Thankfully they let the British escape and proceeded to Paris asap.

And the French fought pretty bravely compared to say, The Danes who surrendered in an hour and a half.

I've just finished watching that series on the 100 years war, so it's good to see the French are finally getting some revenge. Though I suppose it's a bit much to hope they'll capture the English monarch and hold her captive for 10 years as we did to the French king.
I like that they called it "Mission Jeanne d'Arc".
