Chapter 557: Chapter 436: The Great Naval Battle

Under the circumstances of the water blockade, the fate of the officers and soldiers who held out in the Fergus Battery could be imagined.

Before his death, Major Ronald, the commander of the battery, left these words for his soldiers: "Comrades, our blood is running out. Life is given to each of us by God, it is the hateful war that has robbed us of our only life, and in order to eliminate this war, we have failed in our life, long live peace!"

Although the Fergus Battery was eventually occupied by the Germans, the unwavering will of Major Ronald and the French soldiers defending the battery touched not only the British media who came to report the latest news but also the French soldiers and people who learned about it.

After the fall of Fergus Battery, the German army faced unprecedented resistance in its subsequent attacks, unable to advance the front line any further and even at risk of losing the areas it had occupied.
