He’s telling Montjoy they have the advantage.

My numbers lessen’d, and those few I have

Almost no better than so many French.

To the soldiers listening, he’s lost faith in them. They look at him thinking ‘What is he doing?’ It’s a weird card to play.

He’s shot his load for the moment, bravado-wise.

If we may pass, we will; if we be hinder’d,

We shall your tawny ground with your red blood

Discolour.
