Chapter One(1/2)

There was a patch of colorful clouds on the horizon, and I stared at it for a long time.

Red, a piece of blood red, so bright, yet desolate and strange.

It's exactly the same as the blood of hundreds of thousands of rioters.

There is no doubt that I won a complete victory in the first round of the battle with the Demon Alliance. But I can't let go of the deaths of hundreds of thousands of rebels in the Camp Empire - I didn't kill them, but they died because of me.

According to my original thoughts, including the turmoil in the royal family, the civil strife in Camp should continue for at least a month and a half. But I didn't expect that hundreds of thousands of troops from the Fifth Army would kill everyone on sight, leaving corpses everywhere.

All red...as if they were not the subjects of the Demonic Alliance, but the sworn enemies with whom they hated each other to the core.

They rolled their swords and wiped away the fog that shrouded me. From then on, my army and I had to go from behind the scenes to the front and engage in a head-on fight with the demon alliance.

And this is what I least want to see.

"Well..." I let out an unconscious moan and put my right hand on my cheek.

"Boss, how about we go back?" This was Jack speaking, "You have been sitting here for a long time."

"Why are you going back? Isn't it nice to look at the sunset?" I simply closed my eyes.

"Mafa should be back, he will bring back information."

Jack spoke carefully. He was reminding me that I was still a legion commander and that I still had the lives of 60,000 people in my hands.

"Okay, let's go back."

Taking over my helmet from Jack, the moment I put on this cold metal, the responsibility of being the commander of the legion fell heavily on my shoulders again... I allowed myself to be sad occasionally, but I didn't dare to let myself feel deeply.

After all, there are tens of thousands of eyes staring at me.

Just think of it as a confession!

"Boss, I want to ask you something."

"kindness."

"How do you know that the second prince Kemp will kill his eldest brother?"

"For this second prince, imperial power is something he has been dreaming about for thirty years." I said slowly, "That kind of temptation is irresistible."

"But what if he doesn't do it?"

"If he doesn't do it," I said to Jack without thinking, "then we'll do it for him."

The legion headquarters is located in a dense forest. Jack and I had just walked to the edge of the forest when we saw Mafa and a group of officers waiting there.

"What are you doing?" I walked over with a smile and kicked a few officers' butts. "Why are you looking so grim?"

"Hello, sir!"

"Sit, sit, sit!" I greeted everyone, encouraging them with my calmness. This was the first time for most of my officers to stand on the ground, so it was understandable to be a little nervous.

"Our liaison officer, tell us!"

"That's right. I compared the intelligence we had with the reconnaissance team leader just now. They are almost the same." Mafa said, "The total number of troops coming from the fifth theater is 100,000. They cooperated with the Camp Empire garrison.

They suppressed them all the way along the transportation line...Unfortunately, after hearing about the bloody suppression, the mob who were still full of fighting spirit a few days ago have thrown away their weapons and went home to farm."

"If they want to restore the transportation line," I asked, "how long will it take them?"

"Ten days at most." Mafa answered me. "They can repair the bridge passes that were damaged by us in ten days at most. They have been doing this."

"Well, what detailed information does the reconnaissance team have about this team?" I looked at the leader of the reconnaissance team.

The leader of the reconnaissance team stood up. He was from the Sha tribe and had a very cautious character.

"Sir, they marched in a dense formation, and the coordination between teams and teams, infantry and cavalry was very good." He said, "After the main force left, the defense was taken over by Camp's army."

"Staff, regarding this situation." I looked at Carlos again and asked, "What do you think?"

"Sir, we can't bear their dense formation." Carlos said to me, "There are more people than us, and they are stuck with Camp's army. We have little chance of winning at this time."

Indeed, I only have 60,000 men on hand, and I have no cavalry, so I cannot fight head-on with an army of more than 100,000.

“Any news from the Camp royal family?”

"The new emperor is eager to consolidate his imperial power and is making a lot of vassals. Even his gatekeepers and grooms have become nobles!" Mafa said, "These days, the Camp Empire is full of nobles, and you can grab them with just a stretch of your hand.

Get a lot of it!"

"The original nobles did not cause trouble?" I asked, "Is it true that the new emperor has started to eradicate the old forces as we thought?"

"That's the strange thing. It seems like someone is pointing out this emperor, and he hasn't taken action against the former eldest prince's power!"

"This must be an order given to him by the Demon Alliance Military Headquarters!" I slapped my thigh, "Damn it! Someone actually saw through our plan!"

"Then...we," Carlos said, "should we wait?"

"We can't wait! We can't wait! We are fighting across the border, and the logistics are quite tight." I stood up and walked to the map, "If this is the case... yes, that's it!"

"Boss!" Jack's eyes lit up, "You have a solution!"

"It's still a very good idea!" I smiled and stared at the two transportation lines marked in red on the map. "Inform officers at the level of regiment commander or above... to come to me immediately!"

"yes!"

The meeting ended soon after, and a group of troops who had received the mission left the camp. The order to Geert was also issued. I personally handed this order to a major, the highest-ranking herald.

I am confident that the new emperor Kemp and the demon army will be in chaos for a while, because I have found their weaknesses. Last time I made their civilians chaotic, this time, I want their nobles to be chaotic!

Marfa's information is very detailed, and with the addition of the reconnaissance team, we know the actual status of each town on the transportation line, the number of garrison troops, the status of the officers, and even who the lord is.

I personally set out with a Guards Battalion, targeting a nearby town. I wanted to test this action model before large-scale operations, and once this model was passed, the commander of the fifth theater of the Demon Alliance Army would have to be replaced.

!

Ten miles away from the town, the soldiers and officers of a battalion changed into the uniforms of the Demon Alliance, and I also wore noble clothes. These things were captured in the last attack. Fortunately, I did not order them to be burned at that time.

"Sir!" The officer scouting in front ran over.

"Your Excellency... Your Majesty!" Seeing me staring at him, he immediately changed his words, "The town is relatively peaceful. The original lord lives in the west of the town and has a guard of about 300 people. The new lord lives near the square and has a guard.

A guard of about a hundred people."

"Is this the only number of people in the town?" I asked.

"Not only that, there are also 500 Camp troops who have gone to inspect nearby villages. They will not be able to come back today."

"Who brought this camp army?" I asked again.

"It's the new lord!"

"The new lord..." I nodded and said, "Okay, let's start with this person first!"

"You go into the town and find the new lord." I said to another officer, "Just say that I am also a newly ennobled noble and I am passing by here on my way to another place... I will stay in the town tonight!"

"yes!"

The officer left, and I turned back to look at the soldiers.

"Listen carefully, I don't need you to abide by any military discipline now." I rode slowly in the queue, "Be more arrogant! Come into the town and obey my orders, and make trouble for me!"

"Report, sir!" A wingman soldier asked me cautiously, "What's going on?"

"It's up to you, you can go to someone's house for a big meal, or you can spit on the old lord's house!" I smiled, "Otherwise...do you want a woman?"

"Report to the commander." The Yiren soldier blinked and stammered, "No... I don't want to!"

"I order you to think, not only to think, but also to do it!" I tapped his helmet with the riding crop, "To touch those women's faces and thighs, to humiliate them... Just don't do it seriously!"

"yes!"

"Remember this! You are now part of the Camp Royal Army, and your commander has just been made a noble! You just follow your commander to enjoy the good things!" I shouted to the soldiers around me, "You are the hooligans! You are the ones.

Bandit! Make your eyes red! Let’s drool some more! If you see something delicious, feed it to me! If you see something good, grab it for me! If you see a beautiful woman, touch it for me!”

"yes!"

"Brothers!" I turned the horse's head to face the town, "You're welcome - get on me!"

"Come on..."

The town is still peaceful, but a group of bandits with red eyes and drooling are already swarming towards it.

The new lord was already waiting for us at the town gate drawbridge with his people. According to what he said, he was just a small officer. He was made a baron because he was a subordinate of Emperor Camp and met him several times.

Of course we "belonged" to the same faction and exchanged greetings in a "friendly" manner.

"Sir, what is your title?" He looked at my clothes and said, "I have been visited by nobles almost every day these days."

"Hey! Brother, I'm not doing well." I shook my head and said, "Your Majesty made me a viscount and gave me a small fief."

"Please go this way." He said with envy, "Viscount is very good, unlike me who is just a baron and has to salute everyone I see!"

"It's nothing strange." I smiled and said, "If you are willing, His Majesty will make you a viscount immediately."

"Really?" He was shocked, "How could it be?"

I leaned over and said a few words in his ear.

"This...didn't His Majesty say that we should try our best to maintain relations with these people?" He looked at me a little doubtfully, "Now is the time of the war!"

"Your Excellency, this is the difference. Yes, the atmosphere is tense now during the war, and the civil strife among the untouchables in the empire has just subsided..." I said, "Think about it, can your Majesty say this clearly? It depends on
To be continued...
