Fred stared at the latest tactical map, his eyebrows tightly twisted into a Sichuan character. A few days later, the ambush circle he had set up in the Alpine volcanic belt still hadn't been triggered, which was much more than he expected!

Could it be that the leader of the Demon Legion saw through his ambush and avoided the ambush circle and went elsewhere?

It's not impossible! Although the Demon Legion is naturally not very good at discerning the environment, and it is difficult to spot ambush troops that use equipment to block their own heat source signals, as long as they have a wealth of combat knowledge and realize that their weaknesses are being seen through, it is easy to guess that the Alps closest to the Enet Volcanic Belt may be hiding enemy ambushes.

"Anna, bring me the information you have around the Alps these days!"

"Okay, General."

Ten minutes later, the able adjutant put the relevant information gathered from various places in front of Fred's case.

Fred picked up the information and flipped through the pages one by one, sometimes comparing and referring several pieces of information together, until he had flipped through all the materials, Fred did not find any trace of the Demon Legion's turn, but there were many reports of witnesses of conflicts between small groups of demons and native xenos.

"Is that all? Anna? ”

"General, I'm sure nothing was missed, all the reports for the last few days are here!"

After receiving an affirmative reply from his adjutant, Fred pinched the corners of his eyes, which were a little sour from overuse, and whispered to himself:

"Do they also know how to break it into pieces? It doesn't look like they're going to be that organized, right? ”

Anna looked at the admirable boss in front of her in distress, eager to help him do something. In the past few days, Anna had never seen Fred rest for more than two hours in a day, and many times he would crawl on top of his desk to take a nap and continue working, and Anna was very worried that his body would be exhausted.

"General, don't be distressed any more! Maybe there's a civil strife between them! After all, they had their first defeat. ”

Infighting!

Anna's words were like a bolt of lightning that pierced the confusion in Fred's heart, the sudden division of the demon legion across the Panama Canal was originally unreasonable, according to the loose social structure of the enemy that he observed on a daily basis, the internal disagreement was probably the reason why the demon legion's behavior had exceeded his expectations recently!

Fred jumped up from his seat excitedly and hugged Anna:

"Oh, Anna, you are truly my angel! Hurry up, go and find all the recent sightings of demons, don't be limited by their size and region, as long as it's on this continent, you have to collect it all! ”

A flushed Anna exited the office. Suddenly embraced by the object of her secret admiration, she was also dizzy and didn't know what to say for a while, only felt that her heart was filled with something called happiness.

The excitement of the mood did not affect the professionally trained skills, and Anna was still very efficient in gathering all the relevant information, and after going through all the documents, Fred exclaimed excitedly:

"Anna, tell everyone to go to the operations center! We're going to put an end to this campaign once and for all! ”

Half an hour later, the operational command center was filled with commanders of various units, and they were all very curious about what kind of big move Fred was going to make when he gathered them.

While they were talking in a whisper, Fred, who was in high spirits despite his bloodshot eyes, walked in and sat down at the head of the desk, and said in a tone that could not suppress his excitement:

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is civil strife in this demon army in Europe, and it is no longer a serious threat to us. Look! From the day after we regained Sicily, small groups of demons spread out aimlessly, some even moved laterally to the Balkans, where they clashed with the local security zone guards. There are all kinds of signs that the time is ripe for us to turn back and encircle and suppress the demon legions of Central Asia! ”

Fred's eyes swept over the commanders who were looking through the information, and announced loudly:

"I order: Except for the heavy mechanical units that are only suitable for defense, all other equipment and personnel must be quickly transferred and redeployed within a week, and from the eighth day onwards, we will wait for an opportunity to launch an encirclement and annihilation war against the enemy in Central Asia!"

Fred's order caused an uproar in the command center, and the bold battle plan made everyone excited and worried about the safety of Area O, as an important industrial area that stopped supplying various combat equipment to the Alliance, it was related to the safety of the entire human race.

Fred, of course, understood what they were worried about, and smiled at everyone:

"You don't have to worry about the security of Area O, I'm going to keep most of my reconnaissance force here to monitor the enemy. As long as the various volcanic belts are properly controlled, the demon legion without a base will not be able to make any big waves. And once that volcano shows signs of activation, it will be ruthlessly attacked by our side! ”

"And what about intelligence work in Central Asia? What do we rely on to grasp the movements of the demon legion? ”

Immediately, some generals questioned Fred's plan.

Fred laughed:

"Normally, it is necessary to ensure that there are enough reconnaissance forces to act as the eyes and ears of the troops, but today's Central Asia is too crowded!"

Everyone suddenly realized! Now Central Asia will break out almost every hour of fierce battles between the demon legions and the native xenomorphs, and humans can accurately grasp the location and scale of the demon legions as long as they leak out of the energy wave signals, and those things can be done through the monitoring stations arranged by the military everywhere, and there is really no need to use other additional means to collect.

In fact, Fred has been asking the alliance to transfer the industry in Area O, after all, Area O is now too close to the front line, and the enemy will be able to rush from the opposite mainland to the core of Area O in a few days, and such a small defensive depth makes it unnecessary for Area O to establish a security zone.

According to Fred's plan, most of Europe will be reclassified into buffer zones, and the original personnel and equipment will be withdrawn into other safe areas, and whether this plan will be adopted by the alliance is a reflection of how much influence he has over the alliance.

The general direction of the meeting was set, and the subsequent development naturally came naturally, and the commanders put forward their own views and opinions, and gradually perfected the whole plan, and when the whole plan was formulated, it was late at night, but the excited commanders were still in high spirits.

There was also a group of people who did not feel sleepy in the middle of the night.

"Fourth uncle, for Fred, I propose that Area O be merged

What do you think of the motions in District and Area C? ”

The courtyard of the Nangong family was brightly lit, and the family members gathered together, and everyone was seated according to their identities and status in the conference hall, and the first formal family meeting was being held.

The first to speak was Nangong Yunfei. As the eldest son of the previous patriarch, Nangong Yunfei naturally inherited the position of the patriarch, leading the people of the Nangong family to continue to control the big ship in Area C and move forward in the wind and rain.

However, the fact that he was able to gather all the members to start the first meeting was enough to show that his control over the family was far less than that of his father, and if it weren't for Fred's proposal to really affect the interests of others in Area C, it was not known when the first meeting would have been held normally.

Nangong Yunfei's second uncle was still absent as usual at this meeting, and the second uncle, who was only focused on researching lost technology, could only see him in the meeting related to the honor and disgrace of the Nangong family. In the absence of Nangong Yun and Nangong Xing, Nangong Sheng's opinion is particularly important.

Nangong Sheng pondered for a while before he said slowly:

"This is an attack on us by the pioneers! Even if Area O were to be evacuated, personnel and equipment should be evacuated to their traditional allies, and instead of leaving the huge Area A, they would stay on the pretext of easy relocation

Sector and Area C are nothing more than trying to find a foothold in our sphere of influence, and then slowly eat away at the surrounding forces. ”

Everyone in the Nangong family nodded yes to Nangong Sheng's analysis, and after a while, the buzzing hall fell silent, and everyone waited for their patriarch to give a plan to deal with it.

"Otherwise, we'll just reject them!"

Hearing such a childish speech, Nangong Kun, who was sitting below and had been playing with his fingers, couldn't help but look up, but what he expected was good, it was Nangong Hui, the famous brainless Nangong of the Nangong family, who said this, Nangong Kun sneered and lowered his head again.

Seeing that the people in his camp actually said such willful words, Nangong Sheng's face was gloomy, and he hurriedly scolded:

"It's not about dinner, you said you won't let you come? That Fred was now gaining momentum, and seeing that he was about to win this battle beautifully, how could the rest of the Supreme Council not give him some face? By the time he returns victoriously from the front, it will probably be the moment when the Migration Act is passed! Usually pay more attention to current affairs, don't always fool around outside, what you say will only make people laugh! ”

was scolded by Nangong Sheng in front of everyone, Nangong Hui's face was also a little unbearable and argued:

"In that case, it is better to ......"

"Shut up!"

Nangong Yunfei slapped the table and shook the tea set on it. As his younger brother, Nangong Yunfei knew very well what he was about to say, and stopped him before he could speak. Because Nangong Yunfei knows very well that there are many unscrupulous people in the family who will do anything to achieve their goals, and if he lets his younger brother open this momentum, the situation will be difficult to control.

Nangong Hui is truly convinced of his brother. He ruined his career back then, indirectly killed his sister-in-law, and inadvertently put his niece in danger not long ago, Nangong Yunfei still didn't complain about him. If there are still people in the Nangong family who can make Nangong Hui change his mind, then one is the father he is afraid of, and the other is the eldest brother who makes him respect.

Seeing Nangong Yunfei angry, Nangong Hui sat down stupidly, he couldn't understand why his eldest brother was so pedantic, and the problem that could be solved with a few small actions was abnormal.

"As a superior and manager, the best way is to make the other party surrender by fair and honest means, and not have the heart to resist. The second is to put pressure on the other side through one's own strength, and the second is to assassinate, sabotage and other methods that will cause endless trouble. You must know that although the third method is effective, the cost of implementation is very low, you can use it, others can also use it, which is tantamount to giving up our own advantages and pulling ourselves to the same level as those weak, which is really unwise! This family meeting will only discuss how to strengthen one's own strength in the future, and nothing else!"

Nangong Yunfei finally set the tone for this meeting with the authority of the patriarch, but how many people listened to these words in their hearts? The prosperity of the Nangong family for more than a hundred years has made the people below accustomed to solving problems with domineering means, unscrupulously excluding dissidents, and the entire alliance already has a lot of complaints against them, and they still don't know it.

The current Nangong family is like a decaying hundred-year-old tree, the tall body is a hollowed out trunk, and it only takes an external force to crash to the ground, even if the huge base gives birth to a few healthy new shoots, it can't stop this inevitable fate, which can be seen from the actions of all parties in the alliance after Nangong Yun's death.

But except for a few smart people in the Nangong family, no one saw the urgent crisis hidden behind the prosperity!
