Ha ha

The barracks were built brick by wood.Louis XIII, who recovered quickly after escaping from danger, led 2 troops, surrounded the treacherous city of La Rochelle and opened fire, just like Buckingham besieged the Isle of Ré.

A protracted war of attrition between the two encirclements began.The French army tried to break through the British blockade to transport supplies to the Isle of Ré, but the British army secretly helped La Rochelle to gather more Protestant allies.Wars are raging, and the situation has been stalemate for a long time, and it is impossible to distinguish between top and bottom. Only the hot weather and terrible diseases are slowly dragging down the combat effectiveness of both sides.

Richelieu tightened his reins, turned off his horse, and stepped his boots into the wet mud.

The wind carries the unique fishy and salty smell of sea water.He led the horse for a few steps, tied it to the wall of an old and abandoned house, and walked into the door of the house by stepping on the stagnant water left by the high tide.

There is a distance from the barracks here, and the movement of soldiers training in the distance can no longer be heard, only a few guards are left standing guard a hundred steps away.The house was narrow and dark, but it had obviously been cleaned, and there were still clean beds, tables and chairs.

At this moment, two people were sitting and standing inside.Seeing the bishop come in, the gray-clothed priest who was originally sitting slowly stood up and bowed slightly to him.

Richelieu stretched out his hand and made a casual sign of the cross: "Any news?"

"Yes." Joseph gave him the wooden chair, and sat on the bed instead.

The man standing in the farthest corner saluted the bishop at this moment, habitually hiding his face in the shadows—this instinctive move already explained his work.The spy network under Joseph is composed of countless such invisible people. They come in and out of La Rochelle silently, bringing the latest information.

"Did people die of illness in the city walls?" asked Richelieu.

"Yes, but not many. Only the British army died in large numbers, but the morale of the people in the city was greatly reduced after hearing the rumors." Menhui reported.

"The British are almost finished. Buckingham has only a face and no brains, and he can't command a war at all. Let our people break through the blockade, and their own soldiers are almost tossed into waste by him." Richelieu mocked unceremoniously , "Wait, it won't take long, they will either be forced to go home due to civil strife, or they will launch a fierce attack with all their eggs in one basket, and it will be easier to lose."

"Even if the siege of Ray Island is resolved, it is only the first step." Joseph gently reminded, "The people of La Rochelle have not lost confidence in Britain, and they are trying to find a way to seek material support recently. Look." He pointed A map spread out on a table.

This map shows the topography of the area in detail.La Rochelle is surrounded by walls on three sides, and the other side faces the bay.The port of La Rochelle is deeply embedded in the land, and beyond the port is a vast sea.

The spy in the corner stepped forward, took a pen tip and dipped it in ink, and circled a few places on the coastline where the city of La Rochelle meets the bay: "If the British send a ship to send supplies, they may be here." Landing in several places. Our people can mix into the support team, but I'm afraid there are not enough manpower..."

"What can you do if you get in there, can you burn the supplies?" the bishop asked.

The spy lowered his head again.That's exactly what they intended.

"Even if it succeeds once, there will be a second and third time. Can you stop it every time?"

"..."

"What's your opinion, my lord bishop?" Joseph heard that he already had an idea.

"Our original plan was to encircle. Now that we have achieved this step, let's go to the end."

Richelieu took the pen from the spy, and "swipe" to draw a line—a long, straight line that cuts across the entire bay!

"You're crazy." Calm as Joseph couldn't help blurting out.

Richelieu sneered back.

[Supervisor-Passerby A]: "Published, [link]"

[Late-Awen]: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

【Translation-Yu Tarasang】: "Scattering flowers~ Everyone has worked hard! Ah Jia, do you want to count how many times we have grabbed the first place this season?"

[Supervisor-Passerby A]: "It's only the last episode, let's make persistent efforts to fight the last battle"

[Film Source - The Second Uncle Is Not Su]: "Ah, that's true"

[Later-Awen]: "The second season of QAQ is over again...Suddenly I can't bear it..."

【Translation-Yutarasan】: "The next season will continue~"

[Translation-Chris]: "Well, sorry everyone"

Xu Chenchuan looked at the question marks flashed on the screen.

【Translation-Chris】: "I'm graduating next week, and I happened to be on the plane back to China on the night of the show, so I can't work..."

【Translation-Cat Grass】: "Hey! Little Keke!"

[Later-Awen]: "QAQ can't welcome the ending together, so cruel"

[Supervisor-Passerby A]: "I see, I will find another substitute"

Xu Chenchuan stared at the gray profile picture on the screen expectantly.

【Proofreading-Paper Crane】: "No need, I'll turn it over."

……

All the people in the group suddenly burst into teasing sounds of showing affection and dying quickly.

Xu Chenchuan read those six words again, and silently looked away.

The two of them hadn't had much offline contact since spring break ended.Even the occasional communication during the production of the play is plain and regular.He could no longer see a flower between the black letters on a white background.

Bai Qi's attitude was very strange, he neither teased him, nor kept away from him deliberately.Sometimes Xu Chenchuan feels that this way of getting along has returned to the time when they first met, and they are back to being friends with each other in peace.

After getting drunk that night, Xu Chenchuan could only vaguely remember the broken fragments, and was too embarrassed to ask Bai Qi what he said.Perhaps the current state is the end of their consensus that night?Xu Chenchuan weighed it rationally, and felt that the ending was not bad, so he intentionally or unintentionally ignored the knot in his chest.

Those onlookers on the Internet who don't know the truth are still trying to find every opportunity to make a fuss. Xu Chenchuan posts any Weibo, and there is a queue in the comments, vowing to find out the inside story from the cracks in the words.After coming and going, Xu Chenchuan simply stopped posting on Weibo.Even so, they couldn't escape the ubiquitous gossip squad, and the pink bubbles flying around at that time only seemed extremely embarrassing now.

[Supervisor-Passerby A]: "By the way, you will stay for the third season, right?"

[Film Source - The Second Uncle Is Not Su]: "Of course, follow the leader and get some meat!"

[Translation-Cat Grass]: "There is meat to eat +1"

【Translation-Yu Tarasang】: "There is meat to eat +2"

[Supervisor-Passerby A]: "Chris, what about you?"

[Translation-Chris]: "There is meat to eat +3"

Xu Chenchuan felt that the atmosphere should not be ruined at this time, so he poked open the private chat with passerby A and added: "Ah Jia, I may be busy at the beginning of work, and then see if I have time to continue working, if there is a change, I will You were notified in advance~"

Passerby A quickly replied: "Okay."

[Chris]: "^_^"

【Passerby A】: "No matter what happens, we love you very much, it's just you"

Xu Chenchuan froze for a moment, feeling a sour warmth in his heart.

[Passerby A]: "Squeeze, go to sleep"

[Chris]: "Okay, good night~"
