we are in 1758, france and england are at war. in summer, english prepared an invasion.on the cost north of brittany near st malo-cancale an english troop get out of boat. the french army is waiting.
a corp composed of welsh start singing a song of their country(in welsh) while they were walking.In front of them a company of breton from tregor.
as much closer they get from the other, the bretons stop, stupefied, this song was a gwerz, which was singing everyday in brittany, the bretons start singing the song with the welsh in their langage but with different accent, the welsh too stay immobile. the officers of the two armies ordered fire but the soldiers were petrified. but this hesitation was only for a moment: the emotion won over the discipline.
they droped their gun down and the cousin didn't kill themselves.
