French trrops would just surrender after 5 weeks, like they did last time.

The "last time" they were civilians, all their military having more or less been wiped out.

The last time French troops fought bravely and fiercely, allowing the British to escape.

Sort of a joke that they just decided to draw this gray line now, given that Russian troops have been advancing for months
