Chapter 1071: Street Fighting
The birthplace of this sound is located at the gate of the Council Hall.
As soon as the voice fell, everyone in the conference hall looked in the sound.
At the gate of the conference hall, there was an old man with a rather haggard face.
However, although the old man's face was haggard, his eyes were extremely vivid.
After turning his gaze on the old man and seeing the old man clearly, Ilsa couldn't help but exclaim:
"Mr. Bancrolo?!"
"Your Majesty." The old man... or Bancro, smiled at Ilsa, "Long time no see. It's great that you can be safe."
"Bankro!" Jacob shouted Bankro's name in an uncontrollable tone of excitement.
"Jacob, I haven't seen you for a long time. But now isn't the time to gossip, so let's talk about the serious matter first."
After saying that, Bancroo raised a roll of things in his hand.
It was not until Bancroo took the roll of things in his hand that some people in the chamber noticed that Bancroo had always held a roll of things in his hand.
The thing that Bancrole held in his hand was very large. If spread out, the width should be 1 meter wide.
Bancrono turned his gaze and looked at Alfreid, who had been casting bad eyes at him since the beginning.
"His Excellency Bancrole." Alfret asked Bancrole in a calm tone, "What does the words of the Lord just now mean?"
"Literally," Bancrore replied in an equally calm tone, "Who says we can't hold on to Pandragon?"
"Hmph." Alfreud smiled with a snorkeling, "His Excellency Bancrore, since your official will appear here, it means that your official has worked with other military staff to develop a city-defense plan that will make the official feel quite confident. Are you right?"
“That’s exactly that.”
"Where are the other military counselors? Why are there only the nobles here?"
"They all fell asleep in the study at Xiaguan's house. They were already exhausted. After announcing 'we succeeded', they fell asleep on the ground."
"So that's it." Alfreud nodded, "Before the city-defending tactics formulated by your officials were announced, your officials announced good news to their colleagues. It seems that your officials are really confident about the city-defending tactics formulated by you."
Bancrolo pulled the corner of his mouth and showed a faint smile:
"So you can say that."
Bancrolo's words seemed to make Alfreud very unhappy.
After sneering, Alfret said in a joking tone:
"Then——I am willing to listen carefully."
"At present, we can only gather thousands of people to defend the city at most."
"I want to see how your official intends to use this little force to defend the vast walls of Pandragon."
After Alfrid finished speaking, Bancro suddenly gave an answer that everyone felt unexpected:
"Defend the city? Your Excellency Alphrede, what is your official talking about?"
"Who said that I plan to defend Pandragon's walls to the death?"
Bancrolo's words made many people, including Alfreid, confused.
Among these confused people, Ilsa and Gale also included.
"Not defending the city?" Yalfret said with a frown, "I am the one who wants to ask the question of 'What is your official talking about', right?"
"If you don't defend the city wall, how can you defend a city?"
Most of the people present did not understand military affairs very well.
And Yalfreid also happened to be one of the big gangs who did not understand military affairs.
In their perception, the so-called city defense war means sending a large number of soldiers to the city wall, guarding every inch of land on the city wall, and not allowing any enemy soldiers to climb the city wall.
At the same time, you should also pay attention to some conspiracies that the enemy can make.
For example, pay attention to the enemy's spies sent into the city, and pay attention to whether the enemy will attack the tunnel...
If the situation allows, you can send small troops out of the city from time to time to harass the enemy troops outside the city.
Keep guard until the enemy can't hold on, or until a large number of reinforcements arrive.
The above is the full understanding of the tactic of defending the city and fighting.
Therefore, what Bancrolo said just now had a direct impact on their cognition.
They simply couldn't imagine - if they didn't defend the city wall, how would they defend the city?
As everyone cast doubtful eyes at him, Bancrolo cleared his throat and then said loudly:
"Everyone should know that our imperial capital, Pandragon, is an irregular city with seven walls."
"When the army besieged a city, there is often an empty wall and not attacking it. That is, it is deliberately left with a gap."
"If we encircle the enemy, it may prompt the city defenders to make up their minds to fight to the death."
"On the contrary, if a gap is deliberately left, it may cause the defenders in the city to sway between running away or fighting to the death, causing the soldiers in the city to lose their fighting spirit."
"That is to say--when Allen's rebels come to the city, there will inevitably be at least one wall that will not be attacked."
"That's how it counts, there are 6 walls that will be attacked by the Allen rebels."
"If we want to defend the city wall, we have to disperse our already small force on these six walls."
"There are too many city walls, and we currently have too few troops."
"There are not many troops, and you still have to divide the troops - this is a pretty stupid behavior!"
"It is impossible to defend Pandragon's vast walls with our weak forces!"
"So, we must never guard the city wall!"
After quietly listening to Bancro's long speech, Alfreud asked in an impatient tone:
"Then——the nobleman told me, if we don't guard the city wall, how can we defend Pandragorn?"
"It's very simple!" Bancro looked directly at Alphried with a torched gaze, "Give up the walls and put the battlefield in the city!"
"What?!" As soon as Bancrolo finished speaking, many people, including Alfreid, exclaimed in surprise.
Bancrolo's words just now had an impact on their perception again.
Just then, Enley suddenly raised his eyebrows.
Then he asked Bancrolo:
"Mr. Bancrore, do you mean...a street fight with Allen's rebels?"
"That's right!" Bancrolo nodded vigorously.
Then, he quickly walked to the center of the conference hall, placed the roll of things he had just held in his hand on the floor, and spread them out in one breath.
This volume of things turned out to be a volume of maps.
A roll of city map of Pandragon.
To put it more accurately, it is a city map of Pandragon with various circles and lines.
