The Disqualified Commander of the Abandoned Shipgirl

Page 580

There was dead silence in the conference room.

"Tsk, this is the first time I've gotten such permission." Nomoto Wolf said, throwing his phone on the table.

You can march within the area!

What is this concept?

There has never been such treatment before.

No matter what, they are mobile private armed forces.

There are very big restrictions on moving within the safe zone.

Even if there is someone behind the scenes, it won't work because the noise is too loud and it's hard to cover up.

This time, an exception was made.

"This is also the first time I've received such permission." Shinagawa Kenichi raised his head and asked, "Did you all receive the same message?"

"Two, meet the enemy, march in the area."

"Yes, me too."

"..."

"Well, can we get down to business now?"

The Castle Guard asked.

He looked confident, as if he had anticipated this scene.

"…There's nothing I can do. Since it's the old man's order, it's not that easy to escape." Nomoto Wolf curled his lips.

The above restrictions are all very effective for them.

If it weren't for the family's support, funding and assistance, they wouldn't have been active for long.

Even if it has reached its current scale, the days ahead will be quite difficult.

Moreover, the orders from Sakura Castle will be completely lost.

Therefore, as long as the higher-ups give a strict order, we have no choice but to obey it obediently.

"On the bright side, we may not be facing such a difficult problem."

The city gosuke brought the topic back to the main business and said.

"If we leave 700,000 troops to him, it will take him several hours to kill them."

"...I can come around." Shinagawa raised his head and looked away from the laptop screen, "I've finished reading."

He looked at the castle guard.

"Your Cheng Hu family lost miserably."

"..."

"You beheaded so many people, wow, three thousand against thirty thousand, a crushing defeat! Are you so awesome?"

"Shut up!" City Guard Furious frowned and shouted, "I told you long ago that the enemy is very strong, very strong. It's not the City Guard family's problem! It's that the enemy is too strong! Look at Lin Shen's record! A one hundred to one casualty ratio, and it's like playing! Otherwise, why do you think the old man threw so many supplies over?"

"Oh, okay, okay, don't get excited. I'm just expressing my feelings." Shinagawa Kenichi comforted him casually, and then said seriously, "According to the intelligence, Lin Shen can only take out 3,000 troops at most. Even if he can still achieve a casualty ratio of 1:100, he can only replace 300,000 troops. What do you say? We still have 400,000 - less than 400,000, but he has used up all the chips in his hand. As long as Lin Shen does not use the decapitation tactic, there will be no suspense in this battle."

"Do you mean we should retreat and defend?" asked Nomoto Wolf.

"Yes."

"Heh, we have 700,000 troops! If you tell anyone about this, you'll be out of business."

"Then what do you think?"

"Were they given the privilege of marching within the district? Sakura's headquarters isn't too far away. We can just march 700,000 troops over there and scatter his ashes!" Nomoto Wolf grinned with a ferocious smile. "I heard that the vanguards in his hands are all mutants. Ha, can those things really fight one against 100,000?"

"...This is also a good idea, to take the initiative, but..." The city guard thought for a moment and said, "Have you ever thought that we are now a 'neutral' free armed force. If we take the initiative to attack [Sakura], our position will completely change. Even if someone is protecting us, many things will become difficult on the surface."

"Never mind him. If we win this battle, we will kill Lin Shen anyway! Won't we be wanted by then?" said Nomoto Wolf.

"..."

It makes sense.

"Then why don't we just send our army to attack them unexpectedly?" Ishimaru Mitsuru asked when he saw that no one else spoke.

"…700,000 troops moving in the area would make too much noise. The military can't ignore it. Even if they give this privilege, they can't just say nothing. This trip is very risky. Within three hours, the military can have no major reactions or actions, but after three hours, the pressure from public opinion will increase exponentially with every additional delay."

Komiya Takeshi finally spoke.

"In the final analysis, marching within the district is only a last resort and cannot be used as a primary tactic at will."

"..."

The conference room fell into silence again.

Can this be finished in three hours?

Nomoto Wolf frowned.

At any other time, he would have been full of confidence.

But this time, the opponents they faced were extraordinary.

Although he advocates taking the initiative, he is not a careless person.

"Moreover, the trump card of marching in this area is a one-time use." Xiao Gong Wusi further reminded, "After that, the military will definitely expel us, and we will completely lose the initiative against Lin Shen."

"..."

No one spoke.

The rest of the people deduced it in their minds.

If it comes to that, the enemy will have too much initiative in the end.

Lin Shen could drag it out without taking any action until the family had to withdraw its aid to [Liuying] and until [Liuying] had to leave Sakura Castle. By then, [Liuying]'s expanded size advantage would completely disappear.

Of course, even if the tactic of delaying is not used, [Liuying] will become extremely passive because it has lost the initiative.

In terms of public opinion, if the military still leaves [Liuking] near Sakura Castle, the pressure will be very great.

And it doesn't make sense anyway.

[Liuying] will have no choice but to evacuate at that time.

Then the question arises again. If we have to evacuate, what about the reinforcements coming from the family?

Will they be allowed to take it away?

“Taking the initiative is not advisable.”

After a long while, the Castle Guardsman spoke.

"It's not advisable to just wait blindly. Let's see what Lin Shen does first. If he wants to fight to kill him, we can do that. After we find out his position, we can send our army over and decide the outcome in one battle. This is the most flexible way. Before his actions become clear, we should wait for him to tire himself out and hide ourselves. As long as the five of us survive, Liuying will not be in chaos."

"..."

The other four looked at each other and nodded.

"For now, this is the only way..."

After the decision was made, the Sakuraburg safe zone fell into an eerie silence.

Of course, ordinary people don’t feel it.

In the eyes of Lin Shen, his family, and the military, the situation at this moment fell into an eerie silence.

Multiple intelligence networks all began to take action.

Before the official action began, the spy war actually began.

Lin Shen's position has always been at the headquarters of [Ying] and has never changed.

Therefore, the spy war before this war turned into an offensive and defensive battle between the Golden Holy Wings' intelligence network and the intelligence networks of several other parties.

The power is originally unequal, but——

Lin Shen is in the open.

All eyes were on him.

Therefore, the Golden Holy Wings' intelligence network began to operate quietly.

What could have turned into a head-on spy war confrontation turned into two parallel lines due to the misalignment.

As for Lin Shen, after he got the news, he simply did nothing.

[Yakura] Although she received the task she was assigned, she remained quiet.

Lin Shen was also at the headquarters, and spent several days hanging out with McCall and the others.

This provided the Golden Holy Wings’ intelligence network with sufficient time to investigate.

……

"Why are you still so idle?"

McCall lay on Lin Shen's body and asked lazily.

It's another morning.

"Are we not going to do anything?"

"It's not time for you to act yet."

Lin Shen's hands pinched dishonestly, feeling the silky skin like expensive silk.

His voice was also very lazy, lacking the sharpness of a battlefield commander.

Maybe it's because his sharpness has been worn away by Laffey and Ayanami around him.

"This battle...if you don't move, it's fine. If you move, the outcome is decided."

117. Action Begins

These past few days, Cheng Hufu and others have not been feeling well.

Although Lin Shen's movements have always been simple, he basically stayed at the headquarters of [Yakura] and never went out.

But they, the behind-the-scenes controllers of [Liuying], cannot stay in the luxurious mansion and enjoy themselves.

Decapitation tactics, as the tactical action that poses the greatest threat to commanders, cannot afford to be careless in the slightest.

If you are not careful, you risk losing your head.

Therefore, the five people's actions in the past few days have been very secretive.

No one knew where they were.

To be on the safe side, Cheng Hufu and others added two so-called "general commanders" to the original ones and sent them out to carry out normal activities as a smokescreen.

It can be said that he has reached the extreme of being shameless.

However, Lin Shen on the opposite side did not live up to the hard work of the people on Liuying's side.

Lin Shen didn't move at all.

[Sakura] was also quiet.

Originally, [Sakura] didn't have any intelligence department.

Even when gathering intelligence, one has to go through the military channel.

This is simply using the enemy's intelligence channels, and therefore does not pose any threat at all.

This time even this enemy channel was not used.

【Sakura】Didn’t do anything.

One or two days would be fine, but four or five days would just pass by.

It was the end of July.

The city guard felt a little restless.
