Bengt wants to put out crosses and rings in the squares of an $n \times n$-square, so that it is exactly one ring and exactly one cross in each row and in each column, and no more than one symbol in each box. Mona wants to stop him by setting a number in advance ban on crosses and a number of bans on rings, maximum one ban in each square. She want to use as few bans as possible of each variety. To succeed in preventing Bengt, how many prohibitions she needs to use the least of the kind of prohibitions she uses the most of?
