Bạn 4: *Bang* One guy died
Napoleon: Whenever I look at the sea, I imagine the future. Do you know

thing when coming here is to learn French.
 Thầy giáo: Now, let's get acquainted with French.
Cả lớp: We will all study hard.
Dẫn: In 1779, Napoleon had just turned 10 years old, the year he finished
his French studies, and continued to attend the Cavalry School.

become military officers in the future.
Napoleon: It's like a dream. I will study hard to become an excellent officer.
Dẫn: But Napoleon's studies at the cadet school were not smooth at all, he
was always teased by his classmates.
Bắt nạt 1: Hey, aren't you a country Corsican kid?

offspring!
Bắt nạt 3: Standing there and solely focusing on the head.

leader, please.

Bạn 1: The greatest is having someone to command and add extra
strategies!
Bạn 2: You attempt to discuss the strategy.
Napoleon: The attacking squad and the defensive team should be divided
into two groups. The idea is for the defensive side to gather the snow as the
attacking team charges in. Everyone must keep in mind that the attacking team
conceals effectively, and the defensive team definitely keeps in mind the snowball.
Các bạn: AGREE!!
Thầy giáo: *Tweet* Start
Napoleon: Everyone carries out the strategy in a calm manner.
Napoleon: RETREAT!
Bắt nạt 4: Didn't intend to fight but fled instead?

military school.

gold, adversity proves strength (lửa thử vàng gian nan thử sức)
