"Oh God! Aren't they afraid of provoking a revolt from the civilians in doing so? An officer asked in shock.

"This should ... It's just to scare us, right? My lord, it's not that we're questioning you, but it sounds really... The other officer also said hesitantly.

"It's a fantasy, isn't it?" Carl answered.

Although he didn't speak, the officer's eyes had betrayed his thoughts.

"That's true." He smiled and nodded.

Everyone in the conference room breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone took this as a joke.

However, in the next second, Karl had a very bad smile on his face, and said to them with a smile: "I'd rather our intelligence officers were joking with me, but unfortunately this information is true." It's been confirmed, so I'm not kidding you. ”

After receiving Carl's confirmation, a group of people suddenly showed that the patient was looking at him as if he had heard the doctor announce that he had an incurable disease.

"My lord, this is really... Lu Xi looked at Carl with a wry smile on his face and said.

"I'm sorry, Major General Lu Xi. We are not gods and cannot predict what the next move of our enemies will be. Carl said sorry, but he didn't look at Lu Xi with any apology on his face and said.

"My lord, don't you mean to give all these people to that? . . Lu Xi looked at Carl with a hesitant expression and asked.

He knows exactly what his head of family will do to deal with it, but as a subordinate, he must defend his boss. Both in name and in fact.

"What's wrong? Major General Lu Xi? Do you now pity these slaves who have betrayed the Empire? Carl asked with a sudden smile.

"No, not really! Your Excellency, the lower officials are just worried about your reputation. Your reputation is already a bit unfavorable, so much so that the outside world has caused a lot of misunderstandings about you. But if you give all these nearly 2 million people to that in one go this time, your reputation will really be irretrievable! Major General Lu Xi discouraged.

Karl got up from his seat and walked in front of Lu Xi, he stared at the black eyes of the young man who was about the same age as himself, as if he wanted to see something different in his eyes.

The boy stared at Carl with an honest face, his black eyes full of sincerity and concern.

"But we have no choice, this is war. Major General Lu Xibelencaster, do you want to use the precious lives of the Imperial Marines to show my incompetence? Carl looked into Lu Xi's eyes and said slowly.

"Nope! By no means so! Your Excellency! Once the order is issued, you will be the one who bears the infamy of the butcher, the rebuke of His Majesty and the investigation of the military department! It's enough for us to take care of these dirty hands for you. You are one of the five Electors of the Empire, and you don't have to bear these stigma for us! Lu Xi also stood up, and he looked directly into Karl's eyes without giving in and said.

"Lu Xi, you...

"Lu Xi, how do you talk to the head of the family! Sit down yet! ”

"Major General Lu Xi, you have overstepped! Why don't you hurry up and apologize to the head of the house?! ”

“。。。。。。”

A group of officers hurriedly glanced at Lu Xi, and several people with higher ranks than him immediately scolded. They were afraid that Karl would dismiss Lu Xi in anger or something, so they all wanted to protect this usually popular colleague.

However, Lu Xi looked at Carl with a stiff neck, and continued to dissuade: "Lord of the family, this order must not be issued by you!" Even if it is to be released, it must be released by the lower officials or them. You are an Elector, you should be flawless, and there must be no stain on you! ”

"Tsk... Lu Xi, do you know that your current behavior is very transgressive? Carl looked at Lu Xi with interest and said.

"Even if you want to punish the subordinate for this, the subordinate still insists on his own concept!" Lu Xi said loudly to Carl.

"Hahaha! Interesting! It's so much fun! Lu Xi, you are the first subordinate who dared to talk to me like this in such a long time, except for Dinigfeld. Hahaha! Carl burst out laughing.

'It's over, Lu Xi is finished. The head of the family was already laughing angrily, and at this time, it was estimated that only the eldest lady could dissuade him. Everyone in the room looked at Carl laughing and couldn't help but think to himself.

Karl laughed for a while before stopping his laughter, he looked at Lu Xi and said in a slow but firm tone, "Thank you for your kindness, Major General Lu Xi." But this order must be given by me, and only by me. ”

He stretched out his hand and patted Lu Xi's almost girl-like slender shoulder, and then said meaningfully: "You can't give this kind of order, and you can't afford it." I am the only one who can afford it. Do you understand? Our dear Lu Xi children? Hehehehe~~~! ”

"But the head of the house!" Lu Xi wanted to say something more.

"Alright, that's all for this! Now it's time to assign tasks and give orders. Karl interrupted.

“。。。 Alas! Lu Xi looked at Carl and had to let out a helpless sigh.

"Actually, the next battle is both difficult and easy. The difficulty lies in the mix of nearly 2 million civilians on the other side, and the simple thing is that we don't really need to fight directly with these 2 million people. Karl said.

"We don't need to fight them directly? My lord, please forgive me for being stupid, didn't Your Majesty and the military department let us purge the entire Source Domain? If we don't fight them, how can we purge them? An officer asked, confused.

"That's a good question!" Karl complimented, and then asked rhetorically: "Then why do we consume our precious marines to clean up these armed riot slaves one by one, and fall into the vast sea of the so-called people's war?" ”

"But if we don't, how are we going to get rid of them?" The officer was even more confused.

"Quite simply, we don't have to fight all these riot slaves. I don't think even with the protection of a shield guard can withstand a human bomb in the face of rioters strapped to high-energy explosives, right? Karl asked.

"That's the truth, but my lord, according to our firepower, those riot slaves can't rush in front of us, right?" Another officer asked.

"What about street fighting? In the wilderness they certainly can't rush to it, but what about in the city? So we don't have to go city to city. Karl said.

Then he looked around, got up and ordered: "Order, except for the bandit leader Tedis Smollett and Lily Hathaway, who must see people in life and corpses in death, the rest of the riot slaves are all carried out by the Imperial Navy to carry out orbital bombing." After three days of carpet bombing, the Marines will carry out airborne operations! ”

"Yes! Your Excellency! The officers stood up.
