third chapter

Demon Alliance Brook Empire, capital Foxburg, Demon Alliance Military Headquarters.

When Major General Hampton, the commander of the fifth theater, arrived under escort, the entire Foxborough was shocked! The two commanders of the same theater were defeated miserably in less than two months. This was simply unheard of in the Demon Alliance.

Unheard of! It’s also a great shame!

The boring life of the people has a few more topics. They like to get together in twos and threes and relive the misfortune of the two commanders over and over again. And raising the status of this matter to the second position among all topics, it ranks

After the gossip about a certain noble having an affair on Sunday.

The only people who knew the reason for the whole incident were the senior generals of the Demonic Alliance. Everyone from Marshal Verlaine on down was moved after receiving the report from the Camp Empire! Not only were the two transportation lines to be completely abandoned, but now the entire Camp

The empire is devastated, and there are less than ten noble lords left in total! If an empire does not have enough aristocrats to support the imperial power, then the empire is not far from being destroyed.

Judging from the current situation of the Camp Empire, it will take at least ten to twenty years to recover. It can be said with certainty that no one in the coalition forces expects it to be of any help in this war. Everyone is

Carefully think of ways to prevent the coalition forces from being dragged down by the Camp Empire.

Hundreds of thousands of civilians and nearly a hundred thousand troops and nobles were lost. The losses were so huge that even a bloodthirsty man like Marshal Verlaine couldn't help but be shocked. All of this was done without seeing a single enemy soldier.

It happened without a single pawn, and Marshal Verlaine still doesn’t know who the enemy is!

Although the coalition forces repeatedly requested confidentiality, this matter was so big that it spread bit by bit.

The news first spread among the nobles in a small area. The young officers in the military regarded the information as a treasure in exchange for the opportunity to get close to the ladies of the nobles. And those ladies used these military secrets as a way to show off their own assets at the dinner table.

Meanwhile, at the dance, they shook their feather fans and opened their mouths gracefully, conveying the news to the sisters in an understatement...

There were cooks at the table and waiters at the ball, and the story spread even more widely.

After the news was known to the civilians, everything about this enemy, such as their true identity, combat capabilities, food, clothing, housing, and transportation, etc., became a hot topic for them. Soon after, it finally occupied the first place on the public gossip list. People have been talking about it since they were young.

Accepting the Dark Lord's invincible education, other front lines are also victorious...but occasionally a piece of news of defeat will cheer them up from head to toe.

It’s so exciting! The invincible demon alliance finally has an opponent! Defeating this army will be even more exciting!

Because this unit is so unpredictable and has no name, ordinary people call it "Phantom Legion". The first thing that acquaintances do every day when they meet is to exchange information about the Phantom Legion. Any latest news about this unit is even a few

Every word will cause a stir.

There were also people betting on the true identity of the Phantom Legion. Not only were all twenty-odd legions of the Divine Alliance among the candidates, but there was also the option of forming a new legion. As a result, countless gamblers made crazy bets. Most of the bets were made.

Under the name of the newly formed legion of the God's Alliance Army, the total amount reaches one million gold coins. Although the several main battle legions are second, they still have a popularity of more than ten or two hundred thousand... However, under the name of the ninth legion of the God's Alliance Army, there are only

A mere seventeen copper coins, the result of a snake man who was drunk and illiterate.

Compared with the reaction of the people, the coalition military headquarters treated this matter with both seriousness and caution. Because the Dark Lord once said: One failure is normal, two failures can be forgiven, and if it fails a third time... then...

It means that many people will be unlucky!

The generals took action. They interrogated the first two commanders of the fifth theater overnight, trying to dig out even a little bit of useful information from them. In order to achieve this goal, they even did not hesitate to give the two commanders

They were sentenced to severe punishment...the lives of these two poor generals were not as good as those of the captured enemy spies.

Emperor Camp didn't fare well either. Although he was spanked without an inch of good skin on his butt, he still had to lie down on the throne to collect all information about the enemy and submit it to the military headquarters for investigation.

On the other hand, Major General Swice Hepburn set out for Camp again, leading his men to collect all clues about the enemy along the way in order to be more confident.

After Major General Svees Hepburn returned, the military decided to immediately convene an emergency meeting. In view of the serious situation in the Camp Empire, the meeting was personally presided over by Marshal Verlaine.

Early this morning, Major General Swice Hepburn stood outside the door of the conference room again.

As a major general, he was unable to enter the conference room before the meeting started. As for Swais Hepburn, he was unwilling to enter before the meeting started. He really couldn't face those "old perverts"

The obsessed look in his eyes... If it weren't for Swice's prominent position in the Bruck Empire, he would have been dragged away and forcibly molested by these "old perverts".

Swice Hepburn, he is the only nephew of the current emperor of the Brooke Empire, and he is also the most outstanding member of this generation of royal relatives. No matter from which aspect, the six princes are out of reach.

Swath Hepburn's father died when he was ten years old. He grew up with his mother. Maybe his personal temperament comes more from his mother. Because his father dedicated his life to save the current emperor, and because his abilities are indeed outstanding.

, so the current emperor trusts and values ​​this nephew very much, and has already trained him as the future first minister of the empire.

He was awarded the title of nobility at the age of sixteen, and now twenty-year-old Swiss Hepburn is already a third-class Duke. And he did not disappoint his uncle. No matter what position he held, he did it in an orderly manner, and he is now on the verge of becoming an important minister.

The final preparation stage is the hibernation period - because His Majesty the Emperor has six sons, there will definitely be a fight between these six sons when the old emperor becomes a lord, and all ministers in office will inevitably be implicated.

Swiss Hepburn stood quietly. The straight general uniform perfectly set off his tall figure. The military rank on his shoulders reflected the dazzling sunlight. He gently placed one hand on the hilt of the matching sword and stroked it with the other.

He was leaning on the fence, his blond hair blowing in the wind, and his lavender eyes showing a sense of peace... He was staring into the distance!

This is the most unmissable sight in the Brooke Empire and the first of the top ten sights in the Demon Alliance - Swiss Hepburn's Gaze!

Of course, most men call it the Audrey Hepburn gaze.

Almost everyone is fascinated by him. People with a flamboyant personality like to see the subtle movements before and after his gaze. They say it is beautiful. People who pay attention to connotation like to see him standing motionless. They say it is shocking. And

Those who have no pursuits, naturally they can't explain the reason, so they have no choice but to like everything about Swais Hepburn...

Frankly speaking, Major General Swice Hepburn is actually a very normal young man. He just speaks a little softer, his movements are more graceful, his thoughts are more attentive, and his eyes are charming... He likes loneliness more than anything else.

He likes liveliness, flowers more than swords, he likes to be with women more than men, he likes housework more than dealing with government affairs...

"Major General Swice Hepburn." Someone came over and said, "The meeting has begun. Marshal Verlaine will let you enter the venue."

"Okay, thank you." Siwes just nodded, turned and walked towards the door.

In order to avoid causing unpleasantness, he decided not to smile at random people. Last time, in this position, he smiled at an officer. As a result, the guy went around claiming that he had received a smile from Siwes, and was jealous of a large group of people.

The burning male and female nobles worked together to hunt him down - and as a result, he is still lying on the hospital bed humming.

The hard soles of the boots stepped on the marble floor, making a very clear "pop" sound.

"Hello, sirs!" Siwes stood at attention by the door and saluted a circle of senior generals sitting around the conference table.

"Please come here, Major General Swice." Marshal Verlaine nodded to him, "Tell everyone, what did you find in the Camp Empire this time?"

"Yes, sir!"

Major General Swice walked to the conference table, with his back facing the huge map of the Camp Empire.

"You can start."

"Yes, sir." Major General Swice picked up the long stick on one side, pointed at the map and began to explain.

"From my on-the-spot reconnaissance, we can infer that the enemy does exist. The general range of activities of this force is in this area, which only includes the middle sections of the two transportation lines." Major General Swice said, "We found something that is very surprising.

People are surprised.”

A general asked eagerly, "What is it?"

"These two large-scale riots were all their fault!" Major General Swice said sadly. "From all indications, it is the commander of this unit who took advantage of various instability within Camp.

factors, thus creating all this and allowing us to defeat ourselves.”

The muscles on Marshal Verlaine's face twitched, "You continue."

"The two riots have something in common. Before the riot, it was this group of enemy forces who started the trouble, but we were unable to catch them afterwards. And they have been in Campo for more than three months."

Major General Swice said, "This shows that their number is smaller than we originally expected!"

"Less? Are you saying that the Camp Empire and the Fifth Theater were defeated at the same time by a divine army of less than 100,000 people?" A general asked in surprise, "Major General, do you have evidence in your hand?"

"Unfortunately, I have." Major General Swice said, "I learned in detail that the enemy forces that appeared at the same time before the two riots - based on the structure of the Divine Alliance Army, there were about twenty regiments.

That is about 50,000 people. Judging from their entire plan, their ultimate goal is to make us chaotic. The more manpower invested before the riot, the greater the impact will be, and the area and time of the riot will be wider.

For a long time...driven by completing the combat objective, any commander will devote all his troops at this time."

"Your Excellency is a bit arbitrary in judging the size of the enemy's army based on this alone." A lieutenant general staff officer from the military department said.

"Then please think about it, sirs. During the second riot, faced with the chaotic coalition forces, why didn't they choose one to encircle and annihilate them?" Major General Swice's voice became louder, "At that time, not only

The armies of the various factions in the Camp Empire are in chaos, and even the troops in the fifth war zone are also in chaos. When several parties are mixed together and fighting on their own, isn't it a good opportunity for annihilation? Can the main force of the Demon Alliance Army be annihilated in a war zone?

The army also has the highest officer. Which commander of the divine coalition is willing to give up this opportunity? Of course not... That's because he doesn't have enough manpower! Not enough to eat any of the troops."

There was silence in the venue, so quiet that everyone could hear their own heartbeats. In the Demon Alliance Army, all officers have always accepted the military education of attacking as a creed. After everyone asked themselves... indeed no one was willing to give up.

This opportunity, if he is still a normal person.

"Fifty thousand...fifty thousand..." After a long time, Marshal Verlaine broke the silence with a hoarse voice, "The dignified fifth theater of the coalition...the dignified Camp Empire was actually beaten by 50,000 people without any chance of fighting back.

The power... they have fallen, to the point where they are not even as good as the Divine Alliance... I actually have such an embarrassing day, even if there are good news from other fronts... How can I face the Dark Lord?"

"Come here!" Marshal Verlaine raised his fist and hit the table hard!

"arrive!"

"Send me an order." Marshal Verlaine said word for word, "The two former commanders of the Fifth Theater Zone must be put to death on the spot!"

"yes!"

"Listen to me. You must keep what Major General Swice said in mind, especially the number of enemy troops, and remember it firmly!" Marshal Verlaine's sharp eyes swept across everyone present, "In all the

According to written records, whether it is a battle plan, a report or a meeting note... the number of the enemy army should be 150,000! 150,000! It can only be more, not less!"

"yes!"

No one dares to express any opinion on this order, whether it is opposition or approval, it is best not to provoke this crazy old man at this time.

"Please continue." Marshal Verlaine sat down slumped and waved his hand to Major General Swice, "What is their combat effectiveness?"

"In terms of combat, their most outstanding feature is that they are fast and flexible, and can kill with one blow." Major General Swice said, "During the riot, many troops were crowded together, and they moved freely among them without allowing us to capture a single prisoner.

.Although it is harassment, it is very successful in terms of tactical use. And their planned combat goals are all accomplished in one go, and they are never sloppy."

"As for you personally," Marshal Verlaine asked, "do you have any suggestions?"

"Yes, sir, I don't think our troops can outrun them." Major General Swice thought for a while, "To deal with such a mobile army, it is best to first limit their space for movement, and then cut off their retreat.

, forcing them to come out and fight us head-on."

"What about their identities?"

"According to the analysis of our Intelligence Division, they are most likely a new legion secretly formed by the Divine Alliance. This can be seen from their equipment and logistics." Major General Swice, who is the deputy director of the Intelligence Division, said, "

The weapons and armor used by their soldiers are better than those used by our officers, and their logistics support is also complete. It has been more than three months since they entered the Camp Empire, and we have not received a single report about them looking for food."

"anything else?"

"More than twenty legions of the Divine Alliance are fighting with us, and even some famous generals are not absent. The commanders of this army are very experienced, and the soldiers have extremely high fighting spirit... These cannot be trained in one or two years.

from."

"What got them in?"

"I have a report in my hand from the Camp Empire. They didn't pay attention to this before." Major General Swice said, "Since three months ago, patrol warships in the Camp Empire have disappeared one after another.

Nine warships are already missing."

"Three months ago!" Marshal Verlaine's eyes widened, "Why didn't they tell me earlier?"

Major General Swice could not answer. In fact, everyone knew the reason.

"I think this bastard hasn't been whipped enough!" Marshal Verlaine said, "I will let him enjoy it again!"

The so-called "bastard" who was whipped should probably belong to the current emperor of the Camp Empire. As soon as Marshal Verlaine said this, the emperor had to mourn his own butt again...

"Sea transportation and supply." Marshal Verlaine looked at the large map on the wall, "It can ensure both quantity and speed... It is indeed a good method."

"Yes." A lieutenant general said, "The supplies for fifty thousand troops require a hundred ordinary transport ships, plus escort warships... This time the Divine Alliance has spent a lot of money!"

"Last point." Marshal Verlaine looked at Major General Swice again, "What do you think about the commander of this force?"

"About this commander..." This was the first time Major General Swice stuttered today. "He only has a vague shadow in my mind."

"Judging from his use of tactics, he should be over fifty years old and have received strict military education. Although the tactics he uses are very simple and direct, he can still grasp the key points when grasping the overall situation... He

His plan was also very bold and absurd, but it was implemented smoothly. This shows that his subordinates are convinced of him. Such prestige and experience are not something that a young general can possess."

"anything else?"

"He should be a person with a wide range of interests, good at thinking, and well-versed in people's ways." Major General Swice continued, "During the two riots, he took advantage of everyone in the Camp Empire, from the emperor to the civilians, no one

His reaction is not within his calculations. He can judge other people's psychology quite accurately - this is his greatest strength."

"Well..." Marshal Verlaine said, "But we won't be wrong."

"Yes, sir." Major General Swice said, "I suggest that the Intelligence Department should investigate all the nobles in the Divine Alliance one by one based on the above conditions. This will be good for our next action!"

"Approved!" Marshal Verlaine nodded in agreement, "Order all our personnel in the Divine Alliance to do their best to track down this person. Also, the staff department immediately drafted an application to let the Dark Demon Palace lurk three of them in the Divine Alliance.

The great devil will awaken."

"yes!"

"Now," Marshal Verlaine said, "let's discuss a very practical issue - who should be sent to lead the fifth theater and who should be sent to defeat this enemy!" (To be continued)
