Chapter 1202 Twilight’s Decision?
Twilight wasn’t the only one looking for Ling Xiao. The military headquarters of the Federation and the other three divisions in the mission were looking for him too.
“General, there’s still no news of General Ling Xiao.” Jin Anlong walked into Qi Yaoyang’s office with a worried look.
“Don’t mind him. We’ll just focus on our own battle.” Qi Yaoyang wasn’t worried about Ling Xiao. He already had the assault plan in his hands. Unless Ling Xiao gave a new order, he would follow the plan ticulously. Thus, it didn’t matter if Ling Xiao was present or not.
“But the commander-in-chief of a war can’t just disappear like this.” Jin Anlong was anxious. He was used to having a commander-in-chief that constantly kept in touch with them.
“This is your first ti working with him so it’s understandable that you’ll feel uncomfortable. That little... I an, the general has always been like this. You’ll get used to it.” Qi Yaoyang laughed and patted Jin Anlong’s shoulder
Get used to it? How could he get used to it? He had been fighting wars for half his life but this was the first ti he t a commander-in-chief that disappeared in the middle of a war. Was this sothing a commander-in-chief should do? Shouldn’t he know that the people below would be worried?
“How’s our progress?” Qi Yaoyang noticed Jin Anlong’s silence. He knew that Jin Anlong wasn’t able to accept such an irresponsible commander-in-chief yet so he quickly changed the topic.
Jin Anlong gathered his senses and replied seriously, “Everything is going as planned. There are not many obstacles.”
However, rather than a smile he frowned as he continued, “However, I feel that this isn’t Twilight’s real strength.” He was happy that everything was going smoothly but at the sa ti, he was worried. This was a war that affected the survival of their nation. Shouldn’t they be fighting for their lives? Why wasn’t the Twilight army as powerful as he thought?
“Indeed.” Qi Yaoyang agreed with him.
Jin Anlong looked at him in surprise. He waited for his regint commander to explain his doubts
“I’ve fought with Twilight countless tis. I know deep down they’re as vicious and ruthless as us.” Qi Yaoyang didn’t have any good feelings towards Twilight. However, he had to admit that they were strong.
He turned on his optical supercomputer and a virtual screen appeared in front of them. The live-feed of the war at the frontline was displayed on the screen.
“There are five divisions fighting with us but besides the Shangye division, the other four divisions are actually all garrisons. They’re much weaker than an intergalactic division. Even though they seem stronger in numbers but their strength only equals up to two intergalactic divisions. It might be even lesser,” Qi Yaoyang said.
Jin Anlong nodded in agreent. This was why he felt uneasy. It was true that the Twilight Empire didn’t have as many intergalactic divisions as the Federation. However, there are still nine of them. However, only three of them appeared on the battlefield that determined the survival of their nation. The other two, Jinyou division and Puxian division, were fighting with the 13th division. The six rest divisions hadn’t appeared yet.
“I think that there is another intergalactic division hiding around us. They must be waiting for sothing.” Qi Yaoyang frowned. They must find this division soon.
“Are they guarding against the 23rd division? We have the 4th division at our rear. They might be worried about them too.” Jin Anlong took a guess.
“One intergalactic division and a few garrisons are enough to hold off the 4th division,” Qi Yaoyang replied. Twilight just had to leave one intergalactic division behind if they were really worried about the 4th division.
“But they don’t know that it’s the 4th division. They might think that they are the 23rd division.” Jin Anlong thought for a mont before continuing, “Maybe all the six remaining intergalactic divisions are hiding around us. They’re just waiting for the 23rd division to co out.”
“If Twilight thinks that the 23rd division is bringing up our rear, they will have two intergalactic divisions stationed here. The other two intergalactic divisions might be placed sowhere else so that they can attack the 4th division the mont it appears.” Qi Yaoyang pointed at two locations on the map.
Suddenly, he had an interesting idea entered his head. “What if they knew that the division bringing up the rear is the 4th division?”
“How is that possible?” Jin Anlong refuted. “Why not?” Qi Yaoyang stared at Jin Anlong.
Under Qi Yaoyang’s intent gaze, Jin Anlong started wavering. He struggled before replying, “Only the higher authorities know that the 23rd division and the 4th division had swapped their roles. They only knew about it after the war started so it hadn’t been too long. Twilight wouldn’t be able to get the intel so quickly. Yes, that’s right.”
The last sentence was to convince himself.
“What if soone purposely leaked the swap?” Qi Yaoyang asked calmly.
“Impossible!” Jin Anlong didn’t want to believe this.
“One of Twilight’s spies was able to beco a general of the Federation. What is impossible now?” Qi Yaoyang scoffed.
“What do you an?” Jin Anlong turned serious.
“We must think of the worst case scenario. If Twilight is aware that the 4th division is the one bringing up our rear and the 23rd division is the one that disappeared, what would they do?” Qi Yaoyang stared at the virtual screen and pondered carefully.
“They might leave an intergalactic division here to guard against the 4th division while sending the other five divisions to search for the 23rd division. Then, after the 23rd division gets found out, they will surround the 23rd division and swarm them.” Qi Yaoyang punched his desk. If he was the commander-in-chief of Twilight, this would be his plan. Once their enemy killed the commander-in-chief of the war and the idol of the Federation, they would easily win this war.
If the Federation were to attack Twilight again after that, Caesar wouldn’t allow them to as Twilight had proved their ability to Caesar by killing a prominent god-class cha master. Caesar would never abandon a reliable ally.
The morale of the military of the Federation would drop due to Ling Xiao’s death. The situation of the war might also spiral out of control, quickening the despair and destruction of the hearts and minds of the soldiers.
“Twilight isn’t giving their all because they are using their main force to find Ling Xiao and the 23rd division. I’m afraid that two of the three great cha lords have been sent to find Ling Xiao too,” Qi Yaoyang continued.
“What shall we do?” Qi Yaoyang’s analysis was too reasonable. Jin Anlong couldn’t help but worry.
“I don’t want to trouble King Muqi but based on the current situation, I need his help to lure the three great cha lords out!” Qi Yaoyang was decisive. He must stop the three great cha lords from finding Ling Xiao. That way, even if the five intergalactic divisions discovered him, Ling Xiao would be able to defeat them with his god-class cha.
