With Cecil's rage, everyone in the hall couldn't help but shrink their necks and immediately fell silent.

Although Atum did not yet have any signs of launching a general attack, they knew in their hearts that once the enemy launched an all-out attack, it would be difficult to stop them with the wall of Baria Pass, which was less than ten meters away.

This is not a megalithic fortress, even the siege ladders need to be specially crafted, and Atum has a lot of time and means to make siege equipment, and even they have time to start making catapults and siege engines from nearby trees now.

At this time, if there is no good idea to stop Atum, it is better to be a dumb person honestly, this is the unanimous thought in the hearts of everyone present.

And Cecil saw that this group of people were either watching their noses and noses and pretending that they were none of their business, or they were bent their necks and pretending to be quails, and the anger in his heart couldn't stop rising.

If he were given a knife now, perhaps he would kill one or two people to deter them and establish his own majestic image.

"A bunch of rice buckets!, don't you have any other use than greed for life and fear of death and being content with pleasure?!"

Even though most of the generals present were some minor nobles, Cecil still scolded angrily, he was not afraid of offending people.

His reputation was already bad when he betrayed Atum, and now he has only one way to go as Phil's vicious dog, and he will inevitably offend these nobles in the future.

"There are too few soldiers at the Baria Pass, and the space in the walls is a little small, so there is no way to arrange a large number of soldiers to defend at the same time, and even if all of our men rush up, we will not be able to stop the enemy. ”

A slightly older nobleman spoke lightly after Cecil had finished growling, he didn't seem to mind Cecil's disrespect, and at his age he had already seen a lot of things.

And he didn't speak when the other generals were arguing before, he just closed his eyes slightly and took a nap, and when he got older, he didn't have enough energy.

"Viscount Newt has a point, and the Baria Pass is not an easy type to defend and difficult to attack, it was originally just a toll booth set up by local nobles, but the not wide wall is actually not a disadvantage for us, after all, the number of enemies attacking the wall at the same time will be relatively small. ”

A young general sitting next to Viscount Newt also spoke his opinion, he was not a nobleman, but he was a confidant of Viscount Newt.

As they basically spoke, the surrounding noble generals also nodded thoughtfully, and then opened their mouths to agree, and even a few people put forward different opinions and perfect suggestions.

It's not that they don't have enough vision, and the people who have been able to get to this point are generally not waste, it's just that too long of comfortable life has corrupted their minds.

"But General Cecil, these are not the things we should be concerned about at the moment, the most important thing we should think about is why Atum keeps sending people to harass and not really attack. ”

After a while, Viscount Newt, who had been silent after opening the topic, spoke again, and he always felt that Atum had something else in mind.

Judging by the dealings they had had with each other over the years, he would not be naïve enough to think that Atum was doing meaningless actions.

"His purpose is very simple, it is to paralyze the will of our soldiers, and wait until we think he will not attack. Cecil sneered.

is worthy of being the person who was once second only to Atum, what he wants to do and what ideas he wants to fight are all seen through by Cecil very simply, but it is one thing to be able to see through it, and it is another thing to be able to make corresponding plans.

This kind of tactic that can be said to be a scoundrel makes Cecil feel a headache, knowing what the opponent's idea is, but his side still can't let down his vigilance, who knows when Atum will suddenly attack?

But if this continues, their soldiers will not be able to hold on, and the mental load brought to them by the reversal of day and night for a long time is very huge.

These soldiers are not extraordinarily strong, and what is worse is that some of these soldiers are militiamen, the kind that usually farms, because some nobles have a relatively small population in their territories, and their soldiers are usually semi-farming.

When there is no task, they are peasants, and when it is their turn to garrison the town, they put on leather armor or even cloth armor to serve as patrol soldiers in the territory, and the combat effectiveness of such people can be imagined.

"That's the case, do you all have a better way to break the situation?"

Cecil asked a little depressedly, if he had a way, he would never have summoned these people to make himself angry, but there is great power in numbers, and so many people will always have one or two ideas that can be used as references.

But what made his heart stuff was that as soon as he said this, everyone was quiet again, even Viscount Newt and his henchmen were silent.

Seeing this situation, General Cecil almost squirted out a mouthful of old blood wine, and his face seemed to be covered with dark clouds, and he was gloomy and about to drip water.

"Alas, General Cecil, what can we do now? ”

Seeing that the meeting fell into an awkward and strange silence again, Viscount Newt had to open his eyes again and say his opinion, he was the descendant of General Cecil, and it was most appropriate for him to come forward to solve the siege at this time.

Who made him unwilling to accept the decline of his family, and as soon as his brain was hot, he agreed to the envoy from Slovin and rebelled with General Cecil?

"I'm afraid this Atum won't give us a chance. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a fat nobleman with a mustache touched his beloved mustache, sighed and picked up the conversation.

caused the angry eyes of a group of people around him, this person really doesn't know how to speak.

Even Viscount Newt choked on the words.

Suddenly, at this moment, a panicked guard burst through the door, and before many noble generals could reprimand the fellow who trespassed into the council hall, he fell to his knees in the hall with a pop as he entered.

"General, the city gate is in an emergency! Atum has rushed up the city wall with his troops!" he exhaled with a pale face, and he didn't even know where to throw the sword at his waist.

With a bang, the whole council hall exploded, Cecil got up violently with an ugly face, and the bearded nobleman who spoke just now couldn't help but shrink his neck, and beads of sweat soon flowed down his face.

Unexpectedly...... I really got it right......
