“What? Do you have anything to say about that?” Caspian asked Macy, who was spacing out.

Macy froze for a moment before blushing. She said apologetically, “No, nothing. I’ll complete my mission.”

“You sure?” Caspian asked.

This was the first time Macy had spaced out during such an important meeting. Her mission was very important, and Caspian did not want anything to be amiss.

“I’m sure!” Macy nodded emphatically.

Caspian stopped worrying once he noticed the determination burning in Macy’s

gaze.

Right at this moment, they heard rapid footsteps coming from outside. Macy’s and Caspian’s gazes met. They reached the same conclusion–Sylvia was here.

Everyone glanced in the direction of the sound, and sure enough, Sylvia was walking briskly toward them. She took huge steps at a time.

Sylvia had been carrying out a mission somewhere else, but Caspian had summoned her over to the cave anyway. It was because he was used to her presence and also because he found it easy to make use of her a general who had already been working with him for a long time.

With such a large–scale operation ahead of him, Caspian thought of Sylvia almost immediately.

“Lord Caspian! I’m not late, am I?” Sylvia asked hurriedly the moment she entered the cave.

“The meeting has already ended. What are you even here for?” Macy asked sarcastically.

“It’s fine if you want to be impolite to me under normal circumstances, but we’re fighting a war now. Have a clear idea about where you stand, at least.” Sylvia was a general officer, after all. Of course, she would be annoyed upon hearing Macy’s sharp remarks,

“Fine, fine, you’re a general officer, after all. I have to complete my mission, so I won’t spend more time talking to you.” Macy saluted Casplan and Dax before turning to leave.

“Look at her, Lord Caspian! She’s so impolite!” Sylvia said, enraged.

“Sylvia, you’ll be the front line leader starting from today. You’ll lead a squad that will station itself near Mount Dracelaris!”

“Yes, Lord Caspian!” Sylvia answered.

Caspian asked, “Champion Santos, how many people can the air raid shelter at the foot of Mount Dracelaris accommodate at most?”

“The shelter is huge, Lord Caspian. It can accommodate three to four hundred thousand soldiers with no problem,” Dax said.

“We have about a million soldiers in total, so they’ll have to split up before surrounding the enemy together!” Caspian formulated strategies as he spoke, pointing out several key locations on the map.

“You’ll be the chief commander for this battle, Champion Santos!” Caspian said

to Dax.

“No, no, Lord Caspian. The chief commander can be no one but you! I’ll just be the deputy commander,” Dax said somewhat fearfully.

“Don’t refuse the position. This is West Aridlands, which is your territory. Also, most of the people here are your subordinates, so you can deploy them more effectively than me,” Caspian said indifferently.

“You’re the Diatoranian God of War, Lord Caspian. Everyone will surely listen to you if you’re to be the chief commander. I’ll just support you from the side,” Dax said respectfully.

He respected Caspian from the bottom of his heart. He would not be listening to Caspian’s orders otherwise.

“Let’s do it this way. You’ll be chief commander in name, but I’ll command in secret. You can pass the power back to me when the King officially reinstates me to my original position,” Caspian said without mincing his words.

In the capital of Filren, Byron was caught in a dilemma. They had announced an attack aimed at Diatoran, but nothing had been done in the past two days. This had enraged many Filrenian soldiers.

Filren was flooded by complaints aimed at Byron at this moment.

“Great news, Your Majesty!” Jason shouted excitedly.

Jason was usually a stole man. For him to be so excited, there had to be really

great news. That made Byron feel thrilled in turn.

“What great news? Tell me now!” Byron demanded.

“We’ve successfully gotten our hands on a set of communication equipment that belonged to the Diatoranian authorities, and we’ve also cracked the code to them!

Jason was trembling in excitement.

“Did it come from a reliable source?” Byron asked, somewhat in disbelief.

It’s reliable, as proven by various parties,” Jason answered.

“Would the encrypted code used by Diatoran really be so easy to crack?” Byron asked.

“Our intelligence department spent a lot of effort on it! We also invested a lot of money in this department so that they could decrypt codes more easily. The intel we acquire through these methods is really helpful when in battle,” Jason explained.

“That’s great! We must eavesdrop on Diatoran every day through this equipment so that we can gain useful information that will aid us in battle!‘

Byron believed wholeheartedly in Jason’s words now. If they could learn about Diatoran’s plans in advance, they need not worry that they would be helpless against the Diatoranian troops.

Locked in a cell in Dhord City Prison, Jerry was slumped on the ground. He looked defeated and completely disheveled!

After the fall of his family, Jerry was imprisoned. Zane had become a wanted criminal as well.

The King made the news of the Andrews family’s rebellion public, which answered a lot of questions. Many people wondered why Diatoran had been meek in the face of various threats, but now it was evident that it had been a result of the Andrews family’s meddling.

Caspian was still formulating strategies when Dax walked over to him, asking, ” Will Filren launch a sudden attack against us, Lord Caspian?”

Before Caspian could respond, someone from the intelligence department ran over. He reported to Caspian, “Rocket cars from the enemy side are rapidly approaching us, sir!”

“There are only 20 miles between us. They surely moved all of a sudden because they want to launch a sneak attack against us,” Caspian said calmly.

Only after hearing Caspian’s words did Dax come to realize how big the disparity between him and Caspian was.

“Champion Santos, deploy the special forces unit to destroy those rocket cars immediately!” Caspian ordered.

“Yes, Lord Caspian!” Dax returned to the command center immediately.

Meanwhile, Caspian stood on the hill and watched the stars in the sky. After taking in some fresh air, he entered the command center as well.

He gave Dax an order, “Champion Santos, give me a squad of ten thousand elite soldiers. Also, tell the reporters in Dhord City to come here.”

Dax did not know why Caspian was doing this, but he carried out Caspian’s orders anyway. He asked, “Who’s going to command this squad, Lord Caspian?”

“I am!” Caspian said determinedly.

Dax was shocked. He said in alarm, “You’re the chief commander, Lord Caspian! How could you put yourself in such a risky situation?”

“You’re the chief commander, not me. I’m leading this squad of elite soldiers into the capital of Filren!” Caspian said, nonchalant.

Dax said in surprise, “This is too dangerous, Lord Caspian!”

Caspian said, “In order to defeat a country, we must first seize its king. With this, we can decrease the number of casualties on our side.”

“Alright then.” Dax nodded. If Caspian had made his decision, who was he to object to it?
