Sitting in the conference room, Sean was far more tired than he looked.

It was late at night, and there was no light in the room, but it was not dark.

The soft glow spreads throughout the room, illuminating the room as if it were daytime.

The unknown object Gollum was suspended in mid-air at this time, swaying from side to side from time to time, as if it was drunk. The previous period of sleep seems to have allowed it to gain some new powers, but it has not been able to exert these powers well, so in fact, there is no obvious improvement in Sean's combat effectiveness, basically most of the time, Sean uses this as a light bulb.

The results are outstanding.

At this time, nearly half a month has passed since Asuna came to Void City before, and the Ryan Southeast Expeditionary Force composed of her, Duke Hatch and Marquis of Byrne has officially started, and it should have just left Tinchiin Territory in terms of time.

At this time, on the conference table in front of Sean, there was a battle report.

The content of this battle report is very simple, to put it simply, the Ryan Southeast Expeditionary Force, which had just left Tinchiin's territory, annihilated the Dabiang garrison led by Tingchiin, which was another heavy loss for Hela.

The most powerful place in the Kingdom of Dabion is not the southeastern region, which is constantly at war with the Kingdom of France, but the southern region, which has experienced Asuna's invasion before. Because of this war, the nobles in the southern region frantically developed their military strength like nouveau riche, which led to a total of 400,000 private soldiers in the entire southern region, which is almost half of the standing army of the entire kingdom, and half more than the private soldiers of the nobles in the southeast who have been at war with the French kingdom all year round.

However, this strong military power has also taken a sharp turn for the worse due to the rebellion of the Boulder family and the Dubai family.

With only 250,000 in the first place, the southern nobles of Dabion would not be too embarrassed, and it would not be a problem to regain the lost territory or even counterattack under the fortress of Tonys. But it's a bit of a thing. Because of all kinds of accidents, it has now also caused Dabion's southern nobles to fall into a situation of powerlessness - they watched Sean's strength expand and grow stronger, but they were helpless at all.

Now in the southern theater, Hella can be said to have no advantage at all, on the contrary, it is even in a dilemma.

Of course, the situation that caused it today was the result of this battle report in front of Sean.

He knew that this was a favor from the Boulder family.

And this favor, he still has to admit it.

Originally, Hela had a total force of 250,000 troops, and the general trend she formed at that time was simply unstoppable. It can be said that Sean was completely cornered. It's just that, for some reason, she didn't eliminate Sean with this thunderous momentum, but gave Sean a chance to breathe. In this way, through the mercenary of mercenary groups and the rapid development of military power. Coupled with William's almost targeted tactical strikes, Sean swallowed up nearly 70,000 of Hela's troops in a cannibalizing manner.

Of course his own losses. It's just as devastating.

Aldolf's Motorized Infantry Regiment, Stalin's 1st Corps, Nock's 2nd Corps, and Rena's 1st Cavalry Regiment. All four of these troops fought to the ground, and even Stalin was seriously wounded. However, fortunately, because of the timely appearance of the Steel Wings, they successfully broke through the blockade that Hela tried to lay and successfully rescued Stalin back to the Steel Wings training base, plus Reina's return. At least for now, the rear of the Panda Territory near the Gap Rift is completely safe.

The only unfortunate thing is that the Kiraf Territory and the Burbice Territory, which were finally able to gain an advantage and even almost recapture, fell into the hands of Hela again. And this time, the reinforcements to these two parts are no longer the previous 70,000 troops that were used as cannon fodder by Hella from the beginning. Rather, it is an army that has truly gone through countless battles.

But again, Hela's losses were not light.

The Second Cavalry Regiment in her hands was dealt a near-devastating blow to the Storm Bear Legion, coupled with the loss of 10,000 Fourth Legion soldiers in the Tinchiin Domain, and the battle situation reported by the battle report that Sean had just received, Hela also failed to recapture the Tinchiin Territory and the Dayi Territory, and even put the Yedby Leader, who had managed to gain a foothold, into a precarious situation.

Today, Sean still has a total of 70,000 troops, of which 40,000 are from six mercenary groups, but the overall combat strength is still intact, and the army located near Void City alone has reached 60,000. On the other hand, Hela, in addition to the 60,000 troops that are already attacking the Tequila Territory, there are only 80,000 troops left in her hands that can still be used, of which less than 40,000 are left in the Yedby Territory, and the other 40,000 are to defend the Burbice Territory and the Kiraf Territory.

And the result of all this is the passage of the Ryan Southeast Expeditionary Force led by Tinchiin. If it weren't for the annihilation of all the 30,000 troops that Duke Hatch had arranged for Hella in the Tinchiin Territory, Hela would have relied on the blockade line of the Tinchiin Territory and the Yederby Territory, the Burbis Territory and the Kiraf Territory, which would be enough to completely block Sean's strategic intention to go south, and continue to strategically suppress Sean, and even isolate Asuna and others who had already gone south to prepare to open up the southeast theater.

Once Hella continues to occupy such an advantage, even William will be powerless.

And now, Hela's momentum has been shattered.

Sean doesn't know much about the style of the top 10 generals, but he knows very well what the strengths and weaknesses of the lower ones are.

Like William, this guy's overall view is much weaker than the other ten generals, and even in the strategic competition, he is slower than the others, but if it involves the tactical policy, William is often able to formulate a very targeted strike in an instant, so as to achieve a major advantage on the local battlefield. And Willian is also better at defending and counter-attacking tactics than attacking, no matter how difficult the situation, he can always find a place to live and grow like a weed.

As for Hela, the woman who ranks seventh on the list of famous generals, she is precisely a general who is the complete opposite of William.

This kind of contrast is not to say how aggressive she is, but to say that she has a very long-term view of the overall strategic situation. What she is best at is that kind of silent layout. Then, by the time the opponent realizes the seriousness of the problem, Hela's general trend has already been formed, and in this case, any tactics, tricks, and conspiracies have all been rendered useless.

However, Hela's shortcomings are also very obvious and fatal.

That is, if her general trend is cracked before it is completely perfected, then she will fall into a fatal void. In other words, Hela is not good at tactics, so she can't come up with a plan to make up for it the moment someone breaks the game, and she rarely comes up with a complete backup plan to make a replacement. This is the reason why HeLa can only rank seventh.

Among the ten generals, the sixth position. It's a very clear watershed.

Sean's gaze froze slightly, and his feet that had been on the table were also retracted, and then stood up.

At this moment, Sean's body exuded an extremely fierce momentum, like a sharp sword that had been unsheathed: "It's time to make an end." ”

It seems to feel Sean's momentum. Gollum flew down from mid-air and landed on Sean's left shoulder. Rubbing Sean's cheek affectionately. He reached out and gently rubbed Gollum's head at the point where he didn't know if it was his head. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, which made the awe-inspiring momentum on his body a little softer.

There was a knock on the door.

However, the person outside the door did not wait for Sean's answer before opening the door and entering.

It's William.

Although he is not good at any martial arts, as a peerless general who is qualified to stand on the list of ten generals, his momentum will never be inferior to any strong man. In the same way, the sense of momentum will naturally be very keen. He just glanced at Sean, a flash of surprise in his eyes, and then returned to a calm like spring water, and Bannock stood outside the door. The Barrier Paladin, who had been following William since he returned with Sean, gently closed the door at this time.

"Make a decision?" When the door to the conference room closed, William finally spoke in a deep voice.

"Yes." Sean nodded, "These days, you and Neil have worked hard, I know that the backlash from the Dao Chamber of Commerce Alliance must have caused you a lot of trouble." ”

If the Chamber of Commerce Alliance would keep quiet in the Gray Shadow Black Market, then it would not be a pan-continental Chamber of Commerce alliance that could deter the Seven Empires. It's just that even if they have the intention to find trouble with Sean, they are powerless in a short period of time, so they can only interfere through some diplomatic means and public opinion, but at this time, the war between the Principality of Lane and the Kingdom of Dabion has completely broken out, and the influence of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance will be minimized accordingly, plus Sean is now one of the commanders of the three major theaters of the Principality of Lane, and his logistics supply does not need to worry at all, all of this will be fully responsible for the Principality of Lane.

"It's fine." William was noncommittal, "After we imposed a complete blockade, those guys couldn't create any chaos in our territory, and it was their biggest mistake to turn against us and withdraw from our territory in the first place." ”

Sean smiled, and did not continue to say anything on this topic, but said: "Order the whole army, the war has officially begun." We must end the fighting in the southern theater of operations in two months, and then go south to reinforce Asuna. The longer it drags on, the more difficult it will be for the Southeast Theater Expeditionary Force, which is isolated in Tequila. ”

Hearing Sean's words, William's brows furrowed slightly: "Two months, time is too urgent, it is impossible for us to end the matter in the Southern War Zone." ”

"There's no need to worry about that." Sean whispered, "I'm going to organize a force and go directly behind enemy lines to capture Hela." The other side has lost Hela, the commander, so you should be able to end the war in two months, right? ”

"If that's the case, it's possible, but the casualties will be very high." William didn't think about it and said, "You also know that the military strength here in the Southern Theater is much stronger than we imagined, so no matter what we do, the casualties will be very heavy." ”

"So, let's get Sephanio ready for war."

Hearing this, William's face finally showed a look of shock.

As Sean's confidant, and also responsible for all the military strength under Sean's command, he knows very well what the two hole cards Sean has hidden so far are.

Shefanio and the hundred-member priesthood under her command who have now officially formed a scale are one of the two hole cards that Sean did not open, no matter how bad the war situation was before, Sean did not have the idea of using this hole card. Because according to William's previous understanding of Sean, his hole card was obviously intended to be used in the case of a war with the main army of the Kingdom of Dabiang, but at this moment, it was about to be opened so soon, how could William not be shocked?

And Sean, who seemed to have guessed William's thoughts, just smiled slightly, and then said: "Asuna has already paid a lot for us, it's time for us to make some returns, at least let Asuna know that she will never look away from our investment." ”

The corners of William's mouth lifted slightly.

When he admires Sean, he appreciates Sean's humanity. If this was not the case, William would not have followed Sean all the time, because he knew his strength very well, and if he really was just for a so-called command and command, he could have found a better and higher starting point than he is now, instead of following Sean from scratch from nothing.

"So, how do you get behind enemy lines to catch Hela?" William thought about it carefully, and after confirming that all the links he was responsible for would not go wrong, he finally asked a link that was not under his control but was very important, "Since it is already a war between the two countries, then all the borders must be blocked, so even if it is only a team of about ten people entering the kingdom of Dabiang, it will be strictly checked, if you want to capture the commander-in-chief of the other party alive, it is impossible not to have even ten people, right?" ”

"You don't have to worry about that." Sean smiled mysteriously, "I was contacted by someone from Haytham a few days ago, and they happened to have a project to test, so I decided to give them a little help. ”

William was stunned for a moment, he already knew what the project was, but he immediately retorted: "This is too dangerous!" ”

"War, how can it not be dangerous?" Sean said in a deep voice, "Since I am your lord, then I can't just stay behind and watch you die, this is not my style. Speaking of which, seeing that William still wanted to speak, Sean said directly without thinking about it: "I have made up my mind, you don't need to say any more, I have already prepared the candidates, just wait for Rena to come back and set off immediately." ”

Seeing Sean's tough attitude, William could only sigh helplessly: "Okay." ”

"Now, it's time to raise our flag." Sean turned around and looked out the window, with a look of excitement on his face, "In the future, we will no longer be an army without a belonging. …… You're all Sean. Connery's people! ”

That night, the Void City finally raised its first flag since its founding.

A flag painted with a pair of oddly shaped wings: a completely unfolded left wing and a fully integrated right wing.

It was the Wings of the Void that represented attack and protection!

It was the Wings of the Void that represented the Connery family!

That's what it means......

They will no longer be the wings of the Void of the Ownerless people!

Affiliated with Sean. Connery's banner is officially hoisted to the entire world world at this moment! (To be continued......)

PS: There is a mistake in the previous text, the Kingdom of France is in the southeast of the Kingdom of Dabion, not the northwest, and the previous mistake has been modified. Originally, this chapter was supposed to be updated yesterday, but because I thought it was too badly written, I deleted it, and I thought about it for a day, and I finally finished it today. …… As far as this chapter is concerned, it is actually of great significance to me, to Sean, and to this book. Finally, I sincerely hope that you will enjoy this chapter.
