I have 8,000 lives on my shoulders, what is my ambition compared to that? What is my reputation compared to? My soldiers come first and George's life as a soldier means more to me than any medal. Once these soldiers' desire to fight is aroused, there is nothing they can't do. If you feel embarrassed, I don't want to force you. Don't worry, you can't force me if you try it. Hello soldier. sir. Ready to kill more Germans? Yes, sir. I see you wiping your rifle, well done, a rifle is a soldier's best friend, you are good to it, it will always be good to you. Good luck, soldier, and keep up the good work. If an officer lacks confidence, how can we expect his soldiers. Reckless actions put soldiers in danger, drink alcohol when they are on duty, kill their own people maliciously, face the enemy as timid as a mouse, and be insidious and cunning everywhere. These pussies don't want to eat German bullets, let them try French! Colonel Dax, I want each of your regiments to get 10 men out and get a taste of the death penalty for their cowardice. death penalty? Because of their cowardice, the blood flowing in their veins is not blood at all, I am afraid it is just some skim milk. This is probably the reddest milk I've ever seen, and my trenches are soaked. enough. I'm going to say it bluntly... If you continue this attitude, I will be forced to arrest you. The order must not have been feasible if some soldiers had not left the trenches. They received an order to attack, and it was their duty to obey the order. It was not the soldiers' turn to judge whether the order was feasible. If the order was not feasible, the only proof would be their corpses lying in the trenches. They're scum, Colonel, and the whole bunch is a pack of sneaky, mournful, tail-wagging dingoes. Colonel Dax, after this is over, I'll fix you, I'll find an excuse to demote you, I'll destroy you, this is what you got for showing a little loyalty to your superior. Gentlemen, you have to understand that it doesn't matter why you were chosen, for whatever reason, your life will stand on the judgment seat. Stick to what you say and don't be swayed by prosecutors. Remember, you are soldiers, and you are all senior officers here, pay attention to your identity, soldiers, brave soldiers. I've been to that courtroom, the sun will shine on your faces, so don't look downcast, when answering questions, look the judge in the eye, don't complain, plead or speak that's my job, a brief statement, Short, but for everyone to hear, don't go overboard, I'll sum it up for you, time is running out, the court session is 1 hour away, I'll take some notes, and good luck. Thank you, Colonel. Distinguished judges, I have been ashamed of being a member of the human race several times, and this will be the one time that it is impossible for me to make a concluding statement for the defense, and the court has not given me the opportunity to do so. Are you protesting against the authority of the court? Yes, sir. I protested that I was prevented from presenting evidence that was critical to the defense, that the prosecution did not present any witnesses, there was no written indictment at all, and finally protested that there was no shorthand record of this trial. Yesterday morning's attack is not a stain on the glory of France, and certainly not a shame on the nation, but this military court is a stain and shame, a mockery of human justice in the trial of these people. Honourable judges, convicting these people will be your sin and will haunt you for the rest of your life until you die, I can't believe that the most noble human compassion for others should be completely dead here, so I beseech you, have mercy these people. Don't be afraid of credit, as we will very politely decline. The story goes like this, a general, furious after a reckless attack failed, ordered his artillery to shell his own men, the same officer organized a military court on the same day and sentenced three of his soldiers to death, general, you What will the newspapers and politicians see and hear about this? you think threaten me? That's a bad word, sir, but you're in a difficult situation right now, too many things have happened, and some people are going to be hurt, the question is, who? The story goes like this, General Mireau's attack on Ant Hill failed, his order to shell his own troops was denied, but he attempted to murder three innocent people in order to protect his own reputation, but was successfully stopped by the general. Excuse me, Colonel Dax, for keeping my guests waiting.
