“…… It's just too deceitful! ”

In the eastern position of the Coalition Army of the Order of Fort Gerald, in the camp of the Radiant Empire Expeditionary Force, Generalissimo Orem, as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army, was furious.

"Why should we be bait, and the credit for sneaking up on the enemy's own camp should be given to the Federation bastards? It's not fair! ”

In the high-level discussion that has just ended, the top brass of the Order Coalition discussed and assigned the tasks that the various units of the Coalition would need to share in the event of a decisive battle with the Chaos Side in a few days. The overall plan is simple, some people act as bait to attract the main forces of Chaos on the frontal battlefield, while the other part of the army goes around the rear and sneaks up on the rear of the Chaos Legion. In the face of those Chaos Legions, whose combat methods basically have no tactical strategy to speak of, no matter how complex the strategy design is, it is just a flattering thing for the blind to see, but this simple and crude primary tactic can often obtain the most efficient results.

As the president of the Imperial Army, Olem did not have any objections to the overall strategic arrangement of this decisive battle, but what made him angry was the specific division of labor among the various departments of the coalition army.

The Coalition of Order on the main battlefield of Fort Gerald is mainly composed of five parts, the expeditionary corps from the Federation and the Empire, the Divine Guard of the Cult of Creation from the Holy City of Aryavar, the elven army from the Elven Forest that merged with the original Elven Advance Army of the Northern Continent, and the remnants of the Northern Continent Order who served as the fuse of this great war. Among them, after the main forces of the order coalition army arrived from the two southeastern continents, the remnants of the order who were weak in combat strength had basically retreated to the second line and were mainly responsible for logistics construction, and the real combat strength was essentially the front four armies.

In this decisive battle, it was the Imperial Expeditionary Force and the Divine Guard that attracted the Chaos Legion head-on, while the Federation Expeditionary Force and the Elven Legion were the ones who attacked behind enemy lines. Obviously, fools know that frontal bait is a thankless task, and most of the real opportunities to earn credit will be in the hands of the unit responsible for the sneak attack. However, if it is simply a matter of credit distribution, Olem is not so narrow-minded, what really makes him as angry as he is now is because it is clear that the Imperial Expeditionary Force shares the dirty work of serving as a frontal bait, and the Federation, as the sworn enemy of the Empire, was actually assigned to the sneak attack side that can easily earn military merits.

Although the Empire and the Federation had made peace with the mediation of a group of neutral Guardian Forces of Order before the Alliance of Order was formed and launched a counteroffensive against the Northern Continent, this did not mean that the old feud that had accumulated between the two sides for nearly a hundred years had just disappeared. What could be more irritating in this world than seeing the enemy profit from it when you are at a loss.

What made Olem even more angry was that although he was annoyed by this division of labor, and even raised a counter-argument on the spot in the previous high-level discussion, in the end he was not able to change the outcome of this division of labor. The Empire and the Federation are the top Terran forces that dominate the Eastern Continent and the Southern Continent respectively, and in terms of the area of the territory they rule and the number of people, the Goddess of Creation Sect and the Elves are far inferior to them, but in terms of high-level combat power and warfare against Chaos, the Goddess of Creation Sect and the Elves have more power to speak than the Empire and the Federation. The Empire was not the one in charge of the strategy of the campaign, and the top brass of the Federation fanned the flames, and in the end, Olem's protest was dismissed, and the Empire had to accept the role of bait.

"It's them uniting to suppress the Empire!"

"That's it! Marshal, since the Alliance of Order is so unfair, we don't need to obediently listen to their dispatch to let the soldiers give their lives to the Federalists for nothing! ”

In the Imperial military tent, Orem's officers are also clamoring and shouting, this is the Imperial Expeditionary Force's own military tent, after listening to Orem explain the unfair treatment of the Imperial Expeditionary Force by the alliance's high-level leaders in the previous high-level discussion, the officers of the empire are also as indignant as Orem at the moment, and even some more radical people directly proposed to withdraw from the alliance.

However, not everyone was like this, in the corner of the military tent, several young people dressed completely different from the Imperial Legion stayed there quietly, watching the excitement in the tent with cold eyes, these people were Mu Yun and several high-level players in Mu Yun and Mu Tianxia.

As early as the invasion of the Northland Beast Spirit in the main story of the 60-level empire, because he actively led the guild to participate in the fight against the Northland Beast Spirit army, Mu Yun received an additional promotion in the empire as an adventurer and had the official status in the imperial military system. Time has passed, and now Mu Yun has accumulated a long time of killing monsters and some special tasks, and his rank in the imperial military can be regarded as an upper-middle level even in the current tent of the expeditionary force, and several of his die-hard high-ranking officials in the Mu Tianxia Guild have also obtained official military ranks, at least in terms of identity, they are already qualified to participate in such officer meetings.

"Did this trigger something?"

Looking at the Imperial officers in front of him who were enraged by the unfair battle arrangement, a Mu Yun next to Mu Yun couldn't help but frown.

"It doesn't seem to be good, now the main plot is that the various races of the Order Alliance fight against Chaos together, if the Imperial Expeditionary Force really intends to leave the battlefield here, then it is definitely the Empire that suffers in the end."

"What are you afraid of, even if the Imperial Expeditionary Force withdraws, it doesn't mean that we, the players, will also withdraw, although we belong to the imperial forces, but the empire can't control us adventurers."

The other player spoke, not looking very concerned.

"I'm not worried about the empire, I'm thinking that if this really triggers some plot, should we get involved in time to do something, if we can finally trigger a plot mission like turning the tide, then it feels like even if it's not the main story, at least it's a pretty weighty side line, and the mission rewards will definitely not be less."

After speaking, the player who opened his mouth and the other players in Mu Tianxia all set their eyes on Mu Yun, obviously, in terms of the ability to identify the plot trigger mission, no one is stronger than the leader in front of them who can always lead them to discover all kinds of details in the game that ordinary people can't even notice and find the clues of the mission.

Seeing that these well-known masters of the Mu Tianxia Guild all set their eyes on him, the president, a natural pleasure surged in Mu Yun's heart, but on the surface, of course, he was still the same light and breezy appearance, and nodded with a smile.

"That's right, if possible, we'd better not let the Imperial Expeditionary Force withdraw from this operation, but I think the NPC commander of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, Marshal Orem, is a little reckless, but not so stupid that he can't even see the stakes, let's wait and see what happens."

After Mu Yun finished speaking, the players in Mu Yun nodded in agreement, but he noticed that the player who first asked the question seemed to have a slightly confused expression.

"What's wrong, Fierce Sword? Any questions? ”

The player known as the Fierce Sword had a subtle expression.

"No, I think the president is right, but it always feels a little weird to say that NPCs won't be so reckless...... Haha, delusion, I think too much. ”

The others were a little puzzled when they heard it, and even after Liejian himself finished speaking, he seemed to feel that he didn't understand the source of the sense of disobedience he felt just now, scratching his head and snorting, and Liejian himself revealed the matter.

Only Mu Yun's heart moved, the expression on his face remained unchanged, but he was a little annoyed that he accidentally said something for a while.

After obtaining the Godhead Fragment and learning the truth about the world, Mu Yun no longer regarded these NPCs as intelligent programs created by game companies based on programming modeling, but really began to treat them as human beings. Reckless but not stupid,This kind of evaluation on NPCs will indeed be easy to disobey people with keen senses,After all, for ordinary players,NPCs' actions are controlled by the background setting data of the system and game companies,It's obviously a little inappropriate to say that a "program" is smart or reckless or something.

Fortunately, the fierce sword did not delve into it, and Mu Yun simply stopped explaining anything, but continued to consider the action arrangements in the next battle.

The Imperial Expeditionary Force would be arranged to be used as bait, in fact, Mu Yun had somewhat expected it. In the four legions of Geraldburg, even in a collective general attack without strategy to speak of, the NPCs at the top of the Order Alliance will deliberately separate the battle areas that the Imperial and Federation armies are responsible for, in order to prevent unnecessary friction between the two old enemies on the battlefield. In a separate battle like this one, the Federation and the Empire will inevitably be separated, and unlike Marshal Olem on the Imperial side, the leader of the Federation Expeditionary Force, Farouo, is not only a strong personal strength, but also a ruthless character with great resourcefulness and calculation.

Thinking of this, Mu Yun couldn't help but have a glimmer of light in his eyes, the commander of the Federal Expeditionary Force, Archmage Farouo, although he had not had much contact with this NPC, but by understanding Farouo's past, and by understanding Farouo's various performances on the battlefield of Geraldburg, Mu Yun is now quite suspicious of Farouo's identity.

Although the NPCs in the game are actually real natives from another world, under the suppression of the mysterious game system, they should not show too much sense of independence, but the flexible command measures that this Farouo archmage shows on the battlefield and the behavior of deliberately seeking benefits for the Federation and suppressing the empire during deliberations make Mu Yun feel that this is not something that an ordinary NPC can do.

It seems that we have to find a chance to test it......

Thinking like this, and thinking of the strangulation plan against the Super Chaos Lord that he had secretly designed with the godhead fragment and the high-level powerhouse on the elf clan's side Sival a few days ago, Mu Yun suddenly had an idea in his heart.
