After hearing bancro's words, Gail's face showed hesitation again.

Gail knows better than anyone how important the country is.

Gail didn't want to give up pandragon, the capital of the British Empire, if he could.

But the reality in front of him is quite cruel - judging from the residual garrison strength of the current imperial capital, it is impossible to hold pandragon.

But... Gail's heart, in fact, still retains some luck

Under the steps, Gail's head ached again with the cries of the main war faction led by bancro and the main withdrawal faction led by Alfred and afra.

Gail closed his eyes, raised his hand and rubbed his left temple.

After a little thought, he slowly opened his eyes.

"All right." Gail said to bancro, "bancro, I'll give you another 10 days."

The fluke left in Gail's heart told Gail that there might be a chance to hold pandragon.

As soon as Gail's words fell, bancro's face was full of joy. Then he quickly lowered his head and thanked Gail.

As for Alfred and Aphra, they were very angry.

"Your Highness!" Alfred shouted to Gail, "this..."

However, before he finished, Gail raised his hand and stopped Alfred with a gesture.

"Stop talking." Gail said positively, "I've made up my mind to give bancro them another chance."

Then Gail turned his head and looked at bancro again.

"Bancro, this is the last chance I can give you."

"If after 10 days, you still fail to formulate a tactic that can hold pandragon, then you can't complain and obstruct pandragon's giving up."

"Yes!" Bancro shouted, "Your Highness, your highness, I promise that if we fail to formulate a strategy that can hold pandragon in 10 days, we will not have any complaints and obstacles to pandragon's abandonment!"

Speaking of this, bancroton said for a moment, and then shouted again:

"Your Highness, please promise your highness another request!"

"Say."

"In the next 10 days, please allow me not to come to Baiyang palace again!"

"I intend to focus all my energy on the formulation of city defense tactics in the next 10 days!"

As soon as bancro's voice fell, Gail nodded:

"Well, yes. I approved it. "

"Thank you, your highness!"

Seeing this, the main withdrawal faction led by Alfred and afra gnashed their teeth because of their unwillingness and resentment.

However, Gail has personally said that he wants to give bancro them another chance, so Alfred and they can't say anything about it

……

……

"Alas..."

Bancro, sitting in his carriage, let out a long sigh full of fatigue.

Because of fatigue, bancro, who was slumped in the car chair, looked soft and seemed to have no bones.

"Your Excellency." The coachman who was driving the carriage said to bancro in the carriage, "you look more tired than ever."

"Well, yes." Bancro smiled bitterly, "I'm really tired today..."

Naturally, bancro could not talk about today's state affairs with his coachman, so bancro stopped talking after talking about it.

The coachman who had followed bancro for many years also knew very well that this kind of thing should not be asked, so at this time, he closed his mouth and didn't ask bancro what happened today.

Bankrola opened the curtain hanging above the window and looked out of the window.

Looking at the increasingly sparse flow of people on the road outside the window, bancro couldn't help muttering:

"After living here in pandragon for decades, I saw the streets of pandragon so empty for the first time..."

After the news that "Alan launched a mutiny and led the rebels to attack pandragon" spread to pandragon, pandragon citizens who were afraid of the war began to escape from the imperial capital in large numbers.

The central government of the British Empire did not stop these citizens who fled the imperial capital.

Because whether we want to stick to pandragon or give up pandragon, it is not suitable for a large number of citizens to live here.

Therefore, the central government of the British Empire not only did not prevent the citizens from escaping from pandragon, but also sent a large number of personnel to help the citizens evacuate.

Every day, a large number of citizens fled pandragon with their families, or fled to nearby surrounding cities, or directly fled back to their hometown.

Bancro also asked the mayor of pandragon today: how many people are there in pandragon now.

According to the statistics of the mayor of Pendragon, as of today, there are only over 400000 people in Pendragon, which originally had a population of more than 1 million.

More than 1 million people, now only some 400000 people are left - that is, more than half of the population has escaped from pandragon.

Without most of the population, pandragon is now quite empty and quiet.

It's getting close to dusk. In the past, the street used to be quite crowded.

But in recent days, the street is quite empty. Looking out of the window, there are few pedestrians in the street.

After bancro's emotion fell, the coachman answered in a half joking tone:

"But it's also good that the streets have become empty. Now driving a carriage on the streets will not be bet on the streets by the flow of people or traffic."

After hearing the coachman's joke, bancro tilted his mouth slightly and smiled a few times:

"Yes, but - I still prefer Pendragon to be what it used to be."

……

……

"Sir! Your excellency! "

The coachman's voice woke bancro who was taking a nap on the bus.

"Sir! Already home! "

"Oh... Home..." bancro rubbed his sleepy eyes, then walked down the door opened by the coachman and got out of the carriage.

After getting out of the carriage, bancro walked nonstop towards his house.

After entering his house, he kept walking to the study of the house.

After pushing open the door of the study, bancro saw several military staff who were busy in the study.

Since all the military staff officers were summoned to this study and decided to formulate the city defense tactics in this study, bancro's study has completely changed.

Paper, books, maps... All kinds of things filled the study.

There are also several large and long tables in the study. Each large and long table is equipped with different maps, and the military staff mainly work around these maps on the large and long table.
