After listening to the messenger's report, a displeasure appeared on Walter's face:

"After being besieged for so long, he can still maintain his combat effectiveness." Walter said in a deep voice, "Can they say... their supplies have not been exhausted yet..."

As soon as Walter's low fell, Bazel, who was sitting next to Walter, immediately said:

"Walter, since the remnants of Issel and Albert still have a certain combat power, we should stop the attack for the time being and don't waste precious military power."

"Yeah." Walltee nodded, "That's right."

After saying that, Walter turned his head and said to a senior general beside him:

"Tell the order and inform the frontline troops to stop the attack and withdraw."

"Yes." The general said, lit it hard, and then quickly walked out of the tent.

After the general left the tent, Walter whispered again:

"It's really surprising. I didn't expect that the remaining troops of Isel and Albert were besieged by us for so long, and the supplies have not been exhausted yet. How many supplies are there in their army now..."

"Maybe it's because there are a lot of food left in their army," Bazer continued, "but no matter how much they have, as long as we continue to siege, their supplies will definitely be exhausted."

Walter and his team's goal is very clear, that is, to trap Isel and Albert's remaining troops, and to wait until their supplies are exhausted and the soldiers are starved to the point where they can't even take their weapons, and then launch a general attack.

By then, the remnants of Issel and Albert could be wiped out at an extremely low cost.

It is precisely because of this that Walter just ordered the attack to be suspended after learning that the combat troops on the front line had encountered tenacious resistance.

Walter and the others didn't want to waste their precious military power.

Since the remnants of Issel and Albert still retain a certain combat power, don't fight first. When their supplies are exhausted and the soldiers completely lose their resistance, it will not be too late to launch an attack.

Anyway - they have plenty of time at present, and for a long time in the future, there is no need to worry that the Britannian Empire will send new troops to attack them entrenched in the Rhineland Plain.

Because, Walter and the others now know that Alan, who was originally going to lead the Knights of Uriel and other troops to attack them, had already launched a mutiny on the banks of the Yenne River, betrayed the Britannian Empire, and returned to the embrace of the Frank Empire.

At present, Allen has led the Ullir Knights and other troops to advance westward, with the troops heading directly to Pandragon, the capital of the Britannian Empire.

In order to deal with the rebels led by Allen, the central government of the Britannian Empire must be in a state of great difficulty and had no time to deal with the hundreds of thousands of Frank troops on the Rhineland Plain and the Issu River.

After ordering to suspend the attack on the remaining Issel army in the encirclement, the generals who remained in the tent of this formation started chatting without realizing it.

As we chatted, everyone talked about the fact that the Knights of Uriel and the Iron Armored Reis headed straight to Allen, who was leading the Knights of Uriel and the Armored Reis to Pandragorn.

“那个艾伦·琼斯,真是走了狗屎运了.”巴泽尔嘴角一扯,露出一抹冷笑,“攻陷布列颠尼雅帝国的国都潘德拉贡——这种人人都渴求的宝贵战功,竟然落到他的头上了.”

"I don't know how generous rewards will be received after General Jones conquered Pandragon..." a general responded.

And just after the general finished speaking, Walter spoke:

“I had heard some rumors about Alan Jones’s reward before the Nibelungan project began.”

"As far as I know, if Alan Jones lurked in the Britannian Empire can make outstanding contributions to this Nibelungen project, he will be able to gain the right to add the word "Feng" to his name."

As soon as Walter said this, the generals, including Bazel, in the tent, looked surprised.

"'Von'?!" Bazer exclaimed, "Wouldn't that mean that if General Jones made outstanding contributions to this Nibelungen plan, he would have the opportunity to get rid of 'civilianity' and become a noble?!"

"It should be." Bazel nodded, "Conquering Pandragon - this is an amazing achievement. If Alan Jones really accomplishes this feat, get rid of the civilian status and become a nobleman, and his name becomes 'Alan von Jones', it will be a foregone conclusion."

Speaking of this, Walter paused.

As if I remembered something, I added again:

"At that time, General Jones will not only be the first person in the history of our Frank Empire to become a general as a civilian, but also the first person to successfully add the word "Feng" to the name by relying solely on military merit."

The Frank Empire was a country with a strong sense of class.

In the Frank Empire, it is quite simple to identify whether a person is a noble, just look at whether his name contains the word "Feng".

When a civilian obtains the emperor's title, gets rid of "common people's citizenship" and becomes a noble, the word "Feng" will be added to the name.

Because of the strong sense of class, in the Frank Empire, it was difficult for a civilian to become a nobleman.

It is also because of this that the generals in the account were so surprised after learning that Allen had the opportunity to become a noble through this Nibelungen plan.

After a while, after coming back from surprise, Bazel nodded softly and said in a deep voice:

“琼斯大将成为贵族吗……也好.身为法兰克帝国的大将,就应该是贵族才对.一介平民做大将——成何体统.”

As soon as Bazer finished speaking, he received the consent from the rest of the tent.

Even Walter nodded and agreed to what Bazer said just now:

"Bazel, you are right. The senior generals and officials in our country should be held by nobles, let alone dignified generals."

"If Alan Jones can really become a noble with this opportunity, I can also accept that he is one of us and my colleague."

Speaking of this, Walter suddenly changed into a half-joking tone.

"To be honest," Walter continued, "I have never treated that Alan Jones as my own."

"I always disliked him after I learned that Alan Jones, a civilian, was going to be promoted to general for many years."

"Every time I see his full name without the word "Feng", I feel quite dazzling."
