Together, we turned the landscape around the palace into a death trap. I ordered the forest behind the palace cut down to a distance of five hundred yards, and we used the trees to build rough walls and baffles that we soaked with napalm. The horses and deer all got brought through the palace and into the gardens; no reason to leave them in harm's way. An incredible amount of C4 got buried in a series of long trenches, with remote detonators, and the walls were supplied with rocket launchers and grenades.
