chapter Five

In the southwest of the Sbia Empire, the coast and the inland border. A series of towering mountains separates the inland and the coastline, and has successfully made this area sparsely populated. The mountain is a high mountain, extremely steep, and there is no pass connecting the inside and outside.

In addition, there are primeval dense forests on both sides of the mountain, so except for the early wandering aliens, no one would be hot-headed enough to settle here.

However, this kind of place is often favored by the Sibia military. Regardless of the small output, it is no problem to hide at least one or two rare soldiers as a strategic depth. Therefore, the military has been quite effective in operating it over the years.

This place called the "Swamp War Zone" has a total of three permanent camps, a legion-level headquarters, dozens of tunnels for hiding troops, and a good communication system - among other things, as the center of the entire system, a super-large legion

The headquarters can fully meet the command needs of the entire war zone. It has the function of hiding troops and supplies, and it is all hidden deep inside the mountain. The towering green mountains are covered with green shade, making it highly concealable.

But neither the planners nor the builders would have imagined that it would not be the military who used this place for the first time to launch a campaign.

A string of screams penetrated the clouds and mist, echoing in the valley. After a while, a moss stone wall about a hundred arms long fell down like a suspension bridge, turning into a platform across the clouds and mist. Several soldiers ran out and stood on the platform.

Signal flags were waved at both ends. After a while, the griffins hovering in the air adjusted their positions one after another and landed one after another. After unloading the cargo, they immediately took off from the other end of the platform, because behind them, there were already two

The team members are stranded in the waiting area.

There are a total of six such platforms in the two adjacent peaks. There are actually flying troops taking off and landing day and night. The busy and tense atmosphere makes the officers in it frown, no matter where they are.

He walked so fast that he had no time to greet the distinguished officers he passed by, so he could only give a simple salute.

The person to whom the officers were apologizing was Cohen Keda, who was wearing a black cloak. Although there was no decoration at all, in the sea of ​​uniforms and military ranks, casual clothing itself was a supreme privilege... Follow

Although the two people behind Cohen are not pure soldiers, they are both wearing uniforms that are closely related to military uniforms. The white of the Military Law Department and the black of the Liaison Department contrast with each other very clearly.

Accompanied by Jack and Marfa, Cohen came to the observation platform, which has both internal and external surveillance functions. He first looked at the operations halls on the upper and lower floors inside, and then looked at the flying troops arriving one after another outside.

Said: "It's completely in a wartime state. It seems that someone has decided to start a big war."

"When faced with this kind of opportunity, no one would want to do something big. I'm just afraid that he is sick now." Of course, only Mafa, who is in charge of the liaison department, can say this. He is very upset about Nizam taking over a large number of his subordinates.

Yu Huai.

Cohen understood the psychology of this brother, so he thought about it for a moment and said: "Let's do this, Mafa, you go back to the city to prepare for the alliance. Leave the affairs here to Jack. I believe that with Jack's supervision, Nizam will not be able to

Do something that puts the lives of your men in vain."

"This..." After hesitating for a moment, the Blood Lord finally nodded: "It's not that I don't support this, but he has never done it. Jack, watch out for Nizam and don't fall ill with him!"

"Okay, okay!" Jack knew he couldn't shirk it, so he nodded repeatedly: "Do you think I look like the kind of person who enjoys big things for fun?"

"You look like this!" Unexpectedly, Mafa didn't give any face to Jack and directly exposed Jack. After that, Mafa looked at Cohen: "I'm going back to the city, what about you, boss?"

"Anyway, I don't have anything to do here, so I can use this time to get something." Cohen patted the sword hanging on his waist with his hand.

Xiaoxiao said: "These portable swords are obviously no longer suitable for me to use."

Mafa nodded thoughtfully and left.

Jack looked at his leaving back and complained in a low voice unwillingly: "Boss, do you think I really look like that kind of person?"

"Believe me, you don't want to know the answer." Cohen patted Jack on the shoulder: "Keep an eye on Nizam, but don't interfere easily."

After being beaten in different ways by Cohen and Marfa, Jack's anger almost filled his chest. As soon as Cohen left, he rolled up his sleeves and went to find trouble with someone. The justice was very angry, and his face was full of anger.

It’s a kind smile, showing no more than eight teeth, very warm and friendly, very boy-next-door, but there is a saying in the Military Justice Department that this look is called “sunshine storm”!

Nizam is easy to find, because his slightly hoarse voice marks his coordinates all the time, and he is yelling in the passage next to the war room: "Answer me - why is the complete book of Xuncia not there? This book is written by me.

Leave it to you to collect!”

Jack walked to the door and looked around, and found that Nizam was holding an apprentice priest in his hand, swinging back and forth.

Nizam narrowed his eyes until there was only a thin slit, and dark green blood vessels burst out on his forehead. He had frightened the apprentice priest in his hand half to death, and he could not speak smoothly: "I...I...I

I don’t know… I thought you would never use this book again…”

"Don't know how to use it? Don't know how to use it?" Nizam first gave the apprentice priest a slap in the face, both positive and negative, and then sprayed him with a mouthful of thick phlegm: "I'll give you one more day to find this book for me!

Otherwise, I will cut off your little priest that has not been used yet and stuff it into your asshole that has no chance to be used either!"

The sinister words coupled with the sinister expression, let alone the apprentice priest, even Jack who was standing behind him shuddered - based on the chancellor's understanding of the temple priest, the threat mentioned by Nzan was definitely possible

become reality.

But Nizam obviously hadn't finished speaking yet. He dropped the person in his hand and turned to look at several officers: "Why is the Book of Revelation of Titiyan Tower a broken copy?"

"This... there is only this version in the Royal Library, and the director himself has confirmed the news." Several officers looked at each other, because Nizam was not their direct superior, so in their hearts, they were not too afraid of the priest.

.

"Call me sir! I don't care who said this is the only version. What I want is the full version!" The dignity of the superior can be universal, but Nizam is still a wise and capable superior, so he immediately put aside the officer's excuse.

He called back: "I'll give you five days, no matter whether you steal, rob or lie! If you still can't get it, everyone will be expelled from the military and all medals will be recovered!"

There are dozens of military laws and hundreds of popular punishment methods in the army, but even high-ranking generals would not say such things, because expulsion from the military and withdrawal of medals are more serious than beheading... So all the officers felt aggrieved.

They all looked at the military judge behind Nizan. Now, this "stainless" Excellency is much friendlier than this damn priest!

Nizam noticed the strange look in everyone's eyes, turned around and saw Jack, and started to stare at him with a fierce look. The reason was self-evident.

Although Jack was still smiling in the middle, the anger in his heart had gradually subsided. After a long time, with everyone's expectant eyes on him, he took out a notebook, scratched it with a drawing pen a few times, and then said to the officers.

: "Five days, I have already written it down."

After a brief silence, the officers rushed out of the door with a "crash". Just kidding, the chief military judge supported Nizam. If everyone didn't fight hard, it would really be over!

"Stop!" the military judge stopped the officer, then walked to Nizam and coughed twice. Seeing that Nizam didn't understand yet, he glanced at him again and said in a low voice: "That's not what you do, sir!

"

Observing words and expressions is an essential talent for a priest, as is the ability to draw inferences from one instance to another. Nizam finally came to his senses and said to the officers with a gloomy face: "Have you ever looked for the warehouse in the great library? If you can't find it again, ask Tiv...

The same goes for Lorenzo... If he still refuses to hand it over, you will kidnap his son!"

"Reporting to the commander..." an officer reminded in a low voice: "Tiff Lorenzo is the military discipline supervisor...the general supervisor."

"Cohen is still the emperor! Steve Lorenzo is not the same as him scolding him!" After being reminded by others, Nizam finally looked like a commander: "Just do it, I will take responsibility if anything happens!"

With the commander's promise, of course the officers would not hesitate any longer and ran out like a gust of wind. It would take at least two days to get to the Holy Capital from here, and their time was very tight.

"How shameless." Jack spat unceremoniously: "Don't drag me down next time."

"Then don't follow me." Nizam was now a patient who had not taken any medicine and was extremely unkind to others. He walked towards the war room with a flick of his sleeves.

Jack thought for a while, and finally followed him shaking his head.

At this time, even if he is a fool, he understands how heavy his burden is, because fundamentally speaking, Nizam is not a competent commander, and his command style is incompatible with the army. Under such circumstances, he can now

The only person who could assist him could only be someone like Jack, who was in charge of both the military and government, and was familiar with both sides.

Just a few steps away, Nizam's loud voice started roaring in the war room again. He was like a drop of water falling into the oil pan. As soon as Jack entered the sealed door, the rolling sound waves hit him head-on, and so did he.

For those who grew up during the war, as soon as they are exposed to such an environment, their whole body will immediately enter a state of excitement - the smile on their face will disappear and be replaced by a rare seriousness.

In terms of ambition, Nizam is not inferior to anyone. This can be seen from his combat plan. Not to mention anything else, there are hundreds of preparation steps, which are densely written on a wall. The combat staff

After all the busy work, he did not dare to take it lightly. But on the other hand, Nizam was obviously not mentally prepared for this scene. The army's style was meticulous, tough and iron-blooded, not simple madness. It was useless to threaten people by slamming the table, so

When faced with a massive amount of information, Nizam was a little overwhelmed.

"...I am the deputy commander-in-chief of the combat plan." Jack stood over and stood side by side with Nizan: "Now I propose to establish a combat plan execution department. Its function is to command and coordinate combat details, filter information, and directly report to Nizan and me.

Commander-in-Chief Zan is in charge...General information only needs to be reported. The comprehensive progress will be reported twice every hour. Commander-in-Chief Nizan and I will be upstairs all the time. Commander-in-Chief, what do you think?"

"Of course I... agree!" Nizam was eager for someone to come to the rescue, so he nodded immediately.

Seeing that he agreed, Jack immediately named six senior staff officers and three legion commanders to take charge. He quietly pulled Nizam and walked into the upstairs compartment.

"The army has their own way of doing things. As a commander, you just need to grasp the overall situation." Jack saw that Nizam was always paying attention to the big sand table below. He couldn't help laughing and said: "Don't look at it. Peeping like you can only pass on information."

It's because of your distrust of them and the haste of you as the person in charge - sit down, sir, and be as still as a mountain."

"I really..." Nizam finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I feel that I have to personally supervise everything before it can be accomplished."

"You command the overall situation, but you have to stay away from the overall situation and observe the enemy and ourselves with an objective perspective... These are Cohen's command secrets. Don't worry, we have all seen your plan, and the staff department has also deduced it. There is nothing fatal about it.

loopholes." Jack pulled Nizan to sit down at the conference table and asked a few questions: "Instead of worrying about the military's ability to execute, you should consider some fundamental issues in your plan."

"What's the problem?" Nizam raised his head, his eyes like daggers: "You question my plan?"

"No, I'm just a little confused." Jack, who was trained under Cohen, was indifferent to the priest's gaze: "You do these ordinary things, it seems that you can't raise Cohen's status to the level of the God King and the Demon King, right?

"

"How can I explain this kind of thing to you?" Nizan thought for a while, with a hint of pride in his tone: "From the perspective of the recipient, Cohen is not a creature that appeared out of nowhere. Those so-called things that are beyond human control

, it’s completely unrealistic to put it on him!”

"Reality? Isn't the core of belief the more illusory and mysterious, the better?"

"You think too simply! There is no shortage of illusory and mysterious beliefs on the Bis continent. At least there are gods and demons! Cohen is the third one, and you still want to compete with them in illusory and mysterious beliefs? This is like trying an egg against a stone.

What's the difference?" Nizan said with a cold face: "Gods and demons can only be accepted by people from high to low, from virtual to real. Cohen must do the opposite to have hope! Affinity, this is Cohen's 'person'

The biggest advantage, we must seize this advantage and amplify it infinitely!”

"You mean from low to high, from real to virtual? But I don't see anything magical in your plan."

"Although I'm not as good as you in commanding soldiers, you don't have to worry about this plan, and you can see it right away." Nizam looked at a map on the table and twitched the corner of his mouth: "My method, which one of you

I can’t think of it…even the gods and demons can’t think of it!”

"What if someone has thought of it?" Jack's attitude was very gentle, but he could not hide the arrogance in his words: "Never underestimate other people's minds."

"Have you thought of it?" The priest smiled a little heartlessly: "Even if someone has thought of it, they can't stop it!"

"Sir!" A staff officer pushed open the door and came in: "The execution department reported that the conditions for launching the combat plan have been met!"

Jack nodded to the officer and looked at Nizam with an emotionless look.

Nizam clenched his fists, and after a moment of silence, he stood up at Jack's reminder, turned around, and gave an awkward command: "Activate as planned!"

"Yes!" The officer gave a concise and powerful military salute, turned around and walked to the passage, shouting in a loud and firm voice: "Order - initial combat plan - launch now!"

"Follow the order—activate!" Dozens of staff officers in the war room responded in unison, and the loud sound echoed back and forth between the four walls. Instantly, the originally busy and tense atmosphere became dull and depressing, and personnel from various departments rushed back and forth quickly.

It also turned into running quickly! (To be continued)
