Who railed the french troops during the hundred year war?

Do you mean who rallied the French troops during the Hundred Years' War? That would unquestionably be Joan of Arc, a 17 year-old peasant girl who convinced the dauphin, the French crown prince, that God had chosen her to raise the siege of Orleans and then conduct him, the rightful heir to the French throne, to Rheims to be crowned King of France. The dauphin was so impressed by Joan, who told him a secret that only he could have known, that he gave her a great war horse, a new suit of armor, a steward, pages and heralds, and an army! Joan led this army to Orleans, a city which was the key to southern France and had been under siege by the English who already had control of northern France, (Paris, Normandy, etc.) for 7 months. In just 9 days, by her natural ability to make quick, sensible, tactical decisions and to inspire and lead her troops, Joan raised the siege of Orleans (May 1st to 9th, 1429). She then conducted the dauphin to Rheims, where he was crowned King of France on July 7th, 1429.
