On the Seven Towers

"Some magic can achieve it, but those magics are often not powerful enough." Gandas said, "And from the previous actions to spread the plague, we can see that the opponent has a lot of mages, and the number of great magicians exceeds ours. If we and When the opponent attacks magic, we will definitely be at a disadvantage, and our soldiers stationed on the city wall will become targets. "

"Then what are your thoughts? Are you giving up the advantages of Heimuguan and choosing to take the initiative?" Emperor Alfred asked.

"No, Your Majesty. On the contrary, I think we should abandon the level and let the other side in." Master Gandas said.

"Abandon the level? Gandas, what are you talking about?" Emperor Alfred said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, it seems that the city wall of Heimuguan is tall and solid, but our soldiers on top are actually completely exposed to the opponent's cannons and magic. They can only be attacked continuously by the opponent there, but there is no chance to fight back. . No matter how powerful our empire's army is, if we continue to fight like this, we will lose morale and eventually collapse.

But think about it on the other hand, what if we just give up the door? Their troops rushed in, but their artillery and magic lost their effect due to the obstruction of the city wall. It is impossible for those magics and cannonballs to climb over the city wall and hit a place very close to the city gate. On the contrary, we can set up a position inside the city gate and give them a head-on attack as soon as their people come in.

Wouldn't this be much better than them finally breaching the wall and rushing in? "

Emperor Alfred frowned deeply and stared at Gandas for a long time, as if he was thinking about his plan, "Gandas, if you hadn't come up with this plan, I would definitely suspect that he was from China. Human spy. Have you ever thought that after abandoning the city wall, once we lose the battle in the city, the situation will be irreversible? "

"Your Majesty, don't you think that if we were defeated on the city wall after being attacked, the situation would be even worse? If we are exposed to the opponent's shelling and magic, I think this kind of defeat is bound to happen." Gandas said.

Emperor Alfred turned to the others and asked, "What do the rest of you think of Master Gandas's plan?"

Duke Stuart said: "Your Majesty, this is a feasible plan. Although this method sounds a bit unreliable, in fact, the things Master Gandas said are reasonable and true. It will develop like that. But I think proper resistance is still necessary. We should deploy some strong ones in the air. They can use their height to avoid the opponent's magic and bombardment, and then give the opponent's attackers some damage."

Duke Weber said: "Since we want to let the doorway out, let's arrange some traps inside first."

Master Edel said: "We can arrange some explosive formations to cause heavy damage to the first wave of enemies that rush in."

"No, no, no, on the contrary, our traps must have no conspicuous effects." Duke Weber shook his head, "I think we can put a few curse arrays and poison gas arrays so that people who come in will be blessed by various negative magics. Unconsciously, the physical condition is reduced, and a slower-acting poison is arranged to allow them to run out of the doorway before they realize they are poisoned. This way, the enemies behind them will not be alerted, and a steady stream of enemies will fall into the trap. "

"Why do you all agree to such a timid plan? We have an advantage in military strength, and there is also a large group of beast cubs who have just obtained our bloodline. Isn't it just right for these people to charge into battle? Even if their bloodline is very thin, generally How many soldiers are there who are the opponents of these guys? I heard that some people are afraid of the small gadgets that the other party has that can shoot out metal projectiles. I think those things are similar to bows and arrows. As long as there are people in front of them, they can still attack. Don’t want to go? Look, there are only two to three thousand people, right?” Duke Marcus, who has the blood of the golden dragon, said loudly. He came from China and had not seen previous wars. They seem to look down upon the magic props in the hands of the Chinese. What's more, he couldn't bear to see his colleagues actually working together for such a cowardly plan.

"Marcus, those air guns and pneumatic cannons are not gadgets. Do you know how many people died on them when we captured Blackwood Pass? In addition to guns and cannons, they also have other weapons and magic. , charging against their formation, from far to near, there will be small artillery fire, throwing explosives, and will suffer various different attacks along the way close to them, not to mention that most of our troops are infantry. The previous cavalry charges have not yielded any good results," Duke Stuart said seriously, "According to your plan, it is not impossible for us to suffer very heavy losses.

"It's just some losses. Aren't beasts just for consumption?" Duke Marcus said.

"Whether they are ordinary soldiers or beast soldiers, they are the strength of the empire. They cannot be sacrificed in such a meaningless place." Duke Stuart said, "I have been guarding the camp on the north side of Heimuguan all year round. , we often face harassment and provocation from the kingdom’s troops. If we fight like you, all the border regiments on the western front of the empire will die.”

Duke Weber sneered and said: "The beasts with golden dragon bloodline have strong defensive power, and the dragon power generated by your direct bloodline can also suppress those warriors with thin bloodline. Why don't you lead the charge once and try it? How strong is the other party?"

"Hmph, the descendants of the golden dragon are never afraid of challenges. So what if I take the lead!" Marcus took two steps forward without showing any signs of weakness, and his daughter Cynthia beside him also took a step forward with her father.

"Okay, Marcus, use your courage in a real battle. I can testify that what the two dukes said is true. That kind of scene of gunfire, if there is no real battle with the Chinese, It's unimaginable to face each other.

The harassment team we just sent is the best example. When facing the Chinese escort, if the number of troops in hand is not enough and the strength is not strong, you will die in front of the rows of guns. "

Marcus said: "Your Majesty, do you really want to adopt their plan?"

Emperor Alfred said: "There is no better way at present, so let's implement it according to the compromise method of several adults."
