Honorable Hubby Behind Me novel Chapter 5390

If the elder's face was still livid a second ago, then now his face was completely ashen. There were even a few moments when he almost fainted.

Although he suddenly noticed that something was wrong when Samuel retreated and there might be something wrong with the city defense of Nightsky City, he still couldn't help feeling angry when he really heard this confirmation.

What was even more hateful was that his group of stupid subordinates still didn't understand the reason at all.

"I don't know about this, either. But the two city defenses of Nightsky City have indeed fallen. The spy who came specially asked me to report to you. At the same time, the three marshals guarding the city have jointly made a statement. They will definitely defend the last city defense to the death."

"Humph, ridiculous, ridiculous, what a joke!" The elder shouted disdainfully, "Nightsky City has four sides of defenses. If we lose two sides, the three sides of the city will belong to the enemy. What's the point of holding on to one side?"

"Do the four of them really think that they'll be able to defend the side since they can't hold on from three sides?"

The three sides formed a triangle, which meant that their defensive area was relatively large, their vision was wide enough, and they had enough strategic buffer to use. Therefore, no matter what the enemy wanted to do, they could react immediately and coordinate to deal with the enemy.

This was the ideal way to maximize one's advantage.

On the other hand, if they joined forces, they would face the enemy's three-sided attack.

Although it was not a dead end, from another perspective, if they couldn't hold on with such an advantage, what would they use to hold on when they didn't have any advantage!

"I'm afraid this group of idiots won't be able to hold on when the time comes. It's fine if they can't hold on, but if they exhaust all my soldiers, then it'll be the most detestable and infuriating." The elder spoke with detest.

"Even now, I still can't believe that the city's defenses were lost."

"Yes, we... we simply planned everything out. How could Samuel and the others... How could they let us lose our city defense in this situation?"

The elder took a long breath and shook his head. "We have all been fooled by Samuel."

Samuel seemed to attack the main force to help the troops break out of the encirclement, but in fact, his real purpose was to attack the city defense.

Except, he'd taken a few more detours in this matter and repeatedly used the strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain, forming several stratagems within stratagems.
