The first thing that struck me was the scene when the French army launched a charge. You know that every step you take is a step toward death, but you still hold your crooked helmet and crawl forward clumsily. Is it the discipline you've been trained to whip behind you? Or is it driven by inner feelings of home and country? How unbearable it is to be dragged to the execution ground, I probably still have to force myself to believe that all this is sublime, so why can't I believe it? After all, it gave birth to me and raised me, how dare you say it is worthless? I would like to dedicate my life to it.
But when Colonel Dax made his statement in court, "Convicting these people will be your sin, and will haunt you for the rest of your life until you die", of course, I would like to believe that this is for victory, for morale, and for war , that's the rule! But it is also an excuse. Most people will choose to beg for mercy in front of the gun, and human beings will choose to turn back to beasts in the face of survival. How can they slander the choice of the brave for their cowardice? Something will occur if it belongs to your life, if not, do not push it.

Maybe they are weak and ignorant, and they will only survive like animals, but you have no right to sacrifice them to fulfill your nobleness, and there is no superhuman power. , can only hope that mankind will have a day of progress.
Finally, they also have tears, the artillery fire will not make them cry in unison, the singing will, what is the use of thinking at this time? Who is to blame?
