360: Chapter 29, Epic Victory_2 360: Chapter 29, Epic Victory_2 Politicians from all countries now wish to magnify their success tenfold, and who will ever dig deep into these details.
Once the battle is over, only the fleeting records on the mory Stone are left; no other evidence remains.
There are no prisoners.
A racial war is brutal; it’s either you die or I perish.
Any leniency results in catastrophic consequences.
Killing tens of thousands is not a big deal.
Orc cannon fodders are cheap, and elites killing cannon fodders is only expected, so such achievents are seen as a matter of course.
What truly deserves emphasis are the over four hundred corpses of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan on the battlefield.
They are from the Five Major Royal Families of the Orcs, and after so artistic processing of the data, the rit list shows that two thousand of the Orc Royal Family were captured.
Hudson is not exaggerating his achievents, these changes are purely a matter of diplomacy.
The nobles in Layton County Legion needs credit for their victories, so do the second-generation soldiers in the Moxi Army.
Even if the credit from these achievents, when divided, does not amount to much in terms of tangible rewards, it’s still decent material for boasting!
Killing countless Orc cannon fodders is less impressive than boasting about killing the Orc Royals.
If the cake is not enough to be divided, one can only attempt to make a bigger cake.
With these bodies confirming the tale, it is much more convincing than simple boasting.
As for the scarcity of carcasses from the Orc Royal Family, who stipulated that a corpse could only appear once on the mory Stone?
Turn it over, change the angle, add another stab…
it can be recorded again.
As long as it appears roughly the sa, it just needs to be convincing enough to be publicized.
This kind of “small” exaggeration of data is beneficial for everyone, be it the frontline soldiers or the politicians and bureaucrats in the rear.
“These are the final combat achievents.
In the daylight battle, we defeated thirty thousand of the Orc Army and cut down eleven thousand three hundred and sixty-seven heads.
We killed six thousand Orc Wolf Cavalry, of which two thousand one hundred and twenty-four were from the Silver Moon Wolf Clan, and we killed nurous Orc officers…
We captured eight hundred broadswords, five hundred warhamrs, one hundred shields…
The detailed battle report is on this parchnt paper, you can all take a look!
If there are no issues, we can all co-sign and submit it.”
Said Hudson, expressionless.
Falsifying battle achievents, his heart was slightly turbulent.
Originally Hudson disliked those who fake their achievents, but now he had no choice, he had beco the very person he despised.
If all goes as planned, after this battle report is submitted, it will be further exaggerated.
So nas not on the credit list will be added, and so nas will even be placed in front of Hudson.
Right or wrong doesn’t matter; everything to et the needs of reality.
The Duchy of Moxi needs an uplifting victory, and so does the Expeditionary Army.
These achievents, despite being halved by Hudson, are still satisfying for everyone.
After all, even boasting needs to consider the reality.
If you boast too much, the boast becos buffoonery.
Capturing two thousand Orc Royals is acceptable to the outside world, any more and the deception will be exposed.
Seeing everyone laughing and cheering, Hudson’s tone suddenly changed, saying with a serious look:
“Although we don’t know what happened at the front line, the appearance of so many Orc troops here and our lack of notice on this is abnormal.
We are a guest army and have limited knowledge of the terrain at the front line.
Where could so many armies have co from without being detected by the guards?”
Facing this question, like an interrogation of conscience, the originally excited second-generation soldiers’ faces beca grim.
This is not just a problem.
It is a big problem.
“There must be so damn slackers on the front line.
With so many Orc Armies crossing the border, it is impossible for the guards not to know!”
Rakel said furiously.
This ti they were lucky to have joined the Layton County Legion in providing reinforcent on the front line.
If they were to act alone, forget about fighting for credit, even their lives would be at risk.
To not pursue it any further, Hudson did not bother to involve himself in the Moxi internal affairs.
Whether subsequent responsibilities are pursued is up to the Moxi People.
If it wasn’t for a common enemy, he wouldn’t bother bringing it up.
…
Dapesh at late night was under curfew.
Aside from the sparse patrols, there were hardly any figures on the big streets.
A battle report from the front line suddenly broke the silence of the city.
“Victory report!”
“Victory report!”
…
The boisterous voices echoed all the way into the royal palace, waking King Chris the Ninth from his slumber.
Chris the Ninth, however, was not angry at having his dreams interrupted, but instead, a broad smile lit up his face.
“A report of victory”, this was a rare and precious thing.
Ever since the fall of Augustusburg, he had been surrounded by bad news.
Even his sleep was restless, fearing that the Orcs might attack once he woke up.
The lords and ministers were also hastily getting out of bed to convene in the royal palace at the fastest pace possible.
According to the customs of the Moxi Duchy, if a ssage was conveyed with such grandeur, it must an that a significant victory had been achieved on the frontlines.
Lesser triumphs that resulted in only hundreds or thousands of beheaded Orcs would directly be sent to the Military Departnt.
They can report it the next day during office hours; there’s no need for such a spectacle.
…
“The joint report of the Newly Compiled 23rd Legion and the Alpha Kingdom’s Layton County Legion reports that they encountered a thirty thousand strong Orc army during the day, and achieved a considerable victory.
The battle scenes recorded on the mory Stone are already reviewed by .
The Alpha Kingdom’s elite forces truly live up to their reputation.
Their combat prowess is formidable.
Despite equal numbers, they severely damaged an Orc Wolf cavalry during a head-on charge.
Witnessing a thousand cavalryn chasing thousands of Orc Wolf cavalryn stirred the blood in my veins.
Of course, the performance of our newly ford Twenty-Third Army was not bad either.
They confronted the enemy’s wolf cavalry head-on and stopped their breakout, resulting in the most glorious victory since the beginning of the war!”
Looking at the beaming smile on King Chris the Ninth’s face, everyone knew that the spoils were imnse.
However, after hearing his explanation, they were left dumbfounded.
They could accept the fact that the Layton County Legion was capable of fighting.
It would be a problem if the elite forces couldn’t fight.
But what about the Newly ford Twenty-Third Army?
Were they not acutely aware of its strength?
Right from the beginning, everyone had labelled this “Second Generation Glittering Camp” as: a troupe that roams the battlefield, and then hurriedly retreats to recuperate.
It wasn’t just a lack of confidence in the soldiers of the Newly ford Twenty-Third Army.
They just knew their own younger generation too well.
They simply were not cut out to lead an army.
If not for the conscription system of the Duchy, they would never let these unreliable fellows onto the battlefield.
And what’s the king telling them now?
The survival of the newly ford Twenty-Third Army left a group of parents puzzled.
Pri Minister Hercheg was the most befuddled, as he was perfectly aware of his own son’s abilities.
His son was well-versed in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling.
But in terms of leading an army and fighting, he was a complete dimwit.
“Your Majesty, the Newly ford Twenty-Third Army and the Layton County Legion were on their way to the front lines.
How could they have encountered a thirty thousand strong Orc army?
Even if the Orcs brazenly bypassed our border fortresses and penetrated deep into our territory with their isolated army, surely our Border Guards wouldn’t be clueless about it!”
Pri Minister Hercheg asked with defiance.
When it ca to his own son, he had to stand up for him.
Before the news spread, even if there were so issues, there was still room for maneuvering.
But if the report’s content was published and then soone discovered that they had fabricated their military rits, they could kiss all hope goodbye.
Given what he knew about these dynastic successors, it was not beyond the realm of possibility that they might kill a few Orcs and then call for a great victory.
“Rest assured, Chancellor!
The exciting battles recorded on the mory Stone and the myriad corpses of Orcs scattered across the battlefield, cannot be faked.
The only possible exaggeration might be in the number of enemies killed.
I have personally watched the recordings on the mory Stone.
Even if there is a discrepancy in the number of enemies slaughtered, the error margin will not be too large.”
Speaking up to this point, the smile on King Chris the Ninth’s face gradually solidified.
If the report was true, it ant that there was a problem on the frontlines.
The appearance of tens of thousands of Orc armies in the heartland of our kingdom and the failure of the Border Guards to report it constitutes a significant accident.
This ti they were lucky, having the Alpha Kingdom’s reinforcents take charge and annihilate this intruding isolated army.
Otherwise, tens of thousands of Orc armies could cause enough destruction in the heartland of the Alpha Kingdom to overturn earth and sky.
“Send orders to ticulously investigate the incident of the Orc army’s infiltration at the front lines.
We must make soone accountable for this incident.
Regardless of who is implicated, they must be seriously dealt with.
I hope that sothing like this does not happen for a second ti.
As for the adjudication of the rits of the Newly ford Twenty-Third Army and the Layton County Legion, the Military Departnt must discuss it with Prince Caesar as soon as possible and yield results in the shortest possible ti.
The kingdom needs a grand victory!”
