After the surrendered soldiers and generals from Orleans came out, the Britannian army's military formation burst into spontaneous cheers.

The joyful atmosphere condensed above the Britannian army formation and the lost atmosphere condensed above the surrendered soldiers and generals in Orleans form a sharp contrast.

Soon, the old man walking in front of the Britannian army arrived in front of the formation.

After searching all over his body and confirming that the old man did not carry any offensive weapons, the old man was taken to the original formation of the Britannian Army.

The main formation of the Britannian army, Su Cheng, Deng Jiaer, Albert and other knights gathered together.

After the old man was taken into the camp and forced to kneel on the ground with his knees, Su Cheng directly asked the old man:

"Are you Bar de Ru?"

Su Cheng didn't know Barr's appearance.

The old man did not answer Su Cheng's question.

Seeing that the old man did not answer in time, the knights present frowned.

Albert simply bent down and looked at the old man's face.

The old man hung his head low from beginning to end, and at the same time he hung his white hair to cover his face.

Even if Albert bent down, he couldn't see the old man's face clearly.

"Raise your head!" Albert shouted directly.

"……hehe."

The old man, whose head was hanging low, let out a few weird chuckles.

Then he slowly raised his head.

The next moment the old man raised his head, Albert's pupils shrank and exclaimed:

"No! This guy is not Barr!"

Unlike Su Cheng, Albert, who had fought with Barr for many years, recognized Barr's appearance.

The moment he saw the old man looking up, Albert immediately recognized that this person was not Barr.

As soon as Albert's scream fell, everyone in the formation immediately stared at the old man as if they were facing a great enemy.

Some knights who are quite confident in their fighting skills even put their hands on the hilt of their knight's sword.

If the old man dares to do anything wrong, he will directly kill him.

Only Su Cheng looked calm.

After learning from Albert that this person was not Barr, Su Cheng simply raised his eyebrows.

"Since you are not Barr, who are you?"

"Leo." The old man said in Britannian, which was not very standard, "Leo de Furé."

"Oh..." Su Cheng said lightly, "You are Leo."

As one of the "three veterans of the Rolling Empire", Su Cheng naturally recognized who Leo was.

"You bastard!" Deng Jiaer, who was standing beside Su Cheng, shouted, "You dare to pretend to be Barr! Where is Barr de Lu now?!"

Leo was silent.

He closed his mouth tightly and did not answer Deng Jiaer's question.

Everyone present was anxious and planned to use violence to make Leo speak forcibly. Su Cheng, who had been staring at Leo with deep gazes since the beginning. At this time, he said "ah" lightly, and then said:

"I know what you want to do."

"You pretended to be Barr and led the defenders of Orleans to surrender to our army."

"You are the oldest general in the army except Barr, and you are responsible for pretending to be Barr - but the most suitable one."

"When you pretended to be Barr and led the whole city to surrender to our army, the real Barr quietly left the city and fled when our attention was drawn away by you."

"I'm right? His Excellency Leo de Furley?"

Leo still didn't say anything.

But his slightly shrunk pupils had betrayed his uneasy heart at this time.

Su Cheng also keenly noticed Leo's subtle expression change.

"It seems... my reasoning is right."

"Don't be surprised so quickly, Lord Leo."

"My reasoning hasn't ended yet."

"You not only let Barr escape from Orleans, but also your 'saint' escape from Orleans, am I right?"

After Su Cheng's words finished, Leo's expression finally changed significantly.

"I don't know if your 'saint' is really as powerful as you rumored."

"But I know--your 'saint' is a very useful tool."

When talking about the word "tool", Su Cheng specially emphasized his tone.

At the same time, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.

"The name of 'saint' is already known to you in the Rolling Empire, and everyone knows it."

"Many Rollin people have decided that the 'saint' is a hero who can save this country and save them."

"As long as the 'saint' escape to a safe place and then hold up the 'saint' banner, it will definitely attract many men, women, young and old who are unwilling to be Britannians."

"And these men, women, young and old who are attracted by the name of 'saint' are precious forces of resistance."

"The 'saint' is to attract the joining of the resistance force, and Barr integrates the resistance force, and then continue to resist our country - that's what you plan, right?"

Although Su Cheng asked "right," he had no doubts about his tone at all.

Because he was sure that Barr and the others planned.

He was unwilling to surrender to the Britannian Empire just like this.

I plan to use the appeal of the "saint" to make the final battle of trapped beasts.

Su Cheng looked silently at Leo who was still silent.

Then, he sighed softly:

"His Excellency Leo, I admire your will and belief in fighting to the end."

"But have you ever thought about what success rate you have in doing this?"

"Even if you successfully assemble some of the resistance forces in the end, can your little bit of strength deal with our millions of troops?"

"... As long as there is a glimmer of hope," Leo finally spoke out, in his not very standard Britannian language, "we will not give up."

"...What is the reason why you insist on fighting to the end?"

"To protect the people in the country," Leo replied without hesitation.

...

...

"……puff."

Su Cheng was silent.

After a long silence, he suddenly burst into laughter and then burst into laughter.

Su Cheng's laughter kept echoing in this camp.

Leo frowned and stared at Su Cheng who was constantly laughing.

"Captain Cheng, what's funny about my words just now?"

Su Cheng slowly stopped his laughter.

Then he said mercilessly:

"What you said just now was very funny from beginning to end."

"Protect the people in the country?"

Su Cheng casts intriguing gaze at Leo.

"Are you too wishful thinking?"

"Have you ever thought that the people of the Rolling Empire need your protection?"
