French feudal lords have long dared not aggravate the exploitation of land rent. /kloc-At the beginning of the 5th century, Britain attacked France again, and they besieged Orleans, an important gateway of France to the south. The French people organized guerrillas to fight against the British army. Joan, a teenage farmer, stepped forward and made up her mind to save the motherland in danger. She led the army into the city of Orleans, which was surrounded by the British for a long time. Her heroic behavior became a symbol of the patriotic enthusiasm of the French people.
