"How are the city defenses?" Alexander turned to Menes.


"No problem." Menes waved his large palm to reassure Alexander, adding, "As you said the city was built to resist Tibias. Its walls are still high and strong and we will have no problem defending it with so many soldiers at our hands."


"Hmmm, that's good." Alexander nodded, pleased that there was little chance of his city being sniped out under his nose.


With the defense secure, he then turned to focus on the offense.


He then raised a critical issue about the military, "The phalanx has shown some serious flaws in our last battle. And Zanzan is even more hilly than Adhan. So, this flaw will continue to manifest itself even more in the future. How do my military commanders intend to fix this?"


This very hard question drew blanks from everyone.


All understood that the phalanx had become obsolete but what Alexander was asking them to do was close to impossible.
