The news of the defeat of Iser and Albert's 300000 troops on the Rhineland plain soon reached pandragon.

Ilsa was having lunch.

After learning this sad news, Ilsa's knife and fork fell directly to the ground.

Ilsa was cold for a long time and her mind was blank.

When the waiter beside her woke Ilsa up, she cried out in a broken voice:

"Go and call Mr. Jacob and Mr. bancro!"

At this moment, Ilsa subconsciously called out the names of Jacob and bancro, who had always been escorting her.

State affairs have been going well since Ilsa took office.

This is the first time Ilsa, as the emperor, has encountered such a major crisis, which makes Ilsa feel at a loss

……

……

Britannia Empire, pandragon, Baiyang palace, Ilsa's study.

At this time, the atmosphere in Ilsa's study was more dignified than ever before.

Ilsa, Jacob, bancro... In short, everyone's expression was so heavy and serious.

They don't know how many years they haven't heard of this level of sadness.

Ilsa seemed to be crying at this time. She looked helplessly at the big map in front of the table and kept whispering:

"What to do... What to do..."

Just then, a big hand suddenly pressed Ilsa's shoulder.

"Calm down, your majesty."

The owner of this big hand is Jacob.

Jacob said to Ilsa in a calm and dignified tone:

"Your Majesty, Ethel and Albert are not dead, according to the information from the front line, although they have lost."

"Iser, Albert and 150000 remnant troops were heavily besieged in a basin somewhere in the Rhineland plain."

"Judging from the current actions of the Frankish army, they should want to besiege Iser until their supplies are exhausted and then start the attack. Therefore, Iser and them are safe at present."

"In other words, we now have time to send troops to save Iser and them."

"Although we have lost a lot of troops, our country still has considerable military strength enough to fight another decisive battle with the Frankish army."

"Your Majesty, the situation is far from bad enough to be pessimistic."

"So, your majesty, calm down and cheer up."

Jacob's gentle, calm and dignified voice seemed to have a kind of magic, which gradually restored Ilsa's calm.

"... well." Ilsa, who reappeared in her eyes, nodded heavily, "I see."

Then Ilsa stood up, faced the dignitaries in front of her, and bowed and said:

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper just now. As the emperor of the britannian Empire, I just showed that expression and said that. I really shouldn't have. "

Ilsa's sudden apology surprised everyone present.

Standing on Ilsa's side, Jacob secretly threw an appreciative look at Ilsa.

Being able to accept your own shortcomings and mistakes, and timely reflect on and apologize for your mistakes - this is a very valuable ability. This made Jacob look at Ilsa with a look of appreciation.

After apologizing to the people, Ilsa returned to her seat and began to discuss with the people present how to confront the Frankish army and restore the current situation.

The important officials present were mainly those military staff officers of the Central Committee.

Military staff is a post of the Central Committee, which is specially responsible for putting forward military suggestions for the emperor.

Generally speaking, military staff officers are held by knights who are not responsible for unifying the army, but there are also exceptions.

For example: bancro.

Bancro's position is foreign affairs director and military staff officer.

As the name suggests, this post is both responsible for commanding national diplomacy and making military suggestions for the emperor.

Bancro was one of those rare military staff of civilian origin.

Bancro is not only a rare military staff officer of civilian origin, but also the first of the military staff officers of the Central Committee at present.

Because bancro has a strong military capability, some people always make fun of bancro: if bancro doesn't go into politics or the army, it's not impossible to become the head of a knight order.

Bancro has always laughed off these jokes.

Because he knows that he just has a strong strategic ability and has no ability to command and command the army. If he joins the army, it is a problem whether he can become a knight, let alone the head of the Knights.

This time, Ilsa convened Jacob and the military staff headed by bancro to study and explore the current countermeasures.

Although Ilsa doesn't know much about military affairs, she can see that the top priority now is to mobilize troops!

Whether to rescue the remnant army of Iser on the Rhineland plain or gather troops to prepare for the next attack of the Frankish army, we must mobilize enough troops.

So Ilsa asked bancro directly:

"Bancro, I want the Franks back! And get Ethel and them back! What should I do? "

Bancro immediately explained to Ilsa:

"Your Majesty, there are four troops that our country can mobilize now."

"They are 120000 troops of the northern Michael knights, 150000 troops of the central urier knights, 100000 troops of the southern Rachel knights, and 100000 troops remaining in various strongholds of the Rhine front."

"First of all, the remaining troops on the Rhine front must not be mobilized."

"If the remaining 100000 troops on the Rhine front are transferred, there will be loopholes in the defense of the Rhine front."

"There are still some troops left on the Western defense line of the Frankish empire."

"If there is a defensive loophole in our Rhine front, the Frankish army still staying in the Western defense line will definitely take the opportunity to follow our loophole and attack our homeland."

"Therefore, in order to ensure the defense of the Rhine front, the 100000 troops on the Rhine front must not be mobilized."

"Then the 100000 generals of the order of Rachel on the southern front could not be mobilized."

"The 100000 troops of the Rachel Knights also need to be stationed on the broad front of the south to monitor the Lorraine empire."

"Although the Lorraine empire is now in power, we can't relax our vigilance."

"There are still some capable ministers in the Lorraine empire. They persuaded their stupid queen to send troops north to attack us while our country and the Frankish empire are in a hot fight - this is not an impossible thing."

"Therefore, there are only two troops that can be mobilized now - the Michael knights in the north and the Uriel Knights stationed in the center."

"Although the Michael Knights need to garrison the northern front and monitor the holy Hiram Empire, the northern front is different from the Rhine front and the southern front, and does not need to allocate a large number of troops to garrison each stronghold."

"As long as the Michal knights can hold a stronghold of muhawitz fortress, they can hold the eghar corridor and the whole northern front."

"Therefore, it does not need too many troops to garrison the Michael knights on the northern front, and can allocate a large number of troops to rush to help."
