The charcoal was burning vigorously, and the brazier made a sound. At midnight, the northern imperial court was still brightly lit. The clan lords spontaneously gathered together to discuss with each other and pay close attention to the military action of the Empire in the central part tonight.


    "I don''t understand why it''s McNee. He just joined us. If this action is as important as you said, the great emperor should send more trustworthy people."


    Gal touched his head and muttered.


    "Why, do you think you can do better?" Hogg asked with grinning teeth. They were the first family members to follow the black emperor. After so many years of coexistence, the Jackal leader and the orc leader were quite familiar.


    "That''s not true."


    The orc chief waved his hand: "I just doubt McNee''s loyalty. In addition, although the dwarf fights badly, he may not be good at fighting. Wang Ting obviously has a more suitable candidate in this regard."


    With that, the orc Nuo mouth toward the corner.


    Garon also came, entrenched in the corner, the skin on the brow bone was deeply wrinkled, and his eyes were dull and empty. It was obvious that he was deeply trapped in some kind of thinking. Among all the Lords of the royal court, only the command of the prince of poisonous fire could be confirmed. It led the army to explore and occupy the new world velost.


    When the great Emperor Caesar fell into a deep sleep, the prince of poison fire turned the tide and reversed the foreign war plan of the black wing empire with his own strength.


    Although many people criticized Garon at that time, with the passage of time, people gradually realized that the prince of poison fire was right, and the black emperor publicly showed his attention and appreciation. A series of events superimposed, which rapidly improved Garon''s status in the royal court.


    "Your Highness."


    Hogg came over. To tell the truth, he was also very confused and couldn''t understand Caesar''s idea. "Do you think there is any deeper purpose for the great emperor to send McNee to the middle? After all, in our opinion, you are the best person to command this operation."


    "Well..."


    Garon recovered from a daze, thought for a while, and then said, "maybe altolenso has more confidence in the dwarf, or maybe I have something else to do in his plan."


    "Well, if we really talk about war, no one can compare with the great emperor in my mind."


    Gal grunted twice and broke in, "when the old chief was still there, only a few hundred stone crow clans were surrounded by humans, and the great emperor..."


    In the middle of his words, he suddenly stopped, his eyes widened, and hurried to the huge conference table in the center of the king''s court.


    When Garon saw that all the lords were gathering there, he also leaned up and glanced at it. He found a suspended crystal on the table flashing a badge light. He was very familiar with this crystal. When the magic suppression of the veloster continent was lifted, he used this crystal to communicate remotely with the royal court and communicate the situation all the time.


    This is a crystal message from the middle.


    Soon, the look of the Lords of the king''s court became severe. For a moment, the huge northern King''s court was noisy, and the news conveyed by the crystal triggered a heated discussion.


    It happened that Caesar was yawning and swinging his tail. He had just coaxed Luna to sleep. He estimated that the Empire''s military action in the middle had probably made a preliminary report, so he took Odin, who was clinging to himself, and came to the king''s court to see the results.


    I didn''t expect to see the fierce discussion among the Lords of the royal court.


    Since the great emperor and his highness Odin, all clan leaders immediately kept silent. Caesar guessed seven or eight points in his heart when he saw the appearance of these guys, licked his lips and asked casually, "isn''t the middle going well?"


    "Your Majesty, our military operations have been hampered." Hogg took the lead in reporting: "McNee is sending a message to the royal court for reinforcements."


    "And reinforcements?"


    The black dragon muttered. Before he made any move, Odin had crowded into the Lord of the king''s court and showed him the messenger crystal.


    "The first phase of the plan has been completed. We have successfully established a foothold in the northern part of the Trade Federation, occupied 14 military camps and built six magic arrays that can carry out large-scale long-distance transmission."


    "In order to achieve this goal, I lost more than 60% of my troops, and the camp was filled with seriously injured and dead soldiers. Then I launched a tentative attack on the nearest city of myne, to no avail."


    "The strength of the local garrison is stronger than I thought. As far as the army I have at present is concerned, it can neither resist the coming counterattack nor carry out the rescue and occupation action in the next stage. Therefore, I specially summoned the royal court in the hope that the empire can provide more support."


    ... next is the detailed progress report submitted by McNee, the difficulties faced by the local black wing army, the military demand and his personal outlook on the future trend of the war.


    Seeing that the black emperor was lost in thought after reading the report, the Lords of the king''s court couldn''t sit still and stood up one after another to express their views.


    "Our army has always been invincible in ayladia, which even bards know, but the dwarves still can''t bring us a victory in a local war with such a large army."


    Radiation dragon leader TIA said, "Your Majesty, I dare not question your decision, but facts have proved that McNee lacks the ability to coordinate a war."


    "I don''t trust him," gal muttered. "I suspect McNee did it on purpose."


    The words of the clan leader pulled Caesar back to reality from his thinking. The black dragon looked around and raised his chin to the other dragon in the corner, "what do you think?"


    Garon looked around and found that he was right. Caesar named him to answer the question, so he pondered for a while and said tentatively, "altolenso, is it possible that it was our wrong judgment?"


    "Go on."


    "Before McNee''s departure, I discussed the battle plan with him in detail. His strategy was correct. The action report submitted now shows that he did not make any major mistakes. Everything went according to the plan, but the result was unsatisfactory."


    "Is it possible that the problem is not McNee, but us. We misjudged the enemy''s strength, not that McNee''s army is too weak, but that his opponent is too strong."


    As usual, Garon''s words will attract the angry eyes of other lords of the royal court as soon as he exports them, but now he has proved his ability. This guy''s thinking mode is very different from other lords, and he can often find some key points that are easy to ignore but very important.


    "Because of guarding against foreign enemies, the Empire has invested more energy in the central part than other main cities, and the early warning and defense system is complete. Most of you clan leaders here are legends. Who is confident to complete the capture and occupation of the trading city states overnight?"


    Garon looked around, but received no response. He could only hear the deep breathing of the Lords of the royal court.


    "But our enemy did it. It was an incredibly strong army, and McNee is facing it now."


    "The sun never sets, there is no reason to withdraw this army and return the central part to us, because once the central part returns to the control of the Empire and the Hejian land is lost again, the black wing clan can drive straight into the South - no one wants to see the war break out on their own land, which is a disaster."


    Hogg frowned and couldn''t help asking, "Your Highness, do you mean that this local war, the first contact between the two sides, is actually the final decisive battle between us and the empire that never sets?"


    "It''s not a decisive battle, but it''s also a very important war, and it''s also a very difficult war." Garon sighed and whispered, "so I said at the beginning that there may be an abyss and hell ahead."


    "No," Caesar smiled at him, "we are the abyss and hell for the empire that never sets."


    "The soldiers on the front line are bleeding. Be sure to ensure that medical and logistical supplies are in place in time. Hogg, let the third Orc infantry regiment, the Centaur corps, the fourth armored corps and the special reaction force go to the middle for reinforcements."


    After finishing all in one breath, the black dragon thought that these alone could not win the war, so he turned his neck and said in a soft rather than dignified tone: "Odin, my daughter..."
