Chapter 54: Strategic Deception

The magnificent conference hall is illuminated by gorgeous lighting as if it were the polar day.

In the conference hall of the University of Notau, a huge round table was set around the table where all the high-ranking leaders of the military, political, and economic circles of the Belmar Empire were seated.

On the wall in front of the table, there is a huge strategic map, on which you can see the military forces of almost all the Arad continents.

I saw that the northern, eastern, and southern parts of the Belmar Empire in the middle were all pointed with bright red arrows, indicating its strong military threat.

"Ladies and gentlemen", Yang Jian glanced at the venue, "Next, I will introduce the surrounding situation first."

He cleared his throat, and then the Sword of Honor of the Royal Knights in his hand pointed at the 10,000-year-old snow-capped mountain region in the north.

"In recent years, the Bantu people in the north have been preparing to invade the south."

"Now that our empire is suffering from such a great calamity, if there is a change, the northern defense line will bear the brunt."

Yang Jian's face was serious, and he looked at a general in the banquet with blazing eyes.

"Marshal Vasilevsky, what do you have to do".

A white-bearded general stood up straight, with a look of non-anger and self-sufficiency on his face.

"Lao Yu was ordered to guard the northern border for more than 30 years, so that the northern foreigners did not dare to go south."

"Now that there are endogenous changes, old decay should take the lead."

"The gravity-free airship produced by the Imperial Alchemy Guild is now rationed in place."

"It is possible to carry out strategic bombing of its tribes in wartime, and it can also maintain deterrence in peacetime."

"As far as I can see, the north is not a cause for concern." Vasilevsky stroked his beard.

Yang Jian nodded, his gaze turning to the other general.

"General Su Yu, what do you think of the threat from the Southern Dark Elf Kingdom?"

I saw a middle-aged man standing up unhurriedly, with a quiet smile on his face, as if he was confident.

"Our latest Krupp Heavy Magic Cannon, which has a maximum range three times that of the Dark Elf Kingdom Archers."

"Once the war starts, the Dark Elf archers of the Elwin Line will be greatly suppressed."

Su Yu's eyes flickered, staring at Yang Jian.

Don't worry! Yang Jian understood what he meant.

"Synthesize the meaning of several generals", Yang Jian summed up.

"The sorrows of both the north and the south can be dissolved".

"However", Yang Jian paused.

"The military threat from the Eastern Delos Empire is the greatest," he took a deep breath.

Everyone in the audience tensed their nerves and looked at each other.

The atmosphere began to become oppressive, and everyone was thinking about such a question.

What if we solve the internal worries when the Delos Empire invades from the east.

Everyone began to talk about it, and the venue was noisy.

Yang Jian was silent, his eyes were always staring at the big arrow in the eastern direction, as if he was thoughtful.

The vivid red was as dazzling as blood at the moment.

"Yang Jian, I want to hear your opinion", at this time, a clear and solemn female voice sounded, and everyone's attention was immediately attracted, and they were suddenly silent.

Queen Skadi, who was sitting on the upper seat, looked at Yang Jian expectantly.

Yang Jian's bloodshot eyes flashed with a fine light, and he turned his head.

"Wechen thinks that the Northeast Frontier Army should be set up to deal with possible border crises."

He held up a hand and pointed to one part of the map.

A dense jungle where the elves are home to the Gran Forest.

"An ambush can be set up here."

Looking at everyone who was full of anticipation, Yang Jian continued.

"Draw troops from the north and south, and secretly camp in the Gran Forest, on the one hand, to deal with the north and east."

Then he pointed his sword in the eastern direction.

"Once the Delos Empire invades with heavy troops, our army first feigns resistance, but in fact retreats."

"When his first army goes deeper, the supply of baggage supplies will not be available", Yang Jian's eyes lit up.

"The Northeast Army stationed in the Gran Forest took the opportunity to make a sneak attack, cut it off, divide and surround it, and then annihilate it!"

"When there is no time for its civil strife, our civil strife will be resolved first."
