10,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry!"
"Position No. 3 has been lost. The top priority is to increase the number of troops. We cannot let the British take the position away!"
Richard glanced at him, raised his finger and shook his head: "No, no, no."
"Legion Commander, you are wrong. The Britons cannot pose any danger to us now."
"Their losses are no less than ours."
The legion commander took a step forward, slammed his hands on the table, and said in a deep voice: "Our losses are not small, but now we have the initiative in our hands."
"Position No. 2 is in our hands. We now have Longyan artillery and Indian troops. We can definitely defeat Position No. 1 before winter comes!"
"Let the British people completely lose the qualification to challenge us!"
Richard ignored the legion commander's suggestion. He stood up, faced the legion commander directly, smiled slightly, and said lightly: "The suggestion is very good, but I will not adopt it."
The legion commander looked startled, and then shouted: "Richard, you are passive and lazy in fighting. We can obviously win, but you are harming the interests of our France."
Faced with his anger, Richard did not get angry at all, but said.
"No, I am protecting our France."
He stepped over the lost legion commander and walked to the center of the office. After scanning around, he said loudly: "Everyone here, I have two pieces of news to tell you."
Everyone looked at him one after another, with Mr. Huo's eyes full of confusion.
Richard didn't care about their looks, but raised the information in his hand and laughed loudly: "The information in my hand is about the agreement with Longyan weapons and equipment."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed from stunned to shocked, until their eyes were filled with disbelief.
The relationship between Long Yancheng and them can be said to be incompatible.
And now Longyan City has completely blocked their contact with mainland Europe.
This also resulted in the mainland being unable to continue to provide support to the Americas, and they were unable to deliver supplies to their own country.
Not enough news from the European battlefields still reached their ears, but in this regard, these French people who had not been in America for a particularly long time and still cared about their homeland actually cared a little about their motherland.
But there is nothing we can do about the current situation in America.
This also resulted in an irreconcilable conflict between France and Longyan City.
