Not long after, the MPs and leadership present knew that they really could not retreat, otherwise their political career would end.

Not long after everyone became a member of parliament, they had no famous political achievements. If they were defeated when suppressing the rebellion of Levi, even if they were given money to the Paris government, they would inevitably have the fate of stepping down.

You should know that in the Paris Constitutional Convention, voices that please the common people are becoming louder and louder, especially those MPs with middle-class intellectual status. These people have insufficient background and financial power, and can only build momentum for themselves through public opinion!

The current citizens of Paris are very terrible. The victory of the Paris Revolution has made the citizens of Paris full of violent tendencies. The vested interests of the Paris Constitutional Convention and the Paris government know that they personally released a beast called the "Mass Will".

The various clubs that were originally hidden behind the scenes and were inequality, rose up like spring bamboos after the rain and opened branches everywhere. The Jacobin Club, which took the lead, became the club with the widest audience and the highest public opinion among many clubs!

The reason is no different. The middle-class intellectuals occupy the majority of the Jacobin club. These people are different from the capitalists and the liberal aristocratic class. They have the most contact with the people in their daily lives, and even many middle-class intellectuals with average living standards and barely earning income still live in the so-called civilian area!

Because of this, the Paris government did not dare to take frivolous actions against political personnel who committed serious crimes like during the monarchy.

What's more, provincial parliamentarians and even regional parliamentarians in the Brittany region do not have that much face at all...

Retreat is to step down, and there is still a prospect to stay. As long as the reinforcements arrive, everyone will be confident. After suffering such a big loss this time, everyone has learned their lessons. When they have the confidence, they will slowly consume with Li Wei's rebels.

They could not defeat the Li Wei rebels in a head-on decisive battle, but the leadership of these members of the parliament are quite confident in competing with manpower and material resources.

The territory that Li Wei's rebels could control was only Rennes and its surrounding areas, and it was entirely up to Li Wei's military control. If Li Wei wanted to expand his territory, he had to send troops to conquer. Li Wei, who was divided at that time, would undoubtedly be better to deal with it.

And they, the "government forces" representing justice, can issue recruitment orders from all cities in the entire Brittany region, form recruitment training, and continuously provide new blood.

This move was used by Frederick the Great of Prussia back then. The popularity of muskets made training for recruits cheaper and shorter time. As long as the population is young and strong enough, many cannon fodder can be pulled out.

The problem of weak combat capabilities of new recruits can also be solved by using their number advantage. If one-on-one cannot defeat Li Wei's rebels, then two-on-one, three-on-one... One-on-one can always hold on if one-on-one!

At least, Wallace and his group felt that they must be the ones who won the battle of attrition.

So everyone decided so happily to station here and wait for reinforcements.

However, as soon as the leadership of these MPs held a meeting, a general who had been waiting outside for a long time quickly walked in and suggested with an anxious face:

"This barracks were just temporary constructions, with almost no fortifications, and it was about to dark. With the fighting will shown by the soldiers of Levi's rebels, they could launch a night attack tonight. Our army had just experienced a new defeat, and the soldiers were not good at night battles, so they were likely to be defeated by the night attack.

Let's gather people and retreat to nearby villages and towns overnight.

In villages and towns, you can also build fortifications based on ready-made buildings, and you can barely protect yourself."

“What are you talking nonsense?

We just retreated after the war. The rebels of Li Wei were probably still cleaning the battlefield. Li Wei had much fewer soldiers than us. During the battle, almost all the soldiers went to the front line to fight. The consumption of physical strength and morale should be far greater than that of us.

In this case, how could it be possible to chase so far to start a night battle?

Moreover, our army had just retreated, and the soldiers complained, and where to find villages and towns in the wilderness surrounding it?

It is probably dark and we can't find a village or town to stay. Will we let everyone sleep in the grass?

I was still rushing all night, and you really look down on the soldiers under you. Do you believe it or not, after rushing at night, the number of people in the entire army will be reduced by more than half!

This is the time to strengthen military control and let them rest and recover. How could you escape because of your stupid speculation!”

This MP is obviously not a complete military layman. He speaks very well. Many MPs who know nothing about the army nodded frequently after hearing this. They had never thought about it so much before!

Fortunately, I did not lead the army to escape from this military camp, otherwise everyone would have really become the "bare commander".

Think from the perspective of others, if I was a soldier, I brought my own weapons and some food to participate in the battle. After the battle was defeated, I was asked to rush on the road overnight. It would be strange if I didn't leave...

As for patriotism...hehe~

The general who proposed the proposal turned red by the congressman's confrontation. The other party was originally higher than his and belonged to his immediate superior. Now he was right and well-founded. Could he be scolding the other party? He judged it by observing the combat power of the rebel soldiers of Li Wei?

These MPs and bigwigs may have the impression of Levi’s rebel soldiers only on the two general concepts of “very strong” and “professional”.

But this general knew very well that the combat qualities shown by the Li Wei rebels had reached the first sequence of the current Western European powers!

At the same time, the fighting will is even more flawless. When bayonets fight hand-to-hand, many guard infantrymen are defeated and still want to bite off a piece of flesh and blood from the enemy!

The guard infantry resisted several times their forces to attack in turn, and could still win, but it paid a considerable price.

When bayonets fought hand-to-hand, on average, each guard infantry had to face at least 6 enemy soldiers in the wheel battle!

Li Wei's judgment on the guard infantry was just one-two and one-two, far from reaching the point of one-two.

After all, people only have one pair of hands and two eyes, and are surrounded by many people and attack together, and they are easily killed.

Real battles are not like in movies and TV dramas. Extras will take turns to go up one by one, and then go up one by one after being knocked down…

Even the street gangsters knew that when fighting, everyone had to go up side by side to fight.
