Chapter 262: One Man's War

March 22, 5 a.m

"This is already the forty-third! What the hell are the guards doing?! ”

"We also hired a lot of mercenaries, but the other party's traces are too weird! A minute ago it was on the west side of the street, but a minute later someone died at his hands on the east side."

"No kidding! Just an assassin! Could it be that we can still be distressed for him?! ”

"That's easy! It's only been two or three days since the first murder that forty-three have died, and none of them have missed, it's a nightmare! "There is a mysterious cloud of fear hanging over the royal capital of Abion, not only because of the successful landing of the combined army of Trest and the Gemaria army on the territory of Abiong in the early hours of yesterday morning, but also because of the continuous murders that are currently taking place in various parts of the royal capital, the murderers are only staring at the soldiers above the rank of squadron leader, and they have lost twenty-seven squadron leaders, three group leaders, twelve mercenaries, and even a deputy captain, If this continues, I am afraid that their command structure will be completely chaotic before they even meet with the Combine forces

"Then what do you mean, Your Highness the Holy Emperor?" Finally, someone pointed the finger at Cromwell, the emperor of the newborn Abion

"There's nothing to worry about," Cromwell said, still mildly, "whether it's the Combine or the killer who is wreaking havoc on our land, they're going to lose sooner or later."

"But what we need is concrete action and the right approach!" General Hawkins, who actually held command of Abiong's entire army, finally couldn't help but say loudly: "Your recent command policy has been obviously wrong, and all the opportunities that could have prevented the Combine from landing have been missed because of this!" No matter how much we replenish the army, we only have less than 40,000 soldiers left."

"It's not the same as before," Cromwell smiled

"But more than fifteen thousand of them are new recruits, and it will be difficult for our remaining fleet to organize an effective counterattack" Hawkins took a deep breath, "Please understand that now is not the time for us to look to the future"

"It's okay, I understand your current mood, General" Cromwell smiled and nodded, "Since we can't win in the airspace anymore, then we can just win it back in the land battle?" ”

"Where will the enemy be next?" Cromwell asked, turning his eyes to the general of the General of Staff

"We've deduced that this is likely to be the next place for the enemy to attack," said the general of the General Staff, who immediately stood up and tapped his wand on a point on the map, "It's the city of Sensgoda."

"It's a place where we can deal a heavy blow to our army," Cromwell nodded, "Then we should"

"Immediately transfer all the new forces of the royal capital there, and at the same time immediately set up a formation to welcome the arrival of the enemy army," Hawkins said with a nod of approval from many people

"No, the main force can't be transferred out of the royal capital yet," Cromwell shook his head and refused

"Could it be that we still want that killer to continue to slaughter!" Hawkins said angrily: "Besides, once the city of Sansgoda is taken, we will be equivalent to severing the connection with the more than forty cities around the royal capital, and then we will most likely fall into the predicament of the cage city war!" ”

Note: Cage city warfare is to hoard all the food and soldiers around the city in a city to prepare for the battle plan of holding the lonely city, which is often called "strong walls and clear fields"

"It doesn't matter if the city of Sensgoda is ceded to the enemy"

"Do you mean to offer your resources and hands to the enemy? The enemy will definitely replenish their rations in the metropolis, and they will probably be able to recharge their batteries there! ”

"I'm not going to give them rations"

"How?"

"Confiscate all the food of the residents."

"This"

"In this way, the enemy army will definitely distribute food to the inhabitants, they are originally fighting from a long distance, and once the food cannot keep up, they can only obediently go home, this is done to demoralize the enemy, and at the same time can slow down the enemy's pace" It is hard to imagine that such a cold strategy came from the mouth of a man who was still a priest, but it is true, but once it is done

"Are you going to turn all the people of a metropolis into enemies? In doing so, even if we win, I am afraid that we will face endless internal troubles."

(Just like you did at the beginning, sooner or later, someone will involve this country in the situation of rebellion) Hawkins did not dare to say this sentence in his heart

"Didn't I already send the subhuman troops there first?" Cromwell smiled, "Just put the blame on those brainless guys."

"Yes, but the killer thing, please fix it, there are a lot of commanders who are worried about it now," Hawkins asked the next topic

"Don't let you escape, if you dare to escape, all the soldiers will be executed" Cromwell said indifferently, "At the same time, I will send someone to deal with this matter, I just have a mercenary with a belly of fire"

"Then this meeting is"

"Wait, I still need to drop a poison in the waterways of Sensgoda City" Cromwell dropped another bombshell

"What!" Almost all the generals and ministers couldn't help but get up and exclaim, "How can this be done!" This is a violation of the laws of war."

"The laws of war from hundreds of years ago will no longer be used now, all sit down, O Gu general, don't you want victory?" Cromwell said indifferently

"There is no way to refute it, so they can only choose to sit down

"Then Lone will go outside to motivate the loyal soldiers, and the generals will begin to discuss the specific steps," Cromwell pushed away his chair and left the hall directly, "Don't let Lone down."

"Then let's start deliberating," Hawkins sighed, "everything is for the country."

An hour later

It was a fanatical audience, and Cromwell possessed an unrivaled skill of deception, and the soldiers who could not normally meet his face revered him as if they had been brainwashed by religion, and he already had the necessary requirements to be an emperor

But at this moment, the woman who had just been in the conference room in the face of the defeat and made bold remarks in front of the soldiers was sitting on the bench with his head crossed, and Sheffield, who was his secretary, looked down at him condescendingly

"Well done, Master Priest," Sheffield began

"Boom!" Cromwell, as she had known him in the past, tumbled from his chair and fell to the ground as if to surrender to her, and Cromwell's head never dared to lift himself

Chong hid from the ceiling and watched the qiē, a tile that had been replaced by a thick one-sided glass (only one side could see the other direction), which he had made a few days before he had been here, so that he could perfectly monitor the targets in the room

This time he came to the palace purely by chance, he inadvertently moved to the gate of the palace after using the eight mirrors to continuously displace, so he came in to take a look, the original intention was to try to see if he could find out some information, but he didn't expect the defense in the palace to be unexpectedly lax, he walked all the way to the king's bedroom directly, so he had an extremely bold action

-- Directly kill Cromwell, the king of the newborn Abion

(But he doesn't look like a king at all) Is he really a state of majesty? But why do you think he's more like a pathetic puppet?

Chong didn't know what was going on below, as he couldn't hear the sound below, and there seemed to be something in the room interfering with his hearing

Cromwell seems to have given something to his secretary, so it looks like it should be some kind of treasure, right?

“?” His secretary held up the ring on his hand and pointed it directly at the ceiling, which seemed to be where he was

“!” His vision blurred for a moment, and a dizzy feeling of dizziness was shaking in his mind, and Chong immediately realized that the other party had discovered him

"Boom!" There was a loud thud above Cromwell's head, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps ringing in his ears

"How, what's going on!" Cromwell panicked

"It's interesting, you dare to invade here directly" Sheffield put away the ring in his hand, "Our Royal Highness, you were almost about to have your head taken from your neck just now"

"W-what!" Cromwell immediately hid under his chair: "Hurry up and call the guards in to keep me safe!" ”

"Let them come in and see your jokes?" Sheffield said coldly, "What is there to be afraid of, that Excellency has long expected this, now you are here alone to calm down, he will not dare to come here again"

"Yes"

"Listen, I'm going to get busy now, if you don't want to die, just shut up, and don't forget who gave you your rights!" Sheffield walked out of the room, "I'll help you kill him, because the Lord is afraid of him too"

"Since you're here, don't think about leaving easily," Sheffield coldly hooked the corners of his mouth, "A kid from an Asian island country, I have to wipe you out here for Your Excellency"

"Scrivener!" Sheffield called the clerk, who was sitting in the next room writing orders, "His Majesty the King has ordered"

"Immediately inform the 10,000 defenders in the royal capital, and now immediately want the mercenaries who have killed our officers in the past few days! He's already wounded! It doesn't matter if you tear down all the houses! His traces must be found! ”

"Whoever has advanced technology can have my lord alone, and whoever knows that there is zài here can die," Sheffield disappeared into the palace after the clerk hurriedly left with the order

"It's all for Harginia!"
