Chapter 1051 (1/2)
Although the accession ceremony of the Regent was over, the ministers in the Council hall still did not disperse.
Because after Gail is successfully placed on the throne of Regent, they will formally discuss the next important thing - whether pandragon will stick to it or give up?
The waiters brought a chair and put it a little later next to the throne.
Gail sat on the throne and watched the ministers under him argue fiercely about the issue.
”The view of the lower officials will not waver!” Aphra shouted, ”we can't hold pandragon without soldiers and knights! Since you can't keep it, you should give up pandragon! Retreat to the West and establish a new capital! ”
”Give up pandragon?” A military staff officer said, ”the capital of the country is the foundation of the country! Once Allen's rebels come to the capital of the country, do you know how much it will hit the morale of the army and the hearts of the people? ”
”I don't agree with you!” Now the speaker becomes Alfred.
Like Aphra, Alfred was also a firm ”main withdrawal faction”.
”Who said that if the country is captured by the enemy, the country will be doomed?”
Alfred asked the military staff officer in a sharp tone.
”There are ready-made examples in history that tell us that even if the country is captured by the enemy, it still has a chance to win the final victory!”
”Isn't the Frankish empire a good example?”
”More than 100 years ago, under the attack of China's' four stars', the capital of the Frankish empire fell, and the Frankish Empire moved its capital to the present Bailu.”
”The Frankish empire was defeated by China, the capital fell and was forced to move. Did the Frankish Empire perish?”
”In only five years, the Frankish Empire successfully launched a comprehensive counter offensive! Recovered the old capital, recovered all the lost land, and pushed the border back to the East Bank of the Rhine! ”
”Today we can emulate the Frankish Empire, give up pandragon and move our capital to the west, so as to win valuable time for our counter offensive and final victory!”
Alfred's words were echoed by many people.
However, the staunch ”main war faction” led by bancro were not fooled by what Alfred had just said.
”Another country is another country! Our country is our country! How can we apply the experience of other countries to our country! ” A military staff officer vehemently refuted, ”the 'Quartet star' offensive more than 100 years ago failed to successfully destroy the Frankish Empire because of our insufficient preparation and problems in logistics deployment, resulting in supplies that could not keep up!”
”If our supplies could keep up with the speed of our march at that time, we would have successfully destroyed the Frankish empire as early as the 'Quartet star' offensive more than 100 years ago!”
”The attack of the Frankish empire on our country is clearly an invasion that has been prepared for a long time!”
”Do you think the Frank Empire, which has been preparing for this battle for a long time, will make the mistake that our supplies could not keep up more than 100 years ago?”
”The 'four star' offensive more than 100 years ago made the Frankish Empire escape because China's supplies could not keep up and fight!”
”It's not because the Frankish Empire moved its capital that it escaped!”
”Don't make a mistake about this causality!”
The entanglement of these ”main war faction” has long made the ”main withdrawal faction” led by afra and Alfred very dissatisfied.
”If you don't give up pandragon, tell me - how can we keep pandragon?” Afra screamed, ”do you want to let civilians who have no military training go to the battlefield with weapons?”
