Chapter 1028: Delaying the Knights of Michael (Part 1)
Bancro spent nearly half an hour explaining the tactic he conceived to the military staff in detail.
After listening to Bancro's story, the military staff were all dumbfounded.
"Mr. Bancro..." A military staff officer's eyes widened, "This... no one has ever used this method to defend a city in history..."
"Mr. Bancro...can this tactic work..."
The military staff officers raised objections and questions of their own.
As soon as they finished speaking, Bancro said angrily:
"It is because I don't know whether this tactic is feasible that I asked you to collect these important information and then study together whether this tactic is feasible or not."
Speaking of this, Bancro's expression gradually became serious.
"Everyone, do you know what is the biggest disadvantage that our 'main battle faction' faces when we face the 'main withdrawal faction'?"
"The biggest disadvantage we have to face is that our 'warrior faction' cannot come up with an effective method to defend Pendragon!"
“When people from the ‘Legacy Movement’ ask us: How do we plan to defend Pendragon, we can only say nothing or change the subject.”
"We can't come up with an effective way to defend Pendragon - this is the Achilles' heel of our 'main war faction'!"
"If this problem is not resolved, it is absolutely impossible for us to defeat the 'main withdrawal faction'!"
"So, no matter what, we must come up with a reliable city defense tactic that can convince the "main withdrawal faction" and His Highness the Regent to make up his mind to defend Pendragon!"
"The current defensive strength of Pendragon is extremely weak. If we follow the conventional defense strategy and defend Pendragon's city wall, our military strength will not last long."
"If you want to defend Pendragon before Su Cheng leads the Michael Knights back, the only possible way to succeed is to use the tactic I just told you."
"I also know that no one in history has ever used this tactic to defend a city."
"However, currently this is the only tactic that can possibly buy enough time for the Michael Knights to come over!"
“There is no historical experience to draw from;
So we can only rely on ourselves to slowly explore whether this tactic is feasible and how to implement it. "
Bancro looked at the military staff in front of him with a serious face.
His eyes passed over their faces one by one.
"Pendragon's life or death will be decided by us, in this study."
"Everyone, would you like to help me?"
After Bancro's words, the military staff standing in front of Bancro looked at each other.
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. Use eye contact.
Gradually, as their eyes continued to communicate, the confusion and hesitation on their faces slowly disappeared.
What followed was a look of determination.
"Mr. Bancro." Someone finally said, "I hope that you will obey me."
"Me too."
"Same as the lower official."
"I just said that as long as I can defend Pendragon, I am willing to do anything."
…
The six military staff officers all looked at Bancro with firm eyes and expressed their willingness to fight side by side with Bancro to the end.
Bancro moved his eyes again, scanning the faces of the six colleagues who had worked with him for many years.
After scanning the six determined faces one by one with his eyes, the corners of Bancro's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a slight smile.
"In that case, let's get to work without further ado. Bring me the map of Pendragon's town and the map of the sewers!"
"yes!"
The military staff gave Bancro all the town maps and sewer maps of Pendragon that they had bought after "sweeping" all the bookstores in Pendragon.
After Bancro briefly looked at each map, he picked out the most detailed one and laid it out on the long table in front of him.
Under Bancro's command, various military staff officers cooperated with Bancro to carry out their respective tasks.
"Give me the paper and pen and ink there! Oh, and that ruler and compass over there!"
"yes!"
"You mark all the sewer openings in Pendragon!"
"yes!"
"You circle all the buildings in Pendragon that are higher than 3 stories!"
"yes!"
"You are responsible for painting all the stone avenues in Pendragon with red lines!"
"yes!"
…
…
Britannian Empire, Rhineland Plain, Frankish Army Land Forces, Main Formation.
General Walter von Zimmermann, commander-in-chief of the Nibelungen Plan and commander of the 2nd Formation, was sitting in the large tent of the formation.
Also sitting in the main tent of the formation were General Bazel von Ludendorff, the commander of the 1st formation, and other senior generals in the army.
The reason why they are all sitting in the camp's big tent is not because they are having a party, but because they are waiting for the battle report from the front line.
Up to now, they have been besieging Iser's remaining army for a while.
In order to test whether Iser's remnant army had exhausted their supplies, at dawn today, Walter ordered a general attack on Iser's remnant army trapped in the encirclement.
At this time, they gathered in the camp's tent, waiting for the battle report from the front line.
Walter sat on a folding stool, folding his arms, closing his eyes to rest, and waiting for the messenger to pass on the specific situation of the front line.
A small folding stool - this thing is one of the special equipment of the Frankish army.
Looking at the whole continent, only the armies of the Frankish Empire and the vassal states of the Frankish Empire use this small folding stool.
The armies of other countries, such as the Britannia Empire and the Holy Hilan Empire, all use ordinary chairs.
In fact, over the years, some voices have appeared within the Britannia Empire, calling on the central government to order the Frankish Empire to learn from the Frankish Empire and promote this small folding stool in the army, because this folding stool is not only small enough, but also foldable, so it is very easy to carry compared to those ordinary chairs.
Even the commander-in-chief of the Nibelungen Plan was silent, and the other generals naturally did not dare to overstep their boundaries and make a sound.
Everyone was in silence, waiting for the battle report from the front line.
Finally - a sound of footsteps came from far away outside the tent.
Then, the guards outside the tent reported:
"Commander! A messenger is requesting to come in!"
As soon as the guard finished speaking, Walter suddenly opened his eyes:
"Let him in!"
"Yes!"
The curtain of the big tent was lifted.
A messenger covered with a lot of dust walked into the tent.
After entering the tent, the messenger directly reported to Walter and the generals in the tent:
"Commander! Our army encountered extremely strong resistance, and the battle on the front line was quite fierce!"
