Chapter 1441: Strike And Cripple
Within the military headquarters building of Mocdan, there were people walking into the combat conference room one after another. The meeting room was not spacious. After all, before Alan attacked Mokedan, the stronghold city was very peaceful. The Military Department had only used a pitiful number of items to enter the buildings and conference rooms, especially the combat conference rooms.
All of a sudden, so many people rushed into the meeting room that it seemed to be crowded.
The people who entered the meeting room were naturally divided into two groups, which could be said to be completely different. It was divided into former imperial generals and high-ranking officers led by Melani, as well as Allen's followers and generals of the Forgotten Realm. Apart from these two groups of people, there were also two guild leaders, Luche and Jia Ya.
The last person to enter was Alan. Even with his current status, he was only given a slightly larger chair in the conference room. Allen sat down and glanced at everyone before nodding, "Let's begin."
He looked at Melanie, who stood up and clicked a few times on the brain tablet that he carried with him. Holographic projections began to appear in front of everyone's eyes. Very quickly, two holographic images were formed from prismatic beams of light. Even if it was just a digital virtual image, everyone present felt an invisible pressure.
After all, what appeared in their eyes were the images of the two great generals of the empire.
"The Black Ball and the Black Cat Guild provided us with information so that we could know the identities of the two Great Generals in advance." Melani gently nodded at the two women in Luche, then slightly moved his fingers. One of the images expanded, "Lord Alan should not be familiar with the Great General of the Empire, so let me briefly introduce the two Great Generals here." First of all, this was Ganli, who was called a madman. The nickname of this general, Ganli, should be the Blood Gel madman. Perhaps Smoker and Zhuo De are more familiar with this general than I am? "
Zhuo De's face was ashen and he didn't say anything. Another surrendered general, Smoker, could only say, "Ganli's battle prowess is only at the middle level of the empire, but his brutality is only one of Bali's." In addition, Bali was only fierce and bloodthirsty on the battlefield, but Ganli was a complete pervert. His favorite thing to do was to torture his opponent. There is even a record of torturing an unarmed woman for 30 days to let her die. I also heard that he ate the flesh and blood of his enemies alive, so I don't know if it's true or false. "
"In short, I would rather die at Bali's hands than be Ganli's prisoner."
"A psychologically distorted freak?" Alan looked at the image of Ganli. The Baltimore could not see what Smoker had described from the outside. It was even the exact opposite of what Smoker had said. The image of his appearance was extremely graceful. Only his gaze was abnormal.
Melani coughed softly and said, "General Smoker has already explained everything in detail, so I don't need to talk too much. What needs to be added is that most of Ganli's abilities are related to blood. If we are to fight against him, please be on guard against this."
"In that case, I believe that the other Great General will not be familiar to anyone who originally belonged to the empire. That's right, he is Mirion. He is the Great General known as the Thunder Demon and the elder brother of the deceased General Rupert. I am not surprised that he will appear in this conquest army." Melani looked deeply at Alan.
'"Don't tell me they're brothers," Allen said with a tug at the corner of his mouth.
In the image, Mirion was sitting, but he was unparalleled in his domineering manner. This imperial general was well-proportioned, but he was definitely not robust. However, that domineering aura was revealed from his bones. Although it was only an image, the appearance of the radio light in that eye was absolutely unforgettable.
"As his nickname suggests, Mirion's ability is related to lightning. If he was in a thunderstorm, his strength would be maximized. Of course, as long as he was willing, Miriam could create a thunderstorm climate. Among the generals of the empire, he was ranked second, only slightly inferior to the number one general in the Dark Shadow Castle, Saber Demon Galen, who had not died three times.
Ellen was slightly surprised, "Carolyn, does that sound like a woman?"
"That's right. The number one general, Saber Demon, is indeed a woman. She is as beautiful as a flower and as sharp as a blade. She is also one of the great generals of the empire. Apart from former General Frius, there is another expert who dares to challenge that person." Melanie paused for a moment before continuing, "The only difference is that Frius is now another Paragon, and Carolyn is still the one who serves Shadow Castle."
'"Alright, these two generals are the ones that are worth paying attention to. As for the other imperial generals, I don't think they should be in Melani's eyes. My work is over here. As for how to deal with them, I'll leave it to Sir and the other generals." Lord Alan said.
After he sat down, Allen leaned forward and said, "The empire has sent out two generals this time, which is enough to give me face." Fortunately, one of them was a pervert in the middle of the rankings, while the other was ranked second, but it was better than the first general. "Therefore, everyone can relax a little and start thinking about how to deal with these two generals and the 100,000 troops."
Alan said it with ease, but there were a few people at the table who could really relax. Not to mention Thunder Demon Bali, who was still ranked above Mirion, for example, Mad Demon Ganli was not an easy character to deal with. Even if he was ranked in the middle, even if he was a general at the bottom of the rankings, as long as he grasped the role of the Void Origin Energy, how could he be a weakling?
They were weaker than Allen.
Two imperial generals, several generals, and a hundred thousand troops. No matter what, this lineup could be considered luxurious. However, Allen's forces weren't weak, and there were also quite a few experts, even at the general level. Putting aside Alan, who had killed Bali, there were still Tong Wu and Twilight.
It was just that Twilight had provoked Alan earlier, and was currently recovering from his injuries. It wasn't that he couldn't make a move, it was just that his combat strength had been reduced.
Both sides were evenly matched, both in terms of military strength and combat strength. However, Alan no longer had any trump cards to reveal, but the empire had a deep foundation. He was afraid that if he killed this wave of troops, there would still be an endless stream of troops on the empire's side.
Moreover, the Paragon in Demoic Ring City was the biggest shadow that lingered in everyone's hearts.
The people on Allen's side were still better, but the old imperial tribes like Zhuo De were deeply afraid. After the two surrendered generals exchanged views, Zhuo De coughed dryly and said, "Lord Alan, we don't think it's appropriate to take the initiative in this battle. The enemy and we are roughly equal, and we won't take advantage of it if we take the initiative to attack. It's better to rely on Mokdan as a defense. With Mokdan's defense, we can drag the enemy out of the city."
Smoker added: "The empire is currently at war with Dobia on the eastern front, so I'm sure the empire won't be willing to hold on to our frontier for too long. If we can't end the war in a short period of time, then we can only negotiate. At that time, Lord Alan will be able to get more territory and resources."
The two generals' statements were immediately supported by the old tribes of the empire, and Alan could understand their thoughts. These people, including Smoker, were worried about one thing. It was because he was afraid that Mokedan would attract the attention of Demon King Sbernak and even make the Demon King come personally. That would definitely be a devastating blow.
Alan also knew this, and now he had to maintain a balance. It was no exaggeration to say that it was dancing on the tip of a knife to grow as fast as possible before pressing down on Spenak's bottom line. A carelessness must be the result of blood splashing everywhere.
"Tong Wu, what do you think?" Alan looked at the generals who belonged to the Realm of the Forgotten.
As the leader of the crowd, Alan had no reason not to answer since he had lost his words to him. However, this person has always been taciturn. After listening, he only said one sentence: "Retreating will only help increase the enemy's flames. I only know that they will obediently obey when the enemy is afraid."
Only people in the Forgotten Realm were afraid of them, and they had never shown weakness. The suggestions of the old imperial clan weren't to their liking, but now that their leader, Tong Wu, held the main battle opinion, they immediately won a round of applause.
Smoker and Zhuo De exchanged glances. The former held his forehead while the latter shook his head.
The two sides continued to fight over the main defensive or main battlefield. Even Hubble joined the main battlefield. As for the old imperial clan, Melanie was the only one who remained silent. For a moment, the meeting room was filled with enthusiasm, and the people on both sides were so close to making a move.
When the two sides were fighting until their faces were red and ears were red, a light cough sounded. Although his voice was soft, it suppressed everyone's voices. Naturally, it was Alan who made the noise, so Smoker and Tong Wu raised their hands together to stop the people on their side from arguing further. Everyone's eyes fell on Alan.
Alan flicked his finger on the table and did not speak in a hurry. Hearing his regular snapping of his fingers, the emotions of the people in the meeting room gradually calmed down. Only when their heartbeats were synchronized with the snapping of their fingers did he smile and say, "Actually, what you said makes sense."
"Smog and the other generals are afraid that Mockdale will be too sharp and attract the interference of the one in Shadow Castle. There's probably nothing worse than that." Alan added, "But Tong Wu is right. Isn't it always the big fist who makes the decisions on Agares? If we keep retreating, I don't think even if we push the empire to the negotiating table, we'll be able to gain more benefits."
When the people on both sides heard this, they revealed thoughtful expressions.
Zhuo De frowned and said, "What does Sir mean?"
"Take the initiative to fight. Let the empire know that we are not afraid of strong enemies." Allen's gaze fell on the projections of the two generals. "But how and to what extent we fight is something that needs to be considered. I personally believe that it should be more or less the same to beat the other without crippling him."
Melanie asked at the right time, "My lord, how can I be considered a defeat? What can I be considered a cripple?"
'"Very simple. Leaving two generals is believed to be enough to defeat the morale of the opponent no matter what. As for crippling them, they will naturally leave the Imperial General and half of the army behind." Alan smiled and pointed at the two projections, "So, everyone has no other opinions?"
After a burst of whispering in the meeting room, Smoker and Tong Wu, as representatives, said in unison, "No."
This was the first time that the power of the legacy realm and the old tribe of the empire had reached an agreement on the same important matter.
