"That kid has changed a lot." Alicia sighed.

"It is normal for people who carry their destiny to change a lot."

"Then I'll go take a shower first." Alicia said.

"Tell Cassif to move the door to the peninsula, it will be quieter." Char said.

Alicia nodded, she took a step forward, kissed Char on the cheek, and whispered.

"You're doing well today."

With that, she turned and entered the castle.

Char watched Alicia's departing back in silence until she was completely out of her sight.

But then, he looked at the battlefield, and there was a slight microwave in his deep gaze.

"If you're bored, just come up and talk." Char spoke.

Two shapeshifting magics flew up from below, standing behind Char.

"Looks like you have a lot of freedom now." Char looked at Gayward.

Char had been to see him a few years earlier.

At that time, he was in a very poor state, his body was thin, and his skeletal face had a pair of eyes that flickered and dimmed.

But now it's a little better, the flesh on my face has grown back a bit, and I look a little more energetic.

"I'm looking at him." Martin said.

"Come on." Gayward grinned, "You can fool the rest of the people, but you can't fool him." ”

He continued, "There's nothing in this world that can trap me. ”

"It's still the same." Char laughed.

He turned and sat down in the chair he had reclined from.

Char looked at the battlefield on one side, "How do you feel about this?" ”

"I'm not surprised." "My prophecy has never been wrong. ”

"He's taunted us many times." Martin smiled helplessly.

Char nodded, "The world is not black and white.

Standing at a crossroads where you don't know the direction you don't know, one may be the wrong way, and the other may not necessarily be the right one.

There is no comparison between what has happened and what has not yet happened. ”

He looked at Gayward, "I think he should understand that too." ”

Gaiward shrugged, "Who knows. ”

"How long do you think this battle will end?" Char asked.

Martin thought for a moment and said, "The industrial capacity of both sides is not bad, so this may be a protracted battle that should last for several months." ”

"Let a dragon come out and solve this war in half a day." Gaiward said.

"yes, everyone here has to die." Martin complained.

"I think it's going to be over in about three months." Char said.

"Are you so sure?" Martin asked curiously, "The battlefield is ever-changing. ”

"Because by then, no matter how far this battle has been fought."

Char picked up the tea cup on one side and took a sip of tea.

"Everything will come to an end."

Gayward seemed to realize something, his eyes flashing, "They turned on Pandora anyway"

He slowly found a place to sit down, crossed his fingers on his lower abdomen, and looked at the battlefield with great interest.

"William, wait and see, the world that has appeared because of you"

In the command position of the West Francis side of the battlefield of Verdun.

Chaandra opened the curtain of the camp.

It was full of generals and staff officers who commanded the battle, and even the young general who had entered the village and found Joan of Arc.

In the middle of the camp was a sand table, a thumbnail of the whole of Verdun, with flags representing the positions of the Allied and Allied armies.

On the tent in front of him hung a huge map, focusing on West France and Germany.

Several generals were arguing fiercely.

But as Joan of Arc opened the curtain and entered, everyone fell silent, and all eyes turned to her.

Joan of Arc didn't say a word, but walked in slowly, came to the middle of the map and the sand table, and looked at the sand table below.

"How far is the battle?"

The general on the other side reacted and said, "The enemy's offensive, firepower, and willingness to fight are unprecedentedly strong, and we guess that about thirty percent of the war resources of the entire Allied Powers should be concentrated here.

This number should still be growing.

The enemy first used thousands of artillery pieces to bombard our positions for eight hours, and then used mecha units with flamethrowers and advanced elite units to quickly break through our first and second lines of defense.

We could not resist and had to retreat. ”

Joan of Arc looked at the sand table in front of her with a solemn face, and after a moment, she asked.

"What about the west bank of the Meuse?"

"The enemy has no choice to attack here."

Joan of Arc frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something, but she soon figured out why.

Her eyes flashed with an unknown brilliance, "It seems that the pressure on the Allies on Beichen's side is greater than we thought. ”

She turned her head to look at the general on the side, "Inform me to use the Barodijk-Verdun highway to organize all the trucks and transport mechs in the country within a week, and do everything possible to ensure the operation of front-line materials."

At the same time, the engineer mecha was mobilized to strengthen the defense in depth. I'm going to build the whole of Verdun for 120 kilometers!

The construction of four defensive positions, the depth of the entire fortress should reach fifteen to eighteen kilometers, and not only that, but after the four defensive positions, it was necessary to prepare permanent fortifications and fortress areas. ”

"Yes."

The general did not hesitate and retreated directly, obviously preparing to move.

A few hours earlier, they had already received a telegram of appointment from the commander-in-chief.

At this moment, the girl in front of her is the Verdun front-line commander.

Responsible for mobilizing all the troops that could be mobilized, directing the battles in the Verdun theater of operations.

No one questioned the abilities of this teenage girl.

This era is still different from another era in which Joan of Arc lived.

At that time, Joan of Arc wanted to join the army and command the army to fight, and she needed to disguise herself as a man, but this era is different.

The core idea of West Francis came from Britannia, and since Arthur, the country has basically tended to equal rights, and women are recruited in the army, and even in Britannia's history, there have been several female generals.

They only believe in ability.

And in the previous wars, she has proven her ability again and again.

It was she who led the West Francis army to recapture Alsace and eastern Lorraine, which had been occupied by Germany for decades.

It was also she who commanded the blitzkrieg against Berlin, which almost ended the war years early.

It was also she who predicted the enemy's offensive line and the existence of the Battle of Verdun, which also allowed the army in West Francis to prepare in advance.

Otherwise, if it weren't for the fortifications they had built in advance, they would have died tens of thousands more.

Every general present was incredibly convinced.
