Emerald, Duke Lionheart's estate.

The green lawn is almost endless, and a small river passes through a small forest of dozens of willows and several other species of trees under the blue sky and white clouds.

There was a small wooden bridge in the woods, and at this end there was a gazebo, and two old men sat opposite each other.

The two earth dogs chased and played on the side of the small wooden bridge, and soon returned to the pavilion and crawled at the feet of the old man, sticking out their tongues to dissipate heat.

"What do you want to do?" Steele frowned and jumped off his horse, eating one of the old man's soldiers on the other side, "I'm sure you just withdrew the main fleet to the space station near the Emerald Jade, but should you tell me what you want to do?" ”

"Save you and your fleet." The old man flew to the face, "You now have time to gather your scattered main fleet and take back your territory. ”

"What do you mean?" Steele didn't understand, "Let's be clear, I'm no older than you." ”

"The Triumph Corridor is probably in flames of war now." The old man handed over an electronic document, "This is the battle report transmitted back by the Border Star, and it was only sent back to Fei Lengcui through special channels. ”

Sterl got up when he heard the Triumph Corridor, "You actually pressed the Triumph Corridor to the gaming table without my consent?" Do you know that I am the supreme commander of the Triumphal Corridor? Commander-in-Chief of the Truman Military District? You're overstepping your authority! ”

"No, it's within my purview." The old man smiled, "Don't forget that I am the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmacht, the supreme armed commander of the country, and the commander of the supreme command." Even if I were to remove you from all your duties now, it would be possible. ”

"Hey, play hooligan with me?" Skard's beard blew and glared, "Okay! Come on! Tell you that I wanted to retire for a long time! Don't think I don't know who is stopping me from retiring every year, and you just expect me to work hard for you to death! ”

The old man smiled, "You don't have to talk to me about that, you old python can't die well, and your death will definitely be accompanied by the fall of the cyclops." ”

Steele sat down angrily, "You already knew? ”

"No, it's better to infer it from Norton's war, they have been premeditated for a long time. They must have been planning for a long time for this large-scale battle. The old man continued to play chess, "The Demon Lord who appeared in Canglan Star last time has been studied by Reina, and it is not the main body. It's hard to imagine that such an existence is likely to have a very small force, but it can resist the joint attack of the Pope and the Knight King. ”

"So you're guessing they're going to use high-end combat power this time? The highest is the level of the upper demon general. Steel, too, calmed down, and said nonchalantly.

"With your fleet and command strength, it is possible to bombard a high-ranking demon general in space, but what about more than one? And what if there was a higher level? How are you going to deal with it? The old man raised his eyes and looked at Stehl, "Can the six viper fleets you are hiding win in the face of such a super combat force that is very likely to appear collectively?" ”

Steele was silent, with his ability to command the number one in space and all the fleets under his command, he really didn't dare to say that he would win in the face of the demon fleet beyond his imagination. What existence can be more powerful than the superior demon general? Then there's only the magic handsome.

That kind of super combat power is simply not something that Sdel can deal with, because the strength of the demon commander exceeds the level that can be defeated with stratagem, tactics and military affairs.

The only time in his life that Stehl had seen a demon-level combat force appear was when he was just a small staff officer in the fleet staff. The Demon Marshal appeared that day, and Steele will never forget that scene, he didn't seem to have done anything, but four B-class fleets were silently destroyed in space, and there was not even a wreckage left.

Everyone was stupefied, and Steele couldn't forget what he saw at that moment, which almost became his nightmare.

The old man took out a cigarette and stretched out his slightly trembling hand to light it, "Angel troops, it's time for them to go out." ”

"An application has been made to the Papal Chamber, and Komuri will also understand the seriousness of this situation."

"Why?" Steele looked at the old man, "You know, why don't you just tell me that I can withdraw all the troops from the Triumph Corridor!" ”

"Do you want to let that starry sky out without firing a shot?" The old man raised his head, and his hand slapped in front of Steel, "The one-eyed python Steele I know can't be such a person, your indifference is even more above me, sacrificing part of your combat power in exchange for overall victory, isn't this what you often do?" ”

"Without sacrifice, there is no victory." The old man let go of his hand, and the green general was right in front of him, just after the old man had eaten Stehl's general.

"But if it is a sacrifice that cannot be exchanged for a little victory, it is meaningless! If I can kill those high-ranking demon generals and demon commanders, I am willing to sacrifice my own group fleet and my own life to open the way for you! "What is the point of such a sacrifice?" For the last dignity? To prove that we are actually resistant? There's a fucking shit win! ”

"Absolutely!" The old man also got up and looked directly at Sdel, "Their sacrifice is not meaningless! Opposite! They will be an absolute winner for future wars! ”

"What? Is the mana of his subordinates boundless? "You're too superstitious about your own strength, god of war?" You're just an old man dying! ”

"Yes, but you forgot that this old man of mine has a big card in his hand, a big card that is enough to turn the world upside down!"

Stehl's pupils shrank, "Liang Shanjun? Their strength only wants to be a few armies against the Salvation Army, and they are as vulnerable as ants on the frontal battlefield! Do you even count on them? ”

"Did you know that ants can carry a weight fifty times their own weight?" The old man pointed to the overturned chessboard, "On the battlefield, even if it is just a small soldier who rushes to the end, he will become a general!" Behold, a soldier has slain your general! ”

"You! Unreasonable! Unreasonable! Steele turned away angrily, "I'm going to gather my army, you better not let me down, or I'll have to tear your skin with all my might!" ”

The old man sat down again, "Someone will inform you in dozens of hours, remember to go to that meeting, don't be late." ”

Sdel paused, "That kid Donald is my student, my favorite student. In the future, he will take my place as the new king of space naval warfare. Now because of you, he may be dying. ”

"War inevitably comes at the expense of some people, it's inevitable." The old man said.

"But he shouldn't have died there!" Sdel's last voice came from the woods, filled with resentment.

The old man looked at the path where Steele had left, then bent down and touched the fur of the two earth dogs, "We will win, this is also inevitable." ”
