What's wrong with a lord daddy who just wants to draw cards?

Chapter 309-308- Declaration of Independence
"In other words, 60% of the imperial army on the front line suddenly returned to the royal city. The remaining 18% could not stop the alliance army, and another [-]% of the [-] army was lost. Only [-] of the [-]-strong army were left. Wan is still on the battlefield?"

The Alliance army that came to Selinya was defeated and lost their armor. After returning, Domi immediately convened a meeting with all high-level figures, including the imperial army generals and the Lord of Selinya.

Da da da--

In front of the elegant and noble long black log table, Duomi's index finger hit the table time and time again. His clear and translucent voice echoed in the conference room of the City Lord's Mansion. His cold eyes seemed to kill the soul of the person he saw.

Considering the absolute dominance Domi showed just now, no one dared to say a good word for the weak imperial army at this time.

Everyone can sense how dissatisfied Lord Dominic is now. Not to mention that the Empire has abruptly turned the balance of power into a disadvantage. Even the Sword of the Kingdom has lost nearly [-]% of its troops in this unnecessary 'farce'.

One thousand five hundred battle-hardened and loyal elite warriors, if they die like this, everyone will feel sad.

In order to prevent Domi from getting too angry, Sia stood behind him and squeezed his shoulders, trying to ease his anger.

"Gentlemen, can anyone explain to me what happened to the [-]% of the Imperial Army that made them cowards who fled the battle?"

The general of the Imperial Army at the scene, the middle-aged general who was rescued by Domi, corrected:
"Sir, they are just following the orders from above, they are not cowards."

"The enemy is currently running away, and they still use a high-sounding reason like 'order'. Isn't this a deserter or a coward?"

The general was speechless and simply stopped talking. It would be nice to just be an ostrich...

Regarding Domi's problem, Lord Selinya, who was sitting first on Domi's right, probably knew best. He cleared his throat and said:

"Your Excellency, you don't know. Ever since Emperor Burton passed away and Queen Nadiavida took over the throne, the four princes and princesses in the royal city have been fighting openly and secretly for the throne."

"Almost [-]% of the imperial troops temporarily deployed this time are under the factions of the three princes. At first, His Highness the Crown Prince wanted to send troops to suppress the chaos in the royal city, but the other two princes probably did not think so... "

At this point, the city lord stopped talking and stopped talking. Everyone knew that he was just the city lord of a small border fortress city after all.

Then Shia took up the topic, and a pleasant voice came from behind Domi:
"The two royal brothers were probably worried that he would use this reason as a cover to force them to withdraw from the competition for the throne with arms. In order to protect themselves and check and balance the royal brother Alfred, they mobilized their respective direct armies."

"A ridiculous arms race..." Domi's summary was so appropriate that everyone present could not help but nod in agreement.

"For this reason, the empire lost half of the country that countless soldiers fought with their lives and blood for no reason. I also lost [-] brave warriors."

"Ha ha……"

Domi leaned back on the high chair and laughed.

This laughter was so sarcastic at this moment, as if mocking the group of idiots who were in the royal city but only knew how to hold back the entire empire.

"Those princes who only have the throne in their minds can fight, but if the rulers of the royal city continue to command the army so unclearly and downplay the status of the generals, the empire will collapse sooner or later."

"Rather than letting those guys who hide behind and sit back and relax continue to squander the empire's precious vitality, it's better for me to direct the battle on my behalf."

"Ok??"

"what?!"

"???"

Everyone sitting on the right side of the conference table shouted out and showed shocked expressions.

On the other hand, the people sitting on the left did not speak, but looked very calm.After all, it was Aurora, Areia, Aflanslot and the others who were absolutely trusting of Domi, at least more trustworthy than those in the Royal City.

"No... Sir, if you want to command the battle on behalf of the royal nobles, you must first have the relevant orders and authorization..." The general who knew the imperial military system well advised that Domi's idea was indeed a bit whimsical.

"Authorization?" Duomi leaned forward, crossed his hands in front of his mouth, and looked at the general with eyes as sharp as swords:

“Without their authorization, the Empire would not have lost the lands it had finally conquered.

The moment failure strikes, their authorization is no longer valid, and no one will obey the orders of the person who created the failure.

Generals will lead students, there is a saying that——

Those who are capable will be promoted, those who are excellent will be rewarded, those who are mediocre will be demoted, and those who are inferior will be eliminated.

You useless guy, just get out of there. Next, I will control the entire battlefield! "

A statement that would shock the entire empire in the future appeared.

……

Considering that only one city in the entire front, Selinya, has defended the Alliance's attack, if they continue to stay, they may face the dilemma of being surrounded.

Therefore, after evacuating the people in the city, Domi and the others voluntarily abandoned Selinya and retreated to the rear of the Funeral Plains with the empire's large forces, which was equivalent to giving up a portion of the empire's original territory.

The dissatisfaction of the citizens of the empire has accumulated to the extreme. The original call for violent suppression of the conquered areas has naturally transformed into 'change the leaders and regain the lost territory! ', and even a lively street parade was staged in Jiutou in three days. The rulers of the royal city were extremely annoyed by this but there was nothing they could do about it...

At this time, on the front line, in the city lord's palace in the largest city on the edge of the Funeral Plains, 'Xigno', a grand meeting attended by all the generals and nobles on the front line was being held.

The purpose of this meeting was very clear, to discuss how to regain the Empire's lost territory and check and balance the rising Alliance forces.

Domi and Shia, one being a noble of the Blofeld family and the boss of Kingdom Sword, and the other being an empire princess, were naturally invited.

The large circular conference room was filled with generals or senior generals wearing black iron-blooded military uniforms and a few nobles.

In the center of the ring is a round, high-light podium, and the rest is pitch black.

Domi and Shia were sitting in the row closest to the podium, listening to the noble man from the Cumberbatch family on the podium talking about the situation of the war. It seemed that as long as they did what he said, the empire would win the Six Nations Alliance. Just a simple little thing.

"Oh, he's just a dark rat who believes in perfectionism and money supremacy."

A middle-aged general beside Domi didn't bother to speak.

Duomi could almost see that this guy was an obvious profiteer. More than half of his plans were related to land transactions and money, and he didn't care about victory at all.

Add Cumberbatch's surname, and it's not difficult to see.

"Are the Cumberbatch family members so disgusting..."

Sia tilted her head: "Why do you say that?"

"Because there is a guy named Wilcost Cumberbatch who is also a disgusting swordsman."
