Grand Duke Carl had just been released from prison when the French Army began its attack.
However, Grand Duke Carl did not hastily mount his horse; instead, he leaned on the saddle and listened for a while before suddenly asking Wilhelm, "Why hasn't the French Army used cannons?"
Wilhelm replied, "It seems that the French forces outside the city have come over without securing their supply lines—they're an isolated force with only infantry, no cannons have been spotted, nor any supply wagons."
Grand Duke Carl was shocked, and he confirmed once more: "Are you sure there aren't any cannons?"
Wilhelm nodded, "Indeed, there are none. Also, according to reports from the residents who fled into the city, their soldiers look very hungry, and everyone's ration bags are flat."
Carl: "Hungry and without cannons... Why would Frost make such a decision? This doesn't seem like his style."
