Andrius smiled but did not explain. Instead…
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
After a series of heavy blows, Andrius finally released the Second War God and said expressionlessly,” That was for the fallen Lycantroops soldiers and the lost territory.”
The Second War God’s eyes twitched, but he was speechless.
Yes.
According to Florence’s traditions, it would not be excessive to execute him for losing territory.
Andrius snorted coldly. “Get lost. I need to discuss important military matters now.”
With the support of his guards, the Second War God struggled to stand up and limped away. He did not say a word, but his eyes flickered with boundless resentment, and his heart filled with fury. “Andrius Moonshade, just you wait. I’ll make you pay sooner or later!”
The group soon disappeared from sight.
“All commanders, gather in the main camp for a meeting,” Andrius commanded before he entered the main camp. The others followed closely.
In the Western Warzone main camp, Andrius sat at the head of the table, sweeping his sharp eyes around. “Report the latest situation on the battlefield.”
As soon as he spoke, one of the commanders stood up. It was Fenrir, one of the Eight Commanders. “The Western Nations are taking advantage of their numerical superiority. They have deployed five large armies, each with 800,000 troops.
“They keep 200,000 troops in the rear as reinforcements, totaling a million troops.
“Furthermore, each army is well–equipped with heavy tanks, fighter jets, bombers, electronic warfare units, emergency communication units, and so on.
“They’ve already launched an offensive from five directions: Bina Pass, Trudid Pass, Fanfoss Pass, Griffin Pass, and Bellmore Pass. They seem to intend to join forces below Yatburg and compete with us for supremacy!
Five armies from five directions…
The Western Nations were truly ambitious!
Andrius‘ eyes flickered with fierceness, and he continued to ask, “How is our army faring?”
Fenrir looked up at Andrius, then lowered his head again. “At the moment, the Lycantroops have suffered 80,000 casualties.
The bodies haven’t been recovered yet…”
Crack!
Before he could finish, his words were interrupted by a sound.
Andrius had pressed his hand onto the table so hard that it left a deep handprint.
80,000 men!
2/2
Andrius‘ heart was bleeding.
Every soldier of the Lycantroops was like his own flesh and blood.
They were the pillars of 80,000 families in Florence!
80,000 sons, husbands, and fathers!
However, their bodies were all turned to dregs because of Registus and the Second War God’s conspiracy!
How could Andrius not be furious?
For a time, the atmosphere in the main camp was terrifyingly oppressive.
All the commanders bowed their heads in silence.
After a long pause, Andrius spoke slowly. “Continue.”
“Besides losing tens of thousands of square kilometers of land, the Lycantroops‘ tanks, artillery, planes, electronic countermeasures equipment, and other assets haven’t suffered significant losses.
“However, we still haven’t found the culprits behind the hacking attack on our low–orbit satellite.
“At present, there are 100,000 troops at each of the five major passes, a hundred troops stationed at the headquarters‘ main camp, and the remaining 300,000 are distributed in the connecting areas between the various passes.
“By relying on the terrain, defensive structures, and our unique special forces that far surpass the enemies, we can temporarily hold on by using advantageous positions.”
Andrius had a rough idea after listening to the report.
The one–sided situation that he imagined had not occurred.
However, that was reasonable.
After all, they were on the defensive side, and the Lycantroops were naturally skilled in battle. Things would not go too wrong as long as no one played any tricks.
“In that case…”
Andrius pondered for a moment and swept his icy gaze over the commanders. “Convey my orders. Apart from the 100,000 troops stationed at headquarters, all the other Lycantroops soldiers are to gather near the five major passes.
“Make use of the favorable terrain and defend the land to their deaths.
“All scout units are not to venture beyond a hundred kilometers from the camp.
“Keep the all–weather radar activated.”
