Terra Martial God and Merit System

"Get out of here."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Ake walked back to his companions.

They were unaware of Hamblin's camouflage show plan, but they were well aware of the cruelty of the battlefield.

They all held a pessimistic attitude towards the situation in Ursus.

"Count Hamblin... How long do you think he can last this time?"

Chapter 307: Count, Your Beard Is Crooked

The Terra Union has now completed the first phase of its combat mission and has pushed the battle line to the middle of Ursus, not too far from Fort Saint.

In order to complete the next phase of the combat goal of capturing Fort Saint, the Terra Union temporarily stopped the attack.

The large-scale offensive has stopped, but small-scale frictions continue.

After seizing power in parliament, Feodor began to expand his influence.

By combining kindness with force, many nobles succumbed to his tyranny.

After stabilizing the situation in the political center, the ambitious emperor turned his attention to the front line.

The general he appointed, the newly appointed Count Hamblin, was bedridden.

Judging from the battle record, the general suffered repeated defeats in large-scale battles.

Although his loyalty is commendable, his strength is indeed not that good.

So Feodor temporarily ignored the new count and turned to seek help from other forces.

Among the nobles he won over, several had the blood of the old nobles and were nobles who were awarded titles for their military merits.

Feodor commissioned them to lead the counterattack and promised them rewards after victory, including but not limited to large fiefdoms and higher titles.

These nobles led their team out of the city excitedly.

In their view, Kosice's defeat was simply because he was a traitor who deliberately ruined the army.

If I were in command...I would be able to defeat the opponent easily.

What? You mean Hamblin?

Although this person is very famous in the aristocratic circle and even in official propaganda, some old nobles still look down on him.

They are old aristocrats, and their ancestors have been generals for generations. They don't take this grassroots guy seriously, not to mention that Hamblin had suffered a defeat.

Before the expedition, many people clamored to let Hamblin see how real nobles fought.

Then.....

They all died.

All Ursus troops that attempted to attack and provoke on the front line suffered heavy losses.

The tactics of these people are stubborn and there are two former senior military commanders of Ursus in the Terra Union Army. It is easy to guess what these people are thinking.

Any of their actions were subject to speculation. In addition, these noble armies were the targets to be eliminated.

Therefore, the Terran United Army, which had been participating in the "performance" for a long time, finally showed its true fangs.

According to the survivors, the Terra Union was like evil spirits that crawled out of hell and devoured all of them.

Feodor was extremely disappointed that all the nobles who were entrusted with important tasks were wiped out.

Although according to intelligence, the Terra Union has a lot of novel equipment.

But...it was obvious that Hamblin was able to hold on and achieve smaller results in a stalemate.

How come everything is doomed when these old nobles with "outstanding military achievements" are replaced?

has a problem! There must be something wrong!

The families of these old nobles cried bitterly in front of him, but Feodor had a cold face.

In his opinion, there was something wrong with these guys.

Maybe he is having an affair with the Terra Union!

After making two mistakes in a row, Feodor began to suffer from paranoia.

In addition, although these nobles are all old nobles, their families have considerable wealth.

So Feodor issued an order, and all the titles of these noble families were stripped, and the whole family was sent to prison for "irresponsibility and deliberate defeat."

All property was naturally confiscated.

Most of this wealth was spent immediately by Fyodor.

He built fortifications outside Fort Saint, all of which were built according to the highest standards.

For Feodor, although the Fortress of the Holy Horse is a mobile city, he will never leave.

The glory of Ursus is here, and he who has finally obtained the imperial power cannot be accused of "escaping in a panic".

As a result, the area around Fort Saint became a huge construction site, with construction workers working everywhere, many of whom were temporarily conscripted laborers.

For the sake of victory in the war, Feodor no longer cares about so much. Since the Infected Persons Act makes it convenient for him to act, he must do it!

A large number of infected people were arrested and then sent to the construction site.

Although the fortifications were built very quickly under the supervision of the people day and night, if the Terra Union continued to attack, it would definitely not be completed now.

So the question is....Who should Feodor ask to temporarily stop the Terra Union?

----------

"I'm sorry... the envoy failed to welcome you... I... really... cough cough..." Hablin was lying on the bed, with a few more wrinkles on his face and his hair turned white. He looked very haggard, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

"Your beard is crooked," the adjutant reminded.

"Oh, okay." Hamblin quickly adjusted his beard.

"now what?"

"All right."

"The emperor finally remembered me... He is such a mean guy. This is a good move to retreat in order to advance." Hamblin touched his chin. "I was worried about those guys in Saint Steed Castle, but I didn't expect this idiot to just give them all away. He also killed their entire family."

"Hehe...I guess he is the only one who has the final say in Saint Jun Castle now. Although he holds great power, no one dares to jump out to help him."

"It's unpopular..." the adjutant also sighed. "But I heard that the person sent by the emperor this time is not an ordinary person."

"No matter what happens, I have the final say on the battlefield." Hamblin said in high spirits.

"The messenger is coming..." a whispered report came from outside the house.

"Ouch~" Hamblin's body softened and he immediately fell down, "cough cough..."

"Let him in..."

"I am Gilberto, the court secretary. I have come to announce this in accordance with His Majesty's instructions..."

A man with a serious expression walked into the room, "Count Hamblin..."

"Oops...sorry...cough cough...I feel really bad..."

"If it's not possible, there's no need to force it." Gilberto advised, "Your Majesty has given an order."

"If your majesty gives the order, I will fully support it!" Hamblin coughed twice and said weakly.

"Count Hamblin is now appointed as the commander-in-chief of the First War Zone of Ursus, in charge of..." Gilberto announced loudly.

"I..." After reading this, Hamblin started coughing violently.

"Mr. Earl..." The adjutant immediately went over and touched his back, "Is it serious?"

"No...no..." Hamblin raised his hand, the white handkerchief in his hand was already stained with blood.

His eyes were firm, and then he gradually raised his head.

"I am just a broken body... I can contribute to the empire..."

"I will turn my broken body into a raging fire! I will not refuse!"

"Your Excellency is so righteous!" Gilberto praised. "Since you are so weak and want to take over, I will not hesitate to sacrifice myself. This time when I take over, I will always be by your side!"

"Ah?" Hablin was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Envoy... the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly..."

"That's fine!" Gilberto waved his hand. "Since you have the ambition to sacrifice your life for your country, how can you not have the will to not fear life and death?"

"Your Excellency is wrong! I have made up my mind."

"Okay..." Hamblin sighed, "Once you're on the battlefield, it won't be up to you..."

"what?"

"No... ahem... sorry... I'm not feeling well..."

Chapter 308: Why did you betray me?!

"In that case, I'll take my leave now." Gilberto left the room.

Hamblin raised his brows, reached out and took off his fake beard.

"This guy still wants to follow me? Could it be that the dog emperor discovered something?" he pondered.

"Not really. Maybe the emperor is suspicious. That's why he sent someone to supervise the army." The adjutant guessed, "We haven't been exposed, otherwise the other party would have sent someone to kill us long ago."

"If that's the case, then there's no problem." Hamblin crossed his arms. "I don't want to keep pretending like this. Sooner or later I'll be exposed. I have to find a way to get rid of this guy!"

"If they get to the front, just capture them and shoot them," the adjutant suggested. "Just say they were killed by a shell. There will be no evidence!"

"This is too coincidental." Hamblin shook his head, "And this person's identity is not simple."

"The title of city lord... was conferred by this secretary on behalf of the emperor."

"City Lord?!" The adjutant was shocked. "Is there such a thing?"

"Not only that." Hamblin continued, "He also participated in the 'trial' of the city lord. In the end, most of the people who participated in the trial died, and he was the only one who returned to the Saint Steed Castle alive."

"The city lord must have kept him here for a reason. We can't just kill him casually."

"What should we do?" The adjutant sighed, "If he really goes up there and is still so conscientious in his duties, our trick will probably be exposed soon."

"That's true." Hamblin stroked his chin, "Let me think about it... Also, record this matter and bring it to the general."

........

The news of Hamblin's release from confinement alarmed many people.

Many people had hope for this rising and falling star.

Feodor attached great importance to Hablin.

If the enemy can stop the Terra Union, they will have enough time to build permanent fortifications. Then, with the fortifications behind them, they will have the confidence to face the Terra Union.

On the way to the front line, Hamblin was in a "paralyzed" state and refused to see anyone, claiming to be sick.

It was not until he arrived at the front that he woke up and began to handle affairs.

At the same time, he finally thought of a way to deal with Gilberto.

"If Gilberto dies, the emperor will definitely suspect me," Hamblin said to his adjutant.

"Whether he really died on the battlefield or because of our actions, the blame is all on me."

"But...what if the person who took the blame disappeared?"

"Sir...what do you want to say?" The adjutant was stunned for a moment and then asked.

"Ursus' great savior! Imperial Count Hamblin, unfortunately died while commanding the war at the front line." Hamblin pointed at himself, "The accompanying court secretary was also killed."

"However, in times of crisis, there are always people willing to step forward." He reached out and patted his adjutant on the shoulder, "You! In the critical moment, you took the initiative to attack and repelled the Terra Union army..."

"Well, everything remains the same. Only I am dead and Gilberto is dead too."

"This... is indeed a brilliant plan." The adjutant thought for a moment, "You are all dead, there is no evidence... the emperor can't say anything either."

"Uh...I can't be an adjutant, it's better to forge one..."
