Chapter 116 (2/2)

It is the people who have been fortunate enough to have a lot of contact with the outside world. Although they are not so brilliant, they have a certain view of the overall situation.

In the end, the two views dominated.

One is to take advantage of the military situation, and the regular army led by the army has no time to respond, to defeat the city defense forces of Soro City, and take advantage of the situation to attack the castle of Phelan.

The reason is very good. Phelan castle is the root of the Phelan family. It has been operating for many years and has accumulated a lot of materials and wealth. Once you take this place, you can equip the whole team. Under their rule, the whole city of Soro will expand to the surrounding areas. It will take no more than a month or two to grow up.

There are many people who support this practice, especially those generals of local ruffian origin. They follow the riot not for oppression and justice, but for money.

In their eyes, the castle of Phelan is the biggest treasure hole. As long as they capture this place, they will not care about the success or failure of the slave Gladiator uprising army. If they fail, they will also have a wealth at the bottom of the box, so that they can have a chance to change their faces and start again.

Most of those who oppose it are those who are more knowledgeable and look at the problem from a long-term perspective.

They think that the first method is very bad. It is still a question whether they can chew the hard bone of Phelan castle.

The Phelan family has been running the castle for hundreds of years. It is easy to defend but hard to attack. It can be seen by the discerning eye.

A long and narrow mountain road limits their advantage in number. The number of troops that will be thrown into the city at a time will not exceed 1000. The number of people will be piled up to deliver vegetables to the catapults and catapults at the head of the city. There is no advantage in the number of people. It is very difficult to capture a prepared castle.

What's more, the 20000 people they are now sitting on are not all slave gladiators. They can account for at most one fifth of them. The rest are slaves of Soro city and the bottom people who are dissatisfied with their life. Some are local ruffians who want to take advantage of the opportunity, and even some are small citizens who are forced to come in.

Both men and women, old and young, should be mixed up as much as possible. The combat effectiveness can be imagined.

These people tend to be roving bandits and develop themselves in the movement. The slave gladiators and slaves of the Manyu army leader are their best source of troops. They will grow and grow in the snowball, and finally become a torrent that will submerge the whole Manyu army leader.

However, the disadvantages of doing so are obvious. There is no logistics supply, and it is completely dependent on robbery along the way. Once they are defeated in attacking a city castle, they will face the dilemma of logistics supply shortage. Over time, it is inevitable that they will disintegrate.

With the increase of the scale, the pressure of logistic supply is also increasing. When the whole Manyu army is unable to be robbed, what should they do.

The two methods have their own advantages and disadvantages, no one can convince anyone, only to kick the ball to Starbuck and Dixon.

”Let's ask the two generals to make a decision. No matter what they decide, I will obey them unconditionally.””Yes, let's listen to the opinions of the two generals. After all, the uprising was launched by them, and they could not have been unprepared?”

”I also strongly support the decision of the two generals.”

Everyone's eyes again fell on Starbuck and Dixon, and Dixon's eyes fell on Starbuck. The other party was the initiator of the incident. He just passively brought in, and even if there was any hindrance, he came out of him.

What can I do later? Lofty ideals and high aspirations make complaints about

's success. But in his estimation, he can pull up the ranks of three thousand people.

In that case, they had no other way to go. They could escape the counter attack of the city defense forces and become rogue bandits, even if they succeeded.

After that, they should follow the path of the second situation. They can get more supplies and troops by attacking the city and pulling out the stronghold, and make them bigger and bigger.

However, I didn't expect that the city defense forces of Soro city did not do so. Only one day's efforts achieved the expected results of a month. Although it was a good thing, it also caught him by surprise.

More than 20000 people represent 20000 mouths. If they are well handled, they are their own soldiers. If they can't handle them well, they will eat them first.

But Starbuck knew that he must not reveal himself at the moment, or his reputation would be fatally damaged.

”Both methods are reasonable, but neither is comprehensive and desirable. We have just gathered together and are not suitable for a hard battle. If we win, our morale will soar, but if we fail, we will easily fall apart. ”

Starbuck was born in aristocracy. He had received relatively systematic education and study since childhood. His strategic vision was higher than that of all the people present, and he also had a deeper understanding of things.

”The most important thing for us now is to obtain the first military supplies. Only when we have enough supplies, can we advance and attack, and retreat far away.”

It was obvious that there was aristocratic vices in Starbuck, though well founded, that no real certainty had been made, and that neither side offended and let them listen to it.

”General Starbuck deserves to be a knight. He is more considerate than we are. We should be more confident than we are. When solo is so big, those greedy nobles can say more or less. Why should we just focus on the castle of Phelan? If we look for a few at random, we will have enough food and money to spend a few months. ”

”Yes, that's right. I know where there is a granary. It's a hereditary baron who has a fiefdom. The grain in it is stored in 10000 bags, so as to hoard goods and materials. When the grain shortage begins in spring, I can make a lot of money.”

”I know that a blacksmith's shop of hereditary Viscount should be stocked with a lot of weapons, enough for us to equip a hundred men team.”

”I know...”

”I know...”

Starbuck's words undoubtedly opened another window and aroused the enthusiasm of all the people. Many people couldn't wait to share their information, including those who had been in the shape of a saw mouth gourd.

Obviously, before this, they had their own plans, but after meeting Starbuck and Dixon, the plan ran aground.
